Chapter 439 0435 [Blessings come from disasters, misfortunes come from blessings]

That night.

In the study room of Chui Gong Hall, Shi Wenhui and Zhang Shuye stood there quietly with solemn expressions.

If someone is called into the palace by an official at night, there must be important matters to discuss.

"sit."

Han Zhen greeted.

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for granting me a seat."

The two of them cupped their hands and sat down in front of the desk, their bodies straightened.

Han Zhen took a sip of tea and said unhurriedly: "The Secret Intelligence Department intercepted a piece of information. Zhao Song is preparing to unite with the Kingdom of Jin to attack the Kingdom of Qi."

As soon as they finished speaking, their expressions changed.

Wanyan Zonghan had been accompanying Aguda's cavalry to conquer the Liao Dynasty since he was a child. After more than ten years of fighting in the north and south, he had already built up an army and direct lineage of his own.

"The Song-Jin Alliance, just like the Maritime Alliance a few years ago, is a conspiracy and a general trend. The general trend can be met and cannot be avoided. The public opinion offensive can play some role, but it is not enough to counter the general trend."

Zhang Shuye's eyes lit up: "Yes, once the Jin State's offensive is frustrated, Wanyan Wu Qimai can propose a truce. After the Jin State's truce, His Majesty can take this opportunity to legitimately attack the Song State, regain the south, and unify North and south. As the saying goes, good fortune lies where misfortunes lie, and misfortune lies where blessings rely."

Calculated in this way, naturally there will not be much left in Wu Qimai's hands.

Han Zhen denied: "I'm afraid it will be difficult. If Wanyan Zonghan and Wanyan Zongwang join forces, Wu Qimai will not have much say."

Big fists are the last word.

Zhang Shuye said humbly: "Your Majesty is ridiculous. We are just talking about war on paper. In the end, we still need to rely on the soldiers to fight to the death."

Shi Wenhui shook his head: "Zhao and Song want to seize the Chinese orthodoxy, and the Jin people are peeking at the wealth in the south. The interests of Song and Jin are the same, so how can they easily give up the alliance and attack Qi? Even if Zhang Canjun goes, the monarchs and ministers of Zhao and Song will definitely deny it and make false promises. A secret plan was carried out to seize Chen Cang."

Han Zhen showed a smile on his face and said appreciatively: "With my two beloved ladies here, I have nothing to worry about."

The two of them exchanged words with each other and quickly sketched out a strategic blueprint.

Hearing this, Zhang Shuye thought it made sense, so he changed his strategy and said: "The Jin Kingdom is not monolithic. The Jin people's invasion to the south will not be beneficial to Wanyan Wu's begging for purchases. Your Majesty can try to start from the inside of the Jin Kingdom."

The dignified emperor was pulled down from the throne in public and beaten. It is conceivable how weak the imperial power Wu Qi bought was.

As the legitimate son of Aguda, Wanyan Zongwang was born with an advantage. He took over all the troops under Aguda's command.

The strategy of the two of them was almost the same as what Han Zhen thought.

How could Zhao Song be so shameless in colluding with the barbarians and attacking his brothers and allies?

Zhang Shuye had just sat down and stood up quickly. He said solemnly: "Qi and Song Dynasties have just signed the Yangzhou Alliance and become brothers and friends. However, Song State betrayed its trust and colluded with foreign enemies to invade its friendly countries. I would like to send envoys to Song State to express my gratitude to them. The monarchs and ministers of the Song Dynasty made clear their interests and made them abandon the alliance with the Jin Kingdom and attack Daqi."

Shi Wenhui suggested: "I think that we can use the memorial hall to publicize and accuse Zhao Song of betraying his trust. In this way, Zhao Song will definitely lose the support of the people."

Zhang Shuye paused briefly and continued: "The current plan is to prepare for war, make all-out firearms and artillery, and send a large number of secret agents to sneak into the Song and Jin countries to spy on intelligence and predict the enemy's opportunities. At the same time, send envoys Send an envoy to Xixia to stabilize Xixia, and we must not let Xixia join in. Otherwise, we will be surrounded by enemies on all sides, and our great Qi will be in danger."

Wu Qimai felt very aggrieved as the emperor. The reason was that he did not have much military power.

Especially Zhang Shuye, his eyes were shocked at first, and then felt incredible.

The Three Kingdoms' attack on Qi is both a crisis and an opportunity.

Shi Wenhui added: "The three families of Zhong, Yao and Liu are committed to your majesty and can block Xixia by then. Your majesty can also secretly contact Yelu Dashi. I believe that Yelu Dashi will never miss this good opportunity. Once the hinterland of the Jin Kingdom is attacked, he will definitely Send troops back to defend, but Zhao and Song are weak and the soldiers are corrupt, which means that we, Qi Dynasty, only need to stop the Jin from going south."

