Han Yuzhou's face changed, but he still said calmly, "I can't understand what you are talking about."
Song Qingshu smiled faintly: "Since Mr. Han said he didn't understand, I might as well speak more clearly."
Without waiting for Han Tuozhou's response, he continued: "Mr. Han's trip was extremely confidential, but he was assassinated several times on the way. In the end, Linghu Wu Tiande happened to pass by to save you. Who ordered those killers? Prime Minister Han knows it well."
Song Qingshu knew a lot about their encounters on the road from Cheng Yaojia and Lu Guanying, so he immediately hit Han Tuozhou's weakness.
"Maybe it's just a group of Jianghu people who are blind and want to steal money and get goods." Although he had a rough guess in his heart, Han Tuozhou still didn't want to reveal his true thoughts to outsiders easily.
"Really?" Song Qingshu smiled noncommittally, "Some time ago, Prime Minister Han accidentally fell into the hands of the Ruyang Palace, so he should also know that people from the White Lotus Sect came to attack Yuqing Temple, right?"
"I know." Han Yuzhou replied blankly.
"As far as I know, the White Lotus Sect and Han Xiang have always been at odds, so they didn't come here to save you, did they?" Song Qingshu sighed deliberately, "Speaking of which, the Ruyang Palace also suffered a disaster for no reason. Fighting with the White Lotus Sect, even though the White Lotus Sect was repelled, the damage was heavy, otherwise it wouldn't be so embarrassing by the Songshan Sect this time."
Han Yuzhou's eyes flickered, and he didn't know what he was thinking.
Song Qingshu went on to say: "Speaking of Ruyang Palace, it is really unlucky. First, it helped Prime Minister Han block the White Lotus Sect, and this time it blocked the Songshan Sect for you."
Han Yuzhou was finally moved: "Didn't the Songshan School come for Wu Tiande?" Although he didn't know what attracted him to Wu Tiande, Zuo Lengchan of the Songshan School had already said it himself just now, which obviously didn't look like a fake.
"That's right, the Songshan faction came here for Wu Tiande," Song Qingshu changed the subject, "Someone told the Songshan faction that the long-lost Evil Resisting Sword Manual was on that Wu Tiande, which attracted Zuo Lengchan to come out in full force this time."
"Evil Resisting Sword Manual?" Han Yuzhou's face showed a strange expression. Although he lived in the temple for a long time, he had heard of its name vaguely, and knew that it was a very precious martial arts book.
"Han Xiang is not a member of the rivers and lakes. He may not understand Zuo Lengchan's behavior. On the surface, he is one of the decent leaders, but in fact he is cruel and ruthless. He has also secretly made friends with many mafia masters, such as the Baiban evil star who came this time, Qinghai Yixiao and Hejian Shuangsha are both well-known devils in the underworld. In order to maintain his positive image, every time he does something bad, he adheres to the principle of "doing one thing and not doing two things endlessly", and will silence all witnesses. Therefore, although many people in Jianghu know that Zuo Lengchan has done bad things, they suffer from lack of evidence."
Noticing the change in Han Tuozhou's face, Song Qingshu knew that with the other party's knowledge, he probably already knew what was going on: "This time, after the people from the Songshan School entered the Yuqing Temple, they would kill anyone they saw. If it weren't for the Ruyang Palace People blocking it, Han Xiang thinks he can survive?"
"Good job, Jia Shixian!" Han Yuzhou finally couldn't bear it anymore, and slapped the table heavily. The two had been fighting for so many years, how could he not see who was responsible for such a vicious murder with a borrowed knife.
"I'm afraid you didn't ask me to come here specifically to talk about this." Han Tuozhou calmed down, raised his head and stared closely at the young man in front of him.
Song Qingshu nodded: "That's right, I asked Prime Minister Han to come in because I wanted to make a deal with him."
"What deal?" Han Yuzhou frowned.
