Su Zhe's ability to sit here calmly and explain these things to Su Qi'an is enough to show that this matter is not a big problem.
After Su Qi'an understood, he nodded slightly without getting too entangled. With Su Zhe's strength, he did have the means to pick him up in advance, so there was no problem.
Compared with such a trivial matter, Su Qi'an believed that Su Zhe had gone to great lengths to bring him here, and it was definitely more than just a way to cleanse him.
After a brief and reserved conversation between the two parties, Su Zhe put down the wine glass in his hand and said with a smile.
"Dongshan Hou has made huge contributions during his half-year stay in Dongzhou. Even those of us as far away as Kyoto have heard about it and admired it. It is a great blessing for Daliang to have such a talent as Dongshan Hou."
"When my father comes back, I must ask for rewards in front of him. I heard that my sixth brother also contributed a lot to the war in Dongzhou. I wonder how my sixth brother is doing in Yuezhou."
"I haven't seen you for a while. I still miss my sixth brother very much."
Su Qi'an's face was calm, but his mind was filled with speculation. Just as he thought, even though Su Kang was far away in Yuezhou, Su Zhe's "concern" for him still did not diminish by half.
This kind of inquiry is what Su Zhe wants to ask.
Su Qi'an had already prepared for Su Zhe's question. He clasped his fists and said softly, "In the war in Dongzhou, because Dongzhou did not have enough troops, Su did go to Yuezhou to rescue him. As for His Highness the King of Yue, Su did not have a close friendship with the King of Yue. Chat, not long after the war ended, the Yue King and the Yuezhou soldiers left quickly."
"His Highness really wants to ask the King of Yue. I forgive Su for not knowing. I really can't tell you. If His Highness wants to ask about other things about the war in Dongzhou, Su has already written them all down in the report. Just wait for His Majesty to return to Beijing and submit them."
"If His Highness wants to see it, Su can give it to His Highness in advance."
Su Qian's voice was calm, and he said something. Su Zhe smiled and nodded, saying a few vague words, and then revealed the matter.
How could Su Zhe not know about Su Qi'an's official rhetoric? Originally, Su Zhe didn't expect to gain anything from this kind of temptation. He just wanted to see how Su Qi'an would react.
It's a pity that Su Qi'an is not the stupid young man who didn't understand anything at first. During the conversation, he was neither humble nor overbearing. No changes in emotions were seen. His words and expression were extremely stable, without any flaws.
The reason why Su Qi'an hid it for Su Kang was not to cause trouble, but also to save his life.
Su Kang dared to tell Su Qi'an about his ambitions and show his strength, and he was least afraid of Su Qi'an reporting him.
Su Qi'an didn't know how big a deal Su Kang would get once he was reported, but he was sure of one thing. He would definitely be implicated and would not be able to escape.
All of them have reached such a high position, no matter it is Su Zhe, Su Tai, Su Kang or even Su Xuanyong, any movement will attract the attention of the other party.
Someone like Su Kang, who was openly ambitious and wanted to fight for imperial power, was exposed, even though there was no relationship between Su Qi'an and Su Kang.
But once suspicion arises, no one can escape. Not to mention whether Su Zhe and Su Tai will take action against Su Qi'an's changes, even Su Xuanyong will doubt him.
It can be said that from the moment Su Kang revealed his strength to Su Qi'an, Su Qi'an was involved.
Therefore, for the sake of your own safety, you must be careful in everything before you can truly compete with Su Zhe and Su Tai.
Under the auspices of Su Zhe, the three people toasted one after another and looked very harmonious. In addition to briefly asking about Su Kang, Su Zhe also had two purposes for this time.
One is that he knows that there is a deep conflict between Su Qi'an and Zheng Yuan, and hopes that for his sake, the hatred between the two parties can be resolved.
After all, one of them is the Prime Minister of Great Liang, and the other is a young military prince who has repeatedly helped calm down wars in Great Liang. For the sake of the overall situation, the two can reconcile.
Naturally, Su Qi'an had no objection to Su Zhe's words, but Zheng Yuan, on the other hand, looked unhappy. After all, it was because of the murder of his son. Even if Zheng Liang did violate military discipline and deserve to die, it would be difficult not to hate Su Qi'an.
Su Zhe did not force Zheng Yuan and gave him time to think. Zheng Yuan's eyes flashed, and after thinking for a long time, he said this.
"Since His Highness has said so, I am not ignorant of the overall situation. If you want me to resolve the grudges, you can do it. Unless Dongshan Marquis can belong to His Highness, then we belong to the same camp, so naturally many things need to be discussed."
Hearing this, Su Zhe's eyes flashed, and then he looked at Su Qi'an, with a hint of doubt on his face. Zheng Yuan had expressed his stance like this, so Dongshan Hou should have some expressions.
If it were anyone else, they might have believed it and probably agreed, but the singing and harmony between the two of them seemed too clumsy in Su Qi'an's opinion.
There is so much foreshadowing in order to lead to the second purpose of submission.
It seemed that Su Zhe did not force Su Qi'an and gave Su Qi'an enough time to think about it. However, Su Qi'an could clearly feel that as time passed by with his silence, not only was the atmosphere tense, but even outside the door, there seemed to be someone. Ruowu exudes a sense of urgency.
