Chapter 384: Negotiation or Cooperation

Wu Yong didn't know what happened in Lin'an City, he still entered Lin'an City according to the established plan.

As soon as they entered Lin'an City, everyone was separated, everyone's tasks were different, and everyone's tasks were almost unrelated to others. So except for Wu Yong, the messenger of the Han Dynasty, everyone else has evaporated from the world.

Wu Yong sent someone to submit the official document, after all, he was an envoy to the Southern Song Dynasty on behalf of the Han Empire, and it would not feel good if he was sneaky, which is why Wu Yong was separated from the others.

After listening to Qin Hui's Chen Song, Song Gaozong Zhao Gou said with a gloomy face: "Qing family, what you said is true? ”

"Your Majesty, every sentence is true, but now that the strength of the Han Kingdom is too huge, it is better for us to focus on forbearance." Before Qin Hui entered the palace, he had already figured out the psychology of the official family, and he had already organized his words, he said very cautiously: "Your Majesty, we can't startle the snake now, we must let the Han State think that our Song State is easy to bully, only in this way can we paralyze them and gain time to complete the deployment." ”

"Damn, one day, I will cut Liu Zhenglong, a chaotic minister and thief, with a thousand knives, five horses and corpses, and bones and ashes." Song Gaozong Zhao Gou also knew that Qin Hui was right, and now he could only pay tribute to his ministers in exchange for several years of peace, and then try to take revenge. He forcibly suppressed the anger in his heart and said: "I can back down, or even go to the emperor's name, change to the king of Song, pay tribute, and kiss is okay." But this is just an expedient measure, how can we fight back, otherwise sooner or later, the Song Kingdom will be eaten away by that chaotic minister and thief little by little. ”

Seeing that the housekeeper was willing to give in, Qin Hui said: "The military of the Han State is strong, but the overall population is sparse, the materials are scarce, the northwest is barren, and the Central Plains is in turmoil. We went north to unite with the Jin Kingdom, and attacked the Gong Han Kingdom from the north to the south. At the same time, he sent people to contact Annan and let them enter the palace Dali to contain the forces of the Han State. As soon as the war started, we began to create public opinion, so that the people of the world would know that Liu Zhenglong was a rebellious minister and thief who betrayed the Great Song Dynasty, and the chaos in the world was the result of his plot to usurp the throne. Let the people of the world know that the Great Song Dynasty is orthodox, and the Han Kingdom is nothing more than a rebellion. No matter how powerful a country is, it cannot compete with public opinion. Once there is chaos in the Han Kingdom, it will soon form a boiling trend, and in the end, it will be up to Providence to stand on that side. ”

Absurd, the conquest of countries and countries, the comparison of the original strength, how can it be explained by the will of heaven?

Zhao Gou agreed with Qin Hui's suggestion, but he just felt that the Jin State would not send troops, after all, the Jin army could be said to have almost never won in the history of the war with the Han army, how could it be easy to agree to the north and south to fight against the Han in this case?

"The Jin State has no choice, the Han State has few personnel, this is only relative to the Great Song Dynasty, but in fact, the population of the Han State far exceeds that of the Jin State. After years of campaigning, the Han soldiers suffered serious losses, and it was even more serious for the Jin State. Now Jin Guo still has a strong cavalry that can fight against the Han army, if after a period of time, this group of veterans will stay away from the battlefield, and the new soldiers will not come up, Jin Guo will completely lose the capital to fight against Han Jin. ”

"You mean, Jin Guo still has the ability to fight a decisive battle with the Han army, and if it drags on, it will lose the initiative, and Jin Guo is willing to send troops?" As soon as he heard that the Jin army could go out to fight the Han Kingdom, the official Zhao Gou suddenly came to his senses, as if he saw the fall of the Han Kingdom, and Liu Zhenglong knelt in front of him and begged for mercy.

"That's right, the minister suggested sending Wan Qian to envoy to the Jin country."

"Quasi-playing, but it's not so easy to deal with the Han Kingdom." In order to ensure that the peace talks can proceed smoothly, Zhao Gou said to Qin Hui: "I am willing to divide the river with the Jin State and govern it, and the north of the Yangtze River will return to the Jin State and the south to the Great Song Dynasty." In addition, he is willing to pay a million tributes a year. ”

Qin Hui didn't expect the official family to be so generous, but he also understood that the north of the Yangtze River was not in the hands of the Song State at all, and belonged to the Han State, which was equivalent to using the territory of the Han State as a condition for the Jin Army to send troops, which was normal.

"Aiqing, you will personally preside over the peace talks with the Han Kingdom this time, right?"

"It's not appropriate for the minister, let's let Zhu Xianggong participate, after all, he is old and planning the country, good at calculation, and he is the right minister, and it is very suitable to serve as the plenipotentiary representative."

Qin Hui is eyeing Zhu Shengfei's position as the right minister, and only by pushing Zhu Shengfei out can he logically win this phase.

