The first time Wu Changan saw Wu Zhongxian, he stood up directly and walked forward to greet him.
This treatment made Her Majesty the Empress slightly surprised.
She had some understanding of Wu Changan's character.
proud!
Very proud!
Don't take anyone seriously.
It is said that even the prime minister of the Wei Dynasty and several other important officials did not take him seriously.
But I didn't expect that he would be so polite to Wu Zhongxian?
The attitude highlighted by this politeness is appreciation.
The general of the Great Wei Kingdom, one of the three princes, admired Wu Zhongxian very much. Otherwise, given his status, he would not have stood up to greet an eunuch in person.
At this moment, Her Majesty the Empress looked at Wu Zhongxian, and suddenly felt in her heart that this eunuch was quite saving her face!
Wu Zhongxian is her confidant.
It was she who overcame all objections and personally consecrated the title of Grand Chamberlain.
Moreover, he is still the man left to him by his father.
Therefore, it is normal for Her Majesty the Empress to feel this way.
Let’s not talk about Her Majesty the Empress’s petty thoughts for now.
Wu Zhongxian did not greet Wu Changan, but first passed Wu Changan and saluted Her Majesty the Empress who was sitting on the throne.
Of course, this is not kneeling down, just bending down normally.
"No gift."
Her Majesty the Empress is very satisfied.
Wu Zhongxian's actions made her feel even more comfortable.
It was not because of Wu Changan's attention that he forgot about himself and became arrogant.
This is the advantage that Wu Zhongxian is most sensible and makes the superiors happy the most.
Naturally, Wu Changan didn't say much. He was also a loyal general.
Seeing that Wu Zhongxian was loyal to the Emperor of Zhou Dynasty, he felt nothing but admiration.
A talented and learned man like Wu Zhongxian was so loyal to Emperor Zhou Ren.
It can be seen that Emperor Zhou Ren was also a good emperor.
This is the chain reaction triggered by Wu Zhongxian's small action.
So much so that General Wu Changan had a lot of respect for Emperor Zhou Ren.
At least for Wu Zhongxian's sake, he couldn't disrespect Emperor Zhou Ren.
"General Wu, please sit down."
"Eunuch Wu, there is no need to be polite to Wu!"
Everyone bowed to each other and took their seats.
At this time, the maids also began to serve food and wine.
A rectangular wooden table several meters long is filled with a variety of Dazhou specialties.
Immediately afterwards, there were performances by specialized singers and dancers.
These don't look good, so skip them.
After everyone enjoyed a few pieces of dance music, Wu Changan mentioned the key point of the day.
"Your Majesty, Emperor Ren, regarding this alliance, although King Wei has this intention, there are many opponents in the court, so it may be difficult to unite."
Wu Changan took a sip of wine and looked at Emperor Zhou Ren.
Regardless of whether you agree to cooperate or not, it is impossible to express your intention to cooperate directly from the beginning, otherwise you will be at a disadvantage.
This is the most basic rule of negotiation.
Although Wu Changan was not good at negotiating, he was a general after all, and he still knew the tricks very well.
Emperor Zhou Ren didn't change his expression and said with a smile: "General Wu, the ambition of Qin's wolf is obvious! If we choose not to assist Ming for the sake of immediate interests, the consequences in the future will definitely be more serious than imagined."
"Just a few days ago, the Qin Dynasty's millions of cavalry arrived at the border of the Ming Dynasty. If our two countries are still suspicious of each other at this moment, when the Ming Dynasty falls, we, the Great Zhou Dynasty, and you, the Great Wei Dynasty, will also face the danger of national subjugation!"
"If the Great Wei really does not want to unite, we, the Great Zhou, will not send troops to support us. I believe that with our strength, the Great Zhou will not have any pressure to defend the Great Wei."
“…”
The words of Emperor Ren of Zhou not only pointed out the dangers of the Great Qin, but also showed that the Great Zhou was not afraid of the Great Wei.
Although I, the Great Zhou, cannot defeat the Great Qin, I am still capable of beating you, the Great Wei!
