Competing

Chapter 448

There is a reason why Yin Xu agreed to let Lu Yi stay in Shanyin!

The current national policy of the Yue State is the Western Expedition, so the Han-Vietnamese alliance is unnecessary and cannot be carried out, otherwise it may be restricted in many places.Not only that, Yin Xu didn't want to be used by Liu Bang in such a muddle.So naturally there was no way to talk about the marriage, and naturally he would not agree, or even give Li Shiqi face to express his dissatisfaction.

But dissatisfaction should be stopped in moderation, there are no permanent enemies, and there are no permanent friends.As long as the common enemy of the Western Chu State exists, there will be a basis for cooperation between the Yue State and the Han State, and it is a fact that it cannot be agreed now.But it does not mean that there will be no opportunities for cooperation in the future. Leaving this little princess of the Han Dynasty is tantamount to leaving a possibility, which may be useful in the future.

You don't have to be too extreme in doing things, it's like this all the time.As for the little princess, Yin Xu wondered if it was the little girl he rescued?Does she really like herself, and is she willing to marry to Yue.Whether it is true or not is not important, anyway, for a short time, I can only feed him with good food and drink.As for meeting or other things, it is definitely impossible, and now I have to wrong her!

……

Li Shiqi set off to leave just a few days after arriving in Jiangdong. Just like the greeting when he arrived, the farewell was quite grand.Chen Ping, the prime minister of the Yue Kingdom, personally sent them out of Shanyin, and the general Pu Jun escorted them out of Jiangdong, and returned by water via the original Linjiang State Road.

When he left, Li Shiqi didn't have the vigor and vigor he had when he arrived. It can be said that he left sadly and depressed.With a lot of regrets, the main task assigned by the King of Han was not completed, but fortunately, some news was obtained.However, it seems that these harvests were not discovered or explored by themselves, but were told by the Yue people themselves.

In any case, this news is of great significance to the Han Kingdom, and it is necessary to rush back as soon as possible to report to the King of Han for an early response, so as not to be caught off guard in the future.

In such helplessness, Li Shiqi left Jiangdong as if lost...

On the same day that Li Shiqi's ship left Jiangdong, the Yue Kingdom and important ministers gathered together and began to discuss specific matters on the southern front!
"Has Li Shiqi left?" Yin Xu asked after he sat down.

Chen Pingdao: "It's already gone, I think it has already entered the territory of Linjiang Kingdom in the afternoon!"

Yin Xu nodded and said: "Okay, he's gone, we're going to start our big business now! This time Li Shiqi went south under the banner of the marriage between Han and Vietnam. I think Xiang Yu and other princes have already received the news. If they believe it, it will inevitably lead to some unnecessary troubles. So we must deal with it and eliminate misunderstandings!"

"How does Your Majesty want to clear up the misunderstanding?"

Yin Xu said: "It's time for the Western Expedition to begin! War is the best way to express national policy, which is much more effective than talking about it. Linjiang Kingdom thinks that we have formed an alliance with the Han Kingdom, so we will now go to the Western Expedition to give Linjiang One kind of Wang is the illusion that Liu Bang tacitly supports our conquest, leaving Linjiang country with nowhere to ask for help. In fact, they really don't have any foreign aid now. As for the West Chu country, as long as our army moves, it will be nothing to them Forget about future worries, Bawang Chu and Fan Yafu will definitely understand our intentions, how can such a good opportunity be missed casually."

Chen Pingdao: "What the king said is that now is the best chance to win the Linjiang country. As long as the king does not admit to marrying the little princess of the Han country, this matter cannot be said. Our Western Expedition can be regarded as an indirect expression of our intentions. It's just that In this way, Hanwang Liu Bang must feel that we have tricked him!"

Wei Liao said with a smile: "Then there is no other way, they are the ones who don't respect Yue State first, some things can't be blamed on others!"

Yin Xu asked: "Chen Ping, is the matter of food and grass ready?"

Chen Ping replied: "As early as two months ago, the minister had already started preparations. Most of the grain and grass in Fanyi, Oujiang, and central Fujian had been concentrated in Fanyi. The grain and grass in Wuzhong had also been transported along the Dajiang River. Yuzhang, some of the ships left behind by the Xu family have also been gathered in Peng Lize, and we will do our best to ensure the transportation of our army's soldiers and food!"

Yin Xu nodded and said, "Very well. Ensuring sufficient food and grass on the front line is one thing. We must also ensure that the food prices in the capital and the big city are stable. Don't make any mistakes! I will find Miss Fan Yilan to find a solution for this matter. You are down below. Just do a good job of supervision, when fighting on the front line, you must ensure stability in the rear!"

"Mr. Wei Liao, how is the strategic matter?" After Yin Xu explained, he began to ask about other matters.

Wei Liao said with a smile: "The army is divided into two groups. Zhang Han led 3 soldiers and horses to attack from Fanyi. First, they occupied the land of Jiujiang Kingdom in the south of the big river, and then marched westward to reach the water system in the upper reaches of Dongting, and then went along the river. Pu Jun's side is advancing by land and water, with 4000 infantry, [-] sailors, and an additional [-] of us to ensure the transportation of food and grass for the two armies! Both lines will approach the Linjiang capital, forming a situation of encirclement.

