Chapter 448 Symphony of a King in the World

"The King of Qin said that as long as you can surrender, the King of Qin will take out five hundred miles of land to reward you."

Some ministers made such suggestions.

The King of Qi summoned the ministers in the country, and originally wanted to discuss how to deal with the Qin soldiers outside the city. He himself did not expect that the first reply given by the ministers after they gathered was like this. Hou Sheng sat among the ministers, narrowing his eyes and saying nothing. Most of the ministers in the temple were Hou Sheng's confidants, and the rest, even if they were not confidants, were all cowards and did not dare to say anything more in front of the King of Qi.

Those who dare to speak and those who disagree with Hou Sheng are either killed by Hou Sheng or expelled by the King of Qi.

Therefore, Hou Sheng was not worried about these things at all.

He didn't even have to speak by himself to persuade the King of Qi to surrender. Among the ministers, there were many people who could speak for him. At this moment, the ministers in the temple suddenly began to persuade the King of Qi to surrender. There were only four or five people, lowering their heads and silent. The Qin army surrounded the capital, which made the King of Qi very scared. According to the news outside the city, the Qi army was defeated on the front line and the entire army was destroyed... The contact between the capital and the front line was cut off, and the Qin people used all kinds of fake news to scare the Qi people in the city.

The King of Qi looked pale. He looked at his ministers. The King of Qi was originally a king with a soft ear and no opinion. If he compared it with a later king who could not help him, he could care about his ministers and be kind to his people. He was gentle and generous, but he had no opinion and was easily influenced. Unfortunately, the King of Qi was surrounded by Hou Sheng, not Prime Minister Zhuge.

If a king like this has good ministers to assist him in peace, he may be able to become a good king. He will not make too many mistakes or make too many mistakes. However, in such a chaotic world, when there are more villains around him than talented people, he will seem a little foolish and easily deceived. Zhao Kuo once summarized the types of kings in the world.

He believed that there were kings like the cruel king of Yan, kings like the King of Wei who were eager to achieve success, kings like King of Zhao who knew people but could not make good use of them, kings like King of Han... kings who were useless, kings like King of Qi who had no opinion, and reminded Ying Zheng to use them as a mirror and always examine whether he had acted the same way as them. If there were any, he would improve it.

For the king, the most important thing is not his personal character and style, but whether he can put the right person in the right position. Duke Huan of Qi once said: "I have some problems. I am very lustful, like drinking and hunting. Does Ersanzi think this affect me to dominate?" Guan Zhong's answer was not affected. Guan Zhong told him that as long as you know how to use people, it is good that lust is human nature. It is understandable that as long as you are willing to use me and listen to my words, I will definitely let you dominate.

The King of Qi today has nothing to do with it. He doesn't like women, drink, and hunt, but he doesn't know how to use people either.

When the ministers persuaded him to open the city to surrender, the King of Qi was a little shaken. What the ministers said was becoming more and more terrifying, just like the Qin people were going to enter the city to massacre tomorrow. The King of Qi was trembling all over. He could muster up his courage before, on the one hand because of the foundation of his ancestors, and on the other hand, the threat from the Qin people made him very angry. But now, the tomb of the Queen is outside the city and has fallen into the hands of the Qin people.

The King of Qi searched among the ministers and finally looked at Housheng, whom he trusted the most. He hoped Housheng could give a suggestion.

Hou Sheng looked at the King of Qi's gaze. He frowned, pondered for a long time, and said helplessly: "Perhaps, I can only surrender..."

"Shangjun...", someone spoke. King Qi turned his head and found that the person who spoke was Si Kou. Si Kou called Tian Chun, an office. He was old. Si Kou's position was very important. He had to supervise the ministers, arrest villains, and try cases. Hou Sheng cared about this position very much, so he arranged for his confidant to serve as a long time. Later, in order to avoid the King of Qi thinking too much, Hou Sheng found a well-known honest man to take the position of Si Kou.

