Chapter 1096 1096: Southwest Layout (Part 2) [Please vote](1/2)

The messenger only felt that the air was dry and hot.

When I came back to my senses, my heartbeat was so excited that it was about to jump out of my throat.

This Zen edict was a double guarantee for him.

First, if the two countries are at war without killing the envoy, it is nonsense to deceive children. Shen Tang still needs to help her bring the edict back, and she will not kill him, which can ensure that there is no risk of life during this mission; second, Zen As soon as the imperial edict came out, Wu Xian, the current leader of the country who was deeply trapped in the enemy's camp, could legitimately and legally become the Supreme King. His political value plummeted. Except for the original confidants who would insist on nagging a few words, other ministers, including the clan, could relax. Tone, abandon him without any burden, your reputation will not be damaged, and double happiness will come to your door!

As for Shen Tang rejecting peace talks?

The messenger is more inclined to think that she has a bargaining mind.

The Zen edict in his hand is the best proof!

If you have no intention, why would you give yourself this Zen edict that is beneficial to Gao Guo? Isn't this a tactful release and a good message? Isn't the subtext - [The steps have been prepared for you. If you can't get down, you will be shameless. Face!】

This move can not only detain Wu Xian openly and demonstrate the country's strength, but also put pressure on Gao Guo, allowing Gao Guo to take the initiative to offer more bargaining chips. The envoy secretly wiped his sweat, fearing: "She is really a terrible and scheming woman. ."

He carefully put the edict in his sleeve, knowing that he would not die. The envoy felt confident and upright, and said without being humble or arrogant: "I will take the words of Lord Shen back intact and give a reply after discussing with all my colleagues. "

"If there is nothing else to do, please leave the envoy."

The young man had a broken temperament, as if a gust of wind could blow him to the horizon, but the envoy did not dare to slack off at all. During the battle between the two countries, the envoy could see with his own eyes the frail young man transformed into a burly military general, charging as bravely and fiercely as a real general.

He carefully made the request to test Kang Guo's attitude.

"I have another unkind request."

"Excuse me? Oh, please tell me."

The messenger said: "I want to see the Lord."

"This 'please' won't work!" Gu Chi was not surprised by the content of the request. He sneered at the corner of his lips and refused without thinking: "Without the Lord's handwriting, no one can see Duke Zhaode. The Lord and Duke Zhaode have been known to each other for many years. In friendship, how can we treat our distinguished guests badly?"

"Of course I trust Lord Shen, but all the ministers in the court are concerned about the safety of the Lord. If I can't see him safe and sound with my own eyes, how can I convince other ministers? I don't have the nerve to go back to see him. Please forgive me for this matter." , do me a favor."

"If you insist on seeing me, Gu can send someone to ask the Lord."

The messenger knew clearly that asking questions would yield no results and would anger people, so he had no choice but to resort to tricks that had always been tried and true.

His eyes signaled his attendants to bring a box.

This box alone is expensive to make.

The wood grain has gold threads, forming a small natural landscape painting.

Looking at it, it is quiet and elegant, as bright as clouds and brocade.

Even people who don't know the goods can recognize the value of this item.

Not to mention people who know the goods.

What object is in the box that is worthy of the golden nanmu box?

He pushed the thing out, and his tone was a bit displeased and warning: "What do you mean by this? Do you want to bribe me?"

The messenger's expression was subtle and stiff: "Of course not."

How can a scholar pay bribes?

This word is too unpleasant, and scribes should use elegant words.

Gu Chi raised his eyebrows: "No?"

"A unique and beautiful jade is naturally worthy of the most elegant gentleman in the world. If this thing falls into the hands of ordinary people, it will be a waste. Today, after meeting Gu Yushi, I realized what it means to have a bandit gentleman, so I found a home for it. I only talked about fate, not

Talk about worldliness!”

Gu Chi: "..."

Can any gangster be like him?

This is talking nonsense with your eyes open.

Gu Chi turned around in his heart, and finally he was willing to give the envoy a three-point smile and accepted the generous gift. He promised to take the envoy to take a look at Wu Xian from a distance, and pretended to be embarrassed: "... Gu can only

If you can achieve this step, if you are allowed to have private contact and someone else reports it to the Lord, the Lord will definitely blame you."

The messenger hurriedly agreed and was overjoyed.

People who don't know think he is Wu Xian's best friend.

