The wind swept through the remaining clouds, and the clear sky was clear. Five airships roared across the sky, penetrated the portal of the cave sky, and landed on the vast wilderness of the cave sky. Then the pilots Sansheng and Nuwa, and the commander ordered five escaping lights to penetrate the sky. I was a little reluctant to take a look at the fairy ship, and I still had some unfinished thoughts.
As soon as they came out, Ye Qing greeted them with a smile: "Everyone, you are lucky."
"It's a small matter." Yuan Shi said with a smile and sighed in his heart: Now he has offended all the princes along the way, and he is tied to Qingmai's boat and cannot get off.
As the five airships galloped along the river, "accidental fires" along the way destroyed many hills. The surrounding princes were frightened. When they heard that the Xiangzhou Navy was unblocking and retreating, Yu Jian took the initiative to let go. Opened the blockade...
Everyone knows that Cai Chao lost this game. This is the same as the leaf card popular among ladies and ladies in the imperial circle. Even if you lose a game, you still have to maintain your dignity. This is the game of poker. You can only pretend to be stepped on by others. It's okay, the atmosphere on the table should even be harmonious.
Da Siming was not polite to him. She pushed her long hair back from her ears and raised her chin towards the main hall of the palace not far away: "I came here just now and saw people crowded around. Isn't it very lively?"
"The temporary venue for the technology display expo is full of special envoys from each state, hehe... they are here for the airship." Ye Qing smiled.
He has reason to be happy. Airships are both weapons and benefits. This display is both a deterrent and a temptation. The first battle reversed the situation. The Yingxiang encirclement was broken immediately. The next opponent he faced was not a tacitly united opponent. Once a certain section of the Heqianli Dam breaks, the overall pressure will cause it to collapse.
Several people bypassed the fairy ship and went to the main hall of the venue. Outside the bustling hall were lined with guards. Fu Chengshan was already waiting there with a pass. He winked and said, "I have brought new conditions from the imperial capital. Let's talk?" "
"Let's talk here and tell us what the conditions are."
Ye Qing had already expected that with the vast territory of the Cai Dynasty and the lack of the four strategic exits of the Wei Kingdom's Dongtian Fusion, there was an urgent need for transportation. Although the Heimai Shuifu waterway system was fast, how could it compete with the rapid speed of flying across thousands of miles? Air to ship ratio?
"Airship technology is very important for fighting against foreign lands... For the sake of overall defense, the imperial court has decided to lift the blockade around Hunan, make concessions in the southern part of Dongzhou, sign a peace treaty to recognize the Han Dynasty, and withdraw the Xiangzhou Navy to Xiaozhou... ..." Fu Chengshan stood at the door and talked.
In fact, when he said this condition, he was a little shameless in his heart - after visiting Yingzhou's industrial strength in person these days, he felt that the above attitude was too condescending, so he tried to soften his tone: "Prince Yu, Sister Wang, Mingyu County Lord has been sealed Princess Mingyu, if you want, I can also create a princess... to marry you."
Ye Qing thought for a moment and raised five fingers: "There are some small problems. First, the imperial court cannot represent the divine lineage of heaven... If it were the emperor who was willing to form an alliance with our emperor of the green lineage in the name of Tu De, then I What's the harm in the little immortal sacrificing some personal interests?"
"It's a pity that your emperor is not qualified to represent Huang Pulse, nor is he qualified to ask me, an immortal, to obey the overall situation."
Fu Chengshan was familiar with this old friend. As soon as he heard the words "Emperor," he gave up hope and could only listen with a wry smile.
Ye Qing put down a finger: "...Secondly, I don't care whether the Xiangzhou Navy is hostile or not. If Sun Xinbo dares to come, I will beat him once. Please continue to be hostile."
"Third, the lifting of the blockade around Yingxiang is not the decision of your court, but the princes of each family have eyes and understand the current affairs."
Ye Qing looked back at the crowded crowd at the venue and smiled: "What kind of conditions do you think they will offer when they come this time?"
"It can be said that I have to spit out any part of the dividends transferred in the past three years that adds insult to injury."
"Fourth, I have all the power to make concessions in the southern part of Dongzhou, so why do I need you to make concessions?" Ye Qing said with a sneer: "The Dukes of the two prefectures feel too good about themselves.