Tian Chun is such an honest person. He is honest by nature, not good at speaking, and is timid and afraid of things. He also earned a lot of money with Housheng. Housheng has his handle, so he naturally doesn't worry about him. In Qi State, Si Kou's position became a false point, because everyone was committing crimes, and Si Kou could only follow them to commit crimes and violate the law.

Tian Chun was trembling all over. He looked at the King of Qi in front of him and felt extremely excited.

"Shangjun, you can't surrender... Qi still has hundreds of thousands of troops stationed in various fronts. How could Qin defeat so many people within a month? Someone must have interfered with it. Tell the Qin people about Qi's defense... Shangjun, I heard that there were children in the city singing: Those who destroyed and built will win!" Si Kou finally looked at Housheng. He gritted his teeth and said angrily: "This must be Housheng who received a bribe and betrayed you!"

"Sheng, I am Siko of Qi. I want to examine your crimes! Delete your seal!"

Tian Chun knew Hou Sheng in front of him and suddenly spoke.

At that moment, the temple was extremely quiet. Hou Sheng widened his eyes and looked aggrieved. The ministers looked at this scene in fear and could not speak. The King of Qi was also a little surprised. He looked at Tian Chun and looked at Hou Sheng again. He said helplessly: "Now is the most dangerous time. As a minister, he doesn't think about how to save the country, but he still has to fight with each other. What is this?"

"Shangjun..."

Tian Chun looked at the King of Qi in front of him, and he said, "You can't surrender... You can't surrender...", muttering, the King of Qi was about to speak, Tian Chun rushed towards the side. Before Hou Sheng could frame something, he hit the pillar with all his strength. At that moment, everyone heard a crack, and the red and white suddenly exploded. The ministers were frightened and pale and exclaimed.

The King of Qi just felt dark before his eyes, and then he lowered his head and vomited. He almost vomited out all the food he had eaten in the morning. Soon, soldiers came in and helped deal with the situation here. When the warriors cleaned the place, the King of Qi could no longer discuss what matters and was staggering and supported to leave the place. Hou Sheng was a little surprised, and his plan was broken again.

He looked at the blood marks on the ground and was silent for a long time. A minister was around him and said viciously: "The person is dead, but there is still a wife who can bear the punishment on his behalf."

Hou Sheng glanced at the minister deeply and said, "No need, he has paid the "money".

Qin State has been urging Housheng to persuade the King of Qi to surrender earlier. In fact, Housheng is not in a hurry at all, because the army guarding the city is his own, and he can completely order them to open the city gate. However, he still wants to fulfill his promise and let the King of Qi surrender voluntarily. The King of Qi surrender is to surrender on behalf of the entire Qi State. This is still very different from opening the city gate.

The Qi people are different from others. In other countries, when the kings are killed and the kings are defeated, the people surrender. However, when the kings of Qi die, the Qi people will not surrender. They will continue to persevere. When a savior comes to save them, they will support a new king, and when the country is saved, they will sell the savior.

Hou Sheng was unwilling to miss such an opportunity, so he came to the palace again to persuade the King of Qi to surrender.

The King of Qi was shocked just now. Tian Chun originally wanted to use his death to awaken the King of Qi, but he probably didn't expect that his death not only did not make the King of Qi stronger, but instead broke the last line of defense in the King of Qi's heart. The King of Qi was very scared. In such fear, he directly agreed to Hou Sheng's request. This was a bit ironic. The King of Qi agreed to open the city to surrender.

On this day, the King of Qi got into the carriage, came out of the palace, and headed towards the city gate. As soon as the carriage came out, several young Qi officials jumped out of the distance. They could not see the King of Qi on weekdays. They pointed at the King of Qi and scolded loudly: "Do you want to betray Qi? Do you want to betray your surname?" Faced with the questioning of the young officials, the King of Qi just lowered his head and did not reply. Then, the King of Qi's warriors killed them.

The young official fell in a pool of blood and died with his eyes open.

The road ahead became a bit long. From time to time, people came out to block the frame of the King of Qi, some came out to scold the King of Qi and Housheng, and some took out the late king and later persuaded the King of Qi, but they were all dead. The road from the palace to the city gate was full of corpses and blood, and all kinds of corpses, including young people, old people, and even women. They were all dead, and they were lying on this land.

