The devil is coming

Chapter 989 Warning from Dayan

It can be as small as a small business among the people, or as big as a competition in the world. Sometimes, family members and so-called relatives are too involved, which is not beneficial.

The difference is that,

The common people look up and don't see each other, and they always have to bump into each other in business affairs. If they really fall out, the cost is small, but the price is relatively high.

The latter, on the other hand, is more relaxed.

Therefore, throughout the ages, the drama of father and son turning against each other and killing each other for the sake of that chair and the so-called "world" has been played out too many times.

The regent of Dayan was already cold-blooded in terms of human relations;
The Emperor of Dachu, both physically and psychologically, had long since broken away from the human category.

There was a fire in Yingdu, and most of the brothers were burned to death; to send bird pills, you can also send someone to deliver it to your sister;

Therefore,
The two women's previous "one family is the elder and the other is the short" was not to provide opportunities for the two men. In fact, the two women knew each other's "virtue" in their bones.

They are creating a gap between the two forces.

Jindong, nominally the Jindong of Dayan, is actually the Jindong of the royal palace. After a great victory, a large piece of territory that originally belonged to the Chu State was conquered; and the soldiers and civilians of Jindong never recognized the emperor as the only one. I recognize the prince.

Those who are truly in power do not need too much "affection", but they must take care of the emotions of the people below them.

Many times, you can do whatever you want for the sake of the overall situation and interests, but the people below...are always clamoring for face.

The marriage relationship between the two families is here.

One's own family members, even after being beaten to a bruised and swollen face, they still have to be one's own family members;
Furthermore, the Chu State's court has been arranging this matter for a long time. From the earliest time when Zheng Fan was officially recognized as the Prince Consort of Chu, during the holidays, officials from the Chu State's Ministry of Etiquette would bring gifts to Eastern Jin Dynasty to conduct favors. , and Jindong did not lose the etiquette, and there were comings and goings.

At the same time, the fact that the little princess of the Jindong Prince's Palace was a Fire Phoenix Soul Child was not a secret in Dachu.

The fire phoenix is ​​the totem of the Chu people. This symbol has gone beyond the scope of the court's legal principles to a certain extent.

The regent once said with a smile, “The great Chu tradition is in my family;
This is really no joke.

The so-called orthodoxy is sometimes too boring to be used as a wiping paper, but sometimes it is extremely useful. It is difficult for people to surrender, but it can make people give up subsequent resistance to the greatest extent after losing and be against you. Dominance produces identity.

Nowadays, the Jindong Palace still needs Xiong Liqing, a great Chu princess, to come forward, and a Chu traitor like Qu Peiluo Nianyao to serve as a liaison;

But when Zheng Lanxin grew up,
The direct disciple of the Sword Master, the female Sword Immortal with the blood of the Fire Phoenix came and directly took over the right to inherit the faith;
The regent could be a little more shameless and change his daughter's surname from Zheng Lanxin to Xiong Lanxin, or he could be a little more shameless and directly add a prefix or suffix: Zheng·Xiong Lanxin, or Xiong Lanxin·Zheng...

By flaunting his royal bloodline of the Xiong family, he gained the legal power of the ruler class;

The most important thing is that there is a Jindong Iron Cavalry behind Da Niu, who can cheer for her and show her absolute support. This is an iron fist.

at the moment,

This is almost the situation;
The recent round of defeat in the Yan-Chu War has caused a fundamental imbalance in the situation. On this basis, anything can be discussed.

but,

Considering the face of his wife and the fact that his mother-in-law was sitting here, the prince still gave him the respect of the Emperor of Chu and used the honorific title when he spoke;
Then just bow your head first;

This means the same thing as:

You are tired, give me a blow.

Get to the point,

The Queen Mother said: "The Ai family is a little tired."

"Mother, I will help you to rest."

Xiong Liqing helped her mother get up and leave the living room.

The blind man took out another orange and waved it in his hand;

Xie Yu'an smiled slightly and walked out of the living room with the blind man.

"Wait."

Zheng Fan stopped them, turned to look at his uncle, and said:

"I'll call Yu Huaping here, and you'll suffer a little loss, okay?"

Emperor Chu nodded.

The blind man and Xie Yuan left anyway, and then, a man in white clothes walked into the hall.

At this point,

It can be said that the Prince Regent was overwhelmed by Emperor Chu, at least in terms of his magnanimity and aura, he was defeated.

But the regent didn't care about these small things. He already had the big things in his hands, and he really didn't bother to care about the others.

The sword master said: "Dugu is here too."

The prince immediately said: "Let him wait outside."

Emperor Chu didn't respond, but not responding meant that the sword maker couldn't come in. He acquiesced that he was at a disadvantage within the radius of the living room.

in the living room,
With two people sitting and one person standing, the situation was settled.

