Spring and Autumn I Am King

Chapter 488: Gathering Valley (Part 2)

ps: Chapter 2 is in the afternoon

"Bang"! With a bang, the ground shook with thunder, the wine cup in Chen Heng's hand fell to the ground, and the pale yellow liquor was spilled on the ground. 【Read the latest chapter..】

The movement here attracted everyone, but in their surprised eyes, they saw Zhao Wuxi sitting motionless on the table, while Chen Heng's face changed rapidly, he smiled awkwardly, slowly got up and picked up the wine A lamp, and let the standing person waiting by the side change it.

Chen Heng was like a thief who was swaggering around in Lilu. He was called out of his identity on the spot, and his heart was pounding. But he responded very quickly, and people filled the wine glass again and held it high: "I just wanted to honor Zitai, but who would have expected it to slip..."

The words Zhao Wuxi just said were not loud, only Chen Heng could hear them. Among the Qi Kingdom, only Yan Zi, who was a friend of the Chen family and knew the Chen family best, once made this prediction:

"Qi Qi is the Chen family!"

But how did a Jin person in the state of Lu see it?

Terrible, really terrible.

Chen Heng must not, must not let him say it again, not here, in front of the monarchs, lords, lords, and officials of Qilu and Lu.

So he smiled and looked at Zhao Wuxi with a pleading look in his eyes.

"What a pity, the wine was spilled, how about I toast it again?"

Zhao Wuxi nodded, he didn't loudly preach the words just now, but said with an inch: "Zichang is young, he is at the age of guarding Yu Guojun with a bow and arrow, why is his wrist weak, this sky There was no thunder in the middle of it, but it shocked your wine cup, how can one time be enough, it is only three times as a penalty!"

Zhao Wuxi, you are cruel!

Chen Heng was helpless, so he had to toast Zhao Wuxi again with three glasses of wine. By the time he reached the third one, his cheeks were already red, he was staggering, and he was holding a huge copper bottle. Yellow-green wine y spilled over the edges.

He looked like he was drunk, but he was thinking about things like lightning in his heart. In fact, if the Chen family wanted to replace Qi, even if Zhao Wuxi said it in public, it was nothing, but the slander he said from the enemy's mouth. He is so eloquent that he can even make good use of it to deepen Qihou's trust and reuse of himself.

But words are like wind, and they are also thorns, which will stick in the hearts of Qihou and Qingshi Gao Zhang and Bao Mu. Make them afraid of Chen Shi at a critical moment. His father repeatedly instructed him that the Chen family is not strong enough now, and he still needs to win the hearts of the people while keeping a low profile.

So if you can reduce the trouble, it is a good thing after all.

The cooperation of the two successfully dealt with the doubts of the crowd. They looked at each other, thinking they were young people joking, and then turned their heads back and continued their boring chat.

Chen Heng breathed a sigh of relief, sat down again, and said, "Zi Tai. You can't talk nonsense about this. It's not something that a hero like you should do."

"Different? I'm just telling the truth. Otherwise, Chen's Big Dou lends it out, Xiao Dou takes it back, kills the oxen, and collects all the tigers in the world. What do you want?"

This is all true, but Chen Heng wanted to take back the initiative in this conversation, so he sneered: "No. It's like I once heard people say that Zhao Xiaosikou, as a Jin man, lived in Lu, but he wanted to get Power. Not only did you control the four cities, but you also occupied many territories in Lu, Qi, and Wei. As a doctor, you led the alliance, promulgated laws and decrees in the territory, made the official system easier, and even issued coins... tsk tsk, speaking of it This is also an act of disrespect. It is no worse than my family. If I openly said in front of Luhou that you want to replace Sanhuan and follow Yanghu to steal state affairs, what would Lu people think?"

Zhao Wuxi laughed out loud, and once again attracted a burst of attention, which made Chen Heng terrified.

After laughing, he said lightly: "I have a clear conscience, if Zichang is not angry, you and I can criticize each other, and then be regarded as two weak-headed children who were openly drunk and nonsense at the alliance meeting. The fame that has been accumulated is destroyed in one fell swoop."

Chen Heng choked for a moment. He has never met a rival among his peers in China, and now he has encountered a natural enemy. He couldn't help scratching his face: "Zitai threatens, what do you want to do?"

"I want to ask Zichang, come to see me today, just to get acquainted?"

