"What happened? Mr. Chao, we are old friends. You can't hide anything from me!"
After entering the palace, Liu Deng naturally sent the young eunuchs aside to rest.
After arriving all the way to the study, Liu Deng asked again.
"Your Majesty, where has the Prime Minister gone?"
Chao Cuo lowered his voice and asked in a low voice.
"He was rescued by the man in black. Many people have seen this"
Liu Deng rolled his eyes at him, and then said without thinking.
"In that case, please remember, Your Majesty, this matter has nothing to do with you!"
Chao Cuo looked around and after confirming that no one was around, he lowered his voice and whispered in Liu Deng's ear.
"Thank you for the reminder, sir!"
Although Chao Cuo didn't say it explicitly, Liu Deng probably understood in his heart that it seemed that the emperor recruited him to Beijing not entirely because of the auspiciousness, but it was probably just a pretext.
???????????????????????????? More importantly, I¡¯m afraid that the emperor wants to beat himself up, but on the other hand, he is afraid that excessive means will cause unnecessary backlash
This made Liu Deng feel inexplicably disappointed. Speaking of which, he was also the emperor's direct grandson in name.
The suspicion between the grandfather and grandson has actually reached this level now.
It seems that the pressure brought by King Liang on the emperor is not ordinary
"Is there nothing else new in Chang'an City?"
Although he was a little disappointed, Liu Deng still asked casually.
"Actually, there is one more thing. The Huns also sent an envoy over. It is said that they have now arrived in Beidi County"
"The Huns? What are they doing here?"
Liu Deng frowned. If the Great Chanyu is not busy digesting them at this time, what does it mean to send an envoy to the people brought back from the Western Regions?
Is it possible that at this time, they still want to get some benefits from the big man?
That¡¯s really a bit desperate!
"Their name is that they are here to visit Princess Yana, and they hope that the big man will open up for business!"
After hearing what Chao Cuo said, Liu Deng finally understood.
It seems that this visit to the princess is just a pretext. The real highlight is to open up the market to the Han Dynasty and exchange ideas with them.
After all, both sides now need a calmer environment.
The Huns are now like full-fed wolves. They need a relatively safe environment to slowly digest the pieces of fat they just swallowed.
The Han Dynasty was about to face a transfer of power, so it naturally needed a relatively stable environment.
¡°If you put it like that, there¡¯s no telling whether the emperor would really agree to their purpose this time¡
"So, Your Majesty wants me to talk about this matter?"
"Your Majesty is wise!"
When Liu Deng raised his head again, he happened to see Chao Cuo's eyes flickering for a while. Although he quickly returned to normal, Liu Deng still caught it keenly!
"If that's the case, then we can't be anxious now! I have something to arrange, Master Chao, give me three days!"
"Your Majesty, let's"
Now Chao Cuo is in a bit of a dilemma. He has no problem. The key is those eunuchs
Although each of these people said they were just minions around the emperor, who knew what they would say after returning to the palace.
"I need to prepare some things to properly welcome the Huns' envoys!"
"Your Majesty, just go ahead and prepare, I will arrange the rest for you!"
After hearing what Liu Deng said, Chao Cuo said directly without any hesitation.
¡° Among the entire court, only Liu Deng had the best idea when it came to dealing with the Huns.
Since he has said so, Chao Cuo naturally has no reason to refuse.
"Then thank you Master Chao! Of course it's been a hard journey all the way. Why don't we ask you to rest in the side hall now, and let me take a rest tonight!"
Liu Deng was not polite and raised his hand towards Chao Cuo.
"Your Majesty, why don't you eat wild vegetables again tonight?"
Chao Cuo also stood up, returned the salute to Liu Deng, and then asked with a smile.
"Hahaha! Sir, you are joking. Isn't that because I am young and frivolous? Please don't take offense!"
"The king is joking. To put it bluntly, Chao Cuo's life was saved by the king. Chao Cuo will never forget this kindness!"
Chao Cuo also suddenly became serious, cupped his hands towards Liu Deng, and then bowed them to the ground.
Last time in the court, if it weren't for Liu Deng's righteous speech, Chao Cuo might have been tricked and killed by Yuan An at this time.
After all, that is the real historical process!
"Master Chao said something serious, Liu Deng just told a few truths. Well, I have other things to do, sir. Let them go and rest first!"
¡°Then Chao Cuo is welcome, Your Majesty, please do so!¡±
After Liu Deng finished speaking, he called Shunzi over and asked him to take Chao Cuo to rest.
After Chao Cuo left, Liu Deng was the only one left in the huge study. Looking at Chao Cuo's back disappearing into the distance, Liu Deng couldn't help but sigh in his heart.
It seems that none of the big guys in history are simple, humble gentlemen like Chao Cuo. How long has passed, and now at this time, he has turned into a real politician.
Although he and Liu Deng were talking sincerely, his eyes were observing Liu Deng's performance as he spoke.
?????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? On the surface, it seemed like Liu Deng was taking the lead, but if we dig deeper, it¡¯s not like Chao Cuo was deliberately guiding it?
First, he used the matter of Xiangrui to prevaricate everyone, and then brought out the matter of Tao Qing. On the one hand, he could test Liu Deng's attitude, and on the other hand, he could make Liu Deng subconsciously think that he and he were on the same side.
After all the hints, the real topic of the Huns was brought up and he continued to test Liu Deng.
After getting a satisfactory answer, Liu Deng used Liu Deng's words to bring the relationship back to the level of a gentleman.
Finally, there is a life-saving ending. Between the forward and backward steps, things are really handled flawlessly.
"If it weren't for this, Liu Deng has gained experience over the past year or so. At this time, he would really regard Chao Cuo as one of his own
"Your Majesty, everything has been arranged. Master Chao has already settled in"
About half an hour later, Shunzi came over to report that Chao Cuo had made arrangements
"Send someone to invite Mr. Cai to me. Tell him that I have something important to do with him. No matter what he has to do, leave him alone!"
Liu Deng took a deep breath. No matter what the relationship between him and Chao Cuo was, the Huns should still be given the color they deserve (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
