Vol 3 Chapter 47: The Northern Zhou Dynasty (one more)

As soon as the elder princess said this, the Manchu dynasty, civil and military, all quieted, and the emperor heard the words.
Since the founding of the Northern Zhou Dynasty, the country has never bowed its head to the south. What's more, the emperor once thought that this year Chu Han would take the Northern Zhou army to take over Yanbei and drive straight into the southern Qi territory. Unexpectedly, in just a few months, the Northern Zhou Dynasty was defeated like a mountain, to the point where no one would fight and the Northern Zhou demanded peace.
When the eldest princess spoke, the prime minister thought for a moment, then sighed, and then spoke what the second princess had said.
The ministers also came out one after another, with what the princess said.
Even if the emperor of the Northern Zhou Dynasty was extremely unwilling and annoyed, he had no other choice but to nod his head, agreed with the princess, and asked, "Nanqi has been suppressed by our Northern Zhou for a long time, and now we seek peace. , Is the Emperor of Nanqi Kenyi?"
Princess Long said, "The situation in Southern Qi is not very peaceful, and it has always been quite chaotic. The Emperor of Southern Qi is also worried day and night. Even though I have broken several cities in the Northern Zhou Dynasty, in my opinion, there are many problems in Nanqi without permanent power, at most half a year. In addition, the Nanqi military has always been weak, with only siege soldiers, but no generals to defend the city. Even if we conquer our huge territory in the Northern Zhou Dynasty, soldiers will damage their own vitality and are temporarily unable to govern and govern. The vast territory. If there is no control, there will be riots and even counterattacks. At that time, internal troubles will be like scourges, and Yu Nanqi will be disadvantaged."
The emperor nodded, "According to what the emperor said, Nan Qi will definitely agree to our peace?"
The eldest princess nodded, "If Nanqi does not emphasize peace, then we will also have a national strength in the Northern Zhou Dynasty. By then, even though I am already old, I will go into battle with armor. The emperor will also show off the heroic figure of the year. , I will never be vulnerable to the Northern Zhou Dynasty, and Nanqi will not easily take the land of the Northern Zhou Dynasty. The front will inevitably become longer and longer. It may be a few years, maybe."
The emperor nodded.
The eldest princess said again, "The hidden dangers in Nanqi are hard to get rid of for a while. Nowadays, the war depends on the courage and strategy of the Su family's father and daughter. Without long-term preparation, the food, grass and army's salary is not enough to support the fight for a few years. And Su Che is a kind hearted person. People first, then their own people. If the war has been fought for a few years, it is conceivable that how many people in the Nanqi realm will have to cut down on food and clothing, and suffer from the war, Su Che will definitely not bear it. Therefore, the Su family may be avenging Yanbei's revenge. Being aggressive, and now even winning a few cities, it's a big revenge. As long as I make peace in the Northern Zhou Dynasty, I should promise."
The emperor felt reasonable when he heard the words, and asked, "Who does the emperor think is appropriate to send?"
The eldest princess swept the civil and military circles of the Manchu Dynasty and said, "I'll go."
The emperor was surprised, "Emperor sister, are you going to negotiate a peace?"
The eldest princess nodded, "I want to see Su Che's daughter, how she looks and how powerful she is, which made Chu Han lose again and again, turn things around, and put me at a disadvantage in Bei Zhou. Except for Rong An, who went to the battle with her husband. Princess, there hasn't been a woman worth seeing for so many years."
Speaking of Chu Han, the emperor was sorrowful again, and said, "I also want to see her. I heard that she is a young girl with a cardamom age. I didn't expect it to make me be defeated by Bei Zhou. Su Che has a good daughter."
The princess said, "The emperor will sit in the middle of Beijing. Now I am up and down in the Northern Zhou Dynasty, and the military will be unstable. If you don't sit in the middle of the clock, I will discuss the peace."
The emperor said helplessly, "If this is the case, who will accompany the emperor?"
The princess said, "The prime minister is with me, and let Nan Qi see my sincerity in Bei Zhou to negotiate peace."
