"Please give me some advice, uncle! I am deeply grateful and will repay you handsomely one day!"
Wang Ziteng was very satisfied with Jia Zheng's attitude. He put down the cup in his hand and looked at Jia Zheng and asked,
"Do you know why the court, with so many officials receiving official salaries, chose you, a fifth-rank official in the Ministry of Works, to be the imperial envoy?"
"This……"
Jia Zheng looked away with an evasive look.
Isn’t it because he was a little slow to bow his head in the court?
But if I say this out loud, Wang Ziteng will laugh to death.
However, along the way, Jia Zheng still thought about a lot of things.
He knew that his purpose in this trip was most likely to deliver heads to Qingfeng Village, so as to achieve some desired purpose of the court.
Thinking of this, he sighed helplessly.
Wang Ziteng looked at Jia Zheng like this and smiled slightly.
"I do have a plan that will allow you, my brother-in-law, to complete the imperial mission and escape unscathed!"
"What do you think?"
Upon hearing this, Jia Zheng hurriedly bowed and said anxiously,
"If that's true, then my uncle is my Jia Zheng's second parent. I shall repay him with all my heart for saving my life!"
Listening to Jia Zheng's excited words, Wang Ziteng waved his hand lightly.
"Oh, that's too much! That's too much!"
Then he smiled and said,
"Today, you will see and hear everything along the way. There is no need to hide anything. Just report it all to the Divine Capital!"
When Jia Zheng heard this, his eyes lit up. He turned around, clapped his hands, and gave Wang Ziteng a thumbs up.
"Wonderful! Wonderful!"
"The court will know that I am doing my best, and even if the peace talks fail, they won't blame me... But..."
Having said that, Jia Zheng looked at Wang Ziteng with difficulty.
Wang Ziteng stroked his beard with a smile and bowed in the direction of Jinling.
"I am under the order of the Lord of Great Wu and am fully responsible for the peace talks with the imperial court!"
Jia Zheng's eyes suddenly lit up, and he hurriedly bowed and asked,
"Then may I ask, uncle, what does the Lord of Great Wu think about the peace talks?"
Wang Ziteng saw this and said with a smile,
"Since I appear here, I naturally represent the will of the Lord of Great Wu!"
"Oh? Please help me solve this confusion, uncle!" Jia Zheng bowed hurriedly and asked for advice.
Wang Ziteng didn't care at all about Jia Zheng's way of addressing him in a way that brought them closer.
It just so happened that he also needed Jia Zheng's cooperation so that he could successfully complete the task assigned to him by Li Qingfeng.
Then the words that had been prepared long ago came one after another.
"Of course we have to talk, and we will definitely make peace!"
"Otherwise, if we fight each other, wouldn't that benefit the Tartars from outside the Nine Borders?"
As he spoke, Wang Ziteng tapped his fingers on the table.
"But how should we discuss this? This is indeed a matter of some importance. The Great Wu of today is no longer the Qingfeng Village of the past. The Lord of the Great Wu now owns countless towns and cities. How can he command hundreds of thousands of elite soldiers and generals?!"
"Lord Jia has brought an imperial decree... Can this small temple hold a great deity?"
Hearing Wang Ziteng call him Lord Jia, Jia Zheng looked thoughtful.
Suddenly his eyes lit up, and he hurriedly bowed to Wang Ziteng and thanked him.
"Thank you, uncle, for speaking frankly!"
Wang Ziteng smiled and nodded, then asked with a smile,
"Then tomorrow..."
Jia Zheng's expression became serious.
"Please make arrangements, Lord Wang!"
"Hahaha!"
The two old foxes looked at each other and burst into laughter at the same time.
When Jia Zheng arrived in Yangzhou to learn from Wang Ziteng,
Since Jia Zheng entered Yangzhou, the Wu Kingdom has lifted its blockade on news.
The information about Jinling and the movements of the Great Wu army also entered the capital and was completely revealed to countless people.
After receiving the report, Prince Shui Rong of Beijing County suddenly realized and said,
"I was wondering why Qingfeng Village was unwilling to cooperate with me, but I never imagined they had such a grand plan. Their ambitions are truly significant!"
Shui Rong's aide, Mr. Wu Zhai, also nodded solemnly and said with emotion,
"It seems the world is about to be thrown into complete chaos. It's still unknown who will win in the future!"
Water-soluble,
"Is this sir's statement too much?"
"Hasn't the so-called Great Wu already brought Jia Zheng, the imperial envoy, to Yangzhou? Doesn't that mean they're also willing to negotiate?"
