Chapter 116: Qin's Envoy Meets the Audience
Scattered City.
Yingkang and the others had not yet arrived, and the monarchs and ministers of the scattered country quarreled together.
The reason is actually very simple, that is, winter is coming, and Rong Di should also come, but on the issue of how to fight the enemy, the monarchs and ministers of the scattered country once again clashed.
Because someone came back, things changed.
The Great Hall of Sanguo.
"Your Majesty, winter is coming, Fengrong is moving south, this year we ask the Qin people to guard the northern border for us, is it time to give people grain and grass, otherwise the Qin people will not be able to hold on!" As soon as the court meeting opened, Liu Tong came out to suggest to the scattered plates.
"Well---, you're right, this year, with the Qin people guarding the northern border for the widows, I also feel that the pressure has been reduced a lot!" Sanpanzi said happily, and then Sanpanzi turned to the ministers and asked, "Tell me, how should we give the Qin people food and grass?" How much to give? ”
After that, the scattered plate looked at Prime Minister Zhou Huan.
Zhou Huan was silent, a country has developed to the point where it needs others to help him guard the border, and he, the prime minister, also feels like a nest!
But this is the current scattered country, and it is difficult to invite others if you don't want to! He knew that once he asked someone to help him guard the border, a series of things would happen next, such as food, cities, land, weapons, etc., and so on.
But what can I do?
If you don't give it to others, you will be bullied by the enemy, or even perish; Give it, this endless will go down, and the scattered country will have to be dragged down.
Zhou Huan, who has been the prime minister for most of his life, really hurts!
Seeing that Zhou Huan didn't speak, Sanpanzi's face showed a little joy, after all, in this court, as long as Zhou Huan didn't speak, others could not take it seriously. Then he turned to the other ministers and said, "Let's talk about it." ”
Subsequently, a minister said: "Since the king has decided, let's do it according to the king's opinion." As for how to give and how much to give, we have no opinion, but it is up to the king to decide. ”
I like to listen to such words, that is, the countries are all widows, and what else can't be decided by themselves?
"This?" Sanpanzi hesitated for a moment, and then said to Liu Tong: "Aiqing, you have to worry a lot about this matter." ”
"The minister commands." Liu Tong replied.
Seeing that the matter was settled like this, at this moment, a person walked in, "Father and slow, the son has something to say." ”
"Is that you?" Sanpan looked at the visitor, "When did you come back?" ”
It turned out that the person who came was none other than Ji Zhao, the prince of Sanguo.
"As soon as the son returned to China, he heard that the monarch's father invited the Qin people to help us guard the border, and he entered the palace without reporting and asked the monarch's father to forgive me." Ji Zhao said.
"Why don't you study well in the royal family, why are you returning to China in such a hurry?" Loose plate said angrily.
It turned out that in order to let the prince learn more things, Sanpanzi specially sent him to the royal family to learn scriptures and classics and the experience of governing the country, but who knew that he didn't say any hello and gave it back by himself.
"Father, when the life and death of the scattered country is in danger, how can the child not come back?" Prince Zhao replied.
"Nonsense, I scatter the country, the country is rich and the people are strong, the monarch and the minister are united, and they are thriving, where is there any life and death crisis?" As soon as I heard it, I was not happy at the moment.
"Father, don't you see that the scattered country is on the verge of life and death?" Prince Zhao didn't flinch and said directly.
"It's nonsense, tell me how my scattered country is at the threshold of life and death." Just when Sanpanzi was excited about his ingenuity, Prince Zhao would say such a thing, isn't this a slap in the face?
"Father, my lords, it is the general trend for Rong Di to go south when winter comes, but have you ever thought that the Qin people would come to Guanzhong at this time?"
"The Qin people came to Guanzhong after chasing Dangsherong, and we ourselves asked others to help us guard the northern border. The people here know this better than you as a child. Without waiting for the ministers to answer, the loose plate said to himself.
"Yes, even if it is as the monarch said, doesn't the monarch feel that this matter is a bit too coincidental? Why did the Qin people come to pursue the enemy and come to Guanzhong when Rong Di was heading south? Isn't there a connection between that? ”
Under the questioning of Prince Zhao, the ministers present also felt that this matter was not so simple, "The prince is right, I also feel that it is a little strange for this Qin person to suddenly appear in Guanzhong, and now after Prince Zhao said this, I also feel that something is indeed wrong." ”
"That's right! The Qin people were originally barbarians in the west, and they were barbaric by nature, how could they live in such a ceremonial state as our Guanzhong? ”
......
Listening to the discussion of the ministers, Prince Zhao said a little proudly: "The Qin people have always had the ambition to advance eastward, and they have been struggling to find the right time, so they took the opportunity of pursuing Dangsherong to play tricks on us, and after obtaining our consent, they gained a foothold in our Longchuan, and their ambition was to be able to enter Guanzhong in the future." ”
Seeing that the palace was about to be controlled by Prince Zhao, Liu Tong looked at it and said, "May I ask Prince Zhao, you said that the Qin people came to our country in order to advance eastward. But I would like to ask, in addition to the Qin people who can ask for help from the current scattered country, what country can they rely on? ”
"Hmph---, after such a long period of study, I think that the current scattered countries do not need the help of any country at all, and must rely on our own strength." Prince Zhao continued, "Just imagine, at the beginning, our royal family blindly retreated to the surrounding Rong Di, and the result was that the surrounding Rong Di continued to advance to the hinterland of Guanzhong. However, since Lord Yin Jifu took charge of the royal army, he has used troops against Rong Di many times, but the surrounding Rong Di has retreated to the northwest one by one. Therefore, we should also learn from the royal family and take the initiative to attack Rong Di until they retreat from our Longchuan. Then we continued to advance northward until we brought our border to the area around the Longshan Mountains. ”
Needless to say, Prince Zhao's words are still very incendiary. At his instigation, the ministers present were more or less eager to try.
Seeing this, Liu Tong hurriedly said: "I want to ask the prince, for so many years, we have not used troops with Rong Di once or twice, and the result has been a failure without exception, and the land on the north bank of Weishui has been continuously lost. Please think about it, every monarch wants to cheer up and strengthen the country, but after repeated failures, he has to ask for foreign aid. ”
Liu Tong's meaning is very clear, not only your prince Zhao knows to strengthen the national strength and fight the enemy, any monarch wants the country to prosper under his rule, prosper day by day, and sweep all countries.
There is no way to disperse the country today, who can blame for the lack of strength?
"Hmph---, haven't tried, how do you know we won't win this time?" Prince Zhao said disdainfully.
"What if it fails?" Liu Tong asked.
"This?" Prince Zhao was stunned for a moment, "Hmph, no, as long as we work together, we will definitely be able to defeat all Rong Di." ”
"Arrogant, you are simply touching a stone with an egg, and a good country has to die after you toss it like this." Loose plate said angrily.
"Father, are you really frightened by the enemy? Why don't you hand over the army to me, and I'll fight Fengrong, and as long as we win, how about we drive the Qin people out of the scattered country? "Prince Zhao is young in the end, and said angrily.
"This?" When the prince said this, he didn't know what to say.
At this moment, the inner attendant shouted loudly from outside the hall: "Qin envoy to meet you." ”
If you don't come late, you won't come early, but at this time, the Qin envoy will come to see you?
All the ministers looked out of the hall with wide eyes.
