Chapter 231: The Covenant of the Two Emperors and Honors
Great Chu Palace.
Xiang Chong held a letter and read it again and again.
"Wonderful!"
"It's wonderful!"
"If Fan Li can be eradicated this time, Da Chu will really be my world from now on!"
"Daming really has strong national strength, in addition to the 450,000 army in Yunzhou City, he can even send 300,000 troops to ambush Fan Li."
It's an extremely comical scene.
As the emperor of Chu, Xiang Chong obeyed a letter from the Ming Dynasty.
Even, let Chen Gonggong, the chief manager of Ouchi, rush to the front of the army to pass the message, urging Fan Li to crash into the trap set earlier.
Xiang Chong read and looked at the letter, like a treasure that he couldn't put down.
"The battle of Yunzhou, the crime is in the Three Kingdoms."
"Emperor Chu is benevolent and intelligent, and since he succeeded to the throne, he has been a good neighbor and friendly with my Ming Dynasty, and has never offended ......"
“…… After this battle, the three kingdoms of Wei, Han and Wu were destroyed, and Daci could not survive. ”
"I, His Majesty Emperor Jiajing of the Ming Dynasty, am willing to be brothers with His Majesty Emperor Chu."
"The sun and the moon are the evidence, and the mountains and rivers are the evidence."
"The two emperors of Chu and Ming are respected together, and the eternal alliance is good."
"Foreign Minister Zhang Juzheng, and then bow to His Majesty Emperor Shengming Yingwu Chu."
Like!
Love it so much!
Xiang Chong has not been so touted for a long time, and he can't put down the letter in his hand!
Emperor Jiajing of the Ming Dynasty, the first person in the world, is about a brother with himself?
The state of Chu and the Ming Dynasty, from then on, the east and west are called emperors, and the two emperors are respected?
Of course, Xiang Chong is not a fool, and he will not believe the promises of outsiders.
But who is Zhang Juzheng?
The upstart of the Ming Dynasty, the third-ranked important minister in the cabinet, is only after Yan Song, the first assistant of the Ming Dynasty, and Xu Jie, the second assistant.
The handwritten letter sent by Zhang Juzheng, and the seal of the Ming Celebrant and the approval of the eunuch with the pen, can this still be faked?
"I have reached the highest achievement of the Chu Emperors in all dynasties, except for the Ancestor Overlord?!"
Xiang Chong was ecstatic and trembling with excitement!
"Uh...... Your Majesty? ”
Gonggong Chen, who rushed back from outside in embarrassment, saw Xiang Chong trembling like chaff, thinking that he was sick.
"Your Majesty, where are you unwell, do you need to ask for a doctor?"
"Bastard! I'm good, what kind of doctor do you please? ”
Xiang Chong was slightly angry and glared at Gonggong Chen.
But after all, the old eunuch was his own person, and Xiang Chong's anger came and went down quickly.
He asked expectantly, "Did I pass on my message to Fan Li?" Did he promise to march at full speed and rush to the battlefield in Yunzhou within two days? ”
"Forehead ......"
Chen Gonggong said in his heart that he only had the courage to declare his will, how could he dare to ask Fan Li if he agreed?
But Gonggong Chen also knew that it was impossible for Xiang Chong to check whether his work was completed.
So, let's make it up.
"Your Majesty, Fan Li, the thief did agree, and rushed to Yunzhou City as fast as possible."
Xiang Chong was overjoyed.
"Hahaha!"
"Great!"
"Fan Li marched in a hurry, and he definitely didn't care about exploring the road carefully."
"Zhang Juzheng has already laid out a net of heaven and earth, 300,000 ambush soldiers, and guaranteed that Fan will leave and never return!"
After speaking, Xiang Chong looked up to the sky and laughed again.
Gonggong Chen knelt down and bowed very wisely: "Your Majesty is wise! ”
It's just that the old eunuch also muttered in his heart.
Da Chu was already much weaker than Da Ming, and this time Fan Li was ambushed and died, and the 100,000 garrisons under his command would definitely not be able to keep it.
Losing 100,000 elites in one go?
In the future, Da Chu is really qualified to share the world with Da Ming?
Gonggong Chen almost wanted to speak, but when he saw Xiang Chong beaming, he finally held back and didn't dare to take the initiative to touch Xiang Chong's moldy head.
So, for the next few days, Xiang Chong waited for the news of Fan Li's annihilation.
He even wrote a memorial to Fan Li and the 100,000 garrisons.
