The Summoning World of the Great Qin Empire

Chapter 606 Negotiations
Chen Zi'ang looked around and made sure that this was Wang Meng's usual military account, so he took out a letter of credentials from himself, and looked at Wang Meng solemnly.

"My lord, this is the letter of credence written by my majesty the emperor."

Hearing this, Wang Meng also showed some respect for the superiors. When there were no Qin people, there was no problem with how the people on his side wanted to humiliate the Great Qin Emperor.

But now that there are officials from the state of Qin, if I continue to say this, it will appear that I have no self-cultivation, and it will only make the world laugh at me.

This can be regarded as the best quality of a human being.

After patting the dust off his sleeves, Wang Meng stood up and straightened his clothes.

Chen Zi'ang walked forward respectfully, and there was some respect for Wang Meng in his eyes.

Sure enough, the respect between people is mutual.

"Please take a look, my lord!"

Chen Ziang said.

Wang Meng took the letter of credence and looked through it with a serious expression. Is there a flash of light in his eyes? Although there is no change in his facial expression, it already shows the excitement in his heart.

"This is not something I can decide on my own. I need to report it to my general before I can give an approval on this matter."

Chen Ziang nodded and said: "As a subject, I have already tried my best to plan for the monarch. Are we waiting for the King of Chu's reply?"

"This..." Wang Meng pondered for a moment, nodded and said: "Yes, the two adults stay here, I can guarantee your safety, but Dantu Water City is the most important thing when we come to Chu Kingdom. Absolutely no outsiders are allowed to peep.

How about this? Thirty miles east of Dantu Water City, there is a house where the two envoys live. How about waiting for my king's reply? "

Chen Ziang and Du Shenyan looked at each other, and felt that this was not too much.

This time they came, the state of Chu had already given enough respect, and it would be too much to force Liu to stay in the water city.

"Respect is worse than obedience!"

Chen Ziang hastily cupped his hands.

"Very good, I will now send General Xiang Zhuang to escort the two adults to the compound. As for the Qin State, I will also ask the two envoys to leave a letter to avoid unnecessary misunderstandings." Wang Meng said in unison. Said, clapped his palms, and a guard walked in from outside the military tent, holding a pen, ink, paper and inkstone in his hand.

Chen Ziang nodded and said: "This is what it should be." Immediately, he picked up his pen and began to write, and within less than a cup of tea, he had already written everything.

To show his sincerity, Chen Ziang sent the letter to Wang Meng, and said with a smile, "In order to show my sincerity in Qin and Chu's cessation of war, please read it."

Wang Meng didn't refuse anything, picked it up directly, read every single word from the beginning to the end, and then smiled with satisfaction.

"If there is any dissatisfaction, the envoy just needs to send someone to say it, and I will definitely meet the envoy's request here."

"Then write the adults first."

Chen Ziang hurriedly cupped his hands, at this time Du Shenyan also stood up, and the two of them came to the tower under the leadership of Wang Meng.

In the north shore barracks, Sima Yi led a group of fierce generals, almost without blinking, staring at the top of the tower all the time. What they were most afraid of seeing was two heads sent back.

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief when they saw Chen Ziang and Du Shenyan appearing alive on the tower.

They still don't know how the negotiations are going, but seeing how the two are moving freely now, at least it shows that the negotiation has not collapsed.

Soon, a soldier of the Chu army took ten sergeants, took off their armor, and rowed a fast boat towards the north bank.

Li Shunchen looked at it and asked curiously, "What are the Chu people doing? Could it be that they left the two envoys there?"

"Don't worry, wait until they come over." Sima Yi said calmly.

Let's say that the general of the Chu army came outside the North Shore barracks with a letter, and shouted loudly: "May I ask who is the left general of the Great Qin Dynasty, General Sima Yi?"

Sima Yi got up, walked outside the building, across a large river, and said loudly: "This general is Sima Yi, the left general of the Great Qin Dynasty. What do you want from me? Why don't you send our envoy back?"

The general of the Chu State shouted: "General Zuo, here is a letter written by your envoy from the State of Qin!"

After finishing this paragraph, the general of Chu State grabbed the letter in his hands and lifted it above his head.

When Sima Yi heard this, he glanced at one of the generals beside him. This general quickly rowed a boat, led five or six soldiers into the water, and took the letter back from the Chu warrior.

Sima Yi looked at it, nodded and said, "I already know about it, so go back and report to me."

Chu Guowufu nodded, then directed the soldiers to row the boat, and hurried back.

The Qin army camp on the north bank is full of enemies, and anyone who comes here will be frightened.

This feeling is almost the same as when Chen Ziang and Du Shenyan arrived in the Chu camp.

It's just that Chen Ziang can restrain this feeling of fear, which is difficult for ordinary people.

