Han Xizai couldn't help but make a move, but Zhao Pu took a sip of tea without hearing it, and he didn't make a mistake.

Wei Cen said curtly: "Lord Zhao, last year, Chu and Tang discussed peace, and the doom... No, it is the Tang Dynasty and your prince who negotiated peace, and this specific matter is all through the hands of Lord Zhao, and Lord Zhao must be clear. Now that your prince is the king of Chu, my Tang Dynasty has also contributed a lot. This... ”

Zhao Pu said unceremoniously: "Lord Wei, there is a difference in this statement. In the past, my King Wumu fought for decades, only to have this land of Jingchu, King Wumu passed the throne to the king of Hengyang, and the king of Hengyang passed the throne to King Wenzhao, and King Wenzhao passed the throne to the king of my family, the Ma family, and governed Jingchu to the three generations of the calendar, and the four masters. The scholars are attached, and the people live and work in peace and contentment, relying on nothing more than my king Shengming, who is united in heart. At the beginning of the month, King Wenzhao was tired of being righteous and passed on the throne to my king, which was a son inheriting his father's business, and the normal rights were alternated. What does this have to do with your country? If your country doesn't use a single soldier or a single meter of grain, you want to ask for my Lianzhou, I'm afraid it's unreasonable. ”

Wei Cen blinked, unable to continue. Chang Mengxi said on the side: "Lord Zhao, in the past, when the five princes were trapped in Jingnan, there was a drought and no harvest; Foreign power and ministers, oppression to each other. Isn't it the benevolence of my lord that my lord has sent a large number of craftsmen, subsidized a lot of money and grain, opened a commercial port, and gained peace and stability in Jingnan? If it weren't for my lord's benevolence, I'm afraid the five princes wouldn't have lasted today. ”

"Hehe, Master Chang, I can't help but underestimate my Jing Chu. Your country has 35 states, and my Dachu also has 28 states. King Wenzhao is benevolent and loves the people, uses fewer knives and guns, the treasury is abundant, and there is a drought, how can I not cope with it? As for trade, buying and selling, it's not just me who is powerful? I'm afraid your country has also made a lot of profits. Zhao Pu said unhurriedly. In fact, the state of Chu seems to be quite powerful on the surface, but in the past ten years, Ma Xifan has been arrogant and lascivious, and has scavenged a lot of money from the common people, but he himself is also lavish and spends a lot of money, and the treasury is actually not very rich now. It's just that negotiations have always been about putting gold on their faces, and it is normal for Zhao Pu to say this.

"In that case, it's better for Chu and Tang to close their borders and stop trade." Han Xizai said on the side. Han Xizai has been paying attention to the Chu State for a long time, and he understands the plight of the Chu State very clearly. With this sentence, although Zhao Pu's face did not change much, he couldn't help but secretly beat the drum in his heart.

Before Zhao Pu could speak, Wei Cen was taken aback and said angrily: "Lord Han, how can national affairs be such a child's play." If you miss Your Majesty's big event, you can't afford to be guilty! He secretly scolded Han Xizai in his heart for not knowing that firewood, rice, oil and salt are expensive, he is in charge of this Privy Council, Li Tang's current situation, he understands it clearly, he thought that Fujian and Central Fujian have been in civil strife for many years, and the army should be captured as soon as it arrives, how do you know that things are far from being as easy as imagined, Wang Yanzheng is stubbornly defending Jianzhou, that is, he will not surrender, Quanzhou and Zhangzhou are also looking at Wang Yanzheng's horse, only Li Renda of Fuzhou is still interesting, but across Quanzhou and Jianzhou, Li Tang can't control Li Renda. When the army entered Fujian, it was like entering a quagmire, in a dilemma. The consumption of this military food is like running water, if you offend the Chu State again now, you will be attacked on both sides, and the consequences will be unimaginable. In Wei Cen's view, the war in Fujian is estimated to last until March and April next year, and in this year, Chu and Tang should still be reconciled.

