The Jagged Empire of Daqin

"I heard that the Qin Dynasty is planning to attack our Xia Dynasty, so the court decided to join the Zhao Dynasty's call!"

"Don't be fooled by Zhao Dynasty, Daxia can't afford to lose!"

"What will Daxia use to attack Qin?"

"What are you going to use to defeat Qin? Don't you know how strong our Great Xia army is? That is an existence that even the Zhao Dynasty can't afford!"

"Our Great Xia army is formidable, but for so many years, the princes have consumed each other, and their strength is not [-]% of what it used to be. This time, the Qin Dynasty will be defeated!"

"You must not lose, the policies of the Qin Dynasty are all about digging our roots!"

"This time, the imperial court not only suppressed the fate of the Great Xia Kingdom, but also suppressed the fate of our aristocratic scholars. Everyone, we can't sit idly by. Let me take the lead and donate 100 million taels of silver to the imperial court. Make a little contribution to defeating Qin!"

"Okay, I'll donate too!"

As soon as the announcement was made, the aristocratic masters and Shi Kun masters of the Shangqiu imperial capital gathered together to discuss major issues. Most of the aristocratic Shikun were not optimistic about the imperial court joining the Zhao Dynasty to conquer Qin, and it was precisely because they were not optimistic , Those who donate money donate money, those who donate food donate food.

The reason for this is not that these aristocratic Shikun are so patriotic, it is entirely because they don't want the Great Xia to perish, otherwise, under the policies of the Qin Dynasty, there is no room for the aristocratic Shikun to survive.

On the surface, helping the imperial court and the country with awe-inspiring righteousness is actually for the benefit of oneself.

If the Qin Dynasty promised not to implement the free school system, the tenth-class peasant system, and the mandatory reserve camp system in the Xia Realm, it is estimated that many aristocratic scholars would join the Qin Dynasty and help the Qin Dynasty destroy the Xia Dynasty. Anyway, they would have had enough of the Xia Dynasty’s internal affairs Confused.

It's a pity that the Qin Dynasty was too cruel to Shikun of the aristocratic family, and spared no effort to suppress them.

The next day, the 27th year of Shengqin, August [-]th!

On this day, Emperor Xia and Ji Zhan left the Shangqiu imperial capital with [-] imperial guards, and made a detour to the Wuzhong Kingdom through the eastern border of Zhao, preparing to participate in Zhao Dan's feast of emperors from all over the world!

Great Xia Dynasty, Sui County!

Sui County is located in the southwest, bordering Zhao Dynasty and Zheng State, with a population of about 60 to [-]. In the entire Daxia Dynasty, Sui County is considered a relatively wealthy county. The city of Sui County is a hundred cities, and a hundred cities are the county city , and the city was sealed off by Ji Changluo, King of the Han Dynasty.

Hanwang Ji Changluo is the eldest son of Xiadi Jizhan, who is well-educated and proficient in tactics and strategy. He is also one of the four kings' rebellion.

Hundreds of cities, county guards' mansions, and courts!

In the official hall of the county guard, the 34-year-old Han Wang Ji Changluo was wearing a red python suit and a silver crown on his head, ranking first. His disciples sat on the left and right sides of the hall, and in the center of the hall stood an old man in his 50s. .

The old man was dressed in a meticulous silver leopard patch court uniform, and he could tell he was a military officer at a glance. This old man was one of the five Zhao envoys to Xia Dynasty. His name was Zhu Zheng. territory.

In addition to the identity of General Xiao Zhan, he also has another identity, that is, the younger brother of Zhu Ci, the current Empress Dowager of Great Zhao.

Zhu Zheng, who has a strong background and identity, suddenly visited Baicheng, and he was upright under the banner of going to Xia Zhao, which is a banner between countries. This made Han Wang Ji Changluo flattered, and hurriedly called all the guests under his command to gather together to entertain Zhu. just.

Of course, hospitality is secondary, the main thing is to let the diners see what kind of medicine Zhu Zheng and Zhao Chao are selling in the gourd.

