Zhao Min frowned and said, "When the envoy of Yi State was summoned just now, besides urging the widow to send troops, he also mentioned one thing, saying that it is best to make peace with Fanbang first when attacking Shun State, lest they come to make trouble when it happens, so Yi State thought Send back some of the captured foreign generals, for this reason, please allow this envoy to pass through the border, and now I think most of the envoys that will be sent to the country of Yi are to propose marriage."

"Did the king agree at that time?" Jing Yan asked anxiously.

"No, what I thought at the time was that we have also divided some prisoners here, and if Yi Guo wants to send them back, should we do the same? I couldn't make up my mind for a while, so I didn't agree to him immediately."

Jing Yan breathed a sigh of relief, and said: "It's very good, if the envoys of the Yi Kingdom enter the Fan Kingdom, it will be difficult."

Zhao Min said worriedly: "But Yi Guo sent troops to rescue us twice. It's hard to deny the fact that there are excuses. We can't let Yi Guo have any quarrels now. Otherwise, we will fight on three sides. If we really fight, we will be defeated." It's just this one, He Ran... Hey!." In front of the military adviser, Zhao Min didn't want to say more about He Ran's strength, so he stopped talking in time.

Jing Yan naturally heard the meaning behind the words, just smiled, thought for a while and said: "Let's try to delay as much as possible, um..., yes, according to what the king thought at the time, I told the envoy of Yi Guo, We are also planning to send back the captured foreign generals, it is better for the two countries to send them off together, let Yi Guo wait for us for a while, because those prisoners have been scattered to various military camps, and it will take ten and a half months to gather them together."

Zhao Min nodded and said, "This Yi Guo should have no objections, but delaying the matter for ten and a half months won't help. How can we completely destroy this marriage?"

Jing Yan squeezed his slightly closed eyes a few times, and said: "Send someone to assassinate the princess and that's all."

After hearing this, Zhao Min stood up, frowning and paced back and forth.

Jing Yan hastily got up and stood up.

"It's straightforward to do this, but... I'm worried that I won't be able to hide it from He Ran. Once the princess dies, he will suspect us. Princess Fanbang died in his territory. I really want to piss him off, this guy can turn his back on everything he says, and he can always find an excuse to start a war with us. Have you noticed that he sent so many envoys, but he never mentioned the land cession. Before he sent troops to Xiping, the widow made a promise to him. I think it's not that he didn't want it out of kindness, but that he kept it all the time. If he wants to start a war, he can make a fuss about it and let us cut Some key places as rewards, that's..." Zhao Min shook his head slightly.

"Your Majesty's concerns are very reasonable." When the strategy was rejected, Jing Yan didn't care at all, and his face was still full of wisdom, "I still have a plan, but I have to first pardon my minister's crime of lying before I dare to speak out. "

Looking at Jing Min's calm and composed appearance, Zhao Min knew that his second strategy would not be bad, so he couldn't help being in a good mood, and said with a smile: "The military division is joking, I regard the military division as brothers and sisters, even if you say treasonous words, the widow will not Will laugh it off."

Jing Yan was moved in his heart, and got up to thank him.

"Sit down and talk, sit down and talk, there is no need to be polite."

"I'd better stand up and say it. If the king thinks this plan is feasible, I will congratulate the king by the way."

Zhao Min was very puzzled, and asked with a smile: "He Xi is what the military adviser wants to ask?"

"Naturally, it's a happy wedding."

"This..." Zhao Min seemed to have guessed something, but he couldn't figure it out for a while, "Military teacher should make it clear, I can't think of the mystery."

Jing Yan got closer and said in a low voice: "Let's send envoys to Fanbang to propose marriage first, and ask the princess to be the queen by name. As long as Fanwang agrees, then He Ran will only suffer from being dumb. Your Majesty, think about it. Talking about marriage before Lang's funeral is over will make people in the world look down upon him. Naturally, they don't dare to announce that they want to marry the princess, and they even deliberately conceal it. Then we will not offend Yi Guo by proposing marriage, and those who don't know it will not be offended. We can justifiably go to the country of Yi to ask for someone, the princess is not a secret thing in the country of Yi, and there is nothing wrong with us doing this."

Zhao Min's face changed from sunny to cloudy. After thinking for a while, he said worriedly, "What if that's He Ran..."

There was a sneer at the corner of Jing Yan's mouth, and he said: "Your Majesty, don't worry too much. Once we have a marriage contract with Fanbang, He Ran may not dare to make trouble for us as he wants now. At that time, he will not only help If we can't get Kanguo, we still have to put our tails between our faces and act according to our faces. Your Majesty, please think about it, Shunguo and Yiguo have an inextricable hatred. The reason why Yiguo has no scruples now is because Shunguo will indeed be powerless for a while. Backlash, we have internal and external troubles and it is impossible to threaten the country of Yi, but once we marry Fanbang, the situation will be completely different. Although Fanbang has also been hit hard, there are still many soldiers who can fight. Power, isn’t the country of Yi able to be destroyed in one blow? Hmph, I don’t believe that He Ran has the power to protect the country of Yi in such a situation.”

Zhao Min stood up again, then sat down slowly, stared at Jing Min and said, "Are you sure that King Fan will agree to the marriage?"

Jing Yan smiled confidently, and said: "Your Majesty is very shrewd, it is not appropriate to ask such a question, even if the king finds out about his sister's exile in Yi Country, he can do nothing, Yi Guo just beat them up. Great defeat, the two countries have forged enmity, to ask for the princess can only be self-defeating, and the robbery is separated from our Zhao country and Shun country. It is to give King Fan a chance to save his sister. This kind of good thing is not afraid that he will not agree. Let’s arrange with King Fan privately about the princess’s suffering in the country of change. According to the information I got, King Fan loves this little sister very much. Yes, he can't help but refuse to agree at that time, besides, marrying us is also a good thing for Fanbang, while we promise generous gifts, we can propose that we will share Shun Kingdom equally with Fanbang in the future. With Fanbang's help, we can get rid of Yiguo and divide it up Shunguo's dream, He Ran, doesn't have to be fulfilled."

After hearing this, Zhao Min felt relieved and said with a laugh: "Heaven-given military advisor and widow! With the help of a military advisor, why should I be afraid of that!"

Jing Yan smiled modestly and said: "It's not too late, whoever takes the lead now can't delay for a moment."

"Your widow, I will send an envoy to Fanbang!" Zhao Min was about to call someone, when he thought of something, he said to Jing Min, "We have to be more lenient in dealing with Yiguo, and it's not good to do it first, after all, they helped us. I also made an oath in front of He Ran that I would never send troops to Yi State first, and I must not break my promise to the world."

Jing Yan raised his finger and said: "Just listening to this statement, you can know that the king's ambition is not in one city or one place. Please remember, as long as we marry Fanbang, Yi Guo will not be able to do anything under our scrutiny." , it won’t hurt to let it live for a few years.”

In the afternoon, shortly after the envoy of the Kingdom of Yi came out of the palace, a carrier pigeon hovered over Dingyang City for a while, and then flew away quickly.