Song Gaozong Zhao Gou saw through Qin Hui's mind and did not debunk it, so he said: "Okay, let Zhu Shengfei be in charge of the peace talks." ”

Zhu Shengfei had long expected that there would be such a day, it was obvious that Qin Hui was digging a pit for himself, he did not refuse, but said that he was old and lacked energy, and he hoped to quit the political hall. The official family pretended to stay for a few times and then agreed, and in order to reward Zhu Shengfei for his many years of hard work for the imperial court, he was directly crowned as a prince.

On the ninth day of the ninth month of September in the fifth year of Shenlong, the Double Ninth Festival, on this day, Wu Yong officially visited Zhu Shengfei, which was the prelude to the formal peace talks on the second day, and Zhu Shengfei personally set up a banquet in the house to entertain him.

After three rounds of wine and five flavors of food, Wu Yong put down the wine glass and said: "Zhu Xianggong is still in good spirits, why should he resign from the position of Xianggong?" ”

"For the sake of peace talks, but also to save my life, and even more so to better serve the Son of Heaven."

At this time, Zhu Shengfei didn't hide anything, he told Qin Hui's plan to delay the Han Dynasty's attack on the Song Kingdom, and finally Zhu Shengfei said: "Wan Qiyu has already set off for the Jin Kingdom, I told him to find a way to turn around the Eastern Capital, report to Your Majesty, and then go to the Jin Kingdom after hearing the will." We have talked a lot about it, shouldn't it be better than the topic, this time you came to Song Kingdom, what is the topic of negotiation, and what does Your Majesty want to get. ”

Wu smiled but did not answer.

"Brother Xian, you don't have to be too nervous, there is a shadow outside this secret room, and the news will not be leaked."

Wu Yong took out the holy decree and said, "Zhu Xianggong takes the decree." ”

"The minister takes the order."

Zhu Shengfei never expected that His Majesty had not forgotten himself, and not only crowned himself as the Duke of Chu, but also crowned himself as the crown prince and Taibao, and stayed behind in Lin'an. Although he did not become a scholar, he was also regarded as an imperial grace, you must know that the Duke of Chu and the Crown Prince Taibao are not real positions, but they are just a kind of grace, Lord, but Lin'an should be a scholar, and its importance is self-evident. Jiangnan needs stability in the future, and the status of Lin'an will surpass that of Emperor Jing Mansion Yin and Eastern Capital Mansion Yin, according to the Han system, it should be a university scholar, which is equivalent to affirming Zhu Shengfei's status.

The bachelor of the Han Dynasty and the bachelor of the Song Dynasty do not mean the same thing, the bachelor of the Han Dynasty is equivalent to the prince of the Song Dynasty's political hall, but because Zhu Shengfei is the minister of the Southern Song Dynasty, his identity is more embarrassing, so he did not serve as a university scholar, but he still served as a high-ranking Lin'an guard.

The Han Dynasty is the coexistence of the two capitals, and the Xijing is the political center of the Han Dynasty, the imperial capital (Chang'an), which is supervised by the crown prince, and the university scholar Yu Wenxu concurrently serves as the imperial capital Yin, the eastern capital is the military center of the Han Dynasty, the emperor of the Han Dynasty is in the eastern capital, and the eastern capital Yin is concurrently served by the fourth prince Zhao Wang Liu Yi. Originally, the status of Luoyang in Xijing and Nanjing should be reduced in Tianfu, and there was no longer a stay-at-home, and Jiangcheng Mansion, Jiangning Mansion, and Chengdu Mansion were called the five mansions, and they were appointed from the three civil officials. You must know that the young Yin of Xijing and Dongdu are all civil officials of the third grade. As for the Beijing Daimyo's Mansion, which is now under the rule of the Jin State, it is no longer within the administrative area of the Han Dynasty.

The crown prince Taibao is from the first product, that is, it shows that Lin'an and Dijing, the status of the eastern capital are the same, which shows how much His Majesty attaches importance to Zhu Shengfei.

The higher the position, the greater the responsibility. At this time, Zhu Shengfei understood why Wu Yong didn't easily say the purpose of the negotiation on this trip, which seemed to have something to do with him.

After Zhu Shengfei put away the holy decree, he said: "Could it be that Your Majesty wants to take Lin'an without blood and imprison Zhao Gou." ”

"Exactly."

"There's a plan."

"There is a plan, but it still needs Zhu Xianggong's cooperation." Wu Yong no longer went around in circles, he dragged out the whole plan, and finally said: "I personally implemented the plan of the mutiny, but the situation is stable, and the local suppression requires Zhu Xianggong to worry a lot." ”

Zhu Shengfei's protΓ©gΓ© is all over the world, and he is highly respected in the court, which is used to stabilize the court situation, and local suppression is very suitable.

