For several days, Wei State did not take any measures against Xu Jiao.

Xu Jiao herself had communicated with Wei ministers about border issues, but even with her clever mind, she could hardly be a match for Zhuge Liang and others.

Whenever I want to talk about this matter, I will be dealt with by the clever language skills of Zhuge Liang and others.

The border issue between Wei and Liang has not been resolved for a long time. In fact, it is a matter that both countries have a clear understanding of. The reason why Liang wants to drag out the border issue is to express its position and participate in the four countries' actions to check and balance Wei.

The main reason why Wei suddenly doesn't want to solve the problem is Xu Jiao. They all need to start with Xu Jiao and find out the whereabouts of the mysterious force.

Zhuge Liang received the emperor's order to let Xu Jiao stay in Luoyang for as long as possible. Of course, if possible, Zhao Changqing even wanted her to never return to Liang Kingdom.

On this day, Zhao Changqing, who had nothing to do, once again came to the small river outside Luoyang City to fish.

He asked the eunuchs around him to inform Xu Jiao, the envoy from the Liang Kingdom, that he was here.

Beside Zhao Changqing, there is Jian Yi and Zhao Yun.

Jianyi acted as a guard and stood beside Zhao Changqing without saying a word.

Zhao Yun, on the other hand, sat fishing with Zhao Changqing.

Now Zhao Yun has hardly experienced a war for a long time. His main energy now is on training the soldiers of the three armies.

This task is no easier than leading troops in war.

This was also a choice Zhao Changqing made after careful decision-making.

At present, Chen Qingzhi, Xiao Yuming, Yue Fei and others are all unanimously facing the outside world. The remaining Jianyi, Zhao Yun and others must sit in charge of the country and maintain internal balance.

As an old man who follows him, Zhao Yun has a high prestige both in the court and in the military. It is the best thing to have him by his side to help him stabilize various possible emergencies in the country.

.

It is precisely because of his decision that a saying spread among the people.

It’s called ‘The Five Tiger Generals of Flowing Water and the Iron-Strike Zhao Zilong.’

This means that no matter how the Five Tigers change, Zhao Yun will always be reused by the emperor.

Xu Jiao walked to Zhao Changqing's back, bowed and said: "Xu Jiao, the envoy of the Liang Kingdom, pays homage to His Majesty the Emperor of the Wei Kingdom."

Zhao Changqing held the pole in one hand and waved it towards her with the other hand, indicating that she did not need to be restrained, and then stared at the river without moving.

Xu Jiao knew the details of fishing and did not dare to disturb her, so she stood quietly behind her.

After a while, a fish suddenly got hooked. Zhao Changqing pulled hard and threw the hooked carp to the river. Someone picked it up and put it in the fish cage.

Seeing this, Xu Jiao quickly said: "It is rumored that His Majesty the Emperor of Wei likes fishing. Within a month, at least half of the month is spent fishing."

Zhao Changqing smiled and said: "Those are all rumors. I just come here to fish when I feel bored sometimes. When I stay in the palace on weekdays, I often feel depressed, so I think of fishing as an excuse.

, just come out and get some air."

Xu Jiao grinned broadly and said, "Your Majesty is indeed a man of great temperament."

Zhao Changqing smiled and said nothing.

Xu Jiao looked at the man sitting next to Zhao Changqing. He was quite heroic and upright, making people look up to him and felt that he was a big shot.

So he asked: "I wonder who this is?"

Before Zhao Changqing could introduce him, Zhao Yun paid attention to the movement in the creek and said calmly: "Zhao Yun."

Xu Jiao was slightly surprised and quickly bowed and said: "It turns out to be General Zhao Yunzhao who is full of courage. Thank you for meeting him."

She knew that Zhao Yun was an extremely dangerous person.

Before leaving as an envoy, I heard Prime Minister Li Yijun talk about the civil servants and generals in the Wei Kingdom. Among them, Zhao Yun was highly praised, saying that he was an ever-victorious general.

Anyone who can receive such praise from Li Yijun is definitely not an ordinary person and needs to be dealt with carefully.

Zhao Yun said: "Your Majesty, there is no need to be polite. Zhao is just your Majesty's companion today."

Xu Jiao frowned, listening to the implication, came here today mainly for herself?

Before Xu Jiao could speak, Zhao Changqing said to her: "I know that you have been busy recently and are busy working on the border issues between the two countries, but to put it straight to the point, if you want to solve the border issues, the focus is not on Wei Lianger.

country."

Xu Jiao's main purpose here is to make Wei Guo bow to Liang Guo, and then take this opportunity to test Wei Guo's bottom line.

In fact, none of them noticed that Wei Guo had stated his bottom line more than once.

That means no reconciliation, no compensation, and no cession of territory.

This is the bottom line of the Great Wei State.

Xu Jiao didn't understand what Emperor Wei meant and asked, "Why is this?"

Zhao Changqing said: "Without the leading role of Song and Tang, I think your Liang Kingdom would not have done this. To put it bluntly, the border issue is your fault. After you go back today, you can write a letter

One letter told Xu Fengyun that the border conflict should be reduced to a major issue and be dismissed as a trivial matter. Otherwise, if the stalemate continues, it will be of no benefit to anyone."

Xu Jiao also got straight to the point: "Since Your Majesty knows the ins and outs of the whole matter, why do you still send envoys to our Liang Kingdom?"

Zhao Changqing said: "I did that just to give you Liang Guo a chance. So far, Duan Guo's intentions are unclear, and Song's economic sanctions specifically targeted at Wei this time have not had much effect. On the contrary, they themselves

The losses were heavy. As for the Tang State, it was completely intimidated by the 600,000-strong army of the Wei State. You said that the Four Kingdoms Alliance is now in name only, and you really don’t want to think about changing camps? Maybe, Wei Liangliang will become the most solid ally?

"

Xu Jiao smiled and said: "Everyone with lofty ideals in the world knows that Your Majesty wants to unify the world. Even if Liang and Wei stand together today, I am afraid that in a few years, the country will still be destroyed."

A situation of death, right?”

Zhao Changqing shook his head and said: "Nowadays, countries are frequently fighting each other. How to survive better in the cracks is a question that you, the Liang Kingdom, should consider. If you stand with the Wei Kingdom, I cannot guarantee anything else. The only one I dare to

What is guaranteed is that it will quickly raise the overall strength of your Liang Kingdom to a higher level."

Xu Jiao said: "These things are beyond the control of a little girl like me. However, I once heard a saying. Would your Majesty want to hear it?"

Zhao Changqing said curiously: "Tell me and listen."

Xu Jiao said: "A hunter is never afraid of raising his prey. That can only be a good thing for him."

Zhao Changqing smiled and said: "I like fishing because my country's national master Xuan Lingzi likes fishing. During the time when I was consecrating Zen in Mount Tai, whenever I was bored, I would go fishing with him. He

Fishing is very strange. He never uses a fishhook. I have never seen him catch a fish. Once, I asked him, how can you fish without a hook? He said, those who are willing to take the bait. In fact, the same is true for family and country affairs. Which one is less important?

What's more important, you Liang Kingdom should really think about it, and don't underestimate the ambition of this Tang Emperor, his ambition is no less than mine."

Xu Jiao cupped her fists and said, "Teach me."

Zhao Changqing looked at the stream that was constantly making waves, and murmured: "Being an enemy of Wei will not end well."

Xu Jiao sighed: "If I had the choice, I would not want Liang to go against the talented Wei."
