Chapter 274: Cutting the Land Again
At that time, Xiangyin represented something, and even the right to cede land.
When King Huan heard this, he couldn't help but glare at the minister, secretly blaming him for being too talkative.
Seeing this, the latter hurriedly bowed: "Yes, it's Weichen who says more." β
As he spoke, he also returned to the train.
The reason why King Huan asked this question was because Qin's eastward departure was still somewhat worried for him, because the Four Kingdoms had attacked Qin, and he was afraid of being hated by Xiao Yuan.
Therefore, I want to take this opportunity to resolve potential contradictions.
Liu Yuzhi naturally agreed to this on the surface, and after the two talked again in the palace, King Huan also asked people to get the documents.
The silk scroll was unfolded on the Wang case, King Huan lifted the brush and began to write, and when the book was completed, he first confirmed it, and then picked up the Wang seal, covered it on the silk book, and then handed it to the attendant on the side and said: "Present it to Qin Xiang." β
"Yes." The attendant answered, bent down and respectfully took it, and then walked down and handed it to Liu Yuzhi.
The latter was unfolded, read it carefully, and the silk book was nothing more than saying that some Qin and Huan countries should abandon their previous suspicions, rebuild friendship, exchange commerce and trade, and so on.
After Liu Yuzhi read it, he also spread the silk book on the ground, and then took out his Qin State Seal and covered it.
As soon as this seal was stamped, it meant that Qin had agreed to these agreements, and within the time of the document, the two countries could not fight again.
At that time, when the nations were competing for hegemony, once a treaty was signed, if you broke your trust in others, it was equivalent to losing your trust in the world, and in the future, which country would dare to make an alliance with you? Therefore, no monarch would dare to destroy the alliance easily.
Seeing that the matter had been completed, King Huan couldn't help but be overjoyed, and after collecting the paperwork, he also got up and said, "Okay! Now Qin Xiang on behalf of the King of Qin, and Huan Guo again to repair friendship, this king is very happy, now, the time is not early, this king has let people in the palace banquet, invite Qin Xiang to drink together. β
"Your Highness is so polite." Liu Yuzhi hurriedly saluted.
"Haha! Qin Xiangplease. King Huan said, and also walked to the palace: "All Aiqing, all of you will go to the banquet with me." β
"Thank you, Your Majestyβ" the people said in unison.
Huan Guo's side has adopted the plan that is most beneficial to him, which is understandable.
At the same time, Qinzhou.
At this time, the envoys sent by the Jin State had already entered the court of the Qin State.
Xiao Yuan met him in the court hall, and after the latter gave a salute, he also made his intention clear to the point.
After hearing this, Xiao Yuan smiled and said, "Listening to the envoy's words, do you want me to withdraw from the Qin State?" β
"Yes." Jin envoy said.
"This is interesting, the war is a matter of national security, just because the envoy has red mouth and white teeth, and as soon as he opens his mouth, let me withdraw from the army? Even if Your Excellency is representing the King of Jin, but the King of Jin, who do you really think you are? Xiao Yuan said, his tone slightly unkind.
When the Jin envoy heard this, he hurriedly shook his hand: "No, no, no, His Royal Highness King Qin, don't misunderstand, it's not that what you mean." β
"On what grounds?" Xiao Yuan asked again.
