Chapter 160: Rushing to send envoys

The battle of Shuofang made Hexi, a remote force that originally lived in the northwest corner, appear in front of the whole world. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

It was not until this moment that countless people were stunned to find that Hexi had grown into a behemoth.

The forces in the northwest feel this most deeply.

Just after the New Year, not only did Tuyuhun, an old friend of Hexi, send envoys, but even hostile forces such as Western Qin, Nanliang, and Houliang also sent envoys to congratulate Hexi Shuofang on his great victory.

In addition, Later Qin Yao Chang and Former Qin Madeng also sent envoys to Guzang thousands of miles away.

And because Fu Deng and Yao Chang are at loggerheads, Wei Shuo, who dominates the side, naturally becomes the object of competition between the two sides.

First of all, Fu Deng sent an envoy to Feng Weishuo as a general, Da Dan Yu, and the king of Xiliang, and he also wanted to marry Princess Dongping as his wife.

Yao Chang was not to be outdone, and also named Weishuo as the pastor of Liangzhou, Zuo Danyu, and the king of Wuwei County.

……

After achieving Shuofang's victory, Wei Shuo's whole person was always immersed in excitement, looking at the sky, he felt extraordinarily blue.

Early in the morning of this day, after having breakfast with his wife and concubine, Wei Shuo hummed a little song and walked towards the Duhu Mansion, and the guards around him couldn't help but purse their lips and smile.

The weather was nice, not only was there no wind, but the sun was shining.

When he walked into the Metropolitan Protectorate, the subordinate officials of the Metropolitan Protectorate led by Song Miao had been waiting for a long time, and after everyone saluted, they began to report to Wei Shuo on political affairs.

"My lord, since the beginning of spring, the Metropolitan Protectorate has sent a total of 120 elite officials to Shuofang, which has temporarily met the demand."

"Well, good, well done!"

After Wei Shuo praised everyone, he emphasized again: "Ladies and gentlemen, Shuo reminds you again that in the next few years, the focus of Hexi will be to stabilize Shuofang, and we must increase support for Shuofang and strive to turn it into a solid territory in Hexi." ”

"The subordinates must obey the orders of the capital." Song Xuan, Zhang Zhan, Zong Chang and others should bow down.

"Dadu Protector, several missions have come from all over the world in recent days, how to deal with it, please ask Dadu to protect it."

"Which delegation is there?"

"Back to Daduhu, in addition to the Tuyuhun and Western Regions vassal states, which are the former Hexi subsidiary forces, hostile forces such as Southern Liang, Houliang, and Western Qin have sent envoys to come, and even the former Qin and Later Qin, which cannot be beaten by the eight poles, have also sent envoys to the court."

"Hey, I didn't expect Hexi to become so popular all of a sudden." Wei Shuo couldn't help laughing at himself.

"Hahaha, thanks to the wisdom of the lord, Hexi has been able to rise to become a hegemon in just a few years."

"Hey, you're overrated, how can Shuo be so powerful? Hexi can have today, and it is inseparable from your help. ”

Seeing that everyone began to praise each other again, Song Miao smiled helplessly and said, "Lord, everyone, I said can you stop praising each other?" To discuss how to receive the delegations, it is necessary to come up with a charter as soon as possible. ”

Wei Shuo touched his nose in embarrassment, and said busily: "The body industry is right, political affairs are important, political affairs are important." ”

Zong Kai stood up and analyzed: "Regardless of the rest of the envoys, just talk about Hou Qin and Former Qin, this time the two countries are vying to send envoys, just to win over Hexi for their use. ”

"It is useless to accept the good intentions of the party, only to see who gives the hat high, but to see who is most beneficial to Hexi to form an alliance with."

"Well, that makes sense."

"Yes, yes, that's exactly how it should be."

Zong Chang's remarks won the unanimous approval of everyone, Wei Shuo also bowed slightly, he looked at Zong Chang and asked, "I wish to hear the virtue and the wide." ”

"At the moment, Fu Yao is competing, and Fu Deng is obviously at a disadvantage."

"In case he is defeated, Yao Chang will definitely take all the Guanzhong, and Hou Qin will have no worries, whether it is Shuozhou or Liangzhou, it will be a great threat."

"On the contrary, if you form an alliance with Former Qin, you can firmly contain Yao Chang and make it impossible for him to compete with Hexi with all his might."

"What does Deguang mean by agreeing to an alliance with Later Qin?"

"Exactly! The minister suggested forming an alliance with Fu Deng, not only to contain Hou Qin, but also to consider the future lord's entry into the main pass. ”

"Oh? Didn't expect there to be a deeper reason? Please speak up, and I am willing to listen to you. ”

At this time, Wei Shuo became more interested, and even Song Xuan, Zhang Zhan, Shi Wei, Zhao Rou, Kan Chu and others also pricked up their ears to listen.

"The lord doesn't know that the former Qin Heavenly King Fu Jianren loved people, and supported the famous minister Wang Meng to govern Guanzhong for more than ten years, during which the two people were favored, I don't know how many, and the people of Guanzhong still remember the two."