Chen Heng was silent, then approached Zhao Wuxi, and the two young men crossed their shoulders, as if they knew each other at first sight.

"The leader of the younger generation of Qilu, only Zitai and me, what you want to do in Lu is self-evident. I won't expose you, and you don't have to frame the Chen family. There are no grievances that cannot be eliminated in the world. Qi Kingdom and Lu Kingdom have reconciled, you and I should cooperate instead of hurting each other..."

Zhao Wuxi raised his eyebrows: "Cooperation?"

"The territory of Gaotang and Yiyi Iontai is not far away. Zhao's porcelain is sold to Chen's, and Chen's porcelain is sold in Qi. The merchants of the two sides do not go to war. Don't loot on the river. This is Chen's. requested."

"What's in it for me?"

"Chen's navigator sails the big river. Although it can't protect all merchant ships from river robbery, it can intercept Zhao's merchant ships from Jijin eastward to the south. If Zitai is willing, these unnecessary conflicts can be avoided... "

Zhao Wuxi was full of laughter in his heart. Wasn't it Chen's idea to open the river channel and even use the salt ban policy? In the end, seeing that he suffers a loss, but he has to be a good person, pretending to remove these methods, in exchange for benefits? What a great idea!

Thinking about it, I feel sorry for the thousand catties of bronze on that boat!

What's more, it was not once or twice that the Chen clan had ruined the Zhao clan. The Snow Plains battle was unexpected, and Chen Heng became a big winner. Otherwise, Qi Hou might be a guest at the Xiuqi Palace in the Jin Kingdom with Young Master Yangsheng at the moment. !

And going forward, the death of Zhao Wuxi's father-in-law Le Qi, and Gu Yezi's stabbing in the snowy night of Yangchangzhang, it seems that Chen's shadowy figure is indispensable.

This is from Chen Guo to Qi country, and the family raised by Jiang surname was normal at the beginning, but since Chen Huanzi Wuyu, it has been rich in family planning...

Only Chen Wuzi was a foolish warrior.

In short, their previous grievances with Zhao Wuxi were not avenged, and new hatreds continued.

Will he work with a brood of vipers?

Zhao Wuxi took a deep breath, pinched the r in his palm, and told himself not to act impatiently.

Well, he will, bury the hatred in his heart, and condescend the poisonous snake in vain, so that he can wait for the opportunity to bite them back!

...

At this time, the banquet was basically over, everyone was drinking, and the next program was to play the dance music of Qilu and Lu, and then. It's time to start negotiating.

The place on the Huimeng stage is spacious, like a hall. The dance music from the state of Lu came up first. Confucius had self-knowledge and boasted about the achievements of the Marquis of Lu, "Hui Gong" and "Pan Shui", naturally neither dared nor embarrassed to play it in front of the people of Qi. Therefore, the music played is "You Qi", which is a song of prayers for Lu Hou and his ministers to drink at a banquet. It expresses the scene of a festive harvest, a joyous banquet, and the drunken dance of the ruler and his ministers, which corresponds exactly to the scene.

"There is a scorpion and a scorpion, and the scorpion rides the yellow. Su Ye is in the public. In the public Mingming. Zhen Zhen Lu, Lu Yu Xia..."

Although it was the dog days at the end of May, the dancers of Lu Guo wore extremely conservative clothes, not showing an inch of their skin. Accompanied by the music, they began to appear with long sleeves and graceful appearance.

After Confucius became the Great Zongbo, he attached great importance to ritual and music, and the Lu Palace began to prepare dancers. There will no longer be a situation where all the dancers went to Ji's family temple to dance and only two people were left beside Lu Hou.

It's just that Lu Guo's dance music is quite satisfactory. Xiangli Confucius looked solemn, the Marquis of Lu and Sanhuan were dog-like, and the Marquis of Qi was dozing off to the boring dance music of the state of Lu.

All things in the state of Lu, including women, make Qi people feel bored, but this kind of scene can only be left unchecked.

The Qing doctors were sitting together in groups of three and two, and Zhao Wuxi was already sitting next to Chen Heng at the table. In the eyes of others, the two gentlemen in the jade crown were very modest and cautious, and spoke softly. Yan Xiaoyan, the relationship is very good.

In fact, they are all hiding their knives in laughter, secretly wishing to let each other die immediately!

After Chen Heng pretended to cooperate. Zhao Wuxi pretended to think seriously for a moment and said, "I really have something to ask Zichang to help me."

"Don't know what?"

