I am the empress, you still tell me to run away?

Especially Lan Xiang, who used to guard the northern border of the Wei State, fought several times with the tribes of the grassland, and beheaded 20 people in two battles.

As for Fang Wenyi, he is not a simple character either. He follows Wei Wuji, the "Great Wall of Wei" all the year round, and has been deeply influenced by Wei Wuji's inheritance.

This attack on Daliang, the capital of Wei State, and the beheading of Wei Ziling were planned by him, and it was easy to break the situation, otherwise Wei State's civil war would have lasted longer.

According to his estimation, as long as Wei Guo recuperates for a month, the new emperor of Wei Guo will probably appoint Lan Xiang as the head coach, and go south to recover the lost ground.

At that time, it must be a bloody battle.

If there is no accident, the tribes of Yu State, Chu State, and Grassland will also participate at that time.

When the time comes, what's the use of empress Ji Handan being able to fight again?

And the New Deal, didn't he quit it with one word? !

The Hall of Supreme Harmony fell silent, and the ministers continued to argue, some claiming to return the land, some claiming not to return it, and some claiming to continue the war...

"stop!"

Empress Ji Handan raised her hand, feeling that it was almost done.

Although the ministers were arguing fiercely, the stakes of the two propositions were all analyzed clearly.

"Okay, since it will hurt the morale of my Dagan soldiers, and if I don't return it, Dagan will fall into the quagmire of war, so let's make a compromise."

compromise?

The ministers looked at each other, what is His Majesty's idea?

There is no reason to compromise on this important military matter, isn't it a joke?

Thinking of the fact that their empress Ji Handan was far inferior to the Queen Mother in terms of internal affairs, all the ministers lamented in their hearts.

Chief Assistant Sima Zhao held Wuban and said, "Please give instructions from Your Majesty."

Empress Ji Handan said: "The one state and three counties I captured this time are eleven counties in terms of counties. I decided to keep at least three counties, and the rest can be returned to Wei Guo, but Wei Guo must sign a covenant. Admit that these three counties belong to my Dagan, and shall not be conquered!"

"As for which counties will be returned and what Wei State will be required to pay, the cabinet will discuss and decide, and prepare representatives to negotiate with Wei State."

"..."

what?

There is also a way to deal with this?

In the main hall, the civil servants and military generals were arguing endlessly over the Empress Ji Handan's proposal, and the more they thought about it, the more wrong it became.

Sima Zhao, the chief assistant of the cabinet, was surprised. He immediately understood the intention of the empress Ji Handan. Such a decision would not only stabilize the morale of the generals, but also obtain sufficient benefits. Keep fighting.

There is even a covenant of reparations from the Wei State, which can continue to weaken the Wei State.

When Dagan calms down, he can repeat the same trick.

In this way, Wei Guo cut off five cities today and ten cities tomorrow, fearing that in the end there will be only Daliang, the capital of the country.

"Your Majesty Shengming!"

Having figured this out, Sima Zhao praised Wuban while holding it in his hand.

He really didn't expect the empress to come up with such a good solution, it is really impressive and frightening.

Could it be that the Queen Mother Li Ningyan came up with this method?

impossible!

Or, is it the mysterious person standing behind the empress Ji Handan? !

Thinking of the mysterious person who proposed the big reform, Sima Zhao felt chills in his heart. The assassin he sent out not long ago was an illegitimate daughter of his.

If the Empress Ji Handan hadn't raided the house of Mr. Lu these days, he definitely wouldn't have been inactive for a while.

This hatred, he remembered.

But, no matter what, standing in the Hall of Supreme Harmony, he, Sima Zhao, the chief assistant of the cabinet, must be loyal to Dagan!

In order to establish his authority, Sima Zhao turned around and explained the decision of the empress Ji Handan to everyone, and all the officials praised him.

"Your Majesty Shengming!"

"Your Majesty Shengming!"

"Your Majesty Shengming!"

