Three BMW and Jade Bi

In the hall, Ji Chan, Duke Xiang of Yu, sat in the middle and loved the treasures given by the envoy of Jin, and praised them.

Xun Xi, the envoy of Jin, held his hands in his sleeves and looked at the king of Yu, who was nearly fifty years old, with confidence in his eyes, believing that with the BMW and jade bi he sent, and his three-inch tongue, he would definitely convince Duke Xiang of Yu to reach the Yu-Jin alliance, and use the way to attack Guo.

The BMW brought by Xun Xi was led to the hall, and it was a good horse with snow-white body, graceful body, slender and strong limbs. The mane was as white as salt and snow, without a trace of color. At this moment, it was elegant like a gentleman shaking his beautiful ponytail, with a happy expression.

Xun Xi said loudly: "Donald Xiang, this BMW is a BMW that is selected from one thousand miles from the Dayuan horses. It is called "Pengxiao". It was offered to my lord by the Qiang people. It can travel thousands of miles a day, climb up the duckweed and cross the water, and fly over the gullies. Last year, Duke Huan of Qi used ten cities to exchange them, and Duke Zhao of Yan once used 100,000 gold coins to buy them, but my lord refused."

Duke Xiang of Yu, who was about to celebrate his fifty birthday, was overjoyed when he heard this: "Oh... Even Duke Huan of Qi and Duke Zhao of Yan wanted to get this BMW, but failed to get what he wanted?"

After King Wu of Zhou established the Zhou Dynasty, he was granted great titles to the ministers who had made great contributions. After years of development, the world was known as the "Eight Hundred Princes". Many of the ministers and royal families were granted land and established an independent country.

After years of development and annexation, the vassal states of the world have been greatly reduced, but there are still no less than a hundred. Qi is one of the strongest princes in the world, and its national strength is even above the powerful Jin State.

Since becoming the throne, Jiang Xiaobai, Duke Huan of Qi, worked hard to govern, recruited talents and appointed Guan Zhong as prime minister, Tian Shan as general, Sun Bin as military counselor, and Sima Rangju as lieutenant general, which made Qi's country's political affairs harmonious and national strength flourish. Currently, it has tens of millions of people, with 600,000 soldiers, and is known as the world's largest vassal state.

Although Yan State located in the north cannot match Qi State, it is also a powerful country in the world, with a population of nearly three million and 180,000 elite soldiers and generals. It is regarded by the world as one of the powerful countries second only to the five major princes.

"Oh... even Jiang Xiaobai didn't get the BMW fell into my hands. Hehe, it's enough for me to brag for the rest of my life!"

The fifty-year-old Duke Xiang of Yu held a jade bi in his hand and turned around the BMW, with a look of greed and complacent expression in his eyes. He seemed to wish that he could send someone to inform Duke Huan of Qi now that the BMW you want belongs to me now.

Although Yu State has a small territory and a small population, its national strength is weak, its ancestors have been rich!

Four hundred years ago, King Wu of Zhou overthrew Zhou Zhou and established the Zhou Dynasty, and then conferred great titles on meritorious officials and clans, and ended nearly a hundred countries. These vassal states obtained different titles according to their merits and blood ties, including the Duke State, Marquis State, Earl State, Viscount State, and Baron State.

At first, King Wu of Zhou only granted five dukes, namely Song, Wei, Lu, Guo and Yu. As for the now awesome Qi State is only a second-level marquis, and the founding monarch was the famous Taigong Jiang Wang.

As for other powerful countries nowadays, Qin, Yan, Jin are just Count countries, while Chu, Wu, Yue and others are just viscount countries. In terms of nobility and bloodline, they cannot be compared with the Yu country appointed by the emperor. Anyway, many people in Yu thought so in their hearts!

However, after ten years of Hedong and ten years of Hexi, after four hundred years of development, Qi, Qin, Chu, Jin and other countries rose strongly, and Zhao even broke up and emerged from the sky, and finally won the recognition of the Zhou royal family. On the contrary, the Dukes of Song, Wei, Lu, Guo, and Yu were getting worse and worse, and the sky was weaker and weaker.

Among these five dukes, Lu and Song were in a slightly better situation. In the world, they were at least middle-class and superior. The Wei and Guo were still working. They all had a population of at least one million and had nearly one hundred thousand armors. Only the Yu Kingdom became increasingly shabby and had a lighter position.

Xun Xi looked at Duke Xiang Yu's greedy appearance and said with a smile: "The jade bi in Duke Xiang's hand comes from a hanging thorn. It is crystal clear in color, and is as round as a jade plate. It has no flaws all over. It is called the "Heavenly Bi". Even King Xiang dreams of using it as a treasure to conquer the country."

"Oh... it's such a rare treasure!" Duke Xiang of Yu left the BMW and returned to the desk and knelt again, looking at the Yubi in his hand and saliva flowed.

Although the prestige of the Zhou royal family is declining now, it is the recognized emperor of the princes. No matter how bad King Xiang of Zhou is, he is the orthodox royal family and the only king in the world. Even if he is as strong as Qi Qin, the king can only be called a king at present, and no one in the world dares to be called a king!

