Chapter 497: Each with His Own Agenda

On the day that Su Qin, the envoy of Feng State, arrived at the capital of Qi State.

He then spent a lot of money to get to know some nobles, with the aim of meeting the King of Qi, Ji Fa, as soon as possible.

But what about the Qin envoy?

But he didn't seem to be in a hurry, but rather looked very leisurely.

Since they are not in a hurry, why bother making this trip?

This puzzled Ji Fa, "If Qin doesn't care about the alliance between our two countries..."

"Then why did they send an envoy after the Fengtian Army did?"

"Or is it that the Qin State is just going through the motions and doesn't care about the outcome?"

What he meant was that the Qin State sent envoys only to claim justice and convince the people of the world.

After all, it was Qi that first wanted to tear up the contract, and Qin also sent envoys to try its best to prevent this from happening.

But in the end, it is difficult to change the outcome.

In this way, whether it is war or peace in the future, the Qin Dynasty will have enough room to advance or retreat.

The reason why Ji Fa was able to think of this was because the attitude of the Qin envoy was too unpredictable.

Even Jiang Ziya frowned and said, "Your Majesty, perhaps this is Qin's strategy of deceiving the enemy."

"They are pretending not to be anxious, just to wait for us to get anxious first. How about this: as long as the Qin envoys don't come to the palace to see you, you won't issue an announcement."

"Let's see what they are up to."

Ji Fa nodded in agreement and said, "What the Prime Minister said makes sense. Let's do it first."

Su Qin was returning to the post station to rest.

I also heard about Zhang Yi and other Qin envoys.

He smiled at the envoys from Feng State who followed him and said:

"My junior fellow apprentice is indeed a man of great talent, but he is too arrogant."

"The King of Qi didn't want to see him, so he simply adopted this attitude, which really facilitated the peace talks between Feng and Qi."

"But, I can't say for sure whether there is a conspiracy behind this..."

Having said this, he pretended to hesitate.

After a pause, he continued, "How about this? You spread the news first and say that the King of Qi is already intending to break the alliance with Qin and also to form an alliance with Dafeng."

"As one side gains strength while the other loses strength, he will definitely lose his composure. Then I will be able to guess what he wants to do."

Hearing this.

The envoy, also known as Fengguo, was confused and asked, "What if he hasn't lost his composure?"

Su Qin said seriously, "He is not causing trouble, but there are always people who want to cause trouble. After all, not all of Qin's envoys are Zhang Yi."

After he made the arrangements.

About two days passed.

Zhang Yi, who was still in the brothel and indulged in wine and women, only then realized Su Qin's deliberate trap.

An envoy from the Qin State murmured in front of him:

"Prime Minister Cao, why did you let him be the mastermind?"

"Yes, after returning, I will inevitably be punished by His Majesty and the Prime Minister!"

"I haven't left this brothel for two days. If I stay any longer, I'm afraid the master will be crippled."

“…”

Zhang Yi could roughly hear those sounds.

However, he ignored it.

Instead, he said to the three guards who tipped off the news:

"You've worked hard. With this little bit of gold, I'll treat you and the brothers in the garrison to a nice drink."

"As for Su Qin, if there is any movement, notify me immediately."

The Jinyiwei lurking in the capital of Qi State immediately took the silver and retreated.

Afterwards, someone saw him still hugging women and drinking wine, and he was furious and said angrily:

"Master, the two countries of Qi and Feng are about to form an alliance. Why are you still sitting there?"

"If you want to die, don't drag us down with you!"

"If you don't want to see the Emperor of Qi, we will go and see him, and you can stay here. What do you think?"

Hearing this.

Zhang Yi was unusually angry.

Everyone saw him knock over the wine glass on the table in front of him, and he flew into a rage. He first drove the prostitutes out, and then slowly said:

"You still know that I am the mastermind?"

"Since I am the master, you must do whatever I tell you to do."

"If anything goes wrong, I will take the blame myself. It has nothing to do with you. Do you understand?"

"If any of you dare to ruin my great plan, I will bring you before His Majesty to ask for forgiveness!"

As soon as these words were spoken.

The Qin army envoys who were originally chattering no longer had any other thoughts.

I dare not give birth again.

Instead, he continued to follow Zhang Yi, obsessed with wealth, wine and women.

In a daze, three whole days passed.

During this period, Zhang Yi and others did not mention state affairs at all, but only drank and had fun.

When Qi Lord Ji Fa learned about this, he could no longer sit still. He frowned and said to the ministers around him:

"What on earth is this crazy student named Zhang Yi doing?"

"Even if I don't summon him, according to the rules, he should come to the palace and pay his respects to me."

"What's going on now?"

"Could it be that he, or the Qin State behind him, has never taken me seriously?"

"So, he's not in a hurry to come see me?!"

The more Jifa thought about it, the angrier he became.

I wish I could break the alliance with Qin right now.

Instead, he formed an alliance with his arch-enemy Feng State.

But reason told him that state affairs should not be influenced by his emotions.

I can only feel depressed.

At this time, Jiang Ziya came up with an idea.

"Qin envoy Zhang Yi, quite interesting..."

"Your Majesty, since he is so obsessed with vocal music, just ignore him for now."
