Mrs.
Cai snorted at Liu Cong's rudeness and ordered someone to serve tea.
Asked directly to the point: "Our mother and son are now the people of the Han Dynasty, I don't know what the Emperor of Great Wei sent you to do, if there is no important matter, please leave, don't affect our family, otherwise I will report to the official and arrest people."
The envoy at the head smiled slightly: "Hehe, Mrs. doesn't have to be so vigilant, I think that Mrs.
Liu's scenery over the years is not as good as when Liu Jingzhou was alive."
"You still need to say this," Mrs.
Cai snorted coldly, "Madam, I have been a princess for a few years."
The envoy stroked his beard and smiled: "Yes, it's good that Liu Jingzhou brought hundreds of thousands of armor, the king of Chu who was sealed by the imperial court, and madam, you are also the princess of Chu, compared to the current business of Qinglou Goolan I don't know how many times noble I haven't experienced the glory, I don't know the scenery, I think Mrs. must want to be a princess again."
"Of course I thought about it," Mrs.
Cai replied without thinking, frowning, "But just thinking about it is useless, Cong'er can't even mix up a half-official position, where can I go to be a princess, I can't marry Liu Wei's son to be a princess, hehe?"
Mrs.
Cai complained and recalled, her eyes full of nostalgia and reluctance to the past.
The corners of the envoy's mouth curled slightly: "Liu Wei can't give it to you, but the Great Wei Emperor can't give it to you."
"What do you mean by that," Mrs.
Cai asked with Liu Cong.
"Bring it up," the messenger commanded his attendants.
The burden was presented, and it was spread out neatly, only to see that there was a seal ribbon inside.
The envoy took it in his hand and shook the bottom towards Mrs.
Cai's mother and son, and the bottom was written in seal script with the four big characters of "The Seal of the King of Chu", "Your Majesty said, if Mrs. and Liu Cong's son are willing to abandon the darkness and turn to the light, the king is willing to transfer the King of Chu of Cao Chong's son to Gongzi, and your descendants will be hereditarily replaced." ” "I" Liu Cong pointed to his nose and was surprised and delighted, and he almost flowed out, "I am willing, I am willing."
I am willing to abandon the darkness and turn to the light."
As he spoke, he snatched the seal ribbon from the messenger's arms and hugged it in his arms, and kissed him several times: "Hahahaha, from now on, I will be the king of Chu."
Compared with the ecstatic Liu Cong, Mrs.
Cai was much calmer, and said in a deep voice: "No merit will be punished."
Our mother and son now have neither soldiers nor power, and I don't know what the Great Wei Emperor can help with, so I actually confer the throne on each other."
"Mrs.
Hehe doesn't have military power, but Ling Brother General Cai Deqi has military power."
The envoy took a sip of tea and told the purpose of the trip.
"Liu Bian's great seal of generals, four elephants, five tigers, six lin, seven sons, eight horses, nine Xiao, ten victories, etc., but they don't have General Cai's share, thinking about it, General Cai will definitely not be reconciled, which also shows that Liu Jingzhou's old department is dispensable in Liu Wei's eyes."
Mrs.
Cai bowed slightly, and there was resentment in her eyes: "Except for Huang Zhong, a guy who seeks glory behind his back, Deqi, Huang Zu, Fu Xun, Han Song and others are all doing nothing, and Liu Wei really doesn't look down on our old Jingzhou department."
"Present it to Madame" The envoy once again instructed his entourage to bring up another bag and open it, and there were two seals inside, and he pushed forward and said: "These two seals are the Great Seals of General Anxi and General Annan, which were promised by our Emperor Great Wei to the two generals Cai Deqi and Huang Zu.
Madame Trouble managed to inform the two generals that they would turn against Wei if they were willing to turn their backs.
When the king's soldiers are on the Yangtze River, they will definitely do what they say."
As he spoke, the envoy took out the letter from his bosom and presented it to Mrs.
Cai: "Here is the handwritten letter of the Emperor of Great Wei, please look at it."
Mrs.
Cai took it apart, quickly browsed it, and finally muttered: "This matter is very important, I must discuss it with De Jue before I can give an answer to the envoy." ” "Hehe, it should be," the envoy stood up, "In that case, I will take my leave, and I will secretly leave Jinling tomorrow."
After Madame and General Cai discussed it.
You can send envoys to the Huainan area to find my Cao Wei army.
At present, His Majesty is leading 200,000 heroes to the south, sweeping Huainan and drinking the Yangtze River, just around the corner."
Mrs.
Cai had also heard the battle report of Cao Wei's army pressing the border.
His heart was full of expectations for Cao Cao's victory, and he nodded: "Please rest assured, I will send someone to rush to the mouth of the water tomorrow to contact Deju, if Deju intends to abandon the darkness and turn to the light, he will definitely send an envoy north to pay homage to the king." ” At that moment, several messengers took their leave and quietly left Cai's mansion in the autumn rain.
Come to the streets.
A few people turned left and right, walked through the streets and alleys, walked for half an hour, and came to a palatial mansion to stop outside the door, and quietly exchanged heads.

"This is the mansion of Zhu Teng, the owner of Furong Pavilion, let's stuff the letter into it."
Several people quietly slipped an anonymous report letter into the crack of the door, and then quietly disappeared into the night.
At the same time, Wen Ping, who was entrusted by Cao Cao, quickly came to the camp of Weixukou, secretly met Cai Mao and Huang Zu, and lobbied Cai Mao and Huang Zu to surrender with almost the same rhetoric as the Jinling envoy.
