In the main hall, the Queen and King Qi were all in formal attire, and the expressions of all the courtiers were turbulent!

He vaguely remembered that [-] days ago, Mei Changsu publicly said in the hall that he could convince Lord Chunshen of Chu, but no one believed it, but the queen chose to believe it.

It was only approaching January, and Chu State sent an envoy to Linzi.

The queen looked at the people from Chu who were about to enter the palace, and said in her heart, "Hou Sheng has done a great job this time!"

The queen is a queen mother who misses her family very much. Housheng has no official position and owes gambling debts everywhere. She has never really punished her. If it weren't for Housheng's lack of talent, why hasn't she become an official yet? .

My younger brother is so rich.

She didn't punish Housheng because she owed her father in her heart. The queen ran away with Tian Fazhang. Under the grief of her father, it was hard for her to get old and have a son.

So, this time, Hou Sheng found Mei Changsu, which can also be regarded as Hou Sheng's credit. The queen is already thinking about how to reward her younger brother next.

The Chu State envoy entered the palace.

The State of Qi greeted them with the most solemn Nine Guests Ritual, which originated in the Zhou Dynasty. Nine officials who welcomed the guests led them to the hall, and three envoys slowly came to the hall.

The leader was Zhu Ying, who said: "Foreign ministers, see King Qi, see Queen Mother!"

Qi Wangjian immediately said: "Chu envoys don't need to be polite, please hurry up!"

At this moment, Zhu Ying did not have the slight arrogance of coming to Qi before. Lu Zhonglian and Chun Yuyan were all surprised. How did Mei Changsu persuade Zhu Ying?

A masterpiece of rites and music, Zhu Ying and the courtiers of Qi State praised the diplomatic relations between the two countries and the friendship from generation to generation, so they presented the map of the twelve counties in Huaibei.

The presentation of the map represents Chu's willingness to surrender the twelve counties of Huaibei to Qi.

In this era, maps are the most precious things. For example, Qin Shihuang received the Dukang presented by the State of Yan. The map is not an ordinary map, it is the area around Gu'an Prefecture.

And the map of Huangyi in front of him is all the detailed water conservancy, mountains and rivers, and road maps from Hengchuan to Longqiu Huaiyin.

Later, the two countries agreed that Qi State could send officials to govern, but they could not garrison troops, and Chu State also withdrew the [-] garrison troops from the fiefdom!Not a single soldier is left behind!But Qi State wanted to garrison troops, but it had to wait until after the Qin Dynasty was defeated.

Qi Guo naturally would not refuse.

State affairs are no joke, and Qi State won the map, so naturally it will not doubt Chu State's motives.

Declare to the world that the State of Qi has obtained the twelve counties of Huaibei from the State of Chu!

An hour later, all the timers of the Chu Kingdom withdrew from the hall one after another.

The courtiers of the State of Qi are still excited. Nanzi is guarding Nancheng, which can be said to be the eyes of the twelve counties in Huaibei. Who dares to break ground in the twelve counties of Huaibei now?

Soon, the queen summoned Su Jie.

Su Jie went to the hall, and Ji Shou said: "Congratulations to the king, congratulations to the queen mother, now Qi has a king who expands the territory, and a wise queen mother is a sign of the prosperity of Qi!"

The courtiers all laughed.

Xiangbang said: "Mr. Mei said that day, Qi State has acquired such a large piece of land today, and Mr. Mei has contributed a lot."

The Queen looked at Su Jie, and said with a smile: "Then what do you guys think, how should the King reward you?"

Lu Lianzhong smiled and said, "Hasn't the Queen Mother already agreed to let Mr. Mei be our Minister of Qi?"

Su Jie allowed Qi State to obtain twelve counties, and he felt qualified to be a Shangqing.

At this time, after Ganmao, Ganluo was still very young.

However, Su Jie knew that Gan Luo let Qin State win the five counties with his words, so Qin State worshiped Shangqing, which is a fake!

Chun Yuyan said: "Da Sixing, I think that Mr. Mei's talent should be more suitable for our army. Queen Mother, I think it is better to make Mr. Mei Sima!"

Sima is also a general!

But it is half a rank higher than Qin's general and half a rank lower than the top general.

When Chun Yuyan said this, he still couldn't forget it in his heart. Su Jie knew about the celestial phenomena that day.

Everyone in the world knows that in today's world, only Su Jie, Marquis of Qin, has this kind of ability. Zou Yan, who was only a few years ago in Qi, also had this kind of ability, but Zou Yan has passed away!

As soon as Su Jie heard it, he knew that the Qi State must have sent someone to the Gusu generation in Jiangzuo!

Lu Zhonglian immediately said: "Grand Sima, who knows the sky, does not necessarily have to join the army. Mr. Mei does not necessarily know the art of war. If he is forced to be a Sima, how will Mr. Mei deal with himself? Zou Zi also knew the sky back then. , aren't you also an official in the court?"