Although he was more than a hundred steps away, the envoy recognized Wu Xian's aura at a glance. Judging from Wu Xian's aura and complexion, he really didn't suffer much in the Kangguo Camp these two days. In addition to his strength being sealed, his range of movement was restricted.

, otherwise considered free.

No, it should be said that freedom is too much!

The main camp is a heavily guarded military area. Even the soldiers under Shen Tang's tent, who belong to different battalions, are not allowed to run around. The scope of activities is strictly limited to specific routes. How many people are said to be prisoners of Wu Xian's treatment?

letter?

Haha, Wu Xian's die-hard confidants are still worried that he can't bear the humiliation and may find an opportunity to commit suicide to save his dignity. If they see Wu Xian's appearance at this moment, they don't know whether they feel more distressed or feel more stuck in their throats. The messenger's psychological activities cannot be escaped.

Chi's eavesdropping, he deliberately interrupted: "It's time."

The messenger could only retract his complicated eyes.

He forced out a smile: "Thank you!"

Gu Chi smiled and said nothing.

The messenger also showed a tacit smile when he saw this.

Their tacit understanding is unspoken.

The envoy carried the edict from the Zen position to the young master, and hurried back to return to his life. His heart was agitated. Gu Chi watched his back disappear into the horizon, and turned around to go to the main tent: "My lord, guess what good thing I got today.

?”

Shen Tanggang ordered two bowls of soothing soup.

Chong Gu Chi spread his hands and said, "Good things come to those who see them."

Gu Chi smiled and took out the wooden box and handed it to her. He and Shen Tang looked at what treasures were in the box. The two heads were almost close to each other, one was surprised and the other was confused.

The surprised person was Gu Chi.

"Such a rich green jade stone is rare in the world."

The moment the box was opened, Gu Chi's eyes were firmly caught by the bead lying in the middle, and he could no longer move away. It was a jade bead the size of a baby's fist. It was rich in color and flawless at first glance. No wonder the envoy would It's a face full of pain.

The doubtful person is Shen Tang.

She randomly picked up the bead and put it in front of her eyes.

He weighed it twice: "It looks like beads made of glass."

Imperial green glass beads are worthless.

The real value is the box.

Shen Tang threw the glass beads to Gu Chi.

"Whoever sees it has a share. I'll give you the beads, and the box will be mine."

Gu Chi didn't expect Shen Tang to be so casual. He hurriedly caught the bead. Seeing that Shen Tang was holding the golden nanmu box in his arms like a treasure, he was speechless: "My lord, please pay attention to your image."

Shen Tang said: "A poor ghost has no image."

She still has a lot of debt that she has not repaid.

Speaking of debt, Shen Tang then thought of the envoy from the Kingdom of Gao.

"He brought back the Zen edict?"

"It's like finding a treasure! Now Wu Zhaode has truly become an abandoned son."

"Who made Wu Zhaode such a failure as a human being? No matter whether he was the master, husband or father, he was not qualified for any role. It is normal to become an abandoned son. I really feel emotional, and also lamented how he managed to survive until now." Maybe it was the previous two bowls. The soothing soup began to take effect, and strong sleepiness gradually took over his brain. Shen Tang held on and asked, "Have our people set off?"

Gu Chi said: "I have already set off with two edicts."

One part is the son of Mi Shizi, who is in Zen position.

One portion is for the fifth son of Zen.

The messenger brought back the young son of Zen.

The Lord's arrangement is indeed a bit damaging.

The youngest son is only six months old. His biological mother has an upper-middle-class status in the inner court, and his mother's clan has a low status within the High Kingdom. He is an upstart who has gained some status through military exploits in the past few years, and his foundation is shallow. With this configuration, the youngest son is simply a A born puppet master.

The remaining soldiers and horses who had suffered a defeat were happy to see the success.

As long as they can reach peace talks with Kang State, it is more in their interest for the new owner to be young than to be strong and powerful - someone will always take the blame for this battle. The new owner may reuse them, but he may also use them as a means of establishing authority. Scapegoat.

The young master and the Queen Mother will rely more on the old ministers.

This is a force.

Let’s talk about the Five Sons faction.

Wu Xian's fifth son has grown up, and his mother's family is strong. This time he has the heavy responsibility of supervising the country. You must know that supervising the country is a treatment that only the crown prince can get! What will he do if he gets the Zen edict again? Will he admit the remnant? The Zen edict in your hand?

Isn’t this the beginning of a conflict between the two sides?
To be continued...
