When the Ge Xiang Su Dai and Jiang Qu of Yan went to various countries in the Central Plains to lobby, it happened to be the New Year of each country.

Nowadays, the Central Plains countries should not speak words, but the weights and measures are different, even the New Year's Day is different.

This is related to the calendar used by each country. From the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors to the Xia, Shang and Zhou dynasties, there are six types of calendars implemented in the world, namely the Huangdi Calendar, the Zhuanxu Calendar, the Xia Calendar, the Yin Calendar, the Zhou Calendar, and the Lu Calendar.

Each calendar stipulates that the day of the New Year is different, that is, the year's head.

For example, in the Zhuanxu calendar, the first year of the year is the first day of the 10th month; the first year of the Xia calendar is the first day of the first month; the first year of the Yin calendar is the first day of the 12th month; the first year of the Zhou calendar is the first day of the 11th month; the first year of the Lu calendar is the first day of the winter solstice.

The Yan State began to reorganize last year and fully implemented the Liao system.

In order to regulate the twenty-four solar terms, the Xia calendar is used, and the beginning of the year, that is, the New Year festival is the first day of the first lunar month.

The Qin State adopted the Zhuanxu calendar, and the first day of the year was the first day of the October lunar month.

The countries around Lu State adopt the Lu Li, and the day of the year begins is the winter solstice.

So starting from October 1st, people from every country in the Central Plains began to celebrate the New Year one after another according to the days stipulated by their own country. This made Ji Kang, who came to this era, feel quite surprised when he first heard about it!

The Prime Minister Su Dai and Jiang Qu first came to Zhao State and visited Zhao Wangdan and Pingyuan Jun Zhao Sheng.

Facing King Zhao, Su Dai and Jiang Qu, of course, we can't say that our Yan State wants to attack Qi State, so don't send troops.

When the two set out from Yan State, they had already discussed with Prince Ji Kang. This trip was to the Central Plains countries, and they did not require signing alliances, as long as they signed a "friendly agreement" with each other.

Su Dai and Jiang Qu could only say to Zhao Wangdan and Pingyuan Jun Zhao Sheng:

"Yan and Zhao are the country of ancestors and relatives, and they will share honor and disgrace in the future."

He also presented the New Year gifts from Ji Kang and Queen Ji Zhao, who brought Zhao Wangdan and Pingyuan Jun, which were of course of great value.

Ji Kang's uncle Zhao Wangdan and Pingyuan Jun Zhao Sheng were quite satisfied with this.

Without hesitation, they signed a "friendly agreement" with Yan State, and agreed to be invincible and not attack each other.

After dealing with Zhao State, Su Dai and Jiang Qu were divided into two routes in Zhao State.

Su Dai went to Han and Qin; Jiangqu went to Wei and Chu.

Not to mention Jiang Qu, just say that Su Dai came to South Korea and was warmly treated by his old acquaintance Han Wangran.

After Su Dai presented the gifts given to Han Wangran by Prince Ji Kang and Han Fei, Han Wangran was very happy. His younger brother, Prince Fei, seemed to have planned to stay in Yan State for a long time and would not come back to pose a threat to his throne.

Besides, after so many years, no country has treated itself so politely!

So the "friendly agreement" between Yan and South Korea was successfully passed.

Afterwards, Su Dai set out to Qin State to visit King Yingji of Qin and Prime Minister Fan Ju of Qin.

The reason is easy to find, and the one that is ready to be placed there is. It is to discuss the friendship between Qin and Yan according to the agreement with Qin and Yan.

After Su Dai came to Xianyang, Qin State this time, he did not go to Fan Ju's place in private.

If you go again, Fan Ju will definitely guess something, and it will not be worth the loss.

Su Dai directly visited King Yingji of Qin.

King Yingji of Qin heard that Su Dai, a genius, came, was very enthusiastic and held a banquet to entertain Mr. Su Dai.

At the banquet, Mr. Su Dai took out a set of precious gifts given to the King of Qin by King Yan Ji Ming. He immediately attracted all the court officials of Qin State who attended the banquet, including the Qin Prime Minister Fan Ju.

I saw that this set of gifts was made of boxes made of precious wood. They were finely crafted and engraved with patterns and poems on them. When I opened the box, there were four transparent and crystal-clear cups made of "beautiful jade" that everyone had never seen before.

In fact, it is a goblet made of glass.

But people of this era don’t know!

Mr. Su Dai, when he saw the Qin monarch and ministers, heard the four glasses, screamed.

I couldn't help but sway my mouth, and thought to myself that it was indeed as my prince said, a group of "country buns".

Glass is now a controlled product in Liao, and is not sold to the public, but is only used in high-level officials.

King Yingji of Qin looked at these four crystal-like cups and couldn't let go of them.

After the court officials who attended the banquet in Qin State finished their appreciation, they hurriedly asked the attendant to send it back to their harem and treasure it.

