Chapter 951: Not allowed to write official history? Then we can write unofficial history! What I want is peace in the world!
Carrying the hope of the whole country, Li Ke led 500 guards to leave Lingzhisai and rushed to the Qin army camp.
The historians of the Yan State were craning their necks and wanted to go with Li Ke, while the historians of the Qin State were eager to get into the tent, hoping to use the bamboo slips in their hands to record this event that was related to the survival of the Yan State, the overall development of the world, and might even become a milestone in the history of the Warring States Period. Lobbying.
However, neither the historians of Qin nor the historians of Yan, nor the entourage of the envoys of Yan, could enter the Qin army's tent with Li Ke.
They could only watch as Li Ke stepped into the Qin army's tent with his head held high at noon on January 25th (11:00).
At 13:00 on January 26th, I just walked out of the Qin army's tent with a flushed face and sloppy steps.
Looking around at the anxious, anxious and worried eyes, Li Ke first bowed his hands to the Qin army's tent, then turned to face the envoys of the State of Yan, and shouted excitedly: "Qin Chang'an is really a benevolent and righteous gentleman, and he does not want to see the suffering of the people." .”
"Qin Chang'an Lord has agreed to my request from Great Yan and will personally lead the elite Qin army north to Yuyang County to mediate the war between Yan and Dai and give all the people a chance to survive!"
"I, Dayan, will never perish!"
Listening to Li Ke's call, all the Yan envoys shouted excitedly: "I would like to congratulate the Prime Minister!"
"I, Dayan, will never die!!!"
The deafening sound rushed towards Li Ke.
Li Ke, whose excitement had subsided, could no longer support his body and fell backwards following the sound!
"Xiangbang!"
"Is Xiangbang okay?!"
"Is there a doctor among the Qin army? I will not hesitate to spend a lot of money, just to find a doctor to diagnose and treat my great Yan State!"
The envoys of the State of Yan rushed to Li Ke in panic, carried Li Ke to the open space with all their hands, and begged the Qin army to find a doctor for them.
However, the historians of the two countries and the ministers and generals who loved history were in trouble.
Instead of avenging Qi, which was in an alliance, Dai took advantage of Qi Qingzhuang, and even turned its spearhead to attack another ally, Yan, forcing Yan to ask for help from Qin, which was in alliance and attacking together.
Lord Chang'an of Qin put aside the feud between Qin and Yan and the war between Qin and Yan, and went north as the enemy's commander to mediate the war between the two allies, Dai and Yan.
Qin Changanjun's expedition was not only an expedition that changed the general trend of the world, but also further trampled on the sanctity of the covenant and made the world even more unable to trust the important event of the covenant. In the future, it is likely to be mentioned when countries form alliances or become enemies. Take this as an example.
It is impossible for them to turn a blind eye to such an important and significant historical node, but how should they write about it?
How did Li Ke convince Ying Chengyu? They have no idea at all! ! !
"Because Prince Dan of Yan sent an assassin to assassinate the King of Qin, Lord Qin Changan hated Yan deeply. What methods did Yan Xiangke use and what words did he say to make Lord Qin Changan put aside his prejudices and be willing to personally lead the army to mediate? The battle between Dai and Yan?”
"Yan Xiangke entered the Chinese army's tent at noon yesterday and just left the camp at midnight today. I have heard for a long time that Lord Qin Chang'an despised women. If Mrs. Han hadn't taken advantage of his unpreparedness to accept Xiaoxing, Lord Chang'an's mansion would have been destroyed. Daughters, looking at Yan Xiangke’s vain steps, could it be that Yan Xiangke betrayed him..."
"Hiss~~~ Be careful! Be careful! Do you want to die?! Someone actually thought that Yan Xiangke took advantage of the fact that Lord Qin Chang'an and Yan Xiangke were alone in the tent, and drew his sword to threaten Lord Qin Chang'an. The stalemate lasted for more than a day before Lord Qin Changan compromised!”
