Chapter 1191 Han Envoys Arrive in Chengdu
When the Han Dynasty first sought hegemony in the north, in order to boost its momentum, it enfeoffed the kings of Chu and Shu, thinking that they were pawns of the Han Dynasty to boost its momentum. Later, the two sides turned against each other.
The king of Chu was finished, and Liu Zhang, the king of Shu, was also deprived of his royal title. Now that he was no longer an envoy, it would be good if he did not engage in war. But even so, when the guard at Baishui Pass heard that the envoys from the Han Dynasty had arrived.
He was immediately welcomed in and rushed to deliver the news to Chengdu.
The news soon reached Chengdu.[
"Liu Feng actually communicated with the solitary king." In Chengdu, in a side hall of the Shu Palace, Liu Zhang was holding the news from the guard of Baishui Pass, full of surprise.
For months, Liu Zhang was hesitant to go to war with the Han Dynasty in order to show his goodwill to the Han Dynasty. This made Liu Zhang's mental state not good. His skin was slightly pale, his eye bags were swollen, and his eyes were filled with bloodshot eyes.
At this moment, after suddenly receiving the news, in addition to being surprised, his face also showed a slight blush.
For Liu Zhang, this is a good thing. Being able to communicate with him means that what Zhang Song said is somewhat reasonable, and there is still the possibility of easing tensions between him and the Han Dynasty.
After days of hesitation, he finally relaxed a little at this moment and felt decisive. So Liu Zhang raised his head, and the official who came to deliver the news said: "Please come over here."
"promise."
The clerk agreed, excused himself, and left.
"Liu Feng, Liu Feng, if you can accept the lonely king, you will be willing to be a free prince." Liu Zhang said with a somewhat relaxed smile.
Soon after, Zhang Song arrived at the Shu Palace.
Not only did he come, but he also knew why Liu Zhang asked him to come. He was somewhat secretly happy that Yizhou was finally going to be merged into the Han Dynasty.
In fact, Zhang Song was not all utilitarian, and certainly not seeking glory. He persuaded Liu Zhang to join the Han Dynasty just to get a meritorious service. At most, he could be made a prince, and what else could he do?
But in Yizhou, he was one person below others and above ten thousand people.
But the problem is that Zhang Song knows that Liu Zhang cannot defend the country. If he insists on fighting, it is better not to fight. Even if he avoids the destruction of all living beings, he can still save one life.
This is what Zhang Song thinks. It is not loyal, but at least it has some truth.
Now, the Han Dynasty has taken the initiative to show their kindness, which is a good start. Zhang Song is already very confident that he can persuade Liu Zhang.
Thinking about it, Zhang Song's footsteps became more and more brisk.
"Your Majesty." Soon after, Zhang Song arrived at the side hall. After entering, he immediately saluted Liu Zhang on the throne.
"No gift."
When Liu Zhang saw Zhang Song, he was immediately shocked and raised his hand. Then, Liu Zhang said: "Yongnian must have known that Liu Feng sent an envoy here. I don't know why Yongnian thought that Liu Feng sent an envoy here."
meaning?"[
"I am guessing that it is not the Crown Prince's intention, but the Emperor's intention." Zhang Song smiled slightly and said.
"Oh, why is this?" Liu Zhang was surprised when he heard this and asked.
"The crown prince acts domineeringly, but today, he has occupied four-tenths of the empire, and his military strength is growing day by day." At this point, Zhang Song took a deep breath, and then said: "I am not destroying my own prestige, but increasing the crown prince's prestige.
. But the reality is that in the eyes of the crown prince, Yizhou is like a bidder and is vulnerable. In this way, the crown prince will naturally disdain to send envoys. "
