In the mansion prepared by Honglu Temple for foreign envoys, there is a hall that is open on all sides and has no walls, and the people in it can enjoy the natural beauty of the surroundings without hindrance on a sunny day, and it is also used as a place to entertain Wu Heng and his party.

On the table in front of everyone, melons, fruits, wine and food were all available, and the officials of the Jin State and the envoys of the Kingdom of Wei and others gathered together, but before they could talk a few words, the atmosphere was slightly dignified.

First of all, Wu Heng deliberately used words to punish Chen Jing to kill Chen Jing, but Chen Jing immediately counterattacked with the other party not getting the order of Emperor Wei, and this time the envoy was clearly unjustifiable.

If it is said that Chen Jing killed the monarch and disrupted power, and the dictatorship is often a transgression of etiquette, then Duan Mu Shuofeng dared to send envoys to other countries without permission before he ascended the throne, wouldn't this also be a transgression of etiquette?

Seeing that the atmosphere in the room became a little delicate because of two sentences, Wu Heng, who took the initiative to provoke the war, suddenly laughed and said: "Hahahaha, Dazai is wrong, my prince has already communicated with His Majesty the Emperor, but it is too cumbersome to issue a decree from the capital, and my prince is not a person who pays attention to red tape and does not hesitate to waste time, so he sent him to visit in advance, and the official documents will arrive in a few days, Dazai does not need to worry." ”

In fact, he didn't mean to give these people of the Jin Kingdom a bad face, on the contrary, he came to take a look for Duanmu Shuofeng, to investigate whether this Chen Dazai had the ability to cooperate with them, if it was just a flashy and unrealistic straw bag, then they would still choose to find an opportunity to swallow the Jin Kingdom directly, instead of seeking cooperation.

If the other party's ability is not good, they would rather fight the loss and quickly eat the Jin Kingdom, delay the time to attack Liang, and are not willing to waste time talking about cooperation.

A mediocre, even stupid ally, will only lag behind on the battlefield, and sometimes even lose you more than your enemies.

Regarding Wu Heng's words, Chen Jing just took a sip of wine with a flat expression and didn't say anything.

However, some officials of the Jin Kingdom saw that the atmosphere was not good, so they hurriedly came forward to play a round and said: "I heard that Brother Wu has never been to the Jin Kingdom, so he must have never tasted the food of our Jin Kingdom, these are the freshest sea fish, Brother Wu might as well taste them." ”

The topography of the Jin Kingdom is close to the sea, in order to allow the princes and nobles living in the capital to eat the freshest seafood, so a wharf was specially opened, together with the canal to the sea, gradually, even the people of the capital can eat sea fish during the festival.

Wu Heng looked at a steamed grouper on the plate in front of him, smelled the fragrance, suddenly moved his index finger, and arched his hand: "Then Wu is disrespectful." ”

Wu Heng first reached out and brushed up his sleeve, then picked up a small piece of fish meat with chopsticks, dipped it in a little light sauce on the plate, and then put it in his mouth and chewed it slowly.

A mouthful of fish meat entered his mouth, and Wu Heng's eyes suddenly lit up.

"The sage said, don't get tired of eating, don't get tired of fine, so you show the word of etiquette. Wu Heng ate the fish and took another sip of the tea to eliminate the appetite, and then stretched out his thumb and praised, "Extremely tender." ”

The officials of the Jin Kingdom on the other side suddenly let out a friendly laugh, and one of them raised his glass and said loudly: "I salute Brother Wu for a glass." ”

Wu Heng also grabbed the wine glass and politely returned the salute.

The matter of face, which was originally given to each other, eating delicious food, chatting and toasting, such a back and forth, soon diluted the unfriendly atmosphere at the beginning, and turned into a banquet for the guests and hosts.

No one was in a hurry to talk about the affairs of the family and the country, but with the wine in the cup, they praised each other, chatted, ate and drank, and it was a welcome banquet.

