Chapter 191: Envoy of the State of Chu
The next morning.
Bai Zhong went to the court again, and not long after coming to Zhangtai Palace, Yingzheng came and directly announced the envoys of the Chu State.
"Convey the envoys of the Chu State."
Zhao Gao shouted.
After a while, a man who was less than thirty years old strode into the main hall and said, "Jing Yu, meet the king!" ”
"Are you from the Jing clan of Chu Guo?"
Ying Zheng asked lightly.
The four major families of Chu are Qu, Jing, Zhao, and Xiang.
Jing Yu came from Jing's family, nodded and said: "Exactly, this is the letter of state that our king asked me to send, the king asks for peace, sincerely dedicates the west of Qingyang and other places, and asks the king to agree." ”
He held up a wooden stump in both hands.
Zhao Gao hurriedly took it and sent it to Ying Zheng.
After opening the wooden slip and looking at it briefly for a while, Ying Zheng asked: "The widow agreed to the matter of suing for peace, but do you really want the widow to send an envoy to Shouchun to take a trip?" ”
Jing Yu said respectfully: "This is what our king meant, Qin and Chu have been married for generations, and now our king has asked me to come to Qin, giving the sincerity of the Chu State, out of the future peace, and the consideration of taking over Qingyang, I also ask the king to send envoys to Shouchun, and then he can directly take over Qingyang." ”
He said so, no problem.
The consideration of the king of Chu seems reasonable.
"The king, the minister is willing to send an envoy to the state of Chu."
Yao Jia said first.
As a diplomat of Great Qin, he often traveled to other countries, and he could personally take charge of this matter.
Ying Zheng said: "Shangqing is old, Chu is located in the south, the climate is different from Guanzhong, and the widow is worried that Shangqing will not be able to adapt to the water and soil. ”
When he said this, he seemed to agree, and said, "Bai Qing! ”
"The minister is here."
Bai Zhong was thinking, should I be sent to the Chu State?
What he was thinking was exactly what Yingzheng was going to do, and said, "You go to Chu for the widow, okay?" ”
"Command!"
The trip to Chu State, Bai Zhong had a hunch that it would not be too smooth, otherwise in history, after the destruction of Wei, Li Xin would not be allowed to destroy Chu immediately.
Don't let Yao Jia be an envoy, it should be that Yingzheng also has a similar feeling, worried that Yao Jia will not be able to deal with it, so let Bai Zhong go on this trip to see what the Chu State wants to do, if the Chu State is in chaos, then Daqin will enter the Chu realm again, which is completely justified and justified.
Ying Zheng has enough trust in Bai Zhong.
He also knew that Bai Zhong's strength was super strong, and even if there was really danger, it would not be a problem to leave.
When the others heard that Ying Zheng asked Bai Zhong to send an envoy, they all wondered if there was any special meaning behind it.
Only Yao Jia can think of what Ying Zheng and Bai Zhong are currently thinking of.
"Good!"
Ying Zheng nodded and said, "The envoys of the Chu State can go down first." ”
Jing Yu bowed, and then walked out of the main hall.
"Bai Qing, you will go back with Jing Yu in two days."
Ying Zheng pondered for a while and then said: "Starting tomorrow, the Iron Eagle Warriors will still be selected from the Lantian camp, and this matter will be assisted by the general and Meng Qing." ”
"Yui!"
Bai Zhong and the three of them responded.
Ying Zheng said again: "Okay, continue the discussion." ”
After dealing with the government, Yingzheng left Bai Zhong behind.
"Bai Qing should know the mind of a widow, right?"
Ying Zheng said first.
Bai Zhong guessed: "The king wants to find a good reason to destroy Chu, right?" When attacking Huaiyang, our reason was to destroy Wei and ensure the safety of the flanks and rear, although the reason was very far-fetched, and even forcibly explained, but it has passed, and now we will rashly launch a war to destroy the country, and the king will also have some concerns? ”
Ying Zheng laughed and said, "Those who know me, Bai Qing also!" ”
"Our Great Qin and the Three Jin Dynasty have always been unfriendly, which can be traced back to the Jin Kingdom back then, when the Qin and Jin Dynasty were at odds, this was the reason for destroying the Three Jins."
