Master Xiu's Cannon Fodder [Transmigration Book]

In the post house of Chen State, two envoys from Zhao State had just returned from King Chen's Palace, and they went straight into the house. After a bang sound of the door slamming, they heard a rough voice coming from the room:

"This country of Chen is really arrogant. He even asked us to cede ten cities to them. We might as well go back and fight Lianggou desperately, so we won't suffer from such a bird."

The man had great strength, and when he spoke, the big case in the room creaked, and coupled with the husky voice, he should be from a martial arts family. The two attendants who were in charge of reception outside the door heard his words. After these words, you are terrified, you look at me and I look at you.

The resolution reached between His Majesty and Zhao Guo's envoys is beyond their control, but His Majesty also said that during Zhao's stay in Chen, they must be careful and serve them, and they must not afford to offend them. , but seeing how irritable this guy is now, and thinking about his burly appearance...

Qi Qi, the servant outside the door, shivered, fearing that the envoy from the barbarian Zhao Kingdom would be unhappy, so he rushed out and twisted off their heads. After all, in their perception, Zhao who was far away from the Central Plains The Chinese are such a terrifying existence.

Fortunately, just before the man put it into practice, another male voice came from the room:

"Be safe and don't be impatient." The voice sounded much softer, it should be a civil servant.

Afterwards, the civil servant paused for a moment, and then proposed again:

"Haven't you never been to Chen Country? Why don't you walk around and see how Yedu in Chen Country compares with our Yangcheng."

"Listen to Master Han."

The person who spoke before said in a low voice, and it could be heard that although he was still a little reluctant, he would still obey the civil servant with a soft voice.

The door of the room was opened again, and two young men came out. The one in front was dressed in green clothes and long gown. He didn't seem to be from the country of Zhao who was always a martial artist. The man waved to the two attendants standing outside the door:

"Hey, you two come here! Is there any place for you to shop here!"

It was snowing outside, and the envoy from Zhao State felt that there was nothing to go to. Unexpectedly, when the two attendants heard it, they hurriedly introduced it warmly:

"The two adults can come to our West Market to have a look. There are all kinds of goods there, and it is very lively."

Although there is still light snow in the sky at this time, the West Market in Chen Country is still overcrowded, and there are a lot of goods on both sides of the street. What surprised Han Lin most is that not only products produced in Chen Country are sold here... , there are more silks brought back by the merchants from Zhou, the orphaned classics of Master Liang, and even the long swords forged by their famous masters of Zhao.

It is worthy of being the hub between several countries, a prosperous and prosperous country with business.

Walking through the shops, Han Lin heard the black and strong man beside him muttering:

"The excitement is lively, it's still worse than our Yangcheng."

But when he said this, the eyes on his dark face did not move away from the overwhelming goods for a moment.

Han Lin laughed, knowing that he was unwilling to admit that Yangcheng was not as prosperous as this place. After all, for Zhao Zhao, who grew up in Zhao State, the admiration for that land was his own. beyond human comprehension.

"My lords, our West Market is mainly divided into several areas, and further inside is the area for buying and selling livestock..."

Han Lin nodded, took out a few copper plates and put them in the hands of an attendant.

"Thank you for leading the way. It's getting late. Let's walk casually by ourselves. Take this to the bar."

The two attendants glanced at each other. Logically speaking, envoys from other countries should not wander around by themselves, but they were just walking around in this West Market, surrounded by merchants who bought and sold goods. Nothing happened, and more importantly, they did sit down and drink.

"After that hour, we will take the two adults back to the post house." After reaching a consensus, one of the attendants folded his hands and replied, which means that Han Lin and Zhao Zhao can move freely for a long time.

It's just that Han Lin didn't forget that the two of them came to Chen at this time to stabilize the country of Chen and not to carry out espionage activities, so they just wandered around casually, asking for food, grass, medicine and other necessities for marching and fighting After all, even if they came to form an alliance with Chen Guo at this time, perhaps within a few years, the two countries that went to war would become them and Chen Guo.

