Chapter 279 Your Majesty, Qin Guan may have a different heart

"Sir, please listen to Yuqing's words."

"At that time, Emperor Taizong personally led four armies, and 50 soldiers wanted to retake Yanyun Sixteen Prefectures, but failed. In the past 50 years since then, our Great Zhao Kingdom has launched four major wars, all of which ended in failure."

"In order to capture the sixteen prefectures of Yanyun, no less than 50 soldiers were killed and wounded in Zhao State, and countless supplies were invested. Several ancestors of my Han family also participated in the battle to capture the sixteen prefectures of Yanyun many times. For this reason, the Han family Seven people were also sacrificed."

Speaking of this, Han Yuqing smiled faintly at Qin Guan and said:

"My lord also knows the importance of the Yanyun sixteen prefectures to our country of Zhao. Now that I have the opportunity to get it back, I think my lord should marry the seventh princess of the Liao country. It should be a sacrifice for the country, but it can be given to the big Zhao country. Seek a hundred years of peace for the people of Dazhao."

Qin Guan was shocked, he didn't expect Han Yuqing to say these words.

Qin Guandao: "Yuqing, this is too unfair to you. My husband will think of other ways to get the Sixteen States of Yanyun."

Han Yuqing shook her head, "Sanggong's method is nothing more than war. I believe that Xianggong is invincible in the world, but war always kills people. Soldiers also have relatives and children. They have died enough."

"As for me, I don't think there's anything unfair. It's not that I'm asked to leave my husband. Ping's wife is also a wife. Yuqing is already content with being able to stay with her husband."

Even Lu Sheng and Feng Lun were moved by Han Yuqing's words. They walked to Han Yuqing's side, straightened their robes, and bowed in unison.

This is a great gift.

Seeing the emperor is the etiquette.

They were moved by Han Yuqing's sentiment of sacrificing himself for the country and the people.

In the end, Qin Guan nodded.

But this is only the first step, and it is not enough for them to agree. It must be reported to His Majesty the Emperor, and the emperor will allow this matter to proceed.

"Fluffling~"

A few homing pigeons flew south.

Three days later, in the Royal Study Room of the Imperial Palace of Jinling City, Zhao State.

After reading the secret letter, the emperor fell into deep thought in silence for a long time.

The content of this letter is very long. There is a peace treaty negotiated with the Liao Kingdom. The emperor is very satisfied with Lu Sheng's achievements, which have greatly exceeded his expectations.

What made him deep in thought was about the emperor of the Liao Kingdom marrying the princess to Qin Guan. The secret letter was written in great detail, starting from Qin Guan's killing of the first general of the Liao Kingdom, Xiao Tianzuo, in a martial arts competition, to the signing of the agreement, and to The Emperor Liao gave the marriage, Qin Guan's reaction, and Han Yuqing's persuasion to Qin Guan were all reported.

Li Chaoen watched carefully from the side, not daring to make a sound.

After reading this secret letter, his heart was also churning endlessly.

I didn't expect that such a big commotion would come out after a good peace talk.

After a long time, the emperor finally spoke.

"Call four ministers, envoys of the Privy Council, doctor of imperial censors, three academicians of the Imperial Academy, and six ministers to the Hall of Wende for discussion."

Half an hour later, all the ministers felt Wende Hall, and the emperor came to the main hall with a calm face. After everyone saw the ceremony, the emperor sat in the main seat and said to Li Chaoen: "Chaoen, inform the family of the peace talks."

Li Chaoen quickly stood up and told everyone the result of the peace talks. The ministers in the hall were all happy that they could eliminate the old coins and take back Yizhou and Daizhou. This is definitely the most elated time for Zhao Guo in decades.

"Your Majesty, it is absolutely gratifying for us to be able to take back the two states this time. The peace talks envoys have contributed a lot."

"The peace talks are successful. I think the border can be peaceful for a while, and the Liao Kingdom will not go south easily."

"Congratulations to Your Majesty for Wenzhi martial arts." Someone flattered at the right time.

The emperor also looked happy and nodded.

Glancing around the ministers, the emperor said again: "There is one more thing that I want to discuss with you. If this thing is done, the Liao Kingdom may lose the Sixteen States of Yanyun."

Everyone was very surprised.

The emperor slowly told the story of Qin Guan, and finally said, "My dear friends, what do you think of this matter?"

When everyone heard it, they already felt that it was a fantasy. Many people have not yet woken up from this shocking news.

A gleam flashed in Zeng Yu's eyes.

At this time, someone suddenly stood up and said, "Your Majesty, I do not agree."

The emperor saw that it was Huang Kun, a scholar of the Imperial Academy, and the emperor asked, "What does Huang Qing's family want to say?"

Huang Kun's beard was already a little gray, and he said sonorously: "Since ancient times, in the whole world, could it be the land of the king, the shore of the land, and the minister of the king? The princess of Liao Kingdom was married to Qin Guan, and the dowry was the sixteen prefectures of Yanyun. But they demanded not to give it to the State of Zhao, could it be that they are still thinking about establishing a state within a state between our Great Zhao and the Liao State?"

"Qin Guan is a minister of Zhao Guo. Yanyun sixteen prefectures took it back and had to hand it over to Zhao Guo. There is no reason why a minister occupies such a large land."

After hearing this, many people nodded.

At this time, someone stood up and said, "Master Huang, I'm afraid this matter will not be easy. This is the condition put forward by the Liao Kingdom. If they don't agree, they will definitely not give it. I think it's better to let Qin Guan marry the princess of the Liao Kingdom first, take back the land, and then After handing it over to the country, wouldn’t our country of Zhao take back the sixteen prefectures of Yanyun?”

"Yes, this is also a good way." Someone immediately echoed.

At this time, Zeng Yu cast a glance at Liu Kuan, Minister of the Ministry of Officials, Liu Kuan understood, stood up and said, "Your Majesty, I think there is something strange about this matter. Sending away the Sixteen States of Yanyun and sending away a princess because of a gambling fight is unreasonable, and I'm afraid there is a deep meaning in it."

The emperor looked at Liu Kuan: "What's the meaning?"

Liu Kuan said: "Your Majesty, Liao Kingdom's move must contain conspiracy, or even, there may be an ulterior transaction."

The emperor's eyes narrowed.

Seeing Zeng Yu's commanding gaze, Liu Kuan gritted his teeth and said, "Your Majesty, I think Qin Guan has ulterior motives and has the heart to become a king on his own. I implore Your Majesty to issue an order immediately to take Qin Guan down and bring him back to Jinling for trial."

Someone looked at Liu Kuan like a monster.

Xin said, are you stupid if you are paralyzed, move him now, he is now holding a large army outside, and he is still the most important person in the peace talks, arresting Qin Guan now, isn't it in the hands of the Liao people.

Besides, is it moving?

Now who can move him, is it because of a guess that he will force against the general in front.

The emperor looked up at Liu Kuan, then cast a sidelong glance at Ceng Yu, and said nothing.

The people in the hall were still discussing non-stop. In the end, the political views were divided into two, one was not to take it back, the other was to take it back, and the majority was to take it back, because it was the desire of every Zhao people to take back the Yanyun Sixteen Prefectures.

As for the method, I talked about it in all kinds of ways, and in the end the emperor didn't express his position, as if he was just listening to their opinions.

After discussing for two hours, the emperor told them to go home and rest.
