Sun Qian took a deep breath and arched his hand: "The king's words are wrong. ”

"Oh? I would like to hear about it. Zhang Zai looked interested, made a gesture of please, and motioned for him to continue.

"It is true that, according to the king's words, your country's national strength is unparalleled, and it has many generals and a wide range of generals, and its combat power is unmatched, and there are few opponents in the world.

Sun Gan praised all the times, and directly praised the Tang State as the first vassal state in the world, even if Zhang Zai knew that Sun Qian's words were full of exaggerations, he couldn't help but feel a little proud in his heart.

"Your envoy has a good reputation, where can Tang be regarded as the crown of all countries." Zhang Zai shook his head and said modestly.

"The foreign minister is not wrong, with the current situation of the Tang Kingdom, it can swallow the Jin State and dominate the four northern states." Sun Qian ignored Zhang Zai's self-effacing words and continued.

Zhang Zai smiled noncommittally, his family knows his own affairs, he wants to swallow the Jin Kingdom, it is still a little difficult, even if the Jin Kingdom is destroyed, he may not have the ability to occupy the entire territory of the Jin Kingdom without civil strife.

The strength of the family in the Jin Kingdom is strong, and all the officials are filled by people from the family, even if he lays down the Jin Kingdom, it may not be easy to take root in the Jin Kingdom.

Unless he no longer targets the family of the Jin Kingdom, but this is almost impossible, the family is a moth in society, Zhang Zai would rather cultivate talents by himself than reuse the family.

At least until the Tang State had a complete official selection system, he was not prepared to reuse the family.

"Gongyou laughed, although the national strength of the Tang State is strong, it cannot support the great cause of destroying the Jin Dynasty." Zhang Zai looked at Sun Qian and called him directly.

Sun Qian only thought that Zhang Zai was being modest, so he said: "Why should the Tang King be modest, the Tang State is strong and strong, how can it be difficult to destroy even a Jin State?" ”

Zhang Zai shook his head and smiled bitterly, that's what he said, that's right, but if the reality was really as simple as Sun Qian said, he would have raised troops to level the Jin Kingdom.

"Why should the public bully orphans." Zhang Zai sighed: "Not to mention whether Lone has the strength to destroy the Jin Kingdom, once Lone makes up his mind to destroy the Jin Kingdom, I am afraid that what he will face at that time will not be a Jin State." ”

A smile flashed on Sun Gan's face, got up and went to the middle of the living room, bowed solemnly to Zhang Zai and said, "I am ordered to come this time to solve the king's worries. ”

Zhang Zai and Wang Meng secretly glanced at each other, Zhang Zai glanced at Wang Meng, only to hear Wang Meng say: "I don't know what King Lu thinks?" ”

Sun Qianbai said: "Gao Jian didn't dare to be, the foreign minister was ordered this time to come to form an alliance with the Tang State, and the two sides advanced and retreated together, although the strength of the Lu State was not as good as the Wei State, but the Wei State was still able to contain it." ”

Wang Meng pretended to be surprised, got up and saluted Sun Gan, and said solemnly: "King Lu's foresight is really admirable!" ”

Sun Qian looked at Wang Meng, not knowing if he was pretending to be stupid, or if he really didn't know the current predicament of Lu Guo, so he only returned the salute to Wang Meng, and then continued to say to Zhang Zai: "This move is beneficial and harmless to the two countries, and please think twice." ”

Before Zhang Zai could answer, Wang Meng on the side immediately spoke up: "But I heard that the Lu State was invaded by the Wei State, and it seems that it is already in danger. ”

Sun Gan's face changed slightly, and he recovered in the blink of an eye, and continued: "This is just a rumor from others, the Lu State has a strong army, a lot of grain and grass, and the generals are even better at fighting, and now it is only because of the villain that he has lost a large amount of territory. ”

Sun Qian flicked his sleeves and said coldly: "As long as I give Lu Guo some time, if I want to retreat from the Wei army, it's just a flip of my palm." ”

Wang Meng laughed twice, not knowing whether he was laughing at Sun Qian or laughing at Lu Guo.

"Hmph, since the king has no intention of forming an alliance, then I will take my leave." Sun Gan heard Wang Meng's laughter, his face was displeased, and Zhang Zai didn't say anything, so he bowed directly to Zhang Zai, and then turned around and left directly.

One step, two steps......

When Sun Qian was about to walk out of the living room, Zhang Zai's voice suddenly came from behind him.

"Your envoy stays."

Sun Gan's heart had already risen to his throat at this time, and his forehead was sweating, his back was already full of water marks, his close-fitting clothes were directly soaked, his hands had already been clenched into fists in his sleeves, and his nails almost pierced the flesh and leached blood.

Sun Gan let out a secret breath, turned around slowly, bowed to Zhang Zai, and asked coldly, "I don't know what else the king commands?" ”

It's just that Sun Gan's throat is almost dry, his voice is a little hoarse and harsh, and most of the future of Lu Guo is pressed on him, and the pressure on him can be imagined.

If he can't say that the Tang State will send troops this time, the then Lu State will likely be wiped out by the Wei State, and he will also be a courtier of the fallen country.

Zhang Zai bowed slightly to Sun Gan and said: "I'm afraid that your envoy has misunderstood, Lone has a relationship with King Lu, and the alliance is beneficial to both parties, how can Lone refuse, but before the alliance, there are still some things to ask clearly." ”

After listening to Zhang Zai's words, Sun Gan's heart completely relaxed, since Zhang Zai intends to form an alliance, then the next thing is easy to discuss.

"Your envoy has misunderstood what I mean." Wang Meng on the side was also under Zhang Zai's signal, and explained loudly: "It's not that I don't want to form an alliance with Lu State, but the matter is big, as the prime minister, I must understand the recent situation of Lu State, which is my duty." ”

After that, Wang Meng apologized to Sun Qian.

Sun Qian returned the salute and laughed at himself slightly: "But it was Qian who misunderstood the meaning of the prime minister, and he did it." ”

"Since both countries are interested in forming an alliance, I would like to ask your envoy to sit back and discuss the matter of forming an alliance." Jang Jae made a gesture of please.

"No!" Sun Qian bowed deeply, and under the wide sleeves, he breathed a sigh of relief, and then got up and walked slowly to the seat.

"Jin is the life and death enemy of the Tang State, over the years, the two countries have been fighting constantly, although the Tang State is overpowering the Jin State, but there is no absolute chance of victory, and the Wei State is allied with the Jin State, once the Jin State raises troops, the Wei State will definitely get a piece of the pie, although the Tang State is strong, it has not yet been able to resist the strength of the other two countries at the same time."

"King Lu proposed the alliance, Lone also thought for a long time, trying to find a strong ally, but never thought that Lone was thinking about the candidate for the envoy, and the envoy had already come to the door."

Zhang Zai's mind kept surging the current situation of various countries, and said slowly.

"It is a blessing for the two countries that the king has the heart to form an alliance." Sun Gan on the side sighed.

"Since the two countries are on the same page, this alliance should be on the agenda." Wang Meng also helped on the side.

Sun Qian looked at Wang Meng, a trace of gratitude flashed in his eyes, and said: "Prime Minister Wang Cheng is reasonable, this matter should reach a consensus as soon as possible and sign an alliance." ”

"Good." Zhang Zai nodded and said, "I wonder if King Lu has drafted a covenant, or has any ideas?" ”

Sun Qian smiled bitterly in his heart, at the beginning, they only thought about lifting the siege of Wei, where would they take these into account.

"King Lu has a saying, please ask King Tang to bother more about the covenant."