"Listen to what you are saying! That is Qin Changanjun who killed the enemy generals and charged into the battle! Although his bravery is inferior to Duweijiao, his bravery cannot be underestimated. If only Qin Changanjun and Yan Xiangke were alone In this room, the person who should be scared is Yan Xiangke!”
"You must never forget the style of a historian and record it truthfully!"
Historians and history enthusiasts murmured behind the crowd and speculated on everything that happened in the big tent.
Finally, the historians took out the bamboo slips and wrote a line of text together:
[Li Ke talked about Qin and asked the Lord of Chang'an to raise troops to stop the war. 】
A major event that could rewrite the world was carried by a mere piece of bamboo.
But how can twelve short words express the agitated emotions of the historians?
Several historians looked at each other, smiled and bowed in unison, retreated to a distance, took out another scroll of bamboo slips and splashed ink on it.
And further away, those history enthusiasts who did not have the baggage of historians were writing with gleaming eyes, and they had written half a volume of chapters in a short period of time!
In just a quarter of an hour, countless pieces of impassioned, witty, or unsuitable gossip were fabricated, and they would be accepted by historians decades or hundreds of years later and recorded in official history. A good story.
No one knows.
Ying Chengyu in the Chinese army tent did not have the sudden enlightenment after being enlightened, nor the shame and fear after being threatened by the sword, nor the posture of a sage who had just put on his lower clothes.
Some only have several wine burps in a row.
"Hiccup~"
After another burp filled with the smell of alcohol, Ying Chengyu took the hawthorn, plum, tangerine peel and sobering soup handed to him by the fortune teller, raised his head and poured it into his stomach.
"Hoo~"
Exhaling a puff of satisfied white mist, Ying Chengyu said in a daze: "Xiang Li is indeed a veteran who has been in the officialdom of the Yan Kingdom all his life."
“You really have a lot of alcohol!”
"This general is extremely difficult to defeat!"
The hexagram master laughed and said: "The reason why Prime Minister Li can drink a thousand cups without getting drunk is just because a good horse meets a bole and a wise minister knows the master. He can't help himself and is overjoyed, so he is greedy for cups and does not want to get drunk."
Ying Chengqiao also smiled and said: "This is the case with Prime Minister Li, and the same is true with me!"
"In the battle of Xibanyu, Prime Minister Li was defeated and fled. This made the generals despise Prime Minister Li, thinking that Prime Minister Li was only lucky enough to be the minister because of his father's reputation."
"Although he has some talent and learning, he is not very good."
"Of course! After a long conversation last night, I realized that although Prime Minister Li was born in a general family, his talents are not in the battlefield, but in internal affairs." "His understanding of the people's livelihood and the people's hearts in Yan land and the policy he proposed to determine the north are even more impressive. It will be an eye-opener.”
"I don't know what time it will be when I see you next time, Prime Minister Li. How can I spend such a good time sleeping soundly?"
"It's a pity that this general is not good at internal affairs. He can only listen to Li Xiang's sharing, but he is unable to judge."
"If Prime Minister Li is lucky enough to return to Qin in the future and does not hesitate to take the position of minister, I can recommend Prime Minister Li to Brother Wang, and Brother Wang will make the decision."
Everyone outside the tent was speculating on what method Li Ke used and what words he said to make Ying Chengyu willing to lead his army to mediate the battle, and why the two were in a stalemate for more than a day.
However, the truth is far less bizarre.
Li Ke: Your Majesty! I know very well the state of Yan's treasury, as well as the real estate of the two counties in western and eastern Liaoning. After asking Qin for peace with grain and cloth, the strength of the Yan state has been exhausted. I thought that I could make Yan offer 300 catties of gold and 5 million shi of millet. Pay it back in three years, five hundred thousand pieces of cloth in two years, and ten thousand horses in two years, in order to ask your Majesty to mediate and stop this war!
Ying Chengxuan: This reward is very heavy. I was afraid that Yan would not be able to bear it, and I was also afraid that Dai would take advantage of Yan's fatigue to attack Yan again. It is said that Gaoyi (not the Goguryeo regime established by Jumong, but a bear-worshipping totem including the ancient Goguryeo tribe) Composite nation.) The local ginseng has the charm of Codonopsis ginseng, which can be used to offset the gold cloth.
