Chu Ning was completely disappointed by the actions of Emperor Han Liu Che.

He no longer placed his hope on this person and instead sought the next best option of rescuing Deng Hongwen.

Now Deng Hongwen is in Chang'an City of the Han Dynasty as an envoy, and Liu Che may kill him at any time.

Now Liu Che has been hesitating. He has not sent out any troops, but he has not attacked Deng Hongwen either. It is obvious that he is waiting for their refined steel crossbows to be delivered.

Once the hundred-refined steel crossbow is delivered, or if it is delayed in being delivered, Deng Hongwen will surely suffer a devastating disaster.

Deng Hongwen was the first top scholar in the imperial examination of the State of Chu and a confidant of Chu Ning who had followed him for several years. He did not want him to die in vain in the Han Dynasty.

Upon hearing this, Jia Yu and Su Tingmei frowned and looked at each other.

Although Jia Yu was more trusted by Chu Ning, he joined Chu Ning after Su Tingmei, so it was not convenient for him to fight for the right to speak at this moment. He stretched out his hand to signal Su Tingmei to speak first.

Su Tingmei knew the relationship between Chu Ning and Deng Hongwen. She was touched and took the initiative to step forward and said seriously:

"If His Royal Highness wants to save Lord Deng, perhaps he can only send a message to the Han Emperor to let him know how important Lord Deng is to our dynasty, so that the Han Emperor will be cautious."

"Also, Your Highness can transfer Lord Deng back on the grounds that the war on the front lines is tense and the court is short of people."

"Liu Che would not dare to refuse our reasonable arrangement."

Chu Ning nodded slightly when he heard this: "That's a good reason."

Just as he was about to agree, he caught a glimpse of Jia Yu who seemed to be hesitant to speak.

Chu Ning couldn't help but ask, "Master Jia, what do you think?"

Jia Yu looked solemn, bowed and said: "Lord Su is right, the Emperor of the Han Dynasty does not dare to reject our dynasty openly.

However, if Liu Che really wanted to kill Lord Deng, he would definitely do it in secret."

Su Tingmei's eyes turned cold: "Master Jia means that Liu Che openly agreed to our dynasty's request, but secretly sent someone to assassinate Master Deng?"

Jia Yu nodded slightly: "That's right, the Han Dynasty suffered a great loss at the hands of Your Highness last time. With Liu Che's character, he will definitely find a way to pay it back.

But the Han Dynasty is some distance away from our dynasty, and it is impossible for him to send troops to attack our dynasty. The only way is to kill Lord Deng to vent his anger. "

In the past year, the dynasties have often killed each other's envoys.

Even if Liu Che killed Deng Hongwen now, what else could the State of Chu do except verbally condemn it?

Su Tingmei fell silent when she heard this.

He had been guarding Hecheng during this period and did not have a clear understanding of the general situation.

What's more, Jia Yu was in charge of the Jinyiwei and his judgment on the major dynasties was far better than his.

Therefore, he did not object to Jia Yu's judgment.

At the main seat, Chu Ning's face suddenly darkened when he saw that the two had reached an agreement.

"So, Lord Deng can't escape this time?"

"No!"

Jia Yu's eyes flickered, revealing a chilling look: "Since we can't come to a deal with the big man, why not find someone else to do the deal with.

Your Highness can write a letter to Sima Yi, asking him to lead his troops to attack the Han army. Our dynasty is willing to provide them with food and fodder.

Sima Yi is now under attack from both sides. He is worried that our dynasty and the Han Dynasty will attack him from both sides. If our dynasty takes the initiative to show goodwill, he will definitely agree.

As long as Sima Yi launches an attack, the Han army will surely fight back, and our army will not have to worry about the Han and Wei armies intervening in this battle.

Once Sima Yi takes the initiative to attack, the Han Dynasty will not dare to stalemate with our dynasty, and Lord Deng can return safely from Chang'an City."

Instead of begging the Han Dynasty not to take action against Deng Hongwen, it is better to join forces with Sima Yi, the Han Dynasty's arch-enemy.

As long as Sima Yi sent troops and the Han Dynasty fought back, how could Liu Che dare to offend the State of Chu again under such circumstances?

Chu Ning couldn't help but laugh when he heard this, and gave a thumbs up and praised: "As expected of a poisonous scholar, this trick of diverting trouble to the east is very much in my heart.

In this case, I will personally write a letter to Sima Yi and ask him to send troops to attack the Han Dynasty immediately. My Yanzhou troops can provide him with food and fodder. "

After saying that, Chu Ning picked up the brush on the table, dipped it in ink, and quickly wrote a letter on the white paper.

After finishing writing, he took a look and saw that there were no mistakes. Then he signaled Jia Yu: "Leave this matter to you, Lord Jia."

"I will definitely live up to your trust, Your Highness!" Jia Yu took the letter, bowed, and left quickly.

Su Tingmei couldn't help but sigh at this moment: "I now understand why Your Highness wants Lord Jia to be in charge of the Jinyiwei. He is indeed the best choice."

It was said that Jia Yu's schemes were extremely vicious; he had only heard about them before, but this time he saw them for himself.

Chu Ning laughed when he heard this: "Master Su, don't worry too much. Master Jia's strategy will only be used on my enemies."

He raised his eyes and looked towards the Wei State, his expression suddenly became serious: "I hope Sima Yi can recognize the current situation and not make a wrong judgment."

Although he thought Jia Yu's plan was good, it would be difficult to implement if Sima Yi refused.

Su Tingmei saw that Chu Ning was a little worried, so she couldn't help but comfort him: "Your Highness, don't worry. Sima Yi has always been cunning and has a grudge against the Han Dynasty. Our dynasty is willing to provide food and grass, so how can he refuse?"

Chu Ning felt relieved after hearing this, and asked, "What is the current situation of the Qin army?"

"Your Highness, the Qin army is currently resting."

Su Tingmei said in a deep voice: "Last time their camp was captured by our army, resulting in the loss of all siege equipment and food supplies. Now they are replenishing these supplies."

He paused, frowned and said: "The morale of the Qin army is low, and it will take at least half a month to recover. On the contrary, the battle situation in Feihe City is very tense.

Ying Zheng led the army in person. Although General Xue Huaide and Zhao Yu were resisting there, the Qin army attacked day and night. Both sides were exhausted and lost a lot of soldiers.

Once Feihe City is lost, it will be a huge trouble for the coalition forces of our two countries. Your Majesty, please respond as soon as possible."

The recent defeat of the Qin army in Hecheng is not an example. On the contrary, the Qin army in Zhou Chao's Feihe City is very brave and is currently attacking the city.

Once Feihe City was lost, the Qin army could march straight into the heartland of the Zhou Dynasty.

Thinking of Wu Zhao's exquisite face, a hint of tenderness flashed in Chu Ning's eyes.

He would never let the Qin army capture Feihe City!

"Don't worry, this palace and the Queen of Great Zhou have already made arrangements in advance, and will wait for the right opportunity to give Ying Zheng a big surprise!"

Chu Ning snorted coldly: "Ying Zheng is invincible because he leads the army in person, but he underestimated the strength of the Chu-Zhou coalition."

"Now we just need to wait for Sima Yi's reply, and our army will immediately attack Wang Jian's army, defeat this Qin army, and kill them into the heart of Qin!"

Maple Leaf City has Chu Kuang and Ma Chao, as well as tall city walls, so they will definitely be able to hold on. There is no need to worry for now.

The most urgent task is to let Sima Yi send troops to rescue Deng Hongwen, so that he can attack Wang Jian with peace of mind!
