Said: "Duke Qi, King Chu, Zheng Yeyuan is willing to go with the army."

Wu Jiu looked at Wang Zizheng, and said with a smile: "The prince is a man of gold, if he goes out with the army, and there are three mistakes, how can I explain to the emperor?"

Wang Zizheng thought that Wu Jiu was unwilling to let him go, but Wang Zizheng came out this time to make meritorious deeds, and only after establishing meritorious deeds can Wang Zizheng return to Luoshi and see Ji Lang again.

Wang Zizheng is eager to make meritorious service, this is a great opportunity, so Wang Zizheng wants to join the army.

The prince Zheng Gang wanted to ask for orders again, but he didn't know that Wu Jiao didn't want him to go, so he continued to say with a smile: "If the prince has any troubles, the emperor will definitely not let the widow go, so... the widow will hand over the six soldiers of Ruo Ao to the prince. , Prince please lead the army, cooperate with the Shan Jiang army, and definitely defeat the Lu army!"

Wang Zizheng did not expect that Wu Jiao would hand over the six soldiers of the Ruoao family of Chu to him as soon as he came up. He felt very grateful in his heart, feeling his blood was boiling, and immediately cupped his hands and said, "Thank you, King, for your consideration! Zheng Ding lived up to expectations." !"

Qihou smiled and said: "Okay, now that Youzi is leading the army with the prince, there is nothing wrong with it. Now it is time to plan to send troops. Can you think about it?"

Everyone fell into silence, and looked at each other, because when it comes to this, Lu State has already taken the lead, and their soldiers and horses are about to arrive at Jiagu Mountain, while Qi State's soldiers and horses have not yet ordered soldiers, Qi State has already lost the opportunity, you know The first opportunity to fight is very important.

Although Qi State has soldiers and horses, it is not easy to counterattack Lu State. After all, everyone wants to minimize the loss. If the loss is ignored, the counterattack can indeed be successful, but it will also cause heavy damage to Qi State, so the gain outweighs the loss.

Everyone was silent for a moment, Wu Jiao looked at the map on the case, and said, "I remember... Is there a Great Wall on Jiagu Mountain?"

The Qi Great Wall is the oldest Great Wall in history. The Great Wall is not the patent of Qin Shihuang, but Qin Shihuang developed the Great Wall to the extreme.

In the early and middle years of the Spring and Autumn Period, wars among countries continued to be frequent, and Qi was in an unprecedentedly powerful period, so there was a lot of money to build the Great Wall. Guan Yiwu advocated building the Great Wall at Jiagu Mountain.

The main peak of Jiagu Mountain is about 300 meters above sea level, neither too high nor too short, and the terrain just stretches east-west, separating Qi and Lu, which is a dividing line.

Because the terrain of Jiagu Mountain is very powerful, it can be used as a barrier, so Guan Yiwu ordered people to build a Qi Great Wall on Jiagu Mountain according to the continuous terrain.

However, the Great Wall of Qi cannot be completed by the achievements of a generation. The current Great Wall of Qi is still under construction, and it has only been started for a few years. It is only taking shape and has no protective effect at all.

Wu Jiu suddenly mentioned the Great Wall of Qi, Guan Yiwu stood up, cupped his hands and said, "Indeed, there is. Yiwu is in charge of building the Great Wall, but the Great Wall is only in its infancy and has not been successfully built. If the King of Chu wants to use the Great Wall to To resist the Lu army, I'm afraid..."

When he said that, Wu Jiao smiled, rubbed his chin and said, "If it's not fixed, if it is fixed, then we will feel bad."

Everyone looked at Wu Jiu suspiciously, Wu Jiu stretched out his hand to point Jiagu Mountain with a smile on his face, and said: "Although Jiagu Mountain is not steep, it is a continuous mountain, easy to defend and difficult to attack. Now that the Lu army has dispatched troops, we have lost our pioneering position." Therefore, if we mobilize our soldiers and horses to fight back, I am afraid it will fall into the arms of the State of Lu..."

After his analysis, everyone immediately nodded, it was true.

Wu Jiu continued: "Therefore, the widow advocates that a vanguard should lead the army and send a small detachment. The number should not be large, at most 2000 people, and rush to Jiagu Mountain at high speed. Using the unbuilt Great Wall as a cover, resettle black soldiers. Gunpowder, sneak attack and ambush those Lu troops who are coming up the mountain, scare them away first, and hinder the advance speed of the Lu troops."

