"The fourth prince of the state of Chu is the regent of the country, but he has not ascended the throne?"
"Yes, Your Royal Highness, according to the information from the Chu State, it is indeed the case. The inscription on the Chu State Edict used by the Chu State envoy is also his Great Chu Regent, not his Great Chu Emperor."
Hearing the words, the prince smiled, turned his head to look at Ning Fangsheng, Minister of Rites beside him, and said:
"Old Ning, what do you think the fourth prince of Chu State meant?"
Obviously he had already defeated several other princes who seized the throne, and he also got the support of several big nobles in Chu State who owned the Zhu Kingdom, but he did not take advantage of the trend to succeed to the throne, but changed himself to be the Supervisor.
In fact, it has been said since ancient times to pay attention to the opponent tactically and despise the opponent strategically.
Especially at the country-to-country level, it is also politically correct to regard the other party as a "fame and fortune".
Not to mention the current Dayan, even though it failed once in the first battle of Wangjiang, it finally won the final victory. In the past few years, it has won a series of foreign victories, not to mention the inflated sense of pride of the people of Dayan. Those who are truly in charge of the court are also self-confident.
When commenting on officials or princes and ministers of other countries, there will naturally be a kind of inertia of the superior looking down.
Of course, how to analyze or how to analyze, self-confidence is self-confidence, but I did not naively think that the other party is really a fool.
"Prince, according to the old minister, it may be that the Qingluan Army of the Chu State was trapped in Yupan City. After our Dayan Iron Cavalry drove out the savages, we unified the land of the three Jins, which made the fourth prince of the Chu State lose his calm arrangement after seizing the throne. timing.
Instead of succeeding to the throne, he proclaimed himself a supervisor of the country first. If he thinks about it, he also wants to unite and integrate the major forces in the country, and first deal with the pressure from my big Yan. "
The prince nodded, he thought so too.
Put that seat, don't rush to sit on it, don't you want to? Certainly not.
As the prince of a country, no one knows better than him how terrifying the attraction of that dragon chair is.
At this time, Xu Guanghuai, Minister of the Household Department, said:
"Actually, he was not in a hurry to succeed to the throne, probably because the speed of our Yan army's march and the results we achieved exceeded what he had originally imagined.
Prince, Mr. Ning, right now, we still have to finalize the details of these credentials and treaties early. "
The letter of credence was sent by the state of Chu.
Regardless of whether the fourth prince is the Emperor of Chu or the regent of Jianguo, it is impossible for him to let the 40,000 Qingluan army starve to death in Yupan City.
But obviously, that person did not plan to send an army to another expedition, but hoped for a decent ending through peace talks.
The conditions offered by the State of Chu are not unreasonable. First of all, the Zhennan Pass originally held by the Situ family will be returned to the State of Yan;
At the same time, the state of Chu will recognize the jurisprudence of Dayan's rule over the land of the Three Jins;
This is the first two,
This is an explanation of the previous war.
Next, there are two more.
One is that the two countries of Yan and Chu will sign an alliance;
The Regent of the Chu State recalled in the letter of credence that the Ji family and the Xiong family had a Marquis of Yan and a Marquis of Chu.
Therefore, from then on, the two sides will watch and help each other. When Yan is threatened by barbarians, Chu will help; when Chu is threatened by Shanyue, Yan will help.
This is bullshit,
Not to mention that for a hundred years, Dayan has beaten the barbarians to the point of losing their temper completely. It is said that all the mountain and mountain tribes in Chu State have been expelled by the Chu people to the real poor mountains and rivers, and they are estimated to be almost extinct.
Both sides have no enemies anymore, what is there to watch and help each other?
To be honest, one day the mountains will rise suddenly, and the barbarians will also rise. One is in the westernmost part of Dayan, and the other is in the southernmost part of Chu State. Will there be enough time for each other to help each other?
Of course, the people of Yan knew it was bullshit, and the people of Chu must also know it. Therefore, according to diplomatic habits, the bullshit must be followed by really useful words.
That is the second article, Yanchu will become a "country of brothers".
Because the regent of the Chu State has not succeeded to the throne, he wants to respect the late Chu State Emperor and Yan Emperor as "brothers". It doesn't matter who is older or who is younger, regardless of age or national power, so I skip this debate directly, anyway. , the regent of Chu State can recognize Emperor Yan as "uncle".
These are the four major rules,
Below, there are a lot of trivial details.
