Chapter 165: A Grand Meeting of the Nations
The second day of the first month of April.
In early spring, Lin'an Mansion is pink and willow green, and the warm breeze is pleasant.
On the Hall of Heroes.
The envoy who had a Han face but claimed to be a Qi person came again, but this time he was no longer arrogant and domineering, and his attitude became much calmer.
He was not the only foreign envoy here.
Western Xia, Southern Section, Tubo, Western Liao...... Even the envoys of Baekje and Fuso gathered quite rarely!
This kind of scene is common in the previous dynasty.
In that year, Taizu established the Zhao State, and after decades of southern and northern wars, he laid a large territory.
Military, economic, cultural...... Rapid rise.
At that time, this kind of scene of "all nations coming to court" was very common and not new at all.
It's a pity that in just over a hundred years, Taizu's descendants played a good hand of cards to the ground, not only the territory was encroached upon by the surrounding small countries one after another, but even the country was finally wiped out.
The shame of Xiangyang, which shocked the world decades ago, is still fresh in my memory.
If it weren't for the official family turning the tide and rebuilding the Zhao State on the ruins, the Han people living in this land today would inevitably be reduced to slavery like those Han people living in Qidi.
In recent years, Zhao has vigorously developed its economy and indeed achieved remarkable results.
Once again the richest country in the world.
But it will be difficult to regain its former glory.
The official sat on the dragon chair, looking at the group of envoys from various countries below, his spirit was somewhat trance-like, and his heart was full of emotion.
Of course, he knew that the vision was not the real dynasty of nations.
"If there are no demons in troubled times......"
He sighed in his heart.
At this time, the envoy of Western Liao stood up and said: "The foreign minister thinks that this matter is a great thing, and in this way, he can show the civil and martial arts of the talents of various countries. ”
The official looked at him and said, "King Yong is still quelling the rebellion in Yazhou...... I'm afraid I may not have time to participate. ”
The envoy of Western Liao smiled and said: "The foreign minister heard that the rebellion in Yazhou had been quelled by King Yong and the privy envoy Lord Li, and the official family must have known about it earlier, so what else could King Yong do?" ”
The official said: "It's just a preliminary calmdown, and there are still many follow-up things that have not been completed." ”
The envoy of Western Xia smiled and said: "The foreign minister also heard that His Royal Highness the King of Courage was brilliant, and said those words, as well as the famous poem, after it was passed on to my Western Xia, it was praised by scholars, this kind of character, everyone wants to see it!" ”
Subsequently, the envoys of Nandan, Tubo, Baekje, and Fusang spoke one after another, praising Song Yu to the fullest.
Separated by thousands of rivers and mountains, the envoy of Fusang, who didn't take Qi very seriously, was even more speechless.
said to the official family: "We Fusang warriors worship the strong the most, and His Royal Highness King Yong relies on his own strength to purge the powerful Yin God in the country; Abroad, with a few hundred people, you can sweep through the country......"
The envoy of the Qi State turned pale, and glared angrily at the envoy from Fusang.
Small countries and widows, can they speak?
The envoy of Fusang didn't care about these at all, and said to himself: "Therefore, the foreign minister agrees with this civil and military event proposed by the envoy of the Liao State, which can not only allow the top talents of various countries to learn from each other, but also enhance the friendship between our countries." ”
The Baekje envoy also said: "We in Baekje also agree with this grand event, and we call back and forth every day, which hurts the peace of the heavens!" ”
The Fusang envoy glanced at the envoy of Baekje, and a trace of disdain flashed in his eyes, the big Baekje, the land of the projectile, we are all three times bigger than you!
The official family was a little hesitant.
This sudden "coming of all nations" made him a little surprised, and at the same time a little vigilant.
I always feel that the neighbors of these tigers, leopards and jackals around me are not holding back their farts in their stomachs.
He glanced at Chu Qinghui, who had always been sitting quietly, and asked, "What advice does Chu have for this?" ”
A group of envoys also set their eyes on this powerful Shoufu Lord in the Zhao State.
Chu Qinghui stood up, bowed his hand to the official, cleared his throat, and said, "Minister, oppose!" ”
The official family was slightly stunned, a little unexpected, according to what Song Yu has done in the past few months, Chu Qinghui must hate him to the core, and he should try his best to find an opportunity to kill Song Yu.
Why is it opposed?
Chu Qinghui said seriously: "In front of the envoys of your friends, the minister wants to ask the official family for guilt, and the minister ...... Remiss! ”
These foreign envoys looked at Chu Qinghui suspiciously.
Chu Qinghui said: "The minister has patronized the development of people's livelihood and economy over the years, and neglected to pay attention to those yin gods, or ...... Minister, I didn't find out about this! ”
He sighed: "So much so that these ghostly things have become the climate, and even a rebellion has occurred in the western frontier, if it weren't for the privy envoy and His Royal Highness King Yong to turn the tide, my Zhao Kingdom will definitely suffer heavy losses." ”
"These are the ministers' dereliction of duty and failure to do a good job as prime minister."
"Although the overall situation has been decided, there are still many things that have not been completed, and the minister believes that His Royal Highness King Yong should continue to take on the great responsibility at this time, and ...... in addition."
