Chapter Two for One

In the current situation of financial difficulties and lack of troops in the Mongolian Yuan, and when the Central Plains are regarded as their core interests, they are powerless to rescue Sichuan and Shu. And they are worried that in the situation of the decline of the central government, the rise of local forces will threaten their status. Therefore, as long as the Song Dynasty has enough chips, it is impossible to let the Mongolian Yuan give up the "dispensable" Sichuan and Shu area.

Zhao Bing is the one who is now trying to make a decision. If you don’t want to let go, you can’t bear to let Kaifeng, and you can’t afford to lose face, so you can exchange it with Sichuan and Shu. He also knew that there were many knowledgeable people in the Mongolian Yuan, and it is not difficult to see the powerful relationship between them. Whether it can be negotiated is still unknown. But he thinks it is worth a try. He traded two for one, and the Mongolian Yuan is taking advantage of the "right" and is not afraid that any of them will be moved...

After the court discussion, Zhao Bing left the hall gate, and for a moment he was a little confused and didn't know where he should go. Although he had many wives, there were many doors. He had to consider entering this house and leaving that house, so as not to make the concubines jealous and the backyard fire. Otherwise, he would be the one who was unlucky. But now he was busy with business every day and was really not interested in thinking about these things.

"Official family, are you going back to the Tanbo Pavilion?" Wang De saw the little emperor standing outside the hall hesitating and asked softly.

"I don't know either!" Zhao Bing smiled bitterly and shook his head, "After returning to the court, I feel extremely uncomfortable. Although there are many things outside, there will be some relaxation in the end, but this palace is rarely at ease and tired!"

"I also feel this way. Even if the enemy is always on the side when we are outside, we are surrounded by large troops, so we don't have to worry about the safety of the officials. But when we return to the palace, I feel that there are people watching in secret, which makes people feel uneasy!" Wang De looked around, and was surrounded by eunuchs who had just entered the palace. Although he was respectful to him, he felt like he was on his back.

"Then let's find a reason to live in the imperial garden outside!" Zhao Bing said softly. He actually understood that the inner courtyard of the palace was more strict. In addition to guards and soldiers patrolling each other, there were also inner guards hidden in the surrounding guards. The inner uneasiness lies in the strangeness caused by sudden changes in the environment and the alienation caused by personnel changes, which is similar to the post-war emergency syndrome mentioned in the previous life.

"I don't dare. If the Empress Dowager and the Empress know, they won't beat me to death!" Wang De shook his head and said.

"I called myself a young man a few days ago, why did I change to an old slave in just three days after I came back?" Zhao Bing always felt that Wang De was wrong in speaking in the past two days, but he also felt that there was no change. Today I knew what was wrong.

"Oh, although we have only been out for a year, after returning to the palace, we find that there are new people everywhere, all of whom are young and healthy, or have a young face. Only then do we realize that we have become wilted into old cucumbers. Even if we call the young, we feel embarrassed. We can only call the old slave in front of His Majesty." Wang De looked sad, and felt a sense of "beauty has passed away", and sighed.

"Haha, you are only forty years old this year, which was the time. If Mr. Ying and the others heard it, they would have to beat you up!" Zhao Bing said with a smile.

"Looking back then, Mr. Ying, Jiang, Deng and Master Yuanmiao protected the official family to Qiongzhou. At that time, he was still very healthy and tirelessly helped the official family to plan and lay the foundation. Now he is in his resignation. He doesn't know what Master Yuanmiao is now!" Wang De sighed.

"I'm still sad. What's the matter I want you to do?" Zhao Bing and Wang De walked slowly down the steps, and the little yellow sect and the palace maid who were accompanying him followed far behind. He kicked him.

"There have been many changes in the palace, including the Queen Mother's decree and the Queen's decree. The old slave dared not act rashly. He could only secretly investigate some situations with some old people, check the documents to understand the inside story, and report to the official family after finding out the basics!" Wang Deyan said.

"Well, you did a good job, it's right to be cautious!" Zhao Bing nodded and praised.

"I always have to make some progress with the official family every day. This is called... it is called finding out the basics and planning before moving!" Wang De said with a smile.

"Talk about it!" Zhao Bing glared at him.

"Yes!" Wang De quickly said, "According to the old slave, the newly entered the palace, these Korean tribute women and eunuchs are handsome, serious, understand the rules, are very well-behaved and intelligent, proficient in calculating, female workers, and even the Queen Mother and several empresses. They have to go a few places, and they all win the favor of the empress dowagers!"

"These tribute girls and eunuchs were selected by Goryeo and trained rigorously before they were sent to the Mongolian Yuan Palace. But those who were not bad were already sent to us must have been selected again, and it must be good." Zhao Bing said.

"The income of the official family is that the old slaves asked those Korean slaves. They said that they were trained to be captured in the Mongolian Yuan court and my eunuch training. Therefore, they were very clear about the rules and etiquette in the palace, and they could even explain the old pattern of our homeland and the internal situations in various places." Wang Dedao, "I didn't believe it at first. Although it was smaller than the old palace, it was difficult to understand the situation everywhere in a few years. After asking them, they answered very well."

"It's hard to guard against a family thief!" Zhao Bing was even more surprised when he heard it. It seemed that the Mongol Yuan had put in hard work on these Goryeo people. You should know that after the truce of war, the time was not too long, so he sent a peace delegation. It was not easy to train them to such a level in such a short time. But he was not too surprised that they were proficient in Chinese. After all, Goryeo had close communication with the Central Plains dynasty since the Sui and Tang Dynasties and was not unfamiliar with Chinese. It was not difficult to train them after selection.

"The officials are worried that these Korean slaves are spies from the Mongolian Yuan Dynasty, and are sent to the palace to find out the secrets of our court, or..." Wang De looked around and said.

"It's impossible, but it's very possible to mix a few traitors. They lurk in the palace to find out the news, or wait for the opportunity to do a great job." Zhao Bing said. Sometimes he also feels that he is making ghosts every day, and becomes nervous. He feels that the people around him are like ghosts, but he also understands that his worries are not redundant. This kind of thing does not only appear in legendary stories and film and television dramas, but it is true.
