Fortunately, Xie Xian did not return empty-handed. The Seventeenth Prince had reduced the benefits that Liang had promised Rouran by another twenty percent.
It was a full 30% inside and outside.
It wasnât that Emperor Yong Ping looked down on him, but he didnât want him to act like a big shot. If he brought back the things, King Rouran would think that Daliang had gone back on their word and didnât give them enough, thus deducting their share.
âWhy did you send the seventeenth prince to Daliang? Is he smart? Did the
Rouran King not take Liang seriously?
Emperor Yong Ping called Zhuge Fu over.
On the day Zhuge Fu returned to Jiankang, the Emperor not only welcomed the Rouran diplomatic mission, but also praised Zhuge Fu. The Ministry of Rites issued an imperial edict on the same day. Zhuge Fu was appointed Minister of Justice, and his son Zhuge Shu was appointed as a fourth-grade general of the cavalry, in charge of the affairs of the guards.
In terms of friendship with Rouran, it was definitely Zhuge Fu.
He was in his thirties, tall and slender, with a righteous face and two long strands of beard on his chest. His temperament was completely different from Xie Xianâs, calm and steady, his eyes bright.
However, when it came to the Seventeenth Prince of Rouran, Zhuge Fu still had something to say.âHe is straightforward and single-minded. He was also born from the most beloved concubine of the Rouran King, so the Rouran King values him very much. When I went to lobby, it was all thanks to the
Seventeenth Princeâs strong support.â
âThis person can be used.â
When he said this, Emperor Yong Ping did not understand, but Xie Xian also understood. Zhuge Fu was trying to support the Seventeenth Prince of Rouran to serve Daliang. However, the sky was high and the emperor was far away. No matter how long oneâs hand was, it would not be able to reach there.
Even though he did not agree with Zhuge Fuâs intention to interfere in Romanâs affairs, Xie Xian did not openly oppose it.
âThen what do you mean?â
âIf this marriage canât go through, then since sheâs a useful person, then she canât harm others.âEmperor Yong Ping was a kind and honest person. In fact, he was also thinking too much.
âThatâs right. I canât cheat others. No one knows better than us what kind of
person the Yiyang County Lord is.â
Xie Xian expressed,âWhy are you asking me? Donât ask me. I donât know anything about your family.â
Of course, he would just reject Yiyang County Head from the bottom of his heart. Those who had wanted to seduce him and framed his wife would just not flaunt in front of him. As for whether he should go to Rouran or not, it was not within his consideration.
Did he really think that going to Rouran was to enjoy life?
It might be even worse than being exiled to the border. Otherwise, why would the princesses in the palace be so frightened when they heard that they were going to marry into Rouran? They wanted to run to the emperor every day to cry and hide?
There was a reason for this.
âThis is a matter of the royal family.Jtâs still up to Your Majesty to decide.â Xie Xian didnât stick to the pot and directly threw it to Emperor Yong Ping.
Whether he wanted to or not, it would depend on the Seventeenth Princeâs determination, right?
Emperor Yong Ping was helpless as well. He looked at Zhuge Fu and said,âWhat do you mean, dear minister? Do you really want Yiyang County Head to marry over?â
Zhuge Fu asked,âWhat do you mean by âusableâ?â Was it a disaster that made people excited?
âOf course I donât have such intentions!â Zhuge Fu and Emperor Yong Ping had the same opinion. They were both good allies and shouldnât cheat others like this.
Although Zhuge Fu came to Jiankang City later, he had still heard of the former Princess Anjiâs name. In fact, it was impossible to pretend that he had never heard of her. Even the two emperors had mentioned her to him when they were crazyâ¦How was he supposed to pretend?
They had all experienced storms and seen rainbows. If they continued to pretend to be pure, wouldnât it be unwise?
âWhy donât Your Majesty agree first?âZhuge Fu muttered.
Emperor Yong Ping had a question mark on his face.
Or was there something wrong with his ears?
âBeloved Ministerâ¦â Are you crazy?
âPlease listen to me slowly.â
This small matter was not difficult for Zhuge Fu. He had always been able to come up with an idea. In the past, he was the chief historian of the Kuaiji Prefecture. He was able to come up with ideas and manage things easily. It was his old profession.
â Since the Seventeenth Prince has a request, we naturally have nothing to say here However, there are some things that we have to make clear to the Rouran King. We agreed to marry the Princess, but the Seventeenth Prince has taken a fancy to a âcounty headâ. Moreover, heâs a divorcee whoâs cultivating in the templeâ¦â
âMoreover, the Seventeenth Prince wishes to reduce the benefits we promised to Rouran to seventy percent. This will require discussion with the Rouran
King.â
â â Although the Rouran King had made it clear that all the 17 princes can make decisions, our Daliang Empire believes that this is a serious matter, and itâs best to work with the Rouran King-Negotiations.â
Emperor Yong Ping slapped his thigh.â
Xie Xian said,â Daliang and Rouran have been going back and forth for at least a month. If we include the uncertain factors of North Wu, the news will be intercepted halfway, and it will be a long time. Is this what Zhuge Fu meant by the Seventeenth Prince being âusableâ?â
Did he misunderstand, or did Zhuge Chong use the wrong words?
Obviously, even though Xie Xian didnât say anything, Zhuge Fu was able to see through Xie Xianâs gaze. He smiled and said,âWe will only discuss with the Seventeenth Prince first. If he gives up on his idea, it will be even better.â
âWhat if he agrees?â Emperor Yong Ping asked. He felt that the Seventeenth Princeâs brain had been kicked by a donkey and was not normal.
For the sake of one person⦠Pei, she was his aunt after all, so it was not appropriate to say it too harshly.
However, he was really not a good person.
How much sh * t did he have to put in his brain to fall for this person?
It was like a tortoise looking at a green bean.
If it wasnât for the fact that he was afraid of hurting the stability, unity, and friendship between Daliang and Rouran, he would have been happy to throw such a hot potato far away into the mountains.
The problem was Rouran!
Emperor Yong Ping had always wanted to be stable. It was best if Rouran could contain North Wu, which was the most beneficial for Daliang.
Zhuge Fu said,âIf he agrees, then letâs wait.â The world of Daliang was full of flowers and flowers. If his eyes were blinded, then it would be my mistake. It did not matter whether he could use it or not.â
âIf you can use it, then use it. If you donât use it, then let him be.
He never thought that the Rouran King would agree to this marriage.
It wasnât that they were looking down on the Imperial Familyâs county head. He was too unpresentable. Anyone with a brain would have to think about why Daliang was unwilling to even bestow the title of princess to Prince Rouran. This was too easy for Daliang.
Emperor Yong Ping was so happy that he couldnât see his eyes. Zhuge Fu was indeed the one who united Rouran. Be it his brain or eloquence, they were all top-notch.
âMinister Xie, lookâ¦Feasible?â
âItâs up to His Majesty.â What did it have to do with him?
Thus, Emperor Yong Ping happily handed over the task of dealing with the Rouran Prince to Zhuge Fu. He did not want to deal with a retard.
Unexpectedly, Zhuge Fu received a firm reply from the Seventeenth Prince of Rouran. He was willing to negotiate with the King of Rouran without even thinking about it. He even had a face full of gratitude. He believed that this was the result of Zhuge Fuâs efforts to deal with him. To say that he was deeply grateful was a bit of an exaggeration. Anyway, he was so excited that his snot was about to spurt out. He held Zhuge Fuâs hand and refused to let go..
