Chapter 717: His brain should not be able to figure it out.
Xu Qing and Xiao Ruxue looked at each other, but in the end they refused to say anything.
Although the former King of Qi was annoying, he was full of energy. Although he suffered repeated defeats and defeats, was short-sighted and had almost no talent, he was indomitable and his fighting spirit never weakened.
How come you have fallen like this in an instant?
Xu Qing and Xiao Ruxue really didn't expect that becoming a proton would have such a big impact on them.
But Xu Qing knew that asking King Qi to be a proton was just a pretense, and there would be no protons at all in the end. Now Zhou Guo's compensation is almost coming, and according to the news from Chu State's spies on the grassland, it is completely
Yan Khan has ordered all the troops to rush to the border area between Chu State and the grassland. This was news a few days ago. At this time, counting the days, they have almost reached the border of Zhou State and declared war at any time.
The Chu State will soon declare war on the grassland, and then the King of Qi will have to be his King of Qi in the capital.
And because he took the initiative to ask Ying to be a hostage, maybe it would make Emperor Chu look at his unfulfilled son with admiration.
But King Qi certainly couldn't tell that this was a conspiracy from the Chu State.
In these days, the King of Qi dismissed the ministers who supported him and spent money unscrupulously.
It’s hard to imagine how King Qi would feel if he squandered everything he could in the past two days and found out that Chu State had declared war on the grassland when he was about to leave.
But at this time, no one could tell His Highness King Qi that this was an outright conspiracy.
Because both Xu Qing and Emperor Chu were worried that telling King Qi about this matter would be equivalent to telling everyone in the capital.
In this case, it's better to let him spend these two days, at least it won't let the grassland mission get any clues.
Sacrifice the wealth and retainers of Prince Qi's palace in exchange for a good opportunity for Chu to send troops.
It was a good deal for Chu State.
King Qi held a wine bottle in one hand and led Xu Qing into the restaurant lobby with the other. What surprised Xu Qing was that a prince like King Qi didn't even go to the private room and started drinking directly in the lobby.
There are still unfinished drinks and dishes on the table in the middle of the lobby.
King Qi, who had pulled Xu Qing in, walked to the table in the middle of the hall and sat down. He waved the wine bottle in his hand and said drunkenly: "I will pay for all the expenses in the restaurant today!"
After that, King Qi ignored the cheers in the restaurant, placed two glasses opposite and filled them with wine.
Then King Qi poured himself a cup, raised the cup and said, "Drink!"
Xu Qing and Xiao Ruxue, who were sitting opposite King Qi, looked at each other. Xu Qing said: "Xue'er, do you think King Qi will poison my wine glass? As long as he poisons me, he will
So there’s no need to be a proton?”
This is entirely possible. He is now an important minister in the court. As long as he is poisoned, King Qi will definitely be arrested. Of course, the prince will not be punished with death. At most, his title will be reduced and he will be banned from the Prince of Qi's palace.
But this way he doesn’t have to go to places like the grassland!
Just think about it and make money, okay?
Xiao Ruxue thought for a while and said, "I don't think King Qi can think of it with his wisdom."
Xu Qing said: "If you're not afraid of ten thousand, just be afraid of what happens."
Just when Xu Qing was questioning, King Qi grabbed Xu Qing's wine glass and poured it in himself, snorting disdainfully: "Is this the kind of prince who likes to stab people in the back?"
Xu Qing turned his head to look at Xiao Ruxue and murmured in a low voice: "Well, with his wisdom, he really can't think of such a method."
King Qi smiled and said: "Xu Qing, I am going to that grassland. You no longer have to worry about me doing anything bad to you, hahaha."
Xu Qing didn't know how to respond to him at this time, but Xu Qing really never felt that King Qi's wisdom could really be detrimental to him from beginning to end.
King Qi continued to drunkenly say: "I know you despise me, but it doesn't matter, you won't be able to see me anymore, have a drink!"
After Xu Qing finally confirmed that the cup and wine were really not poisonous, he finally had a drink with King Qi. Perhaps he couldn't bear that King Qi would sink like this, so he said, "His Royal Highness, King Qi, can't just be depressed. In fact, becoming a proton is not necessarily a problem."
It’s a bad thing, it’s actually possible to do great things by becoming a proton.”
King Qi asked: "For example."
Xu Qing said: "For example, King Zhaoxiang of Qin, King Zhuangxiang of Qin, and the First Emperor of Qin. They all served as prostitutes. You see, later on, didn't they still achieve great things and become the king of a country? The First Emperor even swept the six countries and unified the world."
King Qi clasped his fingers as if to calculate something, and asked: "What about the one who died as a proton?"
Xu Qing waved his hand and said: "His Royal Highness, you should put your hand down, your fingers are not enough."
King Qi looked at Xu Qing: "What about you?"
The corner of Xu Qing's mouth twitched: "It's not enough even if you add me."
King Qi: "I, the King, should take advantage of the opportunity to have more food and wine while I am still in Chu State."
Xu Qing: "Your Highness, Prince Qi, don't be so unsure of yourself."
King Qi looked at Xu Qing and said, "Why don't you be the hostage for me?"
Xu Qing immediately raised his head and looked at the tavern manager: "Shopkeeper, here are two more hot dishes. Your Highness would like to eat more wine and food from Chu before going to the grassland."
Just when Xu Qing and King Qi had two glasses of wine and were able to settle their old feud, a beautiful figure walked in from outside and walked to King Qi's table.
But when this beautiful figure noticed Xu Qing opposite King Qi, she was obviously stunned, with a slightly embarrassed look on her face.
The whole person is Princess Gao Ning, the biological sister of King Qi.
She was dressed quite coolly at first, and Xu Qing still remembers Princess Gao Ning's dress. Even for the relatively open-minded Chu country, it can be said to be bold.
Princess Gao Ning is an out-and-out plump beauty. She is fat where she should be fat and thin where she should be thin. The whole thing gives people a mature feeling.
But it is a pity that meeting a husband who cannot get up in the morning, noon and night can be regarded as the tragedy of Princess Gao Ning.
This is no different from marrying a eunuch who has all the parts...
Meeting such a princess who took the initiative to embrace her, Xu Qing stood up and held her hands in embarrassment and said: "I have met the princess."
Princess Gao Ning's eyes flickered slightly, and her expression was quite unnatural as she said: "I didn't expect that the Marquis of Anding County was here too."
Xiao Ruxue on the side looked at Princess Gao Ning and said, "Why is the emperor's sister here?"
Princess Gao Ning said: "The emperor's brother has been indulgent in drinking and debauchery these days. Father is afraid that the emperor's brother will be injured if he continues like this, so he asked me to give him some advice."
King Qi drunkenly said: "Sister Huang, don't stop me. In a few days, I won't be able to see the fine wines and beauties of the Central Plains. If I don't indulge in indulgence at this time, why should I indulge in it?"