Everyone nodded, and finally understood why Wu Jiu said that it would be best if the Great Wall hadn't been built, because they had to use black powder and use the "construction site" as a cover. Yi can't tell...

Everyone finalized the battle plan, and also finalized the candidates. Shan Zi is leading the army and preparing to confront the Lu army head-on, while Prince Zheng is leading Ruo Ao's six soldiers for two years, preparing to go straight to Jiagu Mountain, ambush the Lu army on the mountain, and bomb them A piece of armor is not left behind.

Everyone discussed the detailed plan, and it was already midnight. The court meeting started at dusk and lasted until midnight, and then everyone left one after another. Wu Jiu was so tired that he didn't wash up after returning, so he just fell asleep and fell asleep as soon as he fell asleep. big day.

When Wu Jiu opened his eyes in a daze, he found that Marquis Qi was not by his side. He turned his head to look, and was still a little confused. After waking up for a while, his consciousness slowly came back, and he realized that he was not sleeping in the dormitory of Chu State. Instead, he slept in the small sleeping palace of Qi State, on the couch of Marquis Qi.

Marquis Qi was not there, and the clothes next to him were also gone. As soon as Wu Jiu got up, he heard Yan E's surprised voice, saying: "Your Majesty!"

As soon as Wu Jiu raised his head, he saw Yan'e trotting over. Yan'e had been staying in Qi Palace, because Qi State and Chu State were far apart, and the journey was tiring, so Wu Jiu didn't take Yan'e to Chu State. Counting it, Yan E hasn't seen Wu Jiu for a long time.

Wu Jiu was naturally pleasantly surprised when he saw Yan E, but he hadn't changed his clothes yet, only wearing obscene clothes, and quickly covered himself with a quilt, still very embarrassed.

Not seeing each other for such a long time, Yan'e also grew her body. Not only did Crown Prince Zhao grow taller, Yan'e also grew a lot taller, and her face became more graceful and beautiful. Before that, Yan'e was the kind of person who was not outstanding in appearance, but was very cute. The girl who is so happy now seems to have grown into a woman in an instant, and her figure is also much more graceful.

Wu Jiu had the illusion that his daughter had grown up, and when he saw Yan'e like this, he felt even more embarrassed, so he quickly covered himself.

Yan'e didn't feel embarrassed, she rushed over and said, "Your Majesty, the servant girl can see you now! Your Majesty, you are getting thinner."

Wu Jiu smiled and said, "Yan'e looks pretty."

When Yan E heard Wu Jiu praise her so much, she immediately laughed, but she couldn't die. At this time, Qi Hou walked in from the outside, Wu Zheng smiled, and felt a hot and resentful gaze. Looking up, it turned out to be Qihou!

Qi Hou also smiled, but his smile was particularly sinister, and said: "Yan'e is indeed more beautiful, but I feel that she is still not as good-looking as my second brother."

Yan'e actually agreed and said: "The servant girl also thinks that the king is more and more beautiful. He must have become the king of Chu, and his bearing is not normal!"

Yan'e didn't hear about Qihou's grievances at all, so Wu Jiu could only cough dryly. At this time, someone came to look for Qihou, it should be about the Lu country, Qihou nodded and said, "I'll be there in a while."

The eunuch quickly withdrew, and Qi Hou said to Wu Jiu: "Second brother, I sent someone to fetch Di'er into the palace. Ziwen and Di'er are about the same age, so it's just right for them to play and play. Isn't the second brother Do you miss Di'er too?"

Wu Jiu didn't expect Qi Hou to call Di'er into the palace. He naturally missed Di'er, and he missed Di'er very much. When he thought of the cute little Di'er who was soft and soft when he cried, Wu Jiao really missed... Squeeze Xiao Di'er's meaty face.

Qihou said: "Because of the affairs of the State of Lu, Gu may be a bit busy these days, so the second brother will play with Di'er for a while."

Wu Jiu nodded and said, "Your Majesty, you don't need to worry about Jiu, business is important."

Qihou smiled, leaned forward and kissed Wu Jiu's forehead, and said, "Second brother is really virtuous."

Wu Jiu rolled his eyes at him, but Yan'e laughed beside him, as if lamenting that the relationship between Qihou and Wu Jiu is still so good.

Qihou quickly left in a hurry, Wu Jiao went to find Xiao Ziwen, let Xiao Ziwen and Xiao Di'er meet, both were Wu Jiu's adopted sons, Xiao Ziwen was calm and mature, while Xiao Di'er was cute, The two children must be stubborn.

