Okay, then Zhongjun, let's see if this Qin Kingdom will win, or the Xiang family will win! Qi Xiaobai said with a laugh.

"The old man has won!" Guan Zhong looked at Qi Xiaobai and said, Guan Zhong is very confident in himself, he believes that he will definitely win this bet.

Qi Xiaobai didn't say anything, and then looked at everyone: "Ministers, is there anyone else who wants to play anything?" ”

And Guan Zhong clenched his fists and said: "Wei Ying wants to succeed Emperor Jin Hui, and the invitation has been sent to us, don't you know if we are going to congratulate?" ”

"We are orthodox in Kyushu, in this world, we should be an empire in our Qi country, he Wei Ying is the emperor, what does this regard as my Qi country? Dare us to congratulate, I really don't know whether to live or die! Qi Xiaobai said coldly.

"Then I will refuse them!" Guan Zhong said lightly.

And Qi Xiaobai stretched out his hand and slowed down: "Now we can't make trouble for the Jin Kingdom, so we still have to send people to this coronation ceremony for Wei Ying." ”

"I don't know, who is Your Majesty going to send?" Guan Zhong looked at Qi Xiaobai and asked.

Qi Xiaobai thought about it, wondering who would be the better messenger, and then Qi Xiaobai looked at Zou Ji, who had been silent in the court: "Zou Aiqing, I don't know if you want to replace the widow and go to Daliang to participate in the coronation ceremony of Wei Ying?" ”

Zou Ji was stunned for a moment, and there was some abuse in his heart, he finally came back from Zhao State, and he hadn't rested for a few days, and His Majesty actually asked him to go to Daliang of Wei State.

Zou Ji wanted to refuse, but looking at Qi Xiaobai's eyes that trusted him, how could he postpone it? If it is postponed, I am afraid that I will immediately be put on the hat of inaction and dismissed from my post.

Although Zou Ji does not like to be an official very much, if he does not become an official at this time, it is not that he can sue the old man and return to his hometown to retire, but he will be deprived of his position and suppressed by various colleagues.

Zou Ji looked at Qi Xiaobai and said, "Since Your Majesty trusts me very much, how can I postpone it?" ”

"Your Majesty, the minister is willing to go to Daliang to participate in this coronation ceremony of Wei Ying!" Zou Ji looked at Qi Xiaobai and said.

Qi Xiaobai looked at Zou Ji, nodded with satisfaction, and then said: "When this thing is done, the widow will definitely reward you well!" ”

"One of the principles of widowhood is that those who work hard and do things cannot be allowed to suffer a little loss!" Qi Xiaobai looked at Zou Ji and said.

Zou Ji was on the side, so he could only laugh helplessly, and then Qi Xiaobai asked again if there was anything else to say.

This time there was nothing to do, and this long court meeting was over.

After the court meeting, Qi Xiaobai also had to participate in the cabinet meeting of Qi State.

Because the war of the Zhao State is over, the Kyushu Continent will inevitably be stable for a while, but the Qi State is not very stable.

Because the territory of Qi is not only the territory of the Kyushu mainland, but also many foreign territories.

Qi Xiaobai came to the cabinet, looked at the fold in his hand, and then said: "My overseas materials have been robbed by pirates many times, everyone, I don't know who you found out who is the person who robbed my Qi country's materials?" ”

These cabinet ministers, you look at you, I look at me, and then at this time Tian Ji stood up and said: "Your Majesty, according to the intelligence, it was the Sulu State that did it!" ”

"The country of Sulu? What kind of country is this? This is the first time I've heard of it! Qi Xiaobai looked at these cabinet ministers and said.

"Let the ministers explain the country of Sulu to Your Majesty!" At this time, Guan Zhong stood up and said.

Qi Xiaobai nodded and asked Guan Zhong to explain the Sulu Kingdom to him.

In these days, all the materials for Qi Xiaobai's overseas trade were robbed in the ocean, and once they were snatched away, Qi Xiaobai would not care, after all, the sea is so big, it is normal to have pirates, but he has been robbed more than ten times in a row, and Qi Xiaobai can't sit still this time.

Dare to treat himself as a fat sheep, and send money to this group of pirates every day, so Qi Xiaobai, who has not cared about it, asked his subordinates and the cabinet to find out who took away his materials.

Among these looted materials, there are not only Qi Xiaobai's materials, but also some treasury silver taels.

From the beginning of the investigation to the present, after three months, it was possible to find out who did it, which made Qi Xiaobai a little happy.

After all, if you know who stole your money, find them when the time comes, and let them spit it out.

"The country of Sulu, one of the members of the Grand Alliance of Asian Islands, is located in the southern part of our Qi country!" Guan Zhong looked at Qi Xiaobai and said.

"The country of Sulu? In the meaning of Xiangguo, who is the person who robbed my Qi country's materials, I don't know if it is found out or not? Qi Xiaobai looked at everyone and asked.

At this time, Guan Zhong stood up and said, "I haven't judged who did it yet!" ”

"But are you sure that the people of Sulu did it?" Qi Xiaobai looked at Guan Zhong and said.

Guan Zhong nodded simply, estimating Qi Xiaobai's plan in his heart, he couldn't guess what Qi Xiaobai was going to do.

Guan Zhong nodded: "The matter on the intelligence is accurate, it was done by the Sulu State, and the mastermind of this robbery of materials, in the opinion of the ministers, there may be the official participation of the Sulu State!" ”

Qi Xiaobai nodded, then looked at Guan Zhong and asked, "I don't know if this Sulu country is strong?" ”

"Your Majesty, the country of Sulu is a poor country, and in order to survive, many people in their country of Sulu have become pirates!" Guan Zhong looked at Qi Xiaobai and said.

"I can understand how to be a pirate in order to survive, but unfortunately they provoked me and robbed me of my supplies!" Qi Xiaobai snorted coldly.

Qi Xiaobai looked at Wei Dexian on the side and said, "The secret guard is in Sulu Country, but there are people?" ”

Wei Dexian's face was full of embarrassment: "This Sulu country does not have our secret guard!" And he muttered to himself, Do you know where this Sulu country is?

Qi Xiaobai looked at Wei Dexian and said, "There is no one now, it doesn't mean that there can't be anyone in the future." ”

Guan Zhong hurriedly nodded, and Qi Xiaobai took a deep breath: "Wei Dexian, we must investigate how many people there are in the army of Sulu and how much money is in the treasury!" ”

At this time, Guan Zhong looked at Qi Xiaobai and said, "The treasury of this Sulu country may be the same as ours, and the tax revenue for a year is about the same!" ”

Qi Xiaobai was stunned for a moment, then looked at Guan Zhong and asked, "How can you be so poor?" ”

"Your Majesty, if they are not poor, how can they go and become pirates?"

"There are no thieves in this world, they are all because of external factors, so they slowly went astray, and eventually became thieves!" Guan Zhong looked at his little white energy and said.

Qi Xiaobai nodded, guessing in his heart, if they were rich, who would risk their lives to pirate?

It can be said that these pirates joined the pirates in order to survive and improve their poor conditions.