It is a pity that the Han Kingdom has been established... This is the fifth time, and the Han Kingdom does not need recognition from your court."
No need for court recognition?
Fu Chengshan was suddenly shocked. Before he had time to think about it, he saw Ye Qing put away his five fingers and clenched them into a fist: "As for Mingyu, if I want her, I will get it. You emperor, don't worry, he
He’s not Mingyu’s father…”
The last sentence he said was simply treasonous, pointing out that the emperor had become a successor. Fu Chengshan only smiled bitterly and said nothing, and slandered in his heart: Next time he will not be an envoy even if he is killed, he will apply for decentralization to counties when he returns.
"Isn't it difficult to be a messenger?"
After Ye Qing finished talking about the matter, he regained his friendliness, smiled and patted him on the shoulder, showing sympathy and understanding, and then said: "It's just that I have been feeling very uncomfortable for the past three years, and I have yet to express my feelings."
After saying that, he entered the palace and said casually: "I want technology and I want to share profits. How can it be so easy? That's my answer. Brother Nian goes to report to the court, and I go to see other countries.
The messenger..."
Da Siming watched this and was angry that Cai Chao still had plans for Dongzhou. He stared at the envoy with a cold look, then turned to Ye Qing and said gently: "You have done well. Anyone who dares to extend his claws to Dongzhou in the future will be chopped off."
Lose……"
Ye Qing smiled and said nothing, and went inside to meet other envoys. This meeting was not a group of people talking in the main hall, but separate meetings in the side hall.
It feels like a company boss interviewing candidates.
This time the Northern Wei Dynasty sent a new special envoy Jin Yang Zhenren, who had the crisp and neat style of the prairie. After a few pleasantries, he said directly: "Our king's request is to share technology, or not to share it. You can also buy airships."
...According to our intelligence from the Cai Dynasty, the emperor seems to be interested in offering a marriage? Isn’t it a biological princess, just a title?”
"If the imperial court is really sincere, it should directly confer the title of King of Han. If you do not confer the title of king, it is nothing more than false accusations and snakes. Although we, the Wei State, are not the imperial court and cannot be canonized, we can recognize you as the King of Han and engage in reciprocal diplomacy.
"
Ye Qing remained calm, a little surprised at the intelligence of the Wei State. It seemed that if it weren't for the unique composition of the core of the Hanhou Mansion and Ling Ling's killings in the past few years, something would really have been leaked... After this use, there would be more
Clean it up once.
Jin Yang Zhenren didn't know that these words would cause his country's intelligence network in Yingxiang to be purged again. He said with a sincere face: "Moreover, our Wei State is willing to pay a high price to buy it. The king wants to marry his sister, and the dowry should be as high as the princess...
Marquis of Han, please look at this gift list."
Ye Qing took it and looked at it, and found that there was a painted image of a woman in the gift list. She had a beautiful smile. She was clearly the girl he had met during the last alliance. He closed the gift list lightly and said, "It seems a bit much?"
"It's just twice the size of an ordinary princess, not much, not much." Master Jin Yang opened his eyes and told lies.
Ye Qing immediately understood the meaning. In fact, half of it was a real dowry, and the other half was a disguised quotation. It was just that the King of Wei adopted a bundled sales strategy to strengthen the conditions. He would never sell them separately at a discount, showing that he was bound to win.
It is indeed a gold vein style.
It's a pity that he wasn't prepared to go it alone. It would be stupid in the two-domain war situation... The general trend of Dongzhou is established, and the strategic significance of the air fleet to cross the sea is reduced by one level, but this technology is perfect for presenting to the heaven.
Therefore, Cai Chao's calculations were meaningless to him, and Wei's momentum was meaningless to him. All he could do was look regretful: "Your country is very sincere, but it's a pity that I can't accept it."
Master Jin Yang was shocked and wondered whether Cai Chao secretly offered higher conditions?
"Dear guest, please come with me..." A maid guided him out on one side, and another maid came out of the hall and said: "The next one is invited, the envoy of the King of Chu."
King Chu's envoys came out proudly, and the remaining envoys couldn't help but move, fidgeting a little, with different expressions, and secretly considering the terms...