He hesitated slightly, glanced at the envoy of the Qi State, and said: "King Yong has a deep dislike with the Qi State, and the minister is worried that after he goes out, he will be retaliated against by the Qi State!" ”
"Slander! Chu Xianggong, you are slandering! Although the envoy of Qi became very low-key this time, when he heard this, he couldn't help but jump on the spot.
looked at Chu Qinghui angrily and said: "This 'Universal Event' was initiated by Liao, and the venue is also in Liao, and our Qi country, like other countries, are all participants!" ”
Chu Qinghui drooped his eyelids and said lightly: "You have the support of the big demon behind the royal family of Qi Kingdom, who knows if it will appear at this grand event of all nations, His Royal Highness King Yong is the treasure of my Zhao Kingdom, and he doesn't want him to take any risk." ”
Envoy of Qi State: "...... "Damn, it seems that there is no big demon behind you, is it interesting for you to say this in public?"
The official family is also full of black lines.
In the past, there was a tacit understanding between the two of them, and they both understood what was in each other's hearts.
Now with Song Yu's sudden rise from nowhere, he can't understand this prime minister.
Seeing his clear refusal, the envoy of the Liao State was also a little anxious, and said: "Prime Minister Chu's words, please forgive the foreign ministers for not agreeing, since it is a grand event hosted by our Liao State, it is natural to be responsible for the safety of the VIPs from all walks of life who come to participate in the grand event." ”
He looked at Chu Qinghui: "Not to mention that our Liao State has not ceased war with Qi State now, they can all participate, you Zhao State Tai Min'an, why can't you participate?" ”
Chu Qinghui said: "The prime minister didn't say that Zhao Guo didn't participate, only said that King Yong was inconvenient to participate, what are you anxious about?" Could it be that there is some attempt against our Royal Highness King Yong? ”
The envoy of the Liao State was immediately stunned, and then said with some anger: "What does Chu Xiang mean by this? ”
Chu Qinghui's face was calm: "There is nothing interesting in this appearance. ”
"Okay, okay, about whether the Yong King will participate in this grand meeting of all nations, let the widow think about it." The official family intervened in time to put an end to the controversy.
……
……
Let the envoys of various countries go to the post house to rest, and the official family returns to the imperial study and speaks to the large vase.
"What does Chu Xiang mean by this? Do you want to do the opposite? Guess my mind before you deliberately said that? ”
A faint voice came from the large vase: "Not necessarily." ”
"Oh?" The official raised his eyebrows.
"In my opinion, he may really not want Song Yu to leave." The voice in the big vase said, "According to the news transmitted from there, Song Yu should have cultivated the demon law. ”
The official family was silent for a moment, and said quietly: "This is also beyond my expectations!" ”
"But he should have deceived the two monsters in Chu Xiang's camp at that time, and after bluffing them, he successfully retreated." The voice in the big vase said: "Chu Xiang must have known about this matter a long time ago, but he didn't make any moves, there were only two possibilities. ”
The official asked, "Which two?" ”
"The first possibility is that he is a little jealous of the demon behind Song Yu!"
"The second possibility is that he wants to change his strategy and want to unite with him, instead of targeting him as before."
The official frowned slightly: "Song Yu uprooted his layout for many years and stirred it up, will he reconcile with Song Yu?" ”
A chuckle came from the big vase: "The State of Qi also destroyed the State of Zhao, didn't the official family also sign a friendly covenant with it?" ”
The official muttered: "The widow is a last resort......"
Speaking of this, he reacted, squinted his eyes and said, "What you said is not unreasonable. ”
The voice in the big vase said: "So my suggestion is to let Song Yu go to Liao Kingdom to participate in this grand event of all nations." ”
The official said: "Do you want to use this opportunity to determine how much he is hiding?" ”
"That's right, the Liao State suddenly proposed to hold this grand event, and successfully persuaded other countries, even including the Qi State that started a war with it, there must be a deep-seated reason behind it, I think, it is related to the demon troubled times."
"The widow thinks the same thing, but he can't see through it."
"If you think about it this way, countless demon and human cultivators were sealed into nine seals, and after a long period of time, most of them died in the seals and turned into a pile of white bones."
"The rest of them, a small number of them came out, scattered all over the place, choosing people from different countries and different camps to support, trying to compete for luck."
"Judging from the current national strength of the Liao State, it is likely that they also have the former top demon behind them. Holding this grand event is more like a 'announcement', a gathering to 'join the chess game' and redraw the sphere of influence. ”
The official family was silent for a moment, and his eyes flickered slightly: "By the way, find out?" ”
The voice in the big vase said: "That's right, so we not only have to participate, but also have to send real powerhouses, and we can't fall behind." At present, there is no one more suitable than Song Yu. ”
……
……
Prime Minister's House.
Chu Qinghui said to the young man: "Nine times out of ten, the official family will choose to agree, so you can also prepare to leave." ”
The young man nodded: "If Song Yu is really a bloody demon behind him, I will successfully convince him!" ”
Chu Qinghui was silent for a moment and said, "What if not?" ”
The young man smiled: "Then let him be our knife and kill all sides!" ”
