Chapter 654: Harmony
One of the conditions for peace talks proposed by the Kingdom of Kosi was to ask Princess Yunluo of the Kingdom of Yueliang to go to the Kingdom of Kosi to make peace, and as soon as the news came out, the entire palace was shaken. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
The war is probably really as Liang Xi said, the aggressive intentions of the Kosi Kingdom are not obvious, they mainly want to force Yue Liang to open customs and trade, and take advantage of this opportunity to make a lot of money with an unequal business model.
Yue Liang did not want to fight with Kexi, in addition to the disparity in strength, it also coincided with the eventful time at this time, and he really couldn't afford it. Liang Xiao understood this in his heart, but he couldn't easily give in and retreat, and let the Lion of Kosi open his mouth, if he really gave in, maybe the other party would not choose to extort money in the peace talks, but directly in.
Therefore, the battle between Yue Liang and Kosi was also very heroic.
After the most heroic one, half luck and half man-made, there was turmoil within the kingdom of Corsi, the old king died violently, and the princes fought for the throne in a vigorous nest fight, and the eldest prince lost to the obscure fourth prince in this extremely bloody infighting, and the fourth prince quickly ascended the throne in the jaw-dropping at home and abroad, and became the new king of Corsi.
During the internal strife in Kosi, Liang Xiao's maritime defense began to change from offensive to conservative, he had people in Kosi, and Liang also had people in Kosi, but Liang Xiao was in charge of Kosi, and Liang was in charge of business, but these don't matter, the key is that they still have some connections.
I have to say that Liang Yi decided to send them this time This risky move was the right one, after the tireless efforts of the two of them, they finally got on the relationship in the shadows of the potential Corsi Kingdom, and through this set of relationship clues, they caught up with the four princes of the Corsi Kingdom.
During the period of national infighting, it is not suitable for naval warfare, and when the new emperor ascends the throne, it is not suitable for naval warfare, the fourth prince is not as interested in attacking Yueliang as the old king, compared with the radicals of the previous generation, the new fourth prince is obviously more conservative, and in the latest naval battle, the Kosi Kingdom did not take any advantage.
However, the fourth prince did not immediately respond to the temptation, and then the two countries fought a few more times at sea, until the fourth prince finally sat firmly on the throne, and Liang Xiao formally proposed peace talks to the new king of Corsi through Aji, the illegitimate son of the Grand Duke who had been under him.
After discussing with the cabinet for a while, the new king of Kosi finally gave a response, and the peace talks were okay, and the conditions for the peace talks must be clear and comprehensive.
Switching to the sea and trading with each other is the most basic, and all kinds of inequalities in trade are indeed enough to make people anxious, even the most calm and very good at doing business, there are a few times when they can barely go down at the peace talks, and they have to leave the table angrily.
However, the current situation of Yue Liangguo is that they do not have the capital to leave the table angrily in front of the other party's civil and military ministers, although they are not weak in this peace negotiation, but everyone knows that at the moment of proposing peace talks, Yue Liangguo is succumbing to the war, because at this juncture, he really can't afford to fight.
The conditions were all over one by one, Liang Su tried to find a balance in the imbalance, and when the peace talks, which were as long as the peace talks, were finally coming to an end, Liang Gu secretly breathed a sigh of relief, fortunately, he had not collapsed, although he was on the verge.
However, what happened next caught them off guard, and the envoy of the Kosi State who was in charge of negotiating with Yue Liang suddenly added an article at the end of the peace negotiation treaty, which is said to be an order specially sent by their new king from the national capital, and the last article of the peace talks is that the new king of the Kosi Kingdom asked Princess Yunluo of the Yue Liang State to go to the Kosi Kingdom to make peace, and said that only if the two countries have a good relationship with Qin and Jin, can they share the prosperity and peace.
As soon as this treaty appeared, Liang Xiao and Liang Gu's faces turned white, especially Liang Xiao.
However, there is no room for change in this matter, and it is easier to persuade the new king of Corsi to change his mind than to go back and persuade Liang Xi.
persuaded Liang Xiao to do this, and he was unwilling to do it from the bottom of his heart.
Inside the palace.
Liang Shuo, who had been sick for a long time, finally left the palace because of this incident.
Liang Yi, Liang Ao and several other princes all gathered in the palace, and they all frowned.
In the past, there was also a precedent for the princess of Yueliang and her relatives to go to Kosi, and in the years when the three kingdoms did not like each other, in order to maintain the apparent peace, the princesses of each country paid the price of their lives, among which the weaker Yueliang country sent the most princesses. However, most of these princesses went to the Qizhi country, and there were very few princesses who went to the Kosi country to make peace, and there were only four in history.
The reasons are, first, that the two sides are not of the same race, and the differences in culture, language and folklore make it difficult to establish harmony; Second, Kosi is monogamous, although men with noble status will also have three wives and four concubines openly and secretly, but there is only one wife in the law, and there will be no situation where a group of women like Yue Liang appear in the same family, so it is very prudent to marry a wife, Yue Liang can welcome women from other countries as concubines, but if Kosi wants to marry, it can only be a wife, and most royal families will not marry a foreign family as a wife; Third, foreign women marrying into Kosi need to change their Chinese language and religion in Kosi, which is very difficult for foreign women, and because of geographical reasons, they generally cannot return to their homeland for life, in case they encounter the rejection or even hatred of foreign women by the people of Kosi again, it is not pleasant.
Usually the princesses of the pro-Kosi Kingdom are reluctant to go, and they have also chosen a clan girl to replace them before, but this time, there is no way to choose someone else to replace Liang Xi, because the new king of the Kosi Kingdom asked Liang Xi to go over and kiss, not Liang Xi The other party does not want it, if he steals Liang and changes the pillar, he is afraid that it will cause a new war.
"How could he recognize Ah Xi?" Liang Shuo, who was sitting on the dragon seat, frowned and asked in a dark tone.
Liang Xiaoyi frowned: "I asked Aji to inquire, and Aji replied that according to the retinue of the new king, when the eldest prince of the Kosi Kingdom visited the Yueliang Kingdom that year, the fourth prince of the Kosi Kingdom was also in the mission, but he did not go to the palace. Presumably...... He met Ah Xi outside the palace. ā
Liang Xiao said "probably", but since the other party answered like this, then it is very likely that this matter is true.
The people in the palace were silent.
"No matter what, you must not let Ah Xi go to kiss." After a long time, Liang Xiao pursed his lips and spoke, looked at Liang Shuo on the throne, and said loudly.
He used the word "absolutely" and spoke in a very hard tone.
Liang Shuo glanced at him.
At this moment, Qian Dehai walked in quickly with his waist hunched, walked to Liang Shuo's side, and said with an embarrassed face:
"Your Majesty, Princess Yunluo is waiting outside, saying that she wants to meet the emperor."
Liang Shuo frowned, wanting to sigh, but didn't sigh: "You tell her to go back first, you tell her, let her rest assured, I have an arrangement." ā
Qian Dehai responded with a smile, turned around, just took two steps, Liang Xi had already come in, and her little Xiazi, who was following behind her and didn't dare to stop her, had a panicked expression, Qian Dehai saw it, glared at him fiercely, and hurriedly turned his smile to Liang Xi:
"Princess, why did you come in like this, the emperor is talking to His Royal Highnesses about big things, why don't you wait outside for a while and then come in, the old slave has prepared your favorite pineapple cake for you."
Liang Xi glanced at him, didn't speak, and smiled faintly at Liang Shuo, who had not completely faded the heaviness and complexity in his expression:
"Father, the named relatives can't refuse, I'll go this time."
