The day after Jiang Yunqing left, the whole Jiangdu exploded. Is there any news in Jiangdu these days that is more shocking than the fact that Wu Wanggong was killed by an assassin? I don't think so.
However, this matter was ultimately related to King Wu, so although this matter was widely circulated, it was only spread among the upper class circles of Jiangdu.
Occasionally, if something spreads to the lower levels, it is simply dismissed as a story or joke.
Yang Pu caught a cold last night and contracted wind-chill. However, he did not rest and recuperate. Instead, he held an emergency meeting and ordered Liu Wei to be a general. He led his troops to join forces with Yingzhou soldiers and horses to attack Haozhou and Suzhou.
On the third day, under Yang Pu's repeated urging, Liu Wei organized his troops and set off for the expedition.
At this time, Jiang Yunqing chartered a carriage and took Princess Shangyao away from Jiangdu.
During this period, many levels were searched for traces of Jiang Yunqing and Princess Shangyao, but Jiang Yunqing was able to deal with them all. Those who really couldn't handle it could just use Wushuang and sneak past "quietly".
Seven days later, the troops of Wu State arrived at Haozhou City and formally declared war on Liang State.
At this time, Jiang Yunqing had also come to Chu State and met Chu King Ma Yin.
The character model Jiang Yunqing created for Ma Yin was a bandit leader. Even though this bandit leader was very smart, he could not change his bandit spirit. As soon as he entered the Chu Kingdom, Jiang Yunqing could smell the bandit spirit all over the country.
Jiang Yunqing also had his own countermeasures for this.
Bandits naturally have to be bandits in order to have a common language, so Jiang Yunqing met Ma Yin with a strong sense of banditry.
It's not like Jiang Yunqing directly stated his intention to come when he met Wu King Yangpu and Ma Yin.
Ma Yin was not like Yang Pu. He didn't hesitate at all and rejected Jiang Yunqing directly. He said frankly that he couldn't beat Zhu Youzhen, a bastard!
Zhu Youzhen sent an army of 300,000 troops to attack the Qi Kingdom. The purpose was to kill the chicken to scare the monkeys. If anyone dared to jump out and cause trouble at this time, anyone might become the chicken to be killed instead of the Qi Kingdom.
Anyone who is not as strong as Liang Guo, as long as they have a normal mind, will not choose to jump out at this time. At least they will have to wait until Liang Guo and Qi Guo are almost at the same level before pulling some skin from Liang Guo.
However, when Jiang Yunqing said that Jin and Wu had sent troops to attack Liang, Ma Yin's attitude immediately changed. Without saying whether he was willing to send troops, he directly discussed with Jiang Yunqing how to divide the territory.
As for bandits, communication is direct, without so many twists and turns. If you explain the matter clearly and the benefits clearly, the matter is settled.
After learning that Jiang Yunqing had kidnapped King Wu Yangpu's daughter, Princess Shangyao, and coerced King Wu to send troops, Ma Yin even bluntly said that Jiang Yunqing had the same demeanor as he did back then.
After defeating the Kingdom of Chu, Jiang Yunqing once again took Princess Shangyao to the border of Shu.
The relationship between the Shu Kingdom and the Qi Kingdom is just like the previous relationship between the Liang Kingdom and the Jin Kingdom. There are no major conflicts, but a lot of small frictions. If there are any big grudges or resentments, there must be no such thing, but the border issues Some minor conflicts were almost never resolved.
Although there were some minor conflicts between the two countries, Meng Zhixiang still received Jiang Yunqing, the envoy from Qi State, politely.
Facing Meng Zhixiang, Jiang Yunqing did not use the same weird and clever tricks as he had used to deal with the previous ones. Instead, he went on a serious mission. As an envoy, he described the current situation of the world to Meng Zhixiang and jointly defeated Liang. request.
