Pingzhou government office

The waiter led him to the door of the meeting hall.

The waiter at the door loudly called out: "Sima Jiang Boya from Lingnan is here!"

Those present in the meeting hall at this time were all high-level officials from Pingzhou.

The Fuyu tribe has all returned to Pingzhou. Qin Heng, Guo Chong and Qin Sheng have all returned. Qin Yan is in charge of the army stationed in Fuyu.They are here now.

Hearing that Xie Zhan had sent an envoy, even Lu Desheng made a rare appearance in the meeting hall.

Jiang Boya walked into the meeting hall step by step, and many things flashed by.

Pingzhou government office should be newly built, and the meeting hall is very large, comparable to some grand halls.

Because the windows are all made of glass produced in Pingzhou, the meeting hall is very bright.

There are tables on both sides of the meeting hall, and each table is equipped with a chair.These tables and chairs are higher than ordinary ones, and the senior officials in Pingzhou sit with their feet upright, not in a cross-legged position.

An idea flashed through Jiang Boya's mind. Pingzhou was close to the Hulu. It was probably due to the influence of the Hulu that even the sitting posture changed.

Jiang Boya didn't know that there were fire cages under these tables. Even if the adults in Pingzhou sat at work for a long time, they would not feel cold.

Ever since Jiang Boya stepped into the meeting hall, everyone's eyes have fallen on him.

When he saw these tables and stools and their sitting postures, everyone naturally noticed the flash of strange color.

Everyone hummed in their hearts, what does this guy know?The winter in Beiping Prefecture is so cold. Whoever sits on these tables and chairs knows how comfortable they are.

Fortunately, the governor is not someone who cares about red tape and is willing to consider his subordinates.

Lu Songli couldn't help it. It was cold in Pingzhou, and among the people below her, there were quite a few old men like her father. They were all treasures, so she had to take care of them.

In fact, in Lu Songli's view, those who are in their forties will be called Zhongqing in future generations, and they are still young adults.But now, people in the world regard people in their 40s as old people.

At this time, Jiang Boya was focused on the woman above him. He knew that this was the famous Lu Songli. He saw her wearing a vermilion formal suit, her eyebrows were calm, and she had a temperament that could not be ignored.

Jiang Boya stepped forward and saluted, "Sima Jiang Boya of Lingnan met with Governor Lu of Pingzhou."

"Jiang Sima doesn't need to be polite." Lu Songli knew that Jiang Boya was Xie Zhan's current number one adviser, and Xie Zhan worshiped him as Sima.

Sima had no specific duties and was not involved in actual affairs. He mainly assisted the governor.

After Jiang Boya stood up, Lu Songli asked, "Jiang Sima traveled thousands of miles from the south to Pingzhou. I don't know why he came here?"

Although the people present had some guesses about his purpose, they still had to ask.

Jiang Boya was first surprised by Lu Songli's directness, but he quickly calmed down and said, "I came here to form an alliance. Our Lord Xie Zhanxie, the governor of Lingnan, wants to form an alliance with Pingzhou, but I don't know what Governor Lu wants to do." ?”

The whole place was silent.

Everyone present: ...

Who doesn't know that their governor and Xie Zhan were once an unmarried couple?Now the ex-fiancé has sent someone to seek an alliance, which seems awkward.

When Qin Sheng heard this, his eyes widened, but in his heart he greeted the eighteenth generation of his ancestors named Xie Zhan.

Lu Desheng picked his ears, suspecting that he was old and had heard something wrong.

He turned slightly sideways and asked his son-in-law in a low voice, "A Sheng, what did this man named Jiang say just now?"

Qin Sheng wanted to know his wife's reaction now, but when his father-in-law asked, he had to reply, "He said that Xie Zhan wants to form an alliance with us."

Lu Desheng: "In other words, did I hear correctly just now?"

"Yes, you heard that right." After saying that, Qin Sheng ignored his old father-in-law and looked at the host attentively.

Lu Songli was not surprised, this seemed like Xie Zhan's behavior.

Lu Songli didn't say anything. The whole scene was a bit weird, so Jiang Boya had to speak out, "Governor Lu is now the head of a state. I'm sure he won't still be brooding over the past affair between his children, right?"

"There is no personal relationship between Xie Zhan and I, only grudges and hatred." After Lu Songli said this, he continued, "Jiang Sima does not need to use aggressive methods against me. As for whether to cooperate with Nandi, I have many talents in Pingzhou. , I will consider it carefully. At the same time, my decision will not be mixed with personal grudges."

"Governor Lu is an extraordinary person." Jiang Boya praised.

Qin Sheng couldn't help it anymore and was the first to attack, "Why did our Pingzhou form an alliance with your southern land?"

Jiang Boya turned to Qin Sheng and said, "General Qin's words are wrong. An alliance between the two sides will not only be beneficial to us in the south, but also beneficial to Pingzhou."

"Among the five forces in Dali, three are surnamed Song, and only Pingzhou and Nandi have foreign surnames. Now the three parties surnamed Song have joined together. If Nandi and Pingzhou do not form an alliance, they will inevitably be defeated by them individually."

"After forming an alliance, Southern and Pingzhou can lean on each other and help each other."

Qin Sheng pointed out, "After forming an alliance between the South and our Pingzhou, one in the south and one in the north, I only see benefits to you. Now the crisis in the South is imminent."

Qin Sheng was referring to the fact that King Cheng and King Cheng of Jin had accepted Song Mo's imperial edict. Currently, the two kings had taken over the territory assigned to them by Song Mo, and Lin Ran and Xu Junfan, as imperial envoys, were already urging the two kings to send troops to join forces. Attack Xie Zhan.

"If we, Pingzhou, agree to form an alliance, we will immediately get burned. But I don't see any benefit to Pingzhou from forming an alliance. Even if we, Pingzhou, are in trouble, your southern land is so far away, and the distant water cannot save the nearby fire."

Qin Sheng analyzed military issues very clearly.

Lu Desheng agreed, "Yes."

Jiang Boya retorted, "Southland and Pingzhou are fighting alone. It is true that Southland is in a difficult situation and is in danger of destruction, but what about Pingzhou?"

"The crisis in Pingzhou has always existed, and it does not depend on whether it is in alliance with Nandi or not. After the three Song brothers have solved Nandi, they should turn around and deal with Pingzhou."

"Today's Nandi will be Pingzhou's tomorrow. So I say that if Nandi and Pingzhou are united, both sides will benefit, and if they divide, they will suffer two harms."

Qin Sheng: "It is true that the crisis in Pingzhou has always existed, but there are also priorities."

Lu Desheng glanced at his son-in-law several times. Unexpectedly, this guy was also very sharp-tongued.

Jiang Boya turned to Lu Songli, "Governor Lu, Pingzhou will certainly be able to sleep peacefully overnight without forming an alliance, but compared with life and death, you should be very clear about what is more important."

Lu Songli said at this time, "Cooperation is not impossible. What conditions is Xie Zhan willing to give to cooperate with us in Pingzhou?"
