Along the way, Yang Xuan thought about many possibilities of the true purpose of the mission.
But they are all related to Beiliao.
"Your Majesty is preparing to attack Southern Zhou Dynasty."
This sentence immediately confused Yang Xuan.
Why?
It was hateful to support the rebellion in southern Xinjiang before the Southern Zhou Dynasty, but the Tang Dynasty also did this kind of thing in the Southern Zhou Dynasty, so it was just a back and forth between you and me.
Moreover, the Southern Zhou Dynasty's support for the rebels has gradually decreased recently, and the momentum of rebellion in southern Xinjiang has also been suppressed, and the situation is improving.
But at this time, the false emperor actually wanted to attack Southern Zhou Dynasty.
Is the concubine in the pear garden no longer fragrant?
Or is it that the prince has become a hand that prevents him from finding anyone to humiliate, so that he cannot find a goal in life...
What on earth is he planning?
"Why?" Yang Xuan asked.
"I don't know either." Liang Jing said sincerely: "If the Tang Dynasty wants to attack the Southern Zhou Dynasty, it must first discuss with the Northern Liao Dynasty. Otherwise, if troops are sent over there and troops are sent here, why fight?"
The Tang Dynasty sent troops to the Southern Zhou Dynasty, and the Southern Zhou Dynasty called for help, and the Northern Liao Dynasty immediately sent troops to the northern Xinjiang...
Can you come back?
Datang could only withdraw its troops.
The existence of the Southern Zhou Dynasty can effectively contain the Tang Dynasty. All the emperors of the Liao Dynasty have seen this very clearly, and it is impossible for them to indulge the Tang Dynasty and destroy the Southern Zhou Dynasty.
So Yang Xuan felt that this matter was a bit nonsense.
"It's impossible for Beiliao to just sit back and watch." Yang Xuan felt that this was a stupid decision.
Liang Jing said: "The country will never be destroyed."
"What is the Immortal Kingdom fighting for?"
Could it be that the false emperor has Alzheimer's disease?
"discipline."
"discipline?"
"right."
"Why punish?"
"I don't know either."
"You don't know this or that, so what's the point?"
Yang Xuan was so angry that he wanted to explode, "The envoy must know the whole story, otherwise how can he mediate? Who the hell came up with this idea? He deserves to be killed!"
"His Majesty."
…
"Pretend I didn't say it."
Yang Xuan felt that the false emperor was crazy.
"His Majesty's order is to take the ten cities of the Southern and Southern Dynasties as punishment. After the city is broken, the benefits will be divided into half of the Northern Liao. After the war, the troops will be withdrawn."
"It's difficult." Yang Xuan said bluntly: "How can Bei Liao believe what the Tang Dynasty says? What if the Tang Dynasty is unstoppable? When the Southern Zhou Dynasty is destroyed, can the Bei Liao Dynasty resurrect a country?"
"So, this is why I came here."
"Damn it, it has nothing to do with me!" Yang Xuan was angry.
"Zitai, you're already here. It's too late to say it's irrelevant."
Yang Xuan turned around and said calmly: "Believe it or not, I can make it impossible for you to go back."
He was really angry.
Now he is the governor of a state, holding Chenzhou's army in his hands. There is also a group of troops on the grassland, walking around under the banner of the southern part of the town, and he can pretend to be a horse thief and kill people at any time.
Intercepting and killing the mission and passing the blame on some ignorant tribe, who the hell dares to blame Yang Xuan?
Everyone in Chen Zhoujun is at his or her own position!
Liang Jing sighed, stood up and raised his hands, "It's my fault."
He did not put the blame on Wang Deng and was very responsible.
"All you need to know about this matter is... Southern Zhou has humiliated His Majesty!"
"grass!"
Yang Xuan couldn't help but be startled.
Liang Jing laughed and said: "When I heard it, this was the same word that came out of my mouth. Damn it! How dare they! But they did it."
"I won't ask how you humiliated him." Yang Xuan felt that the false emperor would send troops to punish him, and the humiliation probably hit his shortcomings.
