"Huizi is knowledgeable and rich, and Chuang Tzu is aloof. He is also a famous person. I wonder if the people of the world should be ashamed or honored?”Li Xiang put down his teacup and opened his eyes.
"Li Zi's eloquence is something this old man has learned.”Zhuang Zhou slowly walked over to Li Xiang and sat down. He narrowed his eyes and smiled.
"What's wrong? Does Chuang Tzu really think you have no desires?”He raised his eyebrows and asked.
"This old man doesn't know, please enlighten me.”
Zhuang Zhou's eyes were still narrowed as he sat there without moving.
"Dare I ask Zhuang Zi, do you seek freedom? Seeking freedom? Beg…Dao?"
"Even if you don't ask, you're still asking for 'no desire'. Isn't that the desire of not wanting?”
Bai Shun looked at Zhuang Zhou calmly and asked. Under the collision of their strange auras, Hui Shi and Zhang Yi couldn't move or speak.
"Li Zi is wrong. I am free and unfettered. I am not…"
Zhuang Zhou smiled faintly and was about to explain when he suddenly realized something and opened his eyes.
"Since you've answered, then this is the desire to win and become stronger!”
Li Xiang sipped his tea and said with a smile.
Li Xiang was indeed sophistry before, but as long as Zhuang Zhou accepted this sophistry, then sophistry would become a fact, and Zhuang Zhou would have the desire to win.
As for whether Zhuang Zhou would accept Li Xiang's sophistry, Li Xiang was certain that Zhuang Zhou would.
This was because sophistry was one of Zhuang Zhou and Hui Shi's hobbies. The most famous sophistry was the phrase " If you are not a fish, how can you know the joy of a fish?"
Zhuang Zhou's state of mind was shattered by Li Xiang's words, and the aura he had gathered instantly dissipated.
Zhang Yi and Hui Shi both heaved a sigh of relief. They looked at each other and ran out of the room.
Zhang Yi had just walked out of the room when a silver light flashed. Someone had been hiding on the beam outside the door, looking for an opportunity to assassinate him!
"Huh?"
The young man in a Daoist robe held a sharp sword and was completely imprisoned in the air. Everything around him slowly faded in color and turned into black and white. In this black-and-white world, everything seemed to have stopped flowing.
In the black and white world, other than Li Xiang, the only one who could move was the white pigeon, which was originally black and white. Instead, it was flying like a fish in water.
"Taoism cultivates one's body and cultivates one's nature. All of them seek longevity, but you seek a quick death?”
Li Xiang slowly stood up from his room and took a step out of the door. He looked at the youth in the air who was restrained by him and said.
"This, why does this look so similar to the Heaven and Earth's color loss of my Daoist sect?”
Zhuang Zhou followed him out of the door. He was surprised to see this scene.
However, when Zhuang Zhou saw the face of the person in the sky, he was no longer in the mood to doubt.
"Li Zi, this is this old man's mischievous disciple, Beiming Zi. This time, he came here privately and thought that this old man wanted to become an enemy of Qin, so he offended me.”
Zhuang Zhou had secretly used Myriad Rejuvenation to break Li Xiang's aura, but he had not expected Li Xiang's internal energy to be as vast as the Northern Underworld Sea, unfathomable.
Zhuang Zhou's All Life Rejuvenation was like a drop of spring water falling into a dry desert. It evaporated in an instant.
"Sigh, Li Zi, let go of my old friend's disciple. If you have any problems this time, come at me.”
Hui Shi sighed deeply when she saw this. She walked forward and begged Li Xiang in a low voice,
At the same time, he turned to look at Zhuang Zhou, who was in a dilemma, and said,
"Old friend, don't come and meddle in this anymore. After I finish my state affairs, I will gather with you at the restaurant in the city."
"Why didn't you say so earlier?"
Li Xiang chuckled, and the black and white world around him instantly turned back to color. Beiming Zi also fell from the sky and landed on the ground.
Seeing the black and white world disappear, the white pigeon suddenly felt bored. It flew back to Li Xiang's body and lay on his shoulder without moving.
Actually, Li Xiang had already seen through it earlier. That Daoist youth's attack was not a fatal sword attack. He probably wanted to hold Zhang Yi hostage or make a fool of himself.
Otherwise, would Li Xiang let go of a person who was hostile and wanted to kill Qin, Minister Qin, and even him so easily?
"Minister Qin, Li Zi, Teacher, please forgive me.”
As expected, the Daoist youth named Beiming Zi had just fallen to the ground. He did not care about the pain in his body and hurriedly got up. He bowed to the three of them in pain and apologized.
"Sigh, Ben Yu. I helped you, but I caused you trouble instead. I'm sorry, old friend.”
Zhuang Zhou had never thought that the famous Li Xiang would be so powerful in martial arts. Moreover, he had traces of Taoism, but he was beyond Taoism.
"Li Zi, after the discussion of state affairs, please come to the Sunken Fish Pavilion in Xianyang City. I will personally hold a banquet to apologize.”
Zhuang Zhou seemed to be worried that he would still have thoughts about his disciple Beiming Zi. He turned to Li Xiang and nodded slightly.
After saying that, Zhuang Zhou patted Beiming Zi's shoulder. The two of them took a few steps and disappeared in a few breaths.