Wu Jiu also left the small bedroom and found Xiao Ziwen. Xiao Ziwen entered the Qi Palace yesterday for the first time. He felt very fresh. He didn't sleep all night, playing with the big white wolf in his arms.

Although Xiao Ziwen looks old and has facial paralysis, in fact Xiao Ziwen is in the restless period of a child. It is only because he has no parents since he was a child and was abused by Lu Guo that he became old.

Xiao Ziwen felt very fresh. He played with Big White Wolf all night, and Big White Wolf wanted to sleep, but the little master was extremely excited and wanted to play hard with him.

Dabai fell asleep several times, but Xiao Ziwen picked him up by the ear, without the dignity of a wolf, like a sleigh three fools.

After Dabai fell asleep for a while, it was dawn, and Xiao Ziwen jumped up and down immediately, ready to start playing, Dabai couldn't open his eyes, his ice blue eyes were squinting, his big head moved little by little, boy Wen Ze rode on Dabai's back, rubbed its head and ears, and said with concern: "Dabai, are you sick? Why are you not energetic?"

Dabai seems to be psychic, and can understand Xiaoziwen's words, but he can't speak, he can only yell pitifully twice, he really wants to sleep, he really wants to sleep...

Xiao Ziwen was worried about Dabai's "dog body", when he heard footsteps approaching, Xiao Ziwen was raised by a tigress when he was a child, so his sense of smell and hearing are very sensitive, Wu Jiao has not yet walked in, Xiao Ziwen has already Knowing who was coming, he immediately abandoned Dabai, skipped and left.

Dabai was still disgusted with the little master for not letting him sleep just now, but as soon as Xiao Ziwen ran away, Dabai immediately raised his head, opened his ice-blue eyes, rushed over quickly, and ran out after Xiao Ziwen.

Xiao Ziwen plunged into Wu Jiu's arms and said, "Daddy."

Wu Jiu lifted Xiao Ziwen up and said, "Come to Ziwen, Daddy will introduce you to a younger brother, okay?"

Xiao Ziwen looked at Wu Jiu strangely, and said, "Daddy, what is a younger brother?"

Wu Jiu smiled and said, "It's a very cute and cute little boy. Di'er is younger than you, Ziwen, so Ziwen, you have to give way to Di'er."

Xiao Ziwen didn't quite understand, he was very cute, very cute, and he didn't know what it meant, so Wu Jiu carried Xiao Ziwen and walked forward, and soon came to the garden.

Xiao Di'er is going to the palace today to meet her adoptive father. Xiao Di'er has not seen her adoptive father for a long time, and she misses her very much. When she suddenly heard that her adoptive father is back, she is naturally very happy, and she entered the palace early in the morning. .

Yi Ya sent Xiao Di'er to the gate of the palace, but didn't enter the palace, but just made Xiao Di'er obedient.

Xiao Di'er raised her neck and said to Yi Ya: "Daddy, why don't you enter the palace? Daddy doesn't want foster father?"

Yi Ya rubbed Xiao Di'er's head, and said: "Good boy, Di'er just be stubborn, Daddy won't enter the palace anymore."

In fact, Yi Ya knew that the fact that he had pretended to lose his memory had been exposed, and he would enter the palace as little as possible. If he really entered the palace, it might cause Qi Hou's displeasure.

Xiao Di'er was going to play in the palace. Hearing that her adoptive father had brought a big brother, Xiao Di'er was very happy. Ning Qi also heard the news, and suddenly felt a little crisis. After all, big brother or something, he is Big brother, suddenly there is another big brother, how can Ning Qi not be in danger?

Therefore, Ning Qi followed Xiao Di'er like a follower, and must also enter the palace.

It has been about two years since I brought Ning Qi and Xiao Di'er back. Ning Qi has grown a lot taller, and Xiao Di'er is still a small meat bun. Although Yi Ya and Gongsun Xipeng are not Di'er's biological fathers, they love Di'er Di'er loves me very much, the longer Di'er grows, the cuter she becomes, and the longer she grows, the more fleshy she is, her cheeks are white, tender and chubby, and she is a head shorter than Ning Qi.

Ning Qi is more like a big brother by his side. Although Ning Qi always bullies Xiao Di'er and makes Xiao Di'er cry, Xiao Di'er still likes Brother Ning Qi.