On the scene, Xiang Chong is still willing to do it.
However, the 'good news' has not yet arrived.
Because, Fan Li and 100,000 garrisons ...... It's missing.
"Missing?"
"How is that possible!"
Xiang Chong didn't want to believe it, but he didn't dare to disbelieve it.
Just now, he received a second letter from Zhang Juzheng's secret envoy, confirming the incident.
"Zhang Ju was waiting in the ambush place for three days, and he didn't see Fan Li's army."
"He sent secret sentinels to search everywhere, and because the time was too late, he couldn't find any trace of the 100,000-strong army?"
Xiang Chong's face was full of disbelief.
But the letter in his hand, the familiar handwriting of Zhang Juzheng, is genuine.
In the letter, Zhang Juzheng was full of harsh criticism of Xiang Chong.
"The foreign minister led an army of 300,000 with the original intention of ambushing Fan Li."
"Now, Fan Li is hiding in the shadows. If the foreign minister acts without authorization, all 300,000 ambush soldiers will be exposed. ”
"If the minister continues to ambush, he will be restrained by Fan Li's 100,000 soldiers with 300,000 people, let alone rush to the aid of Yunzhou City."
"It's all Your Majesty's fault!"
"In the future, my lord, His Majesty Emperor Jiajing, will have to deal with His Majesty."
Xiang Chong was so frightened that he trembled.
He swallowed his saliva with difficulty and looked at the Empress Dowager Li and Gonggong Chen beside him.
"Queen Mother...... Grandpa Chen, what do you think...... How will Emperor Jiajing deal with me? ”
He ...... He's not going to kill me, is he?! ”
The first person in the world, after all, has been accumulating prestige for a long time.
Xiang Chong only fantasized about the picture of calling Emperor Jiajing a brother and brother for a few days, and it burst like a bubble in an instant.
"Probably not, right?"
Empress Dowager Li has lived in the deep palace for a long time, and she has never seen Emperor Jiajing at all, just guessing wildly.
"Don't be afraid, the emperor really can't do it, you write a letter to apologize to His Majesty Jiajing?"
The old lady on the side listened, and couldn't help but roll her eyes.
What mess?
Write a letter, apologize?
The dispute between the emperor and the society, this can be solved with a letter of apology?
Zhang Juzheng's letter was fierce, but the wording was vague, and it was clearly a sophisticated Spring and Autumn penmanship, in order to advance and retreat in the future.
After the war, if the Ming Dynasty is prosperous, it can crusade against the Chu State, and even kill Xiang Chong and Empress Dowager Li.
If the war is unfavorable and the Ming is weak, Chu and Ming can still secretly communicate and hook up.
"Your Majesty."
The ink in Chen's stomach is also limited.
He held back for a long time before coming up with an idea that wasn't an idea.
"It's better to ask Your Majesty to write a letter and let Lord Zhang's secret envoy bring it back to Daming."
"Your Majesty said that you are willing to do everything you can to search Fan Li's whereabouts and cooperate with Lord Zhang to exterminate him?"
Xiang Chong was stunned and said, "But...... Even Zhang Juzheng couldn't find Fan Li, how could I find it? ”
It seems that Xiang Chong still has a clear understanding of his ability?
Gonggong Chen sighed helplessly and reminded: "Your Majesty, writing a letter is just an attitude, so as not to further anger Da Ming." As for whether Fan Li can be found, it doesn't matter. As you just said, Master Zhang can't find Fan Li, how can you find it? ”
"That's right!"
Xiang Chong suddenly realized and patted Gonggong Chen's shoulder excitedly.
"Grandpa Chen, you are really my ovary!"
The ovary, that is, Zhang Liang, one of the three masters of the early Han Dynasty.
Gonggong Chen hurriedly knelt down, saying that he didn't dare.
But in the old eunuch's heart, there was another kind of complaint.
“…… Your Majesty has somewhat forgotten his ancestors, but he is the descendant of the overlord, but he uses the courtiers of Han Gaozu as a metaphor? ”
"Even if I don't deserve to be Fan Zeng, can't I be Uncle Xiang?"
Zhang Liang should be regarded as the most perfect image of a strategist in history.
Extremely smart, handsome and better than a woman.
The merit is high but not shocking, and he can start and finish well with Liu Bang, and even a mean and suspicious strong woman like Lu Pheasant gets along with him.
If it is possible in the future, I challenge to write an alternate history essay, hoping to write a perfect adviser with a character like Zhang Liang, regardless of the protagonist and supporting roles.