After seeing Zhuang Zhou off, Hui Shi let out a long sigh and was invited into the room by Bai Shun to discuss the state affairs.
After Hui Shi returned to his room with a bitter expression and sat down, he was about to speak when Zhang Yi walked up to him and whispered,
"Old Prime Minister, let me remind you that this person's temper is not as good as mine.”
“？Wasn't it Lord Prime Minister who came to discuss with me?”
Hui Shi was stunned when he heard this. He looked at Li Xiang, who was already sitting opposite him, and then at Zhang Yi, who was smiling at him.
"Originally, I didn't want to trouble the Grand Preceptor, but Minister Hui, the manor you brought had to be received by me. Moreover, that sword attack from his disciple scared Zhang Yi out of his mind.”
Zhang Yi made up a story without blushing or jumping.
"Eh? Could it be that it was not appropriate to talk about Hui Xiang as the Grand Preceptor? Then you are wrong. The Grand Preceptor is Qin Jun's teacher. The Grand Preceptor was also the envoy that was about to go to Wei, so it was reasonable to talk about it.”
Zhang Yi saw that Hui Shi was about to speak, so he stopped her with one hand and pressed Hui Shi back to his seat with a smile. Then, he strode out of the room.
Zhang Yi's departure was actually his own decision. Originally, he and Li Xiang were supposed to negotiate with Hui Shi today, but because of the confrontation between Li Xiang and Zhuang Zhou, Zhang Yi's momentum had already dropped.
As the saying goes, if you work hard, you will be exhausted.
Zhang Yi was familiar with the timing, location, and people needed for negotiations. Since his momentum had already fallen, then let Li Xiang, who had just shown his brilliance and had the highest momentum, negotiate. Hui Shi would definitely be at a disadvantage.
Sure enough, after Zhang Yi left, the surrounding attendants were also called away. Hui Shi faced Li Xiang and immediately felt a chill run down her spine, her heart trembling.
"Grand Preceptor, please take a look. This is the alliance agreement for my king to cede fifteen cities.”
Hui Shi saw that Li Xiang did not speak, so she could only grit her teeth and take out the document. Since all the attendants had left, Hui Shi could only walk up personally and hand the bamboo slip to the continuity.
"Don't worry, Zhang Yi has already told me earlier that not only will he be 'magnanimous', he will also let you return with a full load.”Li Xiang opened his eyes and took the bamboo slip. He weighed it twice and threw it aside.
"Please explain, Grand Preceptor." Hui Shi was puzzled and asked with cupped hands.
"Qin country, if we don't sign the unfair treaty, we Qin country will not want the fifteen cities. We will return the Jiao City and Quwo that we occupied for the second time.”
Li Xiang slowly said under Hui Shi's worried gaze.
Hui Shi was not happy when he heard that. Instead, he was even more panicked. He was trying to curry favor for no reason. Anyone with a little intelligence would know what he meant.
"Your country is so generous. What do you want from our Wei Country?”
Hui Shi pondered for a while. He really could not think of anything that could compare to the Fifteen Cities, Quwo, and Jiaocheng, so he could only ask bluntly.
"Ten years ago, I was entrusted by someone to be in the State of Zhao. At that time, that kid Ying Si was a fledgling and wanted to be king. In the end, he was bullied. Tell me, as an elder, what should I do?”
Li Xiang stood up and walked out of his seat. He walked to Hui Shi and sat on the table. He looked at him and asked. Hui Shi was frightened when she saw Li Xiang stand up. Although she heard the content clearly, her mind was in a mess. She did not know what to say, but she had already vaguely guessed what Li Xiang, or rather, what the State of Qin wanted.
"The State of Qin wishes to invite the Prince of Qin to the Dragon Gate. At that time, we would like to invite the State of Wei and Korea, who have been attacking our State of Qin for the past few years, to give us face.”Li Xiang saw that Hui Shi was speechless and continued.
"The Qin country wants to become king? Only these conditions were worth fifteen cities?”
Hui Shi's head was a little dizzy. She shook her head and asked in return.
Because the difference in strength was too great, the request that originally needed to be considered became a charity from the Qin country in the eyes of the Wei country and Hui Shi.
"Of course! However, that child Si 'er was bullied by your King of Wei, so I don't need to bully her back. I just need the King of Wei to give my Si' er some face.”
Li Xiang said slowly in a friendly and negotiating tone, as if he was really an easy-going parent discussing with the other child's parent.
"Then what should I do?”Hui Shi felt that things weren't that simple, so she asked Bai Shun.
"Actually, it's simple. I would like to ask the King of Wei to control the Qin army.”Li Xiang looked at Hui Shi with a smile.
"Isn't this too arrogant and rude?”
"You, Qin Junxiang Wang, want my king to be your king's coachman? Are you looking down on our Wei Country?!"
Hui Shi's eyes immediately widened when he heard this. Anger attacked his heart, and the panic in his heart disappeared. He slammed his palm on the stage and stood up to glare at Li Xiangdao.
"Huizi, don't misunderstand. The Qin country isn't looking down on the Wei country…"
Li Xiang patted Hui Shi, who was standing in front of him angrily, and said,
"When the time comes, the King of Wei will be the coachman and the King of Han will be the one to lead the horse.”
