The special envoy raised his glass and took a sip hesitantly. It was the first time for him to drink this early in the morning.
"Your concubine, why don't you tell us what we have in common?"
Zi Yan smiled: "Isn't that clear? Xue'er is the one who makes your Tianchi country feel ashamed, and Xue'er is the one who makes me feel invisible in the palace. This is our common goal."
"You mean, you want me to cooperate with you and kill Xue'er? If this is not done well, our Tianchi Congress will be destroyed!"
If Xue'er can't be killed, Yan Li pursues and fights fiercely, and finds out that Ziyan and the special envoy are colluding. Yan Li will definitely turn his anger on Tianchi Kingdom, thinking that the king of Tianchi Kingdom knows about this, and then send troops to attack Tianchi Kingdom. The national strength of the Tianchi country is not at the same level as that of the Great Jing country, how can it withstand the hundreds of thousands of troops of the Great Jing country!
Zi Yan could see through the special envoy's thoughts at a glance.
"We want to kill Xue'er, but we don't use that method of assassination..."
The special envoy looked at Ziyan suspiciously: "Then is there any other way to kill Xue'er?"
Zi Yan smiled, looking confident.
"Master Special Envoy, have you read "Hanshu"?"
"Hanshu" is the national book of the Great Jing Kingdom, and ordinary foreigners cannot see this kind of book. Only when the emperor of the Great Jing Kingdom bestowed it on foreign monarchs, foreign monarchs are lucky enough to read this book. However, the special envoy has been in Dajing country for some time, and studying in the Imperial College, learning the advanced culture of Dajing country, will naturally touch the "Han Shu".
Special envoy: "In the Imperial College, I have roughly seen it."
Zi Yan: "Since the special envoy has read this book, he naturally knows about Emperor Han Jing's Wu-Chu Rebellion. In order to oppose Chao Cuo's plan to cut down feudal vassals, Wu and Chu joined forces and marched westward, demanding that Emperor Han Jing kill Chao Cuo. On the side of Emperor Qing. Under pressure, Emperor Jing of the Han had to behead Chao Cuo in the market. There are always striking similarities in history. Our current situation is almost exactly the same as that of Wu Guochu at that time... "
The special envoy finally understood what Zi Yan meant: "You want to rebel and force the emperor to kill Xue'er?"
Ziyan stretched out a red crisp hand and shook it in front of her face: "It's not me who wants to rebel, it's your Tianchi country..."
The special envoy jumped up again this time, his eyes widened, and he clenched his fists: he had indeed written a letter to the king of Tianchi, asking the king of Tianchi to send troops to attack the border of Dajing, and Xue Yanli wanted to send Zi The shame of Xuan returning home. This matter is so confidential, how could Ziyan know
"Your concubine, you are framing our Tianchi country!"
Seeing the special envoy curling up her fist, Zi Yan didn't feel scared, because she knew that the special envoy would be very interested in her next question.
"Special envoys, don't be nervous. Think about it, if you can send troops and directly shout the slogan of killing Xue'er, the emperor has no choice but to kill Xue'er to quell the war in order to prevent the people from being displaced. Once Xue'er dies, you can avenge your shame, Have you given an explanation to your common people?"
The special envoy smiled darkly: "Actually, what you value is not whether our Tianchi country can avenge its shame. You mainly want to borrow a knife to kill people, don't you? Lend our Tianchi country to kill your rival Xueer. Hehe, noble concubine, your The scheme is really insidious!"
Ziyan: "I am not only doing it for myself, but also for the world of Dajing Kingdom. If such a woman stays in the palace, the country will be in chaos. It will be a matter of time. I get what I want, and you will get what you want too." If you want it, why not do it!"
The special envoy snorted coldly, and took a sip of wine: "If you use it as a tool to grab benefits, I won't do it! The Dajing Kingdom is so powerful and its military is so powerful. If our Tianchi Kingdom wants to commit crimes, it will be asking for trouble."
Zi Yan smiled, and the smile was so relaxed: "The special envoy is too worried! I can guarantee that when you violate the border, the Dajing Kingdom will never send a single soldier to resist."
The special envoy heard that there was something in Ziyan's words, and this was what he was most concerned about: "The Northern Army is so strong and has many experiences in countering rebellion, how could it not resist? I'm afraid that we will be defeated as soon as we touch the Northern Army." .”
