Chapter 922 Li Yuan is a smart person
A moment later, in a side hall in the Chu Palace City, Yu Xin and Li Yuan sat opposite each other.
At this moment, Li Yuan had an unconcealed smile on his face, and he was so happy in his heart.
You should know that Li Yuan has always been the target of being fooled by people from Zhao (mainly Mao Sui).
But what about now? Li Yuan now made the Zhao envoy, which was much more important than Mao Sui, just by relying on a beauty trick, messed up Yu Xin, and was played with by Li Yuan.
Now Li Yuan finally experienced the feeling of playing with others with a strategy. I have to say that this feeling is really so good.
In fact, if you think about it carefully, you will know that as the empress dowager of a country, Empress Dowager Li will certainly not be able to do such a private stealing, let alone openly having an affair with a foreign envoy in front of Li Yuan.
If this matter spreads, will it still be worthy of reputation?
The reason for this is of course because of Li Yuan’s strong push behind it.
Li Yuan was actually inspired by the mother of King Ji of Qin. Queen Mother Xuan.
Thinking back to the time when King Ji of Qin first ascended the throne, Yiqu in the north was still a small trouble.
In order to solve this problem, Queen Mother Xuan Mi Bazi took out her most sharp weapon and colluded with King Yiqiu to become a traitor.
After that, Empress Dowager Xuan gave birth to two sons for King Yiqu, and thus firmly tied the Yiqu people to the chariot of Qin.
Now, Li Yuan hopes that Yu Xin is also a person who can bring enough help to himself like the King of Yiqiu back then.
As Yu Xin's current identity, Yu Xin does have such power.
As for how to move Queen Mother Li with emotion and reason with reason, Li Yuan is very good at this.
Now the throne of King Chu, the son of Queen Mother Li, is not stable at all. Only Yu Xin can help King Chu to consolidate the throne.
What can a mother not be able to give to her son for her own rule? This is the case with Queen Mother Xuan back then, and the same is true for Queen Mother Li today.
The more Li Yuan recalled the whole story, the more proud he felt in his heart.
Do you, the people of Zhao, really think that Li Yuan is an idiot? I will prove it to you now. Your ideas are simply wrong!
With these pride in his heart, Li Yuan spoke without any haste: "Yu Qing, I think it's time to talk about what's next."
Since the situation is very good, then the next step is to take advantage of the victory and strike while the iron is hot.
Yu Xin, who was sitting in front of Li Yuan, had calmed down after so long. He looked much better than when he learned about Empress Dowager Li's true identity.
After all, Yu Xin has been in the political arena for many years, and he has naturally seen a lot of storms. Before, it was just because things were so sudden that they became confused. After such a period of buffering, he naturally became much calmer.
Yu Xin said to Li Yuan in front of him, "Let me tell me, what conditions do you want now? I can tell you that even if I agree with your conditions, if these conditions cannot be agreed to by the king, it will be useless."
Li Yuan nodded with a smile and said, "Don't worry, Yu Qing, I can save these things."
Although Li Yuan was not a high-ranking official in the State of Chu, he was the confidant of the then Chu Yin Chunshen Jun Huang Xie for a long time, and he also participated in many decisions and negotiations of the State of Chu.
Although the power to determine whether the negotiation is successful or not is in the hands of the monarch, the mastermind of the negotiation actually plays a very important role in the negotiation.
Otherwise, why would Zhao State send important officials like Yu Xin to Yingdu?
Moreover, in terms of Yu Xin's position in Zhao State, second only to Pingyuan Jun Zhao Sheng, as long as Yu Xin is inclined to Li Yuan's side, Zhao Dan must carefully and carefully consider Yu Xin's opinions.
It was precisely because of the above points that Li Yuan wasted such a great effort to get such a beautiful plan for Yu Xin.
As the saying goes, it depends on the dish.
If it were other ordinary envoys from Zhao State, Li Yuan would not have done this, at least he would not have let Mrs. Li do so later.
Li Yuan coughed and said seriously: "Yu Qing, that's it. I know that King Zhao likes land the most, so this time I am willing to pay the Korean land occupied by Chu State in the last war to reward Zhao State for sending troops to eliminate the rebellion of the three major families. But one thing is, if the Zhao army enters the territory of Chu State, then I must have the command of this army."
During the last Zhao State's war to destroy South Korea, Chu State nominally assisted South Korea, but in fact, it took advantage of the fact that when South Korea's Yangdi and Xinzheng were surrounded, it took the opportunity to occupy a large area of land on the Chu-Korea border.
Although the Chu people chose to withdraw their troops voluntarily due to civil strife and victory rates in the subsequent war, after the war, nearly one-third of the land in South Korea was still in the hands of Chu.
Now, Li Yuan planned to use these places as a price to exchange troops from Zhao State.
Yu Xin shook his head decisively without thinking, and said, "This matter must not work."
Yu Xin's refusal did not seem to be beyond Li Yuan's expectations. It can be seen from Li Yuan's face that still seemed quite calm when he spoke: "Why is this?"
Although Yu Xin seemed a little embarrassed because he fell into Li Yuan's trap, he was one of the most important officials of Zhao Dan's State of Zhao. He has stood firm in the political arena of Zhao over the years and has become stronger and stronger. Naturally, he has his own abilities.
At this moment, Yu Xin entered the role of such a negotiator and said in a deep voice: "First of all, since South Korea has been destroyed, then all the land in South Korea should be from Zhao. It is ridiculous if you use Zhao's land as a bargaining chip to send troops! Secondly, the command of the army is the top priority, and it is absolutely impossible for my king to agree to hand it over."
Yu Xin looked at Li Yuan and said in a deep voice: "I know what you want to say, but you must understand that if such a decision is reported, I will lose my official position and the trust of the king, while what you and the King of Chu will lose are life and future! Think about it yourself."
Li Yuan was silent.
Even though he was reluctant to admit it, Li Yuan knew very clearly in his heart that what Yu Xin said was really nothing wrong.
