Chapter 224: A Delaying Tactic? I'll just count it!

"This envoy has been here for a long time, why didn't he see Runan Taishou Li Ji come to meet him?"

Cao Pi, the king of Wei, sent an envoy to meet Liu Chan, and the first stop was not to go to Xiyang City, but to Xinxi City, the county of Runan County, to prepare to communicate with Li Ji, the Taishou of Runan.

The master of the Taishou Mansion looked embarrassed.

"The lower officials have already sent someone to inform them, and if you want to come to Fuzun, you will come soon."

Coming soon?

"Humph!"

The envoy of King Wei snorted coldly and said, "I still have to go to Xiyang City as an envoy, don't delay the hour, or do you want to rebel?" Don't even accept the king's edict? Don't you want to do this position of his too guard? ”

Right now, right now!

I've said it three times!

Treat me like a monkey?

Even if you play me like a monkey, you can't play the king like a monkey!

Since I am the envoy of the King of Wei, I represent the king, just Li Ji, how dare I be presumptuous?

"The messenger is angry, and I will send someone to urge him."

Hasten?

"Humph!"

The envoy of King Wei waved his hand and said, "No need! ”

He got up and was about to walk towards the inner house.

"I want to see, what the hell is Li Ji doing in there?!"

"The messenger is slow, the messenger is slow."

The master of the Taishou Mansion of Runan County wanted to stop the envoy of King Wei, but the envoy was determined to break into the inner courtyard.

The main book couldn't stop it, so he had to follow the envoy of King Wei with a wry smile.

The closer and closer I got, in the inner courtyard, the sound of silk and bamboo came out.

Walking outside the lobby of the inner courtyard, the anger of the envoy of the King of Wei rose up.

In the main hall of the inner courtyard of the Taishou Mansion in Runan County, Taishou Li Ji and his beauties and music girls are enjoying themselves.

There is a faint fragrance in the lobby, and the light of candles reflects the surrounding walls. The atmosphere in the main church was warm and cheerful.

The beauties wore beautiful satin robes, garlands of flowers, and had bright smiles.

The musicians wore light gauze dance skirts and held slender silk fans, dancing lightly.

Li Ji wandered among the women, his eyes covered by silk, and his face was full of joy.

At this time, he was participating in a blindfolded game of catching and seeking with Mei Ji and the music girls, cheering and laughing from time to time.

The game goes on with great enthusiasm, and Lee Ki reaches out and fumbles, trying to grab one of the hidden Mei Ji.

"Master, you can't catch me~"

"Come on~"

"The slave is here~"

....

The Meiji deftly dodge and joke with him, making the whole scene even more joyful.

Wine glasses fill the table, and the wine is fragrant. Everyone raised their glasses and drank happily.

The singing of the beauty and the dancing of the musicians are intertwined, enveloping the whole main hall in a joyful atmosphere.

Under the lights, Mei Ji dances lightly and sings melodiously, as if she is in a fairyland.

The inner courtyard of the Taishou Mansion has become a sea of happiness, making people forget the troubles of the world.

And seeing the envoy of King Wei who saw such a scene outside the lobby of the inner courtyard, how could he bear it?

"That's what you said about calling Li Ji over?"

The master bookkeeper showed a panicked look on his face, and hurriedly said, "Messenger, I..."

"Needless to say!"

The envoy of the King of Wei was so angry that his face was like a boiled prawn, which was called a red.

"If I am today and in the future, will I not wait for a day in the Waifu Hospitality Hall?"

Hoo hoo hoo hoo huh huh ~

The envoy of the King of Wei's chest rose and fell violently, and said, "Does Li Ji think that his dead Lao Tzu can still protect him?" ”

Runan Taishou Li Ji's father is Li Tong.

This Li Tong is regarded as the general under Cao Cao who guarded Runan, and walked the world with loyalty.

In his early years, he was famous as a ranger in Jiang Ru, who murdered Zhou Zhi and dominated Langling County.

