Chapter 447: Lobbying
The crown prince was taken aback, and it took a while to react, now his position as the crown prince is more stable than before, where can there be a position that is not guaranteed.
This must be Gongsun Yan's threatening words.
Thinking about it, the prince smiled and said, "Rhino head, don't make such a joke with me, it's not funny." ”
Gongsun Yan's face showed disapproval: "Could it be that the prince thinks that the old decay is really scaring you, or does the prince think that if the two countries of Qin and Wei make peace, they can get the support of the Qin State and sit back and relax?" ”
When the prince heard Gongsun Yan say that he was scared, he still showed a look of satisfaction.
But when he heard Gongsun Yan mention that Qin and Wei talked about peace, he was stunned, and Gongsun Yan also knew the news.
Then, the crown prince had another doubt in his heart, since Gongsun Yan knew that Qin Wei was making peace, why did he still say that his status as the crown prince was not guaranteed?
In other words, the crown prince was made the crown prince, and he had to start with the destruction of Yan by the Qi State.
After the news of Qi destroying Yan spread in the world, various countries tried to destroy Qi and save Yan.
However, at that time, Qin and Chu were still enemy countries and contained each other.
So, in order to ease the relationship between the two countries, Qin, who had just beaten Wei down and was driven back to Guanzhong by the Qi-Chu coalition army, sent an envoy to Wei and set up Gongzi Zheng, who was friendly with Qin and Chu at the same time, as the crown prince.
Immediately afterwards, the kings of the Three Kingdoms of Zhao, Wei and Chu met in Handan and set the tone for rescuing Yan State.
After these two events, Qin and Chu opened the channel for peace talks.
Therefore, the prince's political body is Qin and Chu, even if the Qin State was first driven back to Guanzhong by the Chu State and the Three Jins, and then weakened by the alliance of various countries. However, because of the good relations between Chu and Wei, Wei Zheng still sat firmly on the throne of the crown prince
As long as Wei is still friendly with one of the two countries of Qin and Chu, then Wei Zheng's position as the crown prince is still very stable.
Therefore, when he thought that the relationship between Chu and Wei was not good now, but the relationship between Qin and Wei was rapidly eased, the crown prince immediately felt relieved.
Gongsun Yan saw that the crown prince was still not nervous, so he asked: "I don't know if the prince can know who the envoy of the Song State to the Wei State is this time." ”
The crown prince glanced at Gongsun Yan, he naturally knew the news, so he responded: "It is Qiu Li, the important minister of the former Zhao State." ”
Gongsun Yan nodded and said: "Yes, it is Qiu Li, Qiu Li sent an envoy to Wei as an envoy of the Song State, I don't know what the prince thinks this represents?" ”
The crown prince said expressionlessly: "Zhao may be dissatisfied with Wei's attack on Song Taoyi, so Qiu Ye visited Wei as a Song envoy. ”
Gongsun Yan then asked, "Prince, if this time the Wei State ignores the Zhao State and insists on uniting with the Qi State against the Chu and Song Kingdoms, then what about the Zhao State." ”
The crown prince opened his mouth, then smiled slightly but did not answer, his heart was full of everything.
When Qin and Zhao are at war, what will happen to Zhao Guoguo, except for anger in his heart, I am afraid there is no other way.
Even if King Zhao sacrificed to the sky and cursed the Wei State, it was the King of Wei who put it in front first.
Gongsun Yan saw that the crown prince was smiling and silent, so he said in a speculative tone: "Maybe the king and the crown prince thought that the Qin State would attack the Zhao State next, and the Zhao State would not take care of the Wei State." ”
The prince still smiled and said nothing.
Seeing this, Gongsun Yan also smiled, and then said: "It's just that the old man is foolish, I'm afraid that in the near future, the Wei State will be attacked by the Qin State. ”
The prince said with a smile: "The rhinoceros head is inevitably too alarmist." ”
"It's not that the old man is alarmist, but that there is a reason for it, the disaster of Wei is not in sight, and in the near future, please listen to me." Gongsun Yan shook his head and explained:
"Now the Qin and Wei countries are making peace, the purpose is to attack Shangjun and regain the lost territory. Once Qin and Zhao started a war, in order to keep Shangjun and keep the main force of the six-nation alliance of Chu in the Three Jin and Two weeks, King Zhao would inevitably stand firmly on the side of Chu and break with Wei.
