On the eighth day of the 10th year of Weihou, the border area of ​​Qi and Lu.

The Qi army had been stationed here for more than three days, but the king still had no idea to enter Lu directly, so the Qi army could only continue to wait here.

It is normal for the lower-level military officers and soldiers to be confused, but the generals who followed Tian Yuwen did not know the king's plan.

I had questions in my heart, but as a minister, I could not directly ask the monarch, so these Qi generals could only hold back their doubts.

At this time, the king Tian Yuwen stood on the high slope, staring at the field in the distance, dazed and dazed.

Standing next to him was Tian Yuwen's close minister Zhang Hao, who was specifically interested in inquiring and conveying information for him.

"I left Linzi, those people didn't make any small moves, right?" Tian Yuwen asked calmly.

Zhang Hao replied respectfully: "Report to you, everything is normal, and there are no suspicious actions from all major families!"

Although Tian Yuwen has reconciled with the aristocratic clan and has also made the legitimate daughter of the Zhuge family become the wife of the Jun, he still cannot fully trust him with the aristocratic clan.

Then, Tian Yuwen asked again: "I heard that Wei Wuji has also arrived at the front line, where is he now?"

Zhang Hao was well prepared for his work, so he listened to him: "According to the Pegasus News, the Marquis of Wei is currently stationed in Suizhou, Longjiang County!"

Tian Yuwen and Wei Wuji met more than ten years ago. When they think of these things, Tian Yuwen had to sigh that time flies.

To be honest, when facing Wei Wuji head-on, Tian Yuwen still felt that he was not confident, not only because of the power of Wei, but also because of Wei Wuji.

"Okay, you go down and you have to pay close attention to the military remarks!" Tian Yuwen said to Zhang Hao.

Tian Yuwen certainly knew the confusion of the generals and officials in the army, but he was not good at explaining to the generals and officials.

The reason why he kept his troops was not ready for war was because Tian Yuwen himself was not ready for war, and it was difficult for him to gather courage in the face of the Wei army.

What's more, such a large scale of the war also requires careful consideration of Tian Yuwen. How should we fight? Or how can we not fight?

"I'm not ready for peace... but I don't know if it's feasible? Our Qi State is not ready yet!" Tian Yuwen said slowly.

When they thought of peace talks, Tian Yuwen remembered the Qin State a few years ago. When the Wei army attacked, they also made peace talks, but in the end, Qin State was still crippled by Wei State.

Therefore, Tian Yuwen was very hesitant about his thoughts, and he didn't know whether his decision was useful.

Moreover, may Wei agree to peace talks? This is also very important, and Tian Yuwen is also not confident about it.

Wei Wuji took the six years of rest and recuperation to attack Wei. Will they give up? What does Qi give up?

However, Tian Yuwen couldn't find anyone to discuss these issues. His confidant ministers were either lacking ability or were now helping him keep an eye on the national affairs in Linzi.

He still has to think about this matter!

But as long as those who know Tian Yuwen will know that the so-called thinking of the king is just to give himself time to accept it.

…………

On April 11, on the fourth day after Wei Wuji arrived in Longjiang, he was inspecting an official warehouse in Suizhou, the county town, accompanied by Zhou Bin, the governor of Longjiang County.

After coming to Longjiang from Wu'an, Wei Wuji still had to deal with a lot of official duties every day, so this kind of inspection behavior is still relatively rare.

A group of officials surrounded the surroundings, following Wei Wuji, ready to listen to the instructions at any time.

Wei Wuji was already thirty-one years old at this time, and he looked much more mature, and his two beards set off his majesty.

Pointing at the mountain of food, Wei Wuji turned around and said to the officials: "Food is the most important thing for people, especially for war. Food and grass are very important. You should ensure that everything is safe!"

All the ministers replied with their hands down: "I will obey the order!"

Then, Wei Wuji said again: "Where is the county magistrate?"

At this time, a military officer in armor took a step from the crowd and said, "I'm here!"

"There is a lot of food and grass in Suizhou City, so I will hand over the important task of guarding you. Don't let me down!" Wei Wuji said slowly.

The Longjiang County Magistrate immediately knelt down and said, "I must be fooled by the truth to repay the emperor's high hopes!"

Wei Wuji nodded, then asked the man to get up, and then a group of people continued to walk forward.

And these officials in Longjiang County had to continue to hunch their waists and listen to the instructions. In fact, this posture was quite tiring.

They were far away in Longjiang and did not have the chance to attend the court meeting. These people now know the feeling of the central officials attending court.

After inspecting this place, the only county magistrate Zhou Bin was the last one to accompany Wei Wuji.

Following Wei Wuji with Zheng Dali, Zhou Bin was under great pressure at this time, and the aura of the king made him feel this way.

Just following behind, Wei Wuji suddenly said, "Zhou Qing, how long have you been in Longjiang?"

Zhou Bin held his breath and said in a calm voice: "Report to the emperor, I have been in charge of Longjiang for seven years!"

He became a county magistrate for seven years and was unable to be promoted to the position of Nine Ministers. It is not a strange thing in the officialdom of Wei.

Then Wei Wuji said: "Longjiang is only separated from Qi State by a river. Is the people who govern Longjiang and Qi and Lu the same?"

After hearing the king's teaching, Zhou Bin thought about it and replied: "The county magistrate, although Longjiang and Qilu are only separated by a big river, the customs of the two places are different, and Qilu and the two countries are different!"

Afterwards, Zhou Bin introduced Wei Wuji in detail the differences, and Wei Wuji nodded repeatedly.

He just asked casually, but he didn't expect that Zhou Bin's insights were so profound that he was quite surprised.

After Zhou Bin finished the answer, there was a moment of speechlessness on the scene. The silence of the king made him feel panicked. Could it be that his answer was not careful enough?

Although he was a veteran of the surround and sea for more than 20 years, Zhou Bin was as frightened as when facing Wei Wuji at this time when he met the county magistrates.

After a while, Wei Wuji spoke: "Zhou Qing has a profound understanding, but he is actually a pillar of the country!"

"If I ruled Qilu with you, I wonder if you would dare to take on this great task?" Wei Wuji asked with a smile.

After hearing this, Zhou Bin thought he had heard it wrong, and the king actually asked him to govern Qilu.

You know, when the king asks someone like this, it means he has to be reused, and Zhou Bin cannot believe it.

This is a treatment that only a minister of the king is confident. How can he, Zhou Bin, be favored by the king? Is it because of the remarks just now?

But at this time, Zhou Bin could not think too much, so he saw him bow and answer, "What the emperor wants is, I only obey my order!"

Wei Wuji laughed and liked such a capable and obedient minister, and Zhou Bin was undoubtedly such a person.

In the position of county magistrate, he had such profound insights into the people under his rule and the people of neighboring countries, and in Wei Wuji's opinion, he deserved the title of talent.

Wei Wuji then said, "Qilu has not been taken down yet, so you just agreed?"

Zhou Bin's face turned solemn, and then said, "Your Majesty takes the power of heaven to attack Qi and Lu. How can these two countries stop it?"

At this time, Zhou Bin had a little more in Wei Wuji's mind, that was, he could speak.

Then Wei Wuji started a conversation with Zhou Bin and asked about his political philosophy and experience in governing Longjiang. The monarch and ministers had a great conversation.

At this moment, Zheng Dali came to Wei Wuji and said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, Duke Qi has sent an envoy to Longjiang, saying that he has something important to discuss with you!"

Wei Wuji and Zhou Bin couldn't help but stop talking, while Wei Wuji fell into deep thought.