Empress Ji Handan, who was sitting on the throne, was in a good mood when she heard the praise.

But for some unknown reason, I suddenly thought of Lin Xuan who was fishing in the small courtyard of Yongle Lane, and remembered Lin Xuan who was drunk and said that he would marry her...

My mood fluctuated inexplicably.

Ji Handan said: "Okay, that's all for now, retreat!"

Chapter 42 The Wei State Mission Arrives in Tiandu

In the early morning, Lin Xuan, wearing a sword, was walking on the way to Honglu Temple for work.

He has been thinking about a serious question for the past few days. In the past two months, he actually got drunk twice!

Twice!

Although it was Zhao Yuehan who brought the wine every time, he drank a little too much, but he shouldn't be so drunk.

You must know that many of the important characters in film and television novels are drunk and misunderstood.

Even those who get drunk after drinking will die of drunkenness after punching.

If there is a big winter, I am afraid that if it passes overnight, people will become popsicle sticks.

Especially when he was assassinated some time ago, and the mastermind behind the assassination was Taiwei Sima Zhao, the situation was even more serious.

If he was drunk, sleeping soundly in a dream, and some assassin came in, would he still be able to see the sun the next day?

Therefore, Lin Xuan made his next decision, no matter how delicious the wine Zhao Yuehan brought was, he would take a sip and never get drunk.

Speaking of which, the bought coachman Lao Xu's leg is still not healed, and it will take a while before the splint can be removed. Lin Xuan is somewhat melancholy.

This is like buying a car and not being able to drive it. It seems that I have to find time to learn how to ride a horse, drive a carriage or something.

Although being the prime minister of Honghe Temple, driving to work in person is a bit dazzling, but as long as he is not embarrassed, it will be others who are embarrassed.

What's more, he was originally a remnant of the nobles of the previous dynasty who lived in Yongle Lane. No matter how much gossip was made by the people of Tiandu, it would not be as cruel as the "remnants of the nobles of the former dynasty".

After all, knowing that he lived in Yongle Lane, no one dared to apply even if he hired a coachman to serve him.

The proprietress of the blacksmith shop in West City, Tiandu is a real person. The bronze sword she sold to him was a bit heavy, but the scabbard was very light and of good quality.

Now the sword in the scabbard has been replaced with a wooden sword, and it only weighs two or three catties in the hand, which is very light.

Arriving at Honglu Temple, Honglu Temple is still very busy as usual.

"Mr. Lin, morning!"

"Master Du, morning!"

Lin Xuan entered Honghe Temple and greeted each other with Du Yi, the Prime Minister of Honghe Temple standing in the courtyard.

After the routine ceremony was over, Lin Xuan was going to go in and check if there was a brief review by Zhu.

However, since he came to Honglu Temple, it seems that there have been few bamboo briefings approved. Even if he goes to work one day a week, this day is still in the morning...

Lin Xuan didn't bother to ask what the specific situation was, anyway, his goal of entering Honglu Temple was to have the opportunity to go on an envoy with the regiment in the future, so he just ran away when he found the opportunity.

"Lord Lin, wait a moment. Lord Luo has given an explanation. There are still three days before the Wei State Mission will arrive in Tiandu. By then, you will be busy for a while. The number of rest days will be changed to five days and two days off."

Honglu Temple Prime Minister Du Yi reminded.

Lin Xuan asked: "Thank you, Mr. Du, for reminding me. I wonder if there is anything else?"

Du Yi held the bamboo slips in his hand, and his beard was blown up by the wind: "The mission of the Wei State is here to negotiate with one prefecture and three counties in the northern border, and they will definitely contact Mr. Lin at that time. Mr. Lin must remember not to reveal the secrets of my work, otherwise No one can protect Master Lin."

"Also, Mr. Lin will also attend as one of my negotiators. I hope Mr. Lin will make some preparations earlier."

"Talk too much and you will lose!"

Lin Xuan said: "Thank you, Mr. Du, yes, Lin has made a note."

