This prince is going to heaven

Chapter 340 Negotiating Peace (Two in One)

"Your Highness, what are you doing here?"

On the city wall of Yunzhou, Yang Ping Gaoyu and the Governor of Yunzhou all looked at Wen Ruyu anxiously.

How can they not be in a hurry, the three cities in the northern border have been lost one after another, and now the Huns can come to the city of Yunzhou at any time. If Yunzhou falls, then the city of Yanjing will be directly exposed to the Huns.

Where is Yanjing City?That was the capital of the Great Zhou Kingdom, where the royal family, civil and military officials were all there, and there was no room for any mistakes.

Wen Ruyu didn't seem to see the anxiety on their faces, but looked into the distance and said softly: "It's time to provoke their conflicts to erupt."

"Ok?"

The three of Yang Ping were stunned in place.

Wen Ruyu went on to say: "Send a messenger to Running to tell the two virtuous kings on the right of the Huns that Great Zhou wants to negotiate peace!"

As soon as he said this, Gao Yu and the governor of Yunzhou were shocked.

"Negotiate peace? Your Highness absolutely must not! I am a big country, how can I negotiate peace with the Huns? Although I have lost a few battles in Dazhou, there are still [-] soldiers in Yunzhou, so I might not be able to fight with them. Why negotiate peace?"

"Take a step back, even if we agree, how can the people of this world agree? Your Highness, what you have done is tantamount to pushing yourself to the cusp! Even if you are the prince, how can you stop it? How many people live in the world? This matter is related to the foundation of the country, I hope you think twice!"

Gao Yu persuasively said.

When Yang Ping heard Wen Ruyu's words, a thoughtful look appeared on his face.

After hearing what he said, Wen Ruyu turned to look at him with a light smile and said, "Why, is it possible that this palace is so unbearable in the eyes of General Gao?"

Gao Yu was stunned for a moment, he couldn't understand what His Highness the Crown Prince's words meant.

However, Yang Ping suddenly said at this time: "Could it be that the peace talks Your Highness made is false? Is it true that it aroused the conflict between the two sage kings on the left and right of the Huns?"

It suddenly occurred to him that Wen Ruyu mentioned this when he was in Running. At first he didn't quite understand it, but now that he heard what Wen Ruyu said, he naturally wanted to understand what His Highness the Crown Prince was going to do.

Although the Huns have always been very united when facing the Great Zhou Dynasty, the conflict between the Eastern and Western courts has lasted for several generations and cannot be resolved at all. If it were not for the royal court to suppress them to death, I am afraid They have already fought themselves.

Right now it seems that they are fighting against each other, but it is not the case. Now that the situation has been settled, if Da Zhou proposes to negotiate a peace, the two of them will probably be vying for the great credit.

And when the time comes, as long as I do a little trick on my side, the alliance between them will naturally be broken without attack!

Thinking about this point, Yang Ping looked at Wen Ruyu differently.

Although this His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has never been on a battlefield, he was able to come up with such a plan!
At this moment, Yang Ping thought of Prince Jing Wen Ruyan again, how powerful he was to rescue Ye Linxue with only [-] troops under the siege of King Youxian's [-] troops?

Although there are only two princes in the Tian family, each of them is more clever than the other!
At this moment, Yang Ping had to admire Wen Ruyu's boldness.To be honest, he didn't even dare to think about such a scheme, and even if he thought about it, he didn't have the courage to do it!

He is just a general, if he loses the three cities in the northern border, he might have been taken down by Zhou Tianzi long ago!
Wen Ruyu saw that Yang Ping had finally figured out what he was doing at this moment, and said with a smile: "General Yang is worthy of being the minister of the Great Zhou, and I really admire him for having figured it out so quickly."

Yang Ping shook his head helplessly and said, "Your Highness, don't ridicule me."

"I really admire you, not ridicule."

Yang Ping was startled.

It took me two days to figure out how you, a man who has never been on the battlefield, can be worthy of your admiration. What are you talking about?
Wen Ruyu seemed to have guessed what he was thinking, and said with a wry smile: "I didn't come up with this."

Yang Ping was taken aback again.

Wen Ruyu continued: "Do you still remember the letter sent by the guards of Prince Jing's Mansion the night Nianze City was destroyed?"

Yang Ping asked blankly: "Could it be that His Highness Prince Jing came up with this?"

Wen Ruyu smiled wryly again, and said: "Exactly, it's fine if I'm allowed to deal with the trivial matters above the court, but if I'm asked to lead the army to fight, I can't do it well, so how can I come up with such a plan?" ? If my second brother hadn't arranged everything for me in the letter, how would I have dared to do such a bold thing? I really admire you for being able to figure this out so quickly."

