Chapter 783: Sima Wen's Letter

(); Zhao Chuan is like this, and everyone knows his temperament.

Su Muzhi thought for a while and said: "Now that our army is stopped in front of Hanyu Pass, in a short period of time, it will definitely not be able to break the enemy, and Yandi Water Conservancy has not yet been completed, at this time, it is acceptable to stop fighting, but Xunyang and Hengzhou must not be allowed to let it." ”

"Yes." Lu Chen nodded and said, "That's exactly what this king meant. ”

At this moment, Tang Man walked in, saluted Lu Chen, and said with a fist: "King, Lord Sima passed the book." ”

"What?" Lu Chen still thought that there was something wrong with his ears, Sima Wen was in Fengzhou now, and at this time, he sent a message, could it be that something big happened to the imperial court?

Thinking of this, he hurriedly stretched out his hand and said, "Take it to me." ”

Tang Man took out the letter and handed it to Lu Chen respectfully with both hands.

The latter took it, unfolded it and looked at it.

In the biography, Sima Wen first asked Lu Chen for peace, and then told Lu Chen that he had heard about the Qing Envoy's visit, and he was already on his way to Xunyang, hoping that the king could delay the Qing Envoy for a few days, and he had something important to report in person.

After Lu Chen finished reading it, his brows furrowed slightly.

Seeing this, Xiao Wang couldn't help but ask, "King, but what happened to the capital?" ”

"Nothing." Lu Chen waved his hand slightly, and while putting away the letter, he also looked at several generals and said, "When the Qing envoy comes, the officers and soldiers of our army must cheer up." ”

"Wechen understands!" Several people said in unison.

A few days later, Shang arrived at Hanyu Pass, where he first negotiated with Yue Heng before heading to the Feng army camp.

When he arrived, Lu Chen did not meet him directly, but asked Xiao Wang to accompany him.

In the barracks, three steps and one post, five steps and one sentry, the sound of drills is endless, and the merchants have traveled all the way, and they can't help but be secretly frightened, and after seeing him, Xiao Wang also bowed his hands, and said with a smile: "In Xia Xiao Wang, I have been welcoming the messenger here for a long time." ”

"Ah, it turned out to be Prime Minister Xiao Cheng." Shang Yuan also hurriedly arched his hand.

Even if Fengqing is in a state of war now, at that time, pay attention to etiquette, in the Central Plains, for the envoys of other countries, Xiao Wang naturally treats each other politely, and can't help but say: "The envoy is tired of traveling and driving, and please speak in the tent." ”

"Xiao Cheng, please." Shang Yu was also polite.

After entering the tent, the two of them sat down separately, and after the guards brought the wine and food, Shang Yu also said straight to the point: "Prime Minister Xiao, I don't know where His Royal Highness the Wind King is now?" ”

"Oh, my king has been busy with military affairs recently, and I am afraid that he will not have time to be separated, and I hope that the envoy will be calm and not impatient, and rest here for two days, and after my king is busy, he will come to meet him." Xiao Wang said.

In Shang Yuan's opinion, although the Wind King was suspected of deliberately hanging himself, Xiao Wangdu said so, and he had no choice but to reply: "Okay, wait below." ”

"Come, have a drink, this wine can relieve fatigue." Xiao Wangdun said.

After a meal of wine and food, Shang Yu was also arranged to a tent, but in the wind camp, there were secrets everywhere, he wanted to go shopping, but every few steps, he would be stopped by the halberd guards reaching out, and finally had no choice but to return to the tent to rest.

On the first day, Lu Chen used the busy military affairs as an excuse, and Shang Yu could understand, but on the second day, Lu Chen still did not meet, and Shang Yu couldn't sit still, and on the third day, there was still no trace of the Wind King.

This guy Shang Yuan has a very hard head, and he has never been afraid of death when he goes to other countries, and his complaints soon reached Lu Chen's ears, and after the latter heard it, he was almost laughed at angrily, and he had no choice but to meet him on the fourth day.

At this time, Lu Chen was walking around the barracks with Shang Yuan, followed by Xiao Wang and others.

He walked unhurriedly and said with a smile: "Two days ago, this king was indeed busy with military affairs, and he neglected the envoy a little, which is the fault of the king, and I hope the envoy will not take it to heart." ”

He is a king, he can say that, even if Shang Yuan has a big temper, he doesn't dare to be presumptuous anymore, and when he heard this, he had to say: "His Royal Highness the Wind King personally manages military affairs, and he does everything himself, and he admires him." ”

As he spoke, his heart moved, and he couldn't help but start to look carefully at the camp of the Wind Army, look here, look there, thieves and thieves, looking left and right.

Seeing this, Lu Chen chuckled lightly and said indifferently: "Lord Shang, you are not observing the defense of our military camp and spying on the military situation in the name of the envoy, right?" ”

Hearing this, Shang Yuan was startled, quickly withdrew his gaze, and said with a dry smile: "Hehe, His Royal Highness the Wind King is laughing." ”

But he said so, but he did have this idea in his heart, and now that he has arrived at the Fengjun camp, if he can write down the general situation here one by one, and then report it to Yue Heng at that time, it will undoubtedly be an important piece of information.

But his careful thinking, where can he hide it from Lu Chen, the latter smiled unabated, and said with some playfulness: "Everything that Lord Shang sees now, maybe this king deliberately let you see it, aren't you afraid that when the time comes, lie about the military situation and make Yue Heng miscalculate?" ”

"This ......" Shang Yu first knotted, and then suddenly reacted again, and hurriedly turned on a straight face, and said: "I came here this time on behalf of my king, and I am here to discuss the truce with His Royal Highness the Wind King, as for the rest, I don't have that mind." ”

"Haha" Lu Chen heard this, and smiled heartily, while Shang Yu was red-faced.

After the laughter, Lu Chen stepped into the topic and said, "Okay, Lord Shang, let's directly explain the meaning of Brother Qingwang." ”

Shang Yuan's face was still a little hot, and he calmed his mind for a while, and then said: "Your Highness, what my king means is that if Your Highness can return Xunyang and Hengzhou to my country, then my country is willing to stop fighting." ”

"What if the king says no?" Lu Chen glanced at him and sneered: "This war was launched by Qingguo, you will fight when you say you will fight, and stop when you say stop, this king has not agreed yet!" ”

When Shang Yuan heard this, he hurriedly said: "His Royal Highness the Wind King, Qingguo and Fengguo are both powerful countries, respectively in the north and south of the empire, if the two countries fight, the war will not stop, not only will the blood flow into a river, but the suffering can only be the people of Limin!" God has the virtue of a good life, and my king is even more merciful, I don't want to see the people of Li suffer, and I hope that His Royal Highness can also put the common people in the world first. ”

His words are high-sounding! After hearing this, Lu Chen couldn't help but sneer.

Shang Yuan then said: "Of course, for this war, my country is also willing to make some compensation afterwards. ”

As soon as he finished saying this, without waiting for Lu Chen to answer, Zhao Chuan behind him was already angry and said, "No way!" Qingguo wants to go back to Xunyang and Hengzhou, so rely on your ability to get it! ”