Li Ke: Your Majesty is benevolent and righteous! I should admonish the King of Yan to drive Gaoyi to the east and seize all the ginseng from Gaoyi to offer to the Qin Dynasty!
Ying Chengyu: There’s no need to go overboard.
Li Ke: Your Majesty Wanwang puts the interests of Great Qin first!
Ying Chengqiu: In this case, there will be a sign of labor and Li.
Li Ke: If you don’t give up, you can call a certain son Shi!
Just seven short sentences of reply determined the life and death of the Yan Kingdom!
For the rest of the time, Ying Chengyu and Li Ke didn't talk a single word about the battle.
Ying Chengyu chatted about domestic affairs and got closer to each other, and by the way taught Li Ke how to arrange his troops and resist the Dai army.
Li Ke had been planning for this meeting for a long time, and told him all the key data about the Yan country's customs, terrain and grain production, as well as his thoughts on the governance ideas of the Qin Dynasty when it came to governing Yan.
For a full thirteen hours, the two drank and chatted without stopping. This made Li Ke look haggard and hollowed out when he left the military tent.
After the hexagram master pondered for a moment, he said seriously: "It can be seen from this that it is not that the country of Yan has no talents, but that the king of Yan has no discernment, let alone the ability to help talents to show their talents!"
Ying Chengyu nodded and said: "How can such a large Yan country not have talented people?"
"How can there be no righteous people in a land of generosity and tragedy?"
"It's just that the King of Yan has lost the support of the people, and that's why the state of Yan is in decline!"
Gold will always shine.
There is nothing wrong with this sentence, but it can only be used to talk about gold.
Because there is no upper limit to the life of real gold, you can wait quietly for the day when it shines, but there is an upper limit to human life.
I don’t know how many people live until their longevity is exhausted, but they can’t wait for the day when they can shine!
But is this the talent’s fault?
This is the fault of the system, officials and kings!
Ying Chengyu's feeling of cherishing his talents became stronger and he ordered: "This soup tastes very delicious. Eight husbands, you will personally hold a pot and give it to Li Xiang."
"Five more soldiers will be left to take care of Prime Minister Li. At the beginning of tomorrow, Prime Minister Li will be awakened and persuaded to return to King Yan as soon as possible."
"The credit for this achievement must be firmly grasped by Prime Minister Li!"
The eight masters immediately handed over their hands to accept the order. The eight masters also heard the sound of the strings and knew the elegant meaning, and took Ying Chenglong's armor from the side.
With the soldiers wearing armor, Ying Chengyu strode out of the military tent.
Li Ke had already been carried back to the tent to rest by his own soldiers, but the Yan envoys were still waiting outside the tent eagerly.
Facing the expectant eyes of pairs of eyes, Ying Chengyu took the halberd from the hands of the hexagram master and said in a deep voice: "What I want in my life is for peace in the world, no war, and prosperity for the people!"
"Of course!"
"Dai Guo first coerced the two countries of Yan and Qi to attack our country Qin, and then ignored the cries of the people of Dai, ignored internal affairs, and did not relieve natural disasters. When the King of Qi asked for surrender and the King of Yan sued for peace, he coerced hundreds of thousands of people who could not survive the war. The suffering Qingzhuang launched a surprise attack on the Yan State, which yearned for peace."
"The king's cruelty, cruelty, and bellicose behavior caused more than a million people to suffer from the war, and their families were destroyed!"
"This general can't bear to see it! I can't bear to hear it! I can't tolerate it!"
"Pass this general's order!"
"Make rice tomorrow at 3:00."
"Break camp at sunrise (5:00)."
"The whole army goes north, stop the war and seek peace!"
To seek peace, you can seek peace at the cost of ceding territory and donating grain, grass, and cloth.
It can also be to beat the enemy until he kneels on the ground and begs!
Ying Chengyu issued the order immediately, and the soldiers of the three armies shouted:
"Wei!"
