Outside the Chinese army's tent, the atmosphere was depressing and it was difficult to breathe.
In the cauldron, the boiling water kept emitting bubbles. Even if you stood far away, you could feel the hot breath coming towards your face.
At a young age, Liu He was able to sneak into Yizhou officialdom and become an official with his cleverness.
However, Liu He has experienced very few things. He is like a flower in a greenhouse. He is very arrogant. Compared with Ren An, his ability can be said to be that one is in the sky and the other is at the bottom.
The soldiers who led the way led Liu He to the Chinese army's tent, and then went to do their own things. Liu He stood outside the Chinese army's tent, looking at the firewood crackling in the stone stove and the boiling water in the cauldron, sparkling
The Han Dao, full of murderous intent, swallowed his saliva and was so frightened that he almost lost his mind.
"Sir, let's go!"
The soldier standing behind Liu He reminded him, waking Liu He up.
Liu He took a deep breath and walked forward. The two soldiers looked at each other, shook their heads slightly and sighed, both showing bitter expressions, but they still followed Liu He and continued to move forward.
"please!"
When Liu He walked around the steaming cauldron and strode towards the camp, the soldiers standing at the entrance of the camp shouted loudly. When the other soldiers on both sides heard this, they immediately shouted in response.
The sudden roar suddenly sounded, catching Liu He off guard.
His heart suddenly trembled, his feet felt weak, and he stumbled forward and fell forward. Fortunately, there were two soldiers guarding him behind him, who held Liu He back and prevented him from making a fool of himself.
"What a risk, what a risk!"
Liu He stretched out his hand to wipe the cold sweat from his forehead, his heart felt cold.
At this time, even with a pig's brain, Liu He could guess Wang Can's intentions. Especially since he waited outside the camp for an hour, Liu He understood that Wang Can had no intention of welcoming him from the beginning. Not only that, Wang Can
Can also sent a soldier to humiliate him and deliberately dragged him at the gate of the camp to give him a disgrace.
"Hoo! Hoo!"
Liu He took a few deep breaths, and then strode towards the tent.
Two Yizhou soldiers followed Liu He, but were stopped by soldiers guarding the entrance of the camp. After the Yizhou soldiers took off the weapons from their waists, the two soldiers were allowed to follow Liu He and enter the camp.
A group of three people looked solemn after entering the camp.
Liu He waved his sleeves, cupped his hands and said: "Liu He, the envoy of Yizhou, pays homage to the prefect Wang." Like Ren An, Liu He just made a show of it and did not really bow to Wang Can. No matter it was the last time
Both Ren An and Liu He represented Yizhou, and Wang Can was just the prefect of Hanzhong, which was not enough for the two to bow to each other.
Moreover, as an envoy, you must not only be polite, polite, and well-founded when doing things, but you must also consider your own identity and maintain your integrity.
Wang Can did not make things difficult for Liu He, nor did he beat around the bush. He asked directly: "Let's talk directly, what is Zhao Wei going to do?"
Straight to the point, without any fuss.
But it was precisely because of this that Liu He was very angry.
Before Liu He came, he prepared a lot of words, hoping to argue with Wang Can and put Wang Can in a position of disloyalty, unkindness, and injustice, so that Wang Can would not be able to step down and bow his head to admit his mistake, thus completing Zhao Wei's mission. However,
As soon as Wang Can opened his mouth, he asked about the conditions given by Zhao Wei, which made Liu He so full of ideas that he couldn't say anything.
This situation made Liu He very frustrated and irritable.
Liu He's eyes kept rolling, thinking about how to guide Wang Can's thoughts, and after a while he said: "Prefect Wang, General Zhao sent Liu He to visit the prefect in order to solve the problem between the two families. Judging from the current situation,
The best choice is for Taishou Wang and Yizhou to coexist peacefully. The so-called 'harmony' benefits both sides. Once there is a war, both sides will be harmed, and it will be a disaster for Taishou Wang."
“That’s bullshit!”
Wang Can sneered and said: "I don't have the time to listen to your nonsense. Since you don't say anything, I will cook you first and wait until Zhao Wei sends someone to discuss the matter again." Wang Can raised his head slightly and looked at
He shouted to the outside of the camp: "Here, throw Liu He into the big pot and cook him."
After the words fell, two Hanzhong soldiers walked in quickly and walked towards Liu He.
The soldiers protecting Liu He immediately stood up and glared at him.
Although the two of them did not have swords, they were still on alert and ready to take action.
Wang Can said: "Liu He, Liu He, you actually have two loyal subordinates, how touching! In this case, I will help them first and chop off their heads."
After hearing this, the expressions of the two Yizhou soldiers changed greatly, but they remained motionless.
