A Timely Wife

The envoys were brought by the Minister of Rituals to play in Nanjiang Mansion for three days, and they became more and more restless every day. The longer the time, the more they watched, the less sure they were in their hearts. They had to get together every night to discuss, Analyze the possibility that the emperor of Southern Chu is willing to let them become vassal states, but the more they discuss, the more guilty they become. They seem to have no capital to make the emperor of Southern Chu feel that it is beneficial to accept them.

The Minister of Rites told them this afternoon that the emperor was going to meet with them tomorrow, and asked them to get ready. Someone would come to pick them up tomorrow morning and go to the government building to face the saint. The envoys all knew that there was no imperial palace in Nanchu. The emperor Xiong Ruoshan lives in No. [-] Chuming Street. It is a three-entry house. It is very small and not as good as their mansion. But now, no one dares to underestimate this little emperor. Although he is not as good as them in food and housing, what he has Own far more than them.

The Crown Prince of Anhe Kingdom has not spoken for the past few days. No matter what people from other countries say, he stands quietly and listens. The attitude of Anhe Kingdom was too arrogant before, and he has faintly let the other fifteen The country is somewhat dissatisfied. The Crown Prince of Anhe Kingdom is a very sober person. He has advised the king of Anhe Kingdom not to do things too extreme and not to be too arrogant. He fell out with [-] other countries, but unfortunately, his father and king could not listen to his own opinions at that time. Instead, he grew fond of his half-brother and felt that his brother obeyed him in everything, but he always followed him. He likes to sing a different tune, and when he comes and goes, his attitude towards him is much colder.

Originally a cautious person, after feeling that his father's attitude towards him was not right, the Crown Prince of Anhe became more restrained and stopped expressing any thoughts easily, just watching his father's attitude change day by day. A day of arrogance, from calling himself the King of the South secretly to calling himself the King of the South in front of the ministers of other countries, the Crown Prince of Anhe Kingdom was ready to be destroyed at that time, even if it is now taboo by the other fifteen countries They held the Poppy Valley and Fushou Ointment in their hands, but when Nanchu was attacked by them, Dahe also ruled with them according to the agreement. Other countries will never tolerate Anhe Kingdom. When the war is over, When will the day when the country of Anhe will destroy the country will come.

Fortunately, General Li Ruosong of Southern Chu led his troops to chase after him. He not only burned the warehouse where the drugs were stored, but also completely destroyed the poppy valley. His father hated Li Ruosong to death, but he was grateful To him, Li Ruosong is simply the hero who saved Anhe Kingdom. The crown prince of Anhe Kingdom wanted to join Southern Chu at that time, but at that time other countries were still besieging Li Ruosong. , as a member of the coalition forces, it's not easy to say.

The establishment of the envoy group was the result of the insistence of the Crown Prince of Anhe Kingdom. He also sent envoys from the Prince's Mansion to other countries to lobby many times. Of course, his timing was also very good. It happened that the dam was built in Nanchu Before, after his father made himself ill, before other countries thought of this, he started to propose this idea. It only took ten days for other countries to go from the initial cynicism to the later full support.

Since this proposal was first proposed by the Crown Prince of Anhe Kingdom, the envoys of the other [-] countries vaguely led the peace talks with the Crown Prince of Anhe Kingdom, but the Crown Prince of Anhe Kingdom was very modest. Try not to be in the limelight as much as possible, usually they discuss or discuss, he never speaks, even if asked him, he will just say that he is still young and doesn't understand many things, so he won't cause trouble for everyone up.

It is true that the crown prince of Anhe Kingdom is the youngest among the people who are traveling with him. Not only did he not make others think that this young man is incapable, but he felt that the crown prince of Anhe Kingdom was different from his father. People who are humble, courteous, and determined have a better attitude towards him.

After receiving the notice from the Minister of Rites of Southern Chu, the envoys of the sixteen countries were a little sad, not knowing what to do, or how to raise their own ideas. Only at this time did the Crown Prince of Anhe Kingdom speak: " Ladies and gentlemen, I don't know if I should say something or not."

The oldest member of the envoys was the Prince Regent of Pingyue Kingdom. The old Prince Regent stroked his beard and said, "Prince An, you are being polite. If you have something to say, it doesn't matter."