They are different, they are all the same.

The city gate was slowly opened. King Qi turned around and saw the blood marks along the way. He saw the corpses looking at him, as if cursing something. King Qi was suddenly very scared. He wanted to stop, but he didn't want to continue to open the city gate. However, it was too late now. The warriors of Qin held up their crossbows and pointed at the Qi people in front of them. They were so proud and so arrogant.

The youngest generals of Qin looked at King Qi coldly, with no respect for the king on their faces. King Qi wanted to show more force. He wanted to raise his head and ask where the five hundred miles of land rewarded by King Qin was. However, looking at the darkness, flashing cold light, and aiming at his crossbow arrows, King Qi couldn't help but shrink his neck and dared not speak. The soldiers of Qin rushed into the city, and the King of Qi was isolated at the gate of the city and no one took care of him.

Meng Tian looked at the king disdainfully. Meng Tian was from Qi three times before, but he had no sense of identity with Qi, because he was born in Qin and spoke Qin language and was used to the customs and culture of Qin. Just like Zhao Kang, he was already a complete Qin person. But even as a Qin person, Meng Tian still had some feelings in his heart when facing Qi with a sense of familiarity.

He could think of his eldest father when he listened to the people here. When he was very young, his eldest father talked to his warriors like this, and he would also say, but as he got older, he had forgotten it. When he was a child, his eldest father praised the Qi people for how brave and tenacious they were, but today, Meng Tian was so disappointed. The demise of Qi was really unhappy compared to other countries.

The weak Han Dynasty perished, the King of Han committed suicide, the King of Wei committed suicide, the King of Wei committed suicide, the Zhao committed suicide, the Prince established another country, the Yan State was destroyed, the king and his ministers fled to the bitter and cold land, the Chu State was destroyed, and Xiang Yan and other generals fought to the end, and what about Qi State?? The King of Qi stood in the car like a pig, looking at everything in front of him in fear, and the same was true for the ministers, and none of them dared to glare at him.

However, when Meng Tian walked into the city, the situation was a little different, because he saw the bloody road, and there were many corpses lying along the way. Judging from their appearance and posture, they were all dead on the road blocking the King of Qi. Among these people were officials, civilians, men, women, young people, and old people. The King of Qi fought out a bloody road, and this bloody road was probably to prove the last bloody nature of Qi.

As the King of Qi surrendered, Qi State was destroyed.

The 400,000 troops of Qi immediately surrendered to the Qin army. The 400,000 prisoners surrendered without fighting, which really made people feel complicated.

The troops from all over Qi surrendered one after another, and no city chose to resist. Qin State captured all the cities of Qi State without bloodshed. The price paid was that a few soldiers fell and fell behind on the way. The demise of Qi State announced the end of the Warring States Period, and the six countries were finally destroyed. Qin State captured the last king, and Qin State completed a kingdom. The soldiers of Qin State who first learned the news cheered and excited.

Wang Ben, Meng Tian and other generals were extremely happy. They began to celebrate this day, and the King of Qi was sent to Qin.

The news of the unification of the world quickly spread across the country. This is a new era. This is an era that the Qin people have been looking forward to for hundreds of years. Many Qin officials shed tears for it. All the places were celebrating. The scouts rushed towards Xianyang quickly, and looking at the ecstasy on their faces, the officials from all over the country already understood it.

The world is unified, and this unification seems a bit like a tiger-headed and a slashed end. The music begins with the Qin people. A Weiren, who is not valued, comes to Qin. He looks at the weak Qin Kingdom in front of him and starts playing this long song. Then there are the songs of various heroes one after another, including Zhang Lu, the humble and gentle man, the white-haired veteran, and the general who would rather die than surrender...

The beginning of this song is so loud, with many heroes coming out, but by the end of his music, it was not so good. There were only three young men, a king who lowered his head and waited for death.

But no matter what, the music has been played, and everyone stood up and applauded to celebrate.
