It's the end of January, and it's going to be February in a few days. Qi Wangjian's birthday was on the sixth day of the third month, and it took about twenty days from Daijun to Linzi, the capital of Qi, and the mission had to arrive in Linzi four or five days in advance, so the mission had to leave in February. But at present, the plateau has not yet looked for a good candidate to serve as an envoy.

Although there are a lot of military and administrative talents under Gao Yuan's subordinates, there are no too prominent people in diplomacy, such as Ning Qi and Shen Shen, who are not unable to serve as diplomatic envoys, but this time the relationship between the envoys to the Qi State is heavy, and the name is to participate in the birthday of Qi Wangjian, but in fact, he is taking this opportunity to get in touch with other countries to negotiate the affairs of the common resistance to the Qin State, and if the alliance between countries cannot be established, then also take the civil route, and reach a certain alliance agreement with the clans and civil forces of various countries. And Takahara has greater hopes for the latter model. Therefore, in order to accomplish this task, it is difficult for ordinary diplomatic personnel to be competent.

In the Warring States Period, the cooperation between countries to resist Qin has happened many times, and it has proved to be almost useless, the main reason is that the actual intrigue between the countries of the alliance, and most of the monarchs of each country lack a long-term strategic vision, most of the participation in the joint defense of Qin is a whim or a whim, and the ministers in charge of each country are also mixed, good and bad, there are many mediocre ministers and traitors, and there are few capable ministers and ministers, so even if the joint vertical is organized, it is also a twilight and four, swaying from side to side.

Today, it is good to work together to deal with the Qin State, but each of them has a ghost in their hearts, and they have their own little calculations in their hearts, everyone puts their own interests first, and they all want to preserve their own strength, so that the country can fight with the Qin State, and everyone will defend against other countries, it is strange that such a combination can succeed, and the Qin State is even more divided from it, so the vast majority of the unity is from within themselves, not defeated by the Qin State.

Therefore, Gao Yuan also knows very well that it is not possible to go through the national level, but on the contrary, it is more feasible to connect the civil forces of various countries, the power of the world with foresight and vision. Because there is indeed no shortage of far-sighted people in various countries, some of them are from the world, they have a certain strength, and they have a strong power in various countries, and they can influence the government of various countries.

For example, the four sons in the middle of the Warring States period are such examples, the four princes of the Warring States period are all famous longitudinal and horizontal families in the Warring States period, all of them are from their own families, and they are all very powerful, and they all have the reputation of being virtuous and virtuous, and they are known as virtuous and respectful, so they are famous and have a great impact on the government of various countries. And it was precisely in the era of the Four Princes and the Sons of the Princes that the Hezong did the best and the most impressive era, and it was the Duke of Wei who believed in Lingjun Wuji, with his strong personal prestige and tricks, twice formed the Hezong to defeat the Qin State, and once even broke through the Hangu Pass.

Although there is no such thing as the Four Princes and Sons in the country, there are still many clans in various countries, and it is difficult to guarantee that there are not many people with insight and vision, and it is more reliable to unite with them.

However, this kind of joint vertical mode was never done in the Warring States Period, so the selection of envoys to Qi this time did give Gao Yuan a headache. Moreover, Gao Yuan and Ning Qi, Shen Shen and others have also discussed several times, but they could not find a suitable candidate. However, there is not much time left for the plateau, and the selection of envoys must be determined within two or three days.

But today, obviously, there is no way to determine the candidate, and Gao Yuan has no choice but to set the deadline for tomorrow, and today is the last time to consider. Therefore, everyone dispersed, and Gao Yuan also turned back to the inner room, thinking of discussing with Li Yinghong again.

As soon as I walked into the inner room, I heard the sound of "bangbang", and I saw Jiang Mingxia and Luo Huan, two children, each holding a wooden sword, fighting fiercely in the courtyard, and only Yun Yao was watching alone. And her big white wolf was lying on the ground at this time, with its eyes closed, as if it were asleep.

Although Lin Wenqing has now moved out of the mansion on the plateau, Luo Huan still goes to the mansion on the plateau almost every day to play with Jiang Mingxia, and now these two little guys are very close, and occasionally Gao Yuan, Li Yinghong and Han Xiuwan and Lin Wenqing joked, so they simply ordered a doll for these two little guys.

Gao Yuan is still Luo Huan's master in terms of name, although he has not taught Luo Huan swordsmanship for a few days, but he requires the two little guys to practice swordsmanship for at least one hour every day. Luo Huan really worshiped Gao Yuan's words like a god, so he didn't dare to be sloppy at all, and only played with Jiang Mingxia after practicing swordsmanship for an hour every day. Even if it is windy and rainy, Luo Huan will practice diligently at home.

After more than a year of sword practice, although Luo Huan has not learned much advanced swordsmanship, his physical condition has obviously improved greatly, and in the past half a year, Luo Huan has not been sick. Of course, Gao Yuan did not teach Luo Huan advanced swordsmanship, and there was also an important reason, that is, Luo Huan's previous physical essence was indeed too poor, and he couldn't practice advanced swordsmanship.