Meng Zhixiang did not give Jiang Yunqing an immediate reply. This time, Jiang Yunqing did not use dangerous tactics as he did against Yang Pu. Instead, he asked Princess Shangyao to see Concubine Li Guifei and gave her medicine to regulate her body, as well as Beauty elixir for beauty and beauty.
After being tested by the Shu State Hospital and personally tried by Concubine Li under the guidance of Princess Shangyao, she was quite happy and lamented the magic of the beauty pill, and gave many gifts in return to Princess Shangyao, and Princess Shangyao It was just mentioned that this medicine came from a miraculous doctor from the Qi Kingdom.
The next day, after Meng Zhixiang, the king of Shu, held a court meeting, he seriously discussed with the courtiers the issue of attacking Liang proposed by the Qi envoy. There were mixed opinions in the court, and finally the king of Shu, Meng Zhixiang, made the final decision and decided to send troops to attack Liang. .
The will of the opposition was not very strong. After Meng Zhixiang made the decision, they did not jump out to insist on opposition.
After deciding on a series of matters about sending troops to conquer Liang, Meng Zhixiang hosted a separate banquet for Jiang Yunqing. At the banquet, Meng Zhixiang asked Jiang Yunqing who the miraculous medical master of Qi State who developed the beauty pill was.
Jiang Yunqing reported the name of Mr. Shen without hesitation. What he didn't expect was that Mr. Shen's name was quite famous. Meng Zhixiang actually knew that Mr. Shen was such a famous person, and he knew that the beauty pill came from Mr. Shen. Hands convinced.
Meng Zhixiang tactfully mentioned that he wanted to order a batch of beauty elixirs for his beloved concubine, and after getting Jiang Yunqing's consent, the banquet was considered a feast for the guests and the host.
The next day, Jiang Yunqing resigned. After Meng Zhixiang politely persuaded him to stay, he sent a heavy gift and prepared his handwriting to see Jiang Yunqing off.
From then on, all Jiang Yunqing's chess pieces were in place, waiting quietly for Liang Guozi to fall, waiting for the time to move.
On the way back to Qi Kingdom, Princess Shangyao got out of the carriage unwilling to be alone, sat on the carriage next to Jiang Yunqing, and chatted with Jiang Yunqing.
"You can't be so cold-faced to me anymore. You succeeded in persuading the King of Shu to send troops this time, but I have a share of the credit!"
Princess Shangyao blinked her big watery eyes and asked Jiang Yunqing for credit.
"Well, it's all thanks to you!"
Jiang Yunqing nodded undeniably. Without Princess Shang Yao, he would not have had indirect contact with Concubine Li Guifei, and naturally there would be no such thing as pillow sex.
Although Jiang Yunqing was certain that even without this link, Meng Zhixiang would still agree to send troops in the end, but having an extra layer of protection would not be a bad thing. Jiang Yunqing then arranged for Princess Shangyao to visit Concubine Li.
"Then don't be so cold-faced to me!"
Princess Shang Yao puffed out her cheeks and said angrily.
Girl, I was not like this originally. I was afraid that you would fall!
Jiang Yunqing thought so in her heart, but there was nothing more to say, and she didn't pay attention to Princess Yao anymore.
Although Princess Shangyao is petite, beautiful, silly and very cute, she really doesn't like this!
"Hmph, you white-eyed wolf, I want my father to withdraw his troops and not help you fight against Liang Kingdom. I will make you so angry!"
Seeing that Jiang Yunqing was ignoring her again, Princess Shangyao hugged her chest angrily and turned away.
The girl's mind is very innocent, and innocence is like a blank piece of paper that should not appear in troubled times, because Yang Pu protects this blank piece of paper so well that it is not tainted with the color of the world at all.
But suddenly, something happened on the road ahead, and Jiang Yunqing had to stop the carriage.
It was a woman wearing the costume of the Miao ethnic minority in Raojiang. She was asking an old man something in the middle of the road, and happened to block Jiang Yunqing's way.