Later, he led the crowd to Cao Cao, replenished the source of soldiers, and worshiped as the captain of Yang'an, during which he did not forget his public because of his selfishness, and did not ask the Fa because of his wife's request.

The battle of Guandu was not only not tempted, but the people south of Xudu were unstable at that time, but Li Tong's Yang'an still existed.

In the fourteenth year of Jian'an, he rescued Cao Ren, and fought and died, but died of illness on the way.

He said Ganghou.

It is precisely because of his father's great merit and the influence of the Li family in Runan County that after Cao Pi succeeded to the throne, he promoted newcomers all over the Wei State, and this Li Ji was one of them.

Unexpectedly, this person is so unbearable!

At the moment of the great enemy, he does not think about the enemy's plan, but is drunk and dreams of death, he is simply a tiger father and a dog!

"Li Ji, do you recognize the Great King Lingxin?"

The envoy of the King of Wei walked quickly into the hall and shouted angrily at the blindfolded Li Ji!

The latter was agitated and hurriedly took off the silk blindfold on his face.

"Your Excellency is..."

"Don't you recognize the edict in my hand?"

Edict of Order?

Li Ji turned his head to look at the master book.

The latter hurriedly stepped forward and whispered in Li Ji's ear: "Fuzun, he is the envoy of the king, I have already sent someone to inform him before, why hasn't Fuzun come out?" ”

Just now, it's true that someone came to pass through, but...

The person who came only said that someone was coming to see me, but he didn't say that the envoy of the King of Wei came in person!

"It's you?!"

Li Ji was ruthless in his heart, and knocked down the main book on his side.

"Did you deliberately harm me?"

This master is from the Runan Zhou family, and he is the most likely candidate to become Runan Taishou.

After he came, he took this person's place, so he was resentful and deliberately stumbled him.

"Fuzun, wronged!"

The face of the master book was full of grievances.

"You, someone!"

Li Ji was just about to order someone to come and take down the main book of the Taishou Mansion of Runan County, but the envoy of the King of Wei on the side of the main book showed impatience on his face.

"Taishou, the play is not played like this, today's matter, I will truthfully show the king, but you don't have a chance to save yourself."

Save oneself?

Li Ji's whole body suddenly woke up.

"The king is ready to form an alliance with the crown prince of Hanzhong, if you can promote this matter, and ensure that Runan County is not lost, and the grain route of the army in front is unblocked, today's matter is nothing."

An alliance with the crown prince of Hanzhong?

Li Ji was stunned.

"Then Duke Liu has sent troops to plunder Runan County several times, how can such a heinous person form an alliance? He has more than 10,000 soldiers under his command, why doesn't the king send troops over, and I will lead the troops to destroy him. ”

"You?"

The envoy of King Wei glanced at Li Ji and said: "This is the king's edict, you just follow it, today's business is over, if there is a next time, hum!" ”

After speaking, the envoy of the King of Wei immediately waved his sleeves away.

"The messenger is slow, the messenger is slow."

Li Ji hurriedly stepped forward to stop him.

"Please also ask the messenger to stay for the night, so that I can fulfill the gift of the Lord's house."

"No need."

The envoy of the king of Wei left without looking back, and in the blink of an eye, he left the house and walked on the carriage and horse of the envoy of the king of Wei.

"Let's go to Xiyang City."

The groom immediately drove the carriage, but under the messenger's car, the deputy envoy said, "Messenger, I haven't told the county guard about important matters!" ”

The important thing?

What is the use of informing this rat?

But he thought about it for a moment and said, "Okay then." ”

The things ordered by the king, it is natural to do it well, anyway, everything is according to the process, and even if it doesn't work out in the end, he, as a messenger, does not have many sins.

Throw the pot to someone else first.

The deputy envoy immediately asked Runan Taishou Li Ji and Master Zhou to summon him into the car.

The envoy of the King of Wei naturally didn't give Li Ji any good looks on his face.

