There has been a vivid closeness, and the feelings of looking at each other are naturally different from before. The woman's gaze, which was still lazy, was even more gentle, and she once again brought up the matter of the princess of Qin marrying the prince of Chu, and said, "I wonder if you can think of a way to stop this matter?" I'd rather not want those treasures you sent. ”

Zhang Yi frowned, looked particularly troubled, and replied: "This person has been brought to the Chu State, and he will be sent back to the Qin State like this, I should always have a reason and explanation to my country's monarch." I couldn't think of a good reason for it. ”

Zheng Sleeve seemed to have calculated in advance, she said: "As long as Prime Minister Zhang Cheng is bent on helping me, are you afraid that this thing will not be done?" You just say that the king of Chu is sick and can't handle the marriage, and this matter is in the past. ”

Zhang Yi looked at Zheng Sleeve, feeling that she was really not a simple woman, scheming was much more meticulous and flexible than ordinary people, he thought about Zheng Sleeve and his selfless moment just now, and was even more sure that she was intentionally or unintentionally befriending the high-ranking and powerful prime minister of the Great Qin Kingdom, so as to facilitate the foreign rule, which was probably not only her intention as the crown princess, but also a bit like the concubine of the king of Chu.

Zhang Yicai deeply realized Zheng Sleeve's eagerness to stop Yinghan from marrying Mi Huai, if this became true, then all her plans would turn into an empty dream.

Zhang Yi felt that he didn't have to pinch the other party anymore, and his man's arrogance did not allow him to be too embarrassed, a woman who had just been close to his skin. He said: "Since Miss Zheng has already put forward this reason, I will work hard in this direction." It's just that I may be reprimanded by the king for this. ”

Zheng Sleeve stretched out his hand and grabbed Zhang Yi's arm, and said half-coquettishly: "Prime Minister Zhang Cheng is talented and eloquent, you can talk about it in front of the monarch of the Qin State, and you can't resolve this little thing." ”

As she spoke, she shook Zhang Yi's arm again, and said coquettishly: "You just promise me, just now everyone gave themselves to you completely, don't be unappreciative!" ”

Zhang Yi laughed and replied, "Then I'll give it a try." I took the princess of Qin back. He then said, "But you have to do me a small favor too." ”

Zheng Sleeve flashed his bright eyes, looked at Zhang Yi, and said, "What you are talking about must be a military matter, how can I help as a woman?" ”

Zhang Yi shook her head and said: "Miss Zheng is too modest, since ancient times, men have been strong on the surface, but where can they stand the gentleness and affection of women inside, the wind on the pillow is much more effective than the high-minded talk above the court." ”

Zheng Sleeve didn't answer Zhang Yi's words, she glanced at Zhang Yi and was noncommittal, in fact, from the bottom of her heart, she felt the same way. If it weren't for the fact that the identity of the princess of Qin was extremely special, once she entered the palace, she had to be established as a concubine, then the prince Mi Huai would not give up her charming stunner and set up someone else's.

Zhang Yi then said: "According to our Qin State's informant, Qu Xin, the main general who is currently commanding the Chu army on the battlefield of Mianchi, was appointed by his father Qu Jiancai, who was Zongzheng, and Qu Jian was at odds with the crown prince. Can you persuade the crown prince to remove Qu Xin, replace him with his lieutenant Chen Zhen, and lead the Chu army to urgently withdraw to the border of Chu? ”

Zheng Sleeve asked: "It's feasible for me to persuade the prince, but what is the purpose of this temporary change of general?" What benefits can you Qin State get from this? ”

Zhang Yi saw that Zheng Sleeve really didn't understand, so he told Zheng Sleeve in detail about the exchange conditions that he had reached with the crown prince Mi Huai, and he said in the end: "As long as you can successfully persuade the prince to change generals and decide to withdraw to the Chu army, we will have a way to solve other things." This is beneficial to the state of Chu and harmless. ”

Zheng Sleeve still had doubts in her heart, and she asked again: "I also need a reason to persuade the prince, has Prime Minister Zhang ever thought about it?" You'd better tell me along with it, lest I speak inappropriately in the future. ”

Zhang Yi taught Zheng Sleeve: "At present, when the old king of Chu is dying and the new king is about to ascend the throne, there must be people in the country who are ready to move. Qu Jian was already at odds with the crown prince, if you blow the news to him and say that you have heard rumors, Zongzheng Qu Jian will unite with some members of the Mi family, and may make moves that are not favorable to the prince. I think that no matter how bold the prince is, he will not dare to let Qu Jian's son Qu Xin control the military power again. ”

Zheng Sleeve couldn't help nodding her head, a trace of uneasiness flashed in her eyes, and she said: "This trick is really vicious, it is made out of nothing, so that the Qu father and son are unable to guard against it, they are speechless, and they will be put to death, how can they have another chance to turn over?" ”

Zhang Yi himself also knew the power of this "out of nothing" strategy, however, today, the army is prosperous, and the Qin army is besieged, and if this nirvana strategy is not used, the crisis of Michi cannot be solved. He made a helpless expression and replied: "This is also a coincidence, it coincides with the sensitive period of the alternation of power in the Chu State, and at such a moment, it is very appropriate to use this strategy." ”

