Quickly wear "I am the empress"
Chapter 64 Empress of Qin (64)
It was not until the chairs were moved away that the envoy of Qi sat down.
Seeing this, Zhiyu quickly asked people to bring good wine and food, and also called out the prepared songs and dances. The main purpose was to make the people of Qi feel at home.
Looking at the rich delicacies in front of him, the Qi envoy's eyes softened slightly and he forgot about the unethical things in Qin just now.
Compared with the people of Qi, the food in front of the Qin officials was more than a little shabby. There were two plates of meat in front of the three princes, one plate for Jiu Qing, and all the other officials had vegetarian dishes in front of them. This was especially true for the princess of the Qin Dynasty. , there were only three plates of meat in front of me.
After seeing the food in front of the Qin people, the people of Qi looked at each other for a while and couldn't help but sigh in their hearts. They knew that Qin was poor, but they didn't expect it to be so poor.
I don’t know why the king is worried about Da Qin. With Da Qin like this, I am afraid that if Qi does not send troops, the Qin people will starve to death sooner or later...
Zhiyu clapped his hands and called for a song and dance. Immediately, dancers filed in, wearing shabby patched clothes and appearing in the hall with sallow faces.
Hou Sheng looked at the patches of the same color that the dancers were trying their best to cover up, and then looked at their sallow little faces that looked like they were malnourished, and he instantly lost his interest in enjoying the singing and dancing. The beauty didn't even look at her when she was dancing. These dancers, not the maid Shui Ling behind him, were nothing to see. If he didn't stop and let these people continue dancing, he would be giving face to Qin.
"Prime Minister Qi, when my father left for the front line, he promised to entertain envoy Qi well. This is the first time that Man has taken charge of the overall situation. If there is any improper reception, please forgive me."
After hearing Zhiyu's words, Hou Sheng looked at the sallow-faced Qin officials around him and couldn't help but twitch the corners of his mouth. With Qin Qiong like this, it would be great if he could entertain him well. What else could he choose...
"The Queen of the Qin Dynasty has spoken seriously, and the Queen Mother has done a good job. Our country of Qi has seen the sincerity of the Great Qin..."
The smile on Wen Zhiyu's face became three points thicker, "That's good. I'm a woman who doesn't understand the rules. I'm really afraid of not being well received..."
Hou Sheng waved his hand, "I heard that Da Qin can produce an item called paper, which can replace bamboo slips. I wonder if this is true?"
Wen Zhiyu nodded, with a somewhat apologetic look on his face, "It is true, but the paper... is not very useful. If Qi Xiang is interested, I will send someone to send some... …….”
"That's all, there's no rush to see it another day."
"I'm really tired of traveling, so I'd better go to the place where I'm staying and tidy up first."
Hou Sheng originally wanted to agree, but he heard such rumors on the way to Qin. He originally wanted to test the truth and see if this thing really existed in Da Qin, but looking at the expressions of everyone in Da Qin, he knew that this thing was probably Qin came out to deceive the world's officials.
I don’t know why the people of the Qin Dynasty were so ignorant. Instead of concentrating on governing the country and developing agriculture, they went out to fight like reckless men and made the country a mess. Now, even the officials in the world have been deceived...
Hearing this, Zhiyu had no reason not to agree. He politely sent the people from Qi to the inn that had been prepared long ago, and sent people from Dianke Mansion to communicate with them at any time...
After sending the people of Qi away, the officials of Great Qin changed their sluggish look, smiled on their faces, and asked the people next to them how they were doing.
Zhiyu looked at everyone's performance and shook his head in amusement, then praised him on the spot: "Among everyone today, I feel that Prime Minister Wei's performance was the best."
After hearing Zhiyu's words, everyone's eyes moved to Kai Xiang who was holding a wooden stick as a crutch. Looking at Kai Xiang's half-dead appearance, everyone sighed in their hearts. The Prime Minister is worthy of being a Prime Minister, even if he dresses up in poverty. Outshine them.