Before the attack on Jianzhou, Feng Yansi and his party were arrogant, but now they have suffered a little, and these people are a little afraid of the enemy like a tiger, for fear of offending the Chu State. They just came out from their own point of view, but they didn't expect that Chu State was not comfortable at this time, in Lingnan, Ma Guangmeng was victorious, but it was only a small fight of 3 or 40,000 soldiers and horses, the reason was that the official road was rugged, the military food transportation was not smooth, and the consumption on the light road, Chu State was a little unbearable. Ma Yun has just become the king, whether the internal army fights or not, it must be rewarded, and when the people are in trouble, it is necessary to reduce some taxes in general, plus the pacification and rectification of ethnic minorities in the southwest, there are countless places to spend money, but there are very few inputs. Just like Han Xizai said, the south and the Han State are at odds, the Central Plains in the north is turbulent, and the Shu State in the west is closed and self-controlled, except for the Southern Tang Dynasty, there is no more trade and trade deals. Although as the saying goes: the lake is wide and ripe, and the world is full. But that's talking about the Ming and Qing dynasties, in the five dynasties, Jingchu was still only a marginal place, and the grain output was only enough for self-sufficiency. Fortunately, Ma Xifan really looted a lot of money, and the finances of the Chu State were basically stable.

Wei Cen said to Zhao Pu again and again: "Lord Zhao, don't be angry, this Han Xizai is just a scholarly and talking nonsense. Lord Zhao, don't listen to the nonsense. The reconciliation between Chu and Tang, benefiting the country and the people, and the act of trade will definitely not stop abruptly. This is guaranteed by patting the chest under it. ”

Zhao Pu glanced at Wei Cen, and then looked at Chang Mengxi, meaning to say: You are the envoy, you express your attitude.

Wei Cen also looked at Chang Mengxi anxiously, and nodded lightly with his head: You're a girl, hurry up and make a statement. Han Xizai fully raised the nature of the two-skinned face, and reprimanded Wei Cen as if he hadn't heard it, looked at Chang Mengxi, and shook his head slightly: Brother Chang, you have to resist, hold on, this Zhao Pu will naturally soften.

Chang Mengxi glanced at Wei and Han. Last night, Han Xizai carefully analyzed the situation facing Chu State. Looking at the appearance of the Chu State, the eighteen scholars who were originally in power, in addition to Tuoba Heng, Xu Zhongya, Liu Zhaoyu, and He Zhongju who also held important positions, Liao Boxtu retired, and Li Gao and Li Jie were killed, and the remaining few were all scholars and were completely excluded from the center of power, which shows that the replacement of the throne of Chu is by no means the official statement of the Chu State: the king of Chu is tired of government, and the prince Ma Yun has to take over the throne. Ten ** is that Ma Yun is unwilling to be lonely and killed his brother, in this way, this Chu country must also be troubled internally and externally, and I am afraid that he will not dare to turn his face with himself.

He stared at Zhao Pu deadly, this Zhao Pu smiled at the corner of his mouth, and he looked a little surprised, he hesitated a little, governing the big country into cooking Xiaoxian, or... It's better to be more stable. Chang Mengxi coughed lightly and said, "My king has always had high hopes for peace in Chu and Tang. However, there is a premise for this, and your country has so often reversed its word, ignoring the diplomatic relations between the two countries, and although my lord is kind, he will never let it go unchecked. ”

Obedient and obedient, although Chang Mengxi warned two sentences at the end, he still supported Wei Cen in his words. Zhao Pu smiled slightly, it seems that the information he received from Fujian and China just now is really good, this Li Tang is really stuck in the quagmire of Jianzhou. Over there, Han Xizai sighed slightly and stopped talking.

Seeing that the temptation was almost over, Zhao Pu took a sip of tea before saying: "When Jingnan was in difficulty, King Tang gave Jingnan great assistance, and my lord is very grateful for this. In fact, I, Wang Renhou, have always been true to my word. Speaking of this, Zhao Pu kept his mouth.