"There are many people with mixed eyes, and all important things have not been said, this time the king sent me to see Liu Gonghei, the crown prince of Hanzhong, although the name is the alliance, however, the alliance is false, and the delay time is true, I only tell the two of you about this matter, don't let others know."

Fake alliance?

Li Ji immediately bowed his hand and said: "Rest assured, envoy, I will not make a noise about this matter." ”

The same is true of the Zhou master book.

"I know that Zhao Zilong has stationed troops in the country, which is indeed a threat to Xinxi, but since we want to make an alliance, Xinxi City naturally has to make a gesture, Runan's defense must be loose on the outside and tight on the inside, do you know?"

Lee Ki nodded immediately.

"I see."

Wai Song is made for Liu Gonghei to see.

The internal tightness is to prevent Liu Gonghei's dog from jumping off the wall in a hurry.

After all, this kid is treacherous, and that is notoriously treacherous.

"That's all, wait for your life, wait for your life, after the king cleans up Zang Ba in Shouchun, he will immediately come over to deal with this Liu Gonghei, the king has an army of more than 100,000 troops, and he will arrive at that time to deal with the Jingzhou soldiers, so is it still not captured?"

Li Ji had done something bad before, and he was extremely obedient at the moment.

At this moment, he saluted the envoy of the King of Wei, and hurriedly said, "No." ”

Master Zhou asked, "I wonder how many days it will take the king to get rid of Zang Ba?" ”

How many days?

The envoy of King Wei shook his head and said: "Zang Ba and Jiangdong, its momentum has been achieved, and it may take some time to deal with him, but the king already has a perfect strategy, so Zang Ba will not be able to jump for a few days." ”

Master Zhou's eyes flashed, and he also promised.

"That subordinate also obeys the king's edict!"

After instructing the specific matters, the convoy of envoys of the King of Wei convoy of hundreds of people immediately headed towards Xiyang City.

After the envoy team left, Li Ji looked at Master Zhou's book, hating it so much that it was itchy teeth.

"Zhou Ren, you!"

Seeing that the county guard Li Ji was going to attack himself, the chief bookkeeper Zhou Ren didn't pretend anymore.

"Now Fuzun is a mud bodhisattva crossing the river, and it is difficult to protect himself, so it is better to survive this catastrophe and deal with me again, otherwise, in the future, the position of this county guard will not necessarily be Fuzun's."

Such naked words made Li Ji tremble, but it was not easy to attack Zhou Ren.

The Runan Zhou clan is deeply rooted in Runan, and although his Li family has prestige, it is still inferior to his.

Besides, today is to vent the fear in his heart, is the reason for the banquet, but I don't want to be bumped into by the envoy of the King of Wei, he now wants to sit firmly in the position of Runan Taishou, it is not easy, it is indeed a mud bodhisattva crossing the river.

Hiss~

Li Ji took a deep breath and said: "Today's matter, this is the end, Master Zhou, please also ask you and I to unite sincerely, and stand this last shift before the king comes. ”

Zhou Renpi, the chief bookkeeper, smiled and whispered to Li Ji: "The palace commands, and the subordinates dare not disobey." ”

After speaking, he didn't wait for Li Ji to speak, and left directly.

"This week!"

Li Ji was trembling with anger, but he was helpless.

Maybe...

Zhou Ren should be allowed to garrison at the ferry and lead Zhao Zilong to attack him.

Otherwise, he, who is too guarded by Runan, feels that he will not be able to sit steadily.

...

Xiyang City.

Liu Chan received the envoy of Cao Pi, the king of Wei, in the main hall.

Being able to see Cao Pi's envoy caught Liu Chan off guard.

This Cao Zihuan, what kind of medicine is he selling in his heart?

"The foreign envoy pays a visit to His Highness."

The etiquette of the envoys of the King of Wei was impeccable.

"Please."

For the sake of the several carts of gold, silver and jewelry brought by the envoy, Liu Chan's attitude was still relatively mild.

