The news that Song Qingwan was pregnant was just a trivial matter at the Mid-Autumn Festival banquet after all, and it was soon overwhelmed by the negotiations.

Chen Chao sat in the banquet and listened carefully to the minister's discussion of the negotiation matter.

Until someone mentioned what he thought about the matter.

Chen Chaocai spoke.

Chen Chao frowned and said: "Since the other party does not agree to the conditions we offered, then let's find a way to get them to agree, the sixth prince Chu Yan is in hand, are you afraid that the other party will not agree?" What a joke......"

Chen Chao snorted coldly, and said: "Chu Yan's mother is Emperor Chu's favorite concubine, and she sent someone to blow the wind in her ear, saying that her son Chu Yan was about to be killed in our place, and asked that concubine to blow the wind in Emperor Chu's ear, so I don't believe that Emperor Chu will not agree." ”

"No matter how bad it is, in front of the envoys of the Chu State, drag Chu Yan up, and if the envoys of the Chu State disagree, they will chop off one of their six princes' fingers, and if they don't agree, they will chop another one until they agree to the conditions we offer."

Look, look, with Chen Chao's ruthless and vicious temperament, it is really possible to do this kind of thing..... Emperor Yongxing thought in his heart.

So negotiate this matter with the envoys of the State of Chu.

Chen Chao could not participate in it.

Otherwise, the two countries will go to war, only overnight.

Chen Chao's suggestion, the hundred officials just listened.

After listening to it, the expressions on his faces were different, some frequently nodded in agreement, and more twisted their eyebrows in opposition.

After Chen Chao finished speaking, he picked up the wine glass and took a sip of wine.

There is a depression in the chest, and it will not dissipate for a long time.

Even if the soldiers of Daji won the battle in Yunzhou, the hundred officials still showed a weak attitude towards the Chu State, which is the reason for the decline of Daji.

I don't know, I thought that the battle of Yunzhou was won by the Chu State.

In Daji, from the emperor of the Ninety-Five Emperor, down to the hundred officials and hundreds of people, they were afraid of completely tearing their faces with the Chu State and causing a national war.

"What Father said is reasonable and well-founded, but if our side really does this, I am afraid that it will destroy the friendship between the two countries for many years." Emperor Yongxing smiled slightly.

As soon as this sentence came out, it was regarded as a complete rejection of Chen Chao's proposal for negotiations.

Chen Chao's method will not work!

Chen Chao didn't show any expression on his face, but he was sneering in his heart..... Friendship? Where is the true friendship between countries? Both sides only have their own interests in their eyes, and when the interests are unbalanced and unequal, friendship is like a lonely boat on the sea, which may capsize at any time.

The banquet was quiet for a long time, until an unknown official with an unknown surname below muttered in a low voice: "The post-war negotiation is nothing more than a land reparation, since the indemnity is not successful, then we simply don't want it, how about asking for a piece of land from the Chu State?" ”

As soon as these words came out, the ministers' eyes lit up.

Money will always run out, but no matter how many years have passed, the land will always be there and will still appreciate in value.

This deal is a good deal.

But then again, if the other party even gives money and search, how can he give a piece of land?

Moreover, Daji and Chu are divided into rivers and ruled, and the land given by Chu is naturally in the south of the Great River, the border land of Chu, Daji can't see it, the emperor is far away, and people want to send troops to capture it, it's easy.

Even if the State of Chu dares to cede the land to Daji, with Daji's current temperament of being afraid of wolves and tigers, he doesn't have the courage to ask for it.

Therefore, the method of land cutting does not work.

However, the matter of cutting the land reminded Chen Chao, Chen Chao squinted and thought about it, and said calmly:

"Since the Chu State side is unwilling to agree to the existing conditions, then we might as well change the angle and let the other party accept it willingly."

The ministers glanced at each other, and someone asked, "How to make the Chu State accept it willingly?" ”

Chen Chao took a sip of wine, smacked his lips, and said:

"The post-war negotiation is nothing more than the reparation for the cession of land, and the pro-tribute, the reparation for the cession of land will not work, let alone the tribute, and the Chu side will definitely not agree, so there is only one way left..... And pro! ”

"Ask the other party to marry a few princesses, and the princess will marry, with the temperament of Emperor Chu, it's not good not to give a dowry, right? Isn't this money coming....."

Hey!

The ministers' eyes lit up.

Don't say it, this method is really amazing!

The officials below immediately exploded and discussed it enthusiastically.

Someone said: "As we all know, there are a lot of heirs of the Chu Emperor, there are more than 20 princes alone, and the princesses are even more countless, and the marriage of the princess every year is the number one big problem for the Chu Emperor. ”

"Those royal daughters came to our Daji with dowry, since they have arrived at our Daji's territory, it's not what we say? …… This is a very good method. ”

The ministers all nodded.

