Chapter 154
In the apricot month of the 15th year of Fengyuan, that is, in February, Wu Chu lowered his posture and sent envoys to Yanshu to make amends and negotiate.At the same time, envoys were sent to Sanglan Kingdom, but Sanglan Kingdom did not send troops. Its excuse for rejecting Daqi was that the prince was in Wuchu as a hostage.

It has rejected Daqi twice and Yanshu once.

Don't think that it is alone, it is actually waiting and watching, whichever side is stronger than the wind.Dingyuan Hou and Yan Gongjin, that is, the prince and Taifu felt that it could still be won, and it must not be dragged away by Daqi and Yanshu.

As for who to send as envoys, several veterans debated endlessly.Wu Taiwei thought that it was afraid of martial arts but not morality, so Song Hao should be sent there.How could Emperor Feng Yuan agree?Song Hao is a fierce general, and he is strictly guarding against domestic chaos.

Prime Minister Meng proposed to send his grandson Meng Ke there.

"Si Jing is eloquent, smart and capable, but his style is too heavy. I'm afraid the Lord Sang Lan not only doesn't take him seriously, but maybe he will be tied up and handed over to Da Qi." Guest Qing Zhang Han shook his head and vetoed.

After all, Meng Ke's grandfather was the prime minister of Wu and Chu, and his weight was not light.

As the grandson of an important minister of the Wu Chu Dynasty, falling into the hands of the Sanglan people, his use value is more attractive than the purpose of his mission.

"Why don't you send King Qing's Sun Fengge there?" Wu Taiwei saw that everyone was discussing the importance of envoys, so he said, "I heard that this son is bold and careful, and he often walks among the people, so he might be able to persuade Sang Languo The Lord cast aside darkness and turn to light."

However, Zhang Han still shook his head:

"To say something that offends His Majesty, the Feng Dynasty has little prestige in the eyes of the monarchs of various countries..."

In recent years, he was too passive in the face of Daqi's intrusion, and the civil strife was always unstoppable.The awe of Bei Cang from all countries is fading day by day. If Wu Chu can't solve this battle today, the countries of Kyushu can tear Wu Chu apart!

"This won't work, that won't work. As a guest, you can find a way!" Taiwei Wu is a big bastard, and his words are not very polite when he is in a hurry.

Even the sons and grandsons of the phoenix are not enough, so the other courtiers are even more impossible.

"Zhang Han, you might as well speak up if you have something to say," Emperor Feng Yuan said, and glanced at the prince, "Even if the prince is allowed to go, I don't blame you."

"Being able to contribute to Wu Chu, I have no complaints." The prince expressed his position immediately, and cupped his hands at Zhang Han, "If you have a plan, sir, it's okay to say it."

"The crown prince is the crown prince of a country, how can he be sent as an envoy so easily?" Zhang Han bowed back to the crown prince, looking hesitantly at Marquis Dingyuan who was listening quietly, "..."

Everyone instantly understood what happened, especially Taiwei Wu, who pointed at Marquis Dingyuan in surprise, and stared at Zhang Han incredulously:

"Sir, don't you want Marquis Dingyuan to be sent as an envoy?"

Marquis Dingyuan: "..."

Pfft, Zhang Han, who was in a complicated mood, was disturbed by Wu Taiwei's words, grabbed his beard and stared:
"Absurd! Marquis Dingyuan is the general of Wu Chu. When he goes on an envoy, I'm afraid that before he reaches the border, Sang Lan will be so frightened that he will form an alliance with Da Qi and Yan Shu!"

Others are too light, so Ding Yuanhou can't be pushed out to scare people!
"Your Majesty, Lord Hou," Zhang Han saluted the two respectively, and suggested:

"I think Bei Yueyong, the second son of the Marquis of Dingyuan, is the most suitable envoy to Sang Lan..."

Don't look at Bei Yueyong's attitude of an idle little official now. Not only is he talented as a literary chief, but he also refuted a group of academic officials at the "Hundred Sons Review" held by Guozixue when he was young and carefree, including Doctor's offering.

At that time, he was still young and didn't know how to restrain himself. He was sharp and impassioned in the comments.Hearing this, the students' blood boiled with enthusiasm, and they wished to witness those thrilling and great scenes with their own eyes.

After that time, the number of students in Guozixue decreased by half, and they bid farewell to their parents and left home.I vowed to travel all over Kyushu and witness Bei Yueyong's analysis of the current situation of various countries in person, so as to deepen my understanding of the theory of a hundred schools of thought.

The hundreds of schools whose names have been left in books have become history, and the world today belongs to these young people.

They want to create new miracles, and their names will last forever.

