PS: Chapter 2, ask for recommendation votes!

In mid-October, when Duanmu entered Xinzheng Xicheng, Zhao Wuxian left the army to stay in Chaoge, and he himself took Zhao Guangde back to Wendi to mourn.

"The Zhi clan killed my eldest brother for no reason, this revenge is not shared!"

He and Han Hu, who came from the wild king, worshiped their eldest brother Bolu together, and vowed to avenge this in front of Zhao Ying, and by the way, they tore up Zhao Ying's oral marriage contract with the Zhi family in order to delay time.

Later, he had to arrange a siege of the territory of the Zhou family, and originally planned to confiscate the fields of the royal family and the doctors as revenge, because of historical reasons, they were scattered in the small towns here.

However, Yang Yin proposed a strategy, not to deal with the field house property of the Zhou family doctor here, but to distinguish between those who were openly hostile to the Zhao family, such as Liu Gong's field house, and protect the property of those who were forced to follow, so as to win their gratitude, and at the same time leave the heart of Zhou Shiqing.

After working all day, he was urged by his sister Ji Ying to leave the official office, and Zhao Wuxian had the opportunity to withdraw from the complicated military affairs and return to the dormitory to reunite with his wife and children who had been separated for a long time.

Xiao Zhao Cao is more than a year old, he hasn't seen him for a few months and has grown up a lot, he has been weaned, and he can babble some babbling words that don't know the meaning.

"I don't know when I will speak, I hope I can be next to him at that time and listen to him shout 'Father'......"

"The concubine is teaching him every day...... "Bo Qi gave up the position closest to Zhao Wuxian to Shaojun Le Lingzi, and she herself stood aside and responded obediently, Zhao Wuxian's harem was still harmonious on the surface.

teased my son for a while. The child was also tired, so Zhao Wuxian asked Bo Qi to take him down. It wasn't until this time that the house was empty, and he had the opportunity to be alone with Le Lingzi.

It's still the time of Beru's mourning. Zhao Wuxian and Lingzi were still wearing sackcloth filial piety clothes, so not only could they not be affectionate, but they couldn't even spend the night together. Wuxian could only make a long story short, and asked some about the recent condition of Zhao Ying's body, Lingzi's habits in Wen County, and in the end, he briefly mentioned the situation between Zheng and Song.

"I sent Zigong to Zheng Guo, and he has now arrived in Xinzheng."

"Husband wants to reconcile with Zheng Guo!?" Lingzi was stunned, she was smart enough to guess Zhao Wuxian's thoughts at once.

"Yes. Zheng Guo's repetition is famous, and he has oscillated between Jin and Chu many times in the past, and you are from Song, so I would like to hear your opinion on this matter. ”

Le Lingzi's beautiful eyebrows were slightly frowned: "The concubine thinks that if Fujun wants Zheng Guo to change the court, not only is it not a big success, but it is also very risky." ”

"Why?" Zhao Wuxian knew that Le Lingzi had been in charge of the internal affairs of Sicheng Le's for a long time, and he had his own opinions on some political affairs.

Lingziping Japan will not interfere much in foreign affairs, but she is a Song person. He was born with a kind of hostility towards Zheng Guo and felt that this matter was inappropriate, so he said: "First, although Zheng people are profitable. But they have always been enemies of the Zhao family, and it will cost them a great deal to change their courts. ”

"Second, the husband has fought too hard in the East and the Central Plains over the years: the government of the Lu State. Break the guard, destroy the Fan family. The world is terrified. So much so that they are attacked on all sides. The concubine is just a woman, but she also knows the truth that her lips are dead and her teeth are cold, and in the eyes of Zheng Guoren, the threat of the Zhao family is bound to be greater than that of Jin and Qi combined, and they are afraid that they will not repeat the affairs of the two countries of Yu and Yu. ”

"Third, and most importantly, Zheng Guo has a grudge with the Han family, and he is a two-hundred-year-old enemy with the Song State. Unless Fujun can become the secretary of Jin, dominate the Central Plains like Duke Wen of Jin and King Chuzhuang, and completely subjugate Zheng State, otherwise, it is impossible for Zheng and Song to coexist in an alliance. After the Battle of Yanling that year, Zheng Guo would rather take refuge in the Chu State than join the side of the victor Jin League, which is largely due to this reason. ”

She took a breath and continued: "What's more, the Zheng people are capricious and are likely to make excessive demands, such as ceding the Zheng Song Gap Land, accepting Punan, and then betraying the alliance after they succeed, but the Zhao clan has no choice but to ......."

