The Invincible Sixth Prince

In the evening, Yun Zheng hosted a banquet in Wanshou Palace on behalf of Emperor Wen to entertain the Xiqu delegation.

Su Zan has witnessed how people change their attitude faster than turning the pages of a book.

After he gave enough benefits, Yun Zheng and the ministers of Daqian became enthusiastic. A group of people pulled them to drink and chat, and even called them brothers.

Su Zan cursed all the ancestors of this group of people in his heart, and took this opportunity to propose some ideas to Yun Zheng.

He hoped that Xiqu and Daqian could carry out comprehensive trade and cultural exchanges.

In addition, he also hoped that Yun Zheng would order the Xiqu rebels from Saga and Hun Gu to stop causing trouble for Xiqu.

Now the lands occupied by the rebels will be occupied by the rebels, and Xiqu will no longer carry out encirclement and suppression against the rebels, allowing the rebels to recuperate.

Although Su Zan himself knew that it was unlikely that Yun Zheng would agree, he still wanted to give it a try.

Even if Yun Zheng does not agree, at least Yun Zheng can see Xiqu's powerlessness, which will further paralyze Yun Zheng.

Yun Zheng thought for a moment and replied, "There is no problem with Saga. Saga suffered heavy losses last year, and they definitely don't want to fight again! But I really can't give orders to Hun Gu."

"No way?"

Su Zan's face was full of bitterness: "Your Majesty, I am sincere..."

"Listen to what the king has to say first."

Yun Zheng interrupted Su Zan, "In the beginning, I did help the rebels in Hun Valley, but I just wanted to cause trouble for you. The troops over there are not under my command..."

Yun Zheng also spoke to Su Zan "sincerely".

Whether Su Zan believed it or not, he believed it anyway.

"Is that so?"

Su Zan looked at Yun Zheng with doubt, and seeing that Yun Zheng refused to admit it, he stopped dwelling on the question and asked, "Excuse me, does the prince have any thoughts about Xi Luo?"

"Why do you ask?"

Yun Zheng looked at Su Zan warily.

"Don't worry, Your Majesty. I have no ill intentions."

Su Zan chuckled, "What I want to say is, if the prince has any ideas about Xiluo, if Xiqu surrenders, can the prince allow the royal family of Xiqu to move to Xiluo and grant us a piece of fertile land?"

"If that day ever comes, this will definitely be no problem!"

Yun Zheng smiled cheerfully, "Tomorrow you can talk to Lord Tang and the others about Xiqu's conditions for surrender. Feel free to mention them! As long as they are not too excessive, I believe that my father will satisfy Xiqu!"

Yun Zheng said this, but he was secretly confused in his heart.

Could it be that Su Zan wanted to divert the blame and ask them to fight the Xiuluo?

"Okay, listen to the prince!"

Su Zan said nothing more and continued to toast with Yun Zheng.

"If we reach a preliminary agreement later, I hope you can have a good talk with Chimpu as soon as possible."

Yun Zheng put down his wine glass and said, "The sooner you surrender, the more benefits you will get! Do you know why?"

"This one……"

Su Zan thought for a moment and shook his head gently: "I don't know."

Yun Zheng smiled and asked, "You should have heard about the attack of Yu State on Yuzhou, right?"

"Have heard a little bit."

Su Zan smiled: "I heard that the emperor even announced to the world that all future rulers of Daqian must take it as their responsibility to destroy the Yu Kingdom."

"Correct."

Yun Zheng nodded gently and lowered his voice: "To be disrespectful, Father doesn't have much time left! If he can see the destruction of Yu Country with his own eyes, he will have no regrets, do you understand?"

Listening to Yun Zheng's words, Su Zan suddenly understood.

Yun Zheng meant that if Xiqu surrendered earlier, Daqian could fully prepare for the war to destroy the Yu Kingdom.

Emperor Wen wanted to see the destruction of the Yu Kingdom, and Xiqu's early surrender was equivalent to helping him fulfill his wish, and Xiqu would certainly be able to gain more benefits.

Su Zan said solemnly: "I will definitely convey the prince's words to King Chinpu."

"it is good!"

Yun Zheng smiled and said, "Let's not talk about this anymore. Come, have a drink!"

Su Zan nodded and said no more.

……

The next day, Yun Zheng handed the Xiqu delegation to Tang Shu and his team.

What followed was a lot of hypocrisy, and he really didn't want to get involved.

Let Tang Shu and the others talk slowly with the Xiqu delegation!

Yun Zheng did not attend the court meeting. Early in the morning, Yun Zheng and his men split into two groups.

Yun Zheng took Miaoyin to find Zhang Xu and Mingyue, while Shen Luoyan and the others took the children to Shen's house.

For this purpose, Yun Zheng specially asked someone to go to the Imperial College to ask for a day off for Qi Yan.

It has to be said that Qiyan is a very pitiful kid.

After returning to the imperial city, Qiyan spent most of his daytime studying at the Imperial College.

Now that Qi Yan is getting older, he can no longer play with Yun Cang and Yun Jin. Shen Nianci has returned to the Shen family, and he doesn't even have a playmate in the palace.

When Qi Yan learned that he was going to Shen's house to play with Shen Nianzhi, his face almost broke into a smile.

When they arrived at Zhang's residence, all the people in the residence ran out to greet them, making Yun Zheng feel a little uncomfortable.

Therefore, sometimes, being in a high position and having power may not necessarily be a good thing.

Too much awe means a lack of sincerity.

After chatting with the people in the Zhang Mansion for a while, Yun Zheng went to Zhang Xu's study alone with Zhang Xu.

"Is this thing so difficult to make?"

As soon as he entered the study, Yun Zheng started asking about Zhang Xu.

"It's really difficult!"

Zhang Xu nodded gently, "I want to make a small thing that can fly, but if people sit on it, it will have to be very big..."

Zhang Xu explained to Yun Zheng in detail the difficulties of making a hot air balloon.

If it's just a matter of making a lantern fly in the sky, that's not difficult.

But if you want to get people to sit, there are too many problems to solve.

Now it is hard to find anything good enough to make silk cloth breathable.

There's fire underneath this thing. You can't apply tung oil on it, right?

If other things are used to seal it, the silk cloth will be too heavy and the hot air balloon will not be able to fly.

Now Zhang Xu needs to find a sealing material. After applying it, the silk cloth must be light and soft, and not afraid of the scorching air waves.

Moreover, once it flies into the sky, the altitude is easy to control, but how do you control the direction?

Zhang Xu started to solve these problems when he was still in Shuobei, but he has not been able to solve them until now.

Listening to Zhang Xu's question, Yun Zheng was also racking his brains to think.

But he really couldn't remember any direction control device on the hot air balloon.

In his memory, this thing seemed to be a pull ring to control the size of the fire?

Depend on!

When the book is in use, I hate less!

Yun Zheng complained silently in his heart, and then said: "Then let's not worry about the direction problem, let's find a way to solve the sealing problem first and see if there is anything that can be used as a substitute."

At worst, you could just put a long rope on the ground and have someone pull it?

“I just can’t find this thing right now.”

Zhang Xu said bitterly: "If I could find it, I would have made this thing a long time ago!"

Yun Zheng thought about it and decided, "The people from the Institute of Technology should have been selected. Let's go to the Institute of Technology tomorrow to get to know those people and brainstorm to see if they have any solutions!"

Damn it!

I didn't expect this thing to be so troublesome!

Ugh!

No matter how troublesome it is, we have to do it!

Who said this was a promise I made?
