Chapter Seventy-One: Misunderstandings of Contacts

Bianliang, the palace vertical arch hall.

Zhao Kuangyin put down the paperwork in his hand and smiled, this is the news sent back from Nantang.

"The imperial brother is really courageous, he actually asked him to envoy to the Tang Kingdom, and the younger brother really admires it!" Zhao Guangyi at the bottom of the stairs said with a smile.

"Really?" Zhao Kuangyin said: "Then what does the second brother think now?" ”

Zhao Guangyi said with a smile: "Yes, no rudeness, no loss of bearing, just right, but I'm afraid there are a lot of people who offend!" ”

"Speaking of which, I have affected him, when I was in Qingliu Pass, I slashed Huang Fuhui's head with a knife...... It is not surprising that Huangfu Jixun hates me and hates the Great Song Dynasty. ”

"But the facts are reversed, it seems that Huangfu Jixun has suffered one after another!"

"Gorou does have some skills, it's very surprising!" Zhao Kuangyin said with a smile: "Look, this is the word he filled in at Li Congjia's birthday banquet, overpowering the Southern Tang Dynasty, it is said that it has swept the south of the Yangtze River, it seems that I gave him the word 'Wenyan' is really worthy of his name!" ”

"If the two love for a long time, how can they be in the morning and twilight?" Zhao Guangyi smiled: "It's really good, he is ......"

"Send someone to send it to Fu Li!"

Zhao Guangyi suddenly said: "That's it, what does the imperial brother mean?" ”

"What does the second brother think?"

"If they are already in love, it is naturally the best, but they are like a family, but my father-in-law ......" Zhao Guangyi replied with a smile after a moment of hesitation.

Zhao Kuangyin said with a smile: "When he left, I promised him that the affairs of Jiangnan were done, and I could help him do good things, Fu Yanqing, you also have to help talk!" However, the outcome is still up to him. ”

"But it looks like good things are about to come to pass, so you have to drink happy wine!"

Zhao Kuangyin laughed, and then said in a deep voice: "Although the etiquette and prestige are properly handled, there is no clue about serious matters...... Wulang just said that Li Jing didn't see him, but there was no trace of the Huainan envoy. Li Chongjin is already ready to move, this matter is really worrying! ”

Zhao Guangyi reminded: "Brother Huang, our spies in Huainan have received news that Li Chongjin has indeed sent someone to Jinling...... Perhaps he is secretly in contact with the Tang people...... Maybe it's Zhao ...... Gorou doesn't know! ”

"In this way, quickly send someone to Jinling and inform Goro of this matter, so that he can investigate carefully, and don't be careful." Zhao Kuangyin said: "Li Chongjin is about to raise troops, and there can be no more incidents on the Jiangnan side." ”

"Well, the courtiers will do their best......" Zhao Guangyi groaned slightly, and said: "Brother Huang, the ins and outs of that night have not been clarified, and this paper is really surprising, and there are many doubts about him...... Could it be him...... If you don't report it, is it possible to be in the same stream? ”

"Since I dare to send him, I am sure that he will not." Zhao Kuangyin didn't say it, in fact, this is not an investigation?

Zhao Guangyi smiled faintly,

He didn't say anything more, just nodded slightly, not knowing what he was thinking.

"By the way, when you talk about it, I have some ideas, could his ability be taught by the Taoist priest of the traveling party?" Zhao Kuangyin suddenly groaned and asked.

"It is said that his martial arts were learned from Taoist priests, as for other ......" Zhao Guangyi shook his head lightly: "Maybe too!" ”

"Find a way to check!"

"Yes!" Zhao Guangyi nodded in agreement, but he knew that it was not easy.

"On the Huainan side, no matter whether Li Chongjin is really against him or not, he has to raise troops. Even if he retreats from the battle, I will force him to raise troops, and how can he allow others to snore and sleep next to the couch, how can he be a half-hearted feudal official. Zhao Kuangyin said: "In the near future, I will once again take the imperial drive to Huainan, and the affairs of Da Nei will be handed over to you, and you will guard Bianliang." ”

"Yes, don't worry, Brother Huang, Bianliang will be stable."

Zhao Kuangyin said: "I will ask Wu Tingzuo and Lu Yuqing to assist you, pay attention to the wind and grass, the autumn wind is about to rise, I am afraid that some people should not be able to bear the loneliness." ”

"Yes, my brother must be careful."

……

In Wei Wangfu, Fu Li looked at the manuscript sent by the sixth sister, there was a faint smile on the corner of her mouth, and her eyes couldn't help but turn a little red.

"This was sent from Jinling, and on the night of Qixi Festival, Zhao Wulang filled in at the banquet of King Zheng of the Tang Kingdom and specially sent it back."

