524. Chapter 524 Spreading Rumors
Zhang Yi raised his glass of wine and toasted the guests with a glass of wine. His words and behavior were clearly meant to end the banquet. Everyone could see clearly, so everyone drank the wine in the glass and prepared to leave.
Zhang Yi specially ordered Zheng Cheng to lead more than a dozen plainclothes warriors in his entourage to carry the prepared money into the carriages of the two most important figures in the Chu State.
Of course, these two people are the prince Mi Huai and the ruling Yin Zhaoyang. The prince Mi Huai drank a lot of wine and was already a little drunk. He kept asking about Ying Han's whereabouts and said that he wanted to find Ying Han. Under Qu Mu's command, the prince's entourage half-pulled Mi Huai to the carriage, and almost forced him away.
Qu Mu did this because of the prince's consideration. He, a drunk man, went to see the princess Ying Han of Qin, and might have to do something extraordinary. Little did he know that during the time when Lao Wang was seriously ill, the prince had to fast and live a life of life. He was strictly forbidden to have a secret fun with women. If he had no trouble, he would also be in his own body and not be confused.
Besides, what is this place? It is the Shangshe of Chu State, with many people talking. There were already many inappropriate points in the prince's words just now, and it was probably heard by the servants in the Shangshe. For example, what makes Lao Wang happy with marriage may spread throughout Yingdu City tomorrow.
If he didn't care about the prince, if he really entered the Qin princess' room and did not come out for a long time, he would not have to tell him gossip. Qu Mu thought of this terrible consequence. Out of loyal protection to the prince and for the power he was about to get, he also decided to stop the prince Mi Huai and force him back to the palace to continue his life of fasting and praying.
Taking advantage of the chaos of Qu Mu taking away Prince Mi Huai, Zhang Yi sent Zhaoyang to his carriage. Zhaoyang bowed and said, "You and I are the prime ministers of Chu and Qin. We should work together to do something beneficial for the two countries. I wonder what you think, Prime Minister Zhang."
Zhaoyang's tone was quite polite, because Zhang Yi, who was standing in front of him recently, was no longer the down-and-out scholar of the past. But the prime minister of the great country. If it were about the strength of the country, Qin would be far better than Chu. If it weren't for the Qin army to escape from Mianchi, how could Zhang Yi, the prime minister of Qin, come to Chu to invite him to Zhaoyang?
Zhaoyang was very clear about this, so he was able to stick with Zhang Yi, get close to him, leave a way out for himself, and also gain some benefits for Chu. At this time, the world was in chaos, and the powerful ministers of various countries offended the monarchs of their own countries and powerful powerful people. It was normal for them to choose to flee to other countries. Why did Zhaoyang make a move in front of Zhang Yi and eliminate his possible retreat?
Although he did not have any deep grudges towards Su Qin, if Su Qin was standing in front of him at this moment, he would still seem intimate and familiar with each other. Zhaoyang is already an old man in the officialdom, and has been struggling on this road all his life, and he is very familiar with interpersonal communication in the officialdom.
Zhang Yi also seized this opportunity. He saw Zhaoyang's intention of making friends and winning over, reached out and enthusiastically grabbed Zhaoyang's hand, saying, "It is very honorable that I, Zhang Yi, can be favored by Zhao Lingyin. Tomorrow, I will visit Zhao Lingyin's Lingyin's mansion and have a chat with Lord Lingyin alone. I wonder if Zhao Lingyin is convenient?"
When Zhaoyang heard that Zhang Yi was visiting, he thought he was interested in contacting and establishing friendship, so he replied readily: "Then I will wait for Prime Minister Zhang at Lingyin's mansion tomorrow."
He didn't know that Zhang Yi had other plans. After the two agreed, they broke up and went to work on their own other things.
Zhang Yi returned to the upper house. He first wanted to see how Zheng Cheng and others cleaned up the end of the banquet. When he arrived in the hall, he saw Ying Han waiting there.
Ying Han said with complaints: "Prime Minister Zhang initially promised me to cooperate with the Prince of Chu tonight, and you can give me freedom. Unexpectedly, during the dinner, I kept showing my attention to Prince Mi Huai, making him seem to be determined to make this marriage. I wonder what you are planning, why do I think you are coaxing me?"
Zhang Yi looked at Ying Han, but was not angry, but laughed. He joked with Ying Han, "Miss, you are scared, right? I think the prince Mi Huai is thinking about you. If you don't get you, you will never give up. We are in other people's territory, and strong dragons can't defeat local snakes, so we have to follow them."
Ying Han was worried that she would be entangled by Mi Huai. After hearing Zhang Yi's words, she didn't think about jokingly. She was so anxious that she burst into tears and said sobbingly: "What's the reason why your great Prime Minister of Qin actually deceived a little girl? If I hadn't forced me to marry Mi Huai, I would rather commit suicide. I will do what I say, if you don't believe me, just try it."
Seeing that Ying Han was so anxious that he was almost crazy, Zhang Yi didn't dare to joke with Ying Han anymore, and said with a smile: "Miss Ying Han, don't worry, Miss Ying Han, I am a big man, even if I am not a figure in Qin, I will not take you as a victim of the future of a little girl. I am teasing you. Who would have thought you were anxious and took it seriously."
Ying Han realized that Zhang Yi was joking, and then he stopped his tears and burst into tears. She was still a little worried and asked, "What are the tricks of Prime Minister Zhang that can help me get rid of Mi Huai's entanglement? Why can't I see a way out at all?"
Zhang Yi was unwilling to tell Ying Han in detail about his plans and practices. He said vaguely: "People are not free, just like you were forced to come to Chu State by your father. Then Mi Huai naturally did not do whatever she wanted. If he wanted to marry a princess of Qin as his wife, someone would object. If we work hard on which oppose people, can we turn things around?"
Ying Han nodded, as if he understood Zhang Yi's plan, but he didn't know where he was going to start. At this time, Zheng Cheng happened to come in from outside the door. After he dispersed from the banquet, he began to direct the servants in the upper house to clean up the mess and were busy all the time.
When Zhang Yi saw Zheng Cheng, he called him to his side and said to him: "General Zheng, don't rush to clean up the house first. I want to explain something to you. You have memorized it."
Zheng Cheng stood respectfully beside Zhang Yi with his hands down and replied, "I will obey the order, and the Prime Minister will tell you."
Zhang Yi instructed: "You should come and call the servants from Chu who were serving the banquet just now and reveal a message to them, saying that the prince of Chu, Mi Huai, fell in love with the new princess of Qin and wanted to marry the princess of Qin and become the wife, and form a marriage between Qin and Chu."