Wei Cen's eyes jumped, and he couldn't help but glance at Chang Mengxi, and said secretly in his heart: What does this mean? Could it be that the king of Chu was willing to cede Lianzhou to me in the Tang Dynasty? Happiness came so suddenly, Wei Cen couldn't believe his ears. Only Han Xizai sat quietly, waiting for Zhao Pu's next words.

Zhao Pu glanced at the three of them, looked embarrassed, and said, "Since my king agrees to this Lianzhou, we will definitely not pay the bill." However, the current situation must be clear to the three adults. At present, my king is newly established, and all kinds of waste are waiting to be revived. If you cede Lianzhou to your country at this time. Then our king will inevitably lose the hearts of the people, and from this point of view, this Lianzhou cannot be ceded to you now. ”

Wei Cen calmed down, there is still no good thing about pie in the sky. After all, as far as Ma Yun ascended the throne, Li Tang did not make any efforts except for spending some money. As long as Chu State gives Li Tang a step down, it will be the best.

Zhao Pu continued: "But. I, Da Chu, put faith and righteousness first, since I promised your country, even if it is difficult for me, I still want to give Li Tang a reward. ”

Chang Mengxi asked: "I don't know how your country wants to repay it?" ”

"Hehe, that's right. Five days ago, General Ma Guang, the provincial commander of Wuzhou Province, delivered good news that he had captured Wu Huaien, the envoy of Ningyuan Jiedu, in Rongzhou, Lingnan, and recovered Rong, Xiu, Lao and other prefectures and counties. In addition to coming out with a good report, General Ma Guangmeng also suggested to our lord to take advantage of the situation to capture Lingnan. General Ma explained in detail the situation of the Liu army in Lingnan, and the combat effectiveness turned out to be abnormal, and the Han lord Liu Hongxi was brutal and unkind, and appointed traitors to make Lingnan into a miasma. Our lord will punish the unkind with his will, and recover Lingnan. ”

Wei Cen's heart moved, could it be that Chu State wanted to cede the prefectures and counties of Lingnan to Li Tang?

Han Xizai sneered: "Your country doesn't want to paint cakes to satisfy hunger, and it is impossible to cede the prefectures and counties in Lingnan to us." I'm afraid I have to ask Han Zhutong if he agrees. ”

Zhao Pu laughed, stood up, took a map from the bookshelf on the side, unfolded it on the desk, and said with a smile: "Please come and take a look, this is the distribution map of the Han Kingdom." With this thing, my Great Chu will break through the Han Kingdom as if it were a snap. ”

Wei Cen and the other three hurriedly walked over to watch, but it was a map of the distribution of troops in the western counties of Lingnan, but they did not draw the situation near Xingwangfu. Seeing that there were some doubts in the eyes of these three people, Zhao Pu smiled and said: "The secret affairs of the military state can only be seen so much by the three adults." ”

Wei Cen asked on the side, "How is the battle of Rongzhou?" ”

Zhao Pu smiled and said: "The Han army is like a sheep's ear, General Ma Guangmeng's 10,000 army defeated the 50,000 army of Ningyuan Jiedu's envoy. ”

Wei Cen frowned slightly, not knowing what he was thinking.

Han Xizai asked: "Since Lingnan is so weak, I don't know when the King of Chu is going to send troops?" ”

"Next fall, or the spring of the year after, my lord will be conscripted." Seeing that the three of them were a little confused, Zhao Pu said embarrassedly: "Don't hide it, I, Wang Xinli, must be stable for a year or two before I can send troops." “

"Then when your country comes, where are you going to cede to my Tang Dynasty."

"Ceded Xiongzhou (present-day Nanxiong, Guangdong)."

Wei Cen suddenly said: "The Liu clan has been in Lingnan for many years, and although the soldiers and horses are weak, there are no less than 100,000 people. Although your country has a strong army, I am afraid that it will be difficult to defeat it for a while. Why don't you give us a copy of the distribution map of Lingnan's troops, and how about our two countries agree on a time and send troops at the same time to divide Lingnan equally? ”

Chang Mengxi and the others were stunned, but Zhao Pu was happy in his heart: What I was waiting for was your words.