"The reason why Yan Guo can only retreat to Liaodong is because Yan Dan's people want to kill the widow."
"Now that you are ready to destroy Chu, you have to have a reason."
He considered it a lot, and continued: "This reason must be that the other party did something wrong, causing the widow to send troops to attack, and the country will be destroyed in the future, and the civilians of Chu may be anti-Qin, and the Chu people will be more resentful of Qin, which is not conducive to the rule of the widows, so use this reason to put the fault on Xiong Chengshu, downplay the cruelty and injustice of the widows to destroy the country, and it can be regarded as a way to appease the Chu people's hatred of the Qin State as much as possible. ”
Bai Zhong felt that this had a certain effect, and it was not convenient to discuss how big the specific effect was, and said, "The king still thinks about it thoroughly." ”
"You are an envoy to the State of Chu, and the widow thinks that it will not go very well, and it is even dangerous."
Ying Zheng continued: "The other nobles of the Chu State hate Qin Jiuyi, there must be people who oppose the peace, especially the people of the Qu family, is Bai Qing afraid? If you don't want to go, you can change people. ”
Bai Zhong shook his head and said: "The minister is not afraid of danger, if there is really danger, the minister wants to kill Shouchun, it is not difficult to leave the Chu State, if the Chu State dares to do something to the minister, it can just create a reason to send troops, for the unification of Great Qin, the minister is willing to face the danger." ”
"Good!"
Ying Zheng said loudly: "The widow will arrange the people of the Black Ice Terrace to go to the territory of Chu in advance to provide convenience for Bai Qing, and will also give you five hundred elite accompaniments, and the widow will wait for Bai Qing to triumph!" ”
Bai Zhongzuo said: "The king can also assemble the army in advance, if there is news, the minister will send it back as soon as possible, and send troops to attack until Shouchun at any time." ”
The matter, they confirmed.
During the whole incident, Bai Zhong understood what role he played, that is, to be a bait to lure the Chu State to take the bait and create a reason for the Qin State to send troops.
There was definitely danger, but Bai Zhong didn't care.
As he said, it's perfectly fine to get out.
——
The next day.
Outside the Lantian camp.
The replenishment of the Iron Eagle Sharps is simply drawn and officially started.
This time, it was Geng Wu who planned it, Bai Zhong didn't get involved, no matter how they tossed, as long as nothing happened, it was enough, and it was impossible for something to happen.
Outside the camp, Bai Zhong saw that Wang Jian and Meng Wu were there.
"I've seen two generals."
Bai Zhong stepped forward and smiled, "I didn't expect you to come earlier than me. ”
Meng Wu said with a smile: "General Bai is a little late, and Jian Ba will start." ”
Wang Jian echoed: "You can start now, right?" ”
"Listen to the general!"
Bai Zhong arched his hand.
Then, Wang Jian announced that Jian Ba had begun.
The army of the Lantian battalion set off to the west in a mighty way.
The second Jian Pull, which was also carried out very simply, because Bai Zhong's first time could be copied, and Geng Wu and they didn't have much pressure.
Wang Jian said: "General Bai, it shouldn't be that simple to send an envoy to the Chu State, right?" ”
After they returned, they also figured out some of the king's thoughts.
Bai Zhong nodded and said: "It's not that simple, how to be specific, the king didn't say if he could tell you, and I don't dare to talk nonsense, please understand!" ”
They can all understand that these are military secrets.
Meng Wu said: "There must be danger, I am worried that General Bai will be difficult to deal with alone, and I will ask the king to let Meng Tian go with you and take care of each other." ”
Not only can he help Bai Zhong, but he can also let Meng Tian follow him and make a little credit.
"Wang Li can also be."
Wang Jian could immediately guess Meng Wu's thoughts.
