The Glorious Summoner



689 Two peaches killing three warriors

“Minister Yan, the king has specially set up a banquet in the palace today to welcome the return of the Minister’s envoy.”

As soon as Xia ping ‘an opened his eyes, he saw a eunuch leading the way with small steps beside him. They were talking to each other as they walked through the corridor, which was surrounded by palace guards. In front of them, a Palace had already appeared in front of him.

He became Yan Zi again!

Xia ping ‘an was already very familiar with the Qi Kingdom’s Imperial Palace. He knew that the person waiting for him in the palace in front of him was Duke Jing of Qi.

“Who’s attending today’s banquet?” Xia Pingan asked as they walked.

Minister Yan, the king has invited all the important officials to the banquet today. All the influential people in Linzi are here. The great Minister, the great Minister, the great Minister, the great Minister, the great Minister, and the great reproachman are all here. There are also Gong Sun Jie, Tian Kaijiang, and Gu Yezi, His Majesty’s three trusted aides, Lao Ai.

Oh, I know, Yingluo, ” Xia Pingan replied calmly.

Two peaches killed three soldiers. Was it really because these three people had disrespected master Yan that master Yan had the intention to kill them? If it wasn’t for Duke Jing of Qi’s silent consent to get rid of these three people, how could Duke Jing of Qi lose his mind and want to kill these three people just because of a few words from master Yan?

Duke Jing of Qi seemed harmless, but from the moment he ascended the throne, he had killed cui Xu, then established Qing Feng, and now he had killed Gongsun Jie, Tian Kaijiang, and Gu Zhizi. After killing them step by step, the power of the state of Qi was gradually and completely concentrated in the hands of Duke Jing of Qi. It was impossible to say that all of this was a coincidence.

Gongsun Jie, Tian Kaijiang, and Gu Yezi were all deeply rooted big clans and groups of scholars in Qi state. Tian Kaijiang was from the Tian clan. This was Duke Jing of Qi’s suppression of the powerful big clans and the power of scholars in Qi state. Even so, after Duke Jing of Qi, the Tian clan still seized control of Qi state. It could only be said that these stubborn clans and the power of scholars and officials in Qi state were already showing signs of a threat to the Jiang clan’s regime. Duke Jing of Qi had already seen the signs of this, so he had used master Yan’s plan to get rid of Gongsun Jie, Tian Kaijiang, and Gu Yezi.

only a few thousand-year-old foxes can enter the most prosperous Palace in the world, ” Xia Pingan muttered to himself as he looked at the tall Palace beside him.

As Xia ping ‘an walked to the gate of the palace, an eunuch standing at the gate of the palace shouted at the top of his voice,”Minister Yan has arrived at Xuanji.”

As the voice rang out, Xia ping ‘an crossed the threshold of the palace and entered the palace.

As expected, many people had already gathered in the hall. The seat of Duke Jing of Qi was still empty, and he had not arrived yet. Tables were placed on both sides of the hall, and the Qi state’s dignitaries who were attending the banquet were sitting behind those tables.

Master Yan wasn’t late, so the dishes hadn’t been served yet. The people who had come to the banquet were only chatting in low voices.

Master Yan was currently the Minister of Qi and had just made a contribution to the Chu country. When he saw Xia ping ‘an walking in, those who had already come to the banquet and sat behind the tables hurriedly stood up. They didn’t dare to be arrogant and greeted Xia ping’ an one after another. Almost no one was seated.

“Greetings Minister Yan Qianqian.”

“Prime Minister Yan is on a diplomatic mission to Chu country, his hard work is of great merit.”

All Xia Pingan saw were smiles and greetings. Everyone’s attitude towards him was very respectful.

Xia Pingan also walked quickly and nodded in response.

Almost everyone stood up, except for three people.

They were three burly men who looked strong and powerful. They sat in the middle of the hall. When Xia ping ‘an passed by them, they were still sitting behind the table, chatting and laughing with each other. They only glanced at Xia ping’ an and did not even have the intention to stand up.

Xia ping ‘an didn’t say anything. She walked past the three people and sat down at the front table, waiting for Duke Jing of Qi to come.

After a short while, everyone in the hall stood up when they heard the announcement, ” the King has arrived. with a smile on his face, Duke Jing of Qi walked to the throne in the hall with calm steps.