"Hehe... I got this treasure, it would be great if one day I could change my Duke Xiang of Yu to King of Yu Xiang." Duke Xiang of Yu Ji Chan couldn't help but think a lot while holding the 'Tianzun Bi'.

Xun Xi changed his tone and said loudly: "Although King Xiang is the lord of the nine fives, my lord will not sell him face. He gave him the priceless treasure for no reason, but ordered him to bring it to his ministers to celebrate his birthday. I wonder if these two gifts will be favored by Duke Xiang?"

"I like it, I like it!"

Duke Xiang of Yu hurriedly put down the jade bi and bowed to thank him, "Duke Xian's great gift is really unrepaid. I feel ashamed when I think of the conflicts in the past!"

Xun Xi smiled and said, "How about the birthday gift of Duke Xuan of Guo?"

Ji Chan's face suddenly became gloomy when he heard this, and he said with a look of a smile: "When I mention Shubi, I won't be angry! Last year, his father died and he ascended the throne. I fully support him and sent someone to send 50,000 stones of grain, 10,000 gold coins, 500 oxen and 3,000 fat sheep. The gift is great. Unexpectedly, this kid sat firmly and even broke the bridge across the river and was ungrateful!"

"Oh... I wonder what kind of gifts Duke Xuan of Guo sent to Duke Xiang?"

Xun Xi had already figured out through the scouts and knew that there was a conflict between Yu and Guo. Then he came to apart, trying to destroy Guo by just a path, killing two birds with one stone, but at this moment he knew the reason.

Before Ji Chan could speak, Ji Dai, the youngest son who was most beloved by him, rushed to say, "Doctor Xun, don't mention it. Shubi's bastard only sent someone to deliver 1,000 stones of food, 50 pieces of silk, and fifty horses, which clearly meant to deliberately humiliate his father."

Xun Xi looked resentful when he heard this: "This Shubi is really ungrateful. Last year, Shubi's father Guo Xun passed away. If Duke Xiang had not supported him, how could the monarch of Guo fall on him? It seems like he is a shameless person who breaks the bridge and destroys the bridge, and everyone will be punished!"

Ji Chan sighed, "I'm not hiding it from Doctor Xun, I was so angry that I almost vomited blood by Shubi's bastard! I also wanted to seek justice, but our country of Yu... Alas, it's better not to mention it!"

"Duke Xiang!"

Xun Xi bowed to the ground, "My lord has always respected you very much. The conflicts in the past were caused by Guo Xun. Now Guo Xun is dead. My lord is willing to form an alliance with Duke Xiang and jointly attack Guo State!"

He paused and added: "Of course, if Duke Xiang is unwilling to rebel with his former allies, he just needs to open Jiangguan and let our Jin army pass through. Our General Xian Zhen will definitely seek justice for Duke Xiang!"

"At that time, I will definitely teach me a lesson. This boy Shubi will make him look for his teeth!" Ji Chan slapped the table, wishing he could beat Shubi, the new monarch of Guo State with his own hands.

"Sure, certain!" Xun Xi laughed repeatedly, "If this happens, even if our Jin and Yu alliance are settled, we will return to Quwo immediately to report to the lord."

"Let's wait!"

Before Yu Xianggong Ji Chan could speak, a sound of a full voice suddenly sounded outside the hall. Baili Xi, the prime minister of Yu, with white hair, strided across the threshold and walked into the hall.

"Aiqing Baili, are you back?"

Seeing Baili Xi stalking into the hall with her head raised, Ji Chan's face showed a contradictory expression and he bowed slightly and said hello.

Bailixi stopped in the middle of the hall, bowed and said, "My name Bailixi paid homage to the lord, and received a letter from his lord saying that an envoy from the State of Jin was visiting, so the old minister quickly returned to the royal city."

"In Xun Xi, a doctor from the Jin State, this is a courtesy!"

Xun Xi had heard of Baili Xi for a long time and knew that this person not only had outstanding ability to govern the country, but also had excellent knowledge and was a difficult character. So he waited until Baili Xi left Pinglu and came to visit Duke Xiang of Yu, trying to cook the raw rice while Baili Xi was not at home. Unexpectedly, Baili Xi rushed back at a critical moment and could only grit his teeth and salute him and act according to the opportunity.

Baili Xi stood up and glanced at Xun Xi, and snorted coldly: "I'm afraid that it's true that you Jin State uses the way to attack Guo, and destroying our Yu State by the way is also a planned thing?"

Xun Xi's lips curled slightly and said with a smile: "Why did the Xiangbang say this? My lord has always admired Duke Xiang, but because of Guo Xun's disagreement, he has been in constant conflict over the years. Now Guo Xun is dead. My lord specially ordered me to come and pay tribute to Duke Xiang and become an ally. How can I think of destroying Yu?"

After a pause, he suddenly raised his voice and said loudly: "I am a Grand Jin army with 400,000 armor. If I have the intention to destroy Yu, I only need to send one general and command 100,000 troops. In less than a month, it will be enough to destroy Yu! Why do I have to spend so much effort to get a BMW and a jade bi? The Baili Xiangbang should not judge a gentleman with the heart of a villain, which will delay national affairs. Or the Xiangbang has a private agreement with the ruler and ministers of Guo State to maintain such efforts to safeguard a country that humiliates the lord. Is this the way to be a minister?"