Ning Qi took Xiao Di'er's hand, nagging Xiao Di'er disgustingly that he was too stupid, afraid that he would get lost, and at the same time told Xiao Di'er not to really get lost, and hold on to himself.

The two little guys came into the palace, and soon arrived in the garden, Xiao Di'er saw her adoptive father at first glance, and immediately pulled away Ning Qi's hand, and a series of cheerful "da da da" jumped over, This made Ning Qi feel so lost...

Xiao Di'er jumped over and shouted childishly: "Father!"

Wu Jiu turned his head and saw that Xiao Di'er had already arrived, he was almost cut off, Xiao Di'er was still chubby, she was really cute, compared to Ning Qi and Xiao Ziwen, Xiao Di'er seemed like a The child speaks in a childish voice, and moves very cutely and childishly.

Wu Jiu hurriedly stretched out his hand to hug Xiao Di'er, one in each hand, and let Xiao Di'er and Xiao Ziwen sit on his arms, feeling that he was really rich.

Xiao Di'er bit her finger, seemed a little nervous, and looked at Xiao Ziwen. After all, he had never seen other children except Ning Qi, so he was very curious.

Xiao Ziwen also looked at Xiao Di'er, although his face was very cold and paralyzed, but he thought in his heart that this younger brother is really cute...

Thinking of this, Xiao Ziwen leaned over, stretched out his hand, and pinched Xiao Di'er's cheek decisively.

Flesh, bouncy, slippery...

Wu Jiu was stunned for a moment, as expected of his own son, Xiao Ziwen did what Wu Jiu always wanted to do, Xiao Di'er was also stunned, because he was pinched by Xiao Ziwen on the cheek and blinked his big eyes, But instead of getting angry, he giggled, moved his little rubbing face closer, and let Xiao Ziwen rub it.

Ning Qi stood on the ground, looked up at the two little fellows, and immediately pinched his wrists angrily. Di'er refused to let him pinch his cheeks, but sent it to the brat himself to pinch his cheeks. Ning Qi was really mad at him.

Xiao Di'er and Xiao Ziwen got along friendly very quickly, but Wu Jiu was too weak to hold the two little guys, so he put them down and let them be stubborn.

It's not just Ning Qi who is complaining, Dabai is also complaining, feeling that he is about to fall out of favor, so he immediately leans over to hug Xiao Ziwen.

Xiao Dier suddenly saw a big white dog rushing out, she was scared and hid back, and ran behind Ning Qi in an instant, grabbing his lapel and trembling.

To be honest, the Great White Wolf is too big, its stature can be said to be [-] times that of the same kind. It is also the first time Ning Qi has seen such a big wolf. After all, he is not big, so he is also afraid, but in order to show his heroism , Immediately opened his hand to protect Xiao Dier, and said: "No, no, no... don't be afraid, there is... there is me..."

Wu Jiu was next to him, very shameless, and burst out laughing with a "puchi".

Xiao Ziwen quickly patted Big White Wolf on the head and said, "Don't be afraid, Big White doesn't bite."

Xiao Di'er poked his head out a little bit, and looked at the big white wolf curiously. The big white wolf sat on the ground very obediently, wagging his tail at them, with a half-hearted look on his face, not majestic at all, and very flattering.

Little Di'er said, "Brother Ziwen, is this your puppy?"

Xiao Ziwen thought for a while, he was a wolf, but for Ziwen who was raised by a tigress, dogs and wolves should be similar, so he nodded.

Dabai doesn't care about being called a dog at all, because Dabai doesn't even know the difference between himself and a dog...

Little Di'er immediately said enviously: "Brother Ziwen, you are amazing! Di'er...Can Di'er pet it? The puppy is so cute!"

Ning Qi's heart is about to explode the Three Character Classic, what?cute?Is this great white wolf still cute?I don't know if there is something wrong with Di'er's eyes, I want to find Tang Wu to see if I'm sick!

Xiao Ziwen patted Dabai's head again, Dabai had a coquettish look on his face, he was very aggressive, and immediately fell to the ground, turned his belly, wagged his tail, and showed his favor to Ziwen, Xiao Ziwen even stretched out his hand to rub his furry white belly.

When Dabai was rubbed, he couldn't feel comfortable immediately, and his big pointed mouth screamed "oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo".

Seeing Dabai acting like a baby, Xiao Dier was even more happy, and said, "Brother Ziwen, you are so amazing!"

As Xiao Di'er said, she wasn't afraid any more, so she ran over and squatted down, looked at the coquettish Dabai, and stretched out her hand to touch it, but Dabai didn't resist.