Just waiting for Su Qi'an to make a decision. If he can't do it, this time the meeting will probably not be so harmonious.
Time passed slowly, and Su Qi'an looked indifferent. Just when Su Qi'an was about to say something, suddenly, rapid footsteps sounded outside the door.
After a while, a palace guard broke in without warning. Su Zhe and Zheng Yuan looked obviously unhappy. Just as they were about to yell, the guard's voice rang out.
"Prince Qi, King Zhao has brought someone here. We can't stop him. He has already entered the palace."
Su Zhe and Zheng Yuan were startled. Su Tai's appearance somewhat disrupted the rhythm of the two of them. They thought they would cut off the beard in advance and pick him up as quickly as possible, seemingly quietly, but they didn't expect the news to leak out.
Just when Su Zhe opened his mouth, he was about to order the palace guards not to block him and to receive Su Tai openly and openly.
Not long after, Su Tai's figure appeared. He strode toward the door, and his hearty voice sounded.
"Haha, second brother, fourth brother came uninvited today. I hope that second brother will not blame me and allow second brother to entertain distinguished guests at the palace in person. Fourth brother is very curious about this."
Then, under the gaze of everyone, Su Tai walked in swaggering with his people.
Behind Su Tai, the two people following him were not ordinary people. They were the two princes Zhao Cheng and Sima Yue.
If there were outsiders present, they would definitely be shocked when they saw this scene in the room, two princes, three first-rank princes, and the most popular military lord of Great Liang today.
Just these few people, all present and stamping their feet casually, were enough to shock Kyoto.
When these important figures arrived, the palace guards who came to report them turned around and left in a very sensible manner.
Su Tai looked at Su Qi'an with his eyes, pretending to be surprised on his face, and said with a smile.
"Oh, it turns out that the distinguished guest hosted by my brother is the Marquis of Dongshan. It's not a bad idea for me to come here today."
"Ah, when did Marquis Dongshan come back? Why didn't you notify me? I'm really ashamed of myself for not being able to welcome Marquis Dongshan. Let's do this. I'll punish myself with three cups of wine as an apology."
With that said, Su Tai picked up the wine glass on the table and drank, seemingly not caring about Su Zhe the whole time.
Zheng Yuan on the side saw this, with a bit of displeasure on his face. He wanted to say something, but Su Zhe stopped him with his eyes. Su Zhe looked at Su Tai with an indifferent expression and said lightly after punishing himself with three cups.
"Since the fourth brother is here and has also drunk the fine wine, let's sit down together. It just so happens that everyone is here. If you have anything to say, if you don't mind, you can say it freely. We can treat it as a daily chat."
Su Tai naturally did not refute Su Zhe's words and motioned for Zhao Cheng and Sima Yue to take their seats, while he sat down next to Su Zhe.
As soon as he sat down, he said, "Since the second brother said it was a daily chat, I will just chat casually."
"Dongshan Hou, I am already aware of your outstanding performance in Dongzhou. You are indeed a great talent. I have really misjudged you. The previous conflict with you was unpleasant. I am here to apologize to you. "
"As for some of the conflicts between you and Duke Zhao and Duke Sima, I am aware of them. To put it bluntly, it is not a big deal. As the Marquis of Dongshan, I will definitely not care about it. This time I brought them both in person. Explain clearly to Marquis Dongshan."
"If Marquis Dongshan has any dissatisfaction, you can speak out. As long as I can do it, I will definitely make the decision for you. I really appreciate you. I am here today. I have nothing else but to get your help." , I hope to make friends with Dongshan Hou..."
"Fourth, you've gone too far. You've wanted to make friends with Marquis Dongshan since the beginning. Today, you're specifically here to help Marquis Dongshan. I think making friends is fake, but actually you want to poach people."
As soon as Su Tai came up, he didn't hide his purpose at all and talked directly. Su Zhe who was listening on the side was obviously unhappy and interrupted directly.
Su Tai disagreed and sneered, "Hey, second brother, I admire Dongshan Hou very much. It's just because of some misunderstandings before that I have some prejudices. But I will correct my mistakes. I don't think Dongshan Hou will follow suit." I care about everything."
"Unlike someone who not only arranged the game in advance, in the name of picking up the wind and washing away the dust, but actually cut off the rumors in advance, and finally did something to resolve the conflicts and grievances and let Dongshan Marquis belong to him, someone's abacus is really clever."
"And speaking of poaching people, the fourth brother really wants to ask the second brother, when did Dongshan Marquis become yours?" The second brother said this, are you not afraid of laughing out loud? "
"Fourth, you've gone too far. You really thought I didn't dare to teach you a lesson!" Su Zhe raised his eyebrows, with a hint of anger in his voice.
"Okay, I really want to learn how my second brother can deal with people. Anyway, my father is not in Kyoto during this period. It just depends on how strong my second brother is." Su Tai did not panic at all, and did not show any weakness at all.
Su Qi'an, who was sitting below, was a little surprised by the tit-for-tat confrontation between the two. You must know that half a year ago, although the relationship between the two was not harmonious, they did not openly break up and were always at odds with each other.
"Because of the situation they are in, a lot of things should have happened in Kyoto in the past six months." Su Qian secretly sighed in his heart.
