Zhong Zhenhua chose to send the envoy to Xiangyang to meet this time, he was much more careful, Chu Qing directly defected last time, this time it was his brother-in-law Cai Xiang, he will not rebel again!

After waiting for more than ten days, as soon as Lin Jianyue arrived in Xiangyang, Cai Xiang immediately posted to meet him, he couldn't delay, as long as he negotiated the conditions with Lin Jianyue, he would immediately go west, and the army in Shuzhong to capture Kuizhou Road was in position, and if he didn't go, he couldn't go if he didn't see Jianning's posture.

As long as the Kuizhou Road is captured and the favorable terrain of the Three Gorges of the Yangtze River is used, only then can we advance and retreat freely.

"Congratulations to His Royal Highness King Yan! His Royal Highness has captured the Central Plains, the general trend has been achieved, and my Zhong Shuai admires it very much, and he is the only one who looks forward to it. ”

Lin Jianyue was not in a hurry, but said lightly: "Don't be so loving, Li Chongshan's main force is not damaged, there is still a long way to go, I just hope that Zhong Shuai can go hand in hand with me, and chase the Hu people outside the pass, and then there will be a time to relax and drink and talk." ”

"Deservedly, Zhong Shuai sent me here this time just to support His Highness."

Lin Jianyue smiled and said, "Oh! Then thank you Zhong Shuai for understanding the righteousness, in this way, your Zhong Shuai will definitely leave his name in history, and the people will thank him. ”

Lin Jianyue didn't ask how to support it, Cai Xiang could only take the initiative to say that he would rest assured as soon as possible.

"The Central Plains has been in war for many years, and the people's livelihood is tired, and the Jinghu Road is in the rear, which is the land of fish and rice.

"I'm afraid it's a little inappropriate for us to give the court's territory to each other like this! is also unjustifiable, it will be laughed at by the world, and it will be questioned by the imperial court, is it that I, Lin Jianyue, am going to rebel? That would go against Zhong Shuai's original intentions and good intentions. ”

Cai Xiang secretly said in his heart: "You were already rebelling, as if no one knew it, I knew that you would say that." ”

Cai Xiang said respectfully: "Your Highness has no worries, Zhong Shuai is about to go to Jianning, officially hand over the jurisdiction of Jinghu Road to His Highness, and the communication is good, Wang Xiangqi and other ministers all agree that they should vigorously support His Highness now, presumably even the Holy One will not object." ”

It's a hairy communication, but if it's really written, everyone knows that they will agree, so there's no problem with saying it in advance.

Lin Jianyue finally stood up, walked up to Cai Xiang and said with a smile: "Presumably Zhong Shuai should have a small request that I can do!" ”

"Your Highness is wise. Don't hide it from Your Highness, my Zhong Shuai has received the secret decree of the Holy Lord, and the court has named Zhong Shuai the King of Jing. But my Zhong Shuai said, how can he be compared to His Royal Highness? Naturally, it was a tactful refusal. However, when I heard that Qi Yunhai of Kuizhou Road had accepted the canonization of King Xiang, Zhong Shuai was very angry, wasn't this against His Royal Highness King Yan? Isn't this disrespectful to His Highness? Therefore, he was ready to hand over Jinghu Road to His Highness, and Zhong Shuai personally led the army to ask for the guilt, of course, he also needed His Highness's approval and support. ”

Well, while getting his promise not to fight him, he also sold Qi Yunji by the way and occupied his territory.

If it was just that, Lin Jianyue would have agreed, but Lin Jianyue knew that it would not be so simple, in addition to the dangerous terrain, Kuizhou Road was not as good as Jinghu Road in that aspect, so he gave up the place where he had been rooted for many years? Lin Jianyue didn't believe it.

Lin Jianyue looked at Cai Xiang and stood still.

Cai Xiang was a little panicked in his heart, he wanted to wait for Lin Jianyue to agree before talking about the prince, which would be much more logical, but unfortunately Lin Jianyue did not get his wish.

Time slowly drained away, the atmosphere in the lobby was a little tense, Lin Jianyue did not speak to set the principle, Liu Bingyun, Li Shangxin and others would not talk much at this time.

Cai Xiang's heart was horizontal, and then he continued: "Of course, in this way, Zhong Shuai's loss must be not small, and he also needs to recover to continue to support His Royal Highness King Yan, this naturally does not dare to compare with His Royal Highness King Yan, and the title of King of Shu is almost the same." ”

Lin Jianyue groaned for a while, sighed softly, and said slowly: "Zhong Zhenhua, the one-word king title of the imperial court, doesn't want me, but wants me to confirm his title of King of Chengdu, and I understand the meaning." Go back and tell you Zhong Shuai, once the time is ripe, I will pick it up on Jinghu Road, and I won't bother him to send such a big favor. Also, now is the period of fighting against Hu, and I will not allow any infighting, so you can do it yourself! ”

As long as he agrees to this condition, Zhong Zhenhua will be justified in the future to cut off Kuizhou Road and Shuzhong, how can this Lin Jianyue agree? What's more, if the infighting starts now, the next thing will be smoke everywhere, and it has a lot to do with himself, so Lin Jianyue will not agree.

Lin Jianyue left directly, leaving only Cai Xiang, who was sweating profusely and his face pale.

"Your Highness, since we have clearly refused, I'm afraid we also have to be prepared, just the Wuji Army and the Navy are not enough, it is better to order Wang Lizheng Huxiang Army to immediately go south and enter Jinghu East Road, and monitor Zhong Zhenhua on the spot, just in case." Liu Bingyun is still very reliable.

Lin Jianyue nodded and smiled: "That's fine, you can force Zhong Zhenhua, and he will be famous for beating him in the future!" I reckon that even if I didn't say yes, he would still do it, trying to use the danger against me, but I wanted him to do it. Cai Xiang's words also revealed an important information, why did Zhong Zhenhua want to be the king of Chengdu and not any other king? It seems that Zhong Zhenhua and Huang Yao in Shu must have a deep collusion, and I will make the enemy intelligence department pay attention to this matter. It is also necessary to be prepared militarily, so that Qi Yunhai on Kuizhou Road will undoubtedly be defeated, I am afraid that Qi Yunji will cry, and the feudal town is not so easy to do. ”

Zhong Zhenhua's face was gloomy and he kept turning in circles in the study, Lin Jianyue was really ruthless! I don't want such a big benefit, and I still threaten myself, which is unbearable! In a fit of rage, he overturned the bookcase.

But what about him? The army in Shuzhong is already in place, and now if you don't fight, you have to fight, no matter what, staying on Jinghu Road can only wait for death, and you don't dare to take the initiative to attack Lin Jianyue, only take the initiative to attack Lin Jianyue, and then say, now Lin Jianyue's threat is a threat, and it is unlikely that he will fight himself, the main force is in the north, and other troops are not afraid to come, and there is Jiangnan for the time being, the opportunity is just like this, Zhong Zhenhua made up his mind.

Zhong Zhenhua was also convinced, and in exchange for his position in Lin Jianyue, he agreed without hesitation, that is, he was crowned the king of Chengdu, and he would dominate the world in the future, is it difficult to cancel it? It's really not a gap at all!

It's just that he didn't think about why Lin Jianyue was able to reach the point where he is today, why there are so many people who support him, and he came out to take power much earlier than Lin Jianyue, and his geographical position is much better, but now it depends on Lin Jianyue's eyes?