Zheng Sleeve straightened the long hair that was a little disheveled on his sideburns, then looked at Zhang Yi, and then said, "It's just that I have helped you Qin Guo so much, and I have to make another small request." If you don't agree, then I have to consider whether it is worth talking to the prince about Qu Jian's dissent. ”

After Zhang Yi heard this, she couldn't help but think: "This is really not easy to deal with Zheng Sleeve, she is smart and calculating, she is not easy to be moved, she must win enough interests for herself before she is willing to help." ”

Zhang Yi had a little understanding of the sense of confrontation that came from the subconscious of beating his body when he was close to him just now, and it turned out that the intimate communication between the two still couldn't get rid of the trace of calculation and competition in the depths of his heart.

Zhang Yi replied: "Miss Zheng, it's okay to talk about it, if I can do it, I will definitely not refuse." ”

Zheng Sleeve bit his lip and hesitated for a moment, then said: "I want you Qin State not only to withdraw the plan of Qin and Chu marriage this time, but also to promise not to use this strategy again in the future." ”

Zhang Yi heard that Zheng Sleeve still regarded Qin Chu's marriage as a trick, rather than a sincere reconciliation between the two countries, and he secretly admired Zheng Sleeve's shrewdness in his heart. She probably came out of the prince's harem and fought for a long time, how can people with such an experience easily believe the article on the surface!

However, Zhang Yi also felt that the conditions required by Zheng Sleeve were very high, how could she easily make such a guarantee. If it really comes to the most urgent moment, maybe this strategy will still be a life-saving solution?

Zhang Yi laughed three times in a row, as if Zheng Sleeve's words were very funny. Zheng Sleeve asked: "People are seriously putting forward this condition, what are you laughing at, Prime Minister Zhang?" ”

Zhang Yi replied: "I remembered something, and I thought it was funny, so I laughed." ”

Zheng Sleeve asked curiously: "What is the interesting thing that can make you happy like this, I also want to hear it." ”

Zhang Yi continued: "On my way to Chu State, I once saw a scene where a farmer was sacrificing to his pastoral god in a farmland of less than three acres on the northern outskirts of Yingdu. He only planted an incense candle in the farmland, but his mouth prayed that this year's grain would fill his three large granaries, chickens, ducks, cows and sheep in the courtyard, and money would be piled up in his own cash cabinets. ”

After hearing this, Zheng Sleeve was a little puzzled, and asked again: "This is just an ordinary prayer activity, what is ridiculous in Prime Minister Zhang Cheng?" ”

Zhang Yi replied: "I laugh at this farmer who wants too much to get and pays very little price. Imagine that he is such a simple sacrifice, the god sacrificed is just a small god in his own field, and the sacrifice used is only a candle of incense, but he wants so much in return, food, livestock, poultry, money, is not too disproportionate? ”

Zheng Sleeve only understood what Zhang Yi was referring to at this time, he was obviously telling a story, but in fact, he blamed himself for asking too much and asking too much. Zheng Sleeve was sarcastically ridiculed by Zhang Yi, and his face suddenly turned red. However, Zhang Yi didn't make it clear, so Zheng Sleeve couldn't refute it directly.

After Zhang Yi finished telling the story, he looked at Zheng Sleeve and found that the other party fell into silence, and the scene was slightly embarrassing.

Zhang Yi didn't want to delay any longer, so he suggested: "It's better to do this." I can promise to try my best to dissuade the marriage between Qin and Chu in the future, but you also have to pay some more price, that is, before the day after tomorrow at the latest, to talk to the crown prince Mi Huai about the change of generals and the withdrawal of the Chu army. ”

Zheng Sleeve nodded and said, "It's not a way for the two of us to argue, so let's leave it at that." ”

She turned to Zhang Yi and asked again: "But now that the prince has met with the princess of Qin, I heard rumors in Yingdu that the prince has taken a fancy to that princess Yinghan of Qin." At present, the crown prince is in power in the state of Chu, can you guarantee that he will discourage his determination to marry the princess of the Qin state? ”

Zhang Yi smiled confidently and replied: "I still have this point, I have my own clever plan here, saying that the nobles of the Chu State will dissuade the prince." You can't have both the country and the beauty, it depends on how he chooses. I dare to guarantee the vote, if the relatives of the royal family and the ministers of the foreign dynasty oppose it at the same time, how can the crown prince dare to disobey the opinion of the majority and resolutely marry the princess of the Qin State! ”

Zhang Yi stared at Zheng Sleeve and said to her with relief: "If you can complete the things I explained, I will definitely not break my word." ”

The conditions for the two to talk are almost the same, and each other's attitudes are more relaxed at the moment, and there seems to be a trace of warmth in an instant. Zheng Sleeve moved closer to Zhang Yi, his eyes looking at him, as if there was still longing in his eyes.

Zhang Yi didn't want to be entangled any longer, he said goodbye to Zheng Sleeve: "I have a relationship with Miss Zheng today, and I really understand your power, I will do important things tomorrow, and I will no longer bother Miss Zheng." ”