Seeing that the general had returned, Wang Meng did not hesitate, and directly ordered Xiang Zhuang to take the two of them away, and went to the courtyard to wait for news.

Xiang Zhuang was speechless all the way, so he brought the two of them to that house, and called the housekeeper here, and told him: "These two are our distinguished guests from the state of Chu, you have to entertain them well, if you come out If you made the slightest mistake, I will cut off your head and make amends to the two guests."

Du Shenyan and Chen Ziang couldn't help laughing when they heard Xiang Zhuang say this.

Du Shenyan said: "The general said that it is serious, one sack of bean soup is enough."

Chen Ziang also nodded his head: "Tanshi bean soup is enough!"

However, Xiang Zhuang seemed to have not listened to what the two said, and directly ordered: "You must have good wine and good meat to serve you every day. If the two adults want Meiji to accompany you, you must also."

"Here!"

The steward wouldn't really think what the two guys in front of him said, just give him some soy milk and steamed buns.

These literati have always been very sour.

After Xiang Zhuang made the arrangements, he bowed his hands slightly to Chen Ziang and Du Shenyan and said: "Everything has been arranged, the two envoys will rest here, and from here to Ying, please ask my king for instructions. For half a month, if there is anything uncomfortable, you must send someone to inform me, and remember not to make the two envoys suffer, lest people say that I, Chu, do not know how to treat guests."

Chen Ziang hurriedly cupped his hands and said, "The general is serious."

"Yeah, the general is serious, this place is very good." Du Shenyan also said with a slight smile, and chimed in from the side.

"Farewell!"

Xiang Zhuang took a meaningful look at the two people in front of him, and then left.

Only then did Chen Ziang say: "Old Du, do you think this matter can be successful?"

"It will definitely succeed!" Du Shenyan would think: "Did you see that after Wang Meng read His Majesty's letter of credence, he almost didn't even think about it, and he was already going to give the letter of credence to Xiang... the king of Chu checked it, Thinking about coming here, I also have the idea of ​​​​talking to me."

"If that's the case..." Chen Zi'ang turned his eyes and said with a smile, "I heard that Du Fu, the son of Duke Du, has a good friend who leads troops in the Mangrove Forest Army Village."

"That's right, Li Bai is someone that His Majesty values ​​very much." Du Shenyan couldn't figure out why Chen Ziang said that, so he said casually, took a sip of the tea in front of him.

Chen Zi'ang said with a smile: "Old Du, after this matter is completed, His Majesty will definitely reward you and me. At that time, Chen doesn't want any rewards. He just hopes to stay in Hancheng. Chen also has something in his heart." He is passionate and wants to make contributions on the battlefield."

"Haha..." Du Shenyan said with a smile: "Chen Zi'ang, Chen Zi'ang, you think that our civil servants are promoted too slowly, so you are here to become martial arts."

Du Shenyan let Chen Ziang out of his mind, so he simply admitted it frankly.

When a man is alive, he should naturally stand upright and pursue fame and wealth.

Not many people are saints like Zhuang Zhou who are willing to live in poverty for life.

"That's right, someone has that intention." Chen Zi'ang said: "Once I make peace with Chu State, I will send troops from Fengcheng and Yancheng, that is, the Huaishui area, directly to the north to attack Liu Bang's hinterland.

In the area of ​​Zhongyi City, there are already more than [-] troops under the command of General Bai Qi. Even if I get there, I may not be able to do anything, but it is different in the south. Someone will definitely stay in the area from Guangling City to Wuguan . "

"It is impossible for me to hand over my back completely to the state of Chu, and it is also impossible for the state of Chu to hand over its back to me.

Therefore, some people will be left to garrison these places, and the remaining people who can be transferred to the north to attack Liu Bang's hinterland will not be left behind. This is my chance to make contributions! "

Du Shenyan listened, pondered for a long time, and then said: "Have you really thought about it? The situation on the battlefield has changed completely, and if you are not careful, you will lose your name. This is no joke."

"I've made up my mind!" Chen Ziang said seriously, "There is a saying, please don't laugh at Mr. Du!"

Hearing what Chen Ziang said, Du Shenyan showed a bit of displeasure on his face: "Although you and I are of different ages, we can say that we have lived and died together. If there is anything else, the old man will make fun of you. your?"

"Don't be angry, Mr. Du!" Chen Zi'ang cupped his hands quickly and said, "Du Fu is now young and has been entrusted with a heavy responsibility. Even if the family survives to be a servant, this rating is probably not a difficult thing."

"This..." Du Shenyan showed a hesitant look on his face: "Although His Majesty is currently among them, there is no better way to know a son than a father. My son, who writes articles and poems is not bad, but he is not the talent of Dazai."

"Old man Du is serious!" Chen Ziang continued: "There are no official positions in the imperial court. Even if there are some, it will take many years. Naturally, I can't wait, so I have seen this time. I intend to seek opportunities here."
