Chapter 460: Flickering is an art

Fooling people seems simple, but it is still a little difficult to do, after all, not everyone is as smart as Zhao Benshan, and not everyone is as good as Fan Wei.

And the two main ministers of the Qin people, Yingzhao and Zhao Boyu, are not the kind of people who can fool people too much.

Walking out of the palace, Zhao Boyu asked Yingzhao: "Xiangguo, what about me, I speak directly, it is too difficult for the king to let me do these things, how can we fool the envoys of these two people?" ”

Although they are all real people, Yingzhao is an official who has been engaged in administrative logistics work and foreign affairs for a long time, and Zhao Boyuan is just a military cadre.

With years of experience, Yingzhao said to Zhao Boyu: "This matter is complicated and complicated, and if it is not complicated, it is actually very simple." Later, the two of us will go together to greet the envoy of Gongzi Yuchen, and when we are halfway through the meal, let the next person come to invite you, and say that you still have something to do. Then you don't use it, and I'll take care of the rest. Although we won't go through it, we must let the messenger of the prince's remnants know that you have gone to deal with another person, so that the matter will be done. ”

It's that simple?

Zhao Boyu's eyes widened when he heard this: "It's that simple? ”

"Yes, it's that simple." Yingzhao said affirmatively.

"If I'm just leaving, people will know that I'm dealing with another envoy?"

"After you leave, it will be up to me to speak, and I will let them know that you are on your way to meet another envoy."

"Right, I'll just say if it's that simple, then what else do I tell you to do?" Zhao Boyu smiled, "As long as you don't let me deal with those difficult envoys." ”

According to Yingzhao's train of thought, the two of them soon came to the Yuguo Station, and the envoy of Gongzi Yuchen had been waiting here for a long time.

"I have some things to deal with, and I'm really sorry to keep your envoy waiting for a long time." After seeing the envoy of Gongzi Yuchen, Prime Minister Yingzhao said.

"Who is this?" The envoy of Gongzi's remnants is also the first time to come to the kingdom of Yu, of course, it is not a blessing.

Zhao Boyu hurriedly explained: "This is our Xiangguo Yingzhao. ”

"Oh--, it turned out to be Xiangguo, the little envoy was polite." With that, the envoy of Gongzi Yuchen bent down deeply and said.

"Your envoy is polite, cover the country to prepare a banquet, welcome your envoy, and please appreciate your face." After that, Yingzhao and Zhao Boyu invited the envoy of Gongzi Yuchen to attend the banquet directly at the Yuguo Post House.

During the banquet, although Prime Minister Yingzhao had long known the intention of the envoy, he still routinely asked the envoy of the prince's remaining ministers: "I don't know what is the important matter for your envoy to come to cover the country?" ”

The envoy of Gongzi Yuchen smiled: "It's better to talk about such an important matter after meeting your lord." ”

"Oh--, I see. However, the fact that my lord was able to entrust me and Sima Boyu to come and greet the envoy has actually given us the privilege of dealing with this matter. I also hope that your envoy will be able to tell him directly. Ying Zhao is the person who has dealt with these people, and he knows very well that the reason why Ying Kang is reluctant to meet with these envoys is of course his considerations.

As the king of a country, Yingkang doesn't want to bargain directly with these envoys, so it's better to leave this kind of thing to the ministers.

After listening to this, the envoy understood the meaning of the words, so he said: "Xiangguo should know that since the death of the Heavenly Palace, today has actually been ownerless. As the descendant of the former king and the brother of the Son of Heaven, my son-in-law has unique inheritance conditions. In order to show the importance of the Qin people, my son-in-law specially ordered me to come to inform your country and ask your country to help my son-in-law. Of course, there are benefits to this kind of help. ”

"Oh---, I see." Prime Minister Yingzhao said, "May I ask your envoy, if our Qin people help you, I don't know what benefits your son-in-law can give us?" ”

After listening to Yingzhao's words, the envoy of Gongzi Yuchen hesitated for a moment and said, "Is it good?" That's a lot, the current Qin people have been named Sanbo by the first king, but at this time, if you can help me, my son-in-law will consider it in the matter of the title. ”

"This is equivalent to saying that if my Qin people can help you, your son will be able to elevate our title. Is there anything better than that? For example, what about expanding the territory and crowning the monarch of the kingdom of Qiu? Now Yingzhao has also said the requirements of the Qin people.

Expand your territory?

Crowning the Qin people as the monarch of the Kingdom of Qiu?

This Qin people's appetite is inevitably too great.

When the envoy of Gongzi Yuchen heard this, he was stunned for a moment, "Is this this?" I dare not say. Then the envoy of Gongzi Yuchen said with a wicked smile: "Xiangguo, if I say something that shouldn't be said, don't be angry after you hear it!" ”

Ying Zhao smiled: "It doesn't hurt for your envoy to say it directly. ”

"You Qin people were originally Xizhui horsemen, after coming to Guanzhong, it is already very good to be able to wait until the first king is rewarded as Sanbo, if you want to be crowned as the king of the kingdom of Qiu, this is a bit too much! Don't say that my son-in-law won't agree, no one will agree to this. ”

"You--" As soon as Zhao Boyu heard this, he immediately became angry, and pointed to the envoy of Gongzi Yuchen: "What's wrong with my Qin people, what's wrong with the horseman, if it weren't for our Qin people coming to Guanzhong and helping the royal family block Rong Di's invasion, maybe you princes and ministers would have been wiped out by Rong Di a long time ago." When it comes to today, you still have prejudices against us and other Qin people, which is unbearable. ”

"Sima Mo is going to be angry. Although the envoy's words were inappropriate, what he said was also true. Then Yingzhao said to the envoy of Gongzi Yuchen: "But I still have to remind your envoy to remember one thing, although it is still the world of the royal family today, it is also time to speak with strength." No matter how high the title, no matter how loud the voice, no matter how wide the influence, if there is no military strength, everything will be in vain. At present, our Qin people have tens of thousands of troops and own the largest piece of land in central and western Guan. The impact is significant. If the envoys still hold on to their past views on the Qin people, I don't think there is any need for us to continue talking. ”

Seeing this, the envoy of Gongzi Yuchen hurriedly replied: "Xiangguo and Sima Mo are going to be angry, I just told the truth, if I really bumped into the two, please forgive me." As for the conditions put forward by the two of you, I will report to my son-in-law for careful consideration. ”

"Okay, okay, I propose that we wait for a bottle." So Yingzhao proposed.

"Okay, good, I'll drink, I'll drink." The envoy of the prince's remnants took the wine bottle and drank it in one gulp.

At this time, the post house commander walked in and said to Sima Boyu: "Tell Sima, Shen Guo is here, please ask Sima to come over and speak." ”

Shen Guo is here?

The envoy of Gongzi Yuchen opened his eyes and glanced at the prime minister's Yingzhao, and then looked at Sima Boyu. He knew very well that Shen Guo represented the crown prince Ji Yijiu, and he knew what Shen Guo was doing at this time.

Seeing this, Prime Minister Yingzhao smiled and said to Sima Boyu: "If you still have something to do, go first, and I will handle the matter here." ”

So Zhao Boyu got up and said to the envoy of Gongzi Yuchen: "I still have some things here, please bear with me and say goodbye."

With that, Sima Boyu walked out of the room.

At this time, the face of the envoy of Gongzi Yuchen was red and white, and he was extremely embarrassed.
