In the late Spring and Autumn period, both Qi and Chu were great powers.
Once, the king of Qi sent Yan Zi to visit the state of Chu, and the king of Chu wanted to take the opportunity to insult Yan Zi and show the prestige of the state of Chu.
The king of Chu knew that Yan Zi was short in stature, so he closed the city gate and opened a hole five feet high on the side of the city gate. When the king of Chu heard this, he had no choice but to open the city gate to greet Yanzi.
Yan Zi saw the king of Chu, and the king of Chu said contemptuously: "Is there no one in the first Qi country?" How to send you?
Yan Zi said: "We have a lot of people in Qi, but there is a rule in our country, the inferior people go to the inferior countries, and the superior people go to the superior countries, and I don't use them the most, so I sent them here." King Chu smiled awkwardly.
Just as they were eating happily, two warriors from the state of Chu pressed the prisoner to walk under the hall, and the king of Chu asked, "Is he a ** person?" What crime was committed?
It was the Qi people who committed the crime of theft", "Why are the Qi people so unproductive? Do this kind of thing. King Chu said with a smile.
As soon as the people of Qi arrived in Chu State, they became thieves, probably because the water and soil were different! After listening to Yan Zi's words, the king of Chu had no choice but to accompany him.
From then on, the king of Chu no longer dared to disrespect Yanzi.

At that time, the state of Qi and the state of Jin were in a stage of hostility, and the state of Qi could not be completely sure of defeating the state of Jin with its national strength. Therefore, he wanted to form an alliance with the relatively powerful state of Chu. This was the most common thing in the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, and the famous Zhang Yi and Su Qin's "joint vertical and horizontal" also refers to such a strategy.
At that time, the ruler of Chu was King Chu Ling, a tyrannical king who was extremely poor and extravagant. He was the second son of the king of Chu Gong, killed his nephew, and set himself up as king. It is an abnormal upper position.
In the end, he was pulled off the throne by the people of Chu and hanged in the suburbs. When Yan Zi went to the envoy, he faced such a person and a country led by such a person.