Zi Yan stretched out her orchid fingers, scooped a spoonful of lotus seed soup, put it into the small mouth of the cherry, bit it slowly, and then said after falling behind: "The special envoy knows who the commander-in-chief of the Northern Army is now? It's not the old Rong Chang'an."
The special envoy looked worried: "As far as I know, the commander-in-chief of the Northern Army is Lord Chu..."
Zi Yan: "Master Chu is mine, and if I tell him not to resist, he will not resist."
The special envoy was still skeptical: "Queen Chu is his daughter, how could he allow us to invade the border instead of sending troops to resist?"
Zi Yan didn't want to tell the special envoy about the entanglement between Chu Lin, Rong Chang'an and Xue'er, because the story was too long.
"Anyway, don't worry, Master Chu will definitely not send troops. At that time, your army will drive straight in, the court will panic, and the people will panic. In unavoidable circumstances, the emperor may not only kill Xue'er, but also cede land to you for compensation! Don't you To avenge my shame and gain benefits, why not do it?"
If Chu Lin's northern army could really watch Tianchi's army march straight in without being moved, of course they could get what they wanted.
The special envoy folded his hands behind his back and paced hesitantly. The steps are sometimes fast and sometimes slow, which is a symbol of his inner worries. Suddenly, he looked at Zi Yan suspiciously:
"I'm afraid, what you want is not just Xue'er's head, is it?"
Ziyan said mysteriously: "Of course, what I want is not just Xue'er's head, but it's none of your business. Anyway, I have already analyzed the stakes for you clearly. It's up to you to decide whether to do it or not. I My suggestion is that you go back to the post house and write a letter immediately, and give it to your king, telling him about the inhuman treatment Zixuan received. He loves his daughter dearly, and he must be furious when he learns that Zixuan lives like this in Dajing Kingdom In anger, he swung his troops south. My lord special envoy agrees with your great achievements, and you will definitely be granted the title of Marquis and Prime Minister after you return. If it’s not good, the king will give you half of the country, which is worthy of your brother.”
This special envoy of the Tianchi Kingdom is the nephew of the king of the Tianchi Kingdom, and legally, he is also capable of inheriting the throne. Ziyan's words were so provocative that the special envoy couldn't help drooling. In his mind, the image of himself wearing a yellow robe and fighting against the king of Tianchi Kingdom had already appeared in his mind.
A greedy smile curved his lips.
"Your concubine is right. I will write a letter to the king as soon as I return to the posthouse, asking him to attack the side immediately. I hope that the concubine can fulfill her promise and prevent the northern army from resisting. Besides, if the concubine kills Xueer, I still hope you Can persuade the emperor to continue to conclude a brotherly covenant with our Tianchi country."
The special envoy had agreed, and Zi Yan smiled with two rows of white teeth. She came over and took the envoy's hand.
"Let's drink the covenant wine. If I break the agreement, I will die!"
If the Tianchi Kingdom can really send troops, the Northern Army gives up resistance, and the country is in turmoil, then Li Hao will take the opportunity to rebel. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. How could Ziyan break his promise! She just wanted it.
Chong Chong Chong, filled two glasses of hot wine, one for each person. There was only a crisp sound, and two Dingzhou white porcelain cups knocked together, the wine in the cups swayed, and the aroma of the wine came to the nostrils...
The envoy returned to the post house and immediately wrote a letter. This letter is more intense than the previous one. It embellishes Zixuan's experience with embellishments. It must arouse the love of the king of Tianchi Kingdom, arouse his anger, and make him impatient. Send troops immediately. In the letter, it also detailed several favorable conditions for sending troops, such as having internal support, for example, the Northern Army would not send troops to resist, and so on.
The special envoy's bodyguard rushed back to the Tianchi Palace in two days and two nights, and handed the letter to the king who was standing on the balcony thinking about Zixuan.
The king had already read the special envoy's letter last time, and he was naturally angry with Yan Li for sending his daughter back to Tianchi Kingdom, and wanted to send troops to attack the border of Dajing Kingdom more than once. But when he thought about the huge disparity in strength between the two countries, the people of Tianchi would suffer the most if they fought. That's why the king kept suppressing his grief and indignation, and did not take any action for a long time.
