Chapter 974: Fraud
At this time, Feng Xi saw that Zhao Chang's eyes showed a sad color, and he was happy in his heart, and made persistent efforts: "Zuo Yin, after Zhao Ju, there are no more than three people who can succeed Ling Yin, one is Zuo Yin, the second is Sima Jingque, and the third is Zuo Qu Yuan.
Among the three, in terms of the closeness of the relationship with the king of Chu, the relationship between Zuotu and the king of Chu is the closest. In terms of talent, the name of Zuo Yin was famous in various countries more than ten years ago, and I think that Zuo Yin's talent is not as good as that of Zuo Disciple.
On the appeal and influence among the ministers, Zhao Ju took over the position of Ling Yin for a long time, and Jing's before the two Ling Yin of Jing Carp and Jingcui, Jing's limelight is flourishing, and many of the ministers are attached.
In terms of military merits, Zuo Yin has never led an army to battle, and Sima has led troops to fight outside all the year round, and in terms of military merits, Zuo Yin cannot be compared with Sima. ”
Saying that, Feng Xi saw that Zhao Chang's face was getting more and more ugly, and continued: "Therefore, if there is no accident, the possibility that Zuo Yin can replace Ling Yin is very small. ”
After speaking, Feng Xi paused, and seeing that Zhao Chang's face was cloudy, he couldn't help but smile, and then continued: "However, if there is the support of the right prime minister or even the Qin State, then the chance of Zuo Yin replacing Ling Yin will be as high as ninety percent." ”
"Ninety percent!" Zhao Chang was stunned for a moment, then lowered his head and thought silently.
After a long time, Zhao Chang raised his head and looked at Feng Xi with a pair of glowing eyes: "How does the Qin State plan to help you." ”
Feng Xi smiled when he heard this: "At present, the State of Chu is facing two problems, one is the dissatisfaction of the feudal monarchs in the city, and the other is the problem that the State of Chu is facing, which is jointly attacked by the five countries. These two things, one is imminent, and the other is a major matter related to the life and death of the Chu State, and this, the right prime minister can help Zuo Yin and solve the troubles of the Chu State. ”
Saying that, Feng Xi looked at Zhao Chang meaningfully and said: "Zuo Yin, if you can solve these two major matters at the same time, let me ask, after Zhao Ju, can Ling Yin's position still fall into the hands of others?" ”
Zhao Chang's eyes lit up, and he immediately asked, "Please give me advice, how to solve these two things." ”
Feng Xi laughed: "These two things may be difficult for Zuo Yin, but for my Qin State, they are not worth mentioning. ”
As he spoke, Feng Xi took out a silk book from his sleeve and handed it to Zhao Chang: "Zuo Yin, please see for yourself, this is the first big gift that this Qin State gave to Zuo Yin." ”
Zhao Chang looked at Feng Xi suspiciously, and then took the silk book and unfolded it, but saw that there were more than a dozen locations recorded on it, and they were all locations in the Yingdu.
"Sir, dare to ask what it is..."
"This is the foothold of the spies of the three kingdoms of Qi, Wei and Han in Yingdu."
When Zhao Chang heard this, the hand holding the silk book suddenly tightened, and then looked at Feng Xi in surprise: "Really? ”
"Whether it's true or not, Zuo Yin will know when he tries it."
Zhao Chang took a sharp breath of cold air when he heard this.
If this information is true, then the state of Chu can basically destroy the intelligence system of the three kingdoms in Yingdu in one fell swoop. Moreover, the state of Chu captured a large number of enemy spies in Yingdu and publicly eliminated these people, which can not only confirm the rumors that the enemy country did it, but also deter others.
In this way, this rumor incident can be regarded as resolved.
Thinking of this, Zhao Chang looked down at the information in his hand, and then looked up at Feng Xi again.
Feng Xi gave such a big gift without negotiating with him, which can be described as full of sincerity.
Feng Xi's meaning, or the meaning of Gan Mao and Qin State, is already obvious.
However, as the King of Chu said not long ago, rumors are just rumors after all, just a trivial matter. He is more concerned about the issue of the Five-Power Alliance, which is the real crisis of Chu.
