"You're going?" Shi Hu was a little surprised. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

"That's right! Erchen go! ”

Although Shi Shi had no bottom in his heart at all, he was not stupid enough to give up this important errand to King Qing Shi Zun.

"Your Majesty, Weichen thinks it's inappropriate! Envoy to Hexi, His Royal Highness King Yan is really not the right person! "You Jian is unrelenting.

"Lord You, then why do you think it is appropriate for His Royal Highness King Qing to go down?" Zhang Bao asked rhetorically.

"The Qiang people and the Di people are very fierce, dare to ask His Royal Highness King Yan, you have never gone into battle to kill the enemy, how can you suppress them? On the other hand, His Royal Highness King Qing, who has been stationed in the northwest for many years, has fought dozens of battles with the Huns, Qiang people, and Di people, and is brave and strategic, so Weichen thinks that only His Royal Highness King Qing can stabilize the Qiang people and the Di people. ”

"Lord You's words are wrong, Your Majesty is sending someone to Hexi, not to attack Hexi! Brave and strategic? Hehehehe, Lord You, have you forgotten the fiasco suffered by His Royal Highness King Qing when he led his troops against the Xiongnu Shan Yu some time ago? ”

"You ......"

"And! Mu Du, the leader of the Qiang tribe, was cut off by King Qing alive, presumably Mu Du hated King Qing to the core, right? Let King Qing take Mudu to Hexi, I think it would be good if the Qiang people didn't break King Qing's body into ten thousand pieces, and would they talk to him about something else? Zhang Bao said again.

You Jian was speechless by Zhang Bao's words, and his face was very ugly.

"Your Majesty, Weichen thinks that anyone can go to this matter, but he can't let His Royal Highness King Qing go down! Otherwise, I'm afraid it will backfire! Zhang Bao said to Shi Hu.

Shi Hu looked at Gao Shangzhi, and Gao Shangzhi hurriedly saluted and said, "Eh...... Your Majesty, the old minister also thinks that it is indeed inappropriate to let His Royal Highness King Qing go down in this matter. As far as the old minister knows, Mu Du hated His Royal Highness King Qing to the core, and under such circumstances, letting King Qing send an envoy to Hexi was afraid that it would intensify the contradiction between the Qiang people and the Zhao State......"

"Father, the son is willing to ask for an envoy to Hexi! The ninth brother is now about to coordinate the matter of Li Cheng and Yunzhong's Tuntian, so let the sons and daughters share their worries for their father. ”

"Hmm......" Shi Hu nodded slightly and asked, "Tell me, who should handle this matter?" ”

As soon as Shi Hu's words fell, You Jian was about to stand up and speak: "Your Majesty ......"

"Your Majesty! The minister thought that His Royal Highness King Yan was brave and loyal, and he was the prince of Zhao State, and he sent an envoy to Hexi to subdue the Qiang and Di people, which was also enough to give them face, and also showed His Majesty's grace, so the errand of sending an envoy to Hexi could be carried out by His Royal Highness King Yan. Zhang Bao hurriedly interrupted You Jian and said first.

You Jian saw Zhang Bao like this, and he was dissatisfied, but he couldn't attack, so he said: "Your Majesty, in addition to His Royal Highness King Yan and His Royal Highness King Qing, Weichen has a more suitable candidate." ”

"Who?" Shi Hu asked.

"The entire Zhao State, in terms of being able to speak well and be eloquent, and in terms of wisdom and bravery, Lord Liu of the household department is the first. His Royal Highness King Yan is His Majesty's best prince, and sending His Royal Highness King Yan down, on the surface, is to give enough face to the Qiang and Di people, but it is difficult to guarantee that they will not feel that our Zhao State is afraid of them, so they sent the most favored prince of Zhao State. Having said that, Lord Liu is a relative of the emperor, and sending Lord Liu not only gives face to the Qiang and Di clans, but also Lord Liu's three-inch incorruptible tongue will definitely convince the Qiang and Di clans, so Weichen thinks that it is more appropriate to send Lord Liu to do this errand. You Jian was in a hurry and pushed Liu Yuanzhi out.

I have to admit that You Jian's idea of a flash of inspiration was indeed a bit clever, which made Shi Hu hesitate immediately.

"Hey! That's a good idea! Your Majesty! Lao Chen also thinks that it is most suitable for Lord Liu to go! Noble unexpectedly spoke in agreement.

Seeing this situation, Zhang Bao and Shi Shi didn't want to argue too much, and the remaining few people saw that Shi Shi and Zhang Bao didn't speak, and they all stood silently on the side, waiting for Shi Hu to make a decision.

"Liu Yuanzhi!" Shi Hu shouted with a frown.

Liu Yuanzhi hurriedly stood up, saluted respectfully and said, "Weichen is here." ”

"You Jian proposed to let you go just now, can you get this errand done?" Shi Hu asked.

Shi Hu originally just planned to see Liu Yuanzhi's attitude, but as soon as he finished speaking, Liu Yuanzhi knelt on the ground, kowtowed and said: "Weichen will not disgrace his mission, subdue the Qiang and Di clans, and raise the national prestige of my Zhao country!" ”

Shi Hu was stunned, Liu Yuanzhi's kneeling was equivalent to cutting off Shi Hu's other thoughts, so he could only arrange for him to go.