Yang Ping fell silent immediately.

It wasn't until now that he suddenly realized that he still underestimated him.

Gao Yu and the governor of Yunzhou who were on the side were also stunned after hearing Wen Ruyu's words.Gao Yu was better. After all, when he was in Zecheng, he already knew that His Royal Highness Prince Jing was also in the northern region, and he rescued Ye Linxue from the desperate situation with only three thousand soldiers.

But the governor of Yunzhou is different. How could he not have heard of Wen Ruyu's name before?
A dandy prince actually came to the battlefield?And His Royal Highness even lost three cities in the northern border after hearing his words?
Thinking of this, his legs trembled involuntarily. If he hadn't experienced countless storms and waves for so many years, he might have collapsed on the ground at this moment.

His Highness the Crown Prince, who had been placed with high hopes by the whole world, actually listened to the orders of the dandy Prince Jing?And still believed his words?
Could it be that the sky is going to kill me for a big week?
"Okay, now is not the time to talk about this. Immediately send a messenger to inform King Youxian of the Huns that I am willing to donate 50 taels of silver, 20 shi of grain, two thousand cattle and sheep each, and ten thousand pieces of silk and satin. , order to send a young woman of [-] years to the court of the Huns."

Yang Ping nodded and said, "I'll arrange it now!"

Guan Zipo.

After Mu Xiqiu and Wen Ruyan looked at each other with a smile, they opened their mouths and said, "The messenger from Yunzhou must have been dispatched by now, right?"

Wen Ruyan heard Mu Xiqiu's words, and there was a trace of solemnity in his eyes.

He knew that Mu Xiqiu could roughly guess what he would do next, but he didn't expect the other party to guess so accurately!

It's a no-brainer.

Mu Xiqiu deserves this word!
And Mu Xiqiu in Wen Ruyan's eyes naturally saw it, and asked with a smile: "Is Your Highness wondering why I can guess so accurately?"

Wen Ruyan shook his head and smiled, and said, "Mr. Han is a great talent, no one in the world can match him!"

"Your Highness is wrong. If I am really unparalleled in the world, how can I lose two games in a row in front of you?"

The two faced each other cross-legged, talking and laughing happily.

If you don't know the identities of the two of them, I'm afraid you will really regard them as a pair of bosom friends.

Wen Ruyan shook his head again, to be honest, he really admires Mu Xiqiu's great talent now.

He was able to achieve what he is now because he has been a man in two lifetimes, and he is familiar with the art of war handed down for 5000 years in the previous life, but Mu Xiqiu is different, he is a native of this world, he can do this, Doesn't it already explain the problem?

Wen Ruyan thought for a while, if he hadn't appeared here unintentionally, the whole world would have fallen into his hands within 20 years.

To be honest, Wen Ruyan knows the prince very well, and knows that he is one of the few wise men today, but compared to Mu Xiqiu in front of him, he still has some gaps.

It seems that my own appearance has unintentionally disrupted the order that this world should have!

Thinking of this, Wen Ruyan took another deep look at Mu Xiqiu.

"Actually, I have a question to ask Your Highness."

"Mr. Han, but it's okay to say."

"At the beginning, the Taoist priest behind me went to check on your body. According to him, he checked your body himself, and there was no breath at all. But why are you still fine now? I am very familiar with the tricks, and I want to know how you managed to hide it from him, maybe you still have a martial art that allows you to fake death?" Mu Xiqiu asked seriously.

Although there are many masters in this world, the martial art of Guixi has never appeared before, because it has never appeared, how could Mu Xiqiu think of it?

In fact, this problem has really troubled him for a long time, and what he told him is generally the same. He knows the abilities of the old Taoist priest very clearly. It is impossible for Shenhou to pretend to be exactly like a dead person.

It was precisely because he knew the old Taoist's abilities that even though he didn't want to believe it in his heart, he finally chose to listen to his words.

It is precisely because of this that the Huns' army came out in full force, leaving a very weakly guarded Yanziguan.

It was because of this that Ning Wan'er fell into Wen Ruyan's hands.

Then he was dragged here by Wen Ruyan, unable to warn the two wise kings left and right of the Xiongnu in time!

Originally, the Xiongnu had a certain chance of winning, but because of Wen Ruyan's fraudulent death, it turned into the current situation where it can be said that they must lose.

All of this can be said to be tied to this one thing, how can Mu Xiqiu not feel sorry for it?

He couldn't figure it out, so he asked.

Hearing what he said, Wen Ruyan nodded slightly.

Mu Xiqiu shook his head helplessly and smiled, and said, "Your Highness really opened my eyes, this time I'm not wronged."

