Chapter 656_The young and energetic Shaozi Tu

Shaozi Tu is the youngest son of Chujiu, Marquis of Qi, and is not yet as good as Wei Guan.

Since ancient times, the ancient emperors often favored their younger sons. Therefore, Qi Hou Chujiu did prefer him. Just like this alliance meeting, Qi Hou Chujiu only took him out to see the world, and now the court meeting is also

Let them attend and observe.

However, Shao Zitu has always just listened and said nothing.

But now he saw his father's predicament, so he suddenly came out to speak.

After hearing this, Chujiu, the Marquis of Qi, couldn't help but smile and looked at Shaozi Tu with great satisfaction.

"Tu'er, do you also think that returning these three places will not be a disadvantage to our country of Qi?"

Young Master Tu raised his head and answered firmly:

"My son indeed thinks so. After all, there will be many places where your father will use troops in the future. Although the three hundred chariots of Lu State are not much, they are still a big help. Moreover, this is even more important.

It is a symbol of our country’s achievements in conquering the masses with virtue!”

"Besides, diplomatic relations with the Lu State are related to the future competition between Qi and Jin. I feel that the temporary gain and loss of land is insignificant compared with this."

"I think that if the king and father want to do kingly things, the key still lies in whether the whole country of Qi can be united and whether the country of Qi can keep its word to the princes of the world. How can it be compared with three small places?

Where is the sincerity and sincerity of all the princes in the world?"

Chujiu, the Marquis of Qi, was overjoyed when he heard this. Shao Zitu's words spoke directly to his heart.

He had always liked this young boy Tu, but now he was becoming more and more pleasing to his eyes.

"Well... what Tu'er said is true! You old ministers are not as good as a young boy like me. It's really a joke!"

The words of Chujiu, Marquis of Qi, were very serious.

At this time, Gao Zhang heard this and hurriedly came out of the queue and said:

"Young master is the son of the king, so his vision is broad. It is normal for my ministers not to wait!"

Qi Hou Chujiu stroked his beard and said:

"Tu'er is indeed pretty good, and my efforts to cultivate her are not in vain!"

Just as Tian Qi was about to speak, Liang Qiuju also came out and said:

"Since your Majesty thinks that this alliance is not satisfactory, it is understandable to do so. As the saying goes, 'If a gentleman has a fault, thank him with acknowledgment; if a villain has a fault, thank him with a letter. If you condole with him, thank him with truth'!"

According to the meaning of this sentence, Liang Qiu actually agreed with the return of the land of Lu by the Marquis of Qi.

Especially this sentence: "A gentleman can make up for his mistakes with material things, but a villain can only make up for his mistakes with words." According to Liang Qiu, this man is indeed an old fox, and he does know how to comply with the king's wishes.

As Li Ran said, what Liangqiu is best at is how to blindly cater to the emperor's wishes.

He was actually waiting and watching at first. At this time, he had noticed Qi Hou Chujiu's true intention and listened to Shao Zitu's words, so he immediately came out to cater to him.

Qi Hou Chujiu smiled and said:

"Hahaha! Liang Qiuzhi is really in harmony with me!"

Tian Qi was extremely dissatisfied with this and couldn't help but glared at Liang Qiuzi:

"Your Majesty! This matter is related to the integrity of our land of Qi! Please think twice!"

Qihou Chujiu said:

"Oh? Those three places were originally the land of Lu State. Now they just want to be returned. How can it still affect the integrity of Qi State's territory?"

Tian Qi said:

"When the Emperor of Zhou granted the land to Grand Duke Wang, the land was small and the people were few. It was only through the efforts of several generations, especially through Duke Xiang and Duke Huan, that the territory was able to grow step by step."

"During this period, we have also occupied a lot of land from neighboring countries. If so, do we have to return it all? If this is true, how much land will our Qi country have left?"

"These lands of the State of Lu are now owned by the State of Qi, and the soldiers fought for them with their lives. To return them so easily will cause endless troubles! Please think twice, sir!"

Finally, Tian Qi finally revealed his true thoughts.

However, when Qi Hou Chujiu heard these words, he didn't know how to answer them for a while.