"In that case, then the envoy to Hexi, let you go!" It is difficult for Shi Hu to ride a tiger, so he can only agree.

"Thank you, Your Majesty for your trust!" Liu Yuanzhi saluted and said.

Shi Hu looked at Shi Shi with some embarrassment, and said in a slightly comforting tone: "Okay, second brother, you don't have any ideas about this matter!" Liu Yuanzhi is erudite and talented, and he is loyal to Zhao Guo, it is indeed more appropriate for him to go, you can help me in Yecheng! ”

"Father is wise! The sons always listen to their father's arrangement, and there is no complaint! "Shi Shi is also very acquainted.

"That's it!" Shi Hu nodded with satisfaction and said to Liu Yuanzhi: "In this case, Liu Yuanzhi, I will order you to send an envoy to the Qiang and Di clans next month, and then I will let the guerrilla general Shi Min go with you!" ”

"Next month?" Liu Yuanzhi was stunned for a moment.

"Of course, what questions do you have?"

"Your Majesty, as far as Weichen knows, since His Royal Highness King Qing captured Mudu, the leader of the Qiang tribe, now the Qiang and Xiongnu are frequently sending envoys to each other. In view of the fact that the Xiongnu have recently sent people to spy on the border of our Zhao State, Weichen believes that it is urgent to subdue the Qiang and Di tribes, so as not to completely encircle them by the Xiongnu, and then it will be difficult to let them return to the Zhao State! ”

Shi Hu thought about it carefully, Liu Yuanzhi's words were not unreasonable, and at this moment, You Jian said again: "Your Majesty, what Lord Liu said is reasonable, the current situation facing Zhao Guo can not be said to be not critical, this is the same as marching and fighting, the situation waits for no one, and it will be chaotic if it is constantly interrupted!" His Majesty still has to make arrangements as soon as possible for the matter of sending an envoy to Hexi. ”

After listening to You Jian and Liu Yuanzhi's words, Shi Hu pondered for a long time, and everyone didn't dare to disturb, so they could only stand aside silently. At this moment, You Jian's eyes showed a smug expression, and Zhang Bao looked at him with some resentment, if You Jian hadn't been in the way, how could the errand of the envoy to Hexi fall on Liu Yuanzhi?

"Since this is the case, then according to what Liu Yuanzhi said, go to this matter as soon as possible!" Shi Hu finally nodded.

"Father, my son has something to say!" Shi Shi said suddenly.

"What else do you have to do?"

"Back to my father, just now you said that you want Xiao Min to go with you, I don't know if it's true or not?"

"For this matter, I have already made arrangements in my heart, but it is difficult to decide who will be this lobbyist for a while, and since it has been decided to let Liu Yuanzhi go today, then this matter has been decided!"

"Father, the son thinks it's inappropriate!"

"Oh? What's wrong? Shi Hu was a little puzzled.

"Xiao Min has just taken over the position of commander of the patrol battalion, and he has not yet settled down the patrol battalion, so I am afraid it is a little inappropriate to send him out at this time. The patrol battalion is responsible for defending Yecheng, and the former commander Liu Rong was sentenced to death by his father for collaborating with the enemy and treason. Moreover, with Lord Liu's ingenuity and unparalleled eloquence, Xiao Min's going will not play any role, so Erchen thinks that it is enough for Lord Liu to go to Hexi alone! ”

Zhang Bao on the side immediately understood the intention of Shi Shi's words, and hurriedly echoed: "Your Majesty, what His Royal Highness King Yan said is reasonable, the patrol camp can't be chaotic!" Although Min Gongzi is young, he has the thunderous means of Xihuahou, and he will definitely be able to clean up the people of the patrol battalion. Lord Liu is resourceful, and letting Min Gongzi accompany him is really doing more harm than good! I hope Your Majesty thinks twice! ”

"Your Majesty, Weichen has a different opinion!" You Jian stood up and said: "Lord Liu is indeed resourceful, but to deal with the Qiang and Di clans, you can't just rely on words, when necessary, you should take a sword and reason with them, this is the combination of grace and power!" ”

"You-sama! In front of Your Majesty, why do I think that what you are talking is simply nonsense? Zhang Bao scoffed.

"Master Zhang, what do you mean by that! Everything I say in front of Your Majesty is from the bottom of my heart, how can it be nonsense! Tell me today! You Jian was a little annoyed.

"Who told Your Majesty just now that it must be a matter of course to send an envoy to Hexi and subdue the Qiang and Qiang tribes, and it must be a matter of course for Lord Liu to go? Now he said that it didn't work to rely on Lord Liu's resourcefulness alone, so many colleagues are here, everyone heard it just now! You're not talking nonsense! "Zhang Bao is very witty, he sees the needles and sees the blood in every word.

"Zhang Bao! You don't want to take it out of context to confuse the public! You Jian scolded.

"Am I confusing the public or are you deceiving the king! Let everyone judge! Zhang Bao was undaunted.

"You ......"
