Chapter 876: Use the Remaining Strength of the Nine Generations to Shake the World! From This Battle, We Will Restore the Glory of Our Great Qi!

Hou Sheng turned his head in disbelief and looked at Mao Sui, his pupils suddenly shrank to the size of a needle tip.

Hou Xun, Sun Ping and more than half of Qi's ministers also turned their heads to look at Mao Sui in astonishment, roaring wildly in their hearts.

How dare he!

How dare he!

More than a hundred years ago, Qi had already intended to unify the world. More than fifty years ago, King Min of Qi officially issued a declaration to replace the Zhou emperor.

But what followed was the attack of the princes of the world. Qi, which was the strongest country in the world, was beaten by the princes of the world until the country was destroyed and the country did not exist!

Although Tian Dan quickly recovered Qi, the fear of national destruction still lingered in Qi's heart, and the vigilance and disgust of the princes of the world towards Qi made Qi tremble with fear.

King Min of Qi's bold words became a taboo in Qi, and no one dared to speak out anymore!

But today, Mao Sui, as a foreign minister, actually shouted this slogan again in Wu Palace!

Hou Sheng hurriedly bowed and shouted: "Your Majesty!"

"My Great Qi no longer has the heart to unify the world!"

"The Queen has made it clear to all countries in the world and the ancestors of Great Qi that my Great Qi will..."

Hou Sheng was very scared!

If the King of Qi dared to say that he had not forgotten, the alliance between Qin and Qi would collapse directly.

After all, the thoughts of Ying Zheng and Ying Chengjiao have been revealed directly and unmistakably. What they want to achieve is definitely not the position of the Western Emperor, but the Son of Heaven!

Qin will never allow Qi to compete with Qin for the position of the Son of Heaven!

Even if Qi successfully forms an alliance with Dai and Yan this time, as long as this battle is over, Dai and Yan will surely attack Qi when the opportunity arises.

Because Dai and Yan will never allow Qi, which still has the ambition to unify, to recuperate and eventually become a big problem!

Qi will surely return to the isolation and helplessness of the past King Min of Qi.

But why can the current Qi be compared with the Qi of the King Min of Qi!

Where can the next Tian Dan come from in the current Qi State to help Qi State restore its country!

However, before Hou Sheng finished speaking, Tian He, Tian Yu and other ministers all bowed their hands and shouted loudly: "Your Majesty!"

"Have you forgotten the great wish of the previous kings of Qi State to unify the world!"

King Jian of Qi stood up slowly on the high platform.

He clenched his fists in his sleeves, raised his neck slightly, and his veins were exposed. King Jian of Qi roared with all his strength:

"I dare not forget it for a moment!!!"

King Jian of Qi's roar hit Hou Sheng's head like a heavy hammer.

Hou Sheng actually staggered back two steps, looking at King Jian of Qi with disappointment.

King Jian of Qi slowly walked towards the stairs, his voice hoarse and solemn: "In the past, our ancestor Duke Huan (Tian Wu, not the same person as Duke Huan Xiaobai of Qi) founded the Jixia Academy, recruited talents from all over the world, and changed the decline of Qi!"

"Our ancestor King Wei valued Zou Ji, Tian Ying, Tian Ji, Sun Bin and other talents, and was called "the strongest among the princes" by the world!"

"Our ancestor King Xuan recruited talents from all over the world such as Mencius, Xunzi, Gaozi, Zou Zi (Zou Yan), Jie Yu, Chunyu Kun, Shen Dao, etc., and defeated Yan and Chu, making the country rich and powerful, and intimidating enemy countries!"

"Our ancestor King Min defeated Qin, swallowed Chu, destroyed Song, invaded the Three Jins in the west, and respected each other as the East Emperor and the West Emperor with King Zhaoxiang of Qin!"

In the eyes of later generations, it is an incredible miracle that none of the six consecutive generations of kings of Qin were incompetent and mediocre.

But is Qi worse than Qin?

Duke Huan of Qi, King Wei of Qi, and King Xuan of Qi took over the throne one after another. It took only three generations for Qi to leap from a weak country with internal and external troubles to the Eastern Emperor of the time.

If we count the ancestors of the Tian family who were not kings of Qi but pushed the Tian family to replace Qi step by step, the Tian family before King Min of Qi had nine consecutive generations of rulers without a single mediocre person!

King Ying Zheng of Qin fought for the remaining strength of the sixth generation to lead Qin to the east.

King Tian Di of Qi fought for the remaining strength of the ninth generation to shake the world!

Although King Min of Qi failed, which member of the royal family of Qi would not be excited about the glory of their ancestors? !

King Jian of Qi walked to the edge of the high platform, his body slightly hunched, and asked sadly: "How will future generations evaluate me?"

"During my reign, I tried to form alliances with other countries, but they all abandoned me. I had no choice but to form an alliance with Qin and serve Qin!"

"Qin has an order, Qi dare not disobey!"

"Later, because Qin has unified the world, I led all the ministers to the west to pay tribute and beg for mercy in order to save our great Qi country?!"

In the hall, all the ministers were speechless.

All the actions of King Jian of Qi during his reign were the most rational decisions.

Judging from the situation when King Jian of Qi ascended the throne, if the king and queen had not worked hard to formulate this national policy, Qi might have ceased to exist long ago!

But when King Jian of Qi condensed what he had done in his life into a few short sentences, great sadness enveloped all the courtiers.

Qi, which was once the Eastern and Western Emperors of Qin, now had to pay tribute to Qin in order to survive?

How did my great Qi become like this!

Hou Sheng closed his eyes in pain, unable to bear to see King Jian of Qi like this.