The 1 troops in Sujiao will stabilize the defense line along the river, but judging from the current situation, the Western Chu Army will not easily cross the south of the Yangtze River.And maybe the sea water wants us to go west, and the remaining soldiers and horses are mainly concentrated in the capital and major cities! "

Yin Xu nodded and said: "Very well, pass an order to Zhang Han and Pu Jun. On the first day of May, the two armies will start at the same time! This battle is of great importance, and I hope everyone will work together and go all out!"

"Yes!"

On the same day, Yin Xu issued an imperial edict announcing to the world that Fusu's daughter, Ying Ziye, was conferred the title of wife.At the same time, the positions of Li Si, Wei Liao, Zhang Han, Dong Yi and others in Yue State will be disclosed!
Ying Ziye's identity had always been a secret before, and it was justifiable to announce it now.When the Han State announced its marriage with the Yue State in a high-profile manner, the Yue State only conferred the title of the former princess of the Qin State, and did not mention the princess of the Han State.This undoubtedly gave Han a slap in the face, and at the same time showed the world the fact that Han has no alliance with South Korea!

After arranging the Western Expedition, it was already evening, and Yin Xuhui went to visit Luluo in the East Harem.Now Luluo has been pregnant for almost eight months, her lower abdomen is swollen high, and a life is about to be born.This is Yin Xu's first child, whether it is a boy or a girl, Yin Xu really cherishes it.So whenever I have time, I come to visit, care about Luluo and the child, and look forward to the safe birth of the child.

When they came to the bedroom, Li Yuniang and Ying Ziye were also there, and children seemed to be their common topic.Yin Xu was very happy that the three of them got along so harmoniously.

"The child is so happy. The three wives love you very much. They cherish and envy you!" After Yin Xu came in, he couldn't help but uttered such a sentence. He even became jealous of the child, causing the three wives to laugh and scold you. !

Ying Ziye said with a smile: "Now the Han Kingdom sent a little beauty, it is said that it is the girl who was the hero of the king to save the beauty. We thought the king was recalling the past, don't you remember us?"

"Girl, why did you come in and talk more and more sour?" Yin Xu pretended not to be unhappy and said, "I remember that the one who canonized today is a princess of the Qin Kingdom, not some little princess of the Han Kingdom!"

Ying Ziye's pretty face blushed immediately, and now that the canonized edict is issued today, she will be able to meet people openly in the future, that is, the justifiable Mrs. Yue Wang, this joy floated on her pretty face.

"Luluo? How's your health? Is the little guy fussy?" Yin Xu then walked to the side of the couch and asked about Luluo's physical condition with concern. This was his first child, which made him feel a sense of fatherly love and responsibility.

Lu Luo's face was filled with the joy of being a mother, and she said in a low voice: "You are all in good health. Doctor Huang said that the fetal image is very good and the baby is healthy. This small family is quite considerate and not too noisy. Maybe she is a quiet daughter." !"

When she said this, Luluo raised her head slightly to observe her husband's reaction, there was a lot of anticipation in her eyes, but also a lot of worry.She heard from an older servant woman that a flat belly might be a boy, and conversely, a belly with a pointed waist might be a daughter.Judging from the current situation, her stomach is sharper, and the child is not very noisy, so it is more likely to be a daughter.

Now that the husband is the king of Yue, the matter of the child is related to the heir, which is a big deal.Luluo guessed that her husband might care more about boys. She didn't mean that she wanted to give birth to a son so that she could compete for the crown prince in the future, but she was mainly worried that her husband didn't like girls.So today I will try to ask and see what my husband is thinking.

Yin Xu didn't notice the strangeness in Lu Luo's eyes, but gently stroked the swollen belly, and said softly: "Whether it's a man or a woman, they are all our children and our treasures, everyone will love them, and they will love you if you see them." For treasure!"

Seeing Yin Xu's words are very natural, Luluo feels relieved, there is nothing to worry about, as long as her husband likes girls!Li Yuniang and Ying Ziye next to her also breathed a sigh of relief. They both like male and female husbands, and they want one too, but... Seeing that Luluo's belly is getting bigger every day, they see no movement, and they can't help feeling a little anxious.

Yin Xu seemed to see their thoughts, and said with a smile: "Don't worry, you will have children sooner or later, don't worry, both men and women like it!"

After saying a word, the faces of the two girls blushed immediately, but in their hearts they still hoped that they could conceive earlier and give birth to a lovely child...

Yin Xu smiled and said: "Okay, let's talk first, the widow still has some things to go to Fan Yilan, and I will come back to you later!"

Yin Xu is going to talk to Fan Yilan about the distribution of grain, so as to stabilize the price of grain in major cities.But all the ladies misunderstood. Looking at the back of Yin Xu's departure, they all guessed that although the little princess of the Han Dynasty failed to enter the palace.But Miss Fan Yilan has already lived in the palace, and it will be a matter of time before she becomes a legitimate wife!