"Cao Pi called you over to visit, what's the matter?"

Hearing Liu Chan call Cao Pi by his name, the envoy of the King of Wei's face sank, but when he thought of the mission given to him by Cao Pi, he hurriedly hid the trace of dissatisfaction in his heart.

He smiled lightly and said, "My king sent an envoy here to discuss the alliance with His Highness. ”

Alliance?

"Hahaha~"

Liu Chan laughed out loud and said, "Your lord wants you to come to the alliance? Did I hear it wrong? ”

Liu Chan ate the grapes handed by Zhen Mi, looking very frivolous.

It's like a gentleman who doesn't do his job.

But the envoy of King Wei did not dare to despise the young man in front of him at all.

Who knows if he's pretending to be or not?

Looking down on the teenager in front of him, the final fate must be miserable and miserable.

Moreover...

The envoy of the King of Wei cautiously glanced up at Zhen Mi, who was waiting for Liu Chan on the side, and quickly lowered his head again.

He was originally an old man in Cao Pi's mansion, so he had naturally seen Zhen Mi before.

Now that I see the original master and mother serving the enemy thief, I have mixed feelings in my heart.

This grape is also the king's favorite thing, this Hanzhong King Liu Gong's heir is so hateful, let the master mother serve in front of him, this is to deliberately anger him.

No way!

I can't fulfill the wish of this heir of Liu.

The envoy of the King of Wei tried to calm his mood as much as possible.

"My lord's intention to form an alliance with His Highness is really sincere, and there is no falsehood at all, let alone the intention of coaxing His Highness."

A tree lives a layer of skin, and a person lives a face.

When you are shameless, you are invincible in the world.

"My king knows that His Royal Highness is a loyal minister of the Han Dynasty, and so is my lord, since he is also a loyal minister of the Han Dynasty, now, we should help each other, my lord wants to pacify Zang Ba and Jiangdong Sun Quan, and at that time, I will share the world with His Royal Highness and enjoy wealth and wealth!"

When you say this, who will believe it?

Liu Chan sneered and said, "You don't have to tell me these false things, Cao Pi is in alliance with me, what price are you willing to pay?" ”

Without waiting for the envoy of the King of Wei to speak, Liu Chan added a sentence at the back and said: "Then Zang Ba promised me the two counties of Runan and Lujiang, and Cao Pi is willing to promise these two places with me?" ”

Runan Lujiang two counties?

That Zang Ba is really generous!

The smile on the face of the envoy of the King of Wei was a little stiff, but he still stubbornly said: "My lord is willing to send Yangzhou and Jiaozhou to His Royal Highness, compared to the two counties of Runan and Lujiang, isn't it more generous?" ”

Liu Chan was going to make this envoy of the King of Wei laugh.

"Then Yangzhou and Jiaozhou are now owned by Sun Zhongmou, and his Sun family has been operating for decades, is it a borderless land? Or are you the land of Wei? Do you dare to come? ”

"His Royal Highness is the hero of the world, just Jiangdong rats, how is it His Highness's opponent, when my king restrains the main force of Jiangdong, His Royal Highness sends troops to attack Jiangdong, then Jiangdong will go into His Highness's pocket, so divide the world, isn't it beautiful?"

I'm beautiful, you're big!

Liu Chan snorted coldly, and immediately waved his hand to prepare to send off the guests.

"If Cao Pi's alliance intentions, sincerity is the only way, then the envoy, please go back, I still take my Runan and Lujiang two counties well, at least, this is meat that can be seen and touched, and can be eaten."

This Hanzhong crown prince Liu Gonghei is really not easy to fool.

The envoy of the King of Wei had no choice but to say: "Runan County and Lujiang County have more than 100,000 of my king's army, and His Royal Highness wants to capture them, I'm afraid it will be difficult?" ”

Liu Chan disagreed.

