General Qin

With Qi Xiang Tianjia's shout.

Outside the main hall, a majestic general came immediately.

Tian Rong had been waiting outside for orders. When he heard the call, he immediately stepped into the hall and walked to Li Shiqi in a few steps.

He was tall and tall, stretched out his big hand, grabbed Li Shiqi's neck, and lifted it straight back like he was catching a chicken.

At this time, Tian Jia's words were still echoing in Li Shiqi's head.

cooked?

cooked!

Although he vaguely guessed something when he saw the big cauldron boiling water outside, but now when he actually faced this matter, he still felt a little bit ridiculous.

Li Shiqi remembered the bold words he had uttered in front of General Zhao earlier.

A man lives in the world, if he cannot eat five tripods in life, he will cook ears with five tripods when he dies!

This is really a prophecy.

wrong.

"This shouldn't be my life, Li Shiqi!"

Li Shiqi roared in his heart.

He should be born to eat, not die to be cooked.

"Hahaha, Xiangbang wants to cook Li Shiqi for me, that's great!"

Li Shiqi didn't resist, let Tian Rong drag him back, and laughed loudly: "It's just that today Xiangbang cooks me, Li Shiqi, and in the future, the princes, generals, ministers and bureaucrats of the Manchu Dynasty will be the top of the tripod." Rotten meat, combined into a pot of soup, I don’t know what it tastes like, I just wish I couldn’t taste it.”

As soon as these words came out, all the ministers of Qi State in the palace changed their countenance.

A few timid Qi Chen were so afraid to speak up, pleading for Li Shiqi.

Tian Jia pursed his lips and did not speak.

On the king's couch, Qi Wangjian shrank into a ball, and there was no blood on his fat face.

Li Shiqi was about to be dragged to the gate of the palace by Tian Rong.

He didn't beg for mercy, but just looked at Qi Xiang Tianjia in the palace with a smile on his face.

I bet you dare not cook me!

...

Tian Jia also bit his lip, his eyes were a little red, staring at Li Shiqi who was being dragged to the tripod by Tian Rong.

He was waiting for the envoy of Qin to beg for mercy.

Only by disarming the envoy of Qin first, can they gain the upper hand in the ensuing conversation.

It's just that Li Shiqi faced the fate of being cooked, but he remained calm and did not change his expression.

He even had that mocking smile on his face, as if he had already seen through Tian Jia's thoughts.

In the hall, the officials of Qi State spoke one after another.

"Xiangbang, Qin envoys can't kill randomly. I heard that Li Sheng is Zhao Tuo's confidant, and now he is here as an envoy. The two countries will fight each other, and the envoy will not be beheaded. If we kill him, Zhao Tuo will definitely not Will let us go!"

"Yes, the envoy of Qin cannot be killed, otherwise there will be no room for relaxation between us and Qin. Maybe the Qin army will take revenge and slaughter the city after breaking through the city!"

"Xiangbang, stop it!"

The officials of Qi State were terrified, and they rushed to speak, for fear that Tian Jia would really cook Li Shiqi.

Even Shangqing Taishiwen and Doctor Jimo, who belonged to the main combat faction, said one after another: "Xiangbang, Qin envoys can't kill without authorization, and should be dealt with safely."

Tian Jia remained silent, just staring at Li Shiqi who was being dragged to the door, not far from the burning cauldron.

Please beg for mercy!

Tian Jia shouted in his heart.

He hoped that Li Shiqi would bow his head.

It's a pity that Li Shiqi didn't speak until he was dragged out of the palace gate, but just laughed there.

At this time, even Qi Wangjian on the couch couldn't sit still.

He shouted: "Xiangbang, bring him back quickly."

lost.

Tian Jia smiled wryly in his heart, and said helplessly, "Tian Rong, please bring Qin envoy back."

"Please bring the Qin envoy back!"

"General Tian Rong!"

Several panicked Qi Chen cried out quickly.

Won.

Hearing the words from the hall, Li Shiqi smiled even wider.

But the next moment, panic flashed in Li Shiqi's eyes.

Because after Qi Xiang and the other Qi officials in the palace spoke, Tian Rong still had no intention of stopping, he held him tightly, and walked straight to the tripod.

Tian Rong seemed to disregard Xiangbang's order and was about to throw Li Shiqi into the cauldron and cook him to death.

"Isn't it true that Li Lao Er said that he met the loyal and righteous soldiers of Qi?"