? For example, the state of Chu will compensate the state of Yan for grain, money, etc., in order to appease the anger of the state of Yan, and is willing to follow the example ofAll the Jinshi who stayed in Beijing in last year's department went to the East Palace for a banquet. How about the drinks in the East Palace? "
No one dared to answer, on the one hand, it was because the matter was related to the prince, on the other hand, it was because everyone hadn't recovered from the shock.
"What's the matter, you are all the leaders of my Great Yan, the future of my Great Yan, the pillars of my Great Yan, who have done magnificent things, but are you speechless?"
At this time,
Liu Chucai licked his lips, cupped his hands to Ji Chengjue and said:
"Dare to ask dare to ask your lord, who is it?"
Ji Chengjue pondered for a while,
smiled,
While pouring himself another glass of wine, he said slowly:
"Today's sage is a master of the ages, stepping on the door of the family, collecting material for the country, and opening a promotion for the poor family;
His Majesty's wish is that I, a great Yan Ying, can disregard the suspicion of family status and not be trapped by blood. Those who are talented will serve the country in temples, and be herdsmen in good places.
You are the first batch, and there will be a second batch immediately after the start of the Spring Festival.
Wait, this is the future of my Dayan.
I,
Ji Chengjue,
Today, the sixth son of His Majesty, here is a toast to everyone! "
The sixth prince?
He is the sixth prince?
Ji Chengjue didn't wait for these shocked Jinshi masters to react, so he drank all the water and wine in his glass.
At this moment, in his mind, what the princess said to him when he was in Xiyuan earlier appeared again.
She said that as long as she became a princess, she would definitely get rid of herself.
Ji Chengjue sighed,
look up,
At that time he,
I really want to say something:
If it wasn't for the fact that my father has been deliberately not putting me on the plate,
What do you think about you and your husband?
You only saw that my father deliberately suppressed me, suppressed me so hard that I couldn't breathe, and made me miserable;
But don't really think about it,
Father is such a proud person,
I really don't like a son, just dismiss him casually, but why do you still want to be so cruel to me?
If it weren't for his blood flowing through my body,
Maybe I'm long gone.
but,
Who told me to be like him,
Who told him to know that I really resemble him.
seize the heir,
fight for position,
Let the old man think about it for himself, if he ends up, do you have any chance of winning?
Do you, Ji Chenglang, think that being a teacher or presiding over a spring festival in person can become the master of these new scholars?
Can you accept batches of young officials for your own use?
yes,
You are tired,
You stood there, supported the dragon gate, and watched the school of fish leap over;
Do you really think that all the talents in the world are in my hands?
don't even think about it,
These fish,
Before jumping over the dragon gate,
Who is feeding it?
In fact, after weeding out the descendants of the powerful, those so-called disadvantaged families and the so-called Dayan scholar seeds are actually not that many. If we screen out some good characters and give them kindness in advance, the cost paid is really great compared to the subsequent benefits. It's not worth mentioning.
Of course, you can't just subsidize whoever you catch, there must be some white-eyed wolves, but not too many, otherwise it will be easy to go in vain.
He, Ji Chengjue, never engages in any business that loses money.
It's a pity that Uncle Zheng is not here at this time, otherwise he would have to praise him in his heart.
In the history that Uncle Zheng is familiar with, the Jin Party in the Ming Dynasty and the plutocrats in some countries in later generations were actually arranged in this way, so as to finally achieve the purpose of influencing the government.
When the scale of capital reaches a certain level, it will instinctively penetrate and expand, and it is not limited to business.
Ji Chengjue sat down on the chair,
Now, you all think that I, Ji Chengjue, only confessed to Uncle Hirano!
As everyone knows,
A few years ago, when my business was fully launched, how many people did I confess!
Once I think about it,
Ji Chengjue's eyes narrowed slightly,
Sweeping across the group of people standing in front of you,
A slight arc is drawn at the corner of the mouth,
road:
"You are all scholars, and I, Dayan, are the group of people who know how to read the most.
There is a problem,
Cheng Jue is not talented,
I want to ask everyone.
That is,
In your opinion,
? Birth and nourishment,
In the end which is more important? "
silence,
silence,
silence
finally,
It's not that anyone moved first, it's more like a kind of coincidence.
? More than a dozen officials from various ministries of the Jinshi lords present,
Kneeling down to Ji Chengjue who was sitting in the first seat,
said in unison:
"Meet the benefactor."bsp; Ji Chengjue's eyes narrowed slightly,