"Your envoy came all the way from afar and ran all night. It's really hard work!" Hanwang Ji Changluo looked at Zhu Zheng with a half-smile, as if guessing Zhu Zheng's reason for coming.

The doormen on both sides of the hall were also sizing up Zhu Zheng, staring at Zhu Zheng's eyes, but Zhu Zheng's eyes were calm and calm as usual, and it was difficult to guess his inner thoughts.

Zhu Zheng smiled lightly, "Your Highness the King of Han, don't try to test me, let me just say it, this time I came here to give His Highness the King of Han a chance, a chance for the crown prince!"

Everyone was shocked, Han Wang Ji Changluo narrowed his eyes slightly, and a few bright lights bloomed, "Your envoy is telling me, where did this opportunity come from? Could it be possible, haha, you Zhao Dynasty can decide?"

"To be busy in the future, can His Highness the King of Han give you a seat?" Zhu Zheng didn't directly answer Hanwang Ji Changluo's question, but asked for a seat.

When everyone heard this, they secretly guessed whether there was any implication in Zhu Zheng's words. In fact, Zhu Zheng was simply tired and wanted to sit down. Running around for eleven days in a row was really not something anyone could afford. This old bone is falling apart.

"Oh, look at your highness's mind, you are really confused." Han Wang Ji Changluo patted his head in frustration, and then hurriedly shouted to a doorman: "Don't be dazed, quickly bring a chair over , your envoy is not far away, how can you not treat him politely?"

"Yes Yes!"

The doorman responded quickly, and called the servants to bring a chair under Zhu Zheng's buttocks. Zhu Zheng bowed down and saluted to thank him, "Thank you, His Royal Highness!" .

PS: "Please book in full!"

Chapter 881 Zhao Xia Diplomacy ([-])

After taking his seat, Zhu Zhengxian breathed a sigh of relief and said, "To tell the truth, my Majesty sent five envoys to Shangqiu Imperial Capital, Huacheng, Yuecheng, and Dongguang respectively for this summer trip. Cities, hundreds of cities!"

"The envoys who went to the Shangqiu imperial capital are responsible for negotiating with His Majesty Xia Emperor, and asked His Majesty Xia to hand over the decision of the crown prince to Da Zhao, and Da Zhao will determine the candidate for the crown prince. Next time, give the four princes a chance!"

Hanwang Ji Changluo's expression turned ugly in an instant. He thought that the Zhao Dynasty had only sent one envoy, but unexpectedly, there were five envoys, including his father and three imperial brothers.

"Do you think my father will agree?" Hanwang Ji Changluo asked blankly.

"Yes!" Zhu Zheng said confidently.

"What's the reason?" Hanwang Ji Changluo continued to ask.

"The Qin Dynasty is going to attack Xia!" Zhu Zheng gave a hint.

Hanwang Ji Changluo's pupils shrank, and she was startled suddenly, and all the diners in the hall looked at each other in blank dismay, some couldn't believe it was true.

Zhu Zheng took out a letter copied from the alchemist's letter from his arms, and handed it to Han Wang Ji Changluo with both hands. Seeing this, the doormen at the side immediately walked up to Zhu Zheng, bent down to receive the letter, then turned around and walked to the first place, and handed the letter to Hanwang Ji Changluo.

Han Wang Ji Changluo opened the letter and opened it. He saw that the expression was exactly the same as that of Xia Di Ji Zhan. He was shocked when he saw it.

The Qin Dynasty actually wanted to sneak attack on the Shangqiu Imperial Capital to overthrow the Xia Dynasty’s regime in one fell swoop, and suppress the four kings who held military power through the officials’ family members and family Shikun of the Shangqiu Imperial Capital. I can't keep it.

After Han Wang Ji Changluo read the letter, he passed the letter to the nearest disciples, and then passed the letters one by one. After reading the letter, many disciples showed horror and horror, fully aware of the benefits and harms. .

