wealthy queen

I don't know why, when Chen Zhiyuan proposed that Chen Zhiqi choose opponents for the extra match, Shen Liang felt his eyelids twitch, and subconsciously raised his head to look at the opposite side, but Chen Zhiyuan and his brothers were waiting for the emperor's reply, so they didn't face each other. Facing them, it was difficult for him to see what was going on just from the profile.

"what happened?"

Keenly aware of his abnormality, Pei Yuanlie asked worriedly in his ear.

Shen Liang shook her head: "It's nothing, I just feel that Chen Guolai is not kind."

"Isn't that obvious?"

Pei Yuanlie raised his eyebrows, disapproving.

"Your Majesty, I think it's wrong."

Seeing that the emperor seemed to really agree, Mr. Xie Ge stood up and bowed. This matter seemed fair and just, but in fact Chen Guo had the upper hand, and it was related to the right to host the grand event. No matter which family Chen Zhiqi chose, It is impossible for them to be without pressure. Besides, the same rice supports all kinds of people. It is not the two sons of a wealthy family who are all masters of piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and who are proficient in riding, shooting and martial arts. It has been almost two months, and the situation of each household should be understood. Who can guarantee that Chen Zhiqi will not deliberately pick someone who is not good at anything to compete?

You know, this one is really related to the right to host the grand event!

"My minister agrees!"

"The minister waits for a second opinion."

With Mr. Xie Ge taking the lead, all the civil and military officials stood up and bowed to second the proposal. None of them wanted their own son to be selected. It would be good if they won. If they lost, they would be the sinners of Daqin. It's still a trivial matter, maybe even the lives of the whole family are at stake.

"Prince Chen has also seen it. It's not because I don't agree, but all the officials don't agree. Why don't we let this matter go."

The emperor was not all fools, after careful consideration, he also felt that something was wrong.

"Really? Why don't we continue to discuss the right to host the event?"

Raising eyebrows, Chen Zhiyuan smiled, seemingly compromising, but in fact it was a threat in disguise. The emperor and all the ministers all looked down: "The grand meeting of various countries was created by the emperor, the emperor of the great Qin Dynasty. Is there any reason to transfer it to other countries?"

At this point, the emperor finally looked like an emperor.

"Since that's the case, then I won't accompany you to the next grand meeting of Chen State. It will be held in your Qin State every time. Those who know it are fine, but those who don't know may think that we are here to honor your Qin State. Now we The strength of all countries is average, and no one is worse than the other, you, Qin, want face, and I, Da Chen, don't want it?"

The smile on Prince Chen's face disappeared instantly, and his attitude suddenly became tough.

"Prince Chen is right. I don't have much free time in the Northern Kingdom. I have to play with you every three years. Either the event will be held in turn, or we will withdraw from the event."

Beichen, who had been severely beaten by Pei Yuanlie before, regained his strength. Personal honor and disgrace are far less important than national interests to him.

"Yes, we all quit."

"Correct."

With the two of them taking the lead, the envoys of the other small countries echoed one after another. The emperor sitting on the dragon chair had a black face almost comparable to that of the old pot in the imperial dining room. On weekdays, in front of ministers' orders, they are more arrogant and stronger than the other, but now facing the threats of envoys from various countries, no one dares to speak easily. In front of people!

The scene got out of control for a while, and many people couldn't help looking at Wei Zehang and the three brothers, including the princes and princesses. At this moment, they remembered their good fortune again.

"Yuan Lie, what do you think of this matter?"

But this time, Wei Zehang did not stand up, but moved Pei Yuanlie to a position close to him, and began to communicate with him in a low voice.

"Uncle, do you want to hear the truth or lies?"

Pei Yuanlie raised his eyes, his dark eyes were bottomless, and no one could see what was hidden in them.

"Who cares about your lies, the truth."

Are you kidding me at this time?Wei Zehang gave him an angry look.

"Hehe... Uncle, don't be angry, the truth is, I personally think that it doesn't matter whether the five great powers take turns to hold the event or Daqin has always controlled it. Instead of being forced to hand it over by them."

Hearing what he said earlier, the three Wei Zehang brothers subconsciously frowned, but at the end, they began to think seriously, and looked back and forth at Shen Liang who followed Pei Yuanlie: "Uncle, there is a saying they said Quite right, today is different from the past. At the beginning, Great Qin was strong and powerful, and one family was dominant. The grand gatherings of various countries were actually court worship in disguise. Great Qin could play however it wanted. It is becoming more and more powerful, Daqin still wants to be the same as before, no doubt it is a bit of a dream, we have to learn to keep pace with the times."

The grand gatherings of various countries used to be like court tributes. If they voluntarily give up, it will really become an exchange between countries. In fact, there is not much loss for Qin.

"Brother, what Yuan Lie and Liang Liang said has some truth, we should also accept the reality, the current Da Qin is no longer the former Da Qin."

After a little thought, Wei Zexun agreed with the two of them.

"That's right, brother, in this world, the strong will always speak. If one day Daqin becomes strong again and we want to take back the right to host, who would dare to say no?"

Chen Guoming is sure to win. If they don't give in, it may really trigger a war among the countries. They are not afraid of a single country. What they are afraid of is that all countries will send troops at the same time. At that time, the Wei family will not be able to keep the Great Qin Dynasty even if they have no skills. What's more, Daqin's current national strength will hardly support another major war for at least one or two years. Even if the whole country fights against it and wins by luck, the people will suffer terribly, which runs counter to their belief in protecting the common people in the world.

