Spring and Autumn I Am King

Chapter 483: Weak countries have no diplomacy

ps: there is another chapter in the evening

In the hall, an old man and a young man knelt on the seats, the old man frowned, checking the pulse of the young gentleman, while the beautiful woman standing by the side was worried. 【Read the latest chapter..】

After a while, the old man let go of the pulse-diagnosing hand, and said lightly: "It's not in the way, it's just a minor illness. The days in May are the longest, and although the yang qi is strong, the y qi also begins to generate, and the two form a fighting trend. This is where the division between life and death begins. Therefore, Si Kou must remember to fast physically and mentally, and even at home, he must not be naked, and must not be impatient; he must suspend singing and music, not be close to women, and do not enter the imperial concubine room..."

After speaking, Yi Bian Que glanced at the blushing woman next to her and shook her head.

These young people just don't know temperance.

Zhao Wuxi smiled and asked Bo Mi to step back, and said, "I didn't expect to get a small illness in May. During the day, talking to Meng Tan would make him groggy, and at night, he started to have a fever and talk nonsense. , scared others. Since it's not in the way, the kid should pay more attention in the future, but I think it's mostly caused by the impatient mood recently. "

Bian Que nodded. Since the establishment of the hospital in Yuncheng, doctors have gained a foothold, but Zhao Wuxi also presented them with a problem: although the government will provide some medicinal materials and funds, the hospital needs to achieve a balance of payments. Only by relying on the level that you can maintain yourself can you promote it in Xilu!

This is painful for Bian Que. Their diagnosis and treatment of Chinese people no longer need to be paid, but the money for medicine cannot be ignored. When they were worried about making ends meet, luckily they learned of Bian Que's name from Lu, Wei, Qi, Cao and other places, and came here. There are not a few wealthy scholars and doctors who seek medical treatment with a lot of money. For these people, the cost of diagnosis and treatment for Bian Que and his direct disciples is very high!

So after half a year, it has basically achieved a turnaround. Of course, all the surplus went to the magpies who went down to Lilu to check the epidemic.

Bian Que is not young anymore. Usually, he basically instructs his disciples and rarely seeks medical treatment in person, only making exceptions for a few people such as Zhao Wuxi. This morning, the people from Sikou's house rushed to the hospital, but Bian Que was also frightened.

He was afraid of what happened to Zhao Wuxi, so can Xilu, a place that can promote the career of doctors, be preserved? So Bian Que made up his mind, no matter what. We must let Zhao Xiaojun live for a long time. Even if he dies, he will leave one or two disciples as Zhao Wuxi's private doctor. Fortunately, the only female disciple was his unmarried wife. When Le Qi's mourning period ended, he had to teach Le Lingzi some health-preserving medical skills.

Seeing Zhao Wuxi at this time is not a big problem, just a headache. After Bian Que prescribed a few doses of the medicine, he declined to stay, and packed the medicine box to leave.

Before leaving, he once again instructed: "Everything can't be rushed, remember to eat light food, don't pursue all the five flavors; you must control your cravings, calm your mind; keep your body in a quiet state, and don't be greedy in your work, in order to wait for the battle of yang. Finish."

Zhao Wuxi nodded silently, but he couldn't stop laughing bitterly in his heart. Don't be greedy and wait for the result of the struggle? The situation is delicate now. He has returned to the state of walking on thin ice again, where can he not be in a hurry, where can he sit and wait?

Even if he is afflicted with serious illness, he has to drag his sick body to handle government affairs, not to mention now?

Sure enough, just after Bian Que left, Zhang Mengtan, Zhao Wuxi's first adviser, arrived at the back.

...

Zhang Meng talked about the white cloth and the towel, and sweat beaded on his forehead because he was in a hurry. As soon as he entered the door, he asked with concern: "Is there a serious problem with Si Kou's disease?"

"No hindrance, no hindrance." Zhao Wuxi and Zhang Mengtan bowed to each other. Then beckon him to sit down.

