The Queen of War

Fengyu palace was deserted, leaving only Zhong Wuyan and Qiuyue. Although there are only two of them, it is still very clean and spotless. Without the harassment of idle people, their life is also carefree. Xia Yingchun is pregnant and has no time to pay attention to her for the time being. Except that Tian Ji will come to visit her occasionally, no one will come here again.

Zhong Wuyan brought a bucket of water and watered the flowers in the yard. Without the care of those palace people, these flowers are more and more beautiful. The delicate flowers are still stained with crystal beads, which is very fresh and lovely. But compared with Zhong Wuyan's gorgeous face, he is still a little ashamed.

"Miss, it's very nice of you to take care of these flowers!" Qiuyue smiled at the flowers in full bloom in the yard. "At the beginning, you planted the best flowers in Taohua mountain. Now it seems that your craft is better than those gardeners in the palace. Their flowers are not as vigorous as those you raised."

Qiuyue's remark is not a compliment, because father-in-law Chen can't send some good flowers to Fengyu palace. They are all left by Xia Yingchun, so she underestimates the level of gardeners in the palace. Moreover, Zhong Wuyan did raise flowers. During her salt free days, she helped her adoptive father take care of flowers and plants every day, so she was no stranger to these things.

At this time, Tian Bijiang hurried in. His eyes were incomparably strong, his two sword eyebrows were locked, and he seemed to have an inseparable knot. The perfect face carved like a ghost axe nerve, pale like the snow on the top of Tianshan Mountain, cold and chilling. The weather was so hot, but a layer of frost seemed to condense on his face. No matter how warm the sun was, it could not melt the ruthless frost. He was wearing a court uniform. Obviously, he had just retired from the court. He didn't even have time to change his clothes, so he hurried to find Zhong Wuyan.

"Your majesty!" Zhong Wuyan knew that something big must have happened as soon as she saw Tian Bijiang's locked eyebrows.

Otherwise, he would never come here when Xia Yingchun was pregnant. She wanted to rush forward, stretch out her slender jade hand and smooth her frown. She didn't want to see his worried look.

Tian Bijiang walked straight over. He grabbed Zhong Wuyan's jade wrist and dragged it directly to the bedroom.

"King!" surprised Zhong Wuyan, the bucket in her hand fell on the ground and the water spilled all over the ground.

The well water, which was not bound by the bucket, quickly spread on the baked hot ground. Before long, there was only a shallow wet mark left.

The autumn moon turned her eyes when she saw it.

"Something big must have happened again!" she sneered and thought in her heart, "otherwise, how could he know where the gate of Fengyu palace is going? At this time, why not go to your concubine Xia, who will make you petty and control people?"

It's not that Qiuyue underestimated Tian Bijiang. It's true. There must be something to worry about as soon as he remembers Zhong Wuyan. If he had nothing to do, he had even forgotten that he had married such a queen. In his heart, there was only the beautiful summer Yingchun.

"What's the matter, your majesty?" Zhong Wuyan asked nervously, rarely seeing Tian Bijiang's worried look.

Tian Bijiang sat in a chair, his eyebrows locked, and his eyes were full of killing opportunities.

"You know what? Prince Yan led the disabled people to restore the country on the border of the old land of the former state of Yan. He sent a special envoy to Qi to ask for the return of the old land of the state of Yan! The special envoy's tongue was really powerful. All the ministers agreed with his words. This..."

Tian Bijiang shuddered at the thought of the tongue of the special envoy of the state of Yan. Don't mention the ministers. Even after listening to him, he felt that he had to return the city to the state of Yan. That tongue is almost more than a thousand troops and horses. It makes people shudder and tremble at the news.

"The messenger's name is Zhang Yi?" Zhong Wuyan's eyes tightened and hurriedly asked, "is it su Qin?"

"Su Qin." Tian Bijiang gently wiped the cold sweat from his forehead with his sleeve. "His tongue is very powerful. Although King Gu knew that he couldn't return the city he had won to the state of Yan. But when he said, it was... It seemed that if he didn't return the city to the state of Yan, the state of Qin would attack the state of Qi."

Qin and Yan are in laws. According to Su Qin, Yan's restoration is supported by Qin. Now among the seven countries, only Qin, Zhao, Chu and Qi have the strongest military strength, and the king of Qin has great ambition. Now the state of Qi destroys Yan, it will certainly take this as an excuse to attack the state of Qi. Although Qin did not move, the army had already practiced secretly.

