Dressed as the cannon fodder who died prematurely, I will marry the villain in anger
Chapter 594 Asking the Emperor for Instructions
"Governor, do you think Xie Zhan will agree to give Zhuozhou to us as Pingzhou?" Xue Xu asked reluctantly.
"No." Lu Songli's answer was clean and crisp.
Xie Zhan should be able to sense their true intention of Pingzhou to attack the East China Sea. Knowing this, how could he be willing to make additional concessions.
Moreover, after Xie Zhan returned to the court, he had a mother-in-law on his head and could not make full decisions.
Xie Zhan wanted to use the suppression of the southern rebellion as political capital for his return to court. They, Pingzhou, were able to take advantage of this and put forward conditions for him to mediate in front of the emperor.
"Once the conditions we raise exceed the bottom line that they can bear, the Emperor of Li will definitely not agree."
The cession of Zhuozhou would have touched Song Mo's bottom line.
Song Mo is quite crazy.
Even though Zhuozhou was replaced by the land of the East China Sea, to Song Mo, if it was cut off, it was cut off. The cession of Zhuozhou meant that he recognized that the imperial court was inferior to Pingzhou, which was more uncomfortable than killing him.
Therefore, the conditions for ceding Zhuozhou were smoke bombs from the beginning, used to confuse Song Mo and Xie Zhan.
Xue Xu also understood.
Let's go back to the East China Sea.
This negotiation was conducted in the presence of more than 200,000 soldiers.
Pingzhou was willing to use the land of the two counties acquired in the East China Sea in exchange for people of all walks of life detained by the Dali court officials.
Of all the people, the one who was most deeply touched was the Sun family army led by Sun Congyi.
Since their Sun family army secretly surrendered to Pingzhou, Sun Congyi and others were most worried about their family members far away in Chang'an.
A few days ago, he received a letter from his father, saying that most of the family members had left Chang'an under Pingzhou's arrangements, but his grandmother and other older generations chose to stay in Chang'an in order to allow the younger generation.
Sun Congyi knew that his grandmother and others would be the hardest to save.
He did not expect that in order to save his grandmother and others, the governor was willing to offer two counties in exchange for the Dali court.
Sun Congyi secretly thought, today Pingzhou sacrificed two counties for them, in the future they will open up territory for Pingzhou and build more cities for Pingzhou!
After the results of the negotiations came out, Xie Zhan expressed his intention to write a letter to ask the emperor for instructions. This process takes several days.
Qin Zhao and others all understood.
As a result, the three parties at the negotiation site dispersed and returned to their own camps.
However, the army did not disperse and still maintained its appearance of being ready to fight at any time.
King Jin couldn't understand why Pingzhou was willing to exchange the land of these two counties for those who were uncertain.
Bai Xingzhi did not answer the Jin King's doubts out loud.
It should be said that Qin Zhao has been silent since he told Pingzhou's conditions.
For talents, it has always been to learn literary and martial arts, and to have goods and the emperor's family. He never thought that the emperor would make concessions for them or even pay a big price.
When there is a conflict between personal interests and collective interests, someone will come to advise you to put the overall situation first, and it will always be the weak individuals who give in and feel aggrieved.
For example, this time, even if Pingzhou didn't save these people, no one would say anything.
But Pingzhou was saved, and he even gave up the land of the two counties he had obtained.
A scholar dies for a confidant.
He felt that Pingzhou and Lu Songli really deserved to have a future with advisers and generals as fierce as the rain.
On Xie Zhan's side, he has already prepared a draft in his mind and is ready to write the book.
"Dad Dudu, do you really want to agree to Pingzhou's conditions?" Jiang Boya asked hesitantly.
He visited Pingzhou before to form an alliance and found that Pingzhou was really full of talents. Then they let go of the talents they had retained through various means before, and Pingzhou really became even more powerful.
Xie Zhan: "This is the minimum price we need to pay to take over the East China Sea."
Doesn’t Xie Zhan know the importance of talents? What he knew, even if he didn’t understand it before, he understood it now.
Jiang Boya was discouraged. Pingzhou was not easy to deal with. If he did not agree to their conditions, it would not be easy to get the land of the two counties from them.
Xie Zhan added, "Pingzhou's move is equivalent to killing me and the emperor's army."
The counter-insurgency war has been ongoing until now. The soldiers are very tired and their hearts are at ease. Pingzhou is willing to exchange the land of the two counties for talents instead of choosing to go to war, which is a good thing for the soldiers.
If he and the emperor insist on going their own way and insist on taking back the two counties by force, and if there are too many casualties later, if someone provokes them, the soldiers will surely feel resentful.
After comprehensive consideration, Xie Zhan decided to agree to Pingzhou's conditions.
Once the East China Sea was leveled, his achievements were enough to make him proud of the court.
"Will the Emperor agree?"
"The Emperor will do so."
Xie Zhan was still confident in persuading Song Mo to release him and facilitate this negotiation.
Song Mo didn't pay much attention to talents. He always felt that Dali was a land of great resources and talented people, and talents were like leeks, growing one after another.
Secondly, he could not resist the temptation to put down the entire rebellion south of the Central Plains in one fell swoop without paying any price.
In addition, once the war in the East China Sea is over, the troops deployed in the East China Sea can also be transferred to the north to defend Xianbei.
There are many benefits.
After the book was written, Xie Zhan ordered it to be sent to Chang'an at an accelerated speed of 800 miles.
So in the next few days, Xie Zhan, King Jin, Qin Zhao and others did not leave or withdraw their troops. Everyone defended on the spot and watched out for each other.
Song Mo was very angry when he received his message.
He was angry that Sun Jiajun secretly defected to Pingzhou! We are preparing to punish these old immortals, Mrs. Sun!
Xie Zhan’s discount is here.
Song Mo only took in Xie Zhan's story after Liang An repeatedly comforted him.
Xie Zhan persuaded him in the book that these people were in Cao's camp and their hearts were with the Han, and they were detained in Dali, so they were always a hidden danger. Because it is impossible to restrict the movements of these people for the rest of their lives.
If Pingzhou hadn't exchanged land for people, the imperial court could have slowly changed their minds with the help of water mill.
Mrs. Sun and others are indeed hateful, but they are all old and dying people.
Of course the emperor could kill them, but killing them would not only vent the anger in his heart, but would also cost the land of two counties, and would easily lead to a reputation for violence, which was not cost-effective.
Xie Zhan tried to persuade people from these aspects.
If the emperor feels that he really can't swallow this breath, Weichen has a plan...
Xie Zhan suggested that the emperor should grant amnesty to the whole country in the name of quelling the rebellion in the south, and even reduce or reduce some taxes appropriately in order to stabilize the southern land.
Xie Zhan believed that there must be some wavering people among these people, and the court could win over these people.
Therefore, in order to win over these talents, it can also be regarded as adding obstacles to Pingzhou and destroying Pingzhou's plan to win over people.
Song Mo read the document three times and reluctantly agreed.
