Chapter 393: Who's Going
Emperor Liang muttered: "We have some manpower in Liao, but it is not easy to get close to Liao Khan. ”
It's not easy, but it's almost impossible, just like the truth that Liao's fine work can't get close to Emperor Liang's body, it is also difficult for Liang's fine work to get close to Liao Khan's body.
Unless......
Emperor Liang looked up at the ministers below, "Unless you can convince Wen Dihan first, if you have his help, it's okay." ”
The ministers were silent, and Cui Zheng thought for a while and said: "You can give it a try, although I don't know if it can succeed, it's an opportunity." ”
The military department also had no opinion, and everyone finally barely reached a consensus when they quarreled here.
"Hongzhou also has to give an order, let Zhong Ruying not be too hasty," Min Shangshu considered the overall situation almost instantly, and said with a calm face: "We just don't know anything, wait for the Chu envoy to negotiate, and then delay the time, as long as the Liao side can stop fighting, we will send troops, if not, we will recall Zhong Ruying to temporarily calm the dispute with Chu." ”
"If you please both ends, you are afraid that you will not be able to get good at one end." Some ministers frowned and said: "It's better to have a temporary truce on the Hongzhou side, and wait for the Liao side to sit down." ”
"No, what if Xishu doesn't fight if he doesn't fight?" The military department Shangshu and Cui Zheng blocked in unison.
Lin Qingwan also said: "My Daliang is not a cowardly and small country, are you still afraid that they will be held accountable?" Moreover, the transmission of information is slow, and we always need a time limit to deal with things, even if we delay the time, as long as the time is within a reasonable range, they will not dare to do anything. ”
Cui Zheng nodded, "So we have to choose a good person in advance to deal with the Chu envoy." ”
Everyone glanced at the four princes, and before Cui Zheng could shake his head, Lin Qingwan had already said, "The four princes are not suitable." ”
"That's right," Ren Shangshu said: "If the fourth prince comes forward, I'm afraid that the Chu envoy will force him to make a decision immediately, and he has to choose someone who is a big official but does not have enough power to speak." ”
Emperor Liang stretched out his finger and knocked on the table and said, "It's not early, Aiqing will go down to eat first, and we'll talk about it after dinner." ”
Only then did everyone realize that it was past noon, and their stomachs were indeed a little hungry, so they got up and saluted and retired.
The emperor ordered Cui Zheng, Min Shangshu of the Ministry of War and Ren Shangshu of the Ministry of Industry stayed to eat together, and the four princes and Lin Qingwan were naturally also left.
The five of them followed the emperor to the lounge at the back, and Emperor Liang sat down on the main seat and looked at Lin Qingwan with a smile, "You are the rescuer moved by Ruying?" ”
Lin Qingwan bowed slightly and said, "I really can't hide anything from Your Majesty." ”
The emperor sighed, "Last time you rushed into Beijing for her, I didn't expect to come again for her." ”
Lin Qingwan didn't expect it herself, she lowered her head and said, "It's us who worried Your Majesty." ”
Emperor Liang waved his hand and said, "It's all for this big Liang, how can I blame you?" ”
When the incident first came out, everyone said that Zhong Ruying was for personal revenge, and before her excerpt arrived, the emperor also thought so.
But after reading the excerpt, no one will think that Zhong Ruying is a personal vendetta.
Yes, Daliang's current situation looks good, but in fact, it is full of dangers.
When the meal was delivered, the emperor waved his hand, and all the palace people in the house retreated, leaving only one Liu Gonggong by his side.
Lin Qingwan and they knew that the main event was coming.
In the front hall just now, it was clear that the matter of Liao was more urgent, but everyone still talked about the matter of Hongzhou first, because the matter of Wendihan was confidential, and the less people knew the details, the safer.
Not everyone is eligible to participate.
As the proposer, Lin Qingwan can sit here, and the fourth prince is one of the future heirs of Da Liang, so he can naturally be here.
Cui Zheng and the secretary of the military department are not to mention, and Ren Shangshu is here because he once served as the secretary of the Imperial Academy, and he also followed the deceased Li Shangshu to negotiate in Liao.
At that time, Lin Ying was still there, and after he defeated the Liao army, the two countries had peace talks, and at that time, Ren Shangshu was not long in time with the crown, as a secretary who went to record the documents of the peace talks between the two countries.
The people who went to Daliao back then are now alive with Ren Shangshu.
Before he became the secretary of the Ministry of Industry, he was the secretary of the Lifan Academy, and he was most familiar with the situation in Liao.
Sure enough, before the meal was eaten, the emperor began to ask about Ren Shangshuliao's situation.
Liao Khan Shuhu is younger than Emperor Liang, but he is different from Emperor Liang, Emperor Liang has spent almost his whole life in the palace, although he is poor, he has never eaten or drunk, and because he pays attention to health and has the imperial doctor, he is very well maintained.
But Shuhu has been in the southern and northern wars, he is the victor after the Liao civil strife, but the victor also has to subdue the rebellious tribes one by one, so although he is a few years younger than Emperor Liang, his body is far inferior to Emperor Liang.
The news that he was critically ill came out a few years ago, but his breath has been holding on, and he just doesn't let go.
He has a lot of sons, and Ren Shangshu knows about twelve, and only five can live to adulthood, and there are only three that Ren Shangshu can remember.
One is Ganler, one is Ganzhun, and the other is Wendihan.
Ganle and Ganzhun have the same father and mother, their mother is the eldest princess, and the Liao people don't pay attention to what the elders are, but about strength, their own strength and the strength of their mother's family.
