Chapter 255 Ambition

Rong Zheng raised the corners of his mouth, "Ah Jue is still as smart as before."

Su Mingjue pursed her lips and said, "Then this matter is true."

Rong Zheng said "hmm", "Lixia has suffered several After months of rain and snow, the livestock froze to death, even the crops they planted were no exception."

"If that's the case, why doesn't anyone advocate for peace?"

"The Lixia people have always been a tough people, and negotiating with them is tantamount to showing weakness. It is not advisable to lose the arrogance of other countries."

Su Mingjue disagreed when he heard this: "War is a waste of people and money, and peace is a win-win situation for both parties."

"From a long-term perspective, it is better not to fight than to fight, but this is not the case. It can be said simply, how to discuss it, how to discuss it is a big deal."

"Our military strength is not enough to directly overwhelm the other side. It is impossible for the other side to surrender to us."

"Then what if there is a mutual trade? The reason why Lixia comes frequently. The reason is the lack of food. If we trade with them, it will not only solve their urgent needs, but also maintain the stability of both parties. "

This method has not been proposed before, but His Majesty did not adopt it,"

Su Mingjue said in confusion. Why?"

"The trade between the two countries means that the country is open, which will facilitate the entry of Lixia people and is not conducive to the stability of the country."

Su Mingjue was speechless after hearing this. After all, the Anqing Emperor was suspicious by nature and had this concern. That one.

Su Mingjue said, "Do you have any way to contact the Lixia people?"

Rong Zheng paused after hearing this. After a long time, he put down the book in his hand and said, "Ajue, what do you want to do?"

Su Mingjue hesitated for a moment, and then said firmly: " Mutual trading is the best way to solve the problem at hand, Rong Zheng, what do you think?"

Rong Zheng looked at him straightly and said, "You are not qualified to negotiate at the moment."

"I know, but you can."

Su Mingjue was silent. After a while, he said, "The murder of Aunt Rong should not be the fault of the eldest princess alone! After the eldest princess passed away, you are still as busy as before. Is there someone more powerful behind this?"

Su Mingjue mustered up the courage and said: "Wouldn't we be more powerful together? Okay?"

Rong Zheng did not deny it. He continued to look at the things in his hands: "It is difficult for Meng Helan to succeed alone. Even Xia Hou will have to resist for a long time. Besides, you have enough money to deal with everything. "

Su Mingjue frowned when he heard this, "I know, I plan to go back to the south."

Rong Zheng said with a smile: "If King Jinling knew that you had such ambitions, he would probably laugh out of his eyes." Is he so ambitious ?

Su Mingjue had no such plan.

He opened his mouth and was about to say something, but Rong Zheng took the lead and said calmly: "If there is a two-pronged attack, this matter can be a success." Does the two-pronged attack mean the soldiers of Jinling City?

Su Shiqian has always taken this matter lightly. He could agree.

Su Mingjue was silent for a moment, but after a moment he suddenly reacted and said: "You don't seem to be surprised at all by what I said, you agreed."

Rong Zheng looked at him with a gentle face: "No matter what you do, I will support you."

Su Mingjue's throat tightened when he heard this, and he paused for a moment and said: "What I said tonight is not trivial, and you should object."

Rong Zheng said gently: "If I object to this, will you give up?"

Su Mingjue shook his head firmly.

"In this case, it's useless for me to object. Instead of trying to stop you and make you quit, it's better to be with you. Isn't it better for us to be together as you said?"

Rong Zheng was the first person to support him in so many days. , although Meng Helan said nothing yesterday, Su Mingjue could still tell from some subtle expressions that he did not agree with his participation in this matter.

Su Mingjue didn't know what to say for a moment.

Rong Zheng was always like a piece of warm jade, making him feel warm and soft.

It seems that every time something happens, he can be understood very well just by seeing him.

Rong Zheng pondered for a moment and said: "Amutu and I have a certain friendship. It's not difficult to talk to him. When do you want me to go north?"

Su Mingjue was both surprised at the other party's unconditional trust in him and at the same time marveled at his wide friendship.

Originally, he came to him to ask about this matter, but he was just betting that he was well-informed, and there was a Prime Minister Pei who knew some of Lixia's people more or less, but he didn't expect that he actually had a personal relationship with him.

This made him couldn't help but ask: "How did you get acquainted with Atumu?" Rong Zheng said calmly: "He had found some medical books and agricultural books in the Central Plains before, and I happened to have some, so I made a favor."

The books in ancient times were not as extensive as in modern times. Some books were mostly collected by the readers themselves, so giving books to others could be considered a great favor.

Su Mingjue nodded, thought for a moment and said, "I will discuss this matter after I correspond with Meng Helan."

Hearing this, Rong Zheng smiled and said, "I want him to fight to establish his authority."

Su Mingjue was seen through, and he was not shy and generous. He said: "This is a good opportunity for him to regain his father's old army."

Rong Zheng did not ask any more questions, but instead said: "When are you going to return to Jiangnan?"

"Tomorrow!"

Rong Zheng frowned, "It's such a rush."

​​"Things are getting worse. The sooner the better, so as not to have long nights and dreams."

"I have something to do tomorrow, so I'm afraid I won't be able to see you off." Su Mingjue said with a smile, "It doesn't matter, I'll just go back for a few days, and I'll be back in a few days."
"Is there anything you want to eat from Jiangnan? I'll bring you some."

Rong Zheng raised the corner of his mouth when he heard this, "Just bring me a few pieces of Yongdong cake made by Aunt Fu."

Su Mingjue heard this and simply He put his hand on his forehead and said, "Why do you like this? If my mother knew about it, she would be extremely happy."

Rong Zheng lowered his eyes and said, "Well, this is delicious."

The pink and waxy one tastes sweet. , I don’t know what Rong Zheng likes about it, but everyone’s taste is different, so Su Mingjue didn’t ask further.

After returning from Jinyuan, Su Mingjue's worries finally eased a little. She thought about leaving tomorrow, and thought about Lu Shaoqing's previous calculations.

Su Mingjue specially wrote a letter and gave it to Huahua, asking her to send it to the Lu Mansion tomorrow.

The content of the letter was very simple. He just explained that he was going back to Jiangnan tomorrow and would be back soon, so Lu Shaoqing didn't have to worry.

As for Song Chunhe and Xiao Jamming, they are busy with their studies and should not be able to find him for a while.

Su Xiaoliu was extremely surprised by his master's sudden arrangement, "Master, are we really going back to Jinling City?"

Su Mingjue wrote what he had given to the study and responded, "Isn't that what you said? I don't have the money for me to find my father. How come according to what you said, you seem to not want to go back now?"

Su Xiaoliu swallowed: "That's not what I meant, it's just..."

When Su Xiaoliu thought about his young master not going to school without permission and sneaking home secretly, this act of causing trouble would be enough to give him a hard beating.

"It's just what"

"I'm afraid the young master will use family methods when he goes back."

Su Mingjue licked the ink and smiled and said: "Look at how cowardly you are, I'm not afraid of you, what are you afraid of?"

"Just be more careful, your young master, I I won't cause any trouble to you."

After he finished writing what he had explained in his hand, he blew it and handed it over, "Okay, we've almost packed up everything. Let's rest! Give this to Yingying and ask her to give it to shopkeeper Sun tomorrow.

"Yes, Master. "
