After the end of the dynasty.
Emperor Wu's husband took the general Yuan Yu and the prime minister Hu Lin to the imperial study.
People just entered,
Before the two of them could speak,
The anger on Wu Huangfu Chai's face dissipated instantly, and he said helplessly: "Stop talking, I know what you are going to say."
"There were too many people in the palace just now. If I don't lose my temper, not only will it lose Da Wu's face, but they may also think that I am timid and cowardly, and they can bully me at will."
Yuan Yu nodded immediately to express his understanding.
Hu Lin, on the other hand, sneered secretly in his heart.
Being a bitch and setting up a memorial arch.
How shameless!
Who doesn’t know that some time ago, you gave your queen to the Emperor of Qi?
Are you missing a sister-in-law now?
But he understood.
After all, in front of hundreds of civil and military officials, the emperor had to be tough.
You can't just agree to such a request in public.
Now I am meeting the two of them in private, probably because of this matter.
Sigh.
Wu Huangfu Chai continued: "Please tell me your opinions. This time, Qi State's request, in addition to three thousand beauties and Qiao sisters, also requires us to donate two hundred thousand dan of grain and ten million taels of silver. and all the territory north of the Ya River.”
Yuan Yu and Hu Lin looked at each other and smiled bitterly at the same time.
Hu Lin cupped his hands and said: "Your Majesty, the other demands are within the tolerance range. Wu is already rich, so it is not a problem to spend tens of millions of taels of silver. Moreover, the autumn harvest is about to begin, and we can also afford food and grass."
"As for the territory north of the Yahe River, there is only one county, Guangling. It would not be a big deal to the Wu State to cede it."
"Only the Qiao family..."
Speaking of which,
Hurin stopped.
Wu Huangfucha glanced at him and understood what he meant.
If the Qiao sisters were simply the daughters of a prefect.
Although the envoy cannot make the decision.
But in Wu Huangfu Chai's case, it's just a matter of words.
Do they still dare to refuse?
but now,
Their identity is not just the daughters of the prefect.
My younger sister, Xiao Qiao, whose late husband was the former governor of the Wu Kingdom, has now returned to Lujiang and has not remarried.
My sister, Da Qiao, has a different identity.
Not only was she the concubine of the late Emperor Wu, but she was also the wife of Emperor Wu's husband in name.
several years ago.
The Battle of Wuyue,
The first emperor of Wu State was not only defeated on the battlefield, but also seriously injured.
Before leaving, because he had no children, he passed the throne to his younger brother, Emperor Wu Fuchai.
Since it was his younger brother who inherited the throne,
So Da Qiao cannot be regarded as the Crown Princess.
But she still holds the title of imperial concubine and currently lives in the deep palace.
If the two sisters of the Qiao family were ordinary people's daughters, even if they were the children of ministers, they would be just one word away from Emperor Wu.
But with such an identity,
This made Wu Huang Fu Cha very embarrassed.
After struggling and hesitating for a long time, Wu Huangfu Cha gritted his teeth and asked: "If I agree to this condition, how many troops can Qi send? Can it help me annex Yue in one fell swoop?"
Yuan Yu said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, according to the current agreement, the Qi State Congress will send 50,000 infantry and cavalry troops south to assist us."
"As for whether it can annex the Yue Kingdom, it's really hard to say."
A sinister look flashed across Huang Huang's eyes.
In order to regain Da Wu.
To wash away the shame.
Wu Huangfu Chai was willing to do so at any cost.
The premise is that the goal can be achieved.
"I ask you, are you confident in annexing Yue?"
Wu Huangfu Chai looked ferocious and his voice was hoarse.
Yuan Yu did not answer immediately. After pondering for a long time, he finally said bravely: "The general will have confidence!"
"The Qi army is brave and good at fighting. It has never suffered a defeat since Han Lin ascended the throne."
"If the Qi army gives full support, I will be confident that we can defeat Kuaiji within three months!"
Got a positive reply from Yuan Yu.
Emperor Wu Fu Chai turned his attention to Prime Minister Hu Lin.
Hu Lin said: "Your Majesty, before making a decision, please allow me to state my interests."
"you say."
Hu Lin coughed dryly, cleared his throat, and then continued: "If you agree, your Majesty must also know that both Wu and Your Majesty will lose face, but face comes from strength. If we can annex Yue, I believe outsiders I don’t dare to make irresponsible remarks.”
"But if we fail to annex, we will not only become a laughing stock, but we will also face a counterattack from Vietnam."
"If you don't succeed, you will be benevolent. I hope your majesty will make a careful decision."
Wu Huangfu Chai had a resolute face and said firmly: "The winner is the king and the loser is the bandit!"
"I am now in the prime of my life and can still go into battle to kill the enemy. I am not willing to waste my time in this small city of Gusu!"
"I want to annex the Yue Kingdom and attack the Qi Kingdom in the north. I want those who have insulted me to pay with their blood!"
"Sit down and try your courage! He Gou Jian can do it, and my husband Chai can do it too!"
"This time, I am just using the power of Qi to annex Yue first. When Wu recovers its strength in the future, I will definitely send troops to Qi to let him know what it feels like for a queen to be under someone else's crotch!"
The more Wu Huangfu Chai talked, the more excited he became.
Like a mad beast, roaring hysterically.
months ago.
After being defeated in the battle with Yue,
Wu Huangfu Chai was depressed and drank every day to survive.
But later,
Wu Huangfu Chai stood on the tower,
The heartbreaking feeling he felt when he witnessed his woman getting on the carriage heading to Qi State made him sober up.
Wu Huangfu Chai swore that the humiliation he had suffered must be returned to Han Lin.
but,
He doesn't have this strength now.
Therefore, the first step is to use the strength of Qi State to annex the Yue State in the south.
Once the worries are resolved, we can use all our strength to deal with Qi.
For revenge,
Wu Huangfu Chai no longer cares about being shameless.
Can face be used as food?
If you lose face, can you lose a few pieces of meat?
Wu Huangfu Chai didn't care about such illusory things at all.
All he wants now is revenge.
After discussing with Yuan Yu and Hu Lin,
Matters were also determined.
After the two of them left, Emperor Wu's husband came to the depths of the palace.
The eunuchs and maids walking on the road bowed respectfully when they saw Emperor Wu's husband.
Wu Huangfu Chai ignored them and walked straight into the depths.
finally,
Stopped in front of a side hall.
In the yard, the ground was covered with leaves.
Compared with other palaces, this place seems particularly deserted.
Wu Huang's husband didn't stingy with the door, he just opened the door and entered, striding straight towards the inner room.
Subsequently,
Then he saw the figure that haunted him in his dreams.
Da Qiao, wearing a pink dress, is like a red lotus blooming alone.
Three thousand black hairs, as black as ink, spread down like a waterfall, hanging down to her waist.
There is a hint of soft color in the willow eyebrows, and a pair of beautiful eyes are full of autumn.
I seem to hear a noise,
Da Qiao raised his head and saw a trace of panic on his exquisite and elegant face after seeing Fu Chai's figure.
"I have met His Majesty."
"I don't know why your Majesty came here."
After Yingying Fu Shen, Da Qiao asked vigilantly.