Cai Mao and Huang Zu were also quite dissatisfied with Liu Wei Dafeng and the fact that the two of them were snubbed, and they were full of complaints.
But he also knew that the general trend of the world was tilting towards Liu Bian, and if he betrayed Liu Bian, he would have no way out, so he could only swallow his anger and be inferior.
At this moment, after listening to Wen Ping's words, Cao Cao actually wanted to confer such an important position as General Anxi and General Annan, and his heart couldn't help but throb, but he didn't dare to agree easily, after all, he still needed to weigh it.
There is no turning back when the bow is opened, as long as the two of them make the decision to betray the Eastern Han Dynasty, they can only follow Cao Cao to the black.
"Wen Zhongye, this matter is not trivial, the two of us need to weigh it carefully.
The family members are all in Jinling, even if we want to rebel, we should send someone to take the family out first" Cai Mao and Huang Zu glanced at each other and made a final summary.
"What the two colleagues said is very true, then Wen Ping will go back to the north first and wait for your news."
Wen Ping gave up his hand according to Cao Cao's instructions, and before leaving, he once again described the situation, "Although General Xiahou Yuanrang was defeated in Xuzhou, General Cao Zixiao also defeated Xue Li in Yuzhou, and is currently leading an army of nearly 200,000 with the Great Wei Emperor to the south, and the defenders of the entire Huainan are only about 50,000, so it can naturally be decided in a battle."
As long as the two generals lead their troops to defect, after our Cao Wei army takes Shouchun and Hefei, they can come to the edge of the Yangtze River and point their swords at Jinling."
The mouth of the Yangtze River guards the north bank of the Yangtze River, Jinling in the east, and Chaisang in the west, and the geographical location is very important.
It has always been an important port to cross the Yangtze River, and if Cai Mao and Huang Zu surrender directly, it can indeed make Cao Cao directly threaten Jinling.
This also made Cai Mao and Huang Zu believe in Cao Cao's sincerity, because the two of them could bring him huge strategic benefits, so Cao Cao's price of two senior generals was still worth it.
Under the cover of night, Wen Ping said goodbye to Cai and Huang, left the camp alone, and headed north.
After Wen Ping left, Cai Mao and Huang Zu returned to the Shuai Tent to discuss.
Cai Mao spoke first: "Brother Huang, what do you think?"
Huang Zu, who was blinded by Sun Ce's shooting, stroked his beard and muttered: "Cao Cao's conditions are not immovable, but how sure Cao Cao can be of defeating Liu Wei We must be cautious at this point, for fear that we will defect to Cao Cao, but finally lose to the Eastern Han Dynasty, in that case, we will face the disaster of extermination."
"Otherwise, tomorrow I will ask someone to go to the Ministry of Officials and the Ministry of War to probe the situation, and see if we can raise the rank of you and me to the top" Cai Mao proposed a compromise method, "The same failed princes and generals, why do Guan Yuguan worship the former general, Zhang Feiguan worship General Pingxi, but you and I are just miscellaneous generals" "Good" Huang Zu Fu agreed, "If we can give you and me a promotion, we will continue to mix under Liu Wei, if we can't treat everyone equally, a bowl of water is even, we will turn against Cao."
Cai Mao nodded: "Most of the generals and colonels in the army are descendants of you and me, only more than 1,000 soldiers have been recruited in recent years, and there are two partial generals, three captains, and a number of military candidates and tun commanders.
If you and I make up our minds to defect at that time, let's set up a game and kill it."
The discussion stopped, and the two went to rest.
In the early morning of the next day, the autumn rain, which had been raining for four or five consecutive days, finally stopped, and the weather began to clear up.
The servants of Zhu Teng's family got up early in the morning to open the door, but found that a cowhide letter fell to the ground, and he couldn't help but be surprised: "Who is this who made trouble and sandwiched the letter between the cracks in the door?"
glanced at it, and it read "Zhu Yuanwai's relatives" five big words, and hurriedly took it and knocked on the master's door.
Zhu Teng, who was stunned, heard that someone had a suicide note at night, so he yawned and took it and opened it, and after reading it, he couldn't help but be shocked, high-fived and laughed: "Haha, there is finally a way to bring down the Cai family's Nuanxiang Pavilion, and from now on we will lack a direct competitor."
Zhu Yuanwai immediately dressed neatly, took the letter and went straight to his own house, who served as a household member in the imperial court, and presented the letter: "It's terrible, look at the letter, the Cai family conspired to collude with Cao Wei, and is ready to surrender with the Xukou" After reading it, the foreigner surnamed Zhu was taken aback, and he didn't care about asking for leave because he was ill, nor did he care about asking where the letter came from, so he immediately dressed up and ordered the servants to set up a carriage and go straight to Qianyang Palace.
Came to the palace gate and got off the carriage, trotted into the Taiji Palace, bowed and said: "It's terrible, the lower officials received a secret letter, reporting that Cai's group colluded with Huang Zu to Cao Wei, and intended to defect and sacrifice the Whiskers, please make a decision quickly."
When the hall heard this, there was an uproar, and Liu Ji immediately summoned Li Yuanfang after reading the letter: "Commander Li quickly led the Jinyi Guard to Cai's Mansion to investigate, and he must not let go of any clues."
"No" Li Yuanfang agreed, and immediately took three hundred brocade guards to the Cai family's mansion as quickly as possible. t1706231537:
