Chapter 1220: The Feast

Zhao Hongrun originally thought that when he came to Xianyang again this time, Qin Wangyun would give him a dismount or something because of his provocative actions when he came to Xianyang City a while ago, but he didn't expect that Qin Wangyan's attitude was very calm. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

There was no malicious retaliation because of Zhao Hongrun's provocative actions when he was in Xianyang City, nor was he enthusiastic about Zhao Hongrun because Wei Qin was about to form an alliance, and he was calm with a bit of scrutiny, as if the old man looked at his son-in-law.

This made half of Zhao Hongrun's draft on the road meaningless, because Qin Wangyun didn't mean to trouble him at all, but just carefully examined him from beginning to end, which made Zhao Hongrun feel a creepy sense of discomfort.

At the banquet, Zhao Hongrun's seat was placed in the chief on the east side, and he sat at the same table with Du You, the Wei envoy who visited Qin, so that the two of them could talk privately in the banquet, after all, although Du You said that he was an envoy visiting Qin, but to promote the alliance between Wei and Qin, it was not enough for him alone, and it was necessary for Zhao Hongrun, the commander of the Wei West battlefield, to nod and agree, so that Qin and Wei could reach a consensus.

At the bottom of Zhao Hongrun, Qin Shaojun and Princess Yulong are sitting together, and the seats of the two of them are not to mention that many Wei people can't understand it, and even the Qin people can't understand it.

You must know that Qin Shaojun's identity is very special, she is not only a daughter, but also the nominal prince of the Qin State so far, so when I think of the matter of "marriage", it seems that Zhao Ran, Wei Ying, Weiyang Jun Yinghua, Yangquan Jun Yingyi, Lantian Jun Yingyu and others subconsciously think of this Shaojun.

But the identity of this young monarch is really a little embarrassing: if you start from the perspective of the prince of Qin, the young monarch should marry Princess Yulong, the princess of Wei, as his wife, and the two can be called a good match; But if you start from the perspective of Qin Shaojun's daughter and marry Wei Gongrun, the powerful prince of Wei, this will play the greatest role in promoting and promoting the alliance between Wei and Qin.

And both of these options have advantages and disadvantages for the Qin state.

For example, although the Xianyang nobles in this palace at this moment have more or less learned of the fact that Qin Shaojun may be their daughter, this matter has never been broken, and the people of the middle and lower classes of the Qin State have always believed that Qin Shaojun is the future king of their Qin State.

In this case, suddenly let Qin Shaojun change back to women's clothes and marry Ji Run, the son of Wei, I believe that at least more than half of the people in Qin State cannot accept this kind of thing.

Of course, it seems that the issue of marriage, Ying Hua, Zhao Ran, Wei Ying and others are guessing in their hearts, after all, marriage is only a means, and promoting the alliance between Wei and Qin is the goal.

As for whether Qin Shaojun will continue to pretend to be a man to marry Princess Yulong, or take off his men's clothes and put on women's clothes to marry Wei Gongzirun, this kind of thing is left for Qin Wangyun to think about for himself, anyway, it doesn't matter much.

At this time, Qin Wangyan was also thinking about this issue.

For Zhao Hongrun, Qin Wangyun was really satisfied, don't look at the hostility a while ago, he gritted his teeth with hatred for Zhao Hongrun, who almost forced him to a dead end, but now, in the case of or becoming Weng's son-in-law, Qin Wangyun is very satisfied with the talent of this son-in-law, maybe this is the so-called human ambivalence.

The only thing that made it difficult for King Qin was Qin Shaojun's true identity.

In order to stabilize the throne, King Qin asked Qin Shaojun, who was obviously his daughter, to pretend to be a man and set up as the prince, putting an end to the peeps of some ambitious people on the throne. At that time, he thought that after giving birth to an heir in the future, he would be able to set up another position as the prince, and as for Qin Shaojun, it would be enough to announce a fake news to the public at that time.

For example, if it is announced that Qin Shaojun has unfortunately died or something, he will hide it from the world and let this daughter become the princess of Qin again, anyway, the people of Qin will not know the real situation.

But the problem is that due to the low living conditions on the Qin side, several of Qin's sons have unfortunately died, so that up to now, Qin Shaojun's biggest and only younger brother has won the injury, and he is only eleven years old at present, and his body has been weak since he was a child.

It was precisely because of this worry that Qin Wangyun did not plan to take off the position of prince of Qin Shaojun, the eldest daughter, for the time being.

Because although Qin Shaojun is a daughter, he has been respected by the Qin people since he was a child because of his morality, if Qin Wangyun insists on taking away the eldest daughter's status as the prince, then he can only announce news similar to "Shaojun's death", and the result of this is that when Qin Shaojun's younger brother wins and dies of injury, Qin Wangyun has no way to let Qin Shaojun serve as the prince again.

In this way, the prince of Qin has no heirs to inherit the throne, which is very unfavorable for a country, because it will cause other royal families with the surname Ying to peep at the throne.

It was precisely because of the importance of the matter that King Qin did not dare to make a decision easily.

Qin Wang's silence made some Xianyang nobles in the hall have a misunderstanding, where did they know that Qin Wangyun was thinking about marriage, seeing that his own king was in the banquet with a deep face, and thought that he was deliberately putting on a face for Zhao Hongrun, so he had a mind for Zhao Hongrun.

To be honest, the Qin people generally had a very bad feeling about Zhao Hongrun, after all, Zhao Hongrun blocked the footsteps of the Qin people's eastward expedition three years ago, and today he led nearly 100,000 Wei troops to kill their Qin territory, causing immeasurable losses to the Qin state.

