Chapter 320: Preparation with both hands
Since Yang Guang was allowed to listen to politics with his class a few months ago, one of the biggest strengths he has learned from his father, Yang Jian, is that he must be calm in case of trouble, and he must not be in a hurry to show his attitude in public.

Therefore, although Zhang Wei reversed his old attitude, gave him a slap in the face, and pointed out that he was good at making claims and signing a peace treaty with the Turks, Yang Guang still did not have an immediate attack, but forcibly endured the unhappiness in his heart, restrained his smile, scanned the people in the hall with a gloomy gaze, and asked: "Do you think that what Zhang Fu said?" ”
When the time passed, there was still no one to speak.
Li Che, as the chief aide who accompanied Yang Guang out of the customs to the appointment, saw this situation, and felt that he had the need to step forward and explain the original situation to the Taiwan officials for Yang Guang, and was about to step out of the column to speak, but saw Yang Guang raise his left hand and stop him.
"I want to hear from you." Yang Guang raised his voice and said to everyone in the hall, "In your hearts, do you think that this king should not sign a peace treaty with the Turks, let alone lead water out of the customs to help the Turkic people!" ”
Hearing that Yang Guang's tone was already faintly angry, the members of the congregation looked at each other, and no one dared to stand up and answer. Zhang Wei was at the head of the Taiwanese bureaucrats, and now that Fang Cai's heartfelt words had been spoken, he became relaxed, straightened his waist and stood at the head of the class, looking at the people behind him with cold eyes, as if reminding everyone with his eyes not to meet Yang Guang against their will.
In the death-like silence, Zhang Heng stepped out of the class and arched his hand upwards: "The lower officials dare not guarantee that if the prince decides to go out of the customs and meet with the Turks, if the lower officials are in the state, they will approve of the prince's departure, but the lower officials do not dare to agree with Zhang Fu's words. ”
As soon as he opened his mouth, he offended both Yang Guang and Zhang Wei, Yang Guang listened, and only smiled faintly, but Zhang Wei couldn't hold back the anger in his chest, pointed at Zhang Heng with the wat board in his hand, and asked, "Zhang Jianping, what do you mean by this?" Are you in the Cabinet and do not know about diplomatic relations, but only the rules of the Holy Bow? ”
Zhang Heng was not afraid or angry, turned to face Zhang Wei, smiled and asked rhetorically: "Zhang Fujiao, may I ask, Turkic Khanate, who is respected at the moment?" ”
Zhang Wei glared at Zhang Heng vigilantly like a beast that had suddenly been attacked, and replied: "Although the five Turkic khans have their own tribes and armies, they are always respected by the Shabalu Khan. ”
"Then may I ask Zhang Fuji, the status of the Turki Khan in the Turkic country can be compared with that of His Royal Highness the King of Jin?" Zhang Heng still asked Zhang Weidao with a smile.
"Well, there is still a difference...... Zhang Wei became hesitant, he had vaguely guessed what Zhang Heng wanted to say next.
Sure enough, before Zhang Wei's words fell, Zhang Heng faced everyone in the hall and raised his voice and said: "The king of Jin was canonized as the son of today, patrolled the hunt on behalf of the sky, went out of the north of the town, and took charge of the nineteen state capitals under the rule of Hebei Province, and was the same vassal king as the Tuli Khan who stayed in Baidao Prefecture. So may I ask you, is the peace treaty signed by the vassal kings of the two countries regarded as a contract or document officially signed by the imperial courts of the two countries? ”
Yang Guang was only a primary six student before the crossing, whether he followed the court to listen to the government, or followed Pei Ju, the eldest grandson Sheng studied scriptures, folk customs, and riding archery, but he had never been in contact with the law, but there were many people who were proficient in the law among the Taiwanese officials present today, and they immediately found a loophole in Zhang Heng's words: Zhang Heng was actually deliberately confusing the concept of diplomatic relations between the two countries, and in a strict sense, only contracts and documents officially recognized by the central governments of the two countries can be called peace treaties between the two countries. However, Yang Guang and Chu Luo Yu were both officially appointed vassal kings of the two countries, and any contracts and documents signed between them should be regarded as the scope of diplomatic relations between the two countries in a broad sense, but unlike the peace treaties signed between the central governments of the two countries, any contract signed between the vassal kings should only have actual effect within the scope of their territories, and whether their effect can be extended to the entire territory of the two countries depends on whether the central governments of the two countries approve and treat them differently.
Although many people present saw through that Zhang Heng was using sophistry to bluff Zhang Wei, who had always been timid and afraid of things, they also knew very well that if they stood up at this time and helped Zhang Wei argue with Zhang Heng, although it was not difficult to point out the obvious loopholes in his words, it was inevitable that they would greatly devalue Yang Guang's identity and status.
However, Zhang Heng was also very well-behaved, and before Zhang Wei could taste it, he took the initiative to shift the topic elsewhere, looked directly at Zhang Wei and continued: "Zhang Servant, the lower officials think that as far as the situation facing my Great Sui and the Turks is concerned, there is really no need to sit and talk about what has happened, and judge what has happened, but should focus on how to correctly judge the true intentions hidden behind the Turks' moves, and how to deal with it, does Zhang Servant shoot it?" ”
Although Zhang Wei is old and sophisticated, after all, he is a little older, and his mind is far less fast than Zhang Heng's reaction, and suddenly Zhang Heng deliberately guided him to turn around in a big circle, and returned to Yang Guang's original question, Wu Zi didn't notice it, and actually nodded and agreed: "Jianping's words are not unreasonable, but they are ......"
Zhang Heng didn't give him a chance to wake up at all, interrupted Zhang Wei's words, turned around and said to Yang Guang: "The next official position is in charge of Cao, and I secretly think that the two of them have intersected, and they can't stand without faith, let alone the two countries?" Since the prince had signed a peace treaty with the Turki Khan, he should act in accordance with the peace treaty, even though he knew that the Turks had ill intentions against my Great Sui, this canal should still be repaired. ”
"However, Zhang Shangshu, aren't you worried that the Turks will still ignore the peace treaty and raise troops to invade after receiving help?" Yang Guang listened for a long time, but he couldn't understand what Zhang Heng's opinion was, so he was not busy telling the real reason why he wanted to divide himself and signed a peace agreement with Chu Luoyu, glanced at Li Che who was standing aside, and asked Zhang Heng.
"Lord Wang, the official has not finished speaking. Repairing canals is a demonstration of faithfulness, but at the same time, it is necessary to make two preparations to be sure. ”
Li Che couldn't help but interject and asked, "But I don't know what you mean by the two-handed preparation?" ”
"My lord, the Turks have been living by plundering for many years. As the saying goes: the country is easy to change, but the temperament is difficult to change. When I was out to raise food, I heard a lot of folk rumors that the five Turkic khans would join the Jinshan Alliance, and even divide the forces of the various khans after the defeat of our Great Sui. ”
"Do you mean that we will build aqueducts on the one hand to help the Turkic people in order to show our faith to the world, and on the other hand we will step up the recruitment of troops and food, and be ready for war with the Turks at any time?" Li Che deliberately tested Zhang Hengdao.
"What Qi Angong said is actually one hand, not two hands." Zhang Heng replied disappreciatively, "Although Hebei Province is facing the territory of the Turkic Great Khan, but the Turkic hegemony in Mobei, it is not a matter of three or five years, the territory of the Turkic Khanate stretches for thousands of miles from east to west, and now the main force of the tribe is going west, and the movement is unknown. ”