"You know, compared with the state of Qin, the military strength of the state of Qi is still a little inferior." Tian Bijiang said anxiously, "Although Qi and the three countries have formed an alliance, the last time Qi didn't send troops to save South Korea, several countries have different feelings towards loneliness. Moreover, the state of Lu is ready to move now. If Qin unites with Lu and the other countries don't send troops, Qi is really under attack..."

Zhong Wuyan could not help but frown slightly.

"When Zizhi ran away, I expected today." she thought and said, "why don't you let my concubine meet with Su Qin for a while. If you want to return all the land of Yan, it's absolutely impossible. However, if you don't cut off part of the land, I'm afraid Yan won't give up. If Lu won the first battle, we don't have to be embarrassed here."

Indeed, if the battle of the state of Lu is won, the border problem of Qi does not exist. It can concentrate on dealing with the state of Qin. But now, things are in a mess. Even if Zhong Wuyan can fight again, her tender hands can't handle all this. Su Qin's tongue is enough to make the dead live. Zhong Wuyan is not sure about this matter. After all, this time, he is facing the extremely powerful Su Qin. He can beat the thousands of Su Qin with only one tongue!

Zhong Wuyan's words embarrassed Tian Bijiang. He knew that if Zhong Wuyan had led his troops to attack the state of Lu, there would be no situation today. Although Tian Ji is good, he still can't compare with Zhong Wuyan. He is brave but not intelligent. Of course, if Sun Bin assisted on one side that day, he would not end up like this. He was led by the nose by a mere Su Qin. But what can he do? Everything is in the hands of master Xia. There is nothing he can do.

"The bottom line is fifteen cities." Tian Bijiang thought for a moment and said coldly, "grand master Xia means twenty cities, which can't be done. If you give them, didn't Qi sacrifice so many soldiers in vain?"

Every inch of territory, Tian Bijiang is not willing to give up, although he robbed those cities. However, isn't it true that the seven countries have been robbing each other all the time? If he doesn't rob the territory of the state of Yan, the state of Yan will rob him. How many years have the flames of war been burning between the seven countries? Who has the ability to stop it? He doesn't know, and he doesn't want to know.

Zhong Wuyan listened, thought and said, "Your Majesty, please rest assured that my concubine will minimize the loss. Tomorrow morning, my concubine will meet Su Qin. Although my tongue is not as sharp as his, I'm still willing to try."

She is really not a very talkative person, but she still wants to meet Su Qin and observe his weaknesses. As long as he is human, he will have weaknesses. As long as we grasp his weakness, Zhong Wuyan feels that she still has a chance.

The hot sun mercilessly sprinkled on the earth, but the imperial garden was cool and refreshing than other places. Lotus leaf fields, beautiful lotus leaves, like a small green umbrella, look fresh and lovely. The pink petals seem to be coated with a layer of good rouge, better than the girl with the first makeup. Coupled with a pool of clear water, the scenery here is more and more beautiful and charming.

Su Qin stood quietly in the pavilion and looked at the pool of lotus. There was a faint sadness on his face full of vicissitudes. He is a middle-aged man in his forties. His white hair is like silver, his body is jade, and he is handsome. In his deep eyes, there is a strange light.

"Send a woman to see me. There is really no one in the state of Qi!" he thought with disdain, "Zhong Wuyan can lead troops to war, but when it comes to tongue, who can be compared with Su Qin except Zhang Yi?"

Looking at the pool of clear water, he suddenly thought of a woman. That woman may have once enjoyed the lotus here, and may also stand in the same position with him.

"Don't be melancholy at night in the red chamber. The incense lamp is half a tassel tent. When the waning moon goes out, the beauty talks with tears. The lute is golden and green, and the yellow warbler speaks on the string. He advised me to go home early. The green window is like a flower." looking at the graceful lotus, Su Qin couldn't help but sing in a low voice.

Zhong Wuyan walked slowly through the imperial garden. She was wearing a pink gauze skirt. The breeze blew her satin hair and looked graceful like a fairy. Where she passed, even the wind was sweet.

She clearly heard the poems sung by Su Qin. She couldn't help trembling, and the bronze mirror in the dilapidated palace came to her mind.