"Qi Yu and Lu ask for peace. Once the agreement is reached, it is bound to return the lost land to each other."

Chen Heng knew it, but pretended to be confused: "This is natural, and it is not a loss for Lu Guo to exchange Linqiu for irrigation and Kamedian."

"The Marquis of Lu doesn't suffer. Sanhuan doesn't suffer either, but I suffer."

"What does that Zitai want to do?"

Zhao Wuxi said: "Before the battle today, Zichang must have wanted to meet me in battle, but unfortunately Confucius persuaded Qihou to give up. In order not to become the target of public criticism, I had to stop. Qilu reconciled, Wudao The Pu water and Ji water will inevitably be re-dredged, and when the time comes, how many days will the Chen clan monopolize the big rivers, and how many days will there be left to specialize in the cultivation of goods?"

"Besides, since the Marquis of Qi has no foreign troubles, he must carefully examine the country under the persuasion of Guo and Gao. Will the Chen family still have a chance to survive and grow? Therefore, I am not the only one who wants the Qilu peace talks to fall through today. Li, since we want to cooperate, then Zichang will show his sincerity first and help me break this peace negotiation, at least so that Qilu can't reach any covenant, just a truce, how about it?"

Chen Heng is silent, just like he knows Zhao Wuxi's Xilu like the back of his hand, Zhao Wuxi has been watching them silently since he was attacked by Chen's last time, so in this short conversation, the other party's Guess the purpose is inseparable from ten.

That's right, Chen's has been instigating Qi Hou to do things abroad, just to make the country feel tired and people's hearts to belong to Chen's, and at the same time, Qi Hou can't focus on suppressing Chen's, so the peace of Qi Lu is not good for Chen's.

But in the face of Zhao Wuxi's request, he could only smile in embarrassment.

The Chen family is far from having such a strong voice.

Although the Chen family is growing stronger, it is still based on catering to the Marquis of Qi. Although Yan Ying and Bao Guo are dead, their father and son still have to face the threats of Guoxia, Gao Zhang, and Bao Mu. Yan Yu came to compete. The usual conspiracy can only succeed with the assistance of the courtier Liang Qiuqi beside Qi Hou. A kick here and a touch there will always succeed.

But if he were to stop Qi Hou and Guo Xia from negotiating peace talks on the spot, how could he, Chen Heng, have such great ability in the face of Qi Hou, who was extremely suspicious?

Zhao Wuxi said in Xilu that he was one of the best, and his military strength also overwhelmed Sanhuan, like a semi-independent prince. As a peer of the same age, how could Chen Heng not grit his teeth with jealousy for something he could not achieve in ten years?

Therefore, there is a lot of shirk in his words, and he just doesn't want to take chestnuts from Zhao Wuxi's fire.

"It's not that I have no sincerity, but the two countries are happy, and there is no chance of destruction..."

Zhao Wuxi slapped his palms and said, "Who said no?"

Chen Heng followed his eyes and looked up, only to see that the dance music of the state of Lu had ended, and it was the turn of the people of the state of Qi to appear. He is a smart person, and when he thinks about it, he can't help but be stunned, secretly saying that this Zhao Wuxi is really a bold person...

...

"Blowing and swallowing, dancing with drunken words. Yu Xu is happy!"

As the bells stopped~www.wuxiahere.com~ the dancers dispersed, the depressing and long Luguo dance music finally ended!

Qi Hou, who was already drowsy, was suddenly refreshed, and now it was Qi Guo's turn to dance.

He waved his hand skillfully, and the doctor in charge of dance music in the state of Qi, Liang Qiu Zhe, walked to the Marquis of Qi and Marquis Lu in small steps, and the old face said flatteringly: "Your Majesty, are you playing the square dance music, or the palace dance? happy?"

Qi Hou Xi recalled that this was a previously scheduled program. The so-called Quartet Dance Music was actually the Laiyi people who had just held swords, shields and flags under the Huimeng stage. Arranging them to appear is naturally prepared to intimidate and threaten the people of Lu, but now that the tough Zhao Wuxi is here, and the people of Lu are armed, these Laiyi people don't have to come up, and there is no excuse for the people of Lu to regret the peace talks.

So he nodded and said, "Of course it's playing Qi Gong dance music!"

After that, it's time for today's topic! At that time, the custody put Zhao's son in an embarrassing desperate situation.

As long as there are no surprises! (To be continued.)