Han Zhen ordered: "The two beloved ministers will go back and write a report, improve the strategy, add details, and submit it at that time."

"I accept your order!"

They both raised their hands in response.

"It's getting late, please go back and rest early."

"Wei Chen resigns!"

……

The next day.

Early in the morning, Han Zhen ordered his horse to enter the palace to pay an audience.

"Wei Chen has met your Majesty."

Ma Kuo was wearing a brand new official uniform and was in high spirits.

Han Zhen asked: "How is the Ministry of Foreign Affairs being established?"

Ma Kuo said enthusiastically: "The framework has been set, but two old friends have not yet arrived. The minister has selected a few good talents from the Taixue, and added them to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs as supplementary officials, and trained them carefully. I will definitely be able to stand alone in the future.”

Han Zhen said: "Let's put aside the matters of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs for now. I have an important errand that I cannot do without my love!"

Ma Kuo said sternly: "Your Majesty, I will do my best to repay your kindness!" Han Zhen quickly and briefly explained the Song and Jin alliance, and then said: "I want you to go on a mission. Travel to the Western Regions, contact Yelu Dashi, and join forces to attack the gold. This journey is far away, tens of thousands of miles long, and needs to pass through vast deserts. In order not to attract attention, I can only send a hundred soldiers to escort you there. "

"I am willing to go!"

Ma Kuo said solemnly.

"Okay, I really saw you right."

As soon as Han Zhen took pictures of the case, he ordered: "Kaifeng is thousands of miles away from Kedun City, so contact is difficult, so I allow you to take advantage of Aiqing's mission this time!"

Ma Kuo bowed and said, "I would like to thank your Majesty for your trust!"

Han Zhen said: "My dear, please go back and make preparations. We will set off in a few days."

"Wei Chen resigns!"

Ma Kuo turned around and left.

"and many more."

At this moment, Han Zhen stopped him and warned him: "If something cannot be done, I don't have to force you. I will keep the green hills without fear of running out of firewood. I will not blame you."

He is not an unreasonable person. Thousands of miles away, for this era, it is almost like a natural chasm.

In order to prevent Yelu Dashi from becoming bigger, the Jin Kingdom raised 60,000 troops to attack Kedun City.

As a result, the 60,000 Jin army got lost in the vast desert, and more than half of them were killed or injured. In desperation, they had to go back home.

Ma Kuo only has a hundred people, and the chance of successfully reaching Keyun City is honestly less than 30%.

At this time, Ma Kuo felt his nose was sore and his heart was extremely moved.

Holding back the tears in his eyes, he bowed and said, "I'm sorry for you!"

Watching Ma Kuo leave, Yan Jie, who was standing in the corner, sighed in his heart.

A scholar dies for a confidant.

It would be better if Your Majesty didn't say it. Once he did, Ma Kuo would definitely sacrifice his life to repay your kindness.

……

……

On the Wuzhang River, there are many ships.

Boats traveling from south to north are constantly passing through the wide river.

"This is the city of Tokyo. It's really prosperous. It's just a pier, and it's a bit more lively than an ordinary county town."

On the second floor of a treasure ship, Lin Wanqing looked through the window at the dock in the distance with a look of amazement.

"The city is more prosperous."

Li Qingzhao smiled slightly and introduced: "Every day the Daxiangguo Temple is open, there are thousands of stalls and more than 100,000 tourists, which is quite spectacular."

After leaving Yidu and Zhao Mingcheng, Li Qingzhao felt much more relaxed.

Lin Wanqing pursed her lips and smiled: "I always heard my sister mention Fan Lou, and Youyou also said it in her letter. Now I can finally visit it in person."

She has an innocent and innocent temperament, and Ma Shuyao inherited it from her, but in the past, she suppressed herself all day long because of her identity.

Now that she has arrived in the capital, she has a vague feeling of being back as a young girl, free and unrestrained.

"Fan Lou."

A trace of reminiscence flashed in Li Qingzhao's eyes. That high-rise building, full of glamour, glamour, and romance, carried many of her memories.

Lin Wanqing asked: "What's going on with Fan Lou? Why did my sister stop mid-sentence?"

Li Qingzhao joked: "Fan Tower is a gold sales den, you have to prepare money. Sister, I am a pauper now, don't expect me to pay the bills."

While talking, the treasure ship gradually sailed into the dock and docked on the shore.

"Auntie Li!"

At this moment, familiar cheers sounded in my ears.

Looking through the sound, I saw a small face with bright eyes and white teeth peeking out of the window of a carriage, waving to the two of them with a smile on its face.

"long!"

Lin Wanqing was happy to see her daughter.
