In fact, not only Liu Yi, but also many civil and military forces in the court, they have all thought that the envoy sent by Cao Cao will definitely not be a good thing. Now everyone is really disgusted by this Hua Xin.

If it weren't for the fact that even if the two countries were at war, they would not have beheaded the envoys, and now before the war, the New Han Dynasty had just discussed sending envoys to persuade Cao Cao to surrender, so as to gain the initiative in righteousness and find a righteous excuse for the New Han Dynasty to send troops to Cao Cao's court. For various reasons, the ministers allowed this Hua Xin to perform like a clown in this court. Otherwise, I'm afraid that even Xun Yu, who is a good man, can't help but step forward and slap Hua Xin a few times.

You know, now the strong is the New Han Dynasty, what kind of superiority do you have to go to the court of the New Han Dynasty to talk about it? also kept saying that he wanted to see the young emperor, as if discussing with himself and others was to give himself and others face, which was really annoying.

At this time, the ministers knew how wise it was for Liu Yi to avoid it, otherwise, they were afraid that they would really be disgusted by this Hua Xin.

It's just that the person who came was a guest, let alone a messenger sent by Cao Cao, so the courtiers had to be patient and listen to what he had to say.

Xi Zhicai said with a dark face: "Mr. Hua, don't buy anything, let's make your so-called sacred mission clear." ”

"That's a natural way to make it clear." Hua Xin still didn't know that he had provoked the dislike of the Manchu Dynasty of the New Han Dynasty for him, and said as if he was taking care of himself: "Well, that's the case, Hua came to Luoyang, in addition to sending a letter, he also wanted to talk to you about the New Han Dynasty." The question of how our two courts should coexist. ”

Above the court, Xi Zhicai and other military advisors heard Hua Xin's words. I couldn't help but be a little surprised, everyone really didn't expect it. Cao Cao will take the initiative to send someone to talk about this sensitive issue. I didn't expect that Cao Cao would take the lead in his new Han Dynasty and take the initiative to talk to him about this issue.

However, the strategists, they were only surprised for a moment, but they were immediately a little relieved.

How? This is actually a very common problem, both ancient and modern. For example, during the Warring States Period, there were really many cases like Hua Xin. The ministers of the New Han Dynasty, everyone did not put themselves in Cao Cao's side to consider the problem for a while, otherwise, they should have known that Cao Cao would send an envoy to Luoyang.

During the Warring States period, this often happened, when one country was strong and ready to send troops to attack another weak country. So the weak country sees that the situation is not good, when it knows that it can't be defeated. In order to survive, they immediately called for help and asked for help from another powerful country. The second is to directly send envoys to the peace talks, hoping to calm down the war through dialogue. Of course. Either way, the weak country has to pay a considerable price.

Now, none of the ministers of the New Han Dynasty have taken this into account. Now. Cao Cao's court, and the New Han Dynasty. Relatively speaking, one is in a weak position and the other is in a strong position. And Cao Cao, who was in a weak position, said a word. It makes sense that he sent people to take the initiative to find a way to coexist peacefully. Thinking of this, the ministers felt that there was nothing to be surprised about.

Xi Zhicai came back to his senses first and answered: "Oh? Since Mr. Hua has raised the question of how our two courts can coexist peacefully, then you can tell us what you think. Seriously, no matter which court it is, it is the Han court, and the people of our two places are all the people of the Han Dynasty. Therefore, if our two families do not have a war, it is naturally the best, and this should also be the result that the majority of the people want to see. After all, our Han Dynasty has been in war for a long time, and the people are determined. It would be best if there was no war and no war. Let's talk about it. ”

Cao Cao knew that no matter who he sent to the New Han Dynasty, it would not be too easy, because he would face all kinds of uninteresting problems, and it was absolutely impossible to proceed step by step according to their plan as they planned. Therefore, Cao Cao sent Hua Xin as an envoy to the New Han Dynasty, and he gave Hua Xin a lot of autonomy. Cao Cao's purpose is only one, as long as he does not cross his bottom line, then no matter what conditions the New Han Dynasty offers, he Cao Cao can agree.