Disadvantages...
Yang Xuan couldn't help but look down.
Liang Jing's eyes moved slightly, "What are you looking at?"
"Strengths!"
"Wang Deng is a veteran and knows the reality of Bei Liao. He is going to argue with Bei Liao on this trip, but at present, it is useless."
"He Lianfeng sent the crown prince and the third prince to receive us. Who should we discuss this matter with?"
"Wang Deng means, and Prince Heliandan."
"Then you try it!"
"Where's you?"
"I'll catch up on some sleep."
The prince and the third prince arrived very quickly.
After the two sides exchanged pleasantries, Wang Deng made a vague request.
"Twenty cities, retreat after destroying them."
Heliandan never expected that the envoy came with this purpose, and subconsciously said: "The Southern Zhou Dynasty is the country of the brothers of Daliao, so you must not do it!"
He Lianxun said curiously: "Why are we attacking Southern Zhou?"
That's a good question, young man!
Wang Deng was just trying to find an excuse to talk about this matter. Hearing this, he sighed: "Southern Zhou Dynasty... is disrespectful to His Majesty."
Heliandan glanced at the third prince and said, "It's hot inside, go out and walk around."
This is because he dislikes He Lianxun for being ignorant.
He Lianxun said with a smile: "I'm not afraid of the heat."
Heliandan said lightly: "That's fine."
Looking back, he said: "There is no need to report this matter to Aye. I tell you, you must not!"
He stood up and said, "Your envoy can visit Ningxing for a while and then go back. There will be a banquet in the palace."
No matter how fierce the fight between the two countries is, their respective dignity must still be preserved.
Wang Deng stood up and said, "Datang is willing to send protons."
The prince was startled and said calmly: "This matter... I will report it to Aye."
The third prince asked curiously: "What kind of hatred is this that makes the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty willing to send protons?"
Sending protons means being willing to lose. For example, the Southern Zhou Dynasty sent protons to Chang'an.
Wang Deng smiled. "It's hard to talk about this."
The prince said calmly: "You shouldn't ask, don't ask."
Liang Jing's eyes moved slightly, and after he went out, he said, "There seems to be some conflict between these two brothers."
Wang Deng shook his head, "It's useless, He Lianfeng still has to make a decision on this matter."
This contradiction cannot be exploited.
After He Lianfeng got the news, he couldn't help but laugh.
The prince looked at him and smiled.
"Aye, be careful with your health." He Lianxun reminded.
He Lianfeng gasped, "Hey! How did Nian Xu humiliate Li Mi so that the old dog was willing to send a proton? It's funny to think about it."
The prince said: "Aye, it's hard to agree to this matter."
"I know." He Lianfeng said calmly.
The prince is a bit shameless.
The third prince said: "Aye, what if the Tang Dynasty attacks without waiting for our consent?"
He Lianfeng's eyes became gentler, "If this is the case, we will attack with a large army."
"This is a chain button!" He Lianxun suddenly realized.
"Sanlang is smart."
In the afternoon of that day, officials went to inform Wang Deng.
"Your Majesty has said this, no!"
Wang Deng came back and said in frustration: "I can't tell you this."
Liang Jing's face was livid, "Even if it is difficult, it must be done."
The emperor sent him here this time with the intention of gilding, but also with the intention of teaching. If this trip fails, how will he ascend to the throne?
——You can’t even do this well, how can you compete with the old foxes in the dynasty?
Liang Jing turned his eyes and said, "Old Wang."
Wang Deng thought hard and finally shook his head, "Unless we discuss it directly with He Lianfeng and convince him."
"Is there no other way?" Liang Jing was a little anxious.
Wang Deng thought about it again and said, "No more."
"inability!"
Liang Jing finally couldn't bear it anymore.
Wang Deng's old face was dull.
Liang Jing slapped the table and said, "That's all, I'm going to find Zitai."
