Chapter 26: The Marriage of the Two Kingdoms
As the saying goes, no matter how perfect the plan is, if there is an accident in the process of implementation, the final result is likely to be completely finished.
Whether it's bad luck or his own mistakes, the current situation has begun to gradually get out of Pei Shiju's control, and for him, there is no better choice than to make up for it and reverse the whole situation again.
"Princess Fumin, the time we agreed on is half past nine, but you are fifteen minutes ahead of schedule. In that case, please take a seat. After smiling, Pei Shiju made an inviting gesture to Zhao Min.
After listening to Pei Shiju's words, everyone present was taken aback, and no one thought that Pei Shiju would blatantly admit that he was the initiator of the secret talk.
Mu Daoren looked at Pei Shiju suspiciously, not understanding what he wanted to do, Wukong also looked at his father-in-law with a shocked face, he also couldn't understand what he wanted to do.
After Zhao Min frowned slightly, he glanced at Pei Shiju deeply, and then sat next to Wukong with a smile.
Replied to Wukong, you must believe me, after the eyes of the two of us as a family, Pei Shiju nodded slightly, and slowly sat back on the chair.
Although Wukong knew that the current situation was very wrong, he never thought that his good father-in-law, Pei Shiju, had actually been calculating himself all along, so he finally chose to believe in his father-in-law, and he sat back on the chair with great anxiety.
After controlling the audience with one sentence, Pei Shiju thought for a while, and slowly said to Zhao Min: "Princess Fumin, Pei asked you to come here without permission today, the main purpose is to discuss it with you again...... , about the covenant between our two countries. After finishing speaking, he looked at Zhao Min calmly, waiting for her answer.
Zhao Min is not a fool, she can't see who Pei Shiju really wants to calculate?
Therefore, as soon as Pei Shiju's words fell, Zhao Min said in an extremely annoyed heart: "If I hadn't arrived fifteen minutes early, would you have talked to me about any covenant? If I wanted to know, you want to discuss the covenant with me, would I probably come to see you? Damn, why did he calculate Du Xiaopang, what did this person want to do?" After thinking of this, she looked at Pei Shiju without saying a word, and continued to think about it with some nerve-wracking.
Pei Shiju took the initiative to admit that he invited Zhao Min, which seems to be very stupid, but in fact, he admitted the identity of the person he invited, in fact, he has already cut off all his troubles, no matter what the result of this secret meeting is, there will be no one else, and he can use the matter of inviting people to find Pei Shiju's trouble!
Although Zhao Min knew very well in her heart that Pei Shiju was most likely her temporary ally, she really didn't dare to speak casually before she was really sure, she was afraid that if she opened her mouth at will, she would destroy Pei Shiju, and it might be to help her overall plan.
If the final results show that Pei Shiju is not a person from the road to him at all, for Zhao Min, it actually has nothing to do with it, because the left and right are just hands.
Therefore, it is better not to say anything now, and take a look at Pei Shiju first, what kind of calculation is he making.
Seeing that Zhao Min was silent, Pei Shiju smiled secretly, and then slowly said: "Princess Fumin, you insist on bringing my lord back to the Rabbit Rice Empire, but you are afraid that our Da Sui will break the covenant." However, since ancient times, the means to truly achieve peace have never been based on blind persecution. Therefore, if you want Dasui not to break the covenant and still be close to the Rabbit Rice Empire after forty years, then you must ...... in the covenant After finishing word by word, Pei Shiju looked at Zhao Min intently, waiting for her answer.
However, he said a lot of words, but everyone present was even more confused, and they really couldn't understand what Pei Shiju wanted to do.
So, after Zhao Min pondered for a while, she said with a pity: "How do you want me to give in?" After speaking, she looked at Pei Shiju calmly, waiting for his explanation.
As soon as Zhao Min's words fell, everyone put their eyes on Pei Shiju, wanting to see what kind of cow beep he could say, and revise that one alive, which was super beneficial to the Rabbit Rice Empire, and the alliance between the two countries that had been set.
Hugging his arms, Pei Shiju raised his chin slightly, and said with a smile: "It's very simple, Xiao Dan is a man of his word, and within forty years, he will never break the covenant......! , Two Nations-Alliance-Marriage!" After Shi Po said four words in shock, without waiting for Wukong, who was shocked, and Zhao Min, who was flushed, to speak, Pei Shiju hurriedly continued.
"Of course, since it is a marriage between the two parties, the Rabbit Rice Empire must show sincerity! Even if it is a civil marriage, the woman's family must also prepare a dowry. Therefore, the rabbit mushroom rice and half of the Northern Liang will be jointly governed by the two countries from now on, which is the only requirement of our Dasui!" After saying it strongly, Pei Shiju looked at Zhao Min with extremely firm eyes, waiting...... , her opposition!
That's right, from beginning to end, Pei Shiju didn't plan at all to let Zhao Min make any concessions.
And Zhao Min is not a fool at all, in the face of such a completely cost-effective condition, she will not agree at all.
If the Rabbit Rice Empire is as strong as the Dasui Dynasty, then it is not impossible for the two countries to govern a small place together.
However, the Rabbit Rice Empire is far weaker than the Dasui Dynasty, if Zhao Min agrees now, the two countries jointly govern the Rabbit Mushroom Rice Empire, and half of the land of the Northern Liang, then this is equivalent to letting the Rabbit Rice Empire open its entire northern gateway to Dasui refreshingly!
Is marriage necessarily very safe, there have been countless events in history to prove that as long as the interests are big enough, then, regardless of whether the two parties have a marriage relationship, when it is time to stab in the back, no one will ...... , the slightest softness.
Therefore, Pei Shiju is a complete liar at all, although what he said is good, but with a so-called marriage, in exchange for the northern gateway of the entire Rabbit Rice Empire, even if Zhao Min stupidly agreed, her father and the ministers of the Rabbit Rice Empire would not agree at all.
However, since this is obviously a trap, and it is also the kind of trap that is easy to see, then, as the world's number one negotiator, why would Pei Shiju say such a thing so unwisely, it doesn't make the slightest sense at all...... , what about rhetoric?
Could it be that he was not afraid of angering Zhao Min because of this, and directly flipped the table and did it?
Hehe, of course Pei Shiju is not afraid at all, the ultimate purpose of his words is precisely to ...... , do things!