Of course, Cao Cao's bottom line is actually very limited, first, Cao Cao can be a vassal to the New Han Dynasty, but he must maintain the independence of his own power territory, and the New Han Dynasty is not allowed to send troops into his territory. The other, as a last resort, Cao Cao's plan, can cut the land. For example, Qingzhou was ceded to the New Han Dynasty, and parts of Yuzhou and Yangzhou were placed under the direct rule of the New Han Dynasty. If these bottom lines were crossed, Cao Cao would have no choice but to adopt another plan. Taking advantage of the popular will of the people of the Central Plains, he delayed and hindered the New Han Dynasty's dispatch of troops to attack the war as much as possible, and on the one hand, he stepped up his development and prepared to meet the New Han Army's dispatch of troops to attack him.

For Cao Cao, even if he had to fight this battle in the end, the longer the time dragged on, the more beneficial it would be for him.

Naturally, Hua Xin naturally couldn't drag out the final bottom line of negotiations with the ministers of the New Han Dynasty at once. As the so-called sky-high asking price landed to repay the money, this negotiation is the same. Therefore, Hua Xin said without thinking: "Mr. Xi said it well, really, in fact, we are all Han Chinese, so why attack each other and increase casualties?" Besides, whether it is the emperor or the young emperor, they are all the sons of the first emperor. To put it bluntly, that is, the Han Dynasty belongs to the children of their royal family, so what do we have to do? The reason why Hua wanted to see the young emperor was to tell him that we wanted to have a good talk with his brother and see how the two brothers negotiated. ”

"Mr. Hua, what do you mean by Cao Cao is that now there is no matter for us court courtiers, let the two emperors be the masters and decide how our two courts will be, is that what you mean?" Xi Zhicai said with a sneer in his heart.

"Mr. Xi is really an understanding person, Hua...... No, it's our court, and our prime minister means that. Hua Xinchong gave a thumbs up.

"Humph!" Xi Zhicai snorted coldly and said, "You have a good plan, let the two emperors of the imperial court talk about it?" Your court, can the emperor be the master? Ming people don't say secret words, if Mr. Hua, you are sure that the result of the negotiation between Emperor Xian and our young emperor, no matter what it is, you can guarantee that you will act according to the results of the negotiation between the two emperors. So what if we leave it all to them? I'm afraid, Mr. Hua, you're here to find me happy, right? If only to say so. We don't have to talk about it anymore. ”

Let the two emperors negotiate? Does it work? Xi Zhicai really didn't bother to pay attention to Hua Xin.

"Of course!" Hua Xin said unashamedly: "If the emperor can't be the master, there is no need for Hua to come and talk to you." One way or another. As long as it is negotiated between the two emperors, we will accept it. ”

"Huh, really?" Xi Zhicai didn't believe what Hua Xin said at all.

"Hypothetical, let's assume now." Xi Zhicai said: "Suppose that the emperors of our two imperial courts negotiated together, and the agreed results were as follows. First of all, it is impossible for us, the Han Dynasty, to have two more courts, if one of them is not destroyed. It's the other side that backs down. Therefore, the result is, first, to offer the emperor to our young emperor, and second, to reverse. In this way, there is only one emperor in the Han world. When the time comes, all the imperial courts under Cao Cao, the prime minister, will be able to accept the dissolution of your imperial court. Incorporated into our court? If you can't accept it, don't talk about it anymore. ”

"Hehe, what's so unacceptable about this?"

"What? Can you accept this outcome? Although Xi Zhicai didn't believe it, but. But he was also a little surprised, and couldn't help but look at Jia Xu, Xun Yu, Guo Jia and others.

"Of course it's acceptable, for us and so on. No matter who is the emperor, we are all Hanchen. What's so hard about that? Hua Xin looked like he took it for granted, but. Then he said: "Of course, let's assume that the result of the negotiation between our Emperor Xian and your Young Emperor is that we are vassals to the Young Emperor, then we will be tantamount to giving up all the fame and fortune we have now, and we will sacrifice greatly." Therefore, there should be some conditions, right? It's the same if you are a vassal to our court, and I can promise you some reasonable conditions, right? ”

"Conditions? Tell me about it, what conditions do you have? ”

"Well, it's hard to talk about it now. You have to see what the situation is like. Hua Xin didn't want to throw out his bottom line all at once, so he didn't say this anymore, and asked: "Anyway, it's hypothetical, why don't you also talk about it, if it is replaced by you, what conditions do you want to get?" After all, before the matter is decided, you can say whatever you want, if the conditions you put forward are reasonable, our court can also agree, after all, the emperors of our two families are brothers, it doesn't matter who suffers some losses, and we are all ministers of the Han family, everything depends on our saint, isn't it? ”

"Our imperial court sent an envoy to Luoyang to meet and discuss with your lords, and we came with sincerity. The most important thing is that no matter what, we Han can no longer withstand the toss of war, and everything must be based on the theme of peace, and we have never changed this. Hua Xin seemed to be extremely sincere and cautious.