As for how Wen Ruyan learned about the conflict between the Eastern and Western courts of the Huns, Mu Xiqiu didn't ask about it, and he probably already guessed it. After all, Yanziguan fell into his hands that night. With Wen Ruyan's ingenuity, It is not difficult to get this out of the mouths of those guarding the city.

"Mr. Han, why do you say that? Speaking of it, the Huns have nothing to do with Southern Chu. They occupied Yanzi Pass in the northern border of Great Zhou for nearly a month, and they should return."

Mu Xiqiu nodded. In fact, what Wen Ruyan said was correct. Although it was a pity to come to the northern border this time, it was actually nothing to him. The Huns were defeated. Although they did not meet his expectations, but After all, it also caused a lot of trouble for Da Zhou. This time their army went out to fight, and the consumption of money, food and supplies was not small.

And the consumption of Da Zhou is very beneficial to them Nan Chu.

If you say it like this, he didn't lose too thoroughly this time.

"As soon as the messenger from Yunzhou came out, the two sage kings on the left and right in Running City must be facing each other at this moment."

Run Ning.

The tent of the Right Wise King of the Huns.

"Report! Report to Your Majesty, there are people from Yunzhou, Great Zhou!"

King Youxian, who was thinking about what to do next with his eyes closed, immediately opened his eyes when he heard this, and asked, "What did you say? A messenger from Yunzhou?"

"Yes, Your Majesty, that person is outside the big tent right now."

King Youxian frowned slightly, the Great Zhou sent a messenger here at this time, could it be
Thinking of this, King Youxian sneered suddenly, and said, "Bring him in."

"Yes."

After a few cups of tea, a Confucian scholar in his thirties walked in Shi Shiran.

"Xiaosheng has seen King Youxian!" Confucian scholar bowed and saluted.

King Youxian gave him a disdainful look, then got up and stood there condescendingly looking at him and said, "Who are you?"

The Confucian scholar saluted slightly again, and said: "Xiaosheng is a guest of the Governor-General of Yunzhou."

"Menke?" King Youxian sneered, and then shouted directly outside the door: "Come here, drag this person out and chop him up!"

Two Hun soldiers walked in immediately and tried to set up Confucian scholars.

I saw the Confucian scholar said neither humble nor overbearing: "The two armies are fighting, and if you don't behead the envoy, I'm afraid that the right wise king's move is inappropriate?"

King Youxian seemed to have heard some big joke, looked at him and said contemptuously: "Why are the two armies fighting without beheading, this king will not listen to that."

Hearing what he said, the Confucian scholar immediately said, "Don't Youxian King want to hear my reason for coming?"

"Right now, all the three cities in the northern border of your Great Zhou have fallen into the hands of my Huns, and the useless prince Wen Ruyu retreated to Yunzhou with his remnants and defeated generals. If my army is approaching the city at this moment, how can Yunzhou be able to stop it? Can you come here this time? What's the purpose, isn't it just to negotiate a peace?"

It has to be said that King Youxian really guessed the idea all at once.

The Confucian scholar saluted again in admiration, and said, "I have long heard that the Lord of the Eastern Court of the Xiongnu is extraordinary, and seeing him today, it is just as rumored. Xiaosheng admires it. The purpose of Xiaosheng's visit this time is to discuss peace."

An inexplicable light suddenly flashed in King Youxian's eyes, and he said, "But I don't intend to accept your peace proposal. If our Hun army takes Yunzhou, Yanjing City will be directly exposed to our Hun army. When the time comes to invade Yanjing, attack Huanglong, and capture Emperor Zhou, wouldn't it be a great achievement? Why should I talk nonsense with you here?"

The Confucian scholar smiled slightly, and said, "I'm afraid King You Xian has underestimated me, Da Zhou."

"Huh?" King Youxian's expression turned cold.

"Although the three northern cities have fallen into the hands of the Huns, my Great Zhou still has an ambush behind you. Although the number of ambush is small, the fighting power is very strong. In order to guard against the three cities Being attacked by surprise, King Youxian must have sent a lot of soldiers to guard it, right?"

"You have only [-] troops right now, and you have [-] from each of the three cities, so you have [-]. Does King Youxian think that you can penetrate Dazhou with only [-] troops?"

　I don’t have a holiday this year. I’m really busy these days during Chinese New Year. New Year’s greetings, visits to relatives, small gatherings, class reunions, all piled up in front of my eyes. I can’t even refuse. I can guarantee it these days It is not easy to have two shifts, but my annual leave will be on the 25th of the first month. After a few days, I will have plenty of time. By then, five shifts every day will still be a problem?Do not worry.