Thinking about it, Zhao Chang calmed down, bowed and said, "Sir's information, it can be said that it is a great help." Also, dare to ask Mr., I don't know about the attack of the Five Kingdoms, and I ask Mr. for advice. ”
Feng Xi smiled and said: "Qin and Chu have been friends for many years, and there are no major contradictions. We don't really want to settle a grudge with Chu, so in this battle, we didn't occupy half of your country's land.
Now that the war is over, our kingdom has fulfilled its promise to Qi and Wei, and the army has returned to the country. Not long ago, the right prime minister thought of his friendship with Zuo Yin, the kindness of the king of Chu, and his relationship with the state of Chu. That's why this is sent to Yingdu, hoping that through Zuo Yin's relationship, the two countries of Qin and Chu can be reconciled. ”
And so it was.
Zhao Chang couldn't help but nod slightly when he heard this, Feng Xi's purpose was not beyond his expectations.
Although the relationship between Qin and Chu has not been good over the years, the war between Qin and Chu is much more difficult than that with other countries, not because of anything else, but because of the inconvenience of roads.
Wuguan Road and Hanzhong Road are all tortuous and difficult to navigate, which makes the war between Qin and Chu face great trouble.
Previously, the Qin State was determined to destroy Chu, not because of the contradiction between Qin and Chu, but because the Chu State was too strong.
Now, after the First Battle of Chencheng, the state of Chu was severely weakened, and the state of Qin had no reason to continue fighting against the state of Chu.
Also, if Qin and Chu form an alliance, with the current weak state of Chu, it may attract the prying eyes of Qi and Wei. More importantly, the state of Chu lost a large amount of land, which must also be recovered.
Therefore, there will inevitably be many contradictions between the Chu State and the Qi, Wei, Han and Song Kingdoms, and there will be constant filth.
In this way, as long as Qin and Chu form an alliance, Qin can gain a foothold in the eastern part of the country, sit back and watch Chu compete with Qi, Wei and Han, and then reap the benefits of the fisherman.
Even, judging from the information that Feng Xi had just taken out from the spies of the Three Kingdoms, perhaps the Qin State already had thoughts about Wei and Han by now. After all, this time the five countries won a great victory against the Chu State, and both Wei and Han obtained a large amount of land from the Chu State, and the strength of Wei and Han was unfavorable to the Qin State.
Thinking about it, Zhao Chang felt that he had grasped the context of the Qin State.
Since the Qin State intends to reconcile with the Chu State, the Chu State will not refuse, after all, this is also the urgent need of the Chu State.
And as long as he can promote the Qin-Chu alliance, solve the troubles in the heart of the Chu State, and make Yin's position go to him, presumably the king of Chu and the ministers will all be happy to see him succeed Ling Yin.
Thinking of this, Zhao Chang smiled "haha" and responded: "Let the two countries of Qin and Chu reconcile, this is also what I have been looking forward to, if the right prime minister is interested, then I am willing to make every effort to promote this matter." ”
Saying that, Zhao Chang looked at the silk book in his hand and asked, "Sir, the right prime minister has helped so much, I don't know if there is anything that needs to be done?" ”
Feng Xi saw that Zhao Chang had already taken the bait, and he was overjoyed, and said: "The right prime minister has two things that need Zuo Yin's help. ”
"Please."
"First, if Zuo Yin succeeds Ling Yin, the right prime minister hopes that Qi and Chu will break off diplomatic relations."
"Yes." Zhao Chang nodded solemnly and promised: "As long as you become Ling Yin in Xia, as long as you are still in Ling Yin's position, as long as Qin does not take the initiative to attack Chu State, then Qi and Chu will not be on good terms." ”
"Good." Feng Xi said with great joy: "This second thing, that is, I hope that after Ling Yin ascends the throne, he can promote the Northern Expedition to Wei as soon as possible and recover the lost territory in Huaibei." ”
"It turns out that the Qin State is planning to attack the Wei State." Zhao Chang was stunned in his heart, and then immediately responded: "Please rest assured that Mr. and Prime Minister Right are in this matter, the Wei State seized the land of Huaibei, and my Chu State will not just forget it." ”
"Good!" Feng Xi smiled and arched his hand: "In this case, there will be Lao Lingyin."
When Zhao Chang heard Feng Xi call himself Ling Yin, he couldn't help but feel happy in his heart.
