Yao Qian had long been holding back his anger.
When he arrived in Luoyang, he couldn't afford to offend Zhao Shan, but he dared to attack his uncle Sun Chang. After one punch, my thoughts were completely clear, my whole body felt comfortable, and I just felt that life should be like this.
Yao Qian was so excited that he couldn't help but take another step forward. He came to Shusunchang and kicked his feet twice, which made him feel even more comfortable.
Uncle Sun Chang was the prime minister of the Northern Wei Dynasty and an important minister of the country at his age.
Now being beaten by Yao Gan, he was so angry that he frowned and his anger rose three feet high. He stood up holding his injured face, wiped off the dust on his body, gritted his teeth and said: "It's an insult to politeness, it's an insult to politeness! What a shame, what a shame!"
Yao Qian roared: "I just insult the gentlemen, so what? You are the prime minister of the Northern Wei Dynasty, how dare you roar in front of this prince. Xiliang and the Northern Wei Dynasty are far apart, and we are half Is it related to money?"
brush!
Uncle Sun Chang's expression changed slightly.
This is the relationship between the Northern Wei Dynasty and Xiliang.
There is no real alliance between the two countries. One is in the northeast and the other is in the northwest. The road is far away. Even if Tuoba Hong wants to go to war with Xiliang, he will be powerless.
Shusunchang blew his beard and glared, stamping his feet angrily: "Yao Qian, have you forgotten that the bottom line we agreed on is one million silver? You are the prince of Xiliang, why do you ignore Xiliang's national origin? How can you say nothing? Where’s the letter?”
"none of your business!"
Yao Qian still answered bluntly: "When did I promise you? When did we make an agreement? Everything is your wishful thinking."
Having said this, Yao Gan clenched his fist and waved it in the air, and said angrily: "What, do you still want to be beaten?"
Shusunchang quickly moved away, with a wary look on his face, and said in a deep voice: "You are the prince of Xiliang after all, why do you care so little about your status and decency?"
"Want you to take care of me?"
Yao Gan looked disdainful.
Shusunchang originally wanted to persuade Yao Qian to focus on Xiliang. However, Yao Qian was indifferent and his attitude was even worse. Shusunchang couldn't find an opportunity to talk and could only leave in a hurry.
Shusunchang returned to the post house and thought about what to do.
Three million taels of silver is a large amount.
He couldn't agree.
I dare not agree without permission.
Uncle Sun Chang said in front of Zhao Shan that the mission had someone arranged by Wan Yanming who could make the decision. In fact, there is no one who can make the decision. Shusunchang is responsible for himself. He has no one to discuss with, let alone shirk responsibility.
Shusunchang was thinking about the strategy to break the situation, and suddenly his eyes lit up.
He couldn't refuse Zhao Shan.
But what if something goes wrong with Yao Qian? What conflict happened between Xiliang and Dagan?
Thinking of this, Shusunchang had a strategy, the light in his eyes gradually became fierce, and a ruthless look appeared in his eyes.
If you can't break the situation, just muddy the waters.
Let’s start with Yao Qian.
Shusunchang called the people around him to arrange it. At the same time, Shusunchang also made preparations. Before the plan was completed, if Zhao Shan summoned him, he would find reasons to shirk it and delay it for some time.
When Shusunchang was executing the plan, the people in Dongchang spread the news to Zhang Xu that Shusunchang met Yao Qian but was beaten violently by Yao Qian.
Zhang Xu did not dare to delay and walked directly towards the palace.
When he saw Zhao Shan, he quickly reported: "Your Majesty, Shusunchang went to question Yao Qian why he agreed to the condition of three million taels of silver, but Yao Qian punched and kicked him twice. Shusunchang could not persuade Yao Qian. Qian, cursed and left, and both parties broke up unhappy."
Zhao Shan chuckled and said: "Uncle Sun Chang, an old fox, knows that he can't persuade me, so he wants to use Yao Qian as a shield. Once Yao Qian changes his conditions, he can at least say that Xiliang didn't even give three million taels of silver."
