"Is Chu State destroyed?"

The Prime Minister's Mansion of Qi State in Linzi City was watching the singing and dancing. When he received the news from Chu, he was stunned.

The quiet singing and graceful dancing suddenly became boring.

Hou Sheng was born in Ju, and in his early years he was a disciple of Taishi Gui's family. Le Yi attacked Qi and conquered Qi State. King Min of Qi died. Tian Fazhang fled to Taishi Gui's place to hide. He had a private relationship with Taishi Gui's daughter and gave birth to King Tian Jian of Qi.

Tian Jian was five years old. When he was enlightened, Tai Shiyu won the selection and served as Tian Jian's teacher.

Tian Click defeated the Yan army and restored Qi State. Tian Fazhang returned to Linzi, and Tian Jian became the crown prince. After Tian Fazhang died, Tian Jian was young and regent, Hou Sheng, who was a visitor to the Taishi Gui family, naturally ascended the position of prime minister.

Hou Sheng longed to hold great power, but he understood his ability, not one percent as good as Tian Dan. The Queen supported him with all his strength because he was easy to control.

After Tian Jian became prime minister, he followed the wishes of the king and queen and never struggled. Over the past few decades, the country of Qi has become peaceful and live a colorful life without hearing the sound of golden swords.

The envoy sent by Qin to Linzi gave Housheng a lot of gifts privately. Housheng asked himself that he was not a saint, but he would collect what he should collect, but he accumulated a lot of wealth.

"If you can have the wealth and honor of today, you will have the State of Zhao. If Zhao does not exist, how can you enjoy wealth and honor?"

Zhao She killed the minor official who was in Pingyuanjun's fief and resisted taxes. When he defended himself in front of Pingyuanjun, his words were like a drum and a bell ringing in Housheng's ears.

Qin State showed goodwill to Housheng because Housheng served as prime minister, and Qi was behind it. If Qi was destroyed, what is the value of his Housheng?

When news of the demise of Chu State came, Hou Sheng, who had no ability, knew that as the only independent Qi State, would become the target of Qin State's attack.

"Come here, prepare a car. I want to go to the palace to pay homage to the king!"

In the palace of King Qi, copper lamps were displayed, and the lights were bright and the palace was bright.

Qi State was peaceful for decades, and did not fight with other countries and rested with peace of mind. The trauma of the five countries' attack on Qi had long been restored. The queen ruled as a woman and was peaceful in character. As well as Qi's foreign policy, it was also peaceful.

After recuperation for a long time, the people of Qi seemed to have forgotten that the current world belongs to the great struggle of the Warring States Period.

In the swaying copper lights and shadows, King Jian of Qi stood quietly in front of a silk painting. The silk painting was nine feet long and six feet wide, and hung on an exquisite wooden frame. The silk painting was painted with a woman in a palace dress, holding a tall bun and holding a jade gui, which was elegant and luxurious.

The woman in the painting is as big as a person, with delicate faces and lifelike life.

"Mother Queen..." King Jian of Qi murmured softly.

When he succeeded to the throne when he was young, King Jian of Qi always remembered that the Queen of Qi had always supported the sky for him, while he studied carefreely and played with palace maids.

Deep down, King Jian of Qi was deeply attached to the Queen of the rulers. He had no royal power in his hands, but King Jian of Qi did not have conflicts with the Queen of the Kings and had been in peace.

"King, the Prime Minister asks for a meeting." The eunuch's report planned to remember King Jian of Qi.

"It's so late, what's going to happen to the Prime Minister?"

King Jian of Qi was stunned. Over the years, Hou Sheng had never disturbed him later in the Han Shi.

"The prime minister's face looked anxious, as if something big happened." said the eunuch.

"Then let me go and have a look." King Jian of Qi took his eyes away from the portrait and turned around.

Housheng has always been pleased by King Jian of Qi. He knew that he did not like the government affairs, so Housheng never bothered him with the affairs of the court.