The Crown Prince of Anhe Kingdom stood up, bowed to the others before he said, "You must have seen it all this way, the strength and wealth of Southern Chu make us jealous, and it is absolutely true that we are completely unmoved." Impossible, Nanchu is like a piece of fat, if you don’t want to take a bite, it’s not us, but unfortunately, no matter who we are in these countries, there is no way to bite off a piece of meat from Nanchu, even very It may be bitten to death by someone in turn.

The kid thinks that this should be something that we all know in our hearts. It doesn't mean that the kid spoils our own prestige with others' aspirations, but that we are all mortals. No matter how we think about it, it is impossible to shoot so many guns. Among other things, it is the kind of car we are riding, with a little modification on the front, and when it is driven on the battlefield, our soldiers can die unknowingly.

We can’t compare to Southern Chu in terms of military strength, and the national power is definitely not the opponent of Southern Chu. Whether it is paving the road or recruiting troops, without a lot of money to support it, I don’t think there is any way to do it. On our way from Pingnan Mansion to Nanjiang Mansion, no matter how remote the place is, there are flat and spacious concrete roads, and street lights have been installed in more than half of the places, and many people have already used electric lights. Chu's Academy of Sciences is still working on other things. Perhaps in two years, the appearance of Nanchu will undergo a huge change from what it is now.

Look at the loyalty of the common people to the Southern Chu court. Although they are very warm and polite to us now, they will be very enthusiastic to introduce this and that to us when they see us visiting, but once we reveal a little bit of secrets It means that their eyes immediately changed, very vigilant and very angry, even if we explain later that it was unintentional and gave them money and gifts, their attitude is very cold.

Ladies and gentlemen, what do you think is the probability of this kind of thing happening in our own country? I dare not say that everyone will sell their country when they see the silver. Not many, but these ordinary people in Nanchu, whether they are farmers or workers, whether they are old people or children, their loyalty to Nanchu is extremely high. They feel that their lives are very good now, and they will never allow others to come Destroyed.

Under such circumstances, if we continue to use troops against Southern Chu, we may not even be able to keep the foundations left by our ancestors in the future. I think that everyone present will not want to see this day. We have come to negotiate peace. In order to resolve the enmity with Nan Chu, I hope everyone can coexist peacefully in the future.

These are the eight words I put forward before we came, but now it seems that the boy is too naive, not to mention whether the hatred can be resolved, and the item of peaceful coexistence is not shown, the boy does not think that the emperor of Nanchu will always Let our dozens of countries that have fought against them always jump around under their noses. People in Nanchu often say that others are not allowed to snore on the side of the couch. No matter from which aspect, our existence is important to them. There is always a threat.

If we want to become a vassal state, our more than ten countries are not qualified, because we don't have anything that makes Nanchu envious. This little emperor of Nanchu is completely different from his father who is very happy. I can feel that this The little emperor is a very pragmatic person. For him, it is better for everyone to give him money to meet his wishes. He wants to negotiate terms with others if he does not have enough capital in his hand. Agree, it means that they are not idiots, or they are deliberately teasing us.

Why did they arrange such an itinerary for us? Why didn't they rush to make peace with us when Dahe was aggressively attacking us? Instead, they let us ask everywhere, why they didn't rush to see us? They meant very much. Understand, it is to let us feel what kind of country Nanchu is, whether it is a country we can bully, and whether they will let us make progress. "

The old regent of Pingyue Kingdom heard this, and said with great emotion: "Prince An's words are very true, I didn't expect, I didn't expect, I am really old, and it depends on you young people in the future. Talents come out, with a leader like Prince An, we think that our more than ten countries will not live too badly in the future, Prince An, we all know what you just said, just say it, how do you think we compare now? good?"

The crown prince of Anhe Kingdom smiled gently, and said word by word: "Admit defeat, plead guilty, and request to be merged into the territory of Southern Chu and become the capital of Southern Chu."

As soon as this remark came out, there was an uproar. The civil servants were okay, but the military generals were directly angry. This is an absolutely impossible condition for them. The country handed it over, and they absolutely could not agree.

The crown prince of Anhe Kingdom was not annoyed, even if he was pointed at his nose and scolded, he looked at him with a gentle expression. After a brief shock, the civil servants began to seriously consider the proposal of the crown prince of Anhe Kingdom. The more I think this proposal is very good, only in this way can I enjoy everything that Nanchu has now. If they are not a family, the emperor of Nanchu will agree to give them so many good things unless he is out of his mind.