"Yao Qian refused, of course he was disappointed."
"Uncle Sunchang can't persuade me, and he can't find any opportunity or method, plus three million taels of silver can't make the decision. If we want to break the situation, we still have to rely on Yao Gan."
Zhang Xu seemed to understand, and asked doubtfully: "What do you mean, Your Majesty?"
Zhao Shan said: "If something goes wrong with Yao Qian in Dagan. Or if Yao Qian, the prince of Xiliang, suddenly dies in Luoyang, do you think Xiliang will let it go? When the war comes, who will still consider negotiations? "
hiss!
Zhang Xu took a breath.
This situation is too scary.
Zhang Xu thought for a while and continued: "Your Majesty, Yao Qian is the prince of Xiliang, and there are people accompanying him to protect him. What's more, this is the emperor's feet. Who dares to kill Yao Qian?"
Zhao Shan said calmly: "Under normal circumstances, there is no problem. No one dares to take risks. But dogs will jump over walls when they are anxious, and rabbits will bite people when they are anxious. Uncle Sun Chang is in a desperate situation and cannot control so much."
"Isn't it normal for Shusunchang, the prime minister of the Northern Wei Dynasty, to assassinate Yao Qian in order to muddy the waters? After Yao Gan died, Daqian and Xiliang started a war, so Shusunchang diverted his attention, maybe he could take the opportunity to negotiate."
Zhang Xu was horrified, and murderous intent emerged, and he quickly said: "Your Majesty, I will immediately arrange for people from Dongchang to capture Shusunchang."
Zhao Shan glanced sideways at Zhang Xu and said calmly: "Zhang Xu, if you don't have any brains, use your brain more. Although you know about this matter, you don't have any evidence. Can Shusunchang admit it? Besides, I also need Shusunchang. To assassinate.”
Zhang Xu asked in confusion: "Your Majesty, why?"
Zhao Shan said in a deep voice: "First, after Yao Qian was assassinated, he would be more hostile to the Northern Wei Dynasty, so that he would not be bewitched by the people of the Northern Wei Dynasty, and he would want to take power more. Secondly, Shu Sunchang did not agree to the three million taels. The condition is that we want Tuobahong to agree to the matter of Shusunchang's assassination of Yao Gan. After the incident was exposed, I detained Shusunchang, so that I could better control Tuobahong and force Tuobahong to submit."
Zhang Xu said: "Your Majesty is wise!"
Zhao Shan ordered: "Go and transfer people from Dongchang and protect Yao Qian secretly. Once Shusunchang's men take action, first capture the assassins, and then capture Shusunchang. We cannot let Shusunchang die. I To live.”
Zhang Xu replied: "Your Majesty, please rest assured, I will definitely make arrangements."
Zhao Shan waved his hand, and after Zhang Xu saluted, he got up and went straight to the East Factory to make arrangements. Zhang Xu had arranged everything properly, and the people in Dongchang were ready to go.
On the surface, Luoyang City seems calm, but there is a hidden murderous intention.
Yao Qian didn't care about this.
Yao Qian agreed to a compensation of three million taels of silver, and would have to spend another one million taels of silver as military expenses later. Yao Qian thought it was all worth it. When he became the emperor of Xiliang, he only had a few million taels of silver, which was just a small amount of money.
Yao Qian had nothing to do, but he was thinking about the brothels in Luoyang. The singers in Luoyang were far better than those in Xiliang.
All the women in Daqian are very juicy.
Except for women from noble backgrounds in Xiliang, most women have dark skin and very dry skin.
Even if the aristocratic women of Xiliang are well-kept, they are not exposed to wind and sun. Due to the geographical location, they are not as supple, white and beautiful as the women of Daqian in the Central Plains.
When Yao Qian came to Luoyang, he naturally wanted to seize the opportunity to privately criticize the women in the brothel. He is a good man and cannot see the brothel singer suffering, so he must support and save her.