Just as they were shuttling through the bustling crowd, a young man bumped into Han Lin's body suddenly.

"Are you OK."

The incident happened suddenly, Han Lin subconsciously supported the boy in front of him, and asked with concern, but the boy lowered his head, quickly said nothing, and left in a hurry, but Han Lin stared blankly at the boy. The direction the boy left seemed to be thinking about something.

"Master Han, what's the matter?"

Hearing Zhao Zhao's voice, Han Lin suddenly came back to his senses. He shook his head slowly, but his expression was still dignified and full of confusion. For some reason, the boy just gave him an inexplicable sense of familiarity, but obviously He didn't even see the boy's face clearly.

With such doubts, Han Lin was about to move on, but he just took half a step, but he seemed to have stepped on something. He quickly bent down and picked up the thing under his feet, which turned out to be a jade pendant.

Rubbing the pattern on the jade pendant, Han Lin's expression changed suddenly, and the hand holding the jade pendant froze in mid-air. Even Zhao Zhao, who was not good at observing, noticed his abnormality.

"grown ups?"

Han Lin suddenly held the jade pendant in his hand, as if nothing had happened, walked straight forward and said:

"It's okay, let's go back first."

Zhao Yan, who had been hiding in the dark, was relieved a little when the two people in the market disappeared into the crowd.

As he remembered, Han Lin was a smart and loyal person. Fortunately, Zhao Guo sent Han Lin this time, otherwise he would not have revealed his identity so hastily.

Now, all he has to do is to quietly wait for the meeting after night falls.

===

Thinking of what he said to Su Yan that day, Xie Zhi's intestines turned green.

"No matter how sincere and deep the relationship is, if one day it comes to an end, what will it be?"

Su Yan asked like this, but Xie Zhi answered directly without thinking:

"Forget each other in the rivers and lakes, or get stabbed in the back."

Su Yan looked at Xie Zhi in surprise, Xie Zhi quickly made a deep expression of "I have experienced it".

Brothers turned against each other, camps fought civil wars, gangs fought against each other, and the agreed temporary A never came back. Xie Zhi said that he had experienced all of them in the game.

Thinking of those experiences, Xie Zhi let out a sigh of relief and comforted Su Yan:

"Why do you have to think so much? In fact, where is that complicated? In fact, it is only four words."

"Which four words?" Su Yan asked curiously.

"If you don't accept it, do it."

Su Yan looked at Xie Zhi with a look of horror, and then he was silent for a long time before slowly nodding his head and saying, "I see, thank you for clarifying my confusion, my lord." Then he left in a hurry, leaving Xie Zhi alone Stand still and wonder.

What did Su Yan understand?

"I always feel like I said something wrong. After all, Su Yan is a grandma, what can I do..."

Recalling the scene at that time, Xie Zhi held his forehead and said in distress, but the servant was already urging:

"My lord, it's almost time for the court meeting."

"Get the carriage ready." Xie Zhi got up lazily and said.

It has been several days since Zhao Guo's envoy came to Chen Guo, but Chen Jue has never held a court meeting to discuss this matter. He has reason to believe that that guy must want to bargain with Zhao Guo in private now and make more unreasonable demands A lot of advantage, after all, for Zhao Guo now, time is money.

Don't agree?If you don't agree, we will continue to procrastinate!When Liang Guo gathers enough troops, you will really be finished~

In such a situation, even if they are unwilling, Zhao Guo's envoys can only fully accept Chen Guo's conditions, and this court meeting is to ask Zhao Guo to make the conditions agreed before in front of the whole world. .

"Why haven't I seen Zhao Yan recently?"

Thinking of the time when he was looking for Zhao Yan recently, Xie Zhi couldn't help asking when he was not in the mansion.

Wangcai put on the fur coat for Xie Zhi, and explained: "Tang Er has gone home, and the mansion is short of manpower, so I will ask him to help with the shopping."

The carriage went directly to the palace, and there was still some time before the court meeting began. Xie Zhi remembered that Chen Jue had gone to his mansion to admire the plums, and thought to himself:

"Could it be that the plum blossoms in Emperor Chen's palace are not as good as those in my mansion?"