Emperor Chu said: "What are you thinking about, sister-in-law?"

The prince replied: "I would like to ask Lao Yu if he is sure that he can send my uncle to heaven within three breaths."

With the woman in the family gone, the conversation between the men and their children immediately became unscrupulous.

"Hahaha."

Emperor Chu laughed and turned to look at the Sword Master.

The sword master said: "It's difficult."

Zheng Fan shook his head and said: "It's a pity, I'm still not sure."

There is no doubt that Zheng Fan believes that with the strength of the current sword master, it will be no problem to stabilize his uncle, but it is almost impossible to kill him in a short time.

Defeat and kill have never been the same concept, and the fire phoenix spirit in my uncle's body is better at defense.

"In today's Chu State, whether I am here or not, what difference does it make to you?" Emperor Chu asked, "It's nothing more than choosing another prince from among me to continue to survive.

On the contrary, if you let me kill you..."

The situation in Chu State is already very bad. No matter how bad it is, it can't get much worse.

But if something happens to Zheng Fan, first of all, the bond between Jindong and the Yan court will be directly broken, and Yan's pace of unifying the Xia will have to stop and start its own civil war.

Because Jindong's military and political model has always been firmly on the line of preparing for rebellion, it is no exaggeration to say that it is all thanks to him, Zheng Fan, to forcibly transfer internal conflicts to the outside world.

Zheng Fan touched his neck,

Laughing at himself:
"I never imagined that my life would be so important, more important than yours."

"There is a saying that has been circulating in Chu country that I should have strangled you to death when we were riding in the same carriage."

"The official of Qian Kingdom...oh no, the Supreme Emperor...hiss, no, in short, the previous official of Qian Kingdom also thought the same way. At that time, Thyme Lan's sword was almost on my neck. ”

Emperor Chu shook his head and said, "I can't bear to do it."

Zheng Fan smiled and said, "Let's get down to business."

"it is good."

"Brother, please lower yourself to a lower state and become a vassal to my palace."

"After surrendering to the state, I am still the leader of the country. A leader of the country, and I am a vassal to a prince?"

Emperor Chu paused.
continued:
"It doesn't seem to make sense."

"This is nothing in the Yan Kingdom. When I was a Marquis, I could kick the prince to the ground."

"If you can stand on your own at this time, I am willing to take the Chu Kingdom and surrender to you."

Emperor Chu gave his conditions;

If you, Zheng Fan, establish your country now, then my country, Chu, will immediately declare itself a vassal state and become your vassal state.

"Now is not the time." Zheng Fan said.

"When is the time?"

"It depends on the direction of the wind. Only when the wind is strong can the fire burn vigorously. So, brother-in-law, you might as well add some fire and burn it first."

"If you really want to be that Great Yan Zhongliang, what should I do?"

"Hehehe..."

Zheng Fan smiled,

The smile was a little exaggerated, not subtle, and even had to cover the mouth;
After laughing for a long time,
Zheng Fan finally stopped,

Road:
"What should you do?
No,

Uncle,
you,
so what? "

Emperor Chu's eyes darkened.

"My plan and my men have already met and discussed with my uncle and your people long ago.

I did not let the Chu State surrender to the Yan State now, out of consideration for my own family, to save some face for you, my uncle, the Chu State, and the Chu people.

I want to strike while the iron is hot and just turn around and attack;

Therefore,
I need Chu State to make way for me now,
Do not,
Not just give way;

I also need the Chu State to assist me, help me maintain logistics, help me clear the way, and even send some troops to help me fight.

I want Nian Yao to lead the way for me now just like he did when he marched into Qian Kingdom! "

"You want me to take the initiative to help you conquer the Qian Kingdom? Don't you think I understand the meaning of lips dying and teeth falling cold?" Emperor Chu asked.

"But if your lips are dead, why do you care about your teeth?"

Zheng Fan stretched his waist.
Road:
"The general trend is mine, the advantage is mine, destiny, hahaha, it doesn't matter whether it is there or not, what can it do to me anyway?
Uncle,
There is a way, we have to figure it out clearly.

It’s not that I’m begging you here now,

it's me,

Giving you a chance.

You disagree, fine, no problem. "

Zheng Fan stretched out his hand to pat the armrest of the chair.

Road:
"Then I won't leave, army. I will withdraw some of them back and leave some to garrison the newly conquered territory.

And me,

Go home, go back to my Fengxin City Palace;
Spend time with your children, raise flowers, practice swordsmanship, and take a bath.

After two years of rest, we have digested what we should digest, and we have stocked up on what should be stored;
It’s time for my bones to move again.

have to,
Then let’s have another war between Yan and Chu.

I'll come and attack,
Uncle, please continue to guard.

