    Qu Ping entered the palace and saw King Xiong Huai of Chu in the main hall. He bowed and said: "Your Majesty, the negotiation between me and Yuan Cang, the envoy of the State of Qi, has ended. The other party's conditions are extremely harsh. After some bargaining, I finally reached the final agreement."  Please read the conditions, Your Majesty."

    As he spoke, he handed over the book.

    There are five conditions involved. The first condition is that after the negotiation, a document must be drawn up and signed.  Although Yuan Cang only has four conditions, in fact this can be regarded as one condition.  Qu Ping was included as the first condition, followed by food, weapons, money, and craftsmen involved in shipbuilding.

    The more Xiong Huai looked down, the more frightened and angry he became.

    "It's too much to bully others!"

    "The State of Qi is bullying others too much!"

    "Prime Minister, as long as such conditions are spread, where will my face go? The Chu State is a huge country with hundreds of years of foundation. Is it possible to let Wang Qi humiliate it like this?"

    Xiong Huai¡¯s eyes widened and he huffed. He kept talking and threw the book directly on the ground.  He gritted his teeth and said angrily: "If you don't agree, I will never agree to this condition. How can I, the Chu State, be so cowardly?"

    The various conditions are simply a slap in the face to Xiong Huai.  The emperors of Chu State in all dynasties have never been so humiliated.

    It¡¯s so irritating.

    Qu Ping silently picked up the folder on the ground and said solemnly: "I am all incompetent. Please forgive me."

    Xiong Huai sighed and said with relief: "Prime Minister, why does this have anything to do with you? It's not your fault. The reason why I'm angry is because Wang Qi's conditions are just taking advantage of someone else's situation. This condition is blackmail."

    Qu Ping said: "The ancestor is in the hands of Wang Qi. No matter how much he blackmails us, there is nothing we can do. Therefore, we cannot refuse Wang Qi's conditions. Unless we directly choose to go to war regardless of the life or death of the ancestor."

    Xiong Huai said: "The life and death of our ancestors are of great importance. As long as our ancestors are here, nothing will be a problem for our Chu country. If our ancestors are gone, the Chu country will lose its mainstay. Our ancestors must be replaced."

    Qu Ping fell silent immediately.

    Didn¡¯t answer the question.

    Xiong Huai understood immediately that it would be difficult to coordinate in exchange for Xiong Yuanxiang without giving him money or food or agreeing to the conditions, so Qu Ping didn't answer.

    Xiong Huai said: "Prime Minister, there is still room for change in the conditions given by the other party. These conditions are really harsh."

    Qu Ping sighed and said: "Your Majesty, it is the minister who is incompetent and Yuan Cang who is unscrupulous. Because they have figured out our thoughts and know that we must exchange for our ancestors, so Yuan Cang will leave at every turn and stop negotiating. If the negotiations can go smoothly,  That's nothing. Unfortunately, the negotiations were extremely unsmooth. I tried my best and tried my best, but I couldn't change the situation."

    Xiong Huai couldn't help but sigh.

    such a pity!

    Xiong Huai didn't waste any more nonsense. He said directly: "In this case, we will proceed according to the other party's conditions. We will reach an agreement as soon as possible, and then exchange money, food, etc. with our ancestors at the border. We will deliver the goods with one hand and deliver the goods with the other. When the ancestors come back in exchange, we will  Immediately send troops to attack, enter the territory of Qi State, and break Lujiang County."

    "I understand!"

    Qu Ping immediately agreed.

    Sending troops to attack Lujiang County was something that had been agreed upon before, and Qu Ping had no objections.  What's more, after suffering such a big loss, it would be too cowardly not to get it back.

    Xiong Huai said again: "Since we are going to send troops, we will attack as a whole. During the great turmoil in Zhou Dynasty, Chu State has been secretly planning to start from Yangzhou. Now that Gu Kang has been lost, we will fight with all our strength and destroy Yangzhou first. This  You must be ready to fight, and you must fight well. You let Li Jinglong lead the troops, and quietly lead the troops to ambush at the border."

    "yes!"

    Qu Ping answered again.

    Li Jinglong is the general of the Chu State in the north. He is a veteran general in the court and has rich experience.

    After Xiong Huai finished talking about the matter, he ordered: "Let's draw up a treaty, I will use the seal directly."

    "yes!"

    Qu Ping personally drew up the terms. Xiong Huai took out the jade seal and stamped it with his seal, then let Qu Ping leave with the treaty.  When Qu Ping just walked to the palace gate, Xiong Huai's voice came again, saying: "Prime Minister, wait a minute!"

    Qu Ping said: "Your Majesty, do you have any other instructions?"

    Xiong Huai said: "After agreeing on the terms, the money and food to be delivered next are all armor, etc. You have to do a little manipulation of these materials. All food must be old food, even spoiled food. All armor must be  It is almost abandoned. As for the craftsmen, just send a few craftsmen and pair them with a group of apprentices. In short, weA great foundation.  In terms of martial arts, my lord even captured the great master Xiong Yuanxiang alive.  When it comes to the lord, Xiong Huai cannot be compared with our Qi country.  "

    Qu Ping didn¡¯t answer.

    Yuan Cang continued: "When it comes to the combat effectiveness of Chu and Qi, which country is stronger? It's very simple. Xiong Tai died on the battlefield and Gu Kang's army was defeated. The strength of both sides is high."

    "When it comes to potential, the Chu State is in a corner. Our Qi State occupies the land of Qingzhou and Xuzhou and is far stronger than the Chu State. In addition to other aspects, whether it is population, folk customs, civil servants and generals, Qi State is crushing  From Chu State."

    "Under this premise, why should we serve Chu State?"

    "Qu Xiang said that I was arguing, but the fact is that it is right in front of you. There is no need to argue. It's just that you turned a blind eye. Prime Minister Qu, you will not last long if you follow King Xiong Huai of Chu."

    "The general trend of the world lies with our country of Qi. In the future, it will be the country of Qi that will dominate the world and rule the nine states."

    Yuan Cang looked determined and said: "You serve my king now, and you have the merit of following the dragon. In the future, when you want to submit to my lord again, you missed the opportunity and lost everything. Prime Minister Qu, the opportunity  Don¡¯t miss it, don¡¯t miss it!¡±

    On the contrary, Yuan Cang looked like he was thinking about Qu Ping.

    Qu Ping was extremely aggrieved.

    He naturally wanted to refute.

    ¡° Just thinking about it carefully, Wang Qi is indeed in the limelight and extremely powerful.  The most important thing is that the affairs of Xiong Tai and Xiong Yuanxiang have made the Chu State extremely passive and it is difficult to show the power of the Chu State.

    Qu Ping smiled and said: "Mr. Yuan, I still believe that Chu will definitely rule the world. Although Wang Qi is strong, it is just a flash in the pan and will not last long."

    Yuan Cang said: "In that case, let's wait and see. I hope Prime Minister Qu won't regret it."

    Qu Ping said: "I will never regret the truth."

    Yuan Cang said: "In that case, let's wait and see. Prime Minister, bid farewell!"

    Qu Ping nodded. He watched Yuan Cang leave. Looking at Yuan Cang's leaving figure, Qu Ping actually felt a little regretful.  Because Qu Ping felt that Yuan Cang was a talent, but he was working for Wang Qi.
