Chapter 134
The fragrance of Beileye's barbecue slowly spread out from the fire, steaming hot air, constantly invading the emperor's taste buds. The emperor's sexy lips had already opened and almost bite the fragrant fire-fried meat.
At this moment, the temple man ran in panic. The emperor didn't bite it, but almost bit his tongue.
The emperor's face suddenly became cold and he said, "Gongsun Wuzhi? Wasn't he driven out by me last night? How could he have the face to come back?"
Last night, the emperor drove all the Qi delegations out. On the one hand, it was because the prince Zhuer assassinated Qi Lu, which angered the emperor. In fact, the emperor had another plan, and it was not as simple as Gongsun Wuzhi's admiration for Qi Lu.
Gongsun Wuzhi was also one of the heirs of Qi State. Although he was the nephew of the Duke of Qi, and not the son of the Duke of Qi, Lufu of Qi was favored by ignorance, and everyone in the world knew it. Now that Gongsun Wuzhi learned about Qi Lu's true identity, the emperor was cautious. It was difficult to guarantee that Gongsun Wuzhi would not be ruthless, and he was like the princes and others, and planned to assassinate Qi Lu and kill the roots.
After all, Qi Lu is famous and has made great achievements. If the prince Zhuer and Gongsun Wuzhi are comparable to each other, then Qi Lu will definitely crush Gongsun Wuzhi and Prince Zhuer.
Although Gongsun Wuzhi seems to be difficult to become a climate, the emperor is no longer the simple emperor back then. He always has to be careful and be prepared for any trouble, so he is eager to drive Gongsun Wuzhi out of Luo Shi.
Unexpectedly, Gongsun Wuzhi, who left, came back in just one night and one morning.
The temple people came in a hurry and shouted loudly. If Gongsun Wuzhi was just back, he wouldn't have shouted loudly. The temple people looked very panicked, and I wonder what happened?
Qi Lu was also a little surprised and said, "What happened? Don't panic, just tell me slowly."
The temple man sorted out his breath and quickly reported, saying, "Son of the Emperor, the big thing is not good! The Shanrong people took advantage of the Qi Duke's hunting in Peiqiu and launched a large-scale attack. They had besieged Peiqiu and wanted to capture the king of Qi alive! No one in Qi was sitting in a row, and they were in chaos. They were already in chaos. They asked the emperor to send troops to rescue him!"
Shanrong people?
The emperor narrowed his eyes. Although the barbecue of Beileye was very fragrant, he had no appetite to eat at this time. Recently, the Shanrong people invaded twice a few days ago, all of them were suppressed by Ji Lin. The Shanrong king died suddenly, and the general and the prince were killed. Unexpectedly, the Shanrong people were so tenacious and still resisted stubbornly.
Shanrong was originally a powerful country, but he suffered continuous injuries in Ji Lin. He had become the last of his strength, but he was still ready to fight to the death and dispatched all his troops to attack Qi, intending to kill him and live.
Ji Lin said with a cold face: "Tao Fu, I have been rumored to call me to convene a court meeting immediately in the governance of the court."
"Yes," Qi Lu said without any ambiguity, "Lu will go to the summon order now."
The Shanrong people invaded Qi State on a large scale. The king of Qi State was hunting in Peiqiu, and was completely unprepared. He was surrounded by the Shanrong people. The king was trapped, and Linzi, the capital of Qi State, was in chaos. The prince Zhuer sat on a temporary banana, but it was obvious that the prince Zhuer had no ability and could only send troops everywhere to seek help.
Gongsun Wuzhi was driven out of Luo Shi. He wanted to return to Linzi, Qi State, to question the prince Zhuer, and then complained to the prince Zhuer in front of the uncle of Qi State. However, he had not yet walked far away, he saw the Qi State's quick envoy asking for help.
When Gongsun Wuzhi learned that the Duke of Qi was trapped in Peiqiu, he immediately turned his horse's head and rushed back to Luo Shi overnight, asking for support from the emperor.
The Shanrong people invaded Qi on a large scale, which shocked the court and the people. All the nobles and officials entered the palace one after another, walked through the palace gate, headed towards the Zhichao, and quickly entered their respective classes and sat down.
Qi Lu also sat down in the class. Before the emperor came, the officials and officials whispered to each other. Many people had heard of such a big deal.
"I heard that Duke Qi was besieged by Shanrong people!"
"Yes, in Peiqiu!"
"Now is the time of winter hunting. Qi State has always had the custom of hunting in Peiqiu. I didn't expect the Shanrong people to be so bold!"
"These Shanrong dog thieves seem to be anxious!"
"If you want me to say that Qi State is strong, the Shanrong people will not succeed."
"Hey, haven't you heard of it? The prince of Qi, Zhuer, was in charge of Linzi, was already panicked. He not only asked the emperor for help, but also sent people to Zheng, Wei and Lu for help!"
"It seems that the Shanrong people are coming in full force this time, otherwise why would Qi State be so eager for help?"
All the ministers were whispering, and the emperor was wearing a black robe and had already walked out slowly. Everyone immediately bowed and bowed: "Greetings to the emperor, I, Wang Wannian--"
Ji Lin put on his wide black sleeves and sat down on the seat, saying, "There is no need to say anything extra. Today, the court meeting will be held temporarily. I believe all the officials have heard of it. Duke Qi was surrounded by Shanrong people and trapped in Peiqiu, asking Luo Shi to send troops to support him. I want to hear the opinions of all officials."
