Chapter 25 Recommendation
After Emperor Jing and the others finished discussing, Chao Cuo suddenly said: "Prime Minister, there are offends in the past, and I am here to ask you for my guilt today, and now when the country is in danger, I am willing to go hand in hand with the Prime Minister to protect the Han Dynasty." ”
After Chao Cuo finished speaking, he got up and bowed deeply to Tao Qing, who was kneeling there, and the courtesy was ten times thoughtful.
This is also a method that Chao Buzhi gave him at the beginning - for show, he had been guilty of asking for guilt before, and now it is not impossible to make peace with another one.
Although Tao Qing wanted to kill Chao Cuo, but now that everyone was watching, and Emperor Jing was also sitting there, he had to get up and return the salute, and said with a smile: "Doctor Chao said that there is something wrong with the old man in the past, so I won't say that, and everything will look forward from today on." ”
Emperor Jing looked at his two ministers with satisfaction, if it weren't for the internal and external troubles at this time, he probably would have to set up a wine to celebrate.
At this time, Zhang Ou said: "Your Majesty, why did the Huns suddenly change their national policy and ask for peace with our Han Dynasty?" ”
Emperor Jing said: "This is also what I can't figure out, do other Qing families have ideas?" ”
Tao Qing pondered for a while when he heard this, and said slowly: "Your Majesty, the minister boldly guesses that it should be the Huns who are exploring the reality of our dynasty, of course, they are not ruled out····· There was some collusion with the Huns. ”
Who are "they"? It goes without saying that what I didn't see Tao Cheng looking at was Wu Chu's direction?
Emperor Jing said angrily: "They are still not the descendants of Gaozu? How dare you lead foreigners into the Central Plains? How dare that? How unreasonable! ”
The silent Chao Cuo suddenly said: "Your Majesty, the prince who becomes the prince and the thief who loses!" ”
"So you mean I'm a thief?" Emperor Jing asked faintly.
"The minister doesn't dare, but if His Majesty loses Chang'an, ·····" Chao Cuo didn't finish the rest of the words.
Emperor Jing was silent, obviously thinking, and then said with a long sigh: "Who can be an envoy?" ”
As soon as these words came out, it proved that Emperor Jing had understood the danger at this time, and he must first be at peace with the inside!
Otherwise, Wu Chu will rise up, the Huns will be on the border, and the court will inevitably be exhausted, even if Sun Wu is resurrected, he will not have such ability!
"Your Majesty, the minister thinks that the person who sent the Xiongnu must have courage and knowledge, and be loyal to His Majesty and the court, so that he can find out the truth of the Xiongnu." After Tao Qing finished speaking, his eyes stayed on Chao Cuo's body for a few moments, and then he gestured to Zhang Ou with his eyes, and his meaning was self-evident!
Zhang Ou understood, and was just about to speak, but Chao Cuo said directly: "Your Majesty, the minister sponsors a person, and this person will be competent." ”
Jing Diqi said: "Oh? I don't know who can get Aiqing's evaluation? ”
"The so-called external actions do not avoid hatred, and internal actions do not avoid relatives, this person is the former Wu State Minister Yuan An." Chao Wrong Justice Ling Ran said.
Yuan An's personality, including Emperor Jing, is very clear, he has a straightforward personality, talented, especially known for his courage and opinions, and he is even more outspoken, so it is very suitable to take Yuan Ang as an envoy.
Because Yuan Ang would never lose the prestige of the Han court because he cared about his life and death.
Emperor Jing nodded, and his gaze at Chao Cuo was full of praise, because who didn't know how Yuan Ang was dismissed from office?
Isn't it because of a contradiction with Chao Cuo?
As soon as Chao Cuo took office, the first thing he did was to send someone to investigate the property of Liu Bi, the king of Wu, who was received by Yuan Ang when he was the prime minister of Wu.
Now that Chao Cuo has put aside his personal grievances for the sake of family and country affairs, how can Emperor Jing not be happy in his heart?
And Tao Qing and Zhang Ou didn't think so, because when they were envoys, they sent the princess to make peace, and sent Qian Juan to the Huns, this errand is not good!
After a hundred years of history, there is everything to say, and Yuan An's reputation will stink at that time!
For example, at the end of the Ming Dynasty and the beginning of the Qing Dynasty, Hong Chengchou of Jin, who surrendered to Jin, did his best for his master's country, but he did his best to sleep and forget to eat!
