Chapter 367: The First Negotiation

When Fan Li said it, this aid to Qin was just as a personal relationship with himself, Lin Yuyan was still skeptical, but when Fan Li said it was for his sister, that is, Zheng Dan's marriage, Lin Yuyan felt that everything was explained.

King Wu's request was only to reach an alliance between Wu and Chu, and afterwards he only occupied a Guiyang County, but this Fan Li was willing to help Qin obtain the land of Jiangbei, and it was not difficult to understand the human touch explained by Fan Li, although there were some incomprehensible details, but it was also irrelevant.

After Fan Li said goodbye, sure enough, not more than a few hours later, a small official informed the Chu envoy Qu Ping to return to the post station in Suiyi with a large number of Chu troops.

It turned out that Fan Li arranged for the henchman to deliberately mention Qu Ping after Qu Ping walked out of Suiyi for a few hours, and the envoy of Wu State was still staying in Suiyi, and he had traveled thousands of miles to come to the Qin State to negotiate an alliance, if he left easily, I am afraid that the King of Chu would also be under pressure from Wu State.

Moreover, what the prince of the Qin State Yan said was right, if there was no force to promote the alliance of the three kingdoms of Qin, Wu and Chu, I am afraid that Qu Ping, who had no merit of size, would be unable to move an inch in the Great Chu court, which was also moving in the same direction!

Therefore, Qu Ping led the Chu delegation to return to Suiyi Post Station again, but he didn't know that he had fallen into the calculations of Wu envoy Fan Li, and even completed one of the dispensable links for Fan Li.

Situ Bailihuai, who had been waiting in the county guard's mansion, was also relieved when he heard the news that the Chu envoy Qu Ping had led the Chu State delegation back, and immediately said to Lin Yuyan, who had already relaxed on the side: "Your Highness, since the envoy of the Chu State has returned, and the Wu envoy Fan Li has promised to come out with such a secret alliance, the old minister should return to Wancheng and discuss with the monarch to bring news to His Royal Highness. It should not be difficult to reach the conditions of the king. ”

Indeed, Duke Qin only took the entire territory of Nanjun north of Ganyukou in this battle of Great Qin, but he didn't expect that Fan Li actually wanted to assist Great Qin to obtain the entire land of Jiangbei, such an important news, Situ Baili Huai was already inaccurate, and even deliberately thought that Lin Yuyan was just the prince of Great Qin, and this matter still had to be handed over to Wancheng for disposal.

Lin Yuyan originally still had some hesitation, not that he should not allow Baili Huai to do this, but this Situ of Daqin is already an old minister who is over fifty years old, although Daqin has already built a straight road, but running back and forth is also a great consumption, but looking at Baili Huai's whole face full of red light, Lin Yuyan felt that he should be free from worrying.

After Baili Huai said goodbye, Lin Yuyan also sent some etiquette to this Chu envoy Qu Ping according to the face of the whole Chu State, and finally calmed down the dissatisfaction of the Chu envoy Qu Ping.

After another two days, Qu Ping and Fan Li both led important entourages to Lin Yuyan's county guard mansion, Qu Ping had never been to the county guard mansion, it seemed that he was a little surprised by the setting of the county guard mansion, but when I thought that this was the palace of the old Sui, it was not surprising, after all, the heritage of the old Sui was the head of the Han Shui Zhuji in the past, and the existence of the Chu State wrenching wrists, it is not strange to be able to build such a county guard mansion, who knows that in fact, this county guard mansion was later rebuilt by the craftsmen of Daqin.

Qu Ping's attitude was very tough, and he didn't even give up an inch of land, and directly assigned a piece of mountain land in Wuling to Qin State, and his tone did not have a trace of negotiable feelings.

The state of Qin also proposed to recover the entire territory of Jiangxia and Nanjun, even if most of the northern part of the Jiangbei region.

Qu Ping refused, and said: "The State of Chu once exterminated the State of Yan, and even used Yanling as the capital of the State of Chu, called Yan Ying, and the State of Qin as a friendly neighbor, why do you want to invade the land of the State of Chu!" ”

Lin Yuyan sneered: "If the State of Chu has the ability, why did the State of Jing seize the capital of Yingdu and move to Shouying?" In the past, the world was the world of Ji Zhou Tianzi, and the state of Chu was just a small country with a radius of fifty miles, and even the sacrifice needed to go to the country to steal a calf, but today it was the king and stood up, why, it is now a world of chaos, and it is also a world of great contention! ”

"You!" Qu Ping was angry, he really didn't expect that the dignified prince of Qin would be so uncourteous to expose the embarrassment of the former royal family of Chu State, in the period of Chu Jun hundreds of years ago, Chu State was indeed just a small Fang State, and the theft of the cattle of the State of Chu was still recorded in the classics of the State of Yan.

Seeing Qu Ping's angry eyes, Lin Yuyan deliberately sneered and said: "Why, does the Chu envoy still think that his old old arguments refute people, it's not that Daqin is insatiable, in fact, whether it is the State of Chu that did not investigate the cattle theft of Chu back then, or the neighbors of Chu State at the beginning, hasn't Chu State been annexed?" ”

Qu Ping clenched his fists and said: "The Qin people are so disrespectful to a certain Chu State, it seems that they are planning not to join the alliance, aren't they afraid that the King of Chu will carry the alliance of several countries to crusade against the Qin State on the charge of Qin colluding with the mob in Jingdi?!" ”

Qu Ping's words are already a naked threat, although it is on the territory of the Qin State, Qu Ping still said this sentence with full confidence, which shows how Qu Ping values the solid national strength of the Chu State standing behind him!

This almost touched Lin Yuyan's scales, looking at Qu Ping, he was also angry, and he still suppressed the anger in his heart at the moment, and said: "In the face of righteousness, how can a mere Chu State be allowed to play right and wrong, seven years ago, a certain Qin State and Jin State formed an alliance, and now they also respect Wei State as the leader of the alliance, if Chu State wants to crusade against Qin State, will Wei State and other Central Plains princes really sit idly by?" ”

Lin Yuyan slowly approached Qu Ping forward, and when he walked in front of Qu Ping, he stopped almost a few inches away, and said in a low voice coldly: "Although the King of Chu is a king, he is only a middle atomic lord after all, and my Great Qin is a duke given by Ji Zhou Tianzi, but when Ji Zhou Tianzi inspects the southern border of the Central Plains, it is not impossible to show that Ji Zhou Tianzi gave Jing a real vassal status, and then ally with Jing State, at that time, who will win and which will lose, isn't it clear that Chu envoys?" ”

Qu Ping was finally moved, seeing that Lin Yuyan couldn't speak for a long time, Fan Li, who had been silent next to him, also looked at Lin Yuyan in surprise, and finally participated in the role of peacemaker, persuading the tense Lin Yuyan and Qu Ping to discuss the covenant, and then it was delayed for a few days.

And a few days later, Lin Yuyan also received a letter from Wancheng in an urgent manner, which was written by Duke Qin himself, and it seemed to be a letter from home......