When Ning Qi saw it, he felt very disgusted, because his image had always been tall and majestic, suddenly a Ziwen ran out, and that brat stole the limelight.

Ning Qi rolled his eyes, turned around and ran away.

Wu Jiao looked at the three little guys, and felt pretty good. He hadn't relaxed so much for a long time. Xiao Di'er was a little surprised to see that Ning Qi's brother had disappeared. At this moment, Ning Qi came back again.

In order to save face, Ning Qi came up with a trick, so he ran to the dining room, grabbed a large piece of raw meat, and then ran back.

"Ow!"

For a moment, Dabai seemed to smell the smell of raw meat, and jumped up, and the little Dier who made the offering "Boom!" fell down and sat on the ground, not knowing what happened.

Dabai was still turning his stomach and acting coquettishly just now, but suddenly jumped up, which also startled Ziwen.

Seeing Dabai jumping up suddenly, frantically shaking his halazi and running away, Ziwen looked up and saw Ning Qi holding a large piece of raw meat and putting it on the ground, Dabai ran over like a dog, Xilihulu ate it That raw meat.

Ning Qi crossed his arms, looking like a little adult, standing on the side very proudly, actually very nervous inside, but with a very relaxed face, he raised his hand to touch Dabai's head, Dabai was eating meat, so he didn't have time to talk to Ning Qi, Just letting him stroke it twice, Xiao Di'er opened her eyes wide in surprise, and finally said: "Brother Ning Qi, you are so amazing! The puppy is so close to you!"

Ning Qi's legs are actually weak, after all, Dabai is too big, Xili snores while eating meat, and the meat residue splashes on Ning Qi's legs, but he said: "Then... that's of course..."

Xiao Ziwen felt helpless looking at the gluttonous Dabai, whistled, Dabai quickly ate the meat in two bites, and then came back wagging his tail, while Xiao Ziwen said, "Don't eat casually, you are too fat."

Dabai was "humiliated" by Xiao Ziwen, but he didn't understand it, thinking that the little master was being stubborn with him.

Wu Jiao looked at the three little guys and couldn't help but laugh, especially Ning Qi was trembling while proudly accepting Xiao Di'er's compliment, Wu Jiao laughed so hard that his stomach hurts.

Wu Jiu was playing with the three little guys, Zhao Hu and Dong Guo Ya passed by, just happened to see Wu Jiu, Zhao Hu immediately came over excitedly and said hello, "Master!"

Dong Guoya also came over and said, "Dr. Zhao is biased. Now he should be called the King of Chu."

Wu Jiu smiled and said, "In front of Master Zhao and Master Dong Guo, Jiu will always be a student, no matter how you call him, it's the same."

Zhao Hu hadn't seen Wu Jiu for a long time, and he missed him so much, he couldn't hold back, and gave Wu Jiu a big hug, Wu Jiao was surprised, but he still hugged Zhao Hu back.

Zhaohu said: "Young master, you have been away for so long, you can see how much Zhaohu misses you."

Wu Jiao was still smiling, and suddenly felt a faint gaze. When he looked up, he happened to collide with Dong Guoya's gaze. Wu Jiao coughed lightly, and said, "Cough...Jiao, Jiao is very serious. I miss Master Zhao... let's sit down and talk."

Wu Jiu hurriedly asked Zhao Hu to sit down, and everyone sat in the small building, letting the three little guys play.

Zhaohu seemed to have a lot of things he wanted to say to Wu Jiao, and asked a series of questions, but in the end the question fell on the matter of Lu State attacking Qi State. Don't worry?"

Wu Jiu smiled and said, "Don't worry about Jiu, and you don't have to worry about Master Zhao, because this time Lu...will definitely be defeated."

Zhao Hu was surprised and said: "Defeated?"

Wu Jiu nodded and said: "Now that Qi State is in a strong position, many countries either have good relations with Qi State or ask Qi State for help. The neighboring states of Zhu and Song can help Qi State to harass Lu State. There is an order from the emperor who just took office, so this time Qi State attacked Lu State, it was justified, fighting and raising troops, the most concerned is this talk, Qi State is to defend the country, also known as Zhengyanshun, now there are With so many talents, how can we be defeated when we are united as one?”

When Zhao Hu heard Wu Jiu's analysis, he immediately felt very reasonable and relaxed a little.

Seeing that Zhaohu and Dong Guoya were fine, Wu Jiao said with a smile: "Well, the two masters will help look after the child, and Jiao will go to the dining room."