On the surface, it seems to be a very abrupt mutiny, but in fact, more than ten years ago,

When Zhao Gou was still serving as a guard in Xijing Luoyang, Liu Zhenglong began to lay out, otherwise he would not have placed General Shi Yong, Cai Kun and others by Zhao Gou's side. Not only that, when Liu Zhenglong went down to the south of the Yangtze River to deal with Zhu Mian, he began to lay out in Lin'an City.

There is one point, I'm afraid the world is not clear, more than half of the land in the entire Lin'an City is owned by the Han Dynasty, when Liu Zhenglong, the four major families and the Liu family, the Xiang family, the Chai family, and the Zheng family desperately bought land in Lin'an City, just for today's mutiny, which is nearly 20 years of layout.

Zhao Gou never dreamed that the owner of the land of the palace was Liu Zhenglong, and at the beginning of the construction of the entire palace, the underground passage had already been repaired, all in preparation for the mutiny.

When Cao Sheng became the prefect of Hangzhou, he was also making a layout for today. Not only that, but half of the other half of the land in Hangzhou belongs to the Qian family. You must know that the Qian family was the King of Wu in Hangzhou, and it was deeply rooted in Hangzhou.

Qian Guifei's mother family has been sticking to Hangzhou, just for this mutiny, during this period, constantly retreating to the imperial court, that is all an illusion, in fact, the Qian family is still a unique existence in Lin'an City (Hangzhou). It can be said that there are two imperial courts in Lin'an City, the imperial court on the table is the Zhao family, and the court under the table is the Qian family.

Zhu Shengfei didn't expect that His Majesty would start to lay out in Lin'an nearly twenty years ago, at this time, Zhu Shengfei was thinking that His Majesty was the reincarnation of Da Luo Jinxian, and he was a god who couldn't go down to earth, otherwise how could he see so far?

Wu Yong seemed to see Zhu Shengfei's confusion, he said with a smile: "Jiangnan is rich, this is a well-known thing to passers-by, but Fang La made a mess and burned Lin'an City, at that time, the entire Lin'an City was in chaos, there were robberies everywhere, and there were rogues everywhere. The land has been extremely cheap, His Majesty bought land in Hangzhou with the vision of investment, you must know that Your Majesty is a boy who scatters wealth, wealth can be rich and rival the country, under his leadership, the four major families and the Liu family, the Xiang family, the Zheng family, and the Chai family have promised to buy land in Hangzhou, as for the Qian family, it goes without saying that Lin'an City was originally the Qian family. ”

Despite this, Zhu Shengfei still felt that His Majesty was a god, because more than ten years ago, no one was optimistic about King Kang Zhao Gou, and this investment can be said to be a stroke of genius. Just investing can only be said to be magical, but with Shi Yong, Cai Kun and others, it is definitely something that only immortals can do, and from this point of view, Your Majesty must be a god.

In fact, Wu Yong's heart is to worship Liu Zhenglong, he secretly served Liu Zhenglong in his early years, at that time he just felt that this person was definitely not a thing in the pool, and he would definitely soar in the future, but he never thought that he would come to this point.

Zhu Shengfei pondered for a long time and then said to Wu Yong: "The whole plan is perfect, and I can also control the court situation and the place to the greatest extent. But locally, Liu Guangshi, Zhang Jun, Wu Jue, this is difficult to control, if they are rescued by King Qin, the situation will still get out of control. Wang Yuan in the city is in charge of the forbidden army, this person is Zhao Gou's cronies, and he is not so easy to deal with. ”

"Liu Guangshi, the general who escaped, is not so terrible, you only need to instigate Zhong Xiang and Yang Mi to make his movements bigger in Dongting Lake and contain Liu Guangshi's troops. Zhang Jun, love money, we will have enough money to smash him and hold his arm, of course, the members of the Dragon Soul Society are by Zhang Jun's side, if he can't buy it, he will kill him, his younger brother has already been bought by us. As for Wu Jue, he has returned to the Han Dynasty. The problem of Wang Yuan in the city, I will discuss it with Miao Fu and Liu Zhengyan and then come up with a plan, in a word, Zhu Xianggong, you deploy it below, we will divide labor and cooperate, and start at the end of the year. By the way, in addition, if you get Kang Shoes, this eunuch is very important. ”

Zhu Shengfei and Wu used the details of the entire plan to deliberate for two hours.

The next day, during the formal negotiations, Zhu Shengfei and Wu Yong both looked very tired. However, during the negotiation, the two were in a war of words, did not back down a step, and fully exerted their eloquence and negotiation skills to the extreme. The two of them, one is eloquent, and the other is clever and witty. In this way, the two sides kept talking about hunger, and also, Yang Yang talked about a famous place, so he could only eat first and talk in the afternoon.

On the first day of the negotiations, it basically ended without a problem, which is the most common in the negotiations between countries, and on the first day, both sides opened their mouths and fully talked about their own conditions, while the other side did not recognize the conditions offered by the other side at all. However, the first day is a tentative negotiation, and both sides must find out the bottom line of the other party, otherwise it will be difficult to see the real chapter on the second day.