They know very well that they may not be able to compete with the three families of Cai, Wei, and Chu, but if the deal is not successful, they must leave a good impression to facilitate cooperation at tomorrow's technology exhibition - the practical technology of Hanhou Mansion is not only about fairy ships, there are always
Technology that can be purchased.
This envoy interview meeting, or quotation meeting, went on until very late. Da Siming observed the process. After all the envoys went to rest, he smiled and joked: "It's my turn now, right?"
Ye Qing put away the quotations, rubbed his chin, looked at her figure, and smiled: "This beautiful female fairy does not need to be interviewed. You only need to say something and it will be given to you."
Da Siming remained calm. She had known for a long time that Ye Qing was planning to hand over his technology, but not to the imperial court nor to the Wei State, but only to the Heavenly Court in exchange for Heavenly Power - the next step would be to popularize it, and no one would be able to do so.
offend.
She was just a little curious: "Then why are you letting this rumor go?"
"I know that the value of the technology I have developed will not reduce its value, but I will not refuse cooperation or that the only thing that is interesting to His Highness is this fairy ship, but to the industry, the fairy ship is just a cutting-edge product."
"The process is a large-scale system project. Wahuang and I overcame many difficulties during the development process. The derived technologies accumulated are very valuable in military industry and even civilian use, especially the simplified application of power, shielding, defense, weapons and other subsystems.
, it is very valuable on the ground battlefield.”
"This is equivalent to us using the fairy ship to sell its name and taking the opportunity to promote its related products... The reason of course cannot be that we don't give it, just that there are too many people who want it. There will always be people who get it and people who don't get it. A big country cannot be insulted.
...Well, it makes them feel better to hear such compliments. The public auction will be made public, and the conflict will be pushed to themselves, so as not to cause trouble to us."
As soon as these words came out, Da Siming was speechless for a while.
Seeing that she was in a good mood, Ye Qing struck while the iron was hot and said, "There is actually a small condition..."
In the end, there was still a request. Da Siming glared at the man: "Tell me what it is?"
"I would like to ask for a seal from the Heavenly Sacrifice." Ye Qing said in a normal tone, as if he were saying to the female stall owner at the vegetable market: "Please give me this cabbage."
This tone made Da Siming confused for a moment. He thought about the meaning and frowned: "Sacrifice to heaven and grant a title? No wonder you said that you don't want the court to recognize the Han Dynasty, and you want to be an immortal king granted by heaven?"
"No, no, if the development of Dongzhou is completed and the population under its control reaches 30 million, this Immortal King will definitely be yours. If you don't tell me, I will plead for you, but now there is still a long way to go..."
Ye Qing observed her expression and compared it with the spiritual clone of Da Si Ming in his sleeves. He immediately knew that it was impossible and smiled: "It's rare for envoys from all parties to gather together, so Yu Jian will handle the matter together. Even if the Immortal King doesn't give it, a smaller one will do it."
Does it have a personality?”
"You are really thinking of choosing cabbage. Are there any smaller ones?" Da Siming almost choked and said angrily: "Yes, yes, Duke of Han... But I can't make the decision. It just depends on whether the superiors will give them to you."
Okay... let’s make a deal first, if you don’t give the gesture of offering sacrifices to heaven after you make it, you will be embarrassed in front of the envoys from all sides.”
"I believe my face is still worth something." Ye Qing smiled meaningfully.
Da Siming snorted and ignored him, went out, and soon disappeared.
Ye Qing removed the expression on his face and began to think carefully: This is to contact the senior officials of Qingmai, who is behind her?
Donghuang Tianxian, or...which big boss from the Legal Garden?
After thinking about it for a long time, there was no result. The news about the Celestial Immortal was very secretive, and the Qingmai Celestial Immortal did not fall into any calculations. At this moment, he deeply felt that he was still too far away from the top level of Qingmai. I was afraid that he could only take one step further.
Only then are you qualified to understand the situation and clearly distinguish who is the opponent and who is the friend when competing for the position of Qing Emperor in the future.
"Sir, the dress for tomorrow's big festival is ready. Sister Bai Jing wants you to go over and try it on." Zhou Ling poked her head out from behind the curtain and waved gently.
Ye Qing followed her to the back hall to try on clothes. The lights were shining silently throughout the palace complex. There were still many people who were awake tonight for various reasons, and various messages and temptations were stirring up trouble.