When Zhao Hu heard about the child, he was very nervous because he didn't know how to look at the child, but Dong Guoya cupped his hands and said, "Your Majesty, please let me go."

Wu Jiu had promised to cook chicken for Qihou before, but Qihou suddenly became greedy for it, but after that, a lot of time happened and he was very busy. After Qihou returned to his country, he was busy with the invasion of Lu, so he never had time to relax. .

Wu Jiu had nothing to do, so he naturally wanted to satisfy Marquis Qi.

Wu Jiu entrusted Zhaohu and Dong Guoya to take care of the children, and went to the dining room by himself. He was going to make a dish with chicken as the main ingredient, which was delicious and filling, and Qihou had never eaten it before. Get up and clap your hands.

That's naturally... a large plate of chicken.

Wu Jiao walked into the dining room, but he didn't expect that the cooks in the dining room didn't change much. When they saw him coming in, they were all shocked, their movements froze, and they gathered around and said, "King Chu! King Chu!"

Many cooks put down their work and came to visit Wu Jiu. Wu Jiu was frightened by the enthusiasm, hurried everyone to stand up, and said with a smile: "I just come here casually, everyone should be busy with your own work, be careful." The vegetables are burnt."

The cooks dispersed for a while and went to their own business. Wu Jiao had a purpose this time. He didn't plan to use leftovers for Qihou. Naturally, he wanted to find some ingredients. The cooks were very enthusiastic. If Wu Jiao wanted anything, immediately I found it.

Because Wu Jiu stayed in Qi State's dining room for a long time, the ingredients and condiments here are the most comprehensive, and Wu Jiu has everything he wants to find.

Wu Jiao got a few fresh chickens, and the chef handled them for Wu Jiao, and cut them into small pieces. Wu Jiao only needs the drumsticks. The meat of this part is delicious and firm, and the big plate chicken is delicious. .

Because there were no green or red peppers or potatoes in this era, Wu Jiao found some other ingredients to replace. After the ingredients were prepared, the noodles were ready. The wide noodles were naturally placed under the big plate chicken, which was authentic and delicious. The taste of gluten and the aroma of chicken, dipped in the sauce and sent to the mouth, the wide noodles also become meaty, and the aftertaste is naturally endless.

Wu Jiao specially kneaded the wide noodles to be very chewy, and spread them on the bottom after a while, so that the taste of the broth was tainted, and it tasted smooth and tough. Wu Jiao likes to eat the wide noodles below when he eats big plate chicken.

Wu Jiao worked on it for a long time. While kneading the dough, he spread the chicken evenly with the seasoning and marinated it for a while to ensure that the chicken was not dry and tasty.

The weather was still cold, Wu Jiao chattered for a long time, and felt that he was sweating profusely. Finally, he put the wide noodles on the bottom of the plate, and then poured the finished big plate chicken into the plate, and arranged the plate a little bit. It looks bright in color, and a salty and spicy chicken aroma comes out with the hot steam, which looks very appetizing.

Wu Jiao put the big plate chicken, and then he was going to see if Marquis Qi was free.

Wu Jiu was carrying a large plate of chicken and went to the small bedroom, just in time to see Gongsun Xipeng coming out of the small bedroom, Gongsun Xipeng immediately smelled a fragrant smell, this smell is very strange, hard to describe, but very overbearing.

Gongsun Xipeng said with a smile, "Your Majesty is free, and the King of Chu is just in time."

Wu Jiu walked into the small bedroom. Qihou was reading the paperwork, and there was a pile of paperwork by his hand. As soon as Wu Jiu walked in, Qihou raised his head immediately, and said with a smile: "What did the second brother do again?" , so fragrant."

Wu Jiu put the big plate chicken on the case, and then lifted the lid. The yellowish amber color was wrapped in bright chicken thighs, and there were a lot of side dishes in it. A strong fragrance, very overbearing, rushed to the nose, delicious full.

Wu Jiu smiled and said, "It's the chicken your majesty wants to eat."

When Qi Hou heard this, he almost forgot, that day when Ji Lang invited them to a banquet, there was a plate of chicken on the table, it was just ordinary grilled chicken, but Qi Hou was greedy for it, and then he forgot, who would have known that Wu Jiao actually So caring.

When Qi Hou heard this, he immediately became happy, let Wu Jiu sit next to him, and said with a smile: "Second brother thinks about Gu like this, and being lonely makes me happy."