I come once every two years, and even if I attack a few small towns at one time, that's fine.

Five years later, ten years later,
Uncle, you can take another look at how much territory and population you have under your control.

Oh.
You don’t think that if there are another few national wars, I won’t be able to defeat the current Yingdu, right?

At that time,
Uncle, you are probably in a mountain village in Chunan, and the people jumping around you are all Shanyue people who are loyal to you.

Are you the Emperor of Chu or the King of Shanyue? "

Emperor Chu was silent.

What Zheng Fan said was unpleasant, but it happened to be true.

In the Battle of the Witch God, the Chu State was too completely defeated. The Yan people no longer had to take risks. They could simply rely on their national strength to slowly consume the Chu State to death.

If Zheng Fan doesn't attack the Qian Kingdom, then he will continue to sit in the east of Shanxi, and his forces will inevitably capture the Chu Kingdom.

The most obvious benefit of surrendering to the prince is the almost obvious alienation;
The hidden benefit is that the two sides can enter a period of peace, and I can take time to continue to sort out Chu Nan, accumulate strength, and wait for the opportunity. That opportunity is the day when Zheng Fan and the Emperor of Yan fall out.

Even if Zheng Fan and Emperor Yan don't fall out,

I can still look forward to the next generation...

Emperor Chu knew that Zheng Fan's son, the prince of the palace, had a bad temper.

Even if Zheng Fan is determined to be the Great Yan Zhongliang, what about the next generation?
What Emperor Chu is best at is probably...living a long life. "Be specific." Emperor Chu said.

"The two sides will declare their vassal status and divide the territory."

"Will you withdraw a little?" Emperor Chu asked.

Zheng Fan shook his head:

"I am riding a Pixiu. I can only go in and out. What I eat cannot be vomited out again. I even have to scrape more in some vague areas. The Chu defenders have to retreat further."

This condition is very humiliating and humiliating to the country.

However, Emperor Chu was not angry, but said:

"Where's the sweet dates?"

Zheng Fan leaned forward,
Looking at my uncle,
Road:
"The Qian Kingdom is rich in the south of the Yangtze River. What the Yan Kingdom wants is the people on the three sides of the Yangtze River. The water in the south of the Yangtze River, my uncle and I, have both been exposed to rain and dew. You can also bring back the blood."

"it is good."

"it is good."

Zheng Fan stood up, and so did Emperor Chu.

"there's one more thing."

"You say."

"Lan Xin can marry my prince."

In this era, it is not taboo for cousins ​​to get close to each other, and even the relationship between the characters in many love stories is between cousin and cousin.

Zheng Fan said nothing;
Emperor Chu continued:
"After Da Niu becomes the Crown Princess, I can abdicate early and become the Supreme Emperor."

Zheng Fan continued not to speak.

"Then the new king can die young."

Zheng Fan still didn't speak.

"Big girl, you can go to Sichen. In other words, I am willing to give the throne of Chu to your daughter."

Zheng Fan looked at Emperor Chu,

Word by word:

"If she really wants it, I, the father, can beat it down with my own hands and give it to her. Why is there no need for you, an uncle, to spend money?
What my uncle can afford,
She can give me more by kissing me.

and also,

Ji Chengjue didn’t even dare to propose marriage to me, for fear that I would fall out directly;

and you,

Just take a rest,

and also,

The next is not an example. "

Emperor Chu was actually a little surprised. He was surprised at how the man in front of him could switch between rational emotions and perceptual emotions in an instant.

Before, he was still a mature politician, but in an instant, he turned into a father who would do anything to protect his daughter.

"Liqing has a good husband, a big girl, and a good father.

Okay, I'll take a step back. I will choose a prince and send him to your palace as a hostage. "

"Why not the prince?" Zheng Fan asked.

"The prince is too old to play with the big girl and the others."

"It's okay. The prince who was sent here to me, as long as he behaves, he will be the prince from now on."

"You are a person who does things so easily that I'm not allowed to do."

Zheng Fan clapped his hands,
Road:
"Okay, we've finally reached an agreement. Next, we'll leave it to the people below to draw up the charter."

"There's one more thing I want to ask you."

"You say."

"If you want to borrow a road from me to conquer Qian, aren't you afraid that I will betray you along the way and join forces with the Qian Kingdom to attack you?"

Zheng Fan smiled nonchalantly,
Road:
"I will bring [-] Jindong cavalry. To put it harshly, without these [-] Jindong cavalry, it will be a loss to Jindong, and it will also be a loss to Dayan;
But the loss of [-] cavalry was huge, and it was just another Li Fusheng-style defeat.

As for me, if I couldn't escape, I would be suffocated to death by my uncle.

However, you can rest assured that the next thing that the proud soldiers I left behind, including my son, will do is to fight the Chu State to the death at all costs.

