Chapter 33 Zhun Ru exposes the princess to gold
Qin Songen's troubles were not worth mentioning at all in front of He Lingtu.
When he heard that the Wei delegation had also arrived in the capital and stayed in the guest house next door, He Lingtu instructed Mixing: "Third brother, please take a trip." He smiled slightly, "After waiting so long, it's time for our revenge." ”
Mi Xing understood what he meant, nodded and went out.
That night, a fire broke out in the guest house where Wei was staying, and more than 300 people from the Wei delegation died in the fire that night, and not a single person was left alive.
The monarch of Wei was furious and demanded that Ye immediately hand over the murderer, and at the same time, the army that had already withdrawn north was once again stationed on the border, eyeing Ye again, and could fight with Ye again at any time, and a big war was about to break out.
However, everyone knows who the murderer is, but whether the murderer is handed over has become a big problem.
That night, a small sedan chair in Tsing Yi entered the residence of the Dawan Mission Guest House, and did not even get off the sedan chair at the front door, but was directly carried by someone into the courtyard where He Lingtu lived.
After getting off the sedan chair, the person who got down from the sedan chair was the first-class minister of Daye, and now he Chaozhi, the prime minister who controls most of the power of the imperial court.
Fu Jin had been waiting outside the door for a long time, and when he saw He Chaozhi coming, he silently welcomed him into the house.
In the inner room, the candle flame danced dimly.
He Lingtu was reclining on the couch, concentrating on playing with himself, and when he saw He Chaozhi coming in, he didn't get up, still looking at the chessboard intently, until He Chaozhi knelt down in front of him, and then raised his head and motioned for his subordinates to pour tea for him.
"Lord He, I came late at night, I don't know what to do?"
After He Lingtu finished speaking in Dawan, Fu Jin, who was standing on the side, translated these words into Ye Guo's official dialect and told He Chaozhi.
"Second prince, we don't say secret words." He Chaozhi waved his hand and motioned for the interpreter he brought to the side to step back, "I know that you will speak to my Daye official, and I don't want too many people to know what I want to say tonight, and I ask the second prince to forgive me." ”
He Lingtu looked at him and smiled silently, but he also waved his hand to signal the people who were serving on the left to retreat, and replied in the authentic Ye Guoguan's words: "Listen up."
He Chaozhi saw that the people around He Lingtu were gone, so he said, "Why did the second prince ask knowingly? You are so bold, you actually shot at the Wei people in my Daye capital, aren't you afraid to explain yourself here? ”
He Lingtu smiled: "Lord He's courage is not small! Come here alone in the middle of the night, aren't you afraid that you won't be able to get out of the guest house tonight like those Wei people? His tone was not the slightest bit vicious, but his words were enough to make people tremble.
He Chaozhi didn't see a trace of panic on his face, and he also looked at He Lingtu very calmly: "Although this is the garrison of the Dawan Mission, the second prince can know that outside the State Guest House, it may have already been surrounded by our Daye army. If the old man did not go out safely before dawn..... The old man is old, and he doesn't know how old he is to live, but the second prince, you are in your prime, and you will definitely do something in the future, do you really want to stay here with the old man? Hehehe, I remember, Chagan Khan is not the only prince, right?"
When He Lingtu heard this, he sneered slightly: "Yes, of course, my father Khan is not only my son, but I am the only prince who is interested in forming an alliance with Ye in Dawan." He paused, "Since Lord He is not afraid of death and is willing to serve Ye Guo with death, of course I will not stop him." But you're so well-informed, you should know my big brother, right? He was the first son of the Zo clan and my father Khan, and in your words, the eldest son of the rightful son. I don't know if Lord He has gotten the news, my eldest brother is not very friendly to Ye Ren? I remember him once saying,
He dropped the chess pieces in his hand and stood up, turned his back to He Chaozhi, looked at the bright moon hanging in the sky outside the window and said: "Lord He, you don't need me to teach it, don't you Ye Guo have a saying that 'you must be in chaos if you are constantly decided', it is impossible to bet between Dawan and Wei at both ends, and neither monarch will allow this kind of behavior on both sides of the wall." ”
He turned to look at He Chaozhi and said lightly: "This king is also kind-hearted, and he wants to help Ye Guo make a decision as soon as possible." Isn't it clear which side to throw at now? ”
After He Lingtu's words were finished, a trace of hesitation finally appeared on He Chaozhi's face, who had always been silent, he struggled for a moment, and finally bowed to He Lingtu and said: "Okay, within three days at the latest, the old man will find a way to make the emperor stamp the national letter and send it to the prince." ”
He Lingtu waved his hand: "It's late." ”
He Chaozhi's eyes narrowed slightly, revealing a fine light: "What do you mean?" ”
He Lingtu took out a stack of chapter-like things from the shelf behind the couch and threw it in front of He Chaozhi: "Isn't this the national letter handed over by the Wei people?" A million ingots for the army, five million ingots of silver, and a million horses of cloth..."
He Chaozhi picked up the stack of papers, and looked through the armistice agreement handed over by the Wei people word for word, he was terrified in his heart, he didn't expect that the hand of the Dawan people was so long, and there were also their spies in the Daye court.
He Lingtu looked down from a high place, taking in the changing colors on He Chaozhi's face, and he chuckled: "Wei is our defeated subordinate, and the conditions we put forward naturally cannot be lower than theirs. For the sake of Prime Minister He's hard work, we don't want much, but it's just one percent higher than the one in the Wei State Book. ”
He walked up to He Chaozhi and patted him lightly on the shoulder: "Don't worry, we won't be as unreasonable as Wei Ren." Knowing that your Ye country's treasury is empty, you may not be able to take out so many things at once, so you are allowed to use the princess to discount 5,000 gold ingots, the royal daughter to 1,000 ingots, and the noble lady to 500 silver ingots to pay off the debt. ”
He smiled at He Chaozhi's side head, but there was deep malice hidden in the seemingly indifferent smile: "This is the king's punishment for you snakes and rats, go ahead!" Now that you have offended Lord Wei, you don't want to offend Dawan again, right? ”
After speaking, he no longer paid attention to He Chaozhi, and instructed Fu Jin outside the door: "Come on, send off!" ”