"Is this letter serious?" A doorman couldn't help asking.

"Do you all think that I will play such a big joke with His Highness the King of Han?" Zhu Zheng asked with a smile.

"The letter says that it is a secret letter from Concubine Qin Zhao Ke. Zhao Ke is your Princess Zhao Dynasty. If you pass her secret letter to Da Xia, you will not be afraid that Emperor Qin will be furious and kill your Princess Da Zhao directly." ?”

"In addition, although the Qin Dynasty declared war on the Zhao Dynasty, it was actually against the Xia Dynasty. It was done in order to deceive others. In this case, the Zhao Dynasty can completely sit on the sidelines, and there is no need to leak secrets. This is very important to the Zhao Dynasty. What's the benefit?"

Another doorman asked two key questions in one breath.

When asked about this, everyone, including King Ji Changluo of Han, could not help but suspect that the Qin Dynasty wanted to fight the Zhao Dynasty, and the Zhao Dynasty knew that it was not the Qin Dynasty's opponent, so they made false letters, and the Laxia Dynasty was a helper.

"The first question is very good. I can answer it for you. The purpose of the marriage of the princesses sent by the Great Zhao School is for this. The second question is answered in four words. My lips are dead and my teeth are cold!" Zhu Zheng confided calmly.

When everyone heard this, they couldn't find a point of rebuttal, so they couldn't help but fell silent for a while. Han Wang Ji Changluo thought for a moment, and then said deeply: "The Qin Dynasty wants to destroy Xia, and my father, Huang, will probably become the foundation of the great Xia ancestors, so we have to compromise. , and hand over the right to decide the position of Crown Prince and Crown Prince to Da Zhao!"

"And Da Zhao can use his position as the crown prince to lure my highness and my three younger brothers to send troops to attack Qin. It's a good move. However, my highness ate this move. Come on, how can it be possible?" Can we seize the position of the crown prince?"

Hanwang Ji Changluo's answer was very straightforward, without going too far, and went straight to the point.

"His Royal Highness the King of Han is wise, so save yourself a lot of talking. The way to win the crown prince is very simple. It is to send troops to attack Qin. Whether it is His Royal Highness Han or the other three princes, they must rely on their performance during the attack on Qin to win the crown prince. position!"

"His Royal Highness, don't worry, the Zhao Dynasty guarantees fairness and justice. If anyone refuses to obey, my Great Zhao will send troops to intervene, and my Great Zhao will not go back on his word. To be honest, my Majesty has already gone to the Wuzhong Kingdom. Invite the emperors of all countries!"

"At that time, my Majesty will bring up this matter in front of the emperors of all countries. With the evidence of the emperors of all countries, His Highness the King of Han should rest assured?" Zhu Zheng said calmly.

Han Wang Ji Changluo was slightly startled, and couldn't help sighing: "It seems that this time you conquer Qin, your Great Zhao Dynasty is going to play a big game!"

Summoning the emperors of the world to discuss the plan to conquer Qin, isn't this big enough?Since the history of Kyushu, there has never been such a situation.

Zhu Zheng couldn't help but smiled wryly and said: "There's no way, the Qin Dynasty is too strong, and the Zhao and Xia two dynasties alone can't compete with the Qin army's tiger and wolf division!"

Hanwang Ji Changluo nodded in agreement, and then asked, "The plan to conquer Qin, how to do it?"

Zhu Zheng stood up from his chair, leaned over and saluted, and said, "On behalf of the court of Great Zhao, I sincerely invite His Highness the King of Han to go to the Kingdom of No End, and discuss with the emperors of other countries the strategy of defeating Qin. If His Highness the King of Han has nothing important to do, You can go to the country of no end immediately, so as not to be late!"

"Oh?" Han Wang Ji Changluo's eyes lit up. Originally, he thought that he would not have a part in the feast of the emperors of Wuzhong Kingdom, but unexpectedly, he was still qualified to participate. This is definitely a great opportunity. The emperor of the country can also open his eyes, with all benefits and no disadvantages!