King Jian of Qi shed tears on his court robes!

His right fist hit his heart again and again, and King Jian of Qi roared sadly from his heart: "The great wish of the previous kings to unify the world."

"I dare not forget it for a moment!"

"I dare not forget it for a moment!"

"But looking back on my life, what have I done!"

Before King Jian of Qi fought back and recalled Kuang Yong, Tian Yu and others, the government of Qi was always controlled by Hou Sheng.

Every word of King Jian of Qi was self-blame, but every word was also blaming Hou Sheng!

Tian He stepped forward and bowed loudly, saying: "In the past, our Great Qi was in internal and external troubles, and what the king did was absolutely not wrong. Even the previous kings would praise the king for his determination to endure hardships."

"Now our Great Qi has gone through many years of cultivation and is no longer the same as before!"

"What the king wishes is what we wish!"

"If the king is humiliated, we are willing to die!"

"Your servant, please fight!"

"Starting from this battle, we will restore the glory of our Great Qi!"

Tian Yu, Kuang Yong and other war advocates stepped forward and bowed loudly: "Your servant please fight!"

"Starting from this battle, we will restore the glory of our Great Qi!"

Although only a small number of court officials came out to ask for a fight, this small number of court officials controlled more than half of the military forces of Qi!

Hou Xun and other court officials had to look at Hou Sheng, waiting for Hou Sheng's decision.

Qi Wangjian also stared at Hou Sheng, waiting for the answer given by this powerful official!

After a dozen breaths, Hou Sheng slowly opened his eyes.

Looking at the sharpness and hatred in Qi Wangjian's eyes, Hou Sheng sighed softly, as if he was recalling, or as if he was confessing: "All my life, I have been practicing the will of the king and queen, protecting my great Qi country at all costs."

"However, the danger of Qi's demise in the past has made me lose my enterprising spirit."

"I never realized that the king had such ambitions, and I didn't know that the king would never want to live in humiliation."

Hou Sheng received a large amount of bribes from Qin, and his words would subconsciously favor Qin, and he would guide Qi to treat Qin affairs more respectfully for more bribes.

But Hou Sheng is different from Guo Kai.

As Qi Wangjian's uncle, Hou Sheng and Qi Wangjian share honor and disgrace. Hou Sheng can't sell out Qi Wangjian and Qi country in exchange for his personal interests like Guo Kai!

Therefore, although the national policy formulated by Hou Sheng for Qi is the most in line with the interests of Qin and Hou Sheng, it is also the national policy with the greatest chance of preserving Qi's country and the most likely to help Qi make a comeback in times of chaos!

Unfortunately, King Jian of Qi does not agree with this national policy.

Standing up straight, Hou Sheng bowed to King Jian of Qi and said solemnly: "Since the king is willing to regain the great wish of the previous kings, he is willing to take a risk on the country."

"As the prime minister of the Great Qi, I am naturally willing to follow the example of Guanzi in the past and help the king realize his great wish!"

"Minister, please fight!"

"Starting from this battle, restore the glory of our Great Qi!"

When King Jian of Qi shouted the slogan of unification, when Tian He, Tian Yu, Kuang Yong and others all supported King Jian of Qi, Hou Sheng had no choice.

Whether it was out of personal interests or national interests, Hou Sheng had to bite the bullet and bet with King Jian of Qi!

Qi Wangjian was surprised: "Is the Prime Minister also willing to support me?"

Hou Sheng looked at Qi Wangjian lovingly and said: "If the king has no ambition to unify the world, I will do my best to preserve the country of Da Qi and help Da Qi recuperate and wait for the right time."

"But since the king deeply remembers the great wishes of the previous kings, how can I go against the king's wishes?"

"The king is the king of Da Qi!"

Qi Wangjian never expected that he would hear such words from Hou Sheng.

Qi Wangjian walked down the steps slowly, and then quickened his pace to walk towards Housheng. He held Housheng's hands tightly with both hands, and his eyes were full of emotion: "Uncle!!!"

"I still remember when I first ascended the throne, my Great Qi was exhausted and the people suffered."

"It was all thanks to my uncle's hard work and all-night work that my Great Qi was able to recuperate for many years and have the national strength to revive the glory of Great Qi."

"It is my luck that I can have my uncle as prime minister!"

Although Qi Wangjian already has the strength to dismiss the prime minister, he will be injured if he collides with Housheng head-on.

Now the turning point of Qi's fate is imminent. Since Housheng has expressed his obedience, Qi Wangjian is unwilling to stab himself before the war.

So even though Qi Wangjian was not very moved in his heart and had no trust in Housheng, he still performed the most moved look!

Hou Sheng held Qi Wang Jian's hand with his backhand, his eyes full of sincerity and emotion: "It is my honor to have the king's trust!"

"In this battle, I will do my best to seize the national strength of our Great Qi and help the king to make the first step of reviving Great Qi more solid!"

"In this way, I will have the face to see my sister before I die!"

An uncle and a nephew, a minister and a king staged a large-scale stage play in Wu Palace, where the monarch and the minister get along well, the uncle and the nephew love each other, the internal stability, and the unity of the upper and lower levels, which attracted All the court officials in the hall bowed and shouted: "We, the ministers, congratulate the king!"

"Congratulations to the great Qi!"

Wipe away his tears, Qi Wang Jian bowed to Mao Sui and said solemnly: "Thanks to Prime Minister Mao's enlightenment, I can finally speak out my heart's desire."

"Prime Minister Mao came here to persuade the great Qi to send troops."

"I think Dai has made a careful plan for this war."

"Can you tell me one by one?"

Mao Sui hurriedly bowed in return: "I really want it, but I dare not ask!"
