Zhao Changqing knew Zhuge Liang's attitude and was snickering in his heart. It turned out that this wise man known as Wolong would also have an unexpected day.

It seems that in the future, if Zhuge Liang is to give up, he will have to give him a little more scares.

In fact, this method of employing people is similar to falling in love. You must not be too clingy or too loose. You must show that you don't need him. At the same time, you must act aloof from time to time. Only in this way will he often worry about gains and losses, and then

I am completely controlled by you.

Of course, everything must have a degree, and you can't overdo it.

Jia Xu, who was far away in Duanguo, was very surprised by the court's reply. He was considering whether to truthfully tell the truth about your Majesty's words to Emperor Duanguo, Changsun Ye.

Once you say this sentence, you need to carefully consider what kind of negative impact it will have.

After all, you are far away in a foreign country, and you will have to deal with the foreign monarch's orders. How to talk about it, and how to play the role of your envoy well, you still need to rely on yourself. The court's intention can only be used as a kind of auxiliary information for reference.

If the negotiation is successful, it is your own credit. If the negotiation is not successful, the court will definitely pass the blame.

After thinking for a long time, Jia Xu finally decided to tell Emperor Duan this sentence openly, and it had to be in public.

If you want to say it, then just say it in an earth-shattering way.

Let the world see the Wei people's bottom line.

By the way, I also forced Emperor Duan to understand the situation clearly.

Although the Wei State is facing a major disaster since Zhao Changqing ascended the throne, according to the Wei State's background, it is confident enough to survive.

What about then?

The Wei State is still the strongest power in this land, and other countries can only lag behind.

Two days passed.

Jia Xu, neither humble nor arrogant, conveyed Zhao Changqing's words to Emperor Duan in the Duanguo Zhenghe Hall in front of all the civil and military officials of the court.

At that time, Emperor Duan's face looked ugly.

It's about to happen.

But in a Duan country, there are still people who can keep their composure.

Lu Yan, the Minister of War of the Duan Kingdom, was such a man with extremely dark talents.

It was he who suppressed Emperor Duan's anger that was about to burst out, and then Xiaozhi stabilized Jia Xu with emotion and reason, and repeatedly warned that if a war broke out, it would be an unprecedented disaster, regardless of whether Duan Wei or Duan Wei.

This should be avoided as much as possible, whether between countries or between countries.

The words sounded nice, but it was nothing more than doing Tai Chi.

The next day, Jia Xu wrote a letter asking to see Emperor Duan, hoping that both parties could discuss some specific matters regarding the alliance.

Emperor Duan was furious and turned a blind eye to Jia Xu's intention.

Jia Xu relied on Duan Guo.

He wrote to Emperor Duan for several days in succession, but suddenly one day he did not see his letter. Emperor Duan became suspicious and sent someone to the envoy post to inquire about the situation.

As soon as the people sent by Emperor Duan arrived at the envoy post, they were stopped by a Wei minister and said, "I don't know what my father-in-law is here for?"

The eunuch said: "On behalf of Your Majesty, our family is here to see your envoys. How have you been eating and drinking lately?"

Wei Chen said calmly: "I don't need to worry about it, father-in-law."

The eunuch of Duan Guo nodded, then stretched out his head and looked inside the inn, as if he was looking for something.

Wei Chen smiled and said in a deep voice: "Eunuch, are you looking for Mr. Jia Xu?"

The eunuch nodded subconsciously, then showed an embarrassed smile.

Wei Chen stroked his beard with dignity and said with a smile: "Jia Xu, Lord Jia, went out of the city today to enjoy the scenery of your country. He probably won't be back until evening, but His Majesty the Emperor of your country asked the father-in-law to come and invite Lord Jia?"

The eunuch shook his head hurriedly, said something casually, and left.

After he returned to the palace, he told Emperor Duan about Jia Xu's outing.

The doubts in Emperor Duan's heart became even greater. What does this mean?

On the one hand, he was obviously still anxious to sign a contract with himself, but in the blink of an eye, he felt as if he had no worries anymore?

What about that anxious mentality before?

Jia Xu made full use of the means of falling in love and kept Emperor Duan's mind in check.

Because of Duan Guo's subtle attitude, Liang Guo fell into diplomatic passivity again.

It has been two full months since the border conflict, but this matter has not yet been alleviated or resolved.

Conflicts on the border are increasingly conflicting.

Huang Cheng was like a rogue, neither choosing to return to Beijing to resume his duties, nor having any communication with the officials of Liang State.

All in all, in one sentence, the delay will be delayed until the time when Wei State collects taxes.

It is certainly possible to collect taxes in advance, but we are afraid of civil unrest.

Jia Xu, who was in Duanguo, highly praised Huang Cheng's approach.

When Shen Wansan united with aristocratic families and famous merchants from all over the country to carry out economic countermeasures against the Song Dynasty and achieved initial results, Jia Xu began to expand his tactics.

In the past few days, he has had no contact with Emperor Duan.

People from all walks of life are also speculating on what is going on.

Tang Guo wanted to give himself a reassurance and sent envoys to Duan Guo.

It was this opportunity that Jia Xu was waiting for.

He began to bombard Duan Guo.

At the same time, the 600,000 troops gathered at the border were also cooperating with Jia Xu's actions.

And they never stopped doing anything, taking the initiative to carry out small-scale harassment to Duanguo's border.

Emperor Duan questioned Jia Xu in front of the civil and military officials of the court.

He was indifferent.

Finally, after being pressed one after another, Jia Xu said to Emperor Duan: "Do you think, with Wei's current strength, if a 600,000-strong army presses the border, how long can Duan's country be able to sustain it?"

Emperor Duan sneered and replied: "The four-nation coalition forces number no less than millions. Do you think how long your Wei army can resist?"

Jia Xu said: "Wei State has a vast territory and many soldiers and generals. Even if we fight to the last soldier, we will still be able to save an inch of territory. This is already the case with Wei State, but your Duan State is different. As one of the countries,

As the most vulnerable existence, does the emperor of your country really think that the other three countries have no intention of carving up your country?"

Jia Xu put his wealth and life on the line. He was in an enemy country and it took great courage to say these words.

It was expected that Emperor Duan would be furious.

At this moment, he even wanted to kill Jia Xu with one knife.

But as an emperor, he knew that he could not do this.

There is no reason for Wei to send troops.

He endured this tone and asked Jia Xu to retreat.

After Jia Xu left the palace, a few drops of imperceptible sweat appeared on his forehead.

Waving his sleeves, the sweat on his forehead was wiped away.

Then, it regained its glory.

After the envoys from the Tang Dynasty arrived in Duanguo, they gave Duanguo many benefits, such as some rare treasures or peerless beauties, etc.

This is a good thing no matter how you look at it.

But Jia Xu didn't think so. He pretended to be drunk in the streets of Duanguo's capital, and then openly said loudly: "The Tang Dynasty has a terrible heart. They want to confuse your emperor Duanguo, so they sent beauties and gold and silver."

Jewelry, however, you are still obsessed with these insignificant things, Duan Guo...it's over!"

This sentence allowed Emperor Duan to kill Jia Xu a hundred times.

But Emperor Duan still didn't dare to kill.

What Jia Xu did was very arrogant. It was like stretching his neck and waiting for him to chop him down. Just look at how angry he was as the Emperor of Duan Guo.

Now among the countries, I don’t know anything else, but one thing is definitely clear.

That is, the envoys of Wei State are definitely among the toughest envoys in all countries.