But when the world is peaceful, during the so-called "perfect old man" year, Hong Chengchou, Zu Dashou and others, who have made great contributions to "I, Da Qing", will be compiled into the "Biography of Erchen", who will consider the scene at that time?
Lou Jing offered a peaceful policy, so that the Han Dynasty was able to recuperate, but a song "Hefan" has irony and helplessness.
"In the history of the Han family, the plan is to be friendly. The community is based on the Lord, and the safety is entrusted to the woman. How can you look jade, and you will be quiet. Underground thousand-year-old bones, who is an assistant minister. ”
There is also Li Hongzhang, who signed the treaty of loss of power and humiliation of the country, even if he has all kinds of justifications, he can't escape the infamy for thousands of years!
Maybe Tao Qing and the others couldn't think of so much, but it was only appropriate for Yuan Ang to do this, but it didn't have the slightest benefit to the prime minister's faction.
As a senior politician, Tao Qing will not tolerate this kind of thing happening, if it really can't be stopped, then everyone will finish playing and flip the table together.
So in line with the idea that I voted against the opponent and I voted for the opponent's against, Tao Qing pondered for a while and said, "Your Majesty, the minister thinks it's inappropriate. ”
"Oh? What's wrong with the prime minister? Jingdi Qi said.
"What kind of character Yuan Ang has, Your Majesty must know very well." After Tao Qing finished saying this, after seeing Emperor Jing nodded, he continued: "He has a straight temper and has a fight with Doctor Chao. ”
Chao Cuo's face suddenly darkened, you said Yuan Ang, what are you doing with me?
"Of course, Yuan Ang will not lose the prestige of the Han court, but he is afraid of angering the Huns, after all, he even dares to contradict His Majesty! What's more, he regarded them as the Huns who turned into foreign barbarians. Tao Qing said worriedly: "If there is really any mistake and ruins the country's plan, it will be too late to regret it!" ”
"What does Chao Qing think?" Emperor Jing asked.
Chao Cuo thought for a while and said: "The minister thinks that although Yuan An's personality is slightly flawed, he will inevitably focus on state affairs. ”
Emperor Jing nodded when he heard this, and said, "What Chao Qing said is very true, what does the prime minister think?" ”
Tao Qing was still a little worried and said: "Doctor Chao's words are reasonable, but I'm afraid... Alas! At such a juncture, it is better to be cautious, and the minister thinks that it is more appropriate to send another person who can speak well and be witty and resolute as his deputy. ”
Emperor Jing approvingly: "This is the words of Lao Cheng to seek the country!" Who does the prime minister think is more appropriate to be the deputy envoy? ”
"The person recommended by the minister has a close relationship with Dr. Chao, although the previous statement was not obvious, but the proximal time can be said to be famous throughout Chang'an, presumably Your Majesty has also heard of it!" The corners of Tao Qing's mouth flashed into an imperceptible smile.
Chao Cuo's heart couldn't help but tighten, and he was shocked: "Prime Minister, the wrong uncle is still young, how can he take on the responsibility of the country?" ”
"Doctor Chao, the so-called external move does not avoid hatred, internal move does not avoid relatives, Uncle Ling's quick wisdom, I'm afraid the Manchu Dynasty is incompetent, as for the young, when Ganluo Twelve was to enter Zhao, so that Qin State could get more than a dozen cities, Uncle Ling should be much bigger than Ganluo!" Tao Qing said with a smile.
"Doesn't Dr. Chao have confidence in Uncle Ling? Or is His Majesty no match for Qin Wangzheng, who dared to let a twelve-year-old boy envoy to Zhao State? Seeing that Chao was wrong, what else was going to be said, Zhang Ou mended the knife.
Can the envoy to the Xiongnu be the same as the envoy to the Zhao State? Back then, Qin was strong and Zhao was weak, so Ganluo had no fear, and now the Xiongnu are strong and the Han is weak, and he didn't say a word to kill the Han envoy, but he hasn't done it before?
But Chao Cuo can only be silent, what else can he say? Although Zhang Ou's words were not heavy, they were the last straw.
Emperor Jing looked at the people in the hall, as if he understood the intentions of the two groups.
But Emperor Jing didn't bother to pay attention to it, because what he thought in his heart was that I could give up a daughter, could you be reluctant to give up your best friend and Ji's father?