Fu Liuniang said with a smile: "I didn't expect his martial arts to be good, not to mention his literary talents, and his literary talent is also so good, it is said that he is overpowering the Tang Kingdom, and even Li Congjia, the Zheng King of the Tang Kingdom, who has always been known for his name, is not as good as it, and now it is popular in the south of the Yangtze River...... Many people are speculating, who is the word Goro for? ”

"Hmm!"

"This is sent back to Bianliang by Kuaimami, and when the official family sees it, let me send it to you directly!"

Hearing the sixth sister say this, Fu Liqiao's face flushed slightly, and she was a little shy. saw that the manuscript read, "If the two love for a long time, how can it be in the morning and twilight", my heart was even sweeter. Is he pouring out the feelings of separation between the two places, comforting him and comforting himself?

As the sixth sister said, he is really magical, how many surprises do you not know, but you are moved? Fu Li looked at the manuscript stupidly, but his heart had already flown over Huaishui, over the river, and to Jinling.

……

From Bianliang to Jinling, it takes a lot of time to make a round trip in this era.

In order to pass on the news, the Great Song Dynasty sent all first-class elite soldiers, quickly whipped up, and even used flying birds, and waited for the news to be transmitted back to Bianliang, and then received Zhao Kuangyin's edict, it was already half a month later.

The news of Bianliang's arrival is very clear, Huainan Li Chongjin did send people to the Tang Kingdom, but he has been in Jinling for so many days, and he has not heard of it at all.

Zhao Kuangyin meant to let himself investigate carefully, and used some spies from the past and Zhou in Jinling, these people were personally planted by Chai Rong and had nothing to do with Li Chongjin.

Zhao Zheng was a little worried, so it seemed that Li Jing was a little intriguing if he didn't see him. Could it be that Li Chongjin's envoy has arrived and is secretly talking with Li Jing?

If so......

Zhao Zheng felt a trace of uneasiness in his heart, so the action he made was meaningless, and it was a bit like a clown jumping off the beam. However, fortunately, the secret agent got information from within the Southern Tang Dynasty, and there was no sign of this.

Li Chongjin's people obviously came to the Southern Tang Dynasty, but they didn't see Li Jing, what's going on?

Zhao Zheng pondered for a long time, remembering what he did on the night of Chen Qiao's mutiny, and suddenly realized. Regarding Huainan's contacts, he has gone into a misunderstanding.

If you want to talk about a project, do you have to go to the other party's decision-maker first?

For example, in later business cooperation, most of the initial negotiations were with the other party's department manager, project leader, etc. With eyebrows, there is a department manager who reports to the boss, and then the boss will finalize it.

Although the CEO is the decision-maker, he may not be more familiar with the project than the specific department manager, and the opportunity and difficulty of persuasion are relatively small. On the contrary, as long as you convince the department manager, it is much easier for him to convince his boss.

Chen Qiao's mutiny was in Dingli Courtyard on the night, and he did not first find Empress Dowager Du, but communicated with Zhao Yanran. It is easier to communicate with the shrewd and capable Zhao Yanran, on the contrary, Empress Dowager Du is old, easy to hesitate or even timid, and her understanding ability may not be able to keep up, and she may not believe in herself. And as long as she convinces Zhao Yanran, she will find a way to convince Empress Dowager Du, it is easier for a mother to believe in her daughter.

Now the Southern Tang Dynasty has the same situation, Li Jing and Empress Dowager Du have similar situations, he is not confused, but he is timid and fearful, and has no enterprising spirit. Li Chongjin realized this, and if he communicated directly with Li Jing, he might be directly rejected, or even counterattacked, and he would definitely make a mistake, so they found someone else. A person who is bold and courageous, and can influence Li Jing and the Southern Tang Dynasty, is probably like this!

But who is this man?

Looking at the Southern Tang Dynasty, there are not many such people, but there are also many of them, and it is difficult to determine for a while. This one needs to be traced further, even tentatively!

Now it is the end of July of the first year of Jianlong, and the day when Li Chongjin will raise troops is not far away, and the process of communicating with the Southern Tang Dynasty in private is definitely accelerating, and it has even begun to see its eyebrows.

There is not much time left for himself, Zhao Zheng can't help but be a little anxious, it seems that he must try his best to find out this negotiator who contacted Huainan, and he needs to meet Li Jing, the lord of the Southern Tang Dynasty.

Why don't you go and visit some Southern Tang ministers first? Tempting the real and the virtual? Zhao Zheng was planning, Li Yuan came to report, and Fan Shuqing asked to see him.

"Who?" Zhao Zheng seems to have heard this name, but it is a little unfamiliar.

Li Yuan bowed and said: "It was the scholar who Shaoqing saved at the gate of King Zheng's mansion that day." ”

"Oh!" Zhao Zheng suddenly asked, "What is he here to do, is he still in clothes?" This scholar is really serious. ”

"I'm here to return my clothes to thank you, but he whispered to his subordinates that he had something extremely important to report to your lordship."

Zhao Zheng's eyebrows moved, and he smiled: "Then please!" ”