This is not because of anything else, but because Korea must have the support of the state of Chu in order to protect itself under the troops of the state of Qin. South Korea is on the side of Chu, so the two weeks of being surrounded by South Korea will inevitably be on the side of Chu, except for Zhao and Wei, the other four countries of the Six-Nation Alliance are huddled together, I don't know what the prince thinks King Zhao will choose.
It was a direct choice to unite with the four countries including the Chu State to fight against the Qin State. Or to unite with Qi Wei, and then win over Korea, both against the Qin State that was close at hand and the Chu State far to the south.
Therefore, the war between Qin and Zhao will lead to a break between Zhao and Wei before the results are known. ”
"This..." The crown prince was silent when he heard this.
After a pause, he suddenly spoke: "Maybe the Qin State may attack Korea." ”
As soon as these words came out, the prince immediately regretted it.
Sure enough, Gongsun Yan immediately sneered when he heard this: "If the Qin State attacks Korea, then the disaster suffered by the Wei State will come faster." Among the three Jin Dynasty, Korea was the weakest, and it was simply unable to fight against either of the two countries of Qin and Chu on its own. Once Qin invaded Han, unlike Zhao, there was only one choice for Korea, and that was to wholeheartedly surrender to Chu in exchange for Chu's support. At that time, South Korea will not only have the support of the coalition forces, but also the support of the Chu army, which is close at hand. ”
After Gongsun Yan finished speaking, seeing that the crown prince was speechless, he muttered: "There is still a possibility of success for Qin to attack Zhao, and if it attacks Korea, it is doomed to return in vain." Han and Zhao received the support of the coalition army, so it will be difficult for the Qin State to achieve results in a short period of time, and after a long time, it will definitely think about changes and choose another path. ”
As he spoke, he glanced at the crown prince and kept silent.
When the prince heard the urgency, he saw that Gongsun Yan suddenly stopped talking, and immediately asked: "Rhino head, what will happen next, could it be that the Qin State will attack my Wei State next." ”
Gongsun Yan sighed when he heard this: "The Wei State rashly intervened in the battle of Qichu, and the people rebelled and left, and then the main force was transferred to the east, and the west must be empty. If Qin doesn't fight Wei at this time, what country can it fight. ”
Then, after the crown prince had made some preparations, Gongsun Yan threw out a message again: "What's more, when the old man came to Daliang from Xuecheng, the king of Chu had already sent an envoy to Xianyang to discuss the marriage of Gongzi Ji and Princess Chu. ”
The prince was stunned.
Qin Chu marriage!
If it were any other time, there would be nothing to marry between Qin and Chu, after all, the two countries of Qi and Qin were also about to marry.
However, if the Qin State was attacking Zhao and Han for a long time, and the Qi and Wei countries were fighting with Chu and Song and other countries, this was an excellent opportunity, an opportunity to change the direction of the attack.
At that time, will the Qin state attack the western empty and isolated Wei state?
Prince Zheng didn't dare to gamble.
Gongsun Yan saw that the crown prince showed a heavy expression, and continued: "Prince, if the Qin State attacks Wei, then how do you deal with yourself, prince.
The crown prince is established by the Qin state, and you have a deep connection with the Chu state, if the Wei state breaks with the Qin and Chu countries at the same time, the prince will lose foreign aid. ”
After a pause, Gongsun Yan spoke: "I don't know who the prince thinks the prince thinks the king likes more than you and your brothers." ”
The crown prince thought for a while, and said with an ugly face: "Gongzi Ning has always been loyal and honest, abides by his duties, and is proficient in Confucianism. ”
Saying that, the crown prince shook his head again: "But Wei Ning is too loyal, abides by etiquette, does not marry princes outside, does not hand over ministers internally, and his strength is too weak to threaten my status at all." ”
"Gongzi Ning may not be able to." Gongsun Yan nodded, and then said, "Then I don't know what the prince thinks of Gongzi." ”
