Gongsun Linglong successfully completed her mission in Zhao State and earned a large amount of money for Qin State. She also signed a series of unequal treaties. From then on, the relationship between Qin and Zhao became that of uncle and nephew.

In fact, at the very beginning, Gongsun Linglong proposed the country of father and son, but was strongly opposed by the monarch and ministers of Zhao State. Later, she used this as a negotiation point and strived for the greatest benefits on other conditions.

What she found ridiculous was that Prince Jia of Zhao actually wanted to add a non-aggression treaty to the agreement, and he was even willing to make concessions in other aspects for this. In this regard, Gongsun Linglong could only say that he was still too naive.

Aren’t agreements meant to be torn up?

In addition to Zhao, Chu, Yan and Qi also took actions.

The Chu State, which was closest to the Qin State, was facing a powerful enemy. King You of Chu immediately summoned civil and military officials to discuss countermeasures. General Xiang Yan, in accordance with the historical trajectory, sent Ji Bu to Mi Qi as a bridge of communication between the two.

In the State of Yan, King Xi of Yan was shocked when he heard the news. When he was preparing to expand his troops to resist the State of Qin, he found that there was very little money left in the treasury. Thinking that he and Yan Chunjun had used this money to buy worthless jade and glass balls, he regretted it and began to resent Yan Chunjun in his heart.

When he summoned his ministers to ask for advice, Yan Chunjun's proposal quite moved him.

Yan Chunjun said that Yan Dan and Ying Zheng had been hostages together in Zhao State and had a deep relationship, so he could be sent to Qin State as a hostage to persuade the King of Qin not to attack Yan.

For the sake of his throne and power, King Xi of Yan sent Yan Dan to Qin without hesitation.

Qi was located far away on the coast of the East China Sea. King Tian Jian of Qi was the least concerned about Qin's attack on the six kingdoms, because Qin was in the west and Qi was in the east. Even if Qin destroyed the six kingdoms, it would take a long time to reach Qi. But after receiving the news that Qin had destroyed Han and Wei within a month, Qi began to panic and sent envoys to contact the other three kingdoms, expressing their willingness to join forces to stop the powerful Qin. Their overall strategy was to let the other three kingdoms take the lead, while they would be responsible for supporting.

......

Right Prime Minister's Mansion.

Mi Qi was meeting Ji Bu who had traveled all the way here overnight.

In addition to Ji Bu, there is also the farmer's hero Tian Guang, and several of his trusted aides.

"Ji Bu from the Shadow Tiger Legion, nice to meet Lord Changping." Although Ji Bu looked exhausted, his handsome appearance could not be concealed.

"No need to be so polite." Mi Qi waved his hand. "General Xiang Yan must also know the urgency of the matter. What did he tell you to come here this time?"

"Now, Qin may attack Chu at any time. Given Qin's strength, Chu will have little chance of winning if it resists head-on. General Xiang Yan hopes that Changping Jun can cooperate with him, control the overall situation, and defeat the Qin army in one fell swoop." Ji Bu said in a deep voice with a solemn expression.

"I am now the right prime minister of Qin. Are you planning to make me betray my country?" Mi Qi's face darkened and he looked at Ji Bu with cold eyes.

"General Xiang Yan once told me that although Changping Jun is in Qin, he has always been concerned about Chu and is a trustworthy person." Ji Bu's face gradually became serious. "General Xiang Yan also said that if we can successfully defeat the Qin army, we can use the situation to help Changping Jun ascend to the throne."

Mi Qi looked at Ji Bu for a long while before saying, "Sit down."

He got straight to the point and said, "Whether the Chu State can survive or not is not determined by a battle. The key to the problem is one person!"

"He is the current Prime Minister of Qin, Su Xuan!"

He looked around at all his confidants present and said, "I can say that he is the key to controlling the world!"

"Whoever gets Su Xuan will get the world! And the remaining six nations will only be destroyed!"

"Isn't what Lord Changping said a little too exaggerated?" Ji Bu frowned slightly.

Mi Qi shook his head. "What he showed was far more terrifying than what I described. Before he showed up, who would have dared to think of destroying two countries in one month? He did something that no one else could do! And this is only part of his talent!"

"I have tried to win him over, but it was useless." Mi Qi's eyes turned cold, "Since we can't win him over, we must find a way to get rid of him, otherwise we will have no chance of winning."

Tian Guang had a complicated expression, with a hint of confusion and pain in his eyes.

Mi Qi had mentioned to him the idea of ​​getting rid of Su Xuan before, but he did not agree with Mi Qi's suggestion at that time, because Su Xuan took out enough potatoes and sweet potatoes to feed tens of millions of people, and he was a man of righteousness.

To him and the farmers, the favor is as heavy as a mountain.

However, he wanted to mobilize the power of the farmers to kill Su Xuan, and even he felt ashamed of his behavior.

Mi Qi spoke eloquently, "I believe you have all received the news. The Qin State has a powerful mechanical beast with amazing destructive power. It is impossible to resist it with human power alone. If we want to deal with it, we must rely on the power of the Mohists."

"It is said that there is a killing machine sealed in the forbidden land of the Mohist school. It is called the Azure Dragon. It has great killing power and is enough to resist an army. If it is put into the battlefield, it should be able to fight against the mechanical beasts of the Qin State."

"Interestingly, after my investigation of Su Xuan, I found that he secretly established a gang called the Azure Dragon Society." Mi Qi said seriously, "So I formulated a plan called the Azure Dragon. The so-called Azure Dragon Plan is an anti-Qin plan, calling on all the righteous people in the world to punish the tyrannical Qin! The first step of the Azure Dragon Plan is to activate the Azure Dragon mechanism and kill the dragon leader Su Xuan!"

"I will look for an opportunity. When he is alone, the elders of the Six Sages' Tomb of the Farmer Family will set up the twenty-four formations of the Earth and Marsh to kill him."

"No matter how strong he is, once he falls into the twenty-four formations of Di Ze, there is no possibility of escape!"

"Will he be so easily fooled?" Ji Bu expressed his inner concerns.

"With his wisdom and caution, he will not fall into the trap easily." Changping Jun had a complicated expression, "So I prepared a bait, a bait that will force him to fall into the trap."

"What is this bait?" Ji Bu asked immediately.

"My daughter, Mi Lian." Mi Qi closed his eyes slightly and then said.

After that, several people discussed the specific details of the plan, the approximate time of implementation, the specific personnel, and the necessary preparations. After everything was confirmed, the secret meeting ended.

When they walked into the hall, Ji Bu happened to see Mi Qi's daughter Mi Lian.

Looking at Mi Lian, who was elegant, graceful, and beautiful with smiling eyes, Ji Bu was attracted to her at just one glance.

Sometimes, some things may be destined.

At just one glance, he fell in love with Mi Lian at first sight.

"Why are you so happy?" Mi Qi asked.

"Because elder brother Su Xuan is about to return triumphantly, and then he will propose to father." Mi Lian's cheeks were flushed, with a smile on her lips and anticipation in her eyes.

Ji Bu's expression darkened. It was just beginning and it was going to end?

No, he shook his head.

After Su Xuan died, didn’t his chance come?
