"Xun Kuang, follow me." After Li Xiang left the tavern, he looked up at the sky and said to Xun Kuang, who was following behind him.
Xun Kuang had always admired Li Xiang, but he didn't dare to say it out loud. He was afraid that he would be criticized like Che Ying. Hearing that Li Xiang didn't chase him away, he was naturally very surprised. He followed Li Xiang's footsteps, not caring where he was going.
King Qi threw out a bamboo scroll from his palace, growing increasingly anxious.
"Bastard, why haven't we found it yet? Could it be that he has already left Qi Country?" King Qi angrily asked Zou Ji. "Ruler, there's a white-robed scholar outside requesting an audience with a scholarly youth following behind him.”A waiter rushed in and reported. "Please come in!" King Qi and Zou Ji looked at each other and happily said.
"I couldn't find it after spending so much effort. I didn't expect that I would find it myself.”King Qi gulped down a mouthful of wine and calmed himself down as he waited for Li Xiang to enter the hall. "Then this subject will not disturb Ruler. This subject will take his leave.”When Zou Ji heard that Li Xiang had taken the initiative to come, he immediately felt a sense of crisis and hurriedly left.
With King Qi's attitude, if Li Xiang really entered Qi, what position would he take? He was afraid that his position as the Prime Minister of Qi would be lost. "Go, go." King Qi casually waved his hand, causing Zou Ji to feel even more fear and hurriedly leave. Zou Ji left and Li Xiang strode in. Xun Kuang looked around from behind Li Xiang. He never expected that Li Xiang would send him to the Qi Palace and meet King Wei of Qi!
"Hahaha, I finally see you again. I wonder why you returned after leaving Jixia Learning Palace?”King Qi laughed loudly as he stood up to welcome Li Xiang. At the same time, he asked the question in his heart.
Li Xiang and Xun Kuang were invited to their seats by King Qi. Originally, Xun Kuang was not qualified to take a seat, but since Li Xiang had brought him here, King Qi could not chase him away. He had Xun Kuang sit to the side and serve him wine and fruits.
"I heard that King Qi has decreed that anyone who can point out King Qi's mistakes will be rewarded. Those who wrote a letter to remonstrate were rewarded. Those who talked behind the back and reached the ears of the king of Qi were rewarded.”Li Xiang looked at King Qi after taking his seat and went straight to the point.
"Yes, I did give this order.”King Qi nodded, a strange expression on his face. "Alright, I'm here today to receive this reward.”Li Xiang said bluntly with a smile. "Oh? Please tell me, sir. I'd like to hear my mistakes.”King Qi raised an eyebrow.
King Qi didn't say it explicitly. In truth, it had been a long time since anyone in the Qi court had remonstrated. How many problems could a king have? With a reward, each person could say a few words. Of course, no one was perfect, and King Qi was only trying his best to change or hide it. Some of the people who had been rewarded would spout nonsense, and King Wei was naturally not to be trifled with. He would directly be punished and expelled from the court, never to be hired again.
"Since King Qi represents the Qi Kingdom, can I be rewarded for speaking about the illness of the Qi Kingdom?”"A great reward! If you tell me about Qi's illness and get a special reward, you can take the gold, silver and treasures in my palace!”When King Qi heard that Li Xiang wasn't pointing out his problems, but the troubles of Qi, he was overjoyed and slapped the table. In fact, King Qi had a slight doubt in his heart. Normally, a great talent like Bai Shun should have a noble character. Why would he come to the Qi Palace to find him, just for money?
"Not only Qi, but there is also the most important and fatal contradiction between the various countries, and that is the discord between the generals and generals!”
Li Xiang's first words caused King Qi's heart to tremble, and he took a deep breath.
"Take the Wei Kingdom as an example. If the general of the Wei Kingdom, Pang Juan, and the Prime Minister, Gongshucuo, had the same opinion, then how could the Qin Kingdom still be able to survive and issue that recruitment order?”
"Among the generals and generals of Qi State, Zou Ji and Tian Ji are all on good terms.”King Qi took a deep breath and solemnly said. "King Qi truly lies without blushing.”Li Xiang shook his head with a smile. If he didn't know that Zou Ji would force Tian Ji to leave in the future, and Tian Ji would force Zou Ji to pretend to be crazy, the two of them would have a lifelong grudge. Perhaps, he would have believed it.
King Qi was speechless. Sweating profusely, he took a swig of his wine and asked,"Teacher, teach me. What do you mean?" "No solution." "Why is there no solution?" "This is the human heart. The human heart is unpredictable, so there is no solution. However, King Qi need not worry. Although there was a small problem with the discord between the generals and generals, there would not be any major problems overall. The Wei Kingdom was still a dominant force, wasn't it? Seeing King Qi's anxious expression, Li Xiang consoled him. "But if the generals and generals unite, the entire country will definitely be united and the national strength will increase greatly!”King Qi said bitterly.
King Qi had originally thought that the discord between the generals and ministers would make it easier for him to balance their power, but now that he thought of the relationship between Zou Ji and Tian Ji, he felt a headache coming on. Wine poured down his throat one cup after another. Seeing King Qi like this, Li Xiang threw out another trump card. The first one was to make King Qi grieve, and the next one was to make King Qi Yue suffer. This way, his final goal would definitely be achieved.
"King Qi, I have a peerless genius that I would like to recommend to the Qi Kingdom. If the Qi Kingdom obtains this person, they will definitely surpass the Wei Kingdom and become the true overlord…"!”King Qi was already a little drunk, and his heart was filled with sorrow. Hearing Li Xiang's words, he hurriedly pulled Bai Shun's sleeve and asked. Li Xiang looked at Xun Kuang, who was dumbfounded, and spat out two words,"Sun Bin!”