The gray beard on Wei Zhuang's face couldn't help but curl up when he heard this. He threw away the walking stick in his hand, raised his hand to brush off the dust on his sleeve and said quite proudly:
"The truth has been in Da Qin for so many years, and I have long been familiar with this kind of thing. You should still try your best..."
Hearing this, everyone came forward to learn from Wei Zhuang. Now that Qin was at a critical moment, they could not hold back. Even if they pretended to be poor, they had to learn well so that they could not be exaggerated and make people in Qi feel that Qin was really poor. .
Seeing the crowd surrounding Wei Xiang, Zhiyu waved his hands in a funny way and said with a smile: "The appearance of Prime Minister Wei today is worthy of being the best in our Daqin. He really deserves a reward. Come here, bring ten kilograms of paper and give it to him." Give it to Prime Minister Wei."
Hearing this, the civil and military officials stopped making noises, and even those who were looking for Wei Zhong to seek scriptures all shut up. They naturally knew that Da Qin had the paper, after all, the princess showed it in the court.
But the princess said that the paper had just been made and had not yet been mass-produced, so before Qi people left, the paper was not taken out to avoid attracting Qi people's attention. Therefore, they only saw the paper in the court that day. That's all, now the concubine actually rewarded Prime Minister Wei with ten kilograms of paper...
After Wei Zhuang saw that the eyes of the people around him gradually turned to envy and jealousy, he pushed aside the crowd with his head held high, stepped forward and cupped his hands towards Zhiyu and said, "Thank you, Madam, for the reward..."
Everyone stared at the calm and calm Wei Xiang with envy and hatred for a long time, then turned to look at Zhi Yu who had rewarded Wei Xiang.
Seeing everyone looking at her eagerly, Zhiyu said funnyly: "I think everyone is very interested in paper. Now that people from Qi are coming to Qin, why don't we all compete to pretend to be poor? Who pretends to be poor every day is in line with his status and poor?" How about if you are awesome, I will reward anyone with ten catties of paper?"
After hearing this, everyone's eyes lit up, and their eyes scanned the surrounding colleagues with vigilance, and their eyes revealed a certain tendency to win.
"But you can't publicize it even if you get the paper. Who dares to take out the paper before the Qi people leave and kill the three tribes."
"only…………."
When everyone heard Zhiyu's cold words, they all raised their hands and replied respectfully. Although the concubine is a young lady, she has nothing to do with being kind and soft-hearted. When she said that she would kill the three tribes, she really meant that she would kill the three tribes. Naturally, they would not dare to do so. Making such a heinous mistake...
Seeing that everyone knew the seriousness of the matter, Zhiyu waved his hand and asked them to go back and perform their duties.
The next day, the people of Qi State were surprised to find that the Qin State was much poorer than the previous day. Not only were these Qin officials wearing patched clothes, they also looked like they had not eaten. They were out of breath after taking two steps. , the sight made them tremble with fear, fearing that these Qin people would faint and fall to the ground if they didn't pay attention.
"Ahem, cough, cough, please forgive me. They..., they are like this because they are too full and have no strength."
Seeing them pretending like this for ten pounds of paper, Zhiyu coughed with a guilty conscience and said embarrassedly.
"Gululu......"
As soon as Zhiyu finished speaking, an inappropriate voice sounded. When everyone heard the sound, they looked over and saw Li Si, the commander of the State of Qin, standing against the wall with a pale face, as if he had not eaten for several days.
Seeing that everyone had seen it, Li Si quickly knelt down in fear, "My lord, please forgive me. My lord, please atone. Didn't Si rush into the envoys on purpose? It was Si's fault. Si had accidentally eaten too much for breakfast today and was like this..." …….”
Hearing this, the people from the Qin Kingdom looked at Li Si with complicated expressions. They didn't expect that Li Si, an old thief, could be so ungrateful. Forget about wearing patched clothes and being pale, your belly is here to join in the fun. Are you doing it for these ten pounds of face? You don’t want it anymore, right………….
