Su Changqing fell silent immediately, and then raised his head after a long time.
"Chen Song still has hundreds of years of foundation. Even though he lost 500,000 troops, his national strength is still there. Moreover, the country is densely populated. It won't be long before these troops and horses will be replenished..."
"Wait!" Zhao Rui suddenly interrupted: "Master Su, please listen clearly. I am asking why Chen and Song Dynasty were destroyed, not for you to analyze their national strength for me."
Su Changqing sighed: "As long as Chen Song's national power is strong enough, Nanchu will lose a tooth when he is destroyed."
Zhao Rui was slightly startled: "What do you mean by this?"
Su Changqing bowed respectfully: "Your Highness King Zhao, I have said enough today! Please also believe His Highness King Zhao that everything Su Changqing does will never be detrimental to Dashang."
Zhao Rui was in a daze. He had a premonition that what Su Changqing was going to do was definitely a big thing, even a big thing with the world as a chessboard.
Suddenly he seemed to understand something.
"Master Zhao, I would like to ask if you want to destroy Nanchu!"
Su Changqing chuckled: "Sure enough, in front of King Zhao, you can't say too much. If you say more, your thoughts will be seen."
"It's true!" Zhao Rui suddenly stood up: "If you want to destroy Chu with your own strength, I'm afraid I can't do it! Even with the current national power of Dashang, there is no guarantee that Nan Chu can be destroyed."
"Destroying a country does not necessarily have to rely on external force!" The smile on the corner of Su Changqing's mouth was inexplicably cruel: "It is not impossible to destroy it from the inside out!"
Zhao Rui's pupils were slightly dilated: "Mr. Su, can I know why this is? You have a deep grudge against the Nanchu royal family?"
There was an inexplicable softness in Su Changqing's eyes, and she looked out the window blankly.
"No! Just for the beauty of the morning dew!"
Zhao Rui was confused when he heard what Su Changqing meant, but seeing how serious he looked, it seemed that Nan Chu must be destroyed.
The so-called alliance with Southern Chu to carve up the Chen and Song dynasties seemed to a large extent to consume Southern Chu's national power.
"Mr. Su, there is one thing I still don't understand. It seems to me that this covenant will allocate more than half of the territory of Chen and Song Dynasty to Nanchu, and these are the richest places! Aren't you afraid that Nanchu's national power will not only be weak?
Loss, but enhancement?”
"No!" A hint of contempt appeared on Su Changqing's face: "Nanchu is not a big merchant, the system is different, and the laws are also different. If the big merchants annexed the land of Chen and Song Dynasties, maybe the people would welcome it! But Nanchu is different, it will only irritate
The civil revolution of Chen and Song Dynasties began."
Zhao Rui's heart suddenly stirred up a storm. Being able to say such words showed that Su Changqing knew the laws of Dashang and Nanchu very well.
"Speaking of which, the two prime ministers of Sir and me, Dashang, both came from Nanchu Academy. They can be regarded as brothers. I, Dashang, can give them high positions, and I can also give high positions to Sir!"
"Come to my great merchant, no matter what grudge you have against Nan Chu, when my great merchant's national power becomes strong, I will definitely help you destroy him. If you run around like this sir, you may not be able to destroy Nan Chu in the end.
!”
Su Changqing shook his head.
"I accept the kindness of King Zhao, but I have made it my lifelong ambition to destroy Chu, so there is no need for you to persuade me any more!"
"In addition to this covenant, the foreign minister hopes that His Highness will give you the reply that the merchants will not send troops, nor will they divide half of the land of Chen and Song Dynasties, nor will they use troops when Southern Chu uses troops."
Zhao Rui exhaled slightly, then took out the royal seal and stamped the covenant.
"If one day, sir, you can come to me directly with this jade pendant if you need it."
Su Changqing took the covenant and bowed respectfully.
