Qi Ning spoke through the other party’s thoughts, but Chai Bozhong remained calm and composed, with no wavering on his face, smiled and said, “What Hou Ye said is correct. The biggest obstacle for the third prince to inherit the throne is Zhong Liao. Beitang Showa and Beitang Hao and the others are just clowns jumping on the beam, and the strength of the two is now almost depleting each other. Once the Northwest Army enters the customs, the two of them are completely vulnerable.”
“Chai Junshi is now starting to tell the truth.”
Chai Bozhong sighed: “Actually, what I said from the beginning was not a lie. Lord Hou, the three princes are afraid of Zhong Liao, don’t you, the state of Chu, not afraid of Zhong Liao? If I say something offensive, if there is enough food and grass, and the logistical support is continuous, Even if Dongqi and you people from Chu join forces, it will be even more difficult for your Chu army to fight the Huaihe River, with Zhong Liao guarding the front line, it will be a moat.”
“It seems that Master Chai has a high opinion of Zhong Liao.”
Chai Bozhong smiled indifferently: “If Ling Zun is still alive, with the ability of General Qi, Zhong Liao will naturally not be an opponent, but unfortunately, there is no one in your country who can have the demeanor of Ling Zun. Zhong Liao can’t deal with Ling Zun, but he can deal with Yue Zun. The flow around the mountains is more than enough.” After a pause, he said: “Actually, your country sent troops to attack Xuzhou, which is beneficial to both of you and us. Of course, it will give the third prince time to take Luoyang, and it will also allow your country to go smoothly. Take Xuzhou.”
Qi Ning said: “What you said doesn’t seem to be false.”
“What does Lord Hou mean, is he willing to reach an agreement with the third prince?” Chai Bozhong raised his eyebrows slightly.
Qi Ning said with a smile, “Master Chai should know that I’m just a minister of the Great Chu, and I can’t make the decisions about such important military affairs. In fact, as you said, Zhong Li’ao can fight well, although I, the Great Chu, really wanted to take advantage of you guys. The turmoil in the north is the northern expedition, but soldiers are the great weapon of the country, and many ministers do not agree to send troops at this time. If the war is together, just like the Qinhuai War, the two sides will reach a deadlock and become a protracted war of attrition. This is not a big deal. Chu would love to see it.”
Chai Bozhong frowned and said, “What does the Marquis mean, your country doesn’t want to send troops yet?”
“It’s still under discussion.” Qi Ning smiled and said, “If you really want to send troops, it’s a good time for you to join the civil strife in the Northern Han Dynasty. We can start the northern expedition immediately. He looked left and right, leaned forward slightly, and said in a low voice: “Chai Junshi has come all the way this time, and he is full of sincerity. I might as well say a few words to you. I am not afraid of Zhong Liao. It’s just…!” Having said this, he hesitated, and he smiled deeply.
Chai Bozhong seemed to understand and said in a low voice, “Master Hou is saying… Marquis of Changling?”
Qi Ning smiled slightly and said, “The first thing that Sergeant Chai thinks of is the Marquis of Changling. It seems that in the mind of Sergeant Chai, that Marquis of Changling is indeed no trivial matter.” Touching his chin, he sighed: “Junior Chai, if I am Translate your meaning to the emperor, can you guess what the emperor will think?”
“The Sacred Heart is unpredictable, I really don’t dare to guess.” Chai Bozhong said: “I also ask Hou Ye for advice!”
“The emperor may think that this is a trap set by your Northern Han.” Qi Ning sighed, “Let me go north and enter the territory of Northern Han, but your Marquis of Changling is behind the scenes. Northern Han knows Chu best. The person in the army is the Marquis of Changling, and when the time comes, the Chu army will naturally suffer a lot.”
Chai Bozhong said with a smile: “It turns out that your country has not sent troops for a long time because of the Marquis of Changling.”
“If it were someone else, these words shouldn’t have been said.” Qi Ning said sternly: “But this time Master Chai is here to discuss important matters, so I will open the door and say something bright. The emperor and several important officials in the court are indeed afraid of Changling. Hou, Master Chai also knows that my lord has not been on the throne for a long time. According to common sense, it is time to rest with the people and conform to the will of the people. At this time, once an army is launched, it must be guaranteed to win. Otherwise, once lost, the prestige of the emperor will be shaken. , it will even lead to internal turmoil in my Great Chu, and the situation will be difficult to clean up at that time.”
Chai Bozhong nodded and said, “Your country is thoughtful.
He lowered his voice and said, “Master Hou, but I don’t know how to convince your monarch to send troops?”
”
Qi Ning smiled and said: “Chai military division is the history of the military division commander. Naturally, he is very resourceful and should understand the key.”
“Presumably Your Majesty will only send troops if he is sure of the life and death of Marquis Changling.” Chai Bozhong sighed: “Master Marquis, you want to know if Marquis Changling is still alive.”
Qi Ning smiled and said, “I do have this idea. But I don’t know if Master Chai knows the whereabouts of Marquis Changling?”
Chai Bozhong shook his head and said, “I really don’t know. Lord Hou should know that when the Qinhuai War broke out, the commander of the Chu army was Ling Zun, and the great Han was the commander of the army of the Marquis of Changling. There is damage to each other, these two can be said to be good talents, and their talents are on the same level. If it weren’t for these two, today’s world would only be a different situation.” Wei pondered, and then continued: “I am the first emperor of the Han Dynasty. Although the Marquis of Changling has always been the commander in chief, but the Marquis of Changling is in control of the military and has done too much credit, this will naturally be feared by the previous emperor.”