"When Fu Yao competed in the early stage, why did Fu Deng win again and again? Among them, of course, Fu Deng is brave and good at fighting, but the minister thinks that Fu Jian's remaining shade also plays a big role. ”

"It's just that Fu Deng is good at tactical confrontation, but he is not good at strategic planning, and after Fu Jian's remaining shade is exhausted, the momentum will gradually weaken."

"Today's lord accepts the former Qin princess as a concubine, and when the east enters Guanzhong tomorrow, it will definitely make the people of Guanzhong less resistant."

"What? Take the princess as a concubine? What the hell is going on? ”

Originally, Wei Shuo was quite happy, but after listening to it, he realized that something was wrong, and a princess appeared.

"Huh? Don't you know? In order to win over Hexi, Fu Deng not only crowned you as the king of Xiliang, but also specially married his sister Princess Qin Dongping to the lord. ”

"I don't care if it's a king or not, it's just that it's not appropriate to be a relative, right?"

"What's wrong! If the lord does not agree to make peace, I am afraid that Fu Deng will not believe that Hexi has the sincerity to form an alliance. ”

"Forehead......" Wei Shuo was speechless for a moment, and he immediately understood that this was another political marriage.

……

The alliance with Hexi was another effort made by Fu Deng to eliminate the Later Qin.

Speaking of Fu Deng, Wei Shuo is no stranger, because he was called a perfect failure by later generations and became a tragic hero.

Although his tragedy was caused by himself, it did not prevent people from praising him.

Tragedy is often more shocking than comedy, as if countless people were moved to tears by the scene of Farewell My Concubine.

In terms of bloodline, compared with Fu Hong who surrendered to the Eastern Jin Dynasty, Fu Ding and Fu Shao of Yan after surrendering, the relationship between Fu Deng and Fu Jian is very different: barely can be counted as Fu Jian's grandson.

But it is such an inconspicuous figure, but in a very unfavorable situation in history, the Zhengshuo of the former Qin Dynasty has been stubbornly continued for nine years.

Fu Deng's personality is rough and honest, and he has read a lot of books.

When he became emperor, he set himself a firm goal: revenge.

The object of this revenge is the "king-killing" villain Yao Chang.

In order to take revenge, everyone has become a pawn in his hands, even if it is a cannibal.

It's a pity that Fu Deng has a very good set of tactics, and he is much worse in strategy, although he can win the battle, he can't always get cheap.

In the battle of the Great Realm the year before last, even his own queen Mao, two princes, and dozens of generals were all won by Yao Chang.

This battle completely changed the balance of strength between the two sides, coupled with the repeated times of Western Qin, which suddenly put Fu Deng almost into a desperate situation.

Even with the support of Yang Ding, the king of Qiu Chi, Fu Deng still gradually felt powerless.

At this time, Hexi unexpectedly entered Fu Deng's sight, in his opinion, Hexi was much stronger than Xiqin, and if he formed an alliance with him, he would save the decline in one fell swoop.

……

That night, Wei Shuo returned to the Wei Mansion, and as soon as he entered the door, he happened to see Meng Yao, who was fully armed, with a sword in his hand, sitting facing the door, with a ball of anger on his face.

Seeing this scene, how could Wei Shuo not understand? It must be the news of the former Qin princess and her relatives, which reached the ears of several wives and concubines.

It's just that I don't know which wife and concubine are in front of me?

However, according to Wei Shuo's guess, the most likely is the resourceful Yin E, and only she has the courage and strategy.

Wei Shuo showed a smiling face, pretending to be surprised, and hurriedly stepped forward to greet Meng Yao.

Sure enough, Meng Yao's city was shallow, and Wei Shuo found out the inside story in just a few words, which was roughly the same as his previous guess.

Yin E, who was observing from the sidelines, couldn't stand it anymore, so she had to go out in person, she asked calmly: "Dadu Hu accepted the princess as his wife today, will I wait for the three sisters to move out of the Wei Mansion tomorrow and find another place to live?" ”

Wei Shuo hurriedly apologized and said, "Dear madam, don't worry, I will never make a move to abandon my wretched wife. ”

"We have suffered so much together before, and we have experienced so many ups and downs, how can I bear to abandon you?"

"This princess of Dongping, to put it bluntly, is a tool for the former Qin Fudeng to win over Hexi to deal with Yao Chang, how can she shake the status of several ladies after she comes?"

Then Wei Shuo affectionately recalled the difficult days when the two of them shared weal and sorrow in Gaochang, and as he spoke, he moved Yin E to tears.

Yin E is not really reluctant to let Princess Dongping enter the mansion, but she is just worried that men like the new and hate the old.

Looking at the two beautiful concubines lying in his arms, Wei Shuo couldn't help but sigh with emotion, what a person whose environment has changed.

He is no longer the simple teenager he was at the beginning, and he can accept it with peace of mind without blushing or beating in the face of his relatives.