The prime minister heard the words, "The old minister is willing to go with the princess."
The emperor nodded, "Then the prime minister will work hard to accompany the emperor's sister. Later, I will send a messenger to Fanxi City to deliver the proposal and ask Su Che to stop the fight."
The princess nodded.
The Northern Zhou Dynasty and the opposition had unanimously made a decision. After the dynasty was disbanded, the emperor first sent a messenger to Fanxi City to deliver the proposal and ask Su Che to end the battle. The eldest princess and the prime minister prepared, and then set off for the front line.
In the Northern Zhou Dynasty, the Nanqi Association accepted the peace talks. As expected by the Princess of the Northern Zhou Dynasty, Su Fengnuan, Ye Chang and Su Che were waiting for the Northern Zhou Dynasty to come to discuss the peace. All three areas in the Southern Qi were defaced, but the eastern border was peaceful. However, the King of Xiang County was restless and had a lot of tricks behind him. There were no perfect conditions in the Southern Qi to allow one to go straight in. They fought for three or five years and captured the Northern Zhou Dynasty. Jiangshan can't do it at all.
In addition to the supply of food and grass is a major problem, internal troubles are also a major problem. If the war drags on it, I am afraid that the Northern Zhou Dynasty will take the country and the Nanqi itself will be dragged down.
Therefore, after the trio captured Fanxi City, they did not continue to send troops inward. While waiting for the Northern Zhou Dynasty to discuss the peace, Su Che rushed to play the emperor of the capital, and asked the emperor's opinion about the Northern Zhou Xingxu's request for peace. At the same time, it analyzed the current situation of Nanqi.
The emperor received Su Che's military intelligence report, and the messenger sent by the emperor of the Northern Zhou Dynasty also arrived in Fan Xicheng.
Victory in the West has been heard from time to time. The Emperor of Southern Qi is in a very good mood, and the Manchu civil and military also followed suit. Some people even suggested that General Su take the Northern Zhou Dynasty in one fell swoop.
After reading Su Che’s letter, the emperor read the letter written by Su Fengnuan and Ye Chang together with the official document. The two of them spoke very rudely than Su Che’s words, and the lines were casual, but the lines were sharp and harmonious. Edge.
The emperor looked and shook his head, thinking that these two people are really perfect, made in heaven, and even if you write a letter to him, you and I will mention the pen and the book sentence by sentence. It is not a person who writes the pen carefully, but obviously it is given to him. Write letters as a pastime, joke while writing.
It can be seen that the relationship between the two is really excellent. Fortunately, as the monarch of a country, he is a little bit emotional and jealous. He has never had this kind of childhood sweetheart. Although he is an emperor, he has many regrets.
The emperor also felt that it was not appropriate for the Southern Qi to make further progress and should accept the Northern Zhou dynasty's negotiation. Because the Northern Zhou Dynasty had not yet sent people to negotiate a peace, the emperor had not made any public announcements. He also felt that a peace should be negotiated. After the agreement was made, the emperor first suppressed the memorial.
The messenger of the Northern Zhou sent the Northern Zhou emperor’s petition letter to Fan Xicheng, and handed it to Su Che. After reading the petition letter, Su Che expressed gratitude to the Northern Zhou emperor’s sincerity in seeking peace with the Southern Qi emperor, and promised to postpone the invasion of the city. The words will be reported to the emperor as soon as possible, so that the messenger will report back to the emperor of Northern Zhou and wait for the emperor of Nanqi to reply.
Therefore, the messenger reported Su Che's reply as soon as possible to Bei Zhou Jing.
A few days later, the emperor of Nanqi received a letter from Su Che, accompanied by a letter of agreement sent by the emperor of the Northern Zhou dynasty. After reading it, the emperor summoned a group of officials to discuss the matter.