After all, it is not an official mission, and it cannot be received in the specifications of a state banquet.

Although these people who originally came from the Patriotic Embassy were very unhappy about this, they didn't say much directly at the banquet, one was afraid of the power of the Duanmu prince, and the other was that they didn't want to fight in the same room in front of outsiders, and they lost face, and the third was that they didn't know the purpose of this Wu Heng's coming, and it was not good to offend them rashly, so even if they were put on a table today and deliberately arranged at the last table, they also endured it, these people have been in the Jin Kingdom for so many years, and they are not fools, knowing that they want to use them as guns against their own family, how can they let the other party get their wish？

During the banquet, even Dazai Chen Jing, who had the highest status present, only drank silently and did not clearly show any attitude, but Wu Heng knew that it would be time for the two sides to have preliminary negotiations until everyone left, and it was not in a hurry now.

--------------------------------------------------------

After the banquet, it was time to hand over the residence, this exquisite mansion, which was originally built by Honglu Temple in order to highlight the national strength of the Jin State, and for the envoys of other countries, under the insistent request of Wu Heng, he did not choose to go to the Patriotic Embassy to live, but chose to take his own people to live here alone.

The Patriotic Embassy belongs to the official manpower of the Imperial Court, the crown prince Duanmu Shuofeng did not communicate with the imperial court in advance this time, and overstepped the rules in a grand manner, and directly sent an envoy, the capital must be unhappy, even if the emperor loves Duanmu Shuofeng again, he will definitely not be happy with his attitude of no one in his eyes, and even his father is not in his eyes, then there is no need for himself and others to be looked down upon and restrained in the past, and the attitude of the Patriotic Embassy has been seen from the first time they met, so he will decide to live here, and then send someone to contact him there。

It's best to be able to negotiate, and there will be more people who can use it at that time, if you can't negotiate well, then do your own thing, don't disturb each other, if you want to do something disgusting behind your back, then don't blame me Wu Heng is not welcome.

After the handover, Chen Jing stood alone at the door, standing with his hands down, waiting quietly, the other officials naturally understood, and hurriedly dragged the others together, quickly away, and even the staff of the Patriotic Embassy here also left with interest, ready to go back and hurriedly submit a letter to the court, criticizing the arrogance of the prince Duanmu Shuofeng's subordinates.

When all the outsiders left, Wu Heng was left alone and stood side by side with Chen Jing.

The two stood together at the door, looking at the lush trees in the yard in a daze.

After a while, Wu Heng, who was still burdened with heavy responsibilities in the end, couldn't help it first and broke the silence.

"Dazai should know what I mean by this trip. ”

Chen Jing stared at the inconspicuous wildflowers in the yard, neither nodded nor shook his head, and said in a very flat tone: "Naturally, when I first saw Prince Duanmu, he was sharp-edged, and he looked like nothing in the world, and I naturally understood his ambition." ”

The reason why Wu Heng got straight to the point and said it directly was because he knew that everyone was a smart person, and there was no need to make so many detours.

This is the most typical young man's idea, he doesn't care about the consequences at all, although Wu Heng agrees with this approach, he feels that this is not a clever means.

However, in Chen Jing's own opinion, if he wrestles with Cai Jing and invests in the game of manpower on both sides, the Jin Kingdom will only lose more in this game.

Wu Heng didn't have any objection to his comments on Duanmu Shuofeng, because he knew that Duanmu Shuofeng was indeed such a person, and there was no need to hide it.

He just shook the feather fan and asked very bluntly, "Then what does Dazai think about this?"

Chen Jing suddenly raised his head, looked at the sky in the distance, and was silent for a long time, and then said slowly: "I, Chen Jing, have no selfish desires, the Jin Kingdom is still the Jin Kingdom of the Shangguan family." ”

Wu Heng was stunned for a moment, and then he understood what he meant, and his face suddenly became serious, and he no longer had the chic appearance of talking and laughing just now, but nodded very solemnly towards Chen Jing, indicating that he understood.

