On the second day, Ruan Fulan did not come to watch the big ship again as Su Baiyi imagined, but went without news.

Day 3, Day 4, Day 5.

A few days passed, and Su Baiyi's face became more and more gloomy. originally wanted to take out the "King of Quang Nam" to tempt the Ruan family, but this Ruan family is not a fool, everyone is human, no one is much smarter than the other, and people just don't take the bait.

If this trip is in vain, it will really not be good.

Today's Annam, whether it is the Nguyen clan, is one of the best forces in the entire Indochina Peninsula, and if an agreement cannot be reached with them, half of the plan to rely on foreign grain to transport Shaanxi to save people will be bankrupt.

Other countries such as Champa, Chenla, Phnom Penh and other countries, although they are also located in the tropics, and their rice is not a problem to be harvested three times a year, but these places are far away from Huahua and have not been affected by Chinese civilization, so the degree of recognition of China is not high. That's one thing.

In addition, due to the backwardness of culture, the productive forces are also backward, except for the Taungoo Dynasty in Myanmar, which is slightly unsatisfactory, the rest of the places are basically the land of the outside world, there is land but not developed, or developed but not enough planting, anyway, the grain production is also extremely average.

If there is enough time to operate, it may take ten or twenty years to knead these countries and force them to pay attention to agriculture, but the problem is that Su Baiyi has no time to wait.

In this anxious waiting, Hou Fangyu, who went out to inquire about the news, finally returned.

"How?" Su Baiyi called Hou Fangyu to his temporary study, closed the door and asked, "I heard the news about the Zheng family's envoy." ”

"I see!" After Hou Fangyu sat down, his face was a little solemn and said, "Sir, Chaozong has heard two pieces of news, which are all unfavorable to us. ”

"Hmm!" Su Baiyi's eyes narrowed slightly, the teapot in his hand was raised high, the spout was tilted, and a wisp of pale cyan tea was left along the spout, hanging like a silk thread, and it was steadily poured into the teacup, without any chaos. After pouring the tea, Su Baiyi personally pushed it in front of Hou Fangyu: "Drink the water first and speak slowly." ”

Hou Fangyu stood up in fear and said, "Mr. has tormented the student." ”

"Sit, now is not the time to pay attention to these false courtesies!"

Hou Fangyufu sat down again, took two sips of the teacup to show respect, and then spoke: "The envoy of the Zheng clan has indeed arrived, no, to be precise, it should be the envoy of the Li Dynasty, it is said that they gave this Ruan lord the title of the prince, and the two families made peace with the army, and agreed to jointly send troops to exterminate the Mo clan in the north." ”

Su Baiyi's eyes were cold, and he said, "Sure enough!" ”

"Yes, sir!" Hou Fangyu continued: "The good thing that Ruan Fu said is that he is in the south of the Yangtze River, but the bad thing is that he is passively beaten. Their strength is actually not large, the standing army is only 20,000 people, but it is only because of the advantages of the Lingjiang natural danger, coupled with the artillery at the head of the city, and a powerful naval division on the water, which can barely resist the Zheng offensive.

The Zheng Ruan dispute has been going on for more than five years, and the Nguyen Phuc clan is strong in the outside world, but in fact, he doesn't want to fight for a long time. Now that Emperor Li has given him a chance to borrow the slope to get off the donkey, he will naturally gladly agree. But somehow, perhaps because of the arrival of our Ming envoy, this Ruan Fuyuan hesitated, and has not given a positive answer to Emperor Li's envoy so far. ”

"It's not because of us!" Su Baiyi stood up with his long body, walked to the center of the study with his hands behind his back, looked ahead with his face slightly raised, and a trace of anxiety flashed in his eyes: "That's because he hasn't thought about it yet, whether to send troops to Gaoping." After speaking, he turned to look at Hou Fangyu and said, "We can't wait any longer, the longer we wait, the easier it will be to get into trouble." Can you inquire about the post station where the Zheng envoy lives? ”

"Inquire clearly!" Hou Fangyu said: "Then Lord Ruan was afraid that the two of us would meet, so he placed us in this post station in the east of the city, but they were in an inn in the north of the city. Speaking of this, he seemed to think of something, a hint of strange color flashed in his eyes, and he hurriedly asked, "Is it ...... sir?"

Su Baiyi nodded and sneered: "You don't see, Ban Dingyuan, the Peerless Light Cavalry is urging Zhanyun." ”

Hou Fangyu's heart moved.

Su Baiyi waved his hand and said, "This is a last resort, didn't you say that there is another news, what is it?" ”

Hou Fangyu arched his hand and said: "The student inquired, this Ruan Fuyuan is inclined to accept the canonization of Emperor Li, this recuperation and recovery is certainly one thing, but he is not a fool, how can he let the Zheng clan free up his hands to attack the Mo clan, so as to change direction to make his enemies stronger?" He also has other plans. ”

"You say!" Su Baiyifu sat in his seat again, picked up the tea and tasted it slightly.

"According to the students' discovery, there are still two anointed countries in the south of Annam, and the one next to Annam is called Cham, whose soil is the size of half of my Ming Dynasty, but the land is fertile and the people are abundant, but unfortunately the country is not producing, and its armament is also quite weak; Further south is called Chenla, this small country is the same size as the Champa, the same fertile land is rich in the people, but the military strength is more unbearable than the Champa, and the capital of the country is only more than 1,000 people in the Khmer. ”

"So ......" Su Baiyi's eyes lit up: "Lord Ruan, this old bastard has a good idea, let the Zheng clan go to destroy the Gaoping Mo clan, and he can't spare his hand to go south, but he can take the opportunity to take the Cham and Zhenla, and these two places will be merged into Guangnan, and with a little integration, the Annan Ruan clan can really compete with the Zheng clan." What an old fox! After speaking, he asked Hou Fangyu: "Is there any other news!" ”

"The rest of the useful news is gone!" Hou Fangyu said.