Zhao Wuxian was silent, Le Lingzi saw this, and bowed down: "Lingzi is a Song girl, knowing the stubbornness of the Song people, three years ago, Song Guole's big heart and the fourth son's usurpation of power were unpopular, and it was precisely because of the collusion with the Zheng people that the Song people were dissatisfied. This time, even if Sicheng Le and the princess Nanzi agreed, the people of Song would not be willing to reconcile with Zheng Guo, let alone cede the interests of the city. Therefore, Zheng and Song can't have both, even if Zigong's lips and tongue can break the sky and say the dead alive, they can't do it. At that time, not only will Zheng not be able to do it anyway, but it will affect Zhao Song's friendship......"

"You have a point."

Zhao Wuxian nodded, "I don't expect Zheng to change his court, I just want to avoid them from attacking Song and going north in the short term, you know the situation of Song Kingdom, it's not optimistic, Ziming did his best to help me, how could I be ungrateful and damage Song's interests for Zheng Guo's sake?" ”

Zheng Guo had repeated it twenty-one times between Jin and Chu, and their promise was the most untrustworthy thing in the world, and a fattened white-eyed wolf would bite you back at any time, not to mention that if you let your hardcore ally Song Guo centrifuge because of this, it would be more than worth the loss.

"That Zigong goes to Zheng Guo ......"

"The purpose of Zigong's trip is to find a way to confuse the people of Zheng Guo, at least let them relax their vigilance and divert their energy, so that the rulers of Zheng Guo do not realize that a rapid attack on Wei Guo is just around the corner, and when they react, the general trend ......of the Eastern Front has been decided."

Zhao Wuxian made an analogy: "It's like throwing a piece of meat at the back of a hungry wolf to induce it to turn around and bite it, and when he turns around, my sword is already raised high." ”

"I see!"

Le Lingzi suddenly realized, she said so much just now, but Zhao Wuxian already had a safe plan in his heart, too, what he understands, how could he not know.

Wives always have a blind trust in their husbands. Thinking of this, her face suddenly turned crimson, "Since the husband has already made up his mind, why bother asking the concubine again......"

Le Lingzi was still kneeling on the ground, looking up at her husband with a strange look in her eyes.

This posture was extremely ambiguous, and Zhao Wuxian couldn't help but move in his heart, condescendingly, caressing her delicate face. Raising her pointed chin, she laughed, "If I don't ask, how do I know that my young monarch is so proficient in the situation of the princes." Not only can she take care of housekeeping, but she can also be my female adviser. Lingzi's lips and tongue are also quite good......"

The words were ambiguous, Le Lingzi's face became more and more red, and at this time she was on a blind date, her eyes were a little blurred and out of breath, and Zhao Wuxian, who had not been close to a woman for several months, also moved her index fingers, and her movements became restless.

But Lingzi finally broke free, and Zhengse said that it was the mourning period of the eldest brother of the Zhao family, and Zhao Wuxian's words and deeds were stared at by countless people. Although he is already the son of the Zhao family and the future head of the family, he can't do it for a small reason, and he must not violate the etiquette system.

"Listen to you." Seeing that his wife was so calm, Zhao Wuxian nodded helplessly, and when he left, he turned back to Lingzi, who wanted to speak, and said, "I won't go to anyone else tonight, on the case, there are still mountains of slips and paper scrolls for me to see......"

looked at the husband who officially supported the Zhao family. Lingzi's eyes couldn't help but sour, and then her heart softened, and she hurriedly found the refreshing incense that had been arranged earlier, as well as a bag of sun-dried plant leaves. Stuffed into the hands of the shirtless.

"Please take it, husband."

……

Zhao Wuxian saw that this thing was too familiar, and couldn't help but ask in surprise: "Could this be ......?"

This is what the husband said. The grass that can relieve the fatigue of winter nights has been dried and fried according to what the husband said. The concubine tried. After boiling it in boiling water, the soup is boiled and drunk, and the taste is bitter. However, there is also a fragrance that is very refreshing. Legend has it that Shennong tasted a hundred herbs, encountered seventy-two poisons a day, and got the grass to solve it, and it really has its wonders, in the past, the grass was only occasionally used in medicine, and I never thought that it could be used like this, where did the husband know? ”

"This ...... It was taught to me by two hermits of Chu who met in the Song Kingdom, and I thought it was only available in the land of Wu and Chu, but who knew that I had really found it! Zhao Wuxian can be said to be overjoyed, the grass is the tea of the later generations, he didn't drink other drinks in his previous life, but this one is good. It's a pity that this thing didn't begin to appear as a drink until the Han and Jin dynasties, and it mostly grew in the south, and the Central Plains of the Spring and Autumn Period was almost nowhere to be found.

