The next day, after Wu Yong and a group of people set off for Bianjing, in the North Study Room, Song Jiang looked at an exquisite map. Gongsun Sheng next to him introduced: "Brother, this time the conflict between the imperial court and Chu State is the conflict. It’s probably right here!!”
After Song Jiang took a closer look, he said seriously: "You mean Pengze Lake??"
"Yes, the Chu State now controls the Jiangnan East Road and the two Zhejiang areas, while a large number of state capitals such as Hongzhou to the west of Pengze Lake are still in the hands of the imperial court. When the Jiangnan uprising occurred, they were not moved. That is because these state capitals cannot be The population and trade are far inferior to those of Suzhou and Hangzhou, but as the saying goes, there is no room for others to sleep soundly on the side of the couch. Chu State definitely hopes to occupy the entire south of the Yangtze River, and the imperial court will not allow Chu State to become so big."
"Officials from top to bottom of the Chu State hated the wealthy families, and their methods were too ruthless at first. According to Xu Fu's report, Hongzhou, with the help of the major families, had formed a force of 30,000 people and hundreds of ships. The warships were swimming in Pengze Lake, and they were determined to resist. In addition, Han Shizhong defeated the Chu State three times some time ago, and his troops overwhelmed Su and Hangzhou. Therefore, the focus of this competition is Pengze Lake, or Hongzhou, which the Chu State won. Hongzhou, even if we don’t take action for the time being, we will unify the south of the Yangtze River sooner or later!!”
"If the imperial court controls Hongzhou, it will be difficult for Chu State to develop further in a short period of time."
Song Jiang nodded, "This is indeed a very critical position. There are many waterways in the south of the Yangtze River. If you guard Pengze Lake, you can mobilize military aircraft at will. It seems that this negotiation will not be easy!!"
"Last night I had a long chat with the military advisor. With people like Zongze here, the Hongzhou court will never give it. If it is given, it will mean giving up the entire south of the Yangtze River. However, we can suggest that Fuzhou be given to the Chu State, which can be regarded as a gift. "Stairs" Gongsun Shengdao,
"Fuzhou" Song Jiang looked at it and shook his head and said: "Fuzhou is already poor. Even if the court doesn't give it, Chu State can easily win it. I'm afraid it won't be enough!!"
"I think at this time we can only offset Chu's desire for Hongzhou in quantity. If it doesn't work, we can give away Quanzhou and Liuqiu."
"Liuqiu!!" Gongsun Sheng was stunned and said with a wry smile: "Your Majesty, this Liuqiu is a deserted land. To be honest, I don't even know if there are any people of the Song Dynasty on it!!"
"What a desolate land, this is a treasure island," Song Jiang said casually.
"Huh??" Gongsun Sheng was stunned.
Song Jiang saw it and immediately reacted, "I mean, even though Liuqiu has no development now, it is still an excellent overseas territory for Chu State. Its area is not small. Chu State Don’t be too greedy this time!!”
After hearing this, Gongsun Sheng nodded.
Song Jiang looked at Liuqiu's position and couldn't help but touch it lightly. This place had not come back when he traveled through time! !
When Gongsun Sheng saw this scene, his face was filled with confusion. Why did his brother value this deserted island so much?
"Your Majesty" At this moment, Wang Su walked in.
"What's up??"
"The queen asks you to come over and say that she has found a good match for the seventh girl!!" Wang Su replied,
After Song Jiang nodded, he suddenly turned around and said, "Who are you telling this to??"
"Seven Girls"
Song Jiang's expression changed and he immediately walked outside.
"Right Prime Minister, what did I say wrong?" Wang Su said in confusion.
"You idiot, this seventh girl from the Tan family is beautiful and talented. She is in the palace every day. Apart from being the future princess, will she have any other good matches?" Gongsun Sheng rolled his eyes.
"Ah...then??"
"How smart the queen is, she probably already knows this. She told it to the king on purpose, so that the king can show her attitude." Gongsun Sheng smiled bitterly, looked at the stunned Wang Su, shook his head and said, "Why don't you follow up?"
"Oh, oh, okay!" Wang Su ran out quickly.