"My king!" A noble servant immediately stood up and said, "My king, the people of Shanrong eat meat and drink blood, and they are angry and poisonous to the heavens! Qi State is my king's country, and the bandits dare to offend the emperor's power. I, Master Luo, cannot bear this tone, so as not to be looked down upon!"
"Hey, my uncle is such a bad word." Some people agreed to support Qi, but some people did not agree to support Qi. Immediately, a noble official stood up and said, "The Shanrong people have been defeated by my king. Now they are at the end of their strength. Why are they afraid of it? Besides, Qi is a powerful country. How can they not even resist a few bandits? Qi is unwilling to send troops, because they are afraid of spending money and military rations, so they ask my king to send troops. My king can ignore it."
"Yes, yes, Qi State is strong and just taking this opportunity to weaken Qi State's national strength."
"Wrong, wrong! A big mistake! If the emperor does not reinforce Qi, if this is spread, it may lose the prestige of the emperor. How can the vassal states believe in the emperor in the future?"
The ministers, you said and said something, and they were in a mess in an instant.
Qi Lu narrowed his eyes and thought for a while in his mind. In history, the Shanrong people did invade Qi, not only that, but also Zheng, Wei, etc.
Qi Lu could see that although there were some ministers and officials in the court who supported Qi, whether they supported or did not support them, they looked down on Shanrong. They only felt that Shanrong was at the end of their strength and was not afraid of it, and they just fought casually. But what they didn't know was that in history, it was because of the destruction of the country by Shanrong that the king of Wei was captured and "teared the votes", and Wei Kingdom fell. In the end, with the help of the leader of Qi Huangong in the Spring and Autumn Period, Wei Kingdom was restored again.
Therefore, the resurrection of Shanrong people is terrible and must not be taken lightly. There is a saying that is good, cutting grass means eradication...
Qi Lu squinted his eyes and listened to the noisy sound beside his ears, and suddenly heard the emperor say, "What do you think of Taifu Qi?"
Qi Lu stood up from his squad and bowed and said, "Lu thought that the battle between reinforcements in Qi State was not a choice between fighting or not, but a choice between how to fight."
"Oh? In this way, the Grand Tutor thinks it is the main war faction?" The nobles and officials interrupted one after another.
"Yes, Taifu Qi advocates fighting, but because Taifu Qi is the blood of the Qi people?"
"I have also heard that Taifu Qi seems to be the brother of Duke Qi. Taifu Qi is so eager to support the main war, I am afraid that it is not just selfish?"
Someone said this and immediately led to the conversation, and a bunch of people began to whisper.
The emperor's face looked very ugly. He just wanted to hear Qi Lu's opinion, but he didn't expect so many people to provoke disagreements, be sarcastic, and hold guns and sticks.
In fact, some people are like this. At that time, Qi Lu had no status and was a slave. With his ability as a minor official, he became a tutor. Many people criticized Qi Lu for being too low-class, humble and humble. Now Qi Lu suddenly became the prince of Qi, a descendant of Jiang Taigong, and his status became noble. Some people's excuses also changed, thinking that Qi Lu was a native of Jiang Yi, Qi. The Qi Lu culture was still surprised by the Central Plains culture, and also thinking that Qi Lu's heart must be different.
In short, Qi Lu doesn't care much about the mouth growing on others.
Seeing that the emperor's face was quite ugly and he was always angry, Qi Lu smiled and said slowly and without any rush before the emperor got angry: "You guys listen to Lu's words. It is true that as the officials said, the Shanrong people are at the end of their power. This sneak attack on Qi is tantamount to the death, and it is not scary. But have you considered why the Shanrong people wanted to attack the powerful Qi instead of choosing other countries? The Jin State around Shanrong, Yicheng has always been incompatible with Quwo, why did the Shanrong people not provoke the Jin State? The Fan Kingdom south of Shanrong has a narrow land and few people, and the military strength is not strong. They have been bullied by Shanrong for many years. Why didn't Shanrong continue to bully Fan Kingdom? The Shanrong people chose Qi State only, and took advantage of the Qi Duke's encirclement and hunting Peiqiu, and why did the Shanrong people suddenly attack the surprise attack? "
Everyone fell into silence immediately, and the entire Zhichao Hall was shrouded in dark clouds. Qi Lu's question seemed to have opened up some thinking for all the nobles and officials.
Qi Lu finally gave the answer and said lightly: "The people of Shanrong are not stupid. They not only want to fight to the death, but also want to put them to death and live. The answer is very simple... because Qi State has money."
Qi State has money, Qi State has large areas of salt fields. In today's world, salt means money!
The Shanrong people have reached a desperate situation. What do they need most if they want to counterattack?
——Financial currency!
Qi Lu looked around the main hall, his eyes swept across each of the nobles and officials, smiled and said, "If the Shanrong thieves plundered the salt fields of Qi, they would have the opportunity to recuperate and wait for Shanrong to gather momentum to return. Li secretly thought that the first person who was retaliated by Shanrong was not Qi, nor was it a country of ordinary and Zheng, but Luo Shi, who had beaten Shanrong to run away in his arms in the past, right? Li was only prepared for danger in times of peace, so he asked the emperor and the nobles and officials... to think twice."
Zhichao fell into silence. Qi Lu said a few words, but everyone was speechless.
At this moment, the footsteps of "Tao!" came quickly, and they were wearing a black back in military uniform!
