The honest and honest Uncle Bao blinked. He felt that the words of this Wei man named Du You were even more sharp, making it difficult for him to interrupt.

Come to think of it, only Tian Hu didn't think that their intention to come this time would damage the friendship between Qi and Wei. In his opinion, Wei should accept their request from Qi, so he asked unceremoniously: "

This envoy is here to discuss the ownership of the Song Dynasty with Mr. Zhao Run of your country on behalf of my Majesty the Qi Dynasty. Can Mr. Du be the master of such a big matter?"

Hearing this, Du You glanced at Tian Hu without anger and sneered secretly in his heart.

It has to be said that Du You now holds the two positions of "Shang Shu of the Ministry of Rites" and "Chief Assistant of the Internal Dynasty in Chui Gong Hall". He is already the head of hundreds of officials in the Wei court. Recently, he has also received visits from South Korea and Qin.

messenger, but no one dared to speak to him so rudely.

"Song Di?" Du You snorted softly and said nonchalantly: "It is indeed a trivial matter... I think I have the final say in this matter!"

Hearing this, Tian Hu was slightly surprised, but just as he was about to speak, he heard Zhu Jin, the left minister of the Ministry of Rites, interjecting with a stern face: "I'm sorry Zhu for not agreeing with the envoy's remarks. Song Dynasty is my great master.

In the land of Wei, the envoy said that he asked His Majesty the Crown Prince of our country to "discuss the ownership of the Song Dynasty" with Your Majesty. I'm afraid this is an unfair statement!"

From the side, the words of He Yu, the right minister of the Ministry of Rites, were even more direct: "May I ask your honorable envoy, what name does your country have to discuss the ownership of the Song Dynasty?"

Not to mention, as the Ministry of Rites has become the head of the six ministries, the three officers of the Ministry of Rites have become more confident in speaking. People who don't know about it may think that the officials of the Ministry of War are negotiating with these two envoys.

Perhaps seeing that the atmosphere in the house had become bad, Uncle Bao did not dare to let Tian Hu communicate with the Wei officials on the opposite side. He quickly stated his intention to divide Song County into two parts, with the west of the county belonging to the Wei State and the east of the county.

Belonging to the Song Dynasty restored by Song Yun.

To be honest, this proposal was really unexpected by Du You and others. After all, they originally thought that the Qi State would either side with their Wei State or the Song State that was restored by Song Yun. Unexpectedly, it turned out to be

This kind of muddy way.

Not to mention, even Du You, who had just said that he could make the decision, couldn't help but hesitate a little now. After all, what Uncle Bao said was not unreasonable: Anyway, Wei Guo is now letting Song Yun and Huan Hu go.

Occupying the eastern part of Song County is accumulating strength for the upcoming war with South Korea. Why not simply recognize the Song Dynasty restored by Song Yun?

To be honest, Du You is actually inclined to this point of view. In his opinion, what Wei should do now is to actively prepare for the war that is about to break out with South Korea - this war will directly affect Wei

The dominant position of the country and South Korea in the entire Central Plains is currently the most critical issue for the Wei State. In comparison, the Song State restored by Song Yun is nothing more than a scabies disease.

To put it more simply, if Wei State can defeat South Korea in that war, then there will be no country in the entire Central Plains that can stop Wei State from becoming the overlord of the Central Plains. When the time comes, Wei State will have its hands free and can kill it casually.

That "fake Song Dynasty".

However, in this matter, Zhao Run, the crown prince of the East Palace, was extremely determined and determined to safeguard Wei's sovereignty over Song County. To be honest, Du You was opposed to it. It was a pity that the prince, although he was usually too lazy to do anything right,

But once you do it seriously

The decision was made, but no one could influence it. Therefore, in the end, Du You could only sit back and watch the three Wei armies stationed in Song County, namely the Junshui Army, Fenxing Army, and Chenggao Army, represent the imperial court and formally negotiate with Song Yun's Bei Bo.

The army went to war with the puppet Song Dynasty.

On the same day, after the initial contact between the Ministry of Rites and the Qi envoys, Du You, the Minister of Rites, went to the East Palace to meet with Prince Zhao Run in person and explained the purpose of the two Qi envoys, Tian Hu and Bao Shu.

Zhao Hongrun was also surprised when he heard that Qi State intended to divide Song County into two.

But being unexpected did not mean that he was willing to accept Qi Guo's proposal: "Tell them, it is absolutely impossible!"

