Chapter 992 Unprepared
"Since the empress knew that the foreign ministers returned to the Great Zhou on the day the Empress of the Great Zhou ascended the throne, she never thought...these days before the foreign ministers returned to the Great Zhou, might they be in Xiliang?"
Bai Qingqi's plain eyes were also looking at the Empress of Xiliang, she obviously seemed to be an indifferent and cold person...
But even though he was sharp-tongued and not polite, perhaps because of his gentle face and calm demeanor, people still felt that this person was personable.
The empress of Xiliang tightened her palms slightly, pretending to be calm, and her smile deepened: "Your envoy is honest."
Bai Qingqi nodded slightly towards the Empress of Xiliang: "The foreign ministers didn't mean to embarrass His Majesty, nor did they want to be reluctant to spread the training methods of the Tiger Eagle Camp of the Bai family army, but... the Bai family army will never allow their comrades to be forcibly detained in other countries! The Bai family army has always I hope Your Majesty can understand! If there is a misunderstanding...send someone to take the subordinates of the foreign ministers to the training place of the Huoyun Army to find them. Favor."
The empress of Xiliang knew in her heart that Bai Qingqi's location of the Huoyun army camp was accurate, and she presumably had already investigated it, and now she came here just to find a legitimate excuse to send someone back.
Bai Qingqi had just turned back to Dazhou, and without waiting for Li Zhijie to sign the covenant with Dazhou, she quietly entered Yunjing as a minister, perhaps... just for this purpose.
"Naturally, if the Empress of Xiliang doesn't allow it, it's reasonable." Bai Qingqi's lips seemed to elicit an extremely shallow smile, "It's not that foreign ministers can't understand, but it's inevitable that they will... remember. "
This is a threat.
Empress Xiliang thought of the alliance signed between Qiushanguan and Jin, and felt ashamed.
A weak country has no room to bargain with a strong country.
She suddenly remembered that Li Zhijie came back from Qiushan Pass with a peace treaty, and once said that this Bai Qing said... When you kneel down to ask for peace, you must show a begging attitude, don't put on any posture in front of the winner, the weak... have no such qualifications! She also said that if Xiliang's subjugated country did not exist in the world, how would she have the face and confidence to talk about humiliation without humiliation!
A weak country does not have the confidence and face to talk about shame with a strong country.
But today's shame, she remembered, Xiliang's mess... She must stand up, she must let Xiliang return to the list of powerful countries, strong enough to compete with Da Zhou and Dayan, and to share with them. By the Central Plains.
Empress Xiliang smiled, nodded and said: "Since your envoy is worried, it is not impossible to send someone to go."
Bai Qingqi bowed to the Empress of Xiliang: "The people brought by the foreign ministers are waiting outside the palace, please send someone to take them away immediately, so that the foreign ministers can feel at ease."
Insatiable...
However, with Xiliang declining, she had no choice but to nod her head, and could only turn her head and say to the eunuch beside her, "Go and tell General Yun, take the envoys of the Great Zhou to the Huoyun Army Camp, and let the envoys of the Great Zhou Let's see... is there any member of the Bai family army in our Huoyun army, so that the envoys of Da Zhou can feel at ease."
Empress Xiliang looked at Bai Qingqi with a smile, Bai Qingqi straightened her back calmly, and nodded to express her gratitude to Empress Xiliang.
"Yes..." The little eunuch exited the palace in response.
Outside the palace, after listening to the little eunuch's message, Yun Poxing immediately understood what the Empress of Xiliang meant.
He didn't expect that Bai Qingqi already knew about the Huoyun Army just after he came to Xiliang. He pursed his lips, raised his hand to signal the little eunuch to approach, and whispered in the little eunuch's ear: "Go and order General Li to go quickly!" In the Huoyun army camp, no one can see Yunlan..."
"Yes!" The little eunuch ran away immediately.
Seeing the little eunuch running away, Yun Poxing ordered the imperial guards around him unhurriedly: "Go to Yun Mansion once, and just say it's my order... Let the second master of Yun Mansion take the envoys of Da Zhou personally A trip to the Huoyun army camp."
"yes!"
Yun Poxing turned to look at the main hall with the carved wooden doors closed, feeling heavy in his heart.
Inside the hall.
Bai Qingqi saluted the Empress of Xiliang again, and said: "Your Majesty will give you peaches, and Da Zhou will naturally repay you with plums. I have something to say to Your Majesty, but it has absolutely no intention of damaging the Xiliang court..."
"Your envoy, please speak!" The empress of Xiliang looked at Bai Qingqi seriously.
"King Yan of Xiliang went to Da Zhou, and offered generous gifts... to sign a covenant with Da Zhou, but the reason why my Empress Da Zhou has not agreed is because... once, the eight major families of Xi Liang sent people to Jin in secret to seek an audience with the crown prince. I wanted to form an alliance with the Jin State, elect a new emperor to the throne in Xiliang, and ask the Jin State to help Xiliang, but it happened that the matter had not been finalized yet, and the King of Liang was in chaos!"
The empress of Xiliang looked at Bai Qingqi with clear eyes, as if she was judging the truth of Bai Qingqi's words.
"Your Majesty should know that before my Great Zhou Empress ascended the throne, the Prince of Jin would discuss everything with my Great Zhou Empress, so... this is why my Great Zhou was worried and couldn't form an alliance with Xiliang for so long!" Bai Bai Qing Qi looked at the Xiliang Empress who had a calm and unwavering gaze, and continued, "The empress of the Great Zhou Dynasty sent foreign ministers to Xiliang Yunjing this time, and gave the foreign ministers the right to decide on their own... whether to deny the alliance, so the foreign ministers After arriving in Yunjing, I didn't see you in time, because I was thinking...whether the empress can really control Xiliang."
"Even if the throne of Xiliang changes..." The corners of the Empress Xiliang's lips twitched, "No matter who ascends the throne of Xiliang, they must be very eager to make an alliance with the Great Zhou. If there is a change in Xiliang... the city that the emperor of Xiliang promised to cede to me, will the successor emperor take it back? Your envoy's words... have the intention of sowing discord between me and the eight major families."
The empress of Xiliang seemed to have suddenly thought of something, and she raised her brows: "Or, the reason why your envoy told me about this is to make me fight with the eight major families and cause civil strife in my Xiliang court?"
Bai Qingqi smiled slightly, straightened her back and bowed to the Empress of Xiliang: "The empress's eyes are like torches."
The empress of Xiliang did not expect Bai Qingqi to admit it so easily, frankly...it was beyond her expectation.
Perhaps... this is because Da Zhou is a powerful country, so he is not afraid of Xiliang, let alone her, the empress.
"Then, by appearing in the imperial court of Xiliang this time, is the envoy intending to form an alliance with Xiliang, or... just to provoke civil strife in the Xiliang court?" The Empress of Xiliang asked again.
"Of course, if we can stir up civil strife in the Xiliang court, we don't need to make an alliance. If we can't...then set a date to discuss the peace talks with your country's envoy who presided over the peace talks." Bai Qingqi said.
"Your envoy... really frankly caught me off guard!" The Empress of Xiliang smiled and said, "It's better to make an alliance sooner rather than later. Please ask your envoy to go back to the post house to rest. A matter of peace."
