In fact, these dinners are often contests between people, even hidden dangers. Dining tables can also change history, and chopsticks can also change history books. In the history of China, at least several famous dinners have changed the historical wheel that was originally going to sail in another direction. Bian Xiao will tell you about today's Mianchi meeting.
Everyone must be familiar with this meeting in Mianchi. After Qin and Zhao fought, Zhao lost some cities. However, after Qin attacked Zhao, attention turned to Chu. We don't want trouble in the north when dealing with Chu in the south. So the king of Qin specially made an appointment with the prince of Zhao (Zhao Haoqi Huiwen), and the king of Qin said to the prince of Zhao:
Let our two countries become friends! Then have a meeting, chat, talk about life, talk about ideals. ?
Later, he settled in Mianchi. The king of Qin didn't hold back at that time, and he was full of something. He wanted to humiliate Zhao Wang on the spot. But he didn't know what to say, so he set up a set to let the prince of Zhao go in by himself. This Wang Zhao is actually a kind person. In the present words, his IQ is not online.
At dinner, the king of Qin said:
I heard that you like drums and harps. I have a harp here, please play a song for fun! ?
The prince of Zhao knew the huahuachangzi of the king of Qin and thought it was rice! State banquet! Then come for a while! Later, Zhao Wang sang a song, which was more entertaining!
The king of Qin's face fell, and (they all brought their own historians) asked the historians to write it down and say:
On a certain day, the king of Qin and the king of Zhao held a banquet in Mianchi, and the king of Qin ordered the king of Zhao to play drums. ?
With a stroke of a pen, historians got it done and became a diplomatic event! It was originally a matter for the two brothers to play. He wrote it down in the history books. This is a great insult! At that time, the prince of Zhao had a big face and a thick neck, drooping like an eggplant.
This matter made Lin Xiangru quit, and Lin Xiangru went out with a bang. Took a clay pot and said:
Zhao Wang heard that Qin Wang was good at playing pottery pots. I have a clay pot here. Please knock to make everyone happy. ?
The king of Qin took a glance at the domineering way:
Oh, what's so interesting? There is no way. ?
Hearing this, the Lin Xiangru excited said:
I can't help it I am only five steps away from you. Believe it or not, I spilled blood all over your face.
When the king of Qin saw it, he counted it in his heart, and sure enough, he was less than five steps away. The king of Qin was surprised and thought:
This kid, who hung out with me last year, is a troublemaker. ?
The king of Qin silently picked up a chopstick and gave it a heavy knock. Lin Xiangru later called Zhao's suggestion and wrote it down:
On a certain day of a certain month, the king of Zhao and the king of Qin gave a banquet in Mianchi, and the king of Zhao ordered the king of Qin to knock a hammer to entertain. ?
You think Qin is a country of tigers and wolves! How can the wolf be willing to be around, and the minister next to him will say mercilessly:
Give your fifteen cities to my king. ?
Lin Xiangru also said without weakness:
We don't want much, just give us Xianyang. ?
Xianyang is not bad for them, it is their capital! When the king of Qin saw it, he said with the wave:
Forget it, forget it, eat! Eat! Jiaozi is cold. This is all for fun. Don't take it seriously Come on, the two countries have become good friends and will always be good friends. ?
Lin Xiangru defended the sovereignty and dignity of the country and the face of the prince of Zhao. Of course, it also enabled Zhao to maintain long-term stability and avoid being annexed by Qin prematurely. For example, for Zhao in history, it greatly improved the state of Zhao in history.
Therefore, Bian Xiao thinks that Mianchi Meeting is a very important historical event in the history of Zhao, the relationship between Qin and Zhao and the history of Warring States. Although it is only a dinner party, Zhao's power reflected in it is very great.