“The power is high, and it has been known since ancient times.” Qi Ning said: “The Marquis of Changling holds the Southern Army Corps. This is also the strongest army in your Northern Han Dynasty. It will naturally be envied by others.”
Chai Bozhong nodded and said, “Marquis Changling has a very high prestige in the army, not to mention the southern legion, it is the northern legion guarding the North Pass. Many people also deeply admire Changling Marquis.” He sighed and said: “Changling Marquis is a great man. A person with a temperament, he sees the eye, it is heart-to-heart, and the eye is disliked, and it is not even the right eye. I am a big Han Dynasty, but there are only a handful of people who can gain the eyes of the Marquis of Changling, so I say Marquis Changling has few friends in the DPRK and China, but many enemies.”
Qi Ning thought that Beitang Huan, the Marquis of Changling, was a famous general in the world. He was not only a member of the Beitang royal family, but also made great contributions. It is not unusual for such a person to have a temper or even arrogance towards others.
“At that time, I heard rumors that many generals of the Southern Legion wanted to support the Marquis of Changling as emperor, so they went back to Luoyang and seized the throne.” Chai Bozhong said with emotion: “I just know that Marquis Changling is eccentric, but he is not interested in the imperial court. However, he really has no rebellious heart. If he really coveted the throne, that seat would definitely belong to him back then. But there are so many rumors, many people take it seriously. If the Marquis of Changling really commanded the southern army to kill Luoyang, the whole big man, no army or horse can stop him.”
Qi Ning frowned and said, “Chai Junshi knows the situation in Northern Han very well, but why doesn’t he know the whereabouts of Marquis Changling?”
“As far as I know, on the eve of the end of the Qinhuai War, the late emperor issued a decree to urgently summon the Marquis of Changling back to Luoyang, while Zhong Liao was only the deputy general of Marquis Changling at the time. After Marquis Changling left, Zhong Liao temporarily took charge of the Southern Army. Chai Bozhong said solemnly: “The emperor summoned, many generals under the Marquis of Changling felt that they were more fortunate and less fortunate, and discouraged the Marquis of Changling from returning to the capital, but the Marquis of Changling did not obey the dissuasion of the generals and returned to the capital… .!”
“How about after returning to Beijing?” Qi Ning asked immediately.
Chai Bozhong shook his head and said, “No one knows what happened next. When the Marquis of Changling returned to the capital, it is said that many people saw it, but since the day he entered the capital, the Marquis of Changling suddenly disappeared, and after a few days, he disappeared. There is a decree sent to the front line to promote Zhong Liao as the commander of the Southern Army Corps, which would mean that if the right to lead the army of the Marquis of Changling was taken away.”
“The Marquis of Changling has no news, so his family…?”
Chai Bozhong asked curiously, “Don’t you know that the Marquis of Changling did not marry and have children?”
Qi Ning was a little surprised: “He has no family?”
“The age of the Marquis Changling is similar to that of Ling Zun.” Chai Bozhong said: “From a young age, Marquis Changling was obsessed with military tactics and tactics, and was obsessed with martial arts, but he had no interest in beauty. The prince also fought openly and secretly for the throne, and the Marquis of Changling was the most favored by the former emperor of Chongming at that time, and the possibility of succeeding the throne was the greatest, but the Marquis of Changling had no intention of taking the throne. After the former emperor of Chongming died, the former emperor inherited the throne.”
When Qi Ning was an envoy to the Eastern Qi, he had a general understanding of the Beitang family. The founding emperor of the Northern Han Dynasty was Beitang Tianwu. After Beitang Tianwu passed away, the successor was Emperor Chongming, while Muyun was waiting for Beitang. Tang Huanye was the brother of Emperor Chongming. After Emperor Chongming passed away, Bei Tanghuan inherited the throne, while Beitangqing, Marquis of Changling, and Beitangyu, Prince Yu, were both brothers of Beitanghuan. .
The Beitang family believes that they are very prosperous, but because of this, the royal family’s infighting is also very serious.
“In the beginning, there were many people who wanted to attach to the Marquis of Changling, and the golden beauties were sent to the Marquis of Changling’s mansion, but in the eyes of the world, one of the most beautiful beauties in the world is like dung in the eyes of the Marquis of Changling.” Chai Bozhong He sighed: “As long as there are golden beauties sent over, they will be turned away. On the contrary, if there are some rare horses and weapons, the Marquis of Changling will happily accept them.”
Qi Ning thought to himself that this big man of the Marquis of Changling was disdainful of the beauty, and he didn’t know what was wrong with the Marquis of Changling?
He couldn’t help but think of evil in his heart. Could it be that the Marquis of Changling actually liked masculinity?
“So, the Marquis of Changling is considered to be alone and carefree?”
Chai Bozhong said: “That’s the truth. The Han imperial family is prosperous, there are many princes under the emperor’s knees, and there are sons and daughters under Prince Yu’s knees. Only the Marquis of Changling was not married, and when he disappeared, he still had no heirs.”
“Master Chai, after Changling Hou entered the capital that time, there is no news. Didn’t the court explain it to the outside world?” Qi Ning frowned: “Changling Hou is your famous Northern Han general, such a person suddenly disappeared, he should have Did someone ask?”
Chai Bozhong shook his head and said, “Actually, no one has ever asked about this. At that time, rumors about the usurping of the throne by the Marquis of Changling were spreading. The Marquis of Changling suddenly returned to Beijing at that time, and then disappeared suddenly. You can guess how many points, who would dare to ask more about this kind of thing.” Raising his hand to stroke his beard, he sighed, “After all, everyone has only one head, and he will lose if he talks too much.