So the two brothers have always been strong contenders for the throne, and they are constantly competing with each other.
And Wen Dihan is just the opposite, he relied on his own strength to make Ren Shangshu remember him, and his background is not very good.
His mother was born to a slave girl captured by the Liao Khan during the Southern and Northern Wars, and it is said that his mother was the personal maid of a tribal prince, so life was not easy after being brought back to the royal court by Shuhu.
Wendihan was no different from a slave as a child, but he went into battle at the age of nine, following the twelve-year-old cadre.
When he was fifteen years old, Shuhu fell into a trap during his expedition to Jiagu, and when he died, it was Wendihan who led the troops to rescue him, and he only began to take charge of the army from then on.
In the following ten years, he participated in many battles, won more and lost less, so he was very prestigious in the royal court, and now he is a general of the Liao State.
It's just that he doesn't have the support of his mother's family, so it's hard to fight for the throne.
But Ren Shangshu, like Lin Qingwan, didn't think he would be willing to be just a general, he said: "This person is ambitious and capable, and he may be able to cooperate with him, but he also needs to be extremely vigilant." ”
Lin Qingwan bowed, "The enmity between Liang and Liao is too deep, and if you look for Ganle and Ganzhun they are afraid that they will not believe us, and most of them will not cooperate with us, but Wendihan is different." ”
Min Shangshu asked, "Then who does the county lord think is more suitable to be this lobbyist?" ”
Lin Qingwan lowered her eyes and was silent.
Ren Shangshu sighed and said: "It's a pity that Haoyu has gone, otherwise he is the most suitable person, and the world can be called a three-inch incorruptible tongue, except for Mr. Ji, it is Haoyu and Chen Jian of Fujian." ”
Chen Jian is the prime minister of Fujian, they don't have to think about it, although Mr. Ji is in Chu State, he also has a great impression of Liang State, and he can fight for it, but now the time is urgent, and he obviously can't wait to pull people over.
And Lin Haoyu died again, and the people in the Manchu Dynasty couldn't find anyone who could be trusted.
Cui Zheng said slowly: "I think Lord Lin is also very suitable. ”
"Since this matter was mentioned by the county lord, most of the county lords already have a plan in their hearts, and in terms of understanding the Liao people, who is comparable to the Lin family in the whole world?"
The fourth prince frowned and said: "But the Lin family has a big enmity with Liao, those Liao people can't wait for the Lin family to be annihilated, the third sister is too dangerous in the past, right?" ”
Cui Zheng smiled and said: "It is precisely because Lord Lin is the Lin family that this shows the sincerity of our Liang, doesn't it?" ”
Min Shangshu thought about it and bowed slightly, obviously agreeing with Cui Zheng's words.
Ren Shangshu looked left and right, and was silent, he also felt that Lin Qingwan was the most suitable, but maybe he wouldn't be able to come back this time.
Lin Qingwan looked at the emperor and said, "Your Majesty, the minister is willing to go to the Liao Kingdom to persuade Wen Dihan." ”
Emperor Liang frowned and didn't speak, obviously hesitating, "Can't I find a suitable man in Liang?" ”
Lin Qingwan smiled: "Does Your Majesty look down on my daughter?" ”
Min Shangshu hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, how can the county lord be regarded as an ordinary daughter, you look at the county lord Zhong, she is no worse than an ordinary man." ”
"Don't, you still treat me as an ordinary daughter," Lin Qingwan smiled and said: "Your Majesty, what an ordinary man can do, an ordinary daughter can naturally do, and what an ordinary man can do, a non-ordinary daughter can naturally do." ”
The emperor couldn't help but shake his head and laugh, "When, you're still poor." ”
Lin Qingwan said righteously: "The minister is not a poor mouth, he sincerely thinks so." ”
She said solemnly: "The minister hopes that His Majesty will use me, because I also have the heart to serve the country and the people, and I also have the desire to make contributions." You give me the right, and I do my best to fulfill the obligation. If I do something, you will reward it, and if I do a crime, you will punish it, and this is all sincere. ”
The emperor looked at Lin Qingwan in surprise, "Do you want to be an official?" ”
Cui Zheng and the others also looked at her in surprise.
Lin Qingwan straightened her back and smiled: "Yes, Your Majesty is willing to reward me with an official?" ”
The emperor asked solemnly, "What kind of official do you want to be?" ”
"Let's just take care of the Shangshu of the Domain," she said with a smile, "Let the minister have a famous envoy to the Liao State." ”
Everyone relaxed, and the emperor also looked at her with a sigh and said, "You child, I know that you want to share your worries for the country, but you have to think clearly, this matter is different from the past, and you may not be able to come back if you are not careful." ”
"The minister knows," Lin Qingwan said solemnly: "But after Dingzhou, there are thousands of people in Daliang, for the sake of Daliang, everyone dies, but only the minister can't die?" ”
Emperor Liang was so moved that his eyes were red, that is, Cui Zheng and Min Shangshu were a little touched, and they looked at Lin Qingwan speechless for a while.
Ren Shangshu and the fourth prince, who were close to Lin Qingwan, wiped their tears directly, and Gonggong Liu also lowered his head to wipe his eyes, and then silently stood aside and looked up at Lin Qingwan.
What Lin Qingwan thought in her heart was, I don't worry about other people going, if I can't suppress my temper and talk about it, wouldn't it be a waste of the method she racked her brains to come up with?
For Zhong Ruying, if there are conditions, you must go up, and if you don't have the conditions, you must also go up.