Le Lingzi said: "This thing is not produced north of the river, and the husband searched for Lu before to no avail, and in the end, it was Nanzi who asked Wuzhu to patrol the countryside to preach, and found ......it from the Pengcheng area."

She then lowered her head and said sourly: "The princess really tried her best to please her husband......"

"Cough, I accepted this thing, and the young monarch thanked the princess of Song for the gift on my behalf."

Facing the sudden jealousy of his little wife, Zhao Wuxian felt a little ashamed in his heart, just like just now he used the unknown fisherman and Chu madman to prevaricate to make tea, haha smiled and brought it over, as a smart person, Lingzi did not pursue it too much, and after going out together, he said goodbye and saw Wuxian leave.

"There are also seeds sent together, if my husband likes to drink, when I get to the song, I will try to plant some in the garden, and I don't know if I can survive. And orange is born in Huainan is orange, born in Huaibei is orange, this grass climate, soil, water and land are different, I am afraid the taste will be very different......"

She sighed, looking forward to leaving Wen County as soon as possible, and at the same time she was a little curious.

"What exactly would the husband want to use to attract Zheng Guo's attention?"

……

This time, Zheng Guozheng's official office.

Rare, Si, Abundant, Travel, India, Country, Good ...... These seven princes of Zheng Guo are collectively called "Seven Mu" because they are all descendants of Zheng Mugong!

Zheng Guo's government was monopolized by Qimu for many years, and this clan group has been inseparable after several splits and cooperation. They took turns ruling like Lu Guosanhuan, and after the two famous ministers of the Guo's son and You's uncle passed away one after another, it was the turn of the Si clan to be the Zhengqing and dominate Zheng Guo.

He was more than forty years old, but his hair was already thinning, he had a tendency to be bald, his lips were thin, his heart was narrow-minded and he could not tolerate people, and he once sent Deng Yi to prison and almost killed him.

Although he wanted to kill Deng Xi, he used Deng Xi's "Bamboo Punishment" in Zheng Guo to maintain this state that was respected by the emperor and the four pillars of business.

Moreover, although he blocked the tradition of the new Zheng Shi to discuss politics, he adhered to the policy of governing the country and increased the protection of Zheng Guo's officials and merchants. In later generations, the heavy agriculture and suppression of business were completely invisible in Zhengdi, but because of the large number of people and the narrow land, many Zheng people governed the industry, worked industry and commerce, and pursued the benefits of tithes.

Now, this Zhengqing sat behind the case, processed the mountains of files, and stamped countless times, before he raised his head and looked at Duanmu Ci, who had been standing in the hall for a long time, but had not received the seat, and said slowly: "How is Deng Xi doing on the Zhao family's side?" ”

Zigong is already a mature diplomat, he is not impatient, and smiled faintly: "Deng Zi is all right, others are regarded as guests by the Zhao family, they eat meat every day, and they have cars, Zhao Qing asked him to revise the criminal law suitable for the Zhao family......"

Si Xiao snorted coldly and said: "After this incident, many of the princes said that I was narrow-minded, and the Zhao father and son became a model of love. From that time until the Song Rebellion, Zhao Wuxian was deliberately making enemies of me, and now you say that your lord wants to reconcile with Zheng Guo? I'm afraid it's because the Zheng army is in a hurry to attack Punan, so I'm panicking, how can I believe a sincere lobbyist and trader like you! Come on, expel this shaft from the official office! ”

Zigong did not panic, but said without humility or arrogance: "My master taught me the four virtues: literacy, conduct, loyalty, and faithfulness, so when I do business, I always be sincere, and I would rather lose myself than deceive the buyer." It's the same as being a pedestrian, and I came to Zheng Guo this time to let the ruling avoid a fruitless lose-lose situation, and I hope that the ruling government can listen to me. ”

But he laughed: "Lose both? I don't think so, the main force of the Zhao army went to Hebei, and there was not much defense in Henan, and the Lu soldiers were pinned down by the Qi State in Ludi, and they couldn't withdraw from the west. After Zheng Guo expelled the Song people from Punan and Jixi, he would naturally be able to occupy their land. Although these places were the cities of the Wei Guo, Qi and Jin relied more on the Zheng State than the Wei Guo, and after the war, they would naturally force the Wei people to transfer ......"

He pointed to the tip of Zigong's nose and asked loudly, "Don't you claim to be able to speak well?" Let's talk about it, can Zhao give Zheng Guo such a Baili deal!? ”