"Although there are more than 100,000 people in the Wei State, there are Zang Ba making chaos inside, Jiangdong and Jingzhou outside, and they are surrounded by enemies on three sides, how dare they win? At that time, the defeat will be like a mountain, don't say that it is Runan County, it is Yuzhou, and I want to take it all! ”

What a big breath!

The envoy of King Wei snorted coldly, and his attitude was much tougher.

"Zang Ba and Jiangdong Sun Quan are just clowns jumping off the beam, not worth mentioning, my lord can destroy them with a wave of his hand."

Liu Chan sneered and said sarcastically: "If that's the case, why did Cao Pi send you to ally with me? ”

Call~

The envoy of the King of Wei found that he really couldn't say the young man in front of him, so he had to say: "My lord is willing to cut off Lujiang County, Yangzhou, Jiaozhou and His Royal Highness, when His Royal Highness destroys Jiangdong, he will not send troops to attack and disturb, and he will also allow His Highness to trade in Wei, the conditions are these, and please give His Highness more consideration, this is what His Highness can eat, more, I am afraid that His Highness will be supported to death." ”

Lujiang County?

"If you don't cut Runan, you will never form an alliance."

Cut Runan?

"It can't be!"

The envoy of the King of Wei categorically refused.

"Then the messenger, please return."

Liu Chan got up slowly, patted the dust on his sleeve, and his face was already impatient.

"Your Highness, slow down."

The envoy of the King of Wei had a look of struggle on his face.

"Please also ask Your Highness to give me a few days, and I will send a messenger and hurry up to inform my king."

Hehe.

Liu Chan sneered and said, "Your Excellency doesn't think of me as a fool?" Think I don't see this as a delaying tactic? ”

The envoy of the King of Wei hurriedly shook his head and said, "My lord is full of sincerity, and it is definitely not a plan to delay the army!" ”

"Since this is the case, let me see the sincerity, the division of Runan County needs to be discussed, then the land of the five cities, can you be the master?"

Five cities?

This heir of Liu Gong, the crown prince of Hanzhong, is really difficult to deal with!

"This matter, I..."

"If it doesn't work, it's a delaying tactic!"

The envoy of the King of Wei was forced by Liu Chan's words to make the three corpse gods jump wildly.

He pondered for a long time and said, "You can cut five cities, but you still need to discuss which five cities to cut." ”

In the eyes of the envoy of the King of Wei, cut the five cities?

Consult for a few days.

Then it took a few more days to hand over the city.

Anyway, one word: drag!

Just drag it hard!

Drag out the time, and his task will be completed, as for the land of the five cities?

When you, Gonghei Liu, dream, can do more.

With my envoy from the King of Wei here, the land of Great Wei, it is indispensable at all!

"It's okay to discuss, but, in order to see your sincerity, I also ask your Excellency to bring some grain and grass over."

Grain and grass baggage?

The face of the envoy of the King of Wei changed drastically.

You kid, this appetite is really big!

"Your Highness, in the battle ahead, my Wei army has no extra grain and grass!"

Liu Chan's face sank, and he said: "That is your insincerity, my Jingzhou is short of grain and grass, and it is difficult to support an army of 10,000 people. ”

"This..."

The envoy of the King of Wei looked embarrassed.

"Within five days, if I don't send 300 carts of grain and grass, I will immediately send troops to attack Xinxi, and the alliance will also be stopped, so you can do it yourself!"

It's really overbearing!

The envoy of the King of Wei was resentful in his heart, but he did not dare to attack.

If you use 300 carts of grain and grass, you can exchange precious time for the king.

Maybe...

Nor a loss?

He pondered for a moment, gritted his teeth, and said, "Three hundred carts of grain and grass, in five days, will be sent to His Highness!" ”

Hearing the promise of the envoy of King Wei, Liu Chan immediately showed a smile on his face.

"In this case, I know the sincerity of King Wei!"

...

ps:

Five thousand word chapters today.

Everyone, give me some strength, let me add more!
