Zhao Kang's metaphor really made the four women around him speechless.
Ye Hongxue warned, "The two countries are obviously here to negotiate peace this time. If the pressure is too tight, they may form an offensive and defensive alliance like Qian Guo and Jing Guo. Then there may be some trouble."
Zhao Kang laughed and said, "Hongxue, you still don't understand. Times have changed."
Eyelashes flickered slightly, Ye Hongxue was a little confused.
Grabbing the fruit on the table and taking a bite, Zhao Kang said with a smile, "They are afraid of us now. Until they are confident enough to deal with the cannon, they will only tolerate it!"
"Today is no longer the day when they all ruled the roost. What's more, even if they form an offensive and defensive alliance, what if they form an offensive and defensive alliance? Why should I, Zhao Kang, be afraid of fighting them on two fronts if I have cannons?" ??
Zhao Kang said with a sneer, "Yesterday Li Yuan came to me and reported to me the current number of cannons. In half a year at most, I will be able to gather a hundred cannons. By then, only Gan will be left in the North." Guohe Jingguo!"
Zhao Kang smiled softly and said, "By then our family will be able to live a more stable life."
The four girls looked at each other, feeling secretly happy and looking forward to that day.
Within Liangzhou.
After passing through the border town, the two groups of nearly a thousand people set off on the road together.
Inside the carriage, two beautiful women were kneeling opposite each other.
Liu Yanran was wearing a light yellow palace dress with a respectful expression. She nodded to Gongsun Yunxiu in front of her and said, "Yanran has benefited a lot from listening to Gongsun's teachings these days."
Dressed in white and playing a jade flute, Gongsun Yunxiu smiled gently, "It's just a family thing. It's good if your highness the princess can gain something."
Liu Yanran thought for a while and asked, "Gongsun, everyone, in your opinion, do the Qianguo agree to negotiate peace?"
Gongsun Yunxiu said calmly, "Yes, but the process should have some twists and turns. In addition..."
"What else?" Liu Yanran asked quickly.
Gongsun Yunxiu said, "Whether you negotiate for peace or not, the result is actually the same. The Qian Kingdom now has a vague image of being the master of the world."
"The empress of the Qian Kingdom has always been ambitious and dedicated her life to strengthening the Qian Kingdom. Jing Kingdom now has a new army named Wu Guanhai. This person is good at hiding his talents. He is the natural emperor that the Jing Kingdom has been waiting for for hundreds of years."
"Both of them have the goal of strengthening the country, and no emperor would not be tempted by such things as opening up territories."
"Coupled with the close friendship between the two countries now, and the existence of weapons called cannons, I think as long as the right time comes, Qian Jing will join forces to devour Zhou and Qi, dividing the world into two parts."
"Now the peace talks are just lingering. Without a way to deal with cannons, the two countries of Zhou and Qi can only wait for death."
Although he had vaguely guessed it in his mind, Liu Yanran still looked a little pale when Gongsun Yunxiu said this.
She came to Qian Kingdom this time because she was forced by her father and the officials.
Before leaving, the regretful Emperor of Qi only said one sentence to her, that he would make peace with Qian Guo and Zhao Kang no matter what.
No matter what price we pay, if we can't get through this difficulty, Qi will probably really perish.
Along the way, she kept thinking about how to get Qian Guo to let Qi Guo go.
Until she heard that someone from Zhou State was also on the way to Qian State, she caught up with him without stopping, hoping that the two sides could discuss it together.
But now that she got such a result from Gongsun Yunxiu, she couldn't help but feel sad in her heart. She thought for a moment and asked, "It is said that one mountain cannot tolerate two tigers. According to Gongsun, do you think it is possible to start from this aspect?"
Gongsun Yunxiu glanced at her and said calmly, "Have you forgotten? Nowadays, the truly powerful country is Qian State, not Jing State."
"Jingguo is now relying on Qianguo for survival. Wu Guanhai is not a short-sighted person, so how can he turn against Qianguo?"
"Secondly, with Zhao Kang here, the relationship between Qian and Jing will not be broken. The friendship between the two countries lies in Zhao Kang and Ye Hongxue. Maybe there will be such a day, but judging from the situation below, I am afraid that Zhou and Qi will never see each other. That day."
Pursing her lips, Liu Yanran asked unwillingly, "Gongsun, everyone, are you planning to do nothing this time on your mission to Qianguo?"
In her opinion, Gongsun Yunxiu, as the dean of Zhou Academy, was a man of great talent. Zhou sent her as an envoy to Qian State this time because he must have wanted Gongsun Yunxiu to save the country from danger.
But she didn't expect that Gongsun Yunxiu didn't respond to her directly. He just smiled and said, "Your Highness misunderstood. I came to Qian Country this time just to see the changes in Qian Country."
"The general trend of the world varies from person to person, but that person is not inferior, that person is in charge of the country."
Liu Yanran fell silent, not knowing what else to say.
The team marched for six days and finally arrived at the capital of the Qian Kingdom. Although the two sides had a bloody feud, there was still some superficial work that should be done.
Just hearing that the person sent by Qianguo was just a minister of the Ministry of Rites, Liu Yanran knew that it would be more difficult to achieve the goal of coming to Qianguo this time.
Staying in the State Guesthouse, Liu Yanran heard that Gongsun Yunxiu had left, and Liu Yanran did not intend to sit still and wait for death. She ordered her servants to bring gifts and put on a veil before leaving the State Guesthouse.
Taishi Mansion.
Master Yang was drinking tea. When she heard that her servants were coming to report, she put down her tea cup.
That kid really got it right again.
"Your Highness, please come in and prepare tea."
Liu Yanran walked into the hall of the Taishi Mansion and saw the old Taishi Yang Qianyun. The old man smiled and said, "Her Royal Highness the Princess suddenly visited. I am very frightened."
"Your Majesty, Grand Master, you are so polite. Yan Ran is disturbing me. A mere gift is disrespectful." Liu Yanran signaled her entourage to give her a gift.
Yang Qianyun pretended to be surprised, "What are you doing, Your Highness? You're embarrassing me."
Liu Yanran hurriedly said, "Master Taishi, you don't have to be polite. I heard that Master Taishi has noble aspirations. This is a calligraphy written by Du Fang, the great calligrapher of our country a hundred years ago. I hope Taishi will not refuse."
Yang Qianyun's eyes lit up. Du Fang, a scholar from Qi State a hundred years ago, was an incredible guy. Even after he passed away a hundred years ago, his calligraphy is still respected as the best in the world.
A copybook is worth tens of thousands of dollars, thinking about what that guy obviously said.
Yang Qianyun stroked his beard and smiled, "That old man is so shameless, please serve tea."
Liu Yanran breathed a sigh of relief. If the other party could accept the gift, then she would still have something to talk about.
Warning herself not to be impatient, Liu Yanran smiled after drinking a cup of tea and looked at Yang Qianyun, "Master Taishi, I wonder if Mr. Zhao, the national preceptor of your country, is in the imperial capital now. Can Mr. Taishi make an introduction to Yanran?" .”
After thinking deeply about the journey along the way, Liu Yanran understood in her heart that the person who can really dominate the Qian Kingdom now is not the empress, but Zhao Kang, who is less than one person and more than ten thousand people.
As long as Zhao Kang can let go, everything will be easy to talk about. Zhao Kang's metaphor really made the four women around him speechless.
Ye Hongxue warned, "The two countries are obviously here to negotiate peace this time. If the pressure is too tight, they may form an offensive and defensive alliance like Qian Guo and Jing Guo. Then there may be some trouble."