After the Tian family replaced Qi, in order to prevent the court officials from becoming bigger, the Tian family was granted the Tian clan. The five capitals and seventy-two cities of Qi State were in charge. Hou Sheng served as prime minister for many years and could control the power of Linzi, but there was no way for the Tian clan scattered everywhere.

Only when there were checks and balances among the Tian clan, King Jian of Qi was relieved to entrust the country's politics to Housheng.

"King, Qi is in danger!"

As soon as they met, Hou Sheng started to cry and couldn't get up.

"What's wrong with the Prime Minister? Get up and talk?" King Jian of Qi didn't know what happened.

"There is news from the south that the Qin army has captured and destroyed the Chu State and is preparing to return to attack the Qi State..." Hou Sheng cried.

"Attack Qi? Qi did not participate in the Union Column and did not help the five countries resist Qin. Why did Qin attack Qi?"

The State of Qi pursued a pacifist foreign policy, which was the national policy since King Xiang of Qi, and was continued when the king and queen were in power. After the death of the king, out of filial piety and did not want to make trouble, King Jian of Qi had no objection.

King Jian of Qi thought that as long as Qi did not provoke Qin, Qin would not come back to attack Qi.

"It seems that the King of Qin has the intention to retreat and destroy the world, but I am afraid that Qi will not be able to survive alone!"

Hou Sheng cried bitterly in front of King Jian of Qi, looking like a loyal minister.

As the prime minister of Qi, Hou Sheng knew very well the current situation of Qi. The army had no garrison and no general in command. The Qi army had been distracted for a long time, so how could it be the opponent of the Qin army?

Once Qi was destroyed, the unwilling Qi people would look for scapegoats. As the king of Qi, King Jian of Qi, was a monarch and was a venerable person, and Qi people would not do anything to treat King Jian of Qi, but he would win later.

Hou Sheng could have predicted that Qi Ren would definitely push the responsibility for the destruction of the country to him.

"What should I do?" King Jian of Qi kept murmuring, no idea.

In the years since he succeeded to the throne, King Jian of Qi has never encountered any crisis. It is said that when he was a child, he followed his father to defend Jucheng and was in danger of peace. However, not long after, Tian Dan from Jimo defeated the cavalry and welcomed King Xiang of Qi. Those suffering days did not leave a deep impression on King Jian of Qi.

"At present, we can only send troops to the border and prepare to fight the Qin army." Hou Sheng wiped his tears and his tone was firm.

The eunuch behind King Jian of Qi was very surprised when he heard this and looked at Hou Sheng strangely. Usually, when he mentioned sending troops, Hou Sheng said that he spent money and food without reason.

"The Prime Minister's words are reasonable, so I will send someone to invite the Grand Sima."

The Grand Sima of Qi was responsible for leading the army. Sima Rangju and Kuang Zhang once held this position and led the Qi army, leaving behind a great reputation.

Half an hour later, an old man sat on the carriage and came to the palace.

"Uncle, the Qin army has captured and destroyed the Chu State, and Qi State is in danger!"

Tian Bao, the Grand Sima of Qi, was a member of the Tian family. In terms of seniority, he was even one generation higher than King Jian of Qi.

"The Qin State's intention to annex the world is obvious. For the current plan, we can only actively send troops to resist Qin." Without waiting for Tian Bao to respond, Hou Sheng spoke directly.

Housheng dared not say he would resist Qin, just block Qin outside the gates of Qi.

"Old minister..." Tian Bao was stunned, stammering in his mouth, unable to speak for a long time.

Although Tian Bao served as the Grand Marshal, he had never fought a war and suddenly asked him to send troops to resist Qin, which was a bit difficult for him.

When he came to his senses, Tian Bao stared at Hou Sheng fiercely. Hou Sheng was a mediocre person, and he was a prime minister for many years. He did not practice garrison. When he came to the end, he shouted to Reveal Qin, but left a mess.

"Old minister receives the order."

After a while, Tian Bao finally accepted the order from King Jian of Qi. Qi, but Tian’s Qi State, as a member of the Tian clan, Tian Bao was unwilling to hand over the army to Hou Sheng’s hands.