When Liu He saw the Hanzhong soldiers striding over, he rolled his eyes and shouted: "Prefect Wang, you don't have to make it difficult for my two soldiers to protect me. If you want to kill me, I will go to the cauldron myself."
Liu He flicked his sleeves with both hands and laughed loudly: "It's ridiculous, it's ridiculous, the dignified governor of Hanzhong is actually afraid of me, a Confucian scholar." As he spoke, Liu He turned around and walked out of the camp. He walked very slowly.
, waiting in his heart for Wang Can to call him to stop him. Sure enough, just when Liu He had just walked a certain distance and was about to approach the tent door curtain, Wang Can's voice came: "Slow down!"
When Liu He heard this, he immediately stopped.
He was a little scared, but he understood the principle of not killing the envoy when the two armies were fighting. It was impossible for Wang Can to kill him for his reputation. Liu He turned around, took two hurried steps, and said: "Prefect Wang, if you don't kill me,
, Do you want to humiliate me? Huh, if that’s the case, there’s no need for it, as long as I take the blame myself, Prefect Wang can achieve his goal.”
Wang Can was stunned by these words.
Wang Can laughed loudly and said: "You are really a rotten scholar, you are self-righteous and annoying. I didn't let you take the blame, but you have to do it yourself. Do you want me to persuade you? Hey, why do you have to do this?
Tell me, tell me directly what Zhao Wei plans to do?"
While speaking, Wang Can waved his hand and dismissed the two Hanzhong soldiers who entered the camp.
Liu He felt depressed and knew that Wang Can was a very good thief and could not deceive Wang Can. He said directly: "Prefect Wang, my general Zhao is willing to surrender to the prefect and surrender all the counties in Yizhou to the prefect.
The governor of Yizhou is the governor, but the only condition is that Chengdu remains independent, General Zhao and other Yizhou generals also continue to stay in Chengdu, and the governor Wang is not allowed to interfere in Chengdu's affairs."
"Absolutely impossible!"
Wang Can waved his hand and refused directly.
If Chengdu becomes independent, it will become a country within a country, and Wang Can cannot agree to it.
Liu He snorted, but refused to give in, and said: "Master Taishou, if you don't agree, I, Chengdu, will fight to the death. Chengdu has soldiers and food. It will be difficult for Wang Taishou to capture Chengdu. By then, the Taishou will lose his troops and generals."
, but it’s not good. Since the governor doesn’t agree, then I’ll see you on the battlefield.”
"Farewell!"
After Liu He finished speaking, he was about to say goodbye and leave. Wang Can was too scary and moody. If he stayed here for one more minute, he would be in more danger.
Seeing this, Wang Can sneered: "Liu He, our Hanzhong military camp is not your back garden. You can come and leave whenever you want. Moreover, Chengdu is facing a crisis. When you are on a mission, you should
Be prepared to die." Wang Can ordered: "Come here, pull all three of them down and remove a finger as a punishment, so that Zhao Wei can understand how to be sincere."
"Ta! Ta!..."
There was a sound of rapid footsteps, and soldiers ran in quickly, pulling Liu He away in a few moments.
Not long after, three screams were heard outside the camp, and the little fingers of the three people's left hands were chopped off before they were sent away. Wang Can thought for a while and shouted: "Come, please invite Guo Jia!"
"promise!"
The soldiers outside the camp responded and immediately went to convey the order.
Not long after, Guo Jia came to Wang Can's tent, bowed to Wang Can, and then sat down.
Wang Can said: "Feng Xiao, Zhao Wei said last time that he was willing to divide the territory and rule it. Today he sent Liu He, but he was willing to hand over Yizhou, but he still wanted Chengdu to be independent. From this point of view, the weight given by Zhao Wei
It’s getting heavier and heavier, and it seems that the conditions are gradually being relaxed, but there is no direct choice to surrender. What does Fengxiao think this is and why?”
Guo Jia thought for a while and said: "My lord, Zhao Wei is testing my lord's bottom line!"
Wang Can said: "Fengxiao, what you mean is that Zhao Wei wants to test the scope of what I can accept, and he will send someone here."
Guo Jia nodded and said, "Yes, that's it."
Wang Can sneered twice and said, "Okay, let him test it slowly. Next time an envoy comes, it won't be as simple as chopping off a finger."
Guo Jia cupped his hands and said, "My lord, what you said makes sense!"
At the gate of Dazhai, Liu He and the two soldiers beside him were pale and looked at the camp with fear and hatred.
The soldiers stationed at the gate of the camp saw this situation and kept laughing in their hearts.
Liu He and the others got on the carriage and headed for Chengdu.
The carriage galloped quickly, and after returning to Chengdu, Liu He ignored the injury on his hand and immediately ran towards the Prefecture Mufu to pay a visit to Zhao Wei.