“Greetings, my King!” Everyone in the hall saluted Duke Jing of Qi.

all my beloved ministers, please dispense with the formalities. Today’s banquet is set for Prime Minister Yan. Prime Minister Yan has gone to Chu country and has worked hard. I suggest that everyone give a toast to Prime Minister Yan. How about it? ” Duke Jing looked at Xia Pingan and said. As Duke Jing raised his glass, everyone in the hall also raised their glasses and the banquet officially began.

The process of the banquet was needless to say. In addition to the food and wine, there were performances brought by the palace musicians and dancers, which was both lively and luxurious.

After the banquet, everyone left. Duke Jing of Qi asked his personal attendant to call Xia ping ‘an to the study room behind the main hall for a chat and to inquire about the process of the diplomatic mission to Chu State.

Xia ping ‘an told him about the diplomatic mission to Chu country, and then changed the topic, ” Your Majesty, do you know that I entered the palace today? everyone stood up to welcome me, but there were three people sitting behind the table, not moving? ”

Duke Jing of Qi looked at Xia ping ‘an and raised his eyebrows. Minister Yan, are you talking about Gongsun Jie, Tian Kaijiang, and Gu Yezi? ”

Xia Pingan nodded and sighed. I am now the Prime Minister of Qi state, and my position is above all the ministers and officials. I represent Qi state and the king to deliver Chu. The hundreds of officials and ministers present bow to me, but they are actually in awe of the king and the majesty and order of Qi state. However, Gongsun Jie, Tian Kaijiang, and Gu Yezi were rude to me today. It can be imagined how arrogant and arrogant these three people are. If they are like this now, in the future, when these three hold great power, they will become one. Your Majesty, aren’t you afraid that the three of them will treat you the same way they treat me?”

As soon as he heard Xia ping ‘an’s words, Qi Jinggong’s face darkened immediately. He did not look too good.

Xia ping ‘an continued, ” I heard that the Emperor of the sacred dynasty raised brave men. They must be righteous to their superiors and have a good relationship with their subordinates. They can prevent riots internally and deter the enemy externally. The country would benefit from their contributions, and the people would respect them for their courage. Therefore, the country would raise their status and increase their salary. The three people raised by the Emperor were not righteous to their superiors, and they did not care about their seniority. We can’t stop riots internally and we can’t intimidate the enemy externally. If your Majesty continues to let these three people go, they may endanger the country in the future. It’s better to get rid of them as soon as possible.”

Qi Jinggong looked troubled. these three people are very brave. It will not be easy to take them down. I don’t think it will work if we send assassins. Minister Yan, do you have any good ideas? ”

judging from the actions of these three people today, I know that although they are brave and consider themselves as scholars, they don’t care about the etiquette of the elder and the young. To kill them, two peaches will do!

“Two peaches?” Duke Jing of Qi looked at Xia ping ‘an in surprise.

yes, two peaches. Your Majesty will invite the three of them to the palace tomorrow and reward them with two peaches. Let them eat these two peaches according to their contributions!

Qi Jinggong was still skeptical, but he still nodded.

The next day, as master Yan had said, Duke Jing of Qi invited the three of them into the palace. After watching them practice their martial arts and swordsmanship in the garden, he asked someone to bring two bright red peaches.

At this time, Xia Pingan was also by Qi Jinggong’s side, watching the three of them.

“My three beloved ministers have followed me for many years and have worked hard with great merits. Today, I have brought a few tribute peaches. They are sweet and delicious. I have two more peaches here. My three beloved ministers can split them. How do you think these peaches should be split?”

The three of them looked at each other. Gongsun Jie burst into laughter and took the responsibility. He took a step forward and said proudly, ” Your Majesty is testing our contributions. If we don’t accept the peaches, it means that we are not brave enough. However, there are three of us, but only two peaches. In this case, we can only eat the peaches according to the amount of contributions we have made. Let me say it first. I, Gongsun Jie, have hunted with Your Majesty. I once killed wild beasts and tigers with my bare hands. For someone like me, Gongsun Jie, who has made such a contribution and is so brave, I can Eat a Peach by myself.”

After Gongsun Jie finished speaking, he walked over and directly took a peach from the maidservant’s plate. He ate the peach in two bites.