Hearing this, Du You, the Minister of Rites, hesitated for a moment and brought up the old matter again: "Your Highness, I think this matter is okay... After all, the top priority of the Wei Dynasty is to prepare for the war with South Korea. As long as we defeat South Korea,

, then the overall situation has been decided. Even if Qi State refuses to admit it in the end, the world will recognize it.

However, our great Wei will replace Qi and become the overlord of the Central Plains. In comparison, Song Yun is just a clown, and the pseudo-Song Dynasty is just a scabies disease. If this insignificant existence makes our great Wei compete with South Korea for supremacy

I missed the opportunity and even lost the battle. I think this is an unwise move... Please think again, Your Highness."

Zhao Hongrun shook his head after hearing this and explained frankly: "Don't worry, Mr. Du, of course I understand that the top priority of Wei Dynasty now is to actively prepare for war with South Korea. Therefore, I have never thought of sending out a large-scale army to conquer Song County. Those in the market

The so-called rumors that "we, the Wei Dynasty, will dispatch hundreds of thousands of troops to conquer the puppet Song Dynasty" are just my intention to let go.

The news of going out is just to let some people understand the truth. The land of Song Dynasty is the territory of Wei Dynasty, and Wei Dynasty will never give up this land." At this point, he lowered his voice and added: "This piece of meat

, they will also rot in my Da Wei’s pot. Even if I, Da Wei, can’t eat them all for the time being, whoever dares to reach out will have his hands chopped off!”

Du You nodded, and then said worriedly: "I am afraid that because of this, I will turn against Qi State..."

It's not that he is afraid of how powerful Qi is, Du You just doesn't want to cause trouble when his Wei State is about to break out in a decisive battle with South Korea. After all, this is the opportunity that his Wei State has waited for for who knows how many years to usher in the opportunity to become the hegemon of the Central Plains.

How can we not pay attention to it?

After thinking about it, Du You still persuaded: "I still feel that we, the Wei Dynasty, should prepare for war with all our strength, and we should not be distracted by Song Yun and the fake Song Dynasty."

After hearing this, Zhao Hongrun shook his head and said with a smile: "Du Qing, believe it or not, if we, the Wei Dynasty, prepare for war with all our strength, even if South Korea is fully prepared by then, there is a high probability that it will not dare to provoke it rashly.

That war..."

Du You nodded when he heard this. He did not deny Zhao Hongrun's speculation. After all, he was not the only one who feared defeat. Wouldn't the Koreans be worried? You must know that in recent years, although South Korea and Wei have actually

The national strength is comparable, but for various reasons, South Korea has suffered several defeats at the hands of Wei so far. In fact, the Koreans are under greater pressure.

It is precisely because of this that after the Wei State eliminated Lin Hu last year, even though South Korea had defeated Dong Hu at that time, it still hurriedly hinted at the pretext of sending congratulatory gifts to the Wei State.

It's just a fateful decisive battle for status - perhaps the Koreans are still secretly praying that it would be best if a natural and man-made disaster suddenly breaks out in the Wei Kingdom, so that this war with a half-win outcome will not need to be fought again.

Seeing Du You nodding, Zhao Hongrun said with a smile: "So, although the all-out war between Wei Dynasty and South Korea may break out at any time, as the saying goes, we are afraid of defeating both sides. We will worry about defeat, and

South Korea will also be worried about defeat. What will be the consequences?... If Du Qing said it, the all-out war between Wei and South Korea is probably far away.

On the other side of the Song Dynasty, we, the Wei Dynasty, lost our territory in vain... Yes, the pseudo-Song Dynasty was just a scabies disease, but Du Qing needs to know that in the game of chess in Song County, our Wei Dynasty's opponent is Qi State.

Instead of the Song people, the Qi people are still immersed in their Spring and Autumn Dream of the "Era of Qi King Lu Xi", thinking that they are the first in the world. If we, the Wei Dynasty, shrink back this time, it will only embolden the arrogance of those people."

Having said this, he took a long breath and said in a deep voice: "It is necessary for those self-righteous Qi people to recognize the reality. The era of Qi's dominance of the Central Plains has long ended. Now, we, the Wei Dynasty, stand at the center of the Central Plains.

Top!"

Looking at the proud and arrogant Crown Prince in front of him, Du You's hands trembled with excitement.

To be fair, Zhao Hongrun's remarks did not convince the old minister, but the former's last heroic words moved Du You, and even though there were thousands of words in his chest, they seemed to be gathering out of control.
