Chapter five hundred and eighteenth meeting with the rulers and ministers of the state of Qi

The next day.

The people Zhao Dan met this time were from another rival country, Qi, of Zhao, in this war.

However, this time it was different from last night, and it was not just a separate meeting between the two kings.

In addition to King Jian of Qi, the prime minister Housheng of Qi also appeared at the scene of this talks. In addition, the prime minister of Yan, which represents Yan, also the prime minister of Yan.

It can be seen that such a meeting method made the king and minister of Qi a little confused. As soon as King Jian of Qi sat down, he asked a question directly: "Where are Zhao Dan, King Wei and King Han?"

Logically speaking, this kind of alliance should be very grand. The negotiations that everyone gathered together were like the last Luoyi meeting.

But now Zhao Dan only found Qi and Yan, which inevitably made the monarchs and ministers of Qi feel suspicious.

Zhao Dan looked at King Jian of Qi with a smile. The tone of the words that King Jian of Qi just spoke was actually very bad, very aggressive, and the tone of pointing at the nose and questioning.

Zhao Dan is actually understandable about this. After all, Gaotang City was originally the territory of Qi, but after a war, it became the land of Zhao. Moreover, King Jian of Qi had to come here to seek peace with Zhao Dan. He must have felt aggrieved.

But whether you feel wronged or not is it up to me?

Who gives you the courage to show off your face, shy your face, and lose your temper?

So although Zhao Dan smiled, his tone was not polite when he spoke: "King of Qi, I think King Wei and King Han don't have to come, so they don't have to come. Why? Does King Qi have any objection to my decision?"

Zhao Dan had a full smile on his face, but the eyes in his eyes had completely cooled down.

As long as King Jian of Qi responded ungratefully, I will let you know what this typo is written today!

King Jian of Qi seemed to have realized his mistake. When he saw Zhao Dan's bad appearance, he was shocked and said quickly: "King Zhao misunderstood. I didn't mean that. King Zhao is the leader of this alliance. I have no objection to how to arrange it. Haha, haha!"

King Jian of Qi laughed dryly, trying to ease the tension in the hall, Hou Sheng also laughed a few times, but no matter how the king and his ministers smiled, they were extremely awkward.

Seeing this, Zhao Dan couldn't help but sneer in his heart, thinking that I thought that King Jian of Qi was coming to face me today, but I didn't expect that he was also a coward.

But it is actually normal to think about it. After all, the Yan army is still surrounding Linzi, and Gao Tang is in the hands of Zhao. Even if King Jian of Qi wants to be arrogant, how can he have any capital for arrogant?

But no matter what, the behavior of King Jian of Qi's rudeness at first and then becoming cowardly in one second made Zhao Dan look down on the king of Qi a lot in his heart.

Think about it, in history, Qi State basically did not participate in several wars in the late Warring States Period, and was in a state of peace for most of the time.

If this is changed to a more promising monarch, at least it will govern Qi State in an orderly manner and develop it into a world-renowned power, right?

As a result, King Jian of Qi did nothing, and governance was impossible, and development did not exist. He knew that he would eat, drink and have fun with Housheng every day. As a result, when Qin Shihuang sent people to fight, the military of Qi was slack, and the people were unwilling to resist. In the end, he surrendered without a decent resistance.

If the ancestors who had been famous in the history of the Tian family and had been famous in history, such as King Wei of Qi and King Xuan of Qi, knew that their descendants were actually such incompetent and cowardly, they would probably be angry in the coffin.

The four words "weakness and incompetence" are completely customized for the king of Qi. This is true in history and now.

So Zhao Dan was no longer polite and went straight to the point: "King of Qi, since everyone is sitting here today, I will not say secret words. First, the Hejian area of ​​Gaotang will be returned to me. Secondly, the north of the Hutuo River, that is, Ge and Pingshu are owned by Yan State. If you are willing, then you can truce the battle here, if you are unwilling..."

Zhao Dan spread his hands indifferently: "Then keep fighting."

If Zhao Dan of Wei still had some concerns and would choose to tolerate during negotiations, then when facing King Jian of Qi, Zhao Dan had no concern at all.

If you don’t agree? If you don’t agree, just continue to fight! At worst, you can break through Linzi first. If you don’t believe it, you won’t agree.

Anyway, it was Yan State that besieged Linzi, not Zhao State. Other countries must be very alert to Zhao State's expansion, but they are not so concerned about Yan State's words.

Moreover, who doesn’t know that Yan and Qi are enemies? Looking at the eager expression of Lejian, maybe this guy really hopes that King Jian of Qi will reject Zhao Dan’s proposal.

As Le Yi's son, Le Jian had imagined in his heart that he had led a large army to conquer Qi many times.

King Jian and Hou Sheng looked at each other, and both saw helpless expressions from each other's eyes. Hou Sheng coughed and said, "King, this matter is of great importance. Should my king consider it..."

Housheng wanted to use procrastination tactics.

Let's go out and get along with Wei, South Korea, and other things, and then consider whether to accept the conditions of Zhao.

Zhao Dan looked at Hou Sheng with a smile, without a look of anger on his face, but instead agreed with Hou Sheng's proposal.

"Yes, yes, I also think that of course, it is better to be cautious when cede land! But what I want to remind Houqing and King Qi is that the city wall of Linzi City is that I don't know if I can last for that long!"

Yes, although several kings and Xiangbang are now having a happy conversation with Gaotang, the Zhao army and Yan army have never stopped attacking Linzi and Dong'a over the past few days.

If Linzi was really captured by the Yan army during the negotiations, then... it would be very interesting.

Zhao Dan actually didn't really want the Yan army to conquer Linzi.

After all, Qi has lost more than 100,000 troops and Gao Tang, and his vitality has been severely damaged. If Linzi is lost, then Yan might have a chance to take advantage of the situation and have the chance to repeat the feat of his father Le Yi swallowing an elephant.

Of course, Zhao Dan didn't want to see Yan annex Qi.

But if Qi State really doesn't know the current affairs, Zhao Dan really has no choice. He can't hold a knife on the neck of King Jian and Housheng of Qi, and force them to sign a contract.

It seemed that this might not be enough, so Zhao Dan thought about it and decided to give away another information to the monarch and ministers of Qi for free.

Zhao Dan coughed and said, "By the way, King Qi, I have heard recently that Chu has gathered a lot of troops near Qufu City. This Qufu City... seems to be very close to Pinglu City?"

When King Jian and Hou Sheng heard this, their expressions changed and they became solemn at the same time.

Pinglu, like Gaotang, is one of the five capitals of Qi. Losing one Gaotang is enough to make Qi hurt. If you throw another Pinglu...

King Jian of Qi looked at Zhao Dan with bright eyes: "King Zhao is serious about this?"

Zhao Dan laughed and spread his hands and said, "King of Qi, you can find out by investigating this kind of thing. Can I still need to deceive you?"

Obviously, the information Zhao Dan said greatly shocked the monarchs and ministers of Qi.

After whispering softly for a while, King Jian of Qi seemed to have made up his mind, looked up at Zhao Dan, and said to Zhao Dan: "King Zhao, King Chang, if I agree to your conditions, can you really guarantee to withdraw your troops immediately?"

Zhao Dan laughed, glanced at Lejian, and said, "This is natural."

Lejian also nodded and said, "After the peace agreement is completed, we will naturally withdraw our troops."

King Jian of Qi gritted his teeth and said, "Since that's the case, then I agree!"
Chapter completed!