Although it is a hypothesis, Hua Xin's speech is really not as surprising as the Manchu Dynasty civil and military forces of the New Han Dynasty, because no one thought that Hua Xin would agree so simply that they could claim to their New Han Dynasty? If Hua Xin really came with sincerity, then it would be good not to have to fight in the last big battle.

But the problem is that no matter which of the civil and military forces in the New Han Dynasty is in the court, they always feel that what Hua Xin said is a bit false, too relaxed, and in their hearts, they always feel that Hua Xin's words have a big problem. It's just that, for a while, I can't say where the bad aspects are.

Dangdang!

It was at this time that it was time for Hubert's lunch. In the Imperial Palace, if the afternoon is to continue, all the courtiers will eat in the Imperial Palace, and there will be the Imperial Dining Room of the Imperial Palace to provide lunch for the ministers of civil and military affairs. Dine in the side hall near the court.

"Okay, Mr. Hua, it's time for lunch, it's time to retire from the court, let's have dinner together in the palace, and we'll discuss it in the afternoon." Xi Zhicai terminated the hypothetical issue with Hua Xin in due course.

At this time, in the dormitory of the Empress Dowager He Wan, Liu Yi had already carried her to the luan couch, lay on her body, and galloped freely in various postures, making He Wan's eyes roll and breathe like a gossamer, as if she couldn't even moan.

frantically strafed the bullets, wanting to shoot through He Wan's body, and directly pushed her to a new peak of pleasure.

After He Wan came back to his senses, Liu Yi pulled out the weapon that had softened, and with a poof, with a stream of snow-white liquid, those bullets filled He Wan's underneath to the brim, and when Liu Yi pulled it out, it was all overflowing at once. A peculiar smell with a tinge of green suddenly emanated into the air.

"It's all your fault, it's made people sweat again, and they don't hug others to wash again......" He Wan glanced at Liu Yi with disgust, opened her jade arms, and asked Liu Yi to carry them to clean.

……

Liu Yi was really afraid that she would be tired, so after hugging her and washing, he put on her clothes, combed her makeup, and then accompanied her to lunch.

Liu Yi remembered the matter of the envoy sent by Cao Cao, and wanted to coax He Wan to rest for a while, but Xi Zhicai and others asked the palace maid to inform Liu Yi, and He Wan also wanted to hear what the purpose of the envoy sent by Cao Cao came. went to the imperial study with Liu Yi to see Xi Zhicai and others.

When I arrived at the imperial study, there were actually more than ten or twenty civil and military officers waiting for Liu Yi.

Seeing that there were so many of them here, and their faces seemed a little ugly, Liu Yi couldn't help but smile and said, "What's wrong?" Have you figured out the purpose of Cao Cao's envoy? You don't have to be bitter, right? No big deal. Let's talk about it. ”

Xi Zhicai and others told Liu Yi and the Queen Mother about Hua Xin's purpose.

"!" When the Empress Dowager He Wan heard this, she glared and said: "The chin is gentle, and the two mouths touch each other, can you believe what Hua Xin said?" It's a complete excuse, who doesn't know that the court in Xuchang is controlled by Cao Cao? Now what is the final say of Emperor Xian? You go and say to Hua Xin, no, Ben Hou will go in person, and tell him that if their court is really the emperor who can call the shots, then I, the mother, tell him to come to Luoyang to see me immediately, and see what Hua Xin has to say? ”

The queen mother was rude, so that all the ministers were stunned, but they felt that what the queen mother said seemed to be very reasonable. It is completely possible to dismantle Hua Xin's lies.

"Well, yes, this is indeed a good way to directly expose Hua Xin's lies." Liu Yi also nodded, indicating that He Wan could go to see Hua Xin, but then smiled again and said: "Hehe, everyone, you are all burdened by fame, our family has a big business, and we have begun to pay attention to our image and reputation." In addition, because Cao Cao sent people to our court first, it seems that he has the initiative to talk between the two of us, so it makes it difficult for you to do it? Actually, it doesn't have to be this way. (To be continued.) )