So I was going to walk around to see if I could find where the imperial garden was.

It's a pity that Xie Zhi didn't know the road in the Chen Kingdom's palace, so he couldn't find the Royal Garden, but instead came across a small figure squatting on the side of the road.

Xie Zhi walked in front of that figure curiously. It was a half-grown child. He was squatting on the ground with his sleeves rolled up and struggling to pick up the dirt on the ground. His little hands were dirty and red from the cold.

"what are you doing?"

Xie Zhi asked curiously, the figure was taken aback and got up quickly.

The child was carved in pink and jade, but his nose and face were red from the cold. Seeing Xie Zhi's appearance clearly, he blinked his eyes and shouted crisply:

"Hi Huang Su!"

Xie Zhi was stunned for a moment before realizing that this kid who hadn't even grown his teeth was calling him Uncle Huang, that is to say, the kid in front of him turned out to be Chen Yu's nephew, the prince of Chen Guo.

A little boy like a steamed bun, Xie Zhi couldn't help squatting down and pinching the face of the future Emperor Chen. He thought it felt pretty good. Just when he was about to pinch a few more times, a familiar voice came from behind him. coming.

"What are you still doing here, the Zhengyang Palace is not in this direction."

"Su Yan!"

"Mr. Su!"

The two people, one big and one small, who were looking at each other shouted almost at the same time.

I don't know if it was Xie Zhi's illusion, but he seemed to see Su Yan sighed slightly, and said coldly to the little kid with no expression on his face:

"Go back and endorse carefully, and check at night."

"Yes!" The little brat hurriedly agreed, and ran away in a flash, not forgetting to hide his dirty hands in his wide sleeves while running.

In this way, it is like a student who skipped class and came out to play meets the head teacher, but then again, it seems that the little kid was Su Yan's student in the first place.

The two walked side by side like this, Xie Zhi took a peek at Su Yan's face, but he didn't dare to speak, Su Yan didn't speak all the way, and the two of them entered the Zhengyang Palace of Chen Guo one after another, which is the special hall of Chen Guo. The main hall used to deal with important events.

After waiting for a while, the two envoys of Zhao Guo also entered the hall as the messenger shouted loudly.

"Han Lin, see His Majesty Chen Guo." The young man in the lead saluted respectfully.

It turned out that Zhao Guo sent Han Lin.

Hearing this name, Xie Zhi couldn't help but look at the young man who spoke. After all, in this book, Han Lin is definitely an important supporting role that has a great influence on the direction of the plot. He is a capable minister, the only regret The only thing is to die too early, otherwise Zhao Guo wouldn't be broken so easily, and Zhao Xing wouldn't be defeated so miserably.

As imagined, Han Lin looks very young. In fact, he is only in his early twenties. His temperament is elegant and gentle, so it is hard to imagine how he became close friends with the cruel and cold-blooded brother Kai Huo of.

Perhaps this is the legendary complementarity?

Xie Zhi was imagining the relationship between Brother Kaihuo and Han Lin, but Han Lin had already spoken.

"Our conditions are very simple. I hope Chen Guo will not get involved in the struggle between Zhao Guo and Liang Guo."

"Our conditions are also very simple. If Zhao Guo is willing to cede ten cities, Chen Guo will naturally not send troops."

Naturally, it was not Chen Jue who was speaking here, but the prime minister of Chen Guo, a very shrewd young man.

Forgive Xie Zhi for not remembering what his name is, anyway, for this kind of character who appears once and never sees again, they only have one name - Passerby A.

Because they had negotiated in secret before and reached a consensus, Han Lin naturally readily agreed to this request. He took a scroll from Zhao Zhao beside him, bowed down and presented it respectfully.

"My emperor is naturally willing, here is the map of the ten cities, as long as His Majesty affixes a golden seal on the map, our covenant will naturally be fulfilled.