The empress has a very strong aura and is very domineering!
Wu Changan pondered slightly.
Before coming to the Great Zhou Dynasty, Wu Changan also learned about the war situation on the front line of the Ming Dynasty.
In fact, Wu Changan is the main militant!
He did not believe that Da Qin would really choose to give up part of its territory to Da Wei after capturing Ming Dynasty.
This was nothing more than Da Qin's tactic to delay the war.
How could the murderous general of the Great Qin Dynasty easily give away the captured cities to other countries?
However, there were some scholars in the Wei Dynasty who believed that what Da Qin said was true and would rather believe in the conditions promised by Da Qin, so they did not resist or fight desperately.
These scholars formed a peace faction, with the support of the prime minister behind them, which made it impossible for King Wei to make up his mind.
Moreover, the King of Wei was also afraid of Da Qin.
Da Qin's national power is indeed too strong.
Even if many dynasties unite to deal with the Qin Dynasty, it will not be easy.
The atmosphere fell into an awkward situation.
The Wei Dynasty obviously did not make up its mind completely.
Zhou Nanhuang was naturally worried about Wei.
After all, if the Wei Dynasty wanted to send troops to support the Ming Dynasty, it would have to pass through the territory of the Zhou Dynasty. Any country would be cautious about this, no matter how cautious it was.
Hundreds of thousands or even millions of troops.
Once you enter the border, it is difficult to control.
"General Wu, let me toast you." At this time, Wu Zhongxian raised his glass and toasted Wu Chang'an.
Wu Chang'an picked up the wine glass in return, took a sip, and said with a smile: "Eunuch Wu, I wonder if you have published any new poems recently?"
Sure enough, I still think about it.
Fortunately, Wu Zhongxian was prepared and took out the papyrus paper on which he had written the poem.
To be more precise, it is a copied poem.
But this time it’s not Li Taibai’s poem.
But it is the poem of another poet.
And another poem by Xiao Taibai.
Wu Changan quickly took the papyrus from Wu Zhongxian's hand and admired it, which showed that he was already itching unbearably.
On the main seat, Zhou Nanhuang's thoughts were surging as he looked at Wu Changan.
She was also very curious about what poem Wu Zhongxian wrote for Wu Changan.
With Wu Zhongxian's talent and learning, he should be very profound.
In fact, there was another person at the scene who was ignored.
That is the Queen.
Yes, the Queen is here too.
When she heard that Wu Zhongxian had written poems for General Wu, she arrived early.
But he didn't appear at the banquet, but was in the inner room, listening to the conversations outside.
As for why he didn't come out to sit with Emperor Zhou Ren...
Because since the last time in the imperial study, the empress learned that Emperor Zhou Ren was a daughter, her whole body was stunned.
Only then did she understand why Emperor Zhou Ren did not come to the bridal chamber during the night of flowers and candles.
It turns out she can’t do it!
After the empress learned the truth, she was so angry that she almost wanted to settle the score with Emperor Zhou Ren.
It was Wu Zhongxian who stopped her, so she didn't go.
But the Queen is still angry!
Since Emperor Zhou Ren was born as a girl, why did he still marry himself!?
Is it just to get the support of their Lu family?
Can she sacrifice Lu Suqing's lifelong happiness?
At this moment, Lu Suqing's mentality towards Emperor Zhou Ren completely changed.
Originally, Lu Suqing admired Emperor Zhou Ren very much, and besides worshiping him, he also felt guilty.
She thought it was her Hongxing who cheated on her, so she always felt guilty towards Emperor Zhou Ren.
But when she learned that Emperor Zhou Ren had deceived and used her, the Queen's inner admiration and guilt all turned into anger.
How much I loved it then, how much I hate it now!!
Let’s not mention this matter for now.
At this moment, the Queen felt itchy in her heart.
She really wanted to know what poems Wu Zhongxian had written.
Just at this time.
Wu Changan's hearty laughter could be heard outside.
"Hahahaha! Good! Good! What a poem!!"
"Eunuch Wu is truly a great talent in this world! I, Wu, am extremely impressed!!!"