Yingji asked Su Dai: "Mr. Su Dai, is it necessary to ask for something for me if the King of Yan brought me such a treasure?"

Su Dai shook his head and smiled at Yingji, "King, my king cherishes the alliance between Yan and Qin, so he comes to Qin to offer this precious thing to the king to show his sincerity. I only wish that the two kings of Yan and Qin will be friendly for generations."

After hearing Su Dai's words, Yingji cursed in his heart: "It's a friendship of the times! My Qin general Meng Ao and Sima Geng, 150,000 Qin troops, are all destroyed by your Yan State. At the critical moment, don't stab the knife too quickly!"

Of course, this is not the time to talk about this problem on this occasion.

Yingji asked Su Dai again: "It is reported that when your prince of Yan Ji Kang was appointed as the prince, he said that the poem "Zhou Gong vomited his food and the world returned to his heart", which shows that his ambition is not small. When will he come to Xianyang and let me see him?"

After hearing what King Yingji of Qin said, Su Dai thought to himself:

"How can my prince come to your tiger and wolf nest in Qin? If you come, it will definitely be a sheep entering the tiger's mouth, and you will never return. Your King Yingji of Qin has a good reputation. King Huai of Chu and Pingyuan Jun are the precedents!"

King Huai of Chu came to Qin to join Yingji and was detained until death by Qin;

Pingyuan Jun Zhao Sheng came to Qin to join Yingji, and was detained by Qin to exchange for Qin Prime Minister Fan Ju's enemy Wei Qi. After Wei Qi was forced to commit suicide, Pingyuan Jun Zhao Sheng was released back to Zhao by Qin.

Su Dai said to King Yingji of Qin: "King, there is no hurry to do this. You will meet our prince sooner or later."

The Prime Minister of Qin Fan Ju was very unhappy with Mr. Su Dai. It was because of this old man that the conflict between him and Wu Anjun was exaggerated and he lost the best time to annex Zhao State!

Fan Ju said to Mr. Su Dai:

"Mr. Su Dai, although our Qin and Yan are allies, our Qin State have a vast territory and a large population, which is recognized as a great country in the world. Yan State is a remote small country in the north. Shouldn't your prince Kang come to Xianyang to see my king?"

Yingji and the court officials of Qin all laughed when they heard Fan Ju's words.

When Mr. Su Dai heard this, Qin Prime Minister Fan Ju humiliated Yan State so much.

He looked stern and said to the ministers at the banquet:

"The king, Fan Xiang, and the prince of our country, went to Liao with a young body. In the past ten years, he has defeated Fuyu in the east, occupied Ji Kingdom in the south, and drove Hu Yi in the north, and opened thousands of miles of territory for our Yan Kingdom. Do you dare to be Fan Xiang, you claim to be extraordinary wisdom, and you may have done this?"

After hearing Su Dai's words, Fan Ju was dumbfounded and didn't know what to answer.

The old man Su Dai closed his hands together, bowed respectfully to the north a few times, and then said to King Yingji of Qin:

"King, Fan Xiang said just now that our Yan State is a remote small country. I would like to ask, our Yan State is now the sea in the east, the Xing'an Mountains in the north, the Taihang in the west, and the Qi and Zhao countries in the south."

"The territory of our Yan Kingdom has tens of thousands of miles east and west, thousands of miles north and south, tens of millions of people, and no less than one million armored men. The soldiers are sharp, the rivers are crisscrossing, the resources are abundant, and the resources are numerous."

"The Dukang in the southern part of our Yan State and the Liao land in the eastern part are both fertile lands in our Yan State. The land is fertile, and the grain produced every year is enough for the ten-year capital of our Yan State army."

"Compared with Qin, Yan State, I think it is not inferior to Qin State. I dare to ask Fan Xiang, where did the distant sayings of Yan State? How did the small country say that Fan Xiang said is really ignorant and not enough to share the same words."

After hearing Su Dai's words, the prime minister of Qin Fan Ju didn't know how to answer and looked ashamed.

He picked up the wine bottle and said to Mr. Su Dai:

"It's Fan Ju just now, Meng Lang. Fan Ju is here to accompany her husband. I'm sorry for drinking this cup first."

After saying that, I drank the wine in one go.

Ying Ji looked at Fan Ju and thought to himself: "The Prime Minister is no longer as wise as he used to be!"

He picked up the wine bottle and said to Mr. Su Dai: "Mr. Su Dai, I, Qin and Yan, are allies. In the future, we should follow the alliance and get along with each other. Please drink this cup."

With this passage spoken by King Yingji of Qin in public, the basic purpose of Su Dai coming to Qin was basically achieved.

The banquet ended in the great victory of Mr. Su Dai.

After Su Dai returned to his room at the hotel, he ordered his followers to pack his luggage.

Take another night in Xianyang and prepare to return to Jidu tomorrow.

Mr. Su Dai was waiting for a break when he heard a voice downstairs shouting:
Chapter completed!