"Han Xiang must also be aware of his current situation. There are still several forces in the court who hope that Han Xiang will never go back." Song Qingshu paused and waited for Han Yuzhou to reflect carefully before continuing, "During this time, Li Kexiu has agreed. Returning to the Golden Snake Camp, as long as Prime Minister Han approves this relationship on behalf of the Southern Song court, I will allow Prime Minister Han to return to Lin'an City safely!"
Han Tuozhou was immediately moved. Ever since he was captured by the Mongols, he knew that he might never have a chance to win Li Kexiu this time. Now his primary goal has changed from winning Li Kexiu to getting out safely.
As for Li Kexiu's influence, as long as it does not fall into the hands of any of the Jin, Qing, and Mongol forces, the Southern Song Dynasty can actually accept it.
Although there are already 10,000 consents in his heart, how can an old political fox like Han Yuzhou let go so easily, and deliberately snorted: "This time, the old man has not only failed to achieve an inch of success, but also lost his troops. When the time comes, he will return to Lin'an in despair. How can people like Jia Shixian let go of such a good opportunity at that time? Once they criticize this trip to Yangzhou, I am afraid that my resignation will be a foregone conclusion. Rather than falling into that bleak ending, it is better to die for the country in Yangzhou. I can leave behind my name!"
Hearing Han Yuzhou's impassioned statement, Song Qingshu secretly laughed. How could he be deceived by these superficial words now? appetite:
"Han Xiang has worried too much. I have a way to make Han Xiang return to the Southern Song Dynasty in a prosperous manner. Not only will he not be criticized by his political opponents, but he will also be in the limelight for a while and become a hero of the country."
Han Yuzhou was very curious, but still looked at him suspiciously: "What can you do?"
Song Qingshu didn't answer directly, but instead asked: "Dare to ask Prime Minister Han, who is more important in Jianghuai than in Sichuan?"
"Of course it's Sichuan!" Han Yuzhou blurted out that Sichuan, the land of abundance, could provide nearly one-third of the taxes of the Southern Song court at the beginning, and Sichuan was also the western barrier of the Southern Song court. When Sichuan was captured by Mongolia, the entire Southern Song court was shocked, and finally the whole country was raised. With the help of his strength, coupled with the talents of Yu Jie and Wang Jian, he barely blocked the front of the Mongolian soldiers on the front line of Diaoyu City.
However, without Sichuan, the Southern Song Dynasty lost its western barrier. Mongolia could not only advance eastward, but also bypass Guizhou to approach the hinterland of the two lakes, and even use Dali to attack the rear areas of Guangdong and Guangxi. Fortification consumes huge manpower and material resources, and there is still a sword of Damocles hanging above the head, making the Southern Song Dynasty monarchs and ministers restless.
If Sichuan is in hand, the Southern Song Dynasty will be able to retreat the defense line to Jiange Yangping Pass. Sichuan has always been easy to defend and difficult to attack. At that time, the pressure on the Southern Song Dynasty will be greatly reduced. The stretched finances of the Southern Song Dynasty eased.
"What if I can persuade Mongolia to return Sichuan to you?" Song Qingshu smiled inscrutablely.
"How is this possible!" Han Yuzhou stood up in shock, noticing that Song Qingshu didn't seem to be joking, and immediately reacted, "As long as your Excellency can facilitate this, I guarantee that the court will recognize the rights and interests of the Jinsnake Camp in the Jianghuai land, and both parties You can also sign a non-aggression agreement, and at the same time, I will invite the emperor to formally confer your title as King of Qi!"
Towards the end of the month, the monthly ticket ranks 20th, and is in a state of being exploded at any time. I have lingering fears about the tragedy of being overtaken by someone behind in the last five minutes after ranking 20th last time.
I really don’t want to repeat the same mistakes, so the monk here has the audacity to ask for a monthly pass. I will update at least 7 chapters today and tomorrow to repay everyone