"Okay, Your Highness can set off!" Han Wang Ji Changluo agreed without giving up this good opportunity.

Seeing Hanwang Ji Changluo agreeing, Zhu Zheng felt relieved, and wanted to sigh that he had lived up to the eleven days of overnight raids, and finally completed the task.

"There is one more thing that needs the cooperation of His Highness the King of Han!" Zhu Zheng suddenly remembered something.

"It's for His Highness to issue an announcement. His Highness participated in the attack on Qin, right?" Han Wang Ji Changluo guessed what it was all at once.

"His Highness the King of Han is wise!" Zhu Zheng bowed down again to salute and flatter him.

"It's a trivial matter. Before the king leaves, he will issue an announcement!"

"Then go down and rest first, and don't disturb His Royal Highness Han Wang's discussion!"

"Come here, send your envoy away!"

After talking about this matter, Zhu Zheng resigned and left. After Han Wang Ji Changluo sent someone to send Zhu Zheng off, he began to discuss matters with his disciples. Participate in the Qin Dynasty!

At the same time, he also prepared the accompanying guards and some necessary supplies, and prepared to go to the capital of the Endless Kingdom tomorrow.

PS: "Ask for a monthly ticket, ask for a full order, ask for a reward, ask for a recommendation ticket, and ask for four daily requests. I hope you will support me a lot!"

Chapter 882 Zhao Xia Diplomacy ([-])

Ding'an County!

Ding'an County is located in the south of the Great Xia Dynasty, bordering the Xiao Kingdom and the Chu Dynasty, with a population of 60 million. The county town of Anding County is called Huacheng, and Huacheng is the sealed city of Ji Changshui, the second prince of Daxia!

Hwaseong, Prince Yi's Mansion!

In a certain pavilion in the back garden of King Yi's Mansion, a man was standing beside a stone table, dancing ink. The man was about thirty years old, neither fat nor thin, neither tall nor short, and was wearing a loose white robe. The hair is scattered on the shoulders, revealing a free and easy bold and elegant temperament.

There was also a young woman sitting next to this man. The woman was about twenty years old, she was very good-looking, and her sitting posture was elegant and generous, showing her dignity to the fullest.

The former is the second prince of Daxia, Prince Yi, Ji Changshui, and the latter is Princess Yi!

Concubine Yi saw Yi Wangji's long water pen like a swimming dragon, she couldn't help laughing and exclaiming: "Your Majesty's pen and ink skills are becoming more and more powerful."

The gentle Yi Wang Ji Changshui smiled, "Really? My Highness thinks that there is still something missing!"

When King Yi smiled, the beauty fell in love, and Princess Yi couldn't help but indulge in the beautiful moment of King Yi's smile.

At this moment, a guard with a mask and a knife stepped forward, and when he reached the edge of the pavilion, he bent down to salute Ji Changshui, the king of righteousness in the pavilion, and said, "My lord, there is a person who claims to go to the pavilion. The envoy of Xia Zhao asked to see the prince, and from the official seal and the envoy he presented, there is no doubt that he is an envoy to Xia Zhao."

Yi Wang Ji Changshui's movements paused for a moment, and he drew an extra horizontal stroke on the beauty picture that was almost drawn. It turned into peach tree branches behind the beauty.

I have to say that Yi Wang Ji Changshui really lived up to the reputation of being an elegant scholar, so to speak.

Yiwang Ji Changshui put down the brush, picked up the drawn beauty picture, and handed it to Yi Wangfei. Yi Wangfei happily took the beauty picture, then got up from the stone bench, bowed her waist and said: "My concubine will leave!"

Prince Yi, Ji Changshui nodded with a smile, and then Princess Yi withdrew. After Princess Yi left with a few maidservants, Prince Yi, Ji Changshui sat on a stone bench and asked calmly, "The Zhao Dynasty sent an envoy to What are you doing?"

