When people were in Qin, the advantage was mine

Chapter 22: Old things, why bring them up?

……

It was noon, the sun was shining brightly, and envoys from the six kingdoms of Han, Zhao, Wei, Chu, Yan, and Qi had arrived at a temporary camp in front of Hangu Pass.

The envoys from the State of Qin also arrived late, led by Ying Chen.

"Uncle, I can understand that envoys from the five kingdoms of Han, Zhao, Wei, Chu, and Yan are here, but why are Qi here here? Also, why did they come so quickly?" Cheng Jiao, who was following Ying Chen, asked softly.

Qi State did not participate in the war, and Qi State was far away from Hangu Pass. Peace talks with the coalition were only confirmed less than half a month ago. Why did Qi State's envoys arrive so quickly?

"They have been here a long time ago." Ying Chen said.

"I had already sent a message to Qi when I set out from Xianyang. If we don't want to be robbed by the five-nation coalition again, Qi had better take the initiative."

"Robbing Qi?" Cheng Jiao was stunned.

His teacher had told him that the Three Jin and Chu states would indeed go to Qi State every time they lost a battle with the Qin State, and the Zhao State would also rob the Yan State, and no one could defeat the Yan State. Can expand land to the north.

But this time, it’s not considered a defeat, right?

"Isn't Qi State still providing logistics for the coalition forces? Why would the coalition forces rob Qi State?" Cheng Jiao was puzzled.

"Why do you think Qi State provides logistics to the coalition forces?" Ying Chen asked.

The Qi State of today is no longer the Qi State of decades ago. Since the five countries joined Qi, the country has completely lost its backbone.

If the bones of the Three Jin and Chu Kingdoms were broken by Bai Qi in the previous decades, then the entry of the Five Kingdoms into Qi State could be said to have had its backbone pulled out!

The other countries can be said to be dogs with broken spines, and they will resist when they are in danger, but in Qi, even if you put a knife on his neck, he may not pay attention to you.

This is a completely rotten country!

"Luoyang Jun, long time no see."

Lord Xinling came up with several leading representatives of the coalition forces.

Don't think that there has been no communication between countries due to frequent wars. Even Zhao and Qin still had normal business exchanges after the Changping War, and even formed alliances many times. Although the time was short-lived, they did not die of old age. Communicate with each other.

Of course, Ying Chen and Lord Xinling have met before. Although it may be hard to believe, Ying Chen has indeed been to Handan. About five years ago, Lord Xinling had a falling out with the King of Wei because he stole a talisman to save Zhao. He did not dare to return to the country and had been hiding in the Kingdom of Zhao. Ying Chen was regarded as a diplomat at that time and went to Handan to sneak out Zhao Ji and Ying Zheng.

At that time, Ying Chen had met the world-famous Lord Xinling.

It is no exaggeration to say that in this era, no one is as famous as Lord Xinling!
Even the other three men who were rated as the Four Young Masters of the Warring States Period by later generations, to put it harshly, being tied with Lord Xinling, really flattered those three guys to a certain extent.

"Mr. Xinling, you are getting old."

Looking at the gray-haired Wei Wuji, if his outline hadn't changed, Ying Chen couldn't believe that the old man with a vicissitudes of life in front of him was the high-spirited Lord Xinling he had seen in Handan five years ago.

"Yes, I'm getting old." Lord Xinling looked bitter.

"The morning is like blue silk and the evening is like snow, I can't see it as clearly as you."

"But I gave you a chance." Ying Chen said.

After Meng Ao failed in the battle with Lord Xinling outside the river, he asked Meng Ao to retreat directly without any further conflict with the coalition forces. He also lost many cities along the way. He gave them all face and honour, but Lord Xinling Pushing the envelope.

"But I didn't expect you to use this kind of trick." Lord Xinling's expression condensed.

Threaten him with millions of people from Sanjin!Even the people of Qin were used as bargaining chips!This madman!

Back in Handan, Ying Chen once told him that birth, old age, illness and death can be seen in a hundred years, dynasties can change in a thousand years, and stars have changed in ten thousand years. Right and wrong, merit and demerit are all temporary illusions, so why worry about the comments of others.

At that time, he thought it was just childish talk and he didn't need to pay attention to it.But later, before Ying Chen left Handan, he actually set his mansion on fire!Then he let his men's snare steal the current Queen Qin mother and son from the prison!
King Zhao originally planned to use the mother and son to make a deal with the State of Qin, and the envoy represented by Ying Chen also came for this purpose, but who would have thought that this guy had no intention of negotiating at all!

He just snatched the person away!

This guy is truly willing to do whatever it takes to achieve his goals!

I really don’t understand why Zhan Lu would choose such a person as the master of the legendary sword of benevolence?

Just like Zhang Yi back then!But Ying Chen is even worse than Zhang Yi!
Zhang Yi is just shameless, but Ying Chen, this guy can really do whatever it takes to achieve his goals!
"But the result is good, isn't it?" Ying Chen smiled.

"If you and I went to war, how many of these young people here would survive?"

"Or, Lord Xinling, taking someone else's life to make your own name, is this your benevolence?"

"..."

"sophistry!"

Lord Xinling turned away angrily and ignored him.

How could Ying Chen not know why he wanted to fight this battle!
If the Qin State is allowed to build water conservancy projects and the Guanzhong Canal is completed, the Qin State will have abundant grain and grass and sufficient soldiers and armor. How can the six Shandong countries resist?

Han, Zhao, Wei, and the Three Jin Dynasties are the battlegrounds for the Qin State to go east. How can Han and Wei resist the Qin army's attack because they are weak?

Wei Wuji is famous among the six kingdoms of Shandong, but he is the Xinling Lord of Wei after all!

Can he allow Qin to destroy his country?

And he fought this battle with the determination to ruin his reputation!Who knew Ying Chen would use such a despicable trick? !
"Old men have bad tempers."

Ying Chen turned to look at the generals of the other countries, but when they saw Ying Chen's malicious smile, everyone turned around quickly and trotted all the way to catch up with Lord Xinling.

"..."

"Uncle, they seem to be afraid of you?" Cheng Jiao asked doubtfully.

"Who knows." Ying Chen didn't comment and led everyone to follow him.

Haven't you just beaten them several times before?As for this?

We've fought together, so we can be considered comrades, right?
When I saw an old friend, I didn’t even say hello...

……

In the big tent, as the leading figure in the coalition, Lord Xinling was supposed to be sitting in the main seat. However, because he thought of what would happen next, Lord Xinling withdrew the seat to avoid waiting. It will be embarrassing.

After a relatively friendly opening remarks, the peace talks officially began.

"Ahem! As the mastermind behind this peace negotiation, I would like to say a few words first."

Ying Chen raised his hand to interrupt the argument between Yao Jia and others.

"What are you talking about?" Lord Xinling, who was sitting opposite Ying Chen, had a bad premonition.

"First of all, our country of Qin has recently passed away, so you will raise unjust troops to attack our country of Qin." Ying Chen said.

"Isn't this somewhat inappropriate?"