As an instigator, Bei Yueyong wants to travel around the world and increase his knowledge.Unexpectedly, after his fame rose that time, he became a minor official in the national collection room, and he was trapped in the small collection room since then, and never left.

The reason for imprisoning him in a disguised form is well known and tacit.

Now that he was suddenly pushed out, as his father, Marquis Dingyuan was not moved by it, but said with a normal expression:
"It is Quanzi's blessing to be appreciated by Mr. Wang; his life is not in vain if he can serve the country. However, the Marquis is worried that Quanzi has not seen the world, and may not be able to achieve the purpose of the mission, and disappoint His Majesty and all the ministers. "

"You don't need to be modest, what's the use of making irresponsible remarks here?" Wu Taiwei was very anxious, afraid that everyone would push back and forth to delay the opportunity, and said, "Whether it will be successful or not, you have to let him try it." .”

The rest of them looked at each other in blank dismay, wondering whether they should agree with Zhang Han's suggestion.

Let Hou Shizi go, what if he runs away?At that time, His Majesty will blame him, and whoever comes forward to guarantee will be unlucky; don't let him go, because he can't find a suitable candidate for a while.

"Father, I think I can give it a try." Prince Fengqiu was very decisive, "I have talked with Hou Shizi, and found that he has an extraordinary conversation, has something to say, and has a honest and stable character. He will surely live up to expectations. Return safely."

Regardless of whether Bei Yueyong is the proton of the royal family or not, his status as the son of Marquis Dingyuan is enough to cause headaches for Sang Lan and his ministers.Killing him or handing him over to Daqi and Yanshu will definitely attract revenge from the Dingyuanhou clan.

Even if Sang Lan does not agree to form an alliance, at least Bei Yueyong can save his life, and it may not be necessary to replace it with someone else.

As soon as Zhang Han's proposal came out, Emperor Feng Yuan already agreed in his heart, but it was difficult to express his opinion.Now my son stepped forward to speak for Bei Yueyong, and it hit his heart, so he looked at Dingyuanhou:

"Ayan, what do you think?"

Marquis Dingyuan immediately knelt down on one knee and said loudly: "The father and son are willing to serve Your Majesty and serve Wu Chu as a dog and a horse, but they are sent by Your Majesty!"

Just like that, at Sizheng that day, Hou Shizi Bei Yueyong was sorting out books in the library, when he heard that an internal official came to announce the decree, the court ordered him to go to Sang Lan as the emperor's servant, and set off on a certain day.

he:"……"

With a ignorant face, he subconsciously thanked him for accepting the decree. Even when the internal officer told him to go back and get ready, he still couldn't remember nodding his head in yes, he was very humble.

Until the internal officials walked away, he still held the imperial decree and continued to look ignorant, attracting attention and secretly ridiculing.

But no one noticed that his hand, which was holding the imperial decree in trepidation, trembled slightly, clenched tightly, and the veins showed slightly...

In mid-February, Hou Shizi Bei Yueyong and the Empress' nephew Xia Shoulin visited Sang Lan secretly as envoys.He also brought a copy of Lan Muqi, the prince of Sanglan, who was treated as a guest of honor by the king of Sanglan, and was treated with great courtesy.

It was said that it was a secret visit, but for some reason it spread to the ears of the emperor and ministers of Daqi.The king of Daqi quickly sent people to Yanshu, and the envoys of the two countries went to Sanglan to force them to hand over the two.

But at this time, the army led by Bei Yueli raided Daqi's barracks and caught him by surprise.And above the city where he was originally stationed, the banner of the flame pattern totem exclusive to Marquis Dingyuan was erected.

Marquis Dingyuan also came out!
Undeterred by the loss of his son, he was as heroic as ever.He stationed at the southwestern border, dispatched troops and generals, frightened the small countries and tribes brought by Yanshu and fled after hearing the news.

Yan Shu also wants to withdraw, but the peace talks are in progress, and he is reluctant to throw away the fat in his mouth.

However, Wu Chu's dispatch of Dingyuanhou was just a bluff. In fact, it was already at the end of its strength, the treasury was empty, and food and grass were unsustainable.The protracted war was not good for Wu Chu, so the imperial court had no choice but to give up the cities captured by Qi and Yan.

In the peach month, that is, in March, the envoys sent to various countries for negotiations returned one after another.Except for a few small countries that were devoted to Daqi, the rest of the envoys all achieved the purpose of persuading them to quit.

Including Hou Shizi Beiyueyong, Sang Lan and his ministers were of one mind and one mind, and he and his entourage were sent back to Wuchu safely and soundly against the envoys of Daqi and Yanshu.

However, Yan Shu immediately retreated after getting the advantage, and Da Qi became a lonely family again.The small country attached to it is weak, but it is better than nothing, and accompanied Daqi's army to stand firm.