And if you are friendly, it will also save enough face for the Chu side.

When outsiders talk about it, they will only say that the royal in-laws of the two countries are a match made in heaven.

"Hmm." Emperor Yongxing nodded, he was also very satisfied with this method, and said, "Just do it according to this method.....

......

When the banquet was about to end, Chen Chao used the excuse that he drank too much wine tonight, his stomach was unhappy, and he took the time to pee, during which Qin Xiangru said to go together, but Chen Chao ruthlessly refused.

After peeing, as soon as he came out, Chen Chao saw the commander of the forbidden army summoned outside the latrine.

The two tacitly acquiesced, glanced at each other, and without saying much, Chen Chao followed behind Meng Zhao and soon came to a remote palace nearby.

It is uninhabited all year round and seems a little deserted.

Summoned to guard the sword outside the hall in person, Chen Chao pushed the door in by himself.

Seeing Chen Chao coming in, the Empress Dowager Murong Yue, who had been waiting in the inner hall for a long time, stepped up to greet her, grabbed Chen Chao's arm and asked eagerly: "Say it quickly, Qingwan, is Qingwan really pregnant?" How many months? Is the baby okay? ”

Looking at the Queen Mother's nervous and eager tone, she obviously cared about Song Qingwan very much.

"I'll be jealous of you like this......" Chen Chao took the Queen Mother into his arms and reached out to nod her Qiong's nose.

The Queen Mother blinked her beautiful eyes and looked at him with disgust: "What's so jealous about this?" You're in your thirties, you're not serious, what kind of jealousy do you eat? ”

"That child is not your seed yet, I care about Qingwan, what kind of jealousy do you eat? You should be glad that I have a good relationship with Qingwan, otherwise you will feel better in the future. ”

After a lot of rambling, Chen Chao had a black line.

"Come on, is Qingwan really pregnant?"

Chen Chao nodded and said, "I only found out today, I called the doctor to come over and take a look, and said that it was Ximai." ”

"How many months?"

"More than a month."

Hearing this, the Queen Mother finally put her mind at ease, and a smile appeared on the corner of her mouth. She is happy for her good sister, Qingwan finally has a child of her own.

"Qingwan is pregnant, I can't stay in the palace to accompany you tonight, I'm sorry."

"It should be, it should be ......"

The Queen Mother is not an unreasonable person, pushing Chen Chao to ask him to let him go, and hurry back to accompany Song Qingwan, "Then you go back quickly, say hello to Qingwan on my behalf." ”

A pregnant woman is emotionally unstable and extremely sensitive.

At all times, you need someone to be by your side.

That's how she came over herself.

The Queen Mother pushed, but Chen Chao hugged her tighter and tighter, looking at the woman in her arms with a blank look.

Chen Chao didn't say anything, but with a look at him, the Queen Mother knew what the man in front of him wanted.

So the Queen Mother stood on tiptoe, raised the corners of her lips, and boldly tapped Chen Chao's cheek, "Okay, go back quickly......

"Kiss me again, and I'll go back." Chen Chao nodded, and turned his cheek to the other side.

The Queen Mother angrily turned white and sold cheaply, stood on tiptoe and tapped again.

Chen Chao breathed a sigh of relief with satisfaction.

Leave one step at a time.

But just after taking two steps, Chen Chao suddenly turned back, and the Queen Mother didn't know what he was going to do.

The next moment, she felt that her body was light, and she was strangled by Chen Chao's arm and gently lifted up.

"You're ......! Hmm...... Hmm...... "Intermittently, the Queen Mother's plump ruddy lips were brutally blocked by Chen Chao, and the sound in her mouth was slurred, and the sky was dark when the two kissed, and she almost couldn't breathe, so Chen Chaocai reluctantly let go of the Queen Mother.

"You're crazy......! The makeup of this palace has been smeared by you! You, you, this palace is really going to kill you......" The queen mother stomped her feet angrily, and her palace skirt swayed.

Chen Chao wiped his lips with his fingers, and smiled at the corner of his mouth: "Little Ancestor, you really don't blame me, you are so beautiful tonight, I can't help but ......"

"Let's go, don't think too much about me......"

Chen Chao waved his hand and quickly disappeared into the silent palace.

After Chen Chao left, the Queen Mother couldn't bear it anymore, her face turned red with anger, and she gritted her teeth for a long time

In the end, it only turned into a sound:

"Phew!"

"Who is your little ancestor...... This palace is the queen mother! Dowager! ”

"If you die Chen Chao, you will bully me!"
