Soon, the Shu Kingdom sent an envoy named He Tan.
They didn't know what the final result would be, but they could only try their best to accomplish this as soon as possible. The Miao Kingdom was still watching them covetously.
At the same time, in the Miao military camp.
Ever since the last night raid and the feint attack by their Great Zhou soldiers, the high priest's temper has become increasingly bad.
It was all because of this eunuch named Lu that he couldn't sleep well at night.
But what shocked him even more was that this guy had thought things through so carefully. In fact, if he hadn't launched a surprise attack on him that night, or launched that kind of feint attack.
When we receive the news that the Great Zhou is going to attack Shu, they will definitely try every means to attack Fengcheng, and they will suffer a heavy loss even if they don't die.
But after knowing the truth of the matter, it was too late for them and they naturally could not attack.
"Prince Nan'an, what do you think of the current situation? The Great Zhou has already defeated the Shu army, and Shu is naturally fleeing in panic."
"Logically speaking, they should be more angry at the Shu Kingdom rather than the Miao army. They hate this kind of betrayal."
Prince Nan'an nodded. "The general is absolutely right. If I'm not mistaken, they will turn their attention to Shu or choose to negotiate. At that time, Shu will have to offer favorable conditions."
"I think the Great Zhou is determined to win this time, after all, their ambitions are huge, but if they fail, the two sides will start fighting.
It's an opportunity for us, and I think we have to find a way to make their negotiations fail."
"Only in this way can we take advantage of the opportunity."
"Okay, okay." The high priest nodded with a very complacent look. For him, this matter was very simple. He just needed to send someone to disrupt the situation.
The simplest way to do this is to successfully incite some ministers in the Shu court to rebel. As for who to choose, this is a difficult problem.
"Who do you think we can choose to incite rebellion in the Shu Kingdom's court? After all, you are relatively familiar with them. I think you can offer some suggestions."
Prince Nan'an explained, "General, I think the most suitable person is Zhang He, the Prime Minister of the Shu Kingdom."
"I asked someone and heard that he was the one who came up with this plan. This can be said to be a stupid move.
It directly destroyed the relationship between the two armies, and now they are in an even more dangerous situation."
"If we don't negotiate properly, then Shu will face destruction. This must be very painful for the King of Shu. He may even have to hand over the Prime Minister and his head to the Great Zhou to resolve his resentment."
"Oh? I didn't expect there was such a stupid prime minister. I never thought your Shu Kingdom really has so many talented people."
"As long as we talk about Zhang He, we say that if he doesn't cooperate with our Miao country, then they will only lose their heads, so we must let him see it."
"good!"
“…”
One day later, in the court of Shu Kingdom.
Chen Mugao sat on the dragon throne, looking coldly at the ministers below. What had happened recently was indeed giving him a headache. As a king, he didn't know how to deal with it.
It's so stupid. If my ancestors knew about this, they would definitely scold me severely.
However, someone must be found to take the blame for this matter, and the prime minister is the most suitable person, since it was his stupid move anyway.
If it weren't for him, the Miao army would have been defeated long ago.
And Zhang He, naturally, had also received the news from the Miao Kingdom, which was the embrace that the high priest had stolen from him.
As long as he tries his best to sabotage the peace talks between the two countries, his life can be saved.
Zhang He actually knew his fate! At the moment of Shu's defeat, his head would definitely be offered as a sacrifice. There was no other way. He was the mastermind behind this matter and it was he who suggested this stupid move to the emperor.
"Your Majesty, I think there is no need to panic about this matter. If the Great Zhou really wants to attack our Shu Kingdom, then we don't have to worry.
Anyway, we still have a lot of troops. The army hasn't set out yet, and we can always recruit new troops."
The Emperor of Shu was also stunned at this moment. He did not expect that the Prime Minister would dare to say such shocking words.
"Prime Minister, are you kidding me? We've already lost the fight, and you still don't care?"
"Look at the situation yourself. The soldiers of the Great Zhou are so powerful that they have defeated the general's troops. What use is our improvised army? Right now, our three kingdoms are the most closely connected."
"If we were to seek help from others, who would we turn to? The Miao Kingdom and we are enemies. Do you think we can unite?"
Zhang He raised a sinister smile and explained, "Your Majesty, perhaps we really can. There isn't any particular hatred between us and the Miao Kingdom. We can actually have a good talk."
"The main reason the Miao Kingdom sent troops this time was to attack the Great Zhou."
"Your Majesty should have seen that after the Miao people attacked the natural defenses of our Shu Kingdom and the Great Zhou.
They went straight to attack the Great Zhou, completely ignoring the rest of our Shu Kingdom's territory. This proves that their intention is to attack the Great Zhou."
"Then, we can take this opportunity to use the Miao Nation's intentions to reach a cooperation with them. As long as they take over the Great Zhou, we can also negotiate with them and give up some of our interests."
"What!"
Chen Mu never expected that the Prime Minister would say such hateful words. You actually want to join forces with the villain.
You must know that it was the Miao country that attacked them first and caused them to lose. No matter what their purpose is, they cannot cooperate!
This is simply a slap in their own face. How could they make such shameful remarks? He has now come to his senses and is not that stupid. He always feels that the Prime Minister seems to have led him into a ditch.
If it weren't for the Prime Minister, things wouldn't have become as bad as they are now. Is he really still the same Prime Minister as before?
He has changed, he has really changed, he has become so different that even I don't recognize him.
"Prime Minister, doing this is tantamount to courting disaster. Do you think the King of Nan'an would agree?
Even if they agree, it will only be a temporary agreement. In the end, they will still turn around and attack our Shu Kingdom. Compared to the King of Nannan, I trust my sister the most."
"Don't try to smooth things over here and think I don't understand these things."
"this……"
Zhang He smiled awkwardly, but in fact he was still a little speechless in his heart. He didn't expect that His Majesty was smart now and knew that this thing could not be done.
