Hearing Chu Yange's words, Yao Ruoyu was slightly stunned, and wondered: "Didn't my Wenbang and the Song Dynasty have an alliance?"

Xu Xuanrong heard a little taste, and chuckled: "So, from today onwards, the Song Dynasty plans to recognize that my Wenbang is on an equal footing with you?"

"That's natural, sitting on the great literature of Sichuan and Chongqing, attacking and retreating, it can be regarded as a force that is already qualified to be the king after the three major dynasties of Song, Mengman, and Man. ”

Glancing at Xu Xuanrong, Chu Yangge's eyes seemed to be a little condensed, and then he smiled, "Now Mongolia already has two Eight Realms, and in the battle a few days ago, our dynasty lost many of the Seven Realms, making the current high-level combat power not much different from when the Jin Kingdom was still there." ”

Hearing what he meant, Yao Ruoyu smiled and said, "So in order to appease us, I am afraid that we will make trouble, so I plan to admit that our status is not vassal, right?"

Glancing at him, Chu Madge sneered, "What do you think?"

Yao Ruoyu smiled awkwardly, hugged his fists and said: "No matter what, my Dawen city-state will always submit to the Great Song Dynasty and be willing to be a vassal, and you can convey this to Hangdu on behalf of the King of Chu." ”

"I'll pass it on. Chu Madge said lightly.

Xu Xuanrong heard some meaning in these words, and hesitated: "Dare to ask the King of Chu, isn't the Great Song Dynasty going to look for us to go back to Chongqing?"

Yao Ruoyu was stunned when he heard this, turned his head to look, Chu Yangge raised his eyebrows, and said with a smile: "Miss Xu is really smart. ”

This naturally acknowledged Xu Xuanrong's inquiry, but Yao Ruoyu laughed on the side, saying that Xu Xuanrong was very smart, that is, he was stupid?

If it weren't for the fact that the other party was an Emperor of the Eight Realms Venerable level powerhouse, he really wanted to immediately draw his sword and chop the other party into meat sauce.

Sensing the resentment in Yao Ruoyu's heart, Chu Yangge smiled faintly and said slowly: "Our dynasty has reached an agreement with Mongolia, and Mongolia will return all the money and property looted in various ways before, but in exchange, we need to hand over the north of Shaanxi and Gansu to them. ”

Seeing Yao Ruoyu frowning, Chu Yangge smiled: "Gansu is close to the outside of the Guan, and for my Great Song Dynasty, it is a tasteless chicken rib, and if you lose it, you will lose it, but Shaanxi Dao, to put it mildly, with the current strength of my Great Song Dynasty, I am afraid it will be difficult to completely defend Shaanxi, so giving them half is a barely acceptable result." ”

"But those local people ......" Yao Ruoyu stopped abruptly halfway through his words, he is not a fool, for Chu Yangge and other high-level people, it is already a fortunate thing to be able to exchange for the resources of various places before, and the transaction is just the territory that was originally in the hands of the Jin State, what those people think, they don't care at all.

"So, the Chongqing Mansion Road can be given to you," Chu Madge said indifferently, "but in exchange, all the places you occupied before need to be transferred to Mongolia." ”

Seeing Yao Ruoyu silently, Xu Xuanrong quietly held his hand, and Zhang Ziqiang and Li Yijian, who saw this scene, couldn't help but widen their eyes and looked over in shock.

"Yes. Xu Xuanrong smiled.

Glancing at Xu Xuanrong, Chu Madge didn't ask what you can do, but just bowed his head slightly: "Chu Zheng will stay and take those people from the Ministry of Rites to discuss the specific matters of the covenant with you." ”

When Chu Zheng heard this, he also bowed, and Xu Xuanrong returned the salute with a smile, and agreed to come down one by one instead of Yao Ruoyu.

After the matter was finished, Chu Yangge turned around and left directly, while Zhang Ziqiang, Li Yijian, and Chu Zheng stayed.

Chu Zheng naturally wanted to discuss the details of the covenant, while Zhang Ziqiang and Li Yijian took advantage of the end of the war to take half a month's leave to recuperate here.

Of course, Zhang Ziqiang is naturally pure recuperation and relaxation, but what about Li Yijian...... Hey, hey, you get it.

After asking about the location of Jiang Siyu's mansion, Li Yijian immediately said goodbye and left, Xu Xuanrong also returned to King Wen's palace with Chu Zheng, and Zhang Ziqiang glanced at Yao Ruoyu, who was still silent, and said with a smile: "Brother Yao, come back to your senses." ”

"I've come back to my senses, but I just don't want to speak. Yao Ruoyu sighed and sighed.

Zhang Ziqiang said with a smile: "Shaanxi Province has been in the hands of the Jin State for more than ten years, but most of the younger generation think they are Jin people, even if they barely occupy the entire territory of Shaanxi Province, I am afraid that there are constant internal and external troubles, it is better to give up half to Mongolia, which is a good thing for most people." ”

"What about the small number of people?" Yao Ruoyu muttered, then laughed dumbly, shook his head and said, "Don't talk about these bad things, why do you want to come over? What about your two daughters-in-law?"

"It's both in the barracks," Zhang Ziqiang scratched his head and said with a smile, "Fei Fei and Shuting are also masters of the Five Realms now, temporarily help me sit in the god-killing camp, and set off to Jingzhao Mansion with the others." ”

"Jingzhao Mansion?" Yao Ruoyu was slightly stunned, and nodded after reacting, "So the Chu Wangfu is planning to move to Shaanxi Province?"

Zhang Ziqiang sighed and said with a wry smile: "Yes, Shaanxi Province has just been recovered, and the people's hearts are in turmoil, not to mention that half of it is occupied by the Mongols. ”

"It's okay, otherwise if I occupy Chongqing, but you will be homeless, then the sin will be great. Yao Ruoyu smiled foolishly.

