Chapter 758: Lobbying
Qu Xiaocang approached Qi Ning's side and asked softly, "Master Hou, the emperor decreed that you should be secretly interrogated, I don't know..... Is it necessary to be a lowly observer? ”
Qi Ning said: "Actually, the emperor just asked Ben Hou and Prince Yu to chat casually, if Captain Qu is busy with official business, he can go on an errand first." ”
Qu Xiaocang was so smart that he naturally understood what Qi Ning meant, and said, "Master Hou, the humble position is waiting on the other side of the Jiugong Pool. And without further ado, he departed and went to the other side.
Qi Ning then turned to the door of the house, gently pushed it open, and entered the house, the house was simple and simple, Qi Ning looked at Prince Yu, approached the past and arched his hand: "Lord Wang!" ”
Only then did Prince Yu turn his head and glance at Qi Ning, but he looked calm and calm, and said with a smile: "This king has been waiting here for many days, and no one has ever come to interrogate, and today is finally here." Carefully close the scroll in his hand, look at it is a book lover, put it on the table next to the rocking chair, then get up, and said: "There is tea on the table, brocade clothes can be poured by themselves, this king is a prisoner under the steps, here this king is not the master, so it is not a neglect of guests." ”
Qi Ning smiled and said, "The prince doesn't seem to have suffered much grievances here. ”
"It's nothing if you are wronged or not." Prince Yu was dressed in civilian clothes, looking very relaxed, walked to the edge of the bookshelf, and seemed to be checking the collection of books with his hands behind his back: "Jinyihou, did the returning emperor let you bring your will?" I don't know how to send this king. ”
"Master Hou is too worried." Qi Ning sat down on the chair, "Actually, the emperor was worried that the prince would not be able to adapt here, so he sent me to visit." ”
"Visit?" Prince Yu turned around, stroked his long beard, and said with a smile: "The Southern Poetry Rite has not disappeared either. He slowly walked to a chair opposite Qi Ning, sat down slowly, and said, "I don't know when your country will send troops?" The people of Eastern Qi want to take advantage of the fire to rob, but unfortunately they don't have that much courage, so they naturally want to drag your Southern Chu State into the army together. ”
Qi Ning was stunned for a moment, and then smiled: "When does the prince think we should send troops?" ”
"The people of Dongqi naturally think that the sooner the better." Prince Yu smiled faintly and said: "As long as Maling Mountain is in the hands of my Han, they will not be able to live in peace for a day." Leaning back in his chair, he stroked his beard and said, "But if the emperor of your country is smart, he may not be in a hurry to send troops." ”
"Oh?" Qi Ning got up, took the teacup in the past, picked up the teapot and poured a cup of tea, walked to Prince Yu with the teacup in both hands, and handed the teacup over, Prince Yu was stunned, and soon a smile appeared in his eyes, but he also took it with both hands, Qi Ning turned around and sat down, and said, "Why did the prince say that?" ”
"You and I have fought for three years, killed 1,000 enemies, and lost 800 ourselves, neither my Han nor your Nanchu have taken advantage." Prince Yu took a sip of tea, then put it down, and said: "In the past few years, both countries have spent a lot of manpower and material resources, and the treasury of your country must be a little stretched, right?" ”
Qi Ning smiled: "It seems that the same is true of the Han Kingdom. ”
Prince Yu sighed: "That's true, maybe my Han didn't have this civil strife, and the treasury couldn't reach your Nanchu." He smiled slightly and said, "Jinyihou, the current treasury of your Chu State can no longer withstand a protracted war. ”
"The prince thinks the war will be protracted?"
Prince Yu smiled faintly: "Although the Han Kingdom is chaotic