After Liang Jing left, Wang Deng's confidants came to complain, "This matter is impossible in the first place. If the minister can't do it, how can Yang Xuan change the world? Mr. Liang scolded the minister for this, but he went overboard."
Wang Deng said calmly: "This trip is inherently uncertain. Otherwise, it would not be my turn to be the envoy. Do you understand?"
"Then Doctor Liang, isn't it in vain?"
"Your Majesty just wants to see what he can do. If it works, it will be of great use. If it doesn't work, let's see what he can do."
"No wonder Mr. Liang is so eager. He just frustrated the Minister."
"I'm not aggrieved." Wang Deng smiled.
"I am here to take the blame. If this trip fails, I am the culprit. I am a disgraced official."
"Why!"
"Why are you sighing?"
"The waiter is really frustrated."
"I'm taking the blame, so your Majesty must remember my favor, otherwise who will be willing to take the blame for Mr. Liang in the future?"
"But the minister is about to retire, and this... it's almost impossible to guarantee the end of the year."
"I'm going to teach you to be a good boy. Doesn't it matter if you lose face?"
"important."
"When you are in officialdom, you must have face. But I am about to retire, is it possible to take my face back to my hometown and take it to my coffin? Hey! At this age, I have to change everything I can!"
Wang Deng pointed outside, "Mr. Liang went to look for Yang Xuan, and the pot flew over. I don't know whether to cry or laugh." Gu Ji said.
…
"Zitai, this is troublesome."
Yang Xuan was taking a nap and said impatiently: "If it's troublesome, just troublesome!"
"Zitai save me!"
Yang Xuan opened his eyes and saw that Liang Jing couldn't stand up, so he moved his buttocks to the other side and continued to take a nap.
"Zitai!"
Liang Jing said: "When you and the empress were so destined..."
"These words will cause great disaster." Yang Xuan said quietly.
The emperor would feel like he was wearing a cuckold.
Liang Jing shouted: "If it doesn't work this time, I will be in big trouble!"
"hehe!"
Yang Xuan sneered.
Liang Jing sighed, "My wife is living a good life in the palace, but...Zitai, my wife has no heirs. Once...you know, my wife will have no choice but to become a monk. The only way to avoid it is for me to become a minister."
When the emperor died, all the childless concubines had to leave home.
Prevent these women from hating the emperor.
Liang Jing was able to say these words sincerely.
but.
It has nothing to do with me!
Yang Xuan thought very clearly.
The concubine brother and sister have no future.
Liang Jing himself knew this very well. After becoming the queen's enemies, the brother and sister had only one way to go...to become the emperor's thugs.
As long as the emperor is here, their wealth will be there.
Without the emperor, those people's counterattack will leave their brothers and sisters without a place to die.
"Gold-plated?"
"That's right."
"You're going to be in trouble."
"Can you just watch?"
"Why not?"
Liang Jing knew that this guy didn't want to get involved with his siblings.
"What do you want?"
"Serve His Majesty."
"hehe!"
Yang Xuan looked at him, his expression gradually becoming cold.
"What does this have to do with me?"
If Huang Chunhui hadn't brought him into the mission, Yang Xuan would have fallen out with Liang Jing right now.
He could come with him to make some soy sauce, which would be regarded as a ride to the emperor's uncle.
But if you want him to pull chestnuts out of the fire for Liang Jing and take the blame for him, I'm sorry.
"This is a pot."
Liang Jing nodded, "Brother, I know you are smart, but this matter..."
"Look for the king to ascend!"
Yang Xuan nodded and then closed his eyes.
We are just here to make fun of you, you continue to sing!
Sing!
In my ears, Suzaku played music.
"I stood on Wollongong...looking at the scenery."
Not to mention the music, it really fits the occasion.
Liang Jing's complexion changed slightly, and he wanted to rebel.
But what's the use of turning against one another?
Wang Deng said that Huang Chunhui had told him that if Yang Xuan was left here, they would not be able to return to Chang'an.
Huang Chunhui is the local emperor of Northern Xinjiang. Who dares not to believe his threats?