Chen Jing retracted his gaze, turned his head, and said in a deep voice: "For the trip to the court in two days, please prepare for your Excellency." ”

Wu Heng understands that this is a feast he arranged for himself, whether the Jin Kingdom agrees to the alliance or not, it all depends on his ability, and he said it in advance, naturally because this Chen Dazai himself is inclined to agree, but he is not a lone husband, whether he succeeds or not, it also depends on everyone's opinions.

But that's enough.

Wu Heng turned around and bowed solemnly towards Chen Jing, this time, his hands raised high, even beyond his eyebrows, and then bowed deeply, more solemnly than when he faced the officials of the Jin Kingdom at the gate of the capital.

Chen Jing returned the same salute with an expressionless face, then flicked his sleeves and turned to leave.

The officials of the Jin State who had been waiting at the door did not have the courage to look at it, but gathered together and waited silently, and now when they saw Chen Jing coming out, they hurriedly lowered their heads and followed behind, and left.

The others who came with Wu Heng, Duanmu Shuofeng's subordinates saw everything that had just happened in their eyes, and at this time they stepped forward and couldn't help but ask, "Sir, why do you make such a big gift?"

There are three kinds of Confucian rituals, a pair of elders, a pair of peers, and a pair of juniors or return the courtesy, and just now Wu Heng's hand was raised above the center of his eyebrows, leaning over nearly half, which is the "heavenly gift" that will only be done to the elders, in their opinion, this is simply an incomprehensible thing.

You know, this gentleman is facing the prince, and it is just a plain courtesy, how can this person be able to be worshiped by Mr.?

Wu Heng looked at Chen Jing's steady back in the distance, and used the technique of looking forward to qi, and in a trance, he seemed to see the national fortune of the Jin Kingdom pressing on his shoulders, and the heavy burden made him can't help but sigh softly: "Don't treat the countryman lightly, this person's demeanor, no one in the Jin Kingdom can match it!"

The others looked at each other in surprise.

The word Guoshi, originated from the beginning of the establishment of the Great Zhou Dynasty, the Great Zhou Taizu treated the corporal, which was originally used to describe the talents who were treated favorably by the monarch, and later referred to the most outstanding talents in a country, which is the pinnacle of scholars, and the most respected realm of Confucianism.

This kind of person can be used to represent a country.

It is not an exaggeration to say that such praise is the highest praise.

But who is he Wu Heng?

It was the first time they met, so that Duanmu Shuofeng such a proud person was treated as a guest, a disciple, and treated as a gentleman, such a person, praising Chen Jing as a national soldier, suddenly opened the eyes of the patriots who followed, and finally knew what kind of person this young Dazai was.

Wu Heng looked at the people who were getting farther and farther away, and there were actually all kinds of thoughts in his heart that he couldn't say.

He wanted to say, if you Chen Jing dare to change the dynasty and directly replace the Shangguan family, I, Wu Heng, will leave Weiguo Fuzhi, but it's a pity, it's a pity!

But in an instant, he couldn't help but shake his head lightly, because if the other party really dared to usurp the throne, then he would become the most ordinary rebel and thief, how could such a person enter his own eyes?

If you don't come to the south, this person may be able to continue the national fortune of the Jin Kingdom for decades, which is a pity, sad, and a pity!

But for the sake of defending the country, you will have to be sacrificed in the future.

Is there anything more sad in this world than killing a soldier with your own hands?

Wu Heng couldn't help but have a slight heat in his eyes, and after rectifying his mood for a long time, he finally turned his head and instructed his subordinates in a deep voice: "You go out to contact the people, collect more information about this Chen Dazai, even if it is noticed, it doesn't matter, and then send people to the embassy to contact us, if they can help us, it will naturally be good, if not, that's it, remember, don't have a conflict with them." ”

The others looked stunned, and quickly clenched their fists and agreed, "Yes, sir." ”()