"What's not important?" Su Baiyi asked.

"It's not important...... Hou Fangyu lowered his head and thought for a while, and said: "By the way, Lord Ruan's favorite concubine will go to Dashan Temple tomorrow to offer incense, I don't know if this counts?" ”

"Well...... this" Su Baiyi was a little painful, what is the use of this?

"It is said that ...... This concubine of Ruan Fuyuan was originally from our Ming Dynasty, and she took refuge with her family and came to Quang Nam a few years ago, so she ......"

"Hmm!" Su Baiyi's eyes suddenly lit up.

There's a play!

"Huh!" He waved his hand to interrupt Hou Fangyu's words and said, "In this way, you can go through the winding path." It is said that the wind on the daughter's pillow is very strong, so I don't know if this concubine can blow it. In this way, you go and arrange it, and I will also go to Dashan Temple tomorrow to offer incense, and I just take the opportunity to meet this Ruan Phuc concubine, ...... Don't forget to bring our gifts. ”

"Gifts?" Hou Fangyu was slightly stunned, this time he came to Annan, and he brought a lot of gifts, and Mr. suddenly said this, he didn't know what gifts to bring.

"Bike!" Su Baiyi said with a smile: "You send someone to the boat and pick a good-looking one, I remember that there is a commotion pink, so I will take that one and hide it in the temple in advance." ”

Everyone is from the Ming Dynasty, and this woman seems to have grown up in the Ming Dynasty, so she will think of some feelings of her mother country.

Su Baiyi didn't ask her to persuade Ruan Fuyuan to accept Daming's canonization, but only asked her to blow the wind, and Ruan Fuyuan was willing to meet her. Once Nguyen Phuc Yuan received him, he had a hundred ways for Nguyen Phuc Yuan to receive the order.

"Sir, the student will go down and make arrangements first." Hou Fangyu got up.

Su Baiyi pressed his hand and motioned for him to sit down, and said, "Don't worry, there are other things to explain to you." ”

"Please sir!" Hou Fangyu bowed his hand and sat down.

Su Baiyi took a sip of water and said, "We have been postponing here for some time, this matter cannot be delayed any longer, and now we naturally can't put all our hopes on this woman, we have to prepare some other means." ”

"What means is the gentleman going to use?" Hou Fangyu asked.

"Prepare for the division in three ways!" Su Baiyi squinted his eyes and said: "This woman is a thread, whether she succeeds or not, depends on tomorrow." In addition, there are intimidation and last resorts. ”

"The students are listening!" Hou Fangyu leaned forward slightly.

"The so-called absolute queen is to cut off Ruan Fuyuan's back road, so that his hope for the canonization of the Li Dynasty is completely cut off." Su Baiyi said: "I have already said just now, the Peerless Light Cavalry urges Zhan Yun, he Ban Dingyuan did it, how can I Su Baiyi not do it?" ”

Hou Fangyu's body was shocked.

He thought about it just now, but he wasn't sure, now that Mr. said it himself, he was naturally a little frightened, he had been familiar with history books since he was a child, and he couldn't be too clear about the allusion to Ban Dingyuan.

During the reign of Emperor Yongping of the Ming Dynasty of the Han Dynasty, the Han Dynasty's control over the Western Regions was reduced for some reasons. As a result, the countries of the Western Regions were controlled by the Northern Xiongnu. After the Northern Xiongnu obtained the manpower and material resources of the Western Regions, their strength increased greatly, and they repeatedly invaded the counties of Hexi, making the people in the border areas unbearable.

In the sixteenth year of Yongping, Dou Gu and others sent troops to attack the Northern Xiongnu, and Ban Chao followed the northern expedition and served as a fake Sima. During the northern expedition, in order to contact various countries for support, Dou Gu's squad exceeded the Western Regions.

Ban Chao first arrived in Shanshan, and the king of Shanshan treated them very well at first, but after a few days, he began to gradually become cold. Ban Chao knew that this was because the Xiongnu envoys also arrived, and Shanshan was more willing to ally with the Xiongnu. So he led 36 people under his command to burn the camp of the Hun envoys at night, stabbing more than 30 people, so that the Hun envoy regiment was completely annihilated.

At this point, Shanshanguo had no choice but to make friends with the Han Dynasty.

And now that they are sending an envoy to Guangnan, the situation they encounter is very similar to that of Ban Chao back then, although it seems dangerous to suddenly attack and kill the Zheng envoy, but if it is used well, it can indeed have a miraculous effect.

"This, student ......"

Su Baiyi smiled and said, "You can't do this kind of thing, don't worry, I will teach Guo Cheng to do it." You do something else for me. ”

"Yes!" Hou Fangyu breathed a sigh of relief.

"You go to Ruan Fu's place, and say that the envoy has something important to discuss with the prince Ruan Fulan, and let him come over after lunch, this intimidation tactic can only be used on him."

It doesn't matter if the old turtle of Ruan Phuc Yuan says that he is sick, Ruan Fulan can't call it sick.