"How do I hear how do I think you're sneering?" Rolling his eyes, Zhang Ziqiang scolded with a smile, "Why didn't you say it when your father-in-law was here just now?"

"Do I think my life is long?" Yao Ruoyu smiled, and the avenue of casting shadows took Zhang Zi to strengthen into two flowing shadows and rose into the sky, and in the blink of an eye, he had already disappeared into the Chengdu Mansion.

*——*——*——*

Due to the alliance matter brought by Chu Yangge suddenly, the Sixth Department of Dawen temporarily stopped discussing the matter of selecting officials from various places, and instead concentrated on dealing with the people of the Great Song Rite Department led by Chu Zheng.

said that it was an alliance of equal status, but in fact, it was just that the Great Song Dynasty was worried that the powerful Wen State would have chaos because of the two powerful foreign enemies of Mongolia and Nanban, so it deliberately used the alliance to appease them.

Xu Xuanrong and the others also knew the severity, so naturally they didn't really think that the Dawen city-state was qualified to sit on an equal footing with the Song Dynasty.

Originally, according to this situation, Wenbang's side would definitely fall into a disadvantage in negotiations, but Xu Xuanrong actually called Wu Xue over to observe, and as a result, Chu Zheng, who was on the list of splendid plots, was suddenly in chaos.

This move naturally aroused Song Kai and Wu Xue's dissatisfaction, but for the sake of Wenbang's benefit, they acquiesced to Xu Xuanrong's use.

However, Chu Zheng was a first-class strategist after all, and after the hasty panic of the previous two days, he quickly calmed down.

After all, because of Song Kai's interception of Chu Zheng's letter, he had rushed to Chengdu Mansion to meet Wu Xue in person, and the two had already made it clear at that time that it would not be possible, so no matter how much he missed this woman, Chu Zheng did not lose an inch again.

Ten days later, the two sides formally finalized the content of the covenant.

Dawen retained the territory of Minzhou and other areas of Longnan, and handed over all the cities north of Longnan to the Great Song Dynasty, and the Song Dynasty also recognized that Chongqing Fulu was officially owned by Wenbang.

After the negotiations, Chu Zheng and others also left Chengdu Mansion.

At the same time, the atmosphere at the top of Chengdu Mansion has become strange again.

Around the selection of officials in the prefectures and counties of Chongqing Fulu, the major forces have also taken action again.

*——*——*——*

Households.

Bai Qiuyu flipped through the information in his hand, put it down after a long time, rubbed his temples silently, and said lightly: "Didn't Qu Feng agree?"

"Yes. Li De nodded slightly.

Seeing Bai Qiuyu looking over, Zhu Qing smiled bitterly: "I have already visited Ma Shoucai, but this person has not even seen me, saying that there is a difference between men and women." ”

The corners of his lips twitched slightly, and Bai Qiuyu smiled: "That's it, since these people from Chongqing Mansion Road don't know how to lift, they don't need to pay more attention to them, anyway, they are new to the world, and they serve as a state pastor, as long as they don't make friends at will, and they don't want to help." ”

"But I'm afraid that they will form a group to promote the people who used to be on Chongqing Fulu," Zhu Qingliu frowned slightly, and hesitated, "Autumn rain, I still have to guard against it!"

Shaking his head, Bai Qiuyu said with a smile: "Senior sister is too worried, among those people, the only one who is most valued by the prince is Deng Yitong, and the others are just gifts that come with recruiting Deng Yitong, and they can't make any splash." ”

At this time, there were six people in the house in addition to Bai Qiuyu, four of whom were the four directors of the household department, and the remaining Zhu Qing and Li De were the directors of the Huimin Hall and the Bangli Hall of the Ministry of Rites respectively, and they were also Bai Junru's disciples, who belonged to Bai Qiuyu's faction.

Seeing the conversation between several people, Wang Dade, director of the Finance Department of the Ministry of Households, muttered: "These old people in Chongqing Fulu don't pay attention to it for the time being, and now in the entire six departments, those who are qualified to snatch the position of commander with us are the Dali relics, the Liao people and several other ministers." ”

"If there is no accident in the Dali relics, they should nominate someone with higher qualifications in Duan Li or the Duan clan," Li De pursed his lips, "As for the other ministers, I'm afraid only Xu Xuanrong and Song Kai of the Nawen Party need to be careful." ”

Thinking of Song Kai and Xu Xuanrong, Bai Qiuyu's eyes couldn't help but float a little gloomy, no matter how confident he was, he didn't dare to say that his status in Yao Ruoyu's heart was higher than the previous two, if the other party really wanted to take it, I am afraid that he really did not have much chance of winning.

Zhu Qing stroked his hair and chuckled: "Actually, I think that Xu Xuanrong, Song Kai, Guo Fengjie, and Wen Yuancai don't have to worry too much, although they are in a high position, but it's not nice to say, who can they recommend?"

Everyone in the room was stunned when they heard this, looked at each other, and suddenly smiled easily.

Since the establishment of Wenbang, although the major factions have not fiercely conquered, they basically know each other's details, and they can list out which capable people they have.

"When will Senior Brother arrive?" Bai Qiuyu suddenly looked at Zhu Qing, who replied, "I already set off yesterday, and I can arrive tomorrow morning." ”

"It's okay, you've worked hard these days," Bai Qiuyu exhaled a breath of turbidity and said solemnly, "When Senior Brother becomes the commander of Chongqing Road, the strength of my Bai Party will be enough to increase several times, and the Dali remnants will not be able to compete with us at that time." ”