"Well, I'll go to Mr. Xie Ge and the others to discuss."

Seeing this, Wei Zehang could only sigh helplessly. After he discussed with the three elders, they also felt that it made sense.

"Your Majesty, I have something to report, may I go to the back court?"

Ignoring the noise in the main hall, Xie Ge stood up and bowed his fists. He had already noticed that their chattering envoys had slowly subsided. The emperor's anger had reached its peak. In front of his ministers, there was no more Concerned, he got up and walked away, Xie Ge turned his head and exchanged helpless glances with Zhao Ge, Zeng Ge and Wei Zehang, and the four of them turned to the backyard one after another.

"Everyone, please be safe and don't be impatient. The elders must be discussing this matter with the father, and they will definitely give you a satisfactory answer."

The emperor wasn't there, so the princes naturally wanted to stand up and preside over the overall situation. The envoys didn't make a fuss anymore, and they all gathered together to communicate with each other in a low voice.

"Brother Prince, what do you think they are going to say?"

Chen Zhiqi leaned forward and asked in a low voice. This time they came with a mission. Chen Guo has accumulated for many years and is ready to go. However, Daqin just experienced natural disasters this year, and its national power is crumbling. It is a good time to send troops. To start a war, no matter what, they still need an upright excuse, and the right to host the grand event is their breakthrough.

"The emperor of Qin is an idiot, but his courtiers are smarter than each other. Let's wait and see."

While speaking, Chen Zhiyuan glanced at Pei Yuanlie and his wife who were facing him meaningfully, and followed his gaze. Jealousy and resentment quickly slipped through Chen Zhiqi's eyes. He is the most perfect twin in the world. What is cool?

"Give up the right to host the grand event, are you crazy?"

In the side hall of the back court, before they finished speaking, the emperor stared at the table. The grand gathering of various countries is the merit of the emperor, and they dared to bully the emperor.

"Your Majesty, calm down. Your Majesty must have seen the current situation clearly. Chen Guo just wants to use the right to host the grand event to provoke trouble. The Northern Kingdom Wei is afraid that the world will not be chaotic, let alone those small countries. We must give up the right to host the grand event. Or we can only prepare to go to war with all the countries in the world at the same time. With the current national strength of Daqin, it is probably enough to deal with a Chen country, let alone all the countries in the world? In the end, we may not only lose the right to hold the grand event. On the contrary, if we Taking the initiative to give up the right to hold the event will not only curb Chen Guo's conspiracy, but also promote the style of our Great Qin Dynasty, why not do it?"

Facing the emperor's monstrous anger, Xie Ge said bravely.

"You, you, you... You sounded good. If you give up the right to hold the grand event, where will my Daqin's face be? How will the world think about my Daqin royal family and the emperor?"

The emperor was in a rage, and he seemed unable to listen to anything. He just kept getting angry. Wei Zehang couldn't bear it anymore, and stood up with a whoosh: "There is only face when we have strength. Do we have it now?"

"Wei Zehang!"

This was said in an extremely blunt manner, the emperor's eyes were about to burst, the three elders remained silent, Wei Zehang's words were a bit rough, but that's the reason, isn't it?Without strength, what face is there to talk about?

When they went out from the backyard, it was almost a stick of incense. Seeing them appear, the hall miraculously quieted down. From the emperor to the old man to Wei Zehang, the expressions of the five people all changed. It was so beautiful, it seemed that the conversation was not pleasant, but no one cared about the process, and all the people present wanted to know the result.

"Since Prince Chen insists on deciding a result, I will agree with you. It is not impossible for Prince Chen to choose an opponent, but the competition must be decided by the person he selects. What does Prince Chen think?"

In the end, no matter how angry the emperor was, he still compromised. Such things as strength were on the surface, not because he pretended not to see them and then they didn't exist.

"can."

With an almost indiscernible flash in his eyes, Chen Zhiyuan glanced at Pei Yuanlie and his wife on the opposite side before nodding with a smile.

"There is one more thing I want to say up front. If there is still no way to decide between them, then this matter will be dropped, and it cannot continue endlessly."

"no problem."

This time, Chen Zhiyuan answered very simply, and seemed to be very confident. The emperor suppressed his impatience, and said as calmly as possible: "Then ask Prince Chen to choose the person you want to challenge."

As soon as the voice fell, Chen Zhiqi stood up again, and his beautiful and seductive eyes slowly swept across the seats where the family members of civil and military ministers gathered on the opposite side. Almost all the younger generations of Daqin became nervous, for fear that they would be picked, no matter how young they were. Casually, he also knows that this competition is a hot potato, if he is not careful, he may lose his life, and even hurt his family.

"It is said that Princess Qingping has both ability and political integrity, and is unparalleled in the world. This palace wants to challenge him!"

Looking around for a week, after Shengsheng lifted all the tension to the extreme, Chen Zhiqi faced the emperor, and pointed his thin white and slender fingers at Shen Liang, who was not taking it seriously at all.

"I?"

Looking up, Shen Liang pointed at himself and blinked in a daze. He has both ability and political integrity, and is unparalleled in the world. Are you sure he is talking about him?Who in Daqin doesn't know that he is proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy, calligraphy, martial arts, riding and shooting?
