The King of Fortune

Chapter 219 Give up Xiqi City

Convincing King Zhou to withdraw his troops, San Yisheng was confident at first, but two hours passed, and King Zhou hadn't left the court yet, so he couldn't help feeling a little worried. He walked back and forth outside the palace, looking into the palace from time to time, except for a long Row of stone steps, he can see nothing.

An hour later, it was already afternoon, civil and military officials hadn't come out yet, but a cloud of auspicious clouds was coming from the west, San Yisheng was dumbfounded when he saw the person coming.Han Rong, it turned out to be Han Rong, this is simply unbelievable.

Han Rong glanced at San Yisheng and walked towards the main hall.

"Chen Han Rong, I have met the king, may the king live long, long live, long live."

All civil and military officials were amazed when they saw Han Rong appearing. You must know that it is thousands of miles from Chaoge to Xiqi, but only a few hours after the golden-eyed eagle sent the begging letter, Han Rong came. It's unbelievable.

Is it true that as rumored, Han Rong has learned the magic of the fairy family, and he can fly through the clouds and ride the fog?

"The national teacher is flat."

King Zhou was delighted when he saw that Han Rong looked like a fairy, although he was wearing armor, but his temperament was not inferior to that of the gods he had seen.These days, to quell the rebellion of the Quartet, relying on pure force will not work, and it is necessary to rely on certain Taoism.

"Thank you king."

Han Rong glanced left and right, and stood with Wei Zi. He hadn't been here for several years in the Nine Halls. With all the officials, civil and military, he only had some impressions of Wei Zi and a few others.However, he was very impressed with King Zhou.

It seems that without the three demons, King Zhou looks much more energetic than a few years ago. Although he is in his twilight years, due to his pampering, he looks similar to a 50-year-old man.

King Zhou said: "National teacher, Ji Fa sent someone to send a begging letter. The lonely king was asking what you mean, but I didn't expect you to come to the palace in person."

But Han Rong said: "Your Majesty, this matter is of great importance, so I decided to come to meet Your Majesty in person and discuss with you a method that can not only ensure the majesty of my great merchant, but also allow Ji Fa to pay for what he has done." cost."

King Zhou was overjoyed and said: "What the national teacher said is exactly what the Gu Wang wants. Although San Yisheng is eloquent, but Ji Fa's wolf ambition, the Gu Wang will not know. If he accepts his surrender in this way, the Gu Wang will feel unwilling and ashamed." To the hundreds of thousands of soldiers who died in Xiqi."

The ministers were shocked, but they didn't expect King Zhou's purpose of asking Han Rong to be so. As expected of a king, the sacred heart is unpredictable.

As soon as Han Rong appeared, Li Tong's face was not very good. Although he didn't have a deep impression of Han Rong, he also knew that this person was extremely difficult to deal with, so his plan might be in vain.He couldn't help worrying that he would be implicated because of San Yisheng.

Han Rong said: "Your Majesty is wise, when I came here, I thought of a way."

King Zhou was overjoyed. He racked his brains and didn't think of a solution, but Han Rong thought of a solution in such a short time.

The officials were speechless. Just now Han Rong said that he would discuss countermeasures with everyone, but when he opened his mouth, the king was overjoyed and almost agreed.From this, it can be seen how much the king attaches great importance to Han Rong, which is simply enviable.

Han Rong said frankly: "My lord, the Ji family has worked hard to manage Xiqi for generations, and it is deeply rooted. Xiqi is rich, and there are still hundreds of thousands of people in armor, which poses a big threat to the imperial court. Ji Fa wants to surrender to the imperial court. I think the first The consideration is how to weaken his influence."

King Zhou nodded and said, "That's right, that's right."

