Zhang Fang's face became solemn when he heard this and he promised.
Since they had decided to sit firmly on Diaoyutai, Zhang Yan, Zhang Fang and his son did not express much enthusiasm or politeness.
Instead, he stayed in the hall, quietly waiting for Sima Lang to arrive.
"Da da da."[
Not long after, Sima Lang walked in amid a burst of footsteps.
"Sima Lang, the emperor's minister, pays homage to General Zhang." After Sima Lang entered the hall, he first looked up at Zhang Yan and his son openly, and then saluted appropriately.
Not arrogant and domineering, but also not too humble, just right.
"Mr. Sima, you are polite." Zhang Yan raised his hands and returned the salute. Zhang Fang, who was standing beside him, also raised his fists in salute.
After returning the gift, Zhang Yan invited Sima Lang to sit down. Then, she said: "Although King Wei is the emperor, I am a bandit, and I seem to be at odds with the emperor. What is the purpose of the emperor sending you here?"
Zhang Yan came from a humble background, and she didn't feel ashamed even though she called herself a bandit. Instead, she was generous and generous. This is admirable.
How many people want to put gold on their faces, but Zhang Yan is obviously not that kind of person.
Sima Lang also had admiration for Zhang Yan in his heart. With a smile on his face, he said: "The world is in chaos today, and those who are capable are heroes. A general with millions of people and a hundred thousand armor can be called a hero.
.The general is a hero, but calling himself a bandit is too modest."
"Humph, the words are nice. But as the saying goes, if you listen to sweet words, you will lose something. Don't say more unnecessary words. Sir, you should just tell the truth."
Although these words sounded nice and Zhang Yan felt comfortable listening to them, Zhang Yan was calm and knew that she could not lose her authority at this moment, so she snorted coldly and said.
"Wait a minute." Hearing this, Sima Lang raised his hand slightly and made a "wait a minute" gesture. Then, he took a deep breath, and under the gazes of Zhang Yan, Zhang Fang and his son, he opened his mouth and asked, "I don't know.
General, how do you view the situation in the world?"
"The two heroes are competing, and it's hard to decide the outcome for a while." Zhang Yan said succinctly.
"Of course." Sima Lang smiled and nodded when he heard this. But then he added: "The Four Kingdoms and the Han Dynasty are in balance. If there is an external force involved, the balance will be broken. The external force is the general. If the general
If the general can help the four countries, the Han Dynasty will be destroyed. But if the general helps the Han Dynasty, the four countries will be in trouble. I don’t know what I am saying, is that correct?"
Sima Lang was trying to promote Zhang Yan, which was not in line with the principles of negotiation and lobbying. It seemed to be too much of a loss of prestige. Zhang Yan was a little confused, so after pondering for a moment, Zhang Yan said: "Yes."
However, Sima Lang did not feel that his own prestige had been compromised, because the conditions he offered were astonishing and Zhang Yan was not allowed to refuse.
"In this case, people in the Ming Dynasty will not speak secretly." Sima Lang opened his mouth and became more confident. Then he paused and said: "The royal way of the Han Dynasty cannot tolerate others. And what the four countries want is just to be unified.
Duke Huan is just the hegemon. He unites the princes and divides the world. If the Han Dynasty wins, the general will be at most ten thousand households and humble ministers. But if the four kingdoms win, the general will be more powerful and powerful."
At the end of the sentence, Sima Lang looked up at Zhang Yan, feeling overly confident.
After Zhang Yan, Zhang Fang and his son heard this, their eyes suddenly shone with light. Zhang Yan was okay, and Zhang Fang was already extremely excited.
"Sir, what do you mean by this?" Zhang Yan took a deep breath, suppressed the excitement in her heart, and asked.[
"If the general is willing to help the four countries, the emperor is willing to confer the general the title of Marquis of Han, and lead the three counties of Dangdang, Hanoi, and Hedong to establish Korea."
Sima Lang said shockingly.
Looking at the expressions of Zhang Yan and his son, Sima Lang had almost concluded in his heart that Zhang Yan couldn't resist this temptation.
In other words, Zhang Yan is about to send troops.
If Zhang Yan sends troops, the Han Dynasty will go. If he has the opportunity, he can personally take Liu Feng's head, remove the brains, skin and flesh, and use his head to make a wine cup.
Thinking about it, Sima Lang's murderous intention suddenly arose in his heart, which was earth-shattering.