"Ahem!"
There was a dry cough outside the door.
Tu Shang said calmly: "I feel something bad."
Liang Jing took a deep breath, "Fifty thousand dollars!"
The eyelids moved and he crossed his arms.
"Seven hundred thousand!"
Tu Chang blinked his eyes.
He had been outside just now. After hearing Liang Jing's words, he felt that it was just an idea.
An idea of 500,000 yuan reminded Tu Shang of the stories told by his father and ancestors, about the role of those counselors in the founding of the Southern Zhou Dynasty.
But even for the best strategist, one idea is not worth half a million dollars, right?
But Boss Yang remained unmoved.
Seven hundred thousand!
I go!
Is this money, Te Niang's, just dirt?
Yang Xuan's breathing was very steady.
Tu Shang secretly praised, feeling that Lang Jun's demeanor of being unmoved in the face of great wealth should be learned from his father in the future.
Liang Jing was angry, "Eight hundred thousand!"
Yang Xuan snored softly.
Boss Yang slept soundly.
"One million!"
Tu Shang's hand holding the wooden stick was a little unsteady.
One million dollars?
"Yang Zitai!" Liang Jing was about to take action.
Yang Xuan opened his eyes, "Hey! It's Brother Liang! The second child, the second child."
"What!" Wang Laoer's voice came from behind, probably hiding something to eat.
"Let me bring some tea, hey! Look, this imperial concubine's brother! He doesn't even have a glass of water."
One million dollars can raise an army!
"Brother Liang, sit down!"
Yang Xuan smiled.
Wang Laoer came with his men. Just as he was about to run away, Tu Shang grabbed him and the two of them came to the side.
"Second brother!"
"What are you doing?"
Wang Laoer didn't know what he was going to do when he went back, he was in a hurry.
"You must learn from the husband's methods."
"What to study?"
"Thick-skinned."
Tu Chang witnessed the whole process of how Yang Xuan dealt with Liang Jing.
Among the powerful and powerful Mr. Liang in Chang'an, he was like a monkey jumping up and down in front of Mr. Lang.
Lang Jun just took a nap before letting Liang Jing show his trump card.
One million dollars!
Is it worth it?
Worth it for small groups!
It's worth it for Liang Jing.
Money, as long as he can achieve success, millions of dollars is nothing.
"What did Mr. Lang say... double what?"
"Win-win."
"Second brother, you have to learn this."
"I'm learning."
"Are you studying?"
Tu Shang was greatly relieved.
"Yes! I eat dried meat to fill my stomach, and then I poop to enrich the ground. Isn't this a win-win situation?"
Tu Shang: "..."
…
"What method?" Liang Jing felt that he had been blackmailed for a million dollars, and looked unhappy.
Yang Xuan was sure that this guy was thinking about how to take revenge on him if he failed... He said calmly: "It's impossible to go to He Lianfeng for this matter, right?"
Liang Jing nodded.
wooden club!
Before Yang Xuan went to the Southern Zhou Dynasty as an envoy, he read some books on diplomatic strategies and tactics from another world, which were very rich in content.
"The first thing you should do on a mission is to adapt!"
The most necessary tool for diplomacy is flexibility.
Liang Jing frowned, "You mean..."
"Even if He Lianfeng agrees to this matter, can he make the decision alone?"
Liang Jing shook his head, "Such matters must be decided by the court."
"Can I say you are a stick?" Yang Xuan felt that he had hinted to this point, and Liang Jing should understand.
But he is still cute.
Sure enough, Liang Jing is a good player when it comes to playing social games. He is also a good player when it comes to forming cliques and party disputes...
But due to diplomacy, Boss Yang was convinced that Liang Jing was not even qualified to carry his own shoes.
Liang Jing was stunned, then nodded, "I didn't want to admit it, but your method of sending envoys to the Southern Zhou Dynasty was regarded as a classic by the Ministry of Rites and Honglu Temple, and officials were ordered to learn from it. If you play this, my brother is just your student."