Wei Zi and Zhang Qian looked at each other and nodded secretly. After Han Rong's analysis, they suddenly realized that they had grasped the center of gravity.They objected to King Zhou's acceptance of Ji Fa's surrender, because they were worried that Ji Fa's emissary would delay the army and let him go, and there would be endless troubles. They could solve the problem according to Han Rong's thinking, so there was no need to worry at all.

"Your Majesty, in the hearts of the people of Xiqi, Xiqi City is as symbolic as a court song, and it is also the foundation of the Ji family. I think that the king can accept Ji Fa's surrender, but he must be forced to give up Xiqi City In this way, when Ji Fa left Xiqi City, his foundation was destroyed, and even if he had hundreds of thousands of troops in his hands, he would not be able to pose any threat to the great merchants."

Han Rong smiled inwardly. When it comes to conspiracies, he has thousands of years of history to learn from. No matter whether Ji Fa is sincere or not, he will make Ji Fa pay a heavy price and effectively attack Chanjiao.

"Wonderful."

King Zhou's eyes lit up, and the more he thought about it, the more wonderful he felt, and he couldn't help but feel very happy.When the Ji family left Xiqi City, it was like the Dragon King leaving the Crystal Palace. His dominance over Xiqi would inevitably be greatly weakened. Even if Ji Fa's ambition was not dead, so what.

What kind of appeal can a vassal king who has lost his prestige and even his foundation have any appeal in Xizhen.

Li Tong's complexion changed drastically. Han Rong's move was too cruel, and he directly beat the Ji family back to its original shape. In this way, no matter what purpose Ji Fa had, he could only submit to the court.

He is also good at strategy, and he considers himself a ruthless person, but compared with Han Rong, he is still far behind.

Li Tong will suddenly realize why Jiang Ziya won against Grand Master Wen, but still can't beat Han Rong, because the gap in means is too great.

Zhang Qian cheered up, and came out and said: "The national teacher's strategy is wonderful, but Ji Faruo disagrees."

Han Rong didn't take it seriously and said: "If you don't agree, beat him until he agrees. For the sake of the prosperity and wealth of his Ji family, he will definitely give up."

Fists are the last word. Ji Fa sent people to send the book of begging and surrendering this time. He was afraid that he would secretly hide the truth from the teaching. He would burn a few copies of the book of begging and surrendering, and then send people to shoot at the four gates of east, west, north and south. It's about to make a grand debut.

On such a major matter, Ji Fa had his own opinion. Obviously, he was already very dissatisfied with Jiang Ziya, and the relationship between the monarch and his ministers was broken.

King Zhou cheered up, and said with a smile: "The words of the national teacher are very in line with the wishes of the lonely king. Come and draw up an order, let Ji Fa give up Xiqi City, and the national teacher Han Rong will take over. If you dare not agree, Da Shang Caused by the front of the soldiers, all jade and stone will be burned!"

Han Rong was taken aback, and hurriedly said, "I thank you, Your Majesty."

Xiqi City is majestic and tall, enough to accommodate millions of soldiers and civilians. It is by no means comparable to a small city like Sishuiguan. Unexpectedly, King Zhou would be so generous that he would give this city to himself.Although it is still Ji Fa's territory, once he compromises, Xiqi City will become his own.

The ministers were secretly startled, Han Rongcai was conferred the title of national teacher, he is an extremely human minister, the king rewarded him with a city, what an honor it is.At this time, everyone saw that Han Rong was no longer envious, but jealous from the bottom of his heart, but no one dared to raise any objections.

King Zhou laughed and said: "The national teacher has made great military exploits for the great merchants. How can the lonely king be stingy with rewards? With you sitting in Xiqi, the lonely king can rest easy!"

"Your Majesty's kindness to his ministers is as great as a mountain. As a matter of state, he should spare no effort to protect our great business border."

Han Rong was a little moved. He was originally a prince of a town. If Ji Fa handed over Xiqi City, from Xiqi City to Sishuiguan, this large piece of land would be his own territory, and he would become the biggest prince in the world. .

King Zhou nodded.