This is the difference between the pre-Qin monarch-subject relationship and the later generations, life and death? Thinking about it too much, although everyone is a monarch and subject, they are equal in personality. Saluting each other is the basic etiquette of being a human being. In the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, because the lord Nada was rude to the ministers, there were many cases where the other party kicked you and ran to the enemy country to serve your life.

Those who win are prosperous, those who lose are perish, so scholars are precious, but kings are not. Sincerely said.

Wu Xie would rather do this than go to some dynasty and face a bunch of kowtow bugs without kneecaps.

Zhang Mengtan breathed a sigh of relief after learning that Zhao Wuxi was just a Xiaojie, although he was now the second person under Zhao Xiaosikou, so he could be arbitrary in many things at a young age. But he knew that, as a foreigner from Jin, everything in Xilu came from Zhao Wuxi's trust and reliance. If something happens to Zhao Xiaosikou, Zhang Mengtan has no foundation in the army, and he can't even control Xilu completely...

It's okay to be fine, especially in this delicate and extraordinary period, this small force needs a backbone so that it won't fall apart.

"The servants have blocked the news about Si Kou's illness. Except for Doctor Bian Que, the servants and Mu Xia probably know about it, and they will never cause any movement."

Zhao Wuxi nodded, leaving the matter to Zhang Mengtan is worth reassuring: "You did a good job, I was in a daze before, and I didn't remember many things. Let's continue what we said yesterday..."

"Si Kou, you have to take the medicine first..." When he turned around, he saw the bright young girl holding the medicine cup and offering it to him. It didn't take long before Bo Mi had already fried a cup of the medicine that Bian Que had prepared and offered it.

Wu Xie could only drink the bitter concoction while listening to Zhang Meng talk about analyzing the situation.

"Yesterday, the servants have said that Qilu's peace talks are harmful to Si Kou but not beneficial."

Yesterday, Zhang Mengtan analyzed Zhao Wuxi and said that Qi Guo asked for peace this time, and it was not Lu Guo who was afraid of him, but him.

"The state of Qi hoped to rely on the technique of light and weight to ban salt and trap Lu, but it was resolved by the coup of Si Kou and Zigong. A lot of losses were incurred. And the boat masters sent by Qi’s popularity were also repelled. With Xilu’s coinage, it was difficult for Qi Dao to flow in, and there was one less weapon that could control Ludi’s cargo settlement. Qi people began to be anxious. Now If they want to be tough, Nasko can't unless they send a large army to fight again. So they chose to be soft and reconcile with Lu on the open, but their purpose is still to conspire against Xilu."

Wu Xie said: "If the name is not correct, the words will not go well, Qi Hou finally remembered, I am a minister of Lu Hou after all, if Qi Lu and Lu are reconciled, I can only stop the army and truce, then Qi State can take a rest slowly, come here. Picture me again every day..."

"Of course, the servants guessed that one of the conditions for Qi's request for peace must be to return the land they took!"

The Qi state controlled the Lu state's Kamedian, Guanyi and other places.

And the control of the state of Lu is Linqiu!

Linqiu, which is now located at the heart of Xilu, if Qi returned here again, the semi-independent regime of Wu Xian would lose its integrity, like a sharp thorn in the middle of its confidant.

Although the Qilu talks were only to discuss the peace between the two countries, if Jin did nothing after that, then the rulers and ministers of Lu would definitely try to reconcile with the traditional friends Wei Wei and Zheng Ye, and completely withdraw from the chaos of the war.

At that time, what will Zhen Cheng and Pu Nan do? According to Sanhuan's nature of bullying the soft and fearing the hard, and would rather send the ground to the enemy, but also fight against the outside world to the end, they will join forces with Qi and Wei to keep pressing Zhao Wuxi to make concessions. At that time, not only will these occupied areas not be guaranteed, but even Gao Yu, Fan, Qin and other towns that are now under the jurisdiction of other doctors but already under the control of Zhao Wuxi will not be preserved!