Among them, the greatest loss was none other than the aristocratic class of the Qin State, especially the Xianyang aristocracy.

After all, because of Zhao Hongrun's relationship, the war of Qin against Wei in recent years has hardly received any returns, and hundreds of thousands of young men have been sacrificed in vain.

This indignation made some Xianyang nobles couldn't help but open their mouths against Zhao Hongrun during the banquet.

No, immediately a Xianyang nobleman held a wine bottle and said to Zhao Hongrun: "Prince Ji Run, I heard that His Majesty the King of Wei of your country intends to make peace with my Great Qin, I don't know why your country suddenly made peace with Great Qin?" ”

Zhao Hongrun saw at a glance that the other party had bad intentions, and as soon as he was about to speak, he heard Du You, the envoy of his own country, beside him, say with a smile: "Naturally, it is for the lives of the two countries." …… Husband war, man-made disasters, hurt the country and hurt the people. Saying that, this Wei State Rite Department Shangshu began to talk eloquently, listing all kinds of tragedies caused by the war, and then from the origin of the Wei people and the Qin people of the Ji Zhao clan hundreds of years ago, to the contradictions between the Qin people and the Wei State today, he was quick and quick-witted, and his mouth was like a river, which made the Xianyang nobleman unable to interject.

Zhao Hongrun saw the Xianyang nobleman want to open his mouth several times, but was interrupted by Du You, and while he was amused in his heart, he admired Du You's eloquence - in such a short period of time, Balabala said a lot, and the other party was dizzy, this talent is really powerful.

What made Zhao Hongrun even more amused was that when he finished saying a lot, when Du You smiled and saluted the Xianyang nobleman, the other party actually raised his glass and took a sip of wine in a daze, obviously confused by Du You.

But then, Du You was not so relaxed, because those Xianyang nobles jumped out one after another and raised all kinds of questions, the most direct and acute of which was the topic of "how will Wei compensate for the losses of Qin".

It can be seen that those Xianyang nobles care most about interests.

Because it is an enemy of the people, even if it is a virtuous minister of the Wei State who is rich and rich like Du You, he is also said to be a little tired by those Xianyang nobles, so that in the cold winter wax moon, a layer of sweat oozes from his forehead.

Seeing this, Zhao Hongrun interjected coldly: "Compensation? Why should my Great Wei compensate your country for its losses? ”

Hearing Zhao Hongrun interjecting on the side, Du You secretly said in his heart that it was not good, you know, he rushed to speak, just to avoid letting His Royal Highness King Su next to him speak.

Who in Daliang doesn't know that the lips and tongue of this highness can anger people!

I remember that there were rumors at the beginning, saying that Zhao Tairu, Zhao Laituo, Zhao Laipu and others were scolded by His Royal Highness King Su and almost vomited blood on the spot.

Thinking of this, Du You gave His Royal Highness King Su beside him a look, after all, the matter of a good alliance, don't be yellow because of His Royal Highness King Su's lips and tongue.

However, Zhao Hongrun turned a blind eye to Du You's color, in his opinion, it was one thing to form an alliance with Qin Yu, and it was another thing to compensate the other party - what reason did he have for Wei to compensate Qin State?

"This king really doesn't understand, what is the reason for the compensation you are talking about? …… Is it because your army was defeated at the hands of this king three years ago? Or is your army still defeated at the hands of this king this year? ”

Zhao Hongrun shook the wine bottle in his hand, and said with a smile that made all the Qin people in the hall feel ashamed.

Among them, Weiyang Jun Yinghua and Yangquan Jun won the cymbals, even if they understood that Zhao Hongrun was not targeting them, they were also embarrassed at the moment, so they had to use bowing their heads and drinking as a cover.

At this time, the Xianyang nobleman was also flushed with anger, and said bluntly: "Ji Rungongzi! I, Great Qin, have not been defeated! ”

Zhao Hongrun glanced at the other party and said with a smile: "What Your Excellency said, was the 200,000 troops of your country wiped out in Sanchuan the year before last, or was it the time when the king was beaten to Xianyang City?" Or is it both? ”

"You!" The Xianyang nobleman was so angry that he almost vomited blood, but he was speechless.

Because the fact is just like what Zhao Hongrun said, no matter what, in these two battles of Wei and Qin, the Qin State was a fiasco-defeat-whether they Qin people admit it or not, this is the case.

After thinking about it, the Xianyang nobleman gritted his teeth and said: "Don't be complacent, if this battle continues, in the spring of the next year, Prince Ji Run may not be able to take the advantage?" ”

Zhao Hongrun pursed his lips disdainfully when he heard this: "Can you wait for the spring next year?" ”

Just one sentence made those Xianyang nobles half angry.

However, the strange thing is that he witnessed Zhao Hongrun and those Xianyang nobles arguing with each other, but Qin Wang Yan didn't seem to have the slightest intention of interfering.

From time to time, he looked at Zhao Hongrun, Qin Shaojun, and Princess Yulong, and then fell into deep thought.

Seeing this scene, it seemed that Zhao Ran and Wei Ying glanced at each other, and they understood in their hearts.

Obviously, the king of his own family may have been moved by the letter of the king of Wei and the envoy of Wei, Du You, the alliance of Qin and Wei is imperative, and the only thing that bothers the king of his own family at the moment is the problem of marriage.

A successful marriage can benefit both Qin and Wei.