Chen Jue nodded to the prime minister, he took the scroll comprehendingly, and handed it to Chen Jue, Chen Jue couldn't wait to open the map, with a smug smile on his face, after all these years, only they ceded the land to Zhao Guo, this is the first time to get a city from Zhao Guo.

However, when Chen Jue saw clearly where the city was on the map, his expression suddenly changed, and the muscles on his face twitched slightly. Show the map to the ministers.

When Xie Zhi saw the map, he finally understood why Chen Jue reacted like this.

All the cities ceded to Chen Guo on the map are in the east of Jiaguan.

There were buzzing whispers in the hall, and it took a long time to calm down. Chen Jue took a deep breath, trying to make his tone sound calm and normal, and only heard him say to Han Lin:

"If I remember correctly, all the cities you mentioned are in the east of Jiaguan."

"Yes."

"If I still remember correctly, the east of Zhao Guojia Pass has already been occupied by Liang Guo, so it's not good for you to give us something from someone else."

"Your Majesty, please rest assured. When the war between Zhao Guo and Liang Guo subsides, the promise will be fulfilled. Please rest assured of Zhao Guo's reputation."

Han Lin answered without blushing, like Zhao Guo really has credibility, as if he felt that his words were not convincing, Han Lin smiled and said:

"What's more, even if we cede Yangcheng to His Majesty, would Your Majesty dare to take it?"

For a while, the hall was so quiet that even the sound of breathing could be heard clearly. Looking at Chen Jue again, the muscles on his face were twitching slightly, and his eyes were wide open. From his expression, Xie Zhi could guess that he is now What is thinking in my heart.

WTF! !How could there be such a shameless person in the world! !

Han Lin's move was really shameless. Not only did he slap Chen Jue across the face, but he also made Chen Jue swallow the knocked out teeth in his stomach.

Think about it, if Zhao Guo gave the city in Jiaguan to Chen Guo, what should Chen Guo do?Send troops to garrison, it's like going deep into the tiger's den, and Zhao Guo may close the door and beat the dogs at any time, don't send it... What's the difference between ceding and not ceding?

Take another [-] steps back and say, if Zhao Guo is defeated, all the cities promised by Zhao Guo will be in the hands of Liang Guo. With the city back, Chen Guo can only hope that Zhao Guo won't turn around and take care of Chen Guo, his old friend, after defeating Liang Guo.

All in all, no matter which one wins, it is not good for Chen Guo. The best outcome is that both sides will suffer. No matter whether it is an alliance or not, Chen Guo must also remain neutral, otherwise it is ready to accept the wrath of the victorious country.

After realizing this, Chen Jue no longer entangled in this issue. He stared down at Chen Xiang, who was the one who proposed this stupid condition at the beginning, asking Zhao Guo to cede ten cities. Now it's all right. !They have nothing left, and they can only hope that Zhao Guo will have some credibility and conscience after winning the battle, and fulfill their promise.

Chen Xiang lowered his head tremblingly, for fear that Chen Jue would take his anger out on him and cut off his head. After all, although he made the proposal, it was Chen Jue who made the final decision.

Suddenly realizing this, Chen Jue closed his eyes weakly, nodded, and stamped a golden seal on the map.

After the goal was achieved, Han Lin did not leave, he took a step forward, bowed and said:

"In order to show the sincerity of our country's alliance with Chen Guo, Zhao Guo wants to form an marriage relationship with Chen Guo, and marry my emperor's beloved daughter, Princess Zhaoping, to Chen Guo."

Chen Jue now has a headache when he thinks of Zhao Guo, not to mention that he is attached to someone now, so naturally he would not have the idea of ​​marrying a wife, so he waved his hand and refused without thinking:

"I have no intention of marrying the queen for the time being."

Han Lin seemed to have guessed that he would say this a long time ago, he smiled, cupped his hands again and said:

"Your Majesty, what my emperor wants is to marry Princess Zhaoping of Zhao Kingdom to His Majesty's younger brother, Young Master Chen Yu."

The author has something to say: _(:з」∠)_ It’s so boring to stay on this map of Chen Guo... Now I’m going to switch to the map~~~~