Chapter 266 Su Jie worships the Prime Minister of Qi!

"what?"

"Young Master Mei can know the time of day!"

For a while, the court of Qi State exploded.

Everyone knows who Zou Yan is, the sacrificial wine of Jixia Academy!Being able to understand Yin and Yang, it is rumored that he is a member of the Yin and Yang family!

Chun Yuyan was annoyed immediately, and said: "The art of war can be learned, and it will be enough after a few battles, but if you think about it, if Mr. Mei's talents are used in the march, wouldn't our country of Qi also have one more Marquis Wu? Don’t you all know Marquis Wu’s ability? As far as I am concerned, Mr. Mei’s talent is more than half that of Marquis Wu’s.”

You must know that the Jixia Academy, where scholars from all over the world gather, Mei Changsu's talent has long been spread throughout the world.

Maybe today, it has already reached the ears of Marquis Wu of Qin.

All of a sudden, there were discussions in the courtroom.

Some agree and some oppose!

The Queen looked at Su Jie and said, "Mei Changsu, the old woman wants to hear your own opinion!"

Su Jie said: "I am a talent of Yinghuo, thank you Da Sima for your love, but I think that as a courtier, in his position, and doing things, it has nothing to do with the court and the army. The Chu State is willing to donate the Huaibei Twelve County, is it really the credit of the subordinates? From the point of view, there are credits for the successor, the credit for the king, the credit for the queen mother, and naturally the credit for the full force. Therefore, the job is not important, the important thing is Those who can govern the country and save the people, with good knowledge, are useless if they cannot put themselves into practice first.”

The queen smiled and nodded.

He was very satisfied that Su Jie actually mentioned Hou Sheng.

Su Jie continued: "For example, if I join the army, if there is a danger in Huaibei, will I not care about it? Or, if I become a minister, if the army encounters a strong enemy, will I not care about it? "

Su Jie said a word!

People were surprised.

The queen said in shock: "Mr. Mei, what did you say? The danger in Huaibei? What do you mean!"

The ministers talked a lot.

They all looked at Su Jie.

Su Jie nodded and said: "The matter of yin and yang has variables and is not accurate. I went to Huaibei a few days ago and watched the stars at night. I found that Huaibei may encounter natural disasters in the next ten days, but it may not. Now , everyone in the world knows that Huaibei is the land of Qi State, if there is a natural disaster, should Qi State save it, or not?"

Tian Jiandao: "Naturally, we need to rescue. Although there is no garrison in Huaibei, the officials in Huaibei are from our country of Qi. However, Mr. Mei, what do you mean by the natural disaster in Huaibei?"

Su Jie smiled and said: "Your Majesty is merciful. Now Huaibei belongs to the State of Qi in name, but half of it is still in the State of Chu. The fact that Your Majesty can think of saving the people shows His wisdom! I dare not lie to Your Majesty, I just want to It is hard to predict natural disasters, floods, or earthquakes, but once they occur, there will inevitably be casualties!"

After Su Jie finished speaking, he glanced at the Queen, and found that the Queen's eyes were only staring at him.

Suddenly, the queen said: "Mr. Mei's words are correct, and Mr. Zou was not very accurate at that time, but since Mr. Mei said something, the king has to guard against it. The officials who will go to Huaibei tomorrow must tell them to be vigilant. Unexpected! Mr. Mei, the old lady wants to beg you, my Shangqing of Qi, what do you think?"

Su Jie hurriedly said: "I am willing, sir!"

The courtiers nodded one after another.

The look is complicated, talented people can become high officials and rank in the court class as soon as they come, but some people can hardly step into the gate of the court in their entire lives.

Then when Su Qin came to Qi State, he was Xiangbang.

Today's Mei Changsu is not weaker than Su Qin, and he also worshiped the false appearance. Compared with Su Qin, what is more reassuring is that Mei Changsu is from Jiangzuo Gusu, and has been found out long ago.

With an innocent background, talent, and consideration for the country of Qi, he is naturally convincing!

Afterwards, Tian Jian gave clothes and hung a seal. Qi's court clothes were mainly red and white, brocade and silk gowns, which were extremely luxurious. Su Jie was already amazing in appearance, but now wearing Qing clothes, he immediately showed his official authority!

Lu Lianzhong and others were amazed again and again.

Lu Lianzhong smiled and said: "If we didn't know that the young master has never been an official, I would have thought that the young master would have been a high-ranking person long ago."

Su Jie was taken aback for a moment, and then he said: "The boss is showing love."

"I've been waiting to meet Shangqing!"

The courtiers have all condemned their heads!

After getting off the court!