Under Zhang Mengtan's excellent decoupling, a simple peace negotiation was led to a series of dark backhands, which made Zhao Wuxi's forehead suddenly covered with cold sweat.

The embankment of a thousand miles was destroyed by Ant X, so he must stop the peace talks between Qilu!

So he said: "As a small Si Kou, I can be considered as an important minister of the State of Lu who can participate in political affairs, and I am also a great monarch of the border. I can talk about peace with Qi. How about taking the initiative to object?"

Zhang Mengtan shook his head and said, "It is absolutely impossible. Now the Marquis of Lu, Sanhuan, and even the great uncle Confucius are willing to reconcile with Qi. After all, Jinqi's struggle for hegemony has nothing to do with the interests of the state of Lu. After Yanghu fell, Sanhuan wanted to truce for a long time. However, since Si Kou entered Lu and Jin troops came twice, he had to hold on until now. Therefore, reconciliation with Qi is not only the mind of the court officials, but also the hope of the people of Lu. If Si Kou refuses to make peace. Instead, I will fall into the trap of the Marquis of Qi and cause Quanlu's resentment. At that time, Qi Guotu and I will not be a matter of three or five years, but I can find an excuse with Sanhuan at any time to launch..."

The relationship between monarch and ministers, this shackle was not locked in the Spring and Autumn Period, but it could still crush people to the point of immobility. Two years ago, Zhao Wuxi entered Lu from desperation, and his identity as a doctor in the country of Lu gave him all kinds of convenience, but now, he has to bear the blame.

Wuyi has a headache: "Neither objection nor agreement, so how should this dead knot be untied?"

Zhang Meng said: "We still have to rely on Jin to intervene in a timely manner. The rulers of Lu are timid, and the threat of Jin can make them willing to maintain the status quo instead of taking risks."

Wu Xie's heart was as bitter as the medicine in his mouth: "Now that the Zhao family is in an eventful summer, and there is no time to send troops, it will take at least a few months before they can respond. As for the other ministers, the Zhi family has never been interested in foreign affairs, I am afraid It would be better to lose the state of Lu, but also to damage the Zhao family, but Han Wei can't be the master."

The state of Jin is now full of affairs both inside and outside the country, and it is difficult to even teach the Wei state on the side a good lesson, not to mention crossing the border to attack Qi and Lu...

Zhang Mengtan leaned closer and said, "So what we need is time. Si Kou might as well pretend to agree to the peace talks first, but he doesn't promise any conditions. At the same time, he asks to participate in the Jiagu meeting. Then we will adapt to the situation and wait for the opportunity to dominate the situation!"

Pretend to promise ~lightnovelpub.net~ and then participate in the Jiagu meeting?

"The strategy of Qi State's peace talks is to divide Si Kou and Lucheng's Sanhuan, and let Lu fight in the country. But Si Kou might as well take the plan, it can not only delay time, but also take advantage of strength. Qi State's peace talks are not sincere, But there is a plan, and the same is true for Sanhuan, but there are still people in the court of Lu who take Lu's interests seriously..."

Wu Chi suddenly said, "For example, Hou Lu himself, and Confucius!"

In order to weaken Zhao Wuxi, he betrayed the vested interests of the state of Lu. With Confucius' character, Zhao Wuxi felt that he could not do it, and Luhou would be ashamed to agree. If Zhao Wucheng himself joins in again, the most he and Qi Guo can seek this time is to maintain the status quo at the border and stop fighting!

"Of course! But just relying on Confucius' few hundreds of disciples and Sanhuan's vulnerable clan soldiers are not enough to support a peace negotiation! Marquis Lu and Confucius are afraid of Si Kou, but they have to rely on Si Kou, Si Kou also Do you remember what you said to Zigong?"

Zhao Wuxi watched Zhang Meng talk for a while, then showed a clear smile and said, "Of course, weak countries have no diplomacy!" (To be continued.)