After Gongsun Sheng shook his head, he looked at the map again. He didn't want to get involved in the affairs of Songjiang's back court, and he couldn't get involved. In addition to the seventh lady of the Tan family, there were also Sai Diaochan and several women outside. The so-called If a man is rich, he will be romantic, not to mention Song Jiang, a world hero and the king of a country.
. . . . .
Two days later, the Qi State sent its left prime minister Wu Yong as an envoy to Bianjing in person to thank Zhao Ji in person.
"Okay, okay, it seems that King Qi still has intentions for the court, and my efforts are not in vain." Zhao Ji said happily in Chui Gong Hall. Originally, he was a little worried that Song Jiang would disagree, but instead he sent the left prime minister directly.
"This is all due to the benevolence of the officials. I heard that Wu Yong, the left prime minister, was nicknamed Zhiduoxing in Jingdong. He was the earliest official of the King of Qi. He followed the King of Qi all the way to the present and is responsible for the six departments of Qi. He was responsible for the three departments of household affairs, household affairs, and rites. In addition, he also held the Chongwen Academy established by Qi State. Almost half of the officials in Qi State were his disciples. His status was so high that almost no one in the civil and military circles in Qi State could match him. King Qi let Prime Minister Wu came here in person, which shows his sincerity," Liang Shicheng said with a smile.
"What Lieutenant Liang said is true, and what he said is also very clear. Prime Minister Wu came here this time for the purpose of negotiating between the imperial court and the Chu State. With Prime Minister Wu here, the situation can be stabilized, otherwise the talks will easily fail. This The details of the negotiations submitted by Lu Zhongshu and others for a while did not need to be seen by the Chu State, and even the ministers would not agree. According to their thinking, the Chu State was tantamount to surrendering directly. Zonggong was also very dissatisfied with this and asked him to understand the current situation. Reality," Zhao Huan next to him said with a bitter smile.
"The prince is wise. The King of Qi is probably worried about this situation, so he sent Wu Xiang. Therefore, I think that this time the marriage must be paid special attention to, and absolutely no mistakes can be made. The court does not need Wu Xiang's direct help, but as long as it does not favor Chu The Chu Kingdom is a great joy to the imperial court. Currently, the Chu Kingdom occupies the Jiangnan East Road and the two Zhejiang areas, but Hongzhou and Fuzhou in the west of Jiangnan are still in the hands of the imperial court."
"Especially Hongzhou, that can never be lost again."
When Zhao Ji heard this, he nodded, "You're right. In addition, the emperors and concubines are all my daughters. I also hope that they can be happy. After all, they are marrying into the Qi Kingdom. If they are too naughty or naughty, I even want to protect them. I can’t protect him anymore. Besides, I also like Shaoyang very much. I also hope that my husband and wife will be of the same mind and grow old together, so I have to be careful when choosing someone.”
"Has the queen made a decision yet?"
"For the official family, the Queen has chosen three people, one is Emperor Ji Shoushu, one is Emperor Ji Huishu, and the other is Emperor Ji Xunde."
When Zhao Huan heard this, he was a little surprised and said: "Shou Shu's health has not been very good. Isn't it inappropriate?"
"Shou Shu Diji is indeed not in good health, but she is marrying into the Qi Kingdom this time. Shoushu Diji was born to the Empress. The Empress wants to set an example, but which one it is, of course. Official decision is needed!!" Liang Shicheng said.
Zhao Ji looked at it, shook his head and said: "I have made the decision on other marriages, but this time I still hope that they can be truly satisfied. I want them to meet Shaoyang separately."
"The official is so kind and wants to marry the Emperor Ji. How can it be left to Shaoyang to choose and tarnish the dignity of the Emperor Ji?" Liang Shicheng said immediately after hearing this.
After Zhao Ji frowned, Zhao Huan smiled and said: "Since my father wants to be willing, I thought it would be better to ask the three sisters for their opinions first. If you really don't want to, then there is no need to meet."
When Zhao Ji heard this, he nodded and said, "You and the queen will be responsible for this matter."
"Yes, Father!!"
"In addition, Qi State has sent a left prime minister. The court must not be rude. When the time comes, the prince will be welcomed in person."
"yes!!"