Is the Wei State Mission going to Dagan so soon?

For some reason, he seemed to recall that Zhao Yuehan had mentioned this matter when he came to visit him, but he had forgotten most of what was said during the banquet.

What was even more surprising was that the Daqian court would directly ask him to be responsible for receiving the Wei mission, and to attend as Daqian's negotiator.

You must know that he is a remnant of the nobles of the previous dynasty, and he won this official by offering papermaking skills.

But soon Lin Xuan figured it out.

Because this kind of situation has happened in Dagan before.

It is nothing more than used to buy the hearts of those old and young from the previous dynasty, to show that even if the emperor is changed, the treatment of them will not change.

Anyway, even if there is such an arrangement, it doesn't mean that Lin Xuan has much say.

Otherwise, Du Yi, the Prime Minister of Honghe Temple, would not have reminded me that "too much talk will lead to loss".

Of course, when Dagan needed to kill the remnants of the former aristocrats in Yongle Lane, he would not express anything like this.

I went to the office to have a look. There were several bamboo slips. It took Lin Xuan 5 minutes to complete all the instructions and put them aside on the wooden plate indicating completion.

When the time comes, someone will take it away and send it elsewhere.

After finishing these, Lin Xuan walked home.

On the way, I went to the West Market in Xiatiandu, and gave the proprietress a blueprint, and specifically stated that the weight of the sword should not exceed two catties.

The proprietress was very happy when she saw the drawings, and promised to complete them.

In addition, the proprietress also said that she was sorry to see Lin Xuan's casting drawing, and that the sword would not cost money after it was made.

Lin Xuan understood in a second.

After all, when I was in the game before, no matter what kind of casting map was produced, I could sell it at a high price.

He directly sent the casting drawing to the proprietress, and the proprietress made a lot of money.

However, Lin Xuan didn't care.

Anyway, what he wanted was a good sword.

After all, what he had in the scabbard was a wooden sword, and the fact that he was able to kill the assassin by chance that night was also the reason why the wooden sword didn't fight the opponent head-on.

If the sword was against the sword and the wooden sword was broken, he would be dead.

Therefore, since I have learned some basic sword skills and need a life-saving sword, it is better to ask the proprietress to build a better one. As for the popular long sword of fifty or sixty catties, Lin Xuan said that he really can't handle it.

In addition, it is worth mentioning that he saw whether the swords of several officials in Honglu Temple weighed fifty or sixty catties, but found that their swords were just short wooden swords.

Good guy, he is more ruthless than him, at least his wooden sword is still long.

In particular, an official under the Honglu Temple ran away because of some urgent matter. Common sense, if he can run so fast while wearing a sword weighing fifty or sixty catties, he must be a master.

However, because he ran too fast, he was taken away by a nearby bush.

The wooden hilt fell out...

hiss……

At this moment, Lin Xuan finally understood why he didn't bring a sword when he came to work on the first day, and others looked at him strangely; after finally going to West Market to buy a sword, and walking on the road, others still looked at him strangely.

Probably, apart from those military generals and Jiang Hu people, no one is wearing a real sword.

……

three days later.

A group of more than 300 members of the Wei State Mission arrived in Tiandu and settled in the reception area for foreign missions.

This time, the mission sent by the Wei State is envoy Fang Fangyi, deputy envoy Le Danyang, and deputy envoy Heng Yanjun. I remember that Heng Yanjun is the most talented woman in Wei State.

Chapter 43 Wei State Deputy Envoy Heng Yanjun

Wei Guo's mission is very interesting.

Zhengshi Fangziyi is the cousin of Wei Guo's coach Fang Wenyi, and also Wei Guo's foreign minister. He seems to be one of Wei's three prime ministers, but as a foreign minister, his status is far lower than that of the left and right ministers.

Deputy envoy Le Danyang, this is Wei's Minister of Honghe Temple, good at debating, he can be regarded as the main debater in Wei's mission.