The guard with the knife shook his head, "This subordinate doesn't know!"

Yi Wang Ji Changshui picked up the brush again, and while playing with it, he said, "Weasels wish chickens New Year's greetings, don't worry, be kind!"

Hearing this, the sword-wielding guard immediately made a salute and said, "Then subordinate, let him go!" After finishing speaking, the sword-wielding guard turned around and left.

"Wait" Yi Wang Ji Changshui quickly interrupted the movement of the sword-wielding guard, and then said, "Let him in, let's see what kind of medicine is sold in Zhao Dynasty's gourd!"

"As ordered!"

After a while, the guards with a knife brought a man in his thirties to the edge of the pavilion. This man was wearing a silver Yunyanbuzi official uniform. Obviously, he was a fourth-rank official, and he was in charge of contacting Princess Yi. Changshui's envoy Ye Qing went to Xia Zhao.

Ye Qing, the official obeisance is the doctor of the fourth-rank etiquette department!

Seeing the Yunyan Buzi official uniform on Ye Qing, Yi Wang Ji Changshui who was sitting on the stone bench in the pavilion couldn't help but feel a little surprised, never thought Zhao Dynasty would send a fourth-rank official as an envoy to him in such a way of saving face.

"Your envoy, please sit down!"

Yi Wang Ji Changshui smiled slightly, and stretched out his hand towards the stone bench opposite him.

"Thank you, Your Highness Yiwang!" Ye Qing leaned over to express his thanks, and then he walked directly into the pavilion and sat opposite Yiwang Ji Changshui.

As soon as he was seated, Yi Wang Ji Changshui asked curiously with a smile on his face: "I don't know why your highness is here as an envoy?"

Ye Qing showed a mysterious smile, "Send His Royal Highness King Yi a fortune!"

"Oh?" Yi Wang Ji Changshui was undoubtedly even more curious. After taking a few glances at Ye Qing, she couldn't help but continue to ask curiously: "What good fortune does your envoy refer to?"

"The crown prince's position!" Ye Qing got straight to the point and didn't go around the bush.

Yiwang Ji Changshui's eyes narrowed slightly, revealing a few gleams, "Your envoy, please don't make a joke. Your Highness can't afford to make such a joke. Your envoy should think twice before speaking!"

People from other countries ran to him and said that he would give him the position of prince and prince. This is not a joke.

Ye Qing was well aware of Yi Wang Ji Changshui's thoughts, and immediately confessed: "To be honest, His Royal Highness, Da Zhao sent a total of five envoys to the Da Xia Dynasty this time, and one of them is here. The purpose of going to Da Xia is very simple. , persuade the four kings of the Xia Dynasty and His Majesty the Emperor Xia to join the call of the Zhao Dynasty and send troops to attack Qin!"

"If there is no accident, His Majesty Emperor Xia has already handed over the right to decide the position of crown prince to my Great Zhao. That is to say, the candidate for the crown prince of the Great Xia Dynasty will be determined by my Great Zhao Dynasty!"

boom!

Yi Wang Ji Changshui slapped his palm on the stone table angrily, the originally intact stone table cracked a few cracks instantly, Yi Wang Ji Changshui stood up, pointed at Ye Qing and angrily scolded: "You are so bold, you dare to intervene Believe it or not, my highness will send 30 troops to attack Zhao immediately!"

Ye Qing's expression was not the slightest bit turbulent, and he couldn't help laughing: "His Royal Highness, please be safe and don't be impatient. Da Zhao didn't intend to interfere in Daxia's internal affairs. It was really forced by the situation and had to do so."

"It's ridiculous, what kind of situation forces it, it's simply hateful!" Yi Wang Ji Changshui was furious.

"The Qin Dynasty attacked Xia!" Ye Qing confided calmly.

"What?" Yi Wang Ji Changshui was taken aback for a moment, and didn't recover for a while.

The Qin Dynasty actually wants to attack the Great Xia Dynasty?