Before Su Jie could walk out of the palace gate, he was stopped by someone and said: "Xiangbang, the queen is here to invite you!"

Su Jie nodded, Shangqing is a false appearance, and he can also be called Xiangbang in private!

Su Jie said: "Please lead the way!"

"Don't dare!"

It was the first time for Su Jie to enter the harem of the Qi State. It has to be said that the palace of the Qi State is the largest among all the countries, and the five-story attic palace is only owned by the State of Qi!

Compared with Zhao Wanggong, it is nothing worth mentioning.

When Su Jie came to the Li Palace of Snow Palace, he met the Queen, Qi Wangjian and Housheng!

Su Jie hurriedly said: "I have seen the king and the queen mother!"

The queen smiled and nodded, "Xiangbang doesn't need to be too polite!"

Hou Sheng looked at Su Jie, sighed, and said, "I haven't seen you for a few days, and my brother is already the prime minister of Qi!"

Su Jie laughed and said, "If it wasn't for Young Master Sheng's recommendation, Mei Changsu'an would have become the dignified person he is today, and Mei Changsu has been greatly favored by Young Master Sheng, please accept my worship!"

After finishing speaking, Su Jie bowed to Jishou, who was the master of Hou Sheng.

Hou Sheng waved his hands melancholy and said, "My brother, you don't need to be like this. In the future, if you have a surplus in your hand, just give me some money to spend."

After the victory is revealed, the king and the queen are angry after hearing it.

Said: "Hou Sheng, it is a great achievement for you to recommend a talent like Xiangbang. What reward do you want?"

Hou Sheng was overjoyed, that's great, and said, "How about giving me a thousand pieces of gold?"

The queen sighed, and said after a while: "You are worthless, that's enough, I will order someone to send you a thousand gold!"

Su Jie suddenly said: "Queen Dowager, I have objections!"

Hou Shenggang was so excited that he almost cried out. Su Jie was flustered. He looked over and seemed to be dissatisfied. He felt bad all of a sudden. Well, Mei Changsu, without me, Hou Sheng, you can be Shangqing ?

The queen asked puzzledly, "What does Xiangbang mean?"

Su Jie said: "The Empress Dowager called the minister here, didn't she want to inquire about Huaibei?"

The queen nodded and said: "You really have a seven-aperture exquisite heart, but what does this have to do with the daughter I rewarded Hou Sheng?"

Su Jie said: "Everyone knows that the queen is the most filial person in the world, so she cares for her clansman in every possible way. Even if someone offered slanderous words to the prince, they were all scolded and retreated by the queen mother. From this, it can be seen that the queen mother's filial piety is the heart of the people. They are all in admiration.”

When the Queen heard what Su Jie said, she felt comforted in her heart.

Yes, these courtiers like to say that they protect their younger brothers, but how do others know the pain in their hearts, their father is only such a son, should they let themselves be punished?

Su Jie continued: "How much is the gold in the twelve counties of Huaibei?"

The Queen was stunned and said: "One hundred thousand gold, one million gold is not enough!"

Su Jie laughed and said: "Then why didn't the queen mother give the twelve counties of Huaibei to Housheng! Presumably the queen mother's doing so will make Tai Shizhu let go of his grudge against the queen mother."

"what?!"

Tian Jian exploded!

Hou Sheng was stunned, ecstatic! ! !

Su Jie meant to ask the Queen to give him the twelve counties in Huaibei?

The Queen was shocked and said: "With your talent, it is impossible not to know that fiefdoms cannot be canonized at will, not even my own brother, but you still propose so, do you have any reliance?"

In fact, it's not that the queen is unwilling to serve as an official for Housheng, nor is it unwilling to reward him, but that Housheng is a woman except for gambling, so there is no merit.

Su Jie smiled and said: "Queen Mother, what the minister said in the court is that Huaibei is in trouble! It is true!"

"What? Didn't you say it's not certain?"

Su Jie said: "If I really say that there is a disaster, someone must go to relieve the disaster, and the people under the rule of Huaibei will be grateful to the people who helped the disaster, so the ministers will definitely petition to go to Huaibei, but this disaster does not happen. If you're not sure, it's not enough to attract people to go."

"However, if the Empress Dowager sends Young Master Sheng to Huaibei for disaster relief, then when the disaster strikes, all the credit will go to Young Master Sheng, and then the Empress Dowager will take the opportunity to entrust Huaibei to Young Master Sheng on the grounds that Young Master Sheng has made great achievements, isn't it? Is it a matter of course? How can the courtiers oppose the petition of the people?"

Hou Sheng was stunned at first, then overjoyed.

Looking at Su Jie repeatedly said: "Brother, I read you right, you really remember my brother!!! Sister, I want Huaibei!!!"

The queen's words to Su Jie were too shocking.

It turned out that Su Jie had planned it long ago?