Tu, the young son, answered on behalf of his father:

"Lord Tian, ​​what you said is wrong! In the past, Taigong Wangnai obtained the special permission from King Cheng of Zhou Dynasty, 'As far as the sea in the east, the river in the west, Muling in the south, and Wudi in the north, the five princes and nine uncles can actually conquer it.' From this, Qi State was able to conquer.

The power of conquest means that our country of Qi has been the capital of a great nation since its inception! How can we say how much land is left?"

This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! "Furthermore, these three lands now far exceed the territory chartered by the emperor back then. And the State of Lu is a state with the surname Ji, the most popular

Zhou Li, if we, the State of Qi, occupy the land of the State of Lu and do not return it, won’t we be ridiculed by the world?”

"Master Tian, ​​please don't abandon public service for personal reasons. You should still put the overall situation first!"

Tian Qi's face turned blue and white as he listened. He never expected that he would be embarrassed by what this boy said.

"I have the overall situation in mind! If I return the land of the Lu State today, will it be time to return the land of the Lu people tomorrow? I have no selfish intentions!"

I heard Shao Zitu say tit for tat again:

"The State of Lu is a country of etiquette, how can it be compared with barbarians like Lai Ren? Master Tian said this, but it is too presumptuous!"

"The first title of the Lu State was the Duke of Zhou! In recent years, although Yang Hu has caused trouble and has not dealt with our Qi State, after all, his luck is endless!"

"If our Qi State can return the three lands, then if we get the support of the Lu State in the future, our hegemony can be restored! If we become enmity with the Lu State because of this, our hegemony will be difficult to prosper!"

"Is Mr. Tian's obstruction because he feels that these places are now owned by the Tian family, so the Tian family has suffered a big loss? Is this not considered selfish by Mr. Tian?"

As Tian Qi listened, his heart was filled with anger.

Since he came to power, especially after Yan Ying's death, has anyone ever said this to him?

Now, he was scolded by the young boy Tu who was less than twenty years old in front of him, which made Tian Qi unable to get off the stage.

As for Shaozi Tu, it was obvious that a newborn calf was not afraid of tigers, so he continued to output:

"Master Tian just kept saying that all the fiefdoms of the Tian family belong to Qi State. But now he is making strong arguments and is reluctant to show it. Is it possible that Master Tian, ​​the king of my country, can deceive me like this?"

When Tian Qi heard these words, he suddenly felt a little frightened.

Although Chujiu, Marquis of Qi, relied on him and was somewhat old-fashioned, he was not so stupid that he could not make decisions.

Tian Qi suddenly paused and knelt down on the ground:

"How dare I think so? I only want Qi to become stronger and stronger, and I don't dare to have any private thoughts... If your Majesty really thinks so, how dare I not return it? Please give me a clear warning!"

Qihou Chujiu looked at Shaozi Tu with a smile, and he could see himself in his youth.

He also came to the throne at a young age, first pacified Cui Zhu, and then pursued Qingfeng. From then on, the state affairs of Qi State were all in his hands, and at that time, Qi State also had a strong atmosphere of regaining hegemony.

At that time, Qi Hou Chujiu personally went to Jin to congratulate Duke Zhao of Jin who had just ascended the throne.

During the banquet, the two countries played a game of throwing pots. When Duke Zhao of Jin threw the pot, Wu of the Bank of China congratulated:

"We have wine as abundant as the water in the Huaihe River, and we have meat as abundant as the highlands in the water. Our Lord of Jin has made the investment, and the Jin Kingdom can be its commander-in-chief."

But Duke Zhao of Jin really hit the target with one shot, and the ministers of Jin State cheered.

At that time, the young and energetic Qi Hou Chujiu took the arrow and wished to himself:

"I have wine as abundant as Mianshui, and I have meat as abundant as mountains. I shot this arrow and became strong in place of the king of Jin."

After Qi Hou Chujiu finished speaking, he hit the target with one blow.

However, at that time, the Qi State was still in the midst of civil strife. Compared with the Jin State, which was at its peak, it was still at a disadvantage.

However, the young Qi Hou Chujiu at that time still showed his ambition to compete with the Jin State. It can be seen that the Qi Hou Chujiu was also very courageous at that time.

Therefore, when Qihou Chujiu looked at Shaozi Tu in front of him, he felt more and more pleased and couldn't help but say:

"In this case, the return of the land of Lu State has been decided!"