Dayan may not be able to unify all Xia.

But the state of Chu,
Must die!
Xiong,

Must be destroyed! "

Zheng Fan turned around and glanced at Emperor Chu.

this is a threat,

A clear threat,
A statement of fact based on strength.

"I still remember that time, when you were sitting on the carriage, you pretended to be Mr. Su and recited the song "Man Jiang Hong". In order to protect yourself, you even wrote "Yanlu" meat.

just now……

Zheng Fan, why were you born in Yan instead of Chu? "

The prince sighed,

Road:
"I thought God would know."

"I thought?"

"As a result, now I find,

day,
Also confused. "

……

Yanjing City;
palace;

royal study;
Eunuch Huang knelt on the ground, and sitting next to him were several pavilion elders;
Emperor,

Then he sat on the dragon chair and looked at the letter that Eunuch Huang had brought.

After reading,
Only then did the emperor notice that Eunuch Huang was still kneeling there.

He couldn't help but curse:

"Wei Zhonghe, where is your vision?"

"The slave deserves to die, the slave deserves to die."

Eunuch Wei immediately brought a chair and sent it to Eunuch Huang.

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

Eunuch Huang got up and sat down;
the emperor asked:

"Does the Prince Regent have anything else to say to you?"

"In reply to Your Majesty, when the regent gave this letter to the slave, he also told the slave, he said..."

"What did you say?" the emperor urged.

"Talking about Eunuch Wei, I said that he spoke well and was really discerning."

"..." Wei Zhonghe.

The emperor looked at Eunuch Huang. Eunuch Huang was ecstatic, but his expression was extremely embarrassing:
"Your Majesty, I don't dare to deceive you. The regent really said this at the time and asked your servant to help him vent his anger on Eunuch Wei."

"..." Wei Zhonghe.

Wei Zhonghe had ten thousand horned gentlemen rushing past in his heart at this moment.

Why is this person named Zheng so small-minded?
The hatred of that year,

He had to remember it for ten years!

But no way,

Wei Zhonghe could only kneel down and slap himself on both sides.

Road:
"Your Majesty, this slave is guilty."

"Hehehe."

The emperor laughed and said: "Okay, our regent has won the battle and has nothing to do but take it out on Eunuch Wei. Wei Zhonghe, just sacrifice yourself for the country."

I went to the Huanyi Bureau for a month and was temporarily replaced by Zhang Ban. "

"The slave obeys the order!"

The emperor put down the letter in his hand,

Facing the elders in front of him, he said:

"Chu State, you have to bow your head."

All the pavilion elders, including Eunuch Huang and Eunuch Wei, all knelt down:

"I and my servants (minions) congratulate Your Majesty and congratulate Dayan!"

Ji Chengjue nodded,

And said:

"Mao Mingcai."

"The minister is here."

"Prepare a decree for me:
When the state of Qian was young, he committed rebellion against his superiors, imprisoned and killed the emperor, and his principles were often reversed, making both humans and gods angry!

Oh, by the way, what was the previous reign name of the guy from the Kingdom of Qian? "

Mao Mingcai immediately said: "Zhengxi."

"Oh."

The emperor nodded,
Instructed:
"You write the first part yourself."

"I understand."

The emperor gave a general direction, and Mao Mingcai was responsible for writing it out. At the same time, he had to show that the emperor was very educated.

"But in the end, remember to add something to me."

Mao Mingcai held the pen and looked at the emperor;

The other pavilion elders all looked at the emperor;

The Qian Kingdom had two emperors in a short period of time. According to the old practice, it was sent to other countries to gain recognition, but here in the Yan Kingdom, there was no reply.

"Yan and Qian have been friends for generations and are both countries of the Xia Dynasty. Between the two countries, the monarchs, ministers and people are brotherly and friendly to each other, and are good neighbors and friendly..."

Mao Mingcai nodded slightly while recording.
All the pavilion elders also nodded seriously,
Obviously,

I deeply agree with the definition given by my emperor to the relationship between Yan and Qian;
The emperor changed the subject,
continued:
"When I was a prince, the late emperor once regarded Emperor Qian Guo Zhengxi as my role model, asked me to learn from him, and regarded him as his uncle from afar."

In the imperial study,

All the ministers nodded, indicating that this was indeed the case, as if they were the tables and chairs present when the late Emperor and His Majesty said these words.

"The Qian Kingdom is rebellious and does unethical behavior. If you don't correct yourself, then..."

The emperor stood up,
A slap on the imperial desk,
Shen said:
"Then I,
I will take my Dayan cavalry to avenge my uncle, Emperor Zhengxi! "

There is another chapter in the evening, about two o'clock, I will try to hurry up, hug everyone!