Li Shiqi was in a hurry. Seeing that his great success was about to be accomplished, he didn't want to die in the hands of such a stupefied young man. It was thanks to him.

The fire is burning, and the boiling water is boiling hot.

Thick hot air gushed out and wet Li Shiqi's back.

He was quick-witted and roared: "Tian Rong, if I die, your descendants, including Dicheng Tian's clan, will be buried with me."

Tian Rong stopped.

He looked back at the Qin envoy in front of him, his eyes seemed to burst into flames.

Li Shiqi was not afraid, just in front of the cauldron, he looked at Tian Rong, his eyes were wider than the other's.

Finally, Tian Rong sighed softly.

He let go of his palm, and apologized to Li Shiqi: "Tian Rong is stupid and rude, please forgive me, sir."

"It's okay, the general's strength is really great, haha."

Li Shiqi laughed, turned around and walked into the hall, wiping the sweat from his forehead as he walked.

This time, his eyes were shining brightly, full of confidence.

He won the psychological confrontation just now.

For the next task, more and more sure.

After a while, Li Shiqi walked into the hall again.

"I once heard that Mr. Li is amazingly courageous, and he can face danger without fear. So I was curious, and I was just playing with each other just now. Mr. Li is really brave, which I admire."

Tian Jia clasped his hands and opened his mouth, looking for a step down for what happened just now.

Li Shiqi pretended to be surprised and said, "It turned out that it was just a show. I thought the king and Xiangbang really wanted to cook me, Li Shiqi, and then wait for my Qin army to break through the city and cook it in the city of Linzi." It's a big pot of meat soup."

As soon as the threatening words came out, everyone in the hall looked unhappy.

On the king's couch, Qi Wangjian laughed dryly and said, "Sir, don't joke anymore, please sit down."

Li Shiqi smiled, walked to the table and sat down, and said: "I was frightened by the big cauldron just now, I'm a little thirsty, I wonder if the king can give a glass of wine for the foreign minister to calm the shock?"

Qi Wangjian smiled awkwardly, and hurriedly said, "Come here, give Mr. Li a drink."

Soon, a waiter entered the hall and brought drinks.

Li Shiqi was not restrained, and raised his glass to drink.

"Happy, the wine given by the king is delicious."

Li Shiqi yelled while drinking, and the wine dripped down his beard, showing a bold and unrestrained attitude.

The faces of the officials in the palace were not very good-looking.

They were all veterans in the political arena, so how could they not know that Li Shiqi's actions were to seize the initiative and gain the upper hand.

In the psychological warfare confrontation just now, they lost completely and lost their energy.

After Li Shiqi put down his wine glass, Qi Xiangtian said with a cold face: "Mr. has drunk the wine, so I should report my mission to my king this time. The two countries are fighting, I don't know why Mr. came here." ?”

All the officials in the palace looked over, and many of them looked at Li Shiqi expectantly.

Li Shiqi chuckled, and said: "It's still the same sentence just now, I'm here to save the king, Xiangbang, and the ministers and hundreds of thousands of Qi people in Linzi!"

"ridiculous!"

Only one person snorted coldly, and reprimanded: "I thought you, Li Sheng, as an envoy of the Qin State, came to Linzi, and faced my Qi State monarch and ministers, you must have high opinions. I didn't expect that you would say such a thing." Ridiculous words!"

As soon as these words came out, the atmosphere in the palace hall became tense again.

An invisible war has begun.

The corner of Tian Jia's mouth curled up slightly. Just now, he wanted to give Li Shiqi a blow, but he failed miserably. Instead, Li Shiqi gained the upper hand, which is not good for the next negotiation.

Now it's good for someone to stand up against him and Li Shiqi. If they can find a place in the verbal dispute and suppress Li Shiqi's limelight, it will be beneficial to their negotiations.

Li Shiqi looked for his reputation and saw that the speaker was a tall man with a long face and short beard. Judging by his attire, he was at least a doctor, so he asked with a smile, "May I ask your name?"

The man snorted and said proudly: "I am Tian Lang, the doctor of Jimo."

Li Shiqi smiled and said: "I just remembered, it turned out that I was the doctor Jimo who commanded 5,000 soldiers to help Linzi, and after being intercepted by our Qin army, he resolutely abandoned the army and fled. I really admire the name of a doctor." I look forward to it for a long time."

"Three thousand soldiers under the doctor's command are working in our barracks, carrying stone and wood. They really miss the doctor very much."