The Jin envoy said: "In order to show sincerity, if His Highness agrees to withdraw the army, our country is willing to make all post-war compensation, and pay the Qin State a huge amount of gold, silver and jade brocade." β
"Sounds tempting." Xiao Yuan said, and shook his head: "The Qin country is poor, but these can't calm the anger of my Qin army's soldiers. β
Knowing what he meant, the Jin envoy was a little anxious: "But His Royal Highness the King of Qin, Bai Ze's matter is completely a misunderstanding, the assassin is definitely not sent by my king, but a person with ulterior motives, intending to frame and provoke a war between Qin and Jin." β
"What about the attack on Qin by the Four Kingdoms?" Xiao Yuan didn't seem to want to entangle with him more about Bai Ze, and said directly: "These are all the plans of King Jin, right?" Let me ask Your Excellency, was there a feud between Qin and Jin before? Why did the King of Jin attack me? Together with the Four Kingdoms, I want to destroy Qin, this revenge, my Qin State, how can I not revenge! I, the soldiers of the Qin army, how can I not keep it in my heart! β
"This, this ......" Jin envoy had some words, didn't know how to explain, thought for a long time, and then said: "This, it is really a mistake in my king's decision-making, and I am apologizing for this matter here." β
"Apologies? Let me ask you, if Qin unites the four kingdoms and attacks Jin together, and after fighting, he tells you that he made a mistake, will the king of Jin give up? The war was provoked by your Jin Kingdom first, and it was definitely not the king's intention. β
"But Your Highness ......"
"Alright." Xiao Yuan interrupted him: "If the envoy has nothing else to say, let's retreat first." β
"Then how can His Royal Highness the King of Qin be willing to withdraw his troops?" The Jin envoy was in a hurry.
Xiao Yuan thought for a while and said: "If you want this king to withdraw from the army, you can cut the land of the two counties in the Jin Kingdom, so that you can release your previous suspicions." β
"This! How is this possible! The Jin envoy was in a hurry, and his tone changed: "His Royal Highness the King of Qin asked for this, isn't it too much of a deception!" β
"In that case, please take the step, this king is going to discuss the government." Xiao Yuan stretched out his hand directly, and the order to evict the guest was issued.
"His Royal Highness the King of Qin......"
Xiao Yuan stopped talking.
Seeing this, the Jin envoy had no choice but to salute his face: "Since this is the case, then you should retreat first, but please think twice, if the Qin and Jin soldiers do not stop, and the battle will be in the end, it will undoubtedly be a defeat for both sides......
Xiao Yuan still didn't speak, and began to lower his head and casually unfold a roll of bamboo slips to look at.
In such a situation, Xiao Yuan's strength was something that the Jin envoy did not expect, and he had no choice but to retreat.
After he left, someone from the Qin State minister in the palace naturally stood up and began to say: "O king, now that our army has captured Yiyang, if there is a huge amount of gold and silver, it will not be a good thing." β
Xiao Yuan put down the bamboo slip and glanced at the minister: "You mean, suggesting that this king accept the Jin State to negotiate peace?" β
"This, with this batch of gold and silver, our country can try to develop again, and in terms of amount, we have a great initiative." The minister said.
Xiao Yuan shook his head: "Gold and silver, but there is a small profit in front of me, what a good way, my Qin State, if I don't take this opportunity to defeat the Jin State in one go, after that, he King Jin will inevitably plot to attack Qin again." β
"This king can also tell the Zhongqing here, Qin, the determination to attack the Jin will not change!"
"Yes, Wechen knows." The minister hurriedly bowed back to the line.
Xiao Yuan's side has a clear attitude, not to mention that Yiyang has been lowered and the door of the Jin Kingdom has been opened, even if it is not defeated, it is impossible for him to collect gold and silver for a truce.
And the next day, the Jin envoy's purpose was not achieved, and he couldn't go back to make a mission, so he naturally began to ask to see Xiao Yuan again.
But this time, he still said the same thing, Xiao Yuan was a little displeased, and then later, he didn't want to see him again.
On this day, Shaofu Jiangyi came to ask for a meeting, because it was he who was responsible for receiving the Jin envoy.
In the study room of the palace, Jiang Yi said: "The king, the envoy of Jin asked to see him today, but the king did not allow it, and I am afraid that he will be truthful." β
"Yili, this king has already met him, but he has said the same thing three and five times, is there any need to say goodbye?" Xiao Yuan didn't raise his head.
"But the king ......"
Jiang Yi wanted to say something, but Xiao Yuan suddenly threw down the bamboo slip a little heavily and looked up at him.
This simple action shocked Jiang Yi's heart, where did she dare to talk nonsense, she hurriedly shrunk her shoulders tightly, and said in a slight trembling voice: "Yes, yes, Weichen retreated." β