Wu Jiu handed the chopsticks to Marquis Qi, and said, "Your Majesty, you might as well taste it to see if the one made by Jiu is delicious, or the one made by Luo Shiwang Palace."

Qihou smiled and said, "Second brother must have made delicious food."

He said, pick up a piece of chicken, what Wu Jiao made today is not leftovers, every piece of chicken thigh meat is carefully selected by Wu Jiao, Qi Hou picked up a piece and put it in his mouth, but just biting it, he felt It is different, and it is definitely not comparable to the roast chicken in the palace.

I don’t know what method is used to process the chicken, but it is not firewood at all, the meat is firm and delicious, very elastic, you can feel it, the meat quality is very good, plus the thick layer of sauce wrapped outside, the ingredients are processed Cooked for a long time, the condensed sauce tightly wraps the chicken, and every bite is full of flavor.

Qihou's eyes suddenly lit up, he didn't speak, he ate two pieces first, spit out the bones of the drumstick meat, and then said vaguely: "Second brother is delicious, second brother is delicious!"

Wu Jiu didn't even need to listen to him, just look at Qi Hou's eyes, and Wu Jiu said with a smile: "Your Majesty, don't be in a hurry to eat meat, there are also wide noodles to eat."

The wide noodles below are also called belt noodles, which are made to be as thick as a belt, so that it tastes good enough.

Qi Hou didn't know that there were noodles under the chicken. After all, it looked like a meat dish, so Qi Hou picked up the chopsticks and moved it. Sure enough, there was a layer of white raw meat under the large pieces of chicken thigh meat. wide noodles.

The wide noodles are white and tender. In Qihou's eyes, they look like the cheeks of his second brother. They are neatly placed underneath, stained with the rich sauce on them. When Qihou sees them, he is particularly appetizing.

Qihou is a very typical person. There must be a staple food when eating. This big plate chicken Wu Jiu chose really well. The rich taste is suitable for Qihou, and it also has a staple food, which is not monotonous to eat.

Qi Hou couldn't wait to clamp a piece of wide noodles, which was wide and long, without any breakage. When he put it in his mouth, he felt that it was slippery and the tendons were tough, as if he would voluntarily run into his throat.

Qihou didn't talk for a while, and kept his head buried in eating hard. Wu Jiao felt a sense of accomplishment when he saw how Qihou was eating, and he didn't need to ask.

Qi Hou ate a large plate of chicken in one go, and the wide noodles below, and even ate all the ingredients on the plate, and almost drank all the extra sauce. a feeling of.

After Qi Hou ate, he drank a sip of tea, and seemed to be still relishing the deliciousness of the big plate chicken. Wu Jiao saw that there was a cat's beard hanging around his mouth, so he took a handkerchief and wiped off the mask on his mouth. Once people saw it, the prestige of Marquis Qi would be ruined.

Qi Hou stretched out his hand and grabbed Wu Jiu's wrist. Without the cat's beard, he became the handsome and handsome King of Qi again, and said with a low smile, "Second brother, if you say Gu, you should just abdicate and give up the throne to Zhao'er." , and then go with you to the state of Chu to have a soft meal, how about it?"

Wu Jiao shuddered when he heard this, and raised his head to look at Qihou in shock. Qihou was smiling. The words seemed to be true, but Wu Jiao knew that as long as he said "yes", Qihou might really abdicate.

Just when the two looked at each other, Gongsun Xipeng went and came back, and hurried in, saying, "Your Majesty!! Your Majesty's good news! Good news from the front line!"

Gongsun Xipeng ran in suddenly, and Qi Hou had no choice but to let go of his hand and said, "Oh? There is a good news so soon?"

Gongsun Xipeng hurriedly handed the document to Marquis Qi, Marquis Qi glanced at it, then laughed loudly, then handed it to Wu Jiu, saying, "Second brother, look, the country of Lu has given up!"

Wu Jiu took the document and looked at it. Although Prince Zheng was leading the army for the first time, he defeated the Lu army and wiped out the Lu army at Jiaguguan. There was no room for them to use their abilities, and Shan Zizheng's army quickly followed up with support. The State of Lu had lost its helmet and armor, and had already returned to the place south of the Great Wall of Qi.

It was also written in the document that the State of Lu did not dare to fight any more, and if they wanted to negotiate peace, they might send envoys to discuss it in detail in the near future.

Wu Jiu smiled and said, "This is inevitable."

