The Six Arts of the Gentleman in the Bright Moon of Qin Dynasty

Chapter 727 Chu and the War Started [Subscribe*Monthly Ticket Request]

It would be a lie to say that I am not tempted by a position worth two hundred thousand.

Even though Hei Bai Xuan Jian is the leader of Qin's Luowang, Luowang is ultimately an organization that cannot be seen in public.

As for the position of minister, there are only a few in a country, and very few can become ministers.

The most important thing is that the position of noble is a hereditary system and can be inherited.

If the Qin State could also buy the position of a noble with money, Hei Bai Xuan Jian would do everything he could to get one. As for the Qi State, he thought about it and decided to give up, as it only had a few years left.

"If Lord Xuan Jian is willing, I can give you a discount!" King Jian of Qi saw that Hei Bai Xuan Jian was interested and spoke with a smile.

"Forget it, forget it!" Hei Bai Xuan Jian waved his hands repeatedly. He wanted to get something for free!

Once he agreed, the King of Qi would most likely use their transaction to pay off his debts and give him a position as a minister.

The problem is that it is useless for him to get the position of minister in Qi. It is impossible for him to come to Qi to hold an important position. What's more, what will the King of Qin think of him?

It was just extra money he earned, and he also wanted to receive a salary and official position from the State of Qi. It would be strange if the censor did not impeach him.

Although the memorials impeaching him written by the Qin censors could fill up a warehouse, there is a difference between hearsay and solid evidence.

King Jian of Qi felt a little regretful that he failed to get something for free.

He even dared to assassinate a feudal lord, so what was the value of a noble title?

Hei Bai Xuan Jian looked at the list handed over by King Jian of Qi in a very professional manner, and then placed the list directly on the candle flame and burned it.

"See? This is professionalism!" When King Jian of Qi saw Hei Bai Xuan Jian's actions, he said to the guards around him with a flattering smile.

Hei Bai Xuan Jian's hands trembled, and he suddenly seemed to have forgotten several of the names on the list!
The main reason was that King Jian of Qi wanted him to kill too many people this time.

However, Hei Bai Xuan Jian remained calm and nodded in acceptance. As for those who had forgotten, just forget them. There was still Wang Jian. It would not be wrong for Wang Jian to kill the nobles of the city he attacked.

Even if it's wrong, just think of it as buy one get one free, with Qi Wang Jian as an extra.

"Let me make it clear first. If a master tries to stop me, I will not fight him to the death!" Hei Bai Xuan Jian still said the ugly words in advance.

Although the possibility of encountering a master is not high, what if?
After all, it is unacceptable that such a large country as Qi could have enjoyed peace for forty years without a master in charge.

"Don't worry, if a master takes action, Lord Xuan Jian can just leave!" King Jian of Qi didn't care.

He was not sure whether Qi had a master or not, but even if there was, he probably wouldn't be willing to fight to the death with another master for those scums.

"That's fine!" After getting the promise, Hei Bai Xuan Jian left the dark room directly.

"Why did the king kill so many royal family members?" The captain of the guards was still puzzled by King Qi Jian's behavior.

King Jian of Qi always killed the royal family members but did not take back the local ownership, which seemed to be a completely thankless task.

At first they thought that King Jian of Qi was ambitious and wanted to kill those corrupt officials in the royal family and then take back power in Linzi, but later they found that this was not the case at all.

Those parasites in the royal family were killed, but power was not taken back to Linzi. Instead, it returned to the hands of local petty nobles, making them great nobles.

"It depends on whether Qin gives me this time!" King Jian of Qi looked towards the west and sighed.

If Qin gave Qi this time and opportunity, with Qi's wealth, even if Qin annexed the Three Jins and destroyed Yan and Chu, Qi would still have a chance to stand on equal footing with Qin.

If the Qin State does not give him this opportunity, then he will become a scapegoat for the Qin State!
"Let's go, let's go back!" King Jian of Qi didn't think about anything else.

Things are in our hands, but it depends on God's will. There is a difference between trying hard and not doing something.

"Perhaps Bingzhou will buy us this time!" the captain of the guard said seriously.

After all, they spent a lot of money to ask Bingzhou to send troops to help them garrison.

King Jian of Qi smiled and shook his head. He was still too young. Bingzhou had been able to take advantage of all the princes once or even twice. How could it have any integrity?

Rather than trusting Bingzhou to help them block Qin's attack, it would be better to hope for meteorites to fall from the sky and kill all the Qin troops!
Once Qin wanted to attack Qi, King Zheng of Qin would definitely notify Emperor Xuanwu first, and then the Bingzhou army would definitely withdraw in advance.

Therefore, Bingzhou can help them stop Yan and Chu, but will never stop Qin for them.

The fundamental reason is that Yan and Chu did not dare to go to war with Bingzhou. Even if they did, they could not defeat Bingzhou. However, Qin really dared to do so and could cause Bingzhou to suffer heavy losses!

King Jian of Qi left and returned to Linzi.

However, an accident occurred, shocking the world and leaving all the princes stunned.

Qin was ecstatic, Chu was furious, and Yan was shocked.

"Chu and Bingzhou have gone to war?" King Jian of Qi, who had just returned to Linzi, looked at the information summoned from Yangdu in disbelief.

Just ten days ago, the Chu army raided Qiyang City under the jurisdiction of Yangdu, killing more than 50 Qiyang soldiers guarding Bingzhou and capturing nearly 100.

"Chu State, what are you trying to do?" Xianyang also received the information sent back by Wang Jian and others on the front line. Ying Zheng, Guo Wei Liao and other court officials also looked confused.

The State of Yan, King Xi of Yan and Yan Chunjun were all confused. How dare the State of Chu do this? Are they so brave?

Even Li Ren, who was in charge of Yangdu, didn’t understand what the State of Chu was going to do!
If the State of Chu was unwilling to give up the State of Qi, there would be no need for it to give up Yangdu, a strategic location.

There is no need to retake them after the Bingzhou army has taken over the cities of Qi.

"What are they trying to do?" Li Ren had no idea what the State of Chu was trying to do.

The time goes back to the eve of the fall of Qiyang.

Nanwu City of Chu State, once the second largest city of Lu State, is also the former residence of many Confucian sages.

The three playboys of the Chu prince Fu Chu, Qu Jingzhao and other noble playboys from all over the Chu State continued their life of drunkenness and debauchery in Nanwu City.

However, a royal edict arrived, ordering them to return to Shouchun, and their respective secret information channels told them that King Wan of Chu was critically ill and urgently summoned Prince Fu Chu to return to the capital.

Then this group of idle playboys got together and counted the resources they had, and someone suggested that they should not return empty-handed.

Especially since there is more than one prince in the State of Chu, if Prince Fu Chu wants to inherit the throne, he must have some outstanding achievements.

Therefore, after carefully counting the soldiers and generals they had, they found that they could actually gather 5,000 troops.

Thinking about what Xiang Liang and Ji Bu said, the Bingzhou Army was just like that, defeated by the Tenglong Legion and the Leibao Legion successively.

Then they all felt that they were no worse than the two legions. What's more, they only planned to occupy Qiyang and then withdraw their troops back to Shouchun. Bingzhou would not dare to go to war with them because of the gain or loss of a city.

In the end, a group of playboys led their own soldiers and generals to attack Qiyang City.

There were not many soldiers left in Qiyang City, only one commander of five hundred.

As for these playboys in Chu State, the five hundred lords were also aware of them. After all, these people often came to Qiyang to play, so they had no defenses and were eventually ambushed by the guards of this group of people and the city gates were opened.
