    ?

    "My lord's thirty boxes have already been moved!"

    "Really?" Zhou Zheng smiled and came to the study. Thirty boxes of jewels were neatly placed in the study, which was full of jewels.

    "Okay, well done, you will all be rewarded for this matter, take away two of the boxes and reward them to the brothers."

    There are some things that he was very forthright last week. He knew that if he wanted people to work hard for him, he had to satisfy them.

    "Thank you, my lord!"

    The person beside Zhou Zheng said gratefully.

    Zhou Zheng looked at the thirty boxes of jewelry in front of him, and thought of Zhou Heng's helpless state in Nanliang at this time, Zhou Zheng felt satisfied.

    Without these things, he would like to see how Zhou Heng completes the task

    And in Southern Chu.

    Yan Fei returned to Southern Chu with Xing Mingyang's letter.

    "You said that Great Zhou sent envoys to Nanliang and Nantang?"

    "That's right, Lord Xing and I heard about this matter together." Yan Fei explained the situation to the person in front of him in detail.

    Fang Zhongyong.

    The grand master of Southern Chu, the existence of one person in the imperial court and more than ten thousand people, the plan of sending troops from Southern Chu to the Great Zhou this time was Fang Zhongyong's suggestion.

    Combined with Nanliang to send troops to Dazhou.

    "If that's the case, Da Zhou is trying to get rid of the bottom line."

    Fang Zhongyong narrowed his eyes and said.

    "Teacher, what should we do now?"

    "Let's wait and see what happens, and see the reactions of Nanliang and Nantang. Then you can go to the border and inform the border army to retreat 30 miles. Don't give Da Zhou any excuses."

    Fang Zhongyong instructed that they should be more cautious at this time.

    "clear."

    Yan Fei got Fang Zhongyong's order to go to the border immediately

    Nanliang.

    Kyoto.

    The palace.

    Ningde Hall.

    "The envoy of the Great Zhou Dynasty, Zhou Heng, has met His Majesty the Emperor of Nanliang. Long live the Emperor!"

    Zhou Heng brought his envoys to Ningde Hall.

    "Ping body!"

    Xiao Ji said slowly.

    "Thank you, Your Majesty!" Zhou Heng then slowly got up.

    "I don't know why Da Zhou sent envoys here?" Xiao Ji asked Zhou Heng. In fact, this matter was knowingly asking, and everyone knew what Zhou Heng's intention was.

    Now that Nanliang and Nanchu are about to move, Da Zhou naturally came to win over Nanliang.

    "Your Majesty, the foreign ministers came here to hope that Dazhou and Nanliang could form an alliance forever." Zhou Heng explained his purpose of coming.

    "Is it good to be an alliance forever?"

    Xiao Ji looked at Zhou Heng, "Don't I, Nanliang, and Da Zhou have always been friendly?"

    Xiao Ji questioned Zhou Heng, as if to say that Nanliang and Da Zhou had never had any conflicts, and it was Da Zhou who treated the heart of a gentleman with the heart of a villain.

    "That's right, Nanliang and Dazhou have always been friendly, but it's different now. The Nanliang and Nanchu coalition forces are wandering on the border of our Dazhou. I, Dazhou, sent me here to ask what Nanliangji was doing."

    Zhou Heng asked, since everyone understands, there is no need to test each other, just say what you have, and go straight to the point.

    What Zhou Heng meant was very obvious, he was asking what Nanliang wanted to do.

    "Presumptuous, Zhou Heng is not your big Zhou here, and you actually questioned me, the Emperor of Nanliang, above the Ningde Palace?" Someone shouted angrily.

    ?I feel that Zhou Heng is being rude and despising Nanliang.

    "Don't be impatient, my lord. We are all sensible people and know what the other party wants to ask. In this case, why don't you speak concisely. There is no need to test each other. It is good for everyone to ask clearly."

    Zhou Heng retorted.

    If you want to fight, you can fight, if you don't fight, you don't fight, there is no need to put on airs here.

    "I heard that the prince of Da Zhou is a person who can't bear the responsibility. It seems that everyone is wrong today." Xiao Ji said looking at Zhou Heng.

    Xiao Ji didn't expect Zhou Heng to have such courage to question them about Nanliang in the hall.

    "The emperor is serious, Zhou Heng is just telling the truth."

    Zhou Heng replied.

    "In this case, what should I do with Nanliang?" Seeing Zhou Heng answering his question like this, Xiao Ji simply gave Zhou Heng the right to choose Nanliang.

    He wanted Zhou Heng to tell Nan Liang what to do next.

      "Does the emperor really want the ministers to speak?"

    Zhou Heng asked back.

    "Say, no matter what you say, I forgive you!" Xiao Ji wanted to see what kind of things Zhou Heng could say.

    "Okay, if you let the foreign ministers say that it is not easy for Nanliang to send troops to attack us, there are three reasons!"

    Zhou Heng stepped forward and said.

    There are three reasons?

    Everyone looked at Zhou Heng one after another. What was the reason?

    Su Nuanyu also looked at Zhou Heng, what reason could Zhou Heng say?

    "First, Southern Chu is not a partner that can cooperate. Although Southern Chu has a strong army, it lacks credibility. I believe you should still remember that the Southern Chu and Southern Tang coalition forces invaded our border ten years ago. At that time, the two sides entered a stalemate.  Originally, the victory tended to go to the Southern Tang and Southern Chu, but the Southern Chu suddenly rebelled and withdrew its troops back to the court, causing the Southern Tang's lone army to go deep, and was ambushed by our Great Zhou Hundred Wars Army. The Southern Tang army was almost wiped out.  Trust? Isn¡¯t Nanliang afraid of repeating the mistakes of Southern Tang?¡±

    Zhou Heng asked everyone.

    Zhou Heng's words are a theory of condemnation, because what Zhou Heng said is correct. Although Nanchu is strong and strong, it is capricious. This is why Nanchu has not been able to become stronger in recent years, because Nanchu is always concerned about gains and losses.

    "Secondly, please redeem Zhou Heng's rudeness. Did Nanliang really have savings from the war? As far as I know, the disaster in Nanliang was serious the year before last, and the people can be said to have no harvest. I am afraid that there is no food and grass in the treasury granary to support the three armed forces.  Under such circumstances, Nanliang¡¯s sending troops is undoubtedly asking for trouble. Of course, you can buy food and grass from outside, but you know the cost of doing so.  My lords, your majesty should understand a thing or two."

    Zhou Heng said.

    The second reason is that Zhou Heng started from the national conditions of Nanliang. What Zhou Heng said is indeed reasonable. A short-term battle may be okay, but a long-term battle, Nanliang simply cannot afford it. The current Nanliang  Undoubtedly, there was a lot of thunder and little rain.

    Without such a powerful ally as Nanchu, Nanliang would not have dared to act rashly.

    Everyone in the Nanliang Chaotang was silent, and Zhou Heng's words seemed to put a stone on everyone's hearts.

    "Your Excellency has such a sharp mouth. Could it be that you want to use this three-inch tongue to persuade me that Nanliang can't withdraw its troops?" Someone stood up and asked Zhou Heng.

    If Zhou Heng really only used words to say that Nanliang would withdraw his troops, what face would Nanliang have to gain a foothold in the world.

    "My lord, don't worry. I still have a third reason that I didn't say. After I say it, you are deciding whether to send troops or not."

    Zhou Heng said calmly.

    "Tell me about your third reason!"

    Xiao Ji said, the first two Zhou Heng said are reasonable.  He wanted to hear what this third reason was.  (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