Sure enough, the next day, Zhou Fu, who was acting as the Grand Sima, came to see Marquis Qi, and brought an official peace request document from the State of Lu, which stated that the State of Lu intended to seek peace, and Wen Jiang, the mother of the State of Lu, reprimanded Duke Lu. He deliberately apologized to Marquis Qi for his reckless behavior, saying that he wanted Marquis Qi to let Lu go on the sidelines because Qi and Lu were in-laws for generations.

Not only that, they are willing to send their envoy, Prince Ji, to express their sincerity, and they want to invite Qihou to Jiagu Mountain, where they will meet with Qihou.

To say they are envoys is actually not as simple as envoys. To put it bluntly, they are hostages.

Young Master Ji's status is very noble. He is the brother of the same father and the same mother as the current King of Lu. Gongzi Qingfu is different, Duke Lu reuses Gongzi Qingfu because Gongzi Qingfu has something to use, while Lu Gong reuses Gongzi Ji because Gongzi Ji and himself are blood relatives, so there is no need to worry about it.

This time Lu Gong sent his son Ji to negotiate peace, and as a hostage of the alliance, it seems that he has spent all his money.

Qihou quickly convened a court meeting, asking everyone to discuss whether to form an alliance with the State of Lu. The result of the meeting was surprisingly unanimous. Everyone chose not to confront the State of Lu head-on, and agreed to the alliance and peace talks.

After all, the State of Lu is the second largest country in the East, and there is the State of Ju covetously next to it. If the State of Qi really directly confronts the State of Lu, although the State of Lu will definitely be wiped out, the overall strength of the State of Qi may be set back by at least five years. Time, wouldn't this give neighboring countries an opportunity to take advantage of?If you want to catch up with these five years, you need five years of hard work, but during these five years, other countries are also making progress, so it is not just a matter of five years.

In this way, everyone felt that they should make peace with the State of Lu, temporarily make peace with the State of Lu, concentrate on dealing with the small neighboring countries, gradually annex the small neighboring countries, increase their own strength, eat the small ones first, and then eat the big ones, This is the correct way of tyranny.

Marquis Qi also thought of this point, and Wu Jiu didn't make any sense. In fact, what made Wu Jiu most at ease was that Duke Lu and Wen Jiang sent son Ji as a hostage. My own brother was joking.

Prince Ji entered the city of Linzi in the spring, and the Marquis of Qi lavishly arranged a banquet for him, entertaining him, not treating him as a hostage at all, but treating him with the courtesy of a courtier.

After Gongzi Ji entered Qi State, Qi State began to prepare for the Jiagu League. Jiagu is on the border of Qi State and Lu State. It is the best choice to form an alliance here, but Jiagu is a mountain. The alliance needs to set up an altar.

Gongsun Xipeng, as the chief minister, needed to go to Jiagu Mountain one month in advance to set up the altar of the Huimeng, so he set off with the Qi army ahead of time.

Since Prince Lu Ji entered Qi, the State of Lu has settled down without any action. He stopped harassing Qi State at all, and asked Prince Ji to bring a large amount of jewels to sue for peace.

Qihou is busy with the meeting of the alliance. When Gongsun Xipeng finishes setting up the altar, Qihou will also go to Jiagu to meet the alliance. At that time, Wu Jiu will go to Jiagu Mountain with Qihou to witness the alliance. After that, Wu Jiu planned to go back to Chu State on the way.

Because Wu Jiu's return to Chu was already on the agenda, he planned to spend more time with Xiao Di'er. After all, Xiao Di'er is Yi Ya's son, and he wants to live with Yi Ya and Gongsun Xipeng.It is impossible for Yi Ya and Gongsun Xipeng to have children in the future, and Wu Jiu has Xiao Ziwen by his side, so it is not easy to take Xiao Di'er away.

This day Yi Ya accompanied Xiao Di'er, and sent Xiao Di'er to the gate of the palace before leaving, but saw a big white wolf rushing out from the side, Yi Ya was startled, but Xiao Di'er was not afraid at all , Immediately said in a childish voice: "Daddy, look! Good dog! Good dog!"

As Xiao Di'er said, she ran over and hugged Dabai's neck, Dabai ran back in fright, and ran behind Xiao Ziwen.

Xiao Ziwen walked out from the gate of the palace. Although he was only a little over six years old, he looked very mature. He was different from the cute Xiao Di'er, and also different from the ruffian Ning Qi who was full of mischief. He looked a bit indifferent. No