Throughout the dynasties, there were many radicals, and there were also in the Southern Qi Dynasty. They felt that General Su, Miss Su, and Ye Shizi won several cities in a row, and the Northern Zhou Dynasty has no generals to dispatch. It is time to continue to attack under the Northern Zhou Imperial City. Let the emperor of the Northern Zhou Dynasty surrender to the Southern Qi and take the land of the Northern Zhou Dynasty together. It should not be promised to negotiate peace in the Northern Zhou Dynasty and miss the great opportunity when morale is so high and there is fighting capacity.
The academician Wang and Prime Minister Sun hadn’t spoken yet. Xu Yunchu said plainly,
I have never prepared for the army in Southern Qi. Now General Su is in the West and has taken several cities in the Northern Zhou Dynasty. It is also because the Northern Zhou Dynasty has deceived people so much. In a few days, the inventory will only be enough for our army for half a year. If the Northern Zhou Dynasty resists with all its strength and desperately resists, the war will not only last for half a year, maybe a few years. Then, what shall we fight against the Northern Zhou Dynasty? This lord, Do you provide food and army salaries?"
The man choked, and suddenly there was nothing to refute.
The Wang University scholar agreed with Xu Yunchu's words, "Uncle Xiaoguo made sense, and the minister also advocated agreeing to the Northern Zhou Dynasty."
Prime Minister Sun also went out to second.
The two people and one seconded the agreement. Under the consideration of the civil and military officials, they also felt that the negotiation was more beneficial. It really took three to five years. Not to mention that the people can't stand it. They can't stand it even if they fudge. Also successively went out and followed the second.
Seeing that no one objected, the emperor immediately made a decision and agreed with the Northern Zhou dynasty.
From the beginning to the end, no one mentioned that the north, west, and south of the Yangtze River were defaced and the subsequent recovery was one of the reasons why the attack on the Northern Zhou could not be continued. No one mentioned that the king of Xiangjun in the east was secretly conspiring. The minister’s heart is also the second reason. The negotiation of peace was settled by Xu Yunchu's payment of food and grass.
After agreeing to agree to the negotiation, it is to choose a candidate to negotiate with the Northern Zhou Dynasty. Since the Northern Zhou initiatively seeks peace, it will naturally cede land for compensation.
The people sent by the Northern Zhou Dynasty to discuss peace were the eldest princess of the Northern Zhou Dynasty who had been involved in politics for many years and was respected by the emperor of the Northern Zhou Dynasty and the prime minister of the Northern Zhou Dynasty. The identity of the people who discussed the peace in the Southern Qi Dynasty should not be lower than these two.
Wang Lu went out and suggested, "If people are dispatched from the DPRK to negotiate a peace, it will be very inconvenient because of heavy snow and cold weather. The road will be difficult to walk. The old official suggested that Ye Shizi and my granddaughter Su Fengnuan and the Princess of Beizhou and the prime minister That's it for negotiation. Su Che is a veteran son-in-law, and the veteran understands him. He is too upright and good at fighting wars, but he is not good at negotiating. Ye Shizi was born in the Royal Palace of Rong'an. I have negotiated with Beizhou. There is no need to send another person."
Prime Minister Sun concurred, "The old officials also felt that what the Wang University scholar said was very true. Ye Shizi and Miss Su were in the army, and General Su had won several cities in the Northern Zhou Dynasty. Ye Shizi and Miss Su contributed a lot. Both of them are smart people. , Will definitely fight for the best interests of Nan Qi."
Xu Yunchu also seconded, "The minister also seconded what Wang Dacheng and the prime minister said, and they also think that they are the most suitable."
The three proposed Su Fengnuan and Ye Chang. Everyone thought that Ye Shizi from the Royal Palace of Rong'an and the young lady from the General Su's Palace were really the most suitable people. With their undaunted temperament, they might not really let them. The princess Bei Zhou and the prime minister could not ask for half a favor.
So everyone seconded.
As the negotiators of Nanqi, Su Fengnuan and Ye Chang agreed. On the same day, the emperor delivered the imperial decree and ordered people to rush to Fanxi City. Regarding the discussion and negotiation of the Northern Zhou Dynasty, the two people have the full power to handle it.