Tian Kaijiang then stood up and said in a rough voice, ” “Once, on the battlefield, I fought valiantly and made my enemies fear me. I defeated my enemies” attacks several times. For someone like me, Tian Kaijiang, who has made such a great contribution, I can also Eat a Peach by myself.” After Tian Kaijiang finished speaking, he also picked up a peach and ate it.

Gu Yezi, who was the last one with a resolute look, took a step forward and glanced at the two people who were eating the peaches in front of him. He then questioned loudly, ” what kind of brave and heroic contribution is this? can your brave and heroic contribution be compared to mine? Gongsun Jie, you only killed wild beasts and fierce Tigers when hunting for His Majesty. Do you know that I once crossed the Yellow River with His Majesty? the big kun in the Yellow River bit the horse pulling the carriage on His Majesty’s left and dived into the submerged reefs and torrents, which shocked His Majesty greatly. I was still young and didn’t know how to swim, so I carried a sharp knife and a stone, dived into the water and walked. I went against the water for a hundred steps, and then went along the flow for nine miles to catch and kill da Qian for His Majesty. Then, I held the ponytail in my left hand and held the big kun’s head in my right hand. I jumped out of the water like a White Crane. The boatman at the ferry thought it was the river god who flew out of the water. Tian Kaijiang, can you make people think you’re the river god?”

Gongsun Jie and Tian Kaijiang, who had taken the peaches earlier, looked at each other, both ashamed.

Gongsun Jie said loudly, ” we are not as courageous as you, nor are our contributions as good as you, but we picked up the peach before you and did not give in at all. This is greed. I should not have eaten that peach. I will give it back to you the way I ate it. I will return it to you now!

After Gong Sun Jie finished speaking, he gritted his teeth and pulled out the long sword in his hand. He stabbed the sword into his stomach and pulled it open. He tore his own intestines apart and fell to the ground.

Tian Kaijiang also sighed. I’m indeed not qualified to eat that peach. My head is useless! After he finished speaking, he pulled out his sword and cut his own throat and half of his neck. Then, he also fell to the ground.

Gu Yezi was still a little angry just now, but in the blink of an eye, he saw Gongsun jietian and Tian Kaijiang commit suicide and fall in front of him. Gu Yezi was also stunned. He glanced at the expressionless Duke Jing of Qi and seemed to understand something. He looked up to the sky and sighed. the two of them are dead. Only I, Gu Yezi, am alive. The three of us used to be friends. It is unkind of me to be alive now. To use words to humiliate others and flatter oneself was injustice. I regret my words and deeds. If I don’t even have the courage to die, then I’m a coward. I still have this bit of courage, ” Gu Yezi said. He looked at the two corpses on the ground and laughed bitterly. He muttered to himself, ” although the two of them died for a peach, in fact, my contribution and bravery should have been able to enjoy the peach alone!

After he finished speaking, Gu Yezi also drew his sword and committed suicide.

In the blink of an eye, three warriors of Qi state had died in front of Xia ping ‘an and Duke Jing of Qi.

Xia Pingan sighed. If it weren’t for the need to fuse with the realm Pearl, he wouldn’t want to see Gongsun Jie, Tian Kaijiang, and Gu Yezi die like this even if they were in the realm Pearl. All three of them had the integrity and integrity of a scholar. It was because they were scholars that they could be killed with two peaches. If they were scoundrels, even two cartloads of peaches wouldn’t be able to kill a single one of them, let alone two peaches.

It was lamentable and respectable!

“Your Majesty, please give these three a proper burial!” Xia ping ‘an said to Qi Jinggong.

Looking at the three men on the ground, Duke Jing of Qi nodded.

The world of the realm Pearl shattered.

……

In the secret cultivation room, Xia ping ‘an opened his eyes.

The upper limit of his divine power was increased by 15 points, making it 10086 points. At the same time, Xia Pingan’s Secret mandala had a new spell that could be cast using peaches as a medium. Once this spell was cast, it could summon the three warriors, Gongsun Jie, Tian Kaijiang, and Gu Yezi, at the same time.

There was still one realm Pearl left. Xia Pingan took out the realm Pearl and saw two small symbols on it-Xiao shun.

Looking at the realm Pearl, Xia Pingan’s expression became more respectful!