Of course, if Luo Huan comes, Jiang Mingxia will also accompany him to practice against the two. However, the two children used wooden swords, and they also wore cowhide armor, but they didn't have the right head to fight, and the armor couldn't protect the whole body.

Although Jiang Mingxia is a girl, she is two years older than Luo Huan, and when she first learned to walk, she ran all over the mountains, climbed mountains and trees, jumped into the water and jumped into the stream, and her foundation was much better than Luo Huan. However, as time goes by, Luo Huan's body is also improving, his skills are also flexible, and his swordsmanship has also become proficient, and he can also fight back and forth with Jiang Mingxia, and he can often hit Jiang Mingxia with a few swords. And Luo Huan's progress also forced Jiang Mingxia to continue to improve her swordsmanship, so after the two little guys finished fighting every day, they went home and practiced a little, and they never got tired of it.

Lin Wenqing has also seen the two children practice swords a few times, and at the beginning he saw Luo Huan being hit by Jiang Mingxia, although Yun Yao immediately treated him, but Lin Wenqing was still distressed, although he didn't say it, he was still really worried in his heart that his son's body would be unbearable if he practiced swords like this. But after a long time, I found that Luo Huan's body was stronger, his diseases were less, and he was almost no longer crying, so he was very relieved. It seems that Gao Yuan's teaching method is indeed very effective, and Lin Wenchun also knows that practicing swordsmanship is also very beneficial to his son's future growth, and if he can really accompany Luo Huan to raise his talents, he can be regarded as worthy of his dead husband.

Yun Yao saw that Gao Yuan was coming, and was about to stop the two little guys, but was stopped by Gao Yuan. Because seeing that the two little ones were engaged in fighting, Takahara didn't want to interrupt them.

I saw that the two wooden swords exchanged more than ten times in a row, and I saw Jiang Mingxia's wooden sword open Luo Huan's wooden sword, rush into the middle door, and stab Luo Huan's left shoulder with a sword. Smiled: "This is the eighth sword." ”

Luo Huan was in a hurry, swung his sword and slashed at Jiang Mingxia, Jiang Mingxia dodged Luo Huan's three swords in a row, and when she saw that Luo Huan was too strong, she swung her sword and stabbed Luo Huan two swords in a row. Fortunately, these swords were all struck on the leather armor, and they were not painful.

Jiang Mingxia took two steps back, took off her mask, smiled coquettishly, and said, "I have already completed ten swords, and this time I won again." ”

Luo Huan also took off his mask, and said with some annoyance: "I lost again, and I won with only one sword." ”

It turned out that Gao Yuan formulated a comparison rule for the two, and Jiang Mingxia stabbed Luo Huan ten swords in each game to win, and Luo Huan only used to hit Jiang Mingxia six swords to win, which just allowed the two to be evenly matched. Just now, Luo Huan had hit Jiang Mingxia's five swords, and he was only one sword away, but he was chased by Jiang Mingxia three times in a row, and he still lost this game, so he was very annoyed.

At this time, Gao Yuan smiled: "Huan'er." ”

The two little guys discovered the plateau at this time, Luo Huan hurriedly pointed to the ground on one knee, held the sword and pestle in one hand, and said, "Master." ”

Jiang Mingxia also ran to the front of Gao Yuan and said, "Uncle Gao." ”

Gao Yuan patted Jiang Mingxia's head and said to Luo Huan, "Get up." ”

Luo Huan stood up and Gao Yuan said: "In the game just now, you were only one sword away from winning, but Mingxia was hit by three swords in a row and lost this game, do you know why?" ”

Luo Huan said: "It's because my swordsmanship is not as good as Xiaoxia." ”

Gao Yuan shook his head and said with a smile: "This is not the main reason, but because you are in too much of a hurry." ”

As he spoke, he took the wooden sword from Jiang Shuxia's hand, imitated Jiang Mingxia's swordsmanship just now, first opened Luo Huan's wooden sword, and then stabbed Luo Huan's left shoulder, and said: "Even if this sword hits you, but Mingxia is still two swords, but you are only one sword, if you are not in a hurry, you are still as before, steady and steady, it is not that there is no chance to win." ”

Jiang Mingxia said with a smile: "But after you took this sword, it was completely a nonsense, but I seized the opportunity and stabbed you with two swords, if you don't fight nonsense, you won't lose so quickly." ”

Gao Yuan patted Luo Huan's head and said, "I understand no, under any circumstances, I can't be in a hurry, how I usually practice, just fight, I must not fight indiscriminately." ”

After Luo Huan heard this, he also nodded and said, "I'm white, Shi Chuan." He turned to Jiang Mingxia and said, "Xiaoxia, let's have another game." ”

Jiang Mingxia smiled and said, "Okay, let's play another game and see if you remember." As he spoke, he took back his wooden sword from Gao Yuan's hand, and the two children immediately fought again.

At this moment, I saw Lin Wenqing coming from the direction of the gate, saw the plateau, stood up to the bow, and said, "Wenqing has seen the lord." ”
