Seeing that he couldn't get any advantage, Su Liu had no choice but to put aside the temptation and asked straight to the point: "Qi Yu, why don't you recruit Dahua's army?"
"Huh? You... know everything?" Qi Yu's eyes flashed when he heard this, and he was slightly surprised.
During the founding of the People's Republic of China, Qiongzhou has always maintained a low profile and will not mention it if possible.
Except for people like Hai Jia who often go overseas, others have few followers.
But this time it's different.
Qi Xiaotong officially visited Goryeo as the head of state of Great China. How could he hide the recent geographical location?
Su Liu could detect it, and it was indeed expected.
Qi Yu thought for a while and explained: "Dahua is a country with an independent political power. As a minister of Dafeng, how can I have the right to recruit the army there? What you said just now is biased and is not factually true."
"Oh? Really?" Su Liu looked unbelieving and said, "Xiaotong is your daughter. What is the difference between the country she governs as regent and your own jurisdiction? As the saying goes, one family does not speak the same language as the other.
, with such a relationship, how can we distinguish each other?"
"That's wrong!" Qi Yu immediately denied it, and then said sternly: "What Dahua implements is a term-of-term election system. As soon as the term is up, Xiaotong will abdicate in favor of a worthy person. It is absolutely impossible for the hegemonic position to not step down. Such a system
Come on, how can you say that Dahua belongs to my Qi family?"
Su Liu asked in confusion: "If this is the case, what is her purpose in building this country?"
Qi Yu replied: "To tell you the truth, although Dahua is not my Qi family's private property, it can be regarded as a retreat. A cunning rabbit has three holes, let alone a human being? Suppose one day, you suddenly make a move on me
Because of bad intentions, and I happen to be willing to retreat from the rapids, this place is an excellent place to retire."
These words were explicit and straightforward.
Su Liu couldn't help but not believe it.
Yes, he even made his retreat clear, so what else is there to doubt?
She thought for a while and sighed: "I really don't understand why you are so keen on changing the system? With a high-ranking official and a generous salary, what else is there to be dissatisfied about?"
Qi Yu replied without thinking: "The reason is very simple. I don't want my descendants to be slaves for generations to come. They should live more like individuals. Even if I don't think about myself, I still have to pave a good way for the future of my descendants, right?"
Otherwise, what’s the point of me coming to this world?”
"What's wrong with the imperial power? You have to think about overthrowing it!"
"In my opinion, it's not good anywhere!"
you……
Forget it, we have different positions, let’s keep our opinions separate!
Su Liu bowed slightly and made a conciliatory gesture to save face.
Then, she went back to the original topic and said: "Since you have no troops to mobilize, the imperial court should indeed stand up to defend against enemies. I agree to what you said. However, you must ensure that you can bring the emperor to the enemy.
Rescue him."
Qi Yu seemed displeased and said: "I have said before that this matter has a lot of luck involved, how can you be so aggressive?"
Su Liu smiled and said: "Don't worry, just listen to what I have to say. If you rescue the emperor, I will try to get you to join the cabinet. At that time, you can realize your position as the supreme leader."
It’s my dream.”
Qi Yu's eyes flashed and he asked: "Is this true?"
Su Liu replied seriously: "Take it seriously! Absolutely take it seriously!"
"That's very good!" Qi Yu first agreed, and then took the opportunity to put forward conditions: "If I join the cabinet, the court must delegate power to me, otherwise, the significance of eliminating evils and reforming will be lost."
This sentence is the most critical core.
However, Su Liu readily agreed without even thinking about it.
Let’s talk about the future in the future. Focus on the present first.
You know, the power to regret is in your own hands. If that's the case, then what is there to worry about?
Seeing that she agreed happily, Qi Yu followed suit and said, "Since you don't have any objections, how about making a public statement in the court after you get back?"
"Public opinion?"
"That's right! I don't need a formal document from you, just a statement similar to an initiative."
What does this mean?
In short, he punctured the window paper.
As long as you put this matter out in the open, it will be impossible to take it back later.
Want to regret it?
That's okay, but you have to pay the price of breaking trust. This is undoubtedly an effective harm to the royal authority that sticks to its word.
However, Qi Yu did not need to pay any price for this, which was obviously unilaterally targeted.
However, it seems so logical.
Not surprisingly, this matter really stumped Su Liu.
If you really do this, it will be equivalent to putting a moral shackles on the royal family. When you come here, you will be affected by the public opinion on this matter.
Refuse? Don’t dare!
Accepting it doesn't seem to work.
Just when he was in a dilemma, Su Liu suddenly felt a flash of inspiration in his mind, and seemed to have thought of something.
Then, she smiled and replied: "It's about my son's life, and I can make concessions on anything. I agree to this."
Qi Yu smiled happily and said: "It's so refreshing! Come on, come on, I'll toast you."
"You please too!"
"..."
Next, the two of them began to have a casual exchange of drinks. The topics they talked about became more and more abundant as the conversation progressed.
During the dinner, Su Liu also gave some explanations for the previous rumors of alliance.
According to her, the news of Qi Dalang's affair with Goryeo had indeed caused quite a heated discussion in the court.
Some people even took the opportunity to spread rumors that Qi Yu had rebelled, especially the unpopular princes, who all stood up and condemned him.
However, Yin Jun firmly believed that his old friend was carrying out some kind of unknown plan, so others should not be overly suspicious.
As for Su Liu, he also did not believe this theory.
In her understanding, Qi Yu is a person who always talks about the people, and he can really do practical things. For example, he helped the world during the locust plague in Huguang.
With such a generous temperament, how could he possibly collaborate with the enemy?
He has even unified the entire Nanyang, so will he still be afraid of a small country like Goryeo?
Logically, it doesn't work!
Therefore, she chose to ignore it.
I neither point out famous sayings nor follow the trend. In short, I just pretend that I have never heard of it.
This approach is very clever.
If no one drives the trend, there will be no so-called popularity. Over time, it will gradually fade out of people's conversation.
Just when the two of them were chatting in a lively manner, new military information suddenly arrived.
Intelligence said that Da Feng's companion Ying Tianfu was suddenly attacked by unknown armed forces and suffered heavy damage.
