Sun Kewang was led into the inn and temporarily stayed in. He was nervous when he saw and heard all the way.

From Wuchang to Yangzhou, most of the territory of the Ming Dynasty was in his eyes.

Previously, Sun Kewang thought that Zhou Guoxiong was in Guanzhong and had a rich land of Bashu, and was strong. However, after seeing the Ming Dynasty, he realized that there was a big gap between the two.

This made Sun Kewang desperately hope to reach a treaty of surrender with the Ming Dynasty so that he could catch up with the Zhou State and gain time.

"Sun Prime Minister Sun has a good rest!" After Wang Fuzhi arranged them in the inn, he bowed and said, "I will leave first!"

Sun Kewang sent Wang Fuzhi outside the door and instructed: "Please inform the Regent as soon as possible!"

Wang Fuzhi left the inn and went to the palace.

In the Yangzhou palace, Zhao Ming stood in front of a map with his hands behind his back, falling into deep thought.

Du Yinxi, Chen Mingyu and others stood quietly aside without disturbing the Regent's thoughts.

At this time, an eunuch entered the hall and whispered: "Report to your Highness, the King of Rites is asking for your opinion!"

Zhao Ming turned around and said, "Let him come in!"

Soon after, Wang Fuzhi entered the palace and saluted: "Your Highness!"

Zhao Ming waved his hand, signaled him to avoid the gift, and then asked, "Where are you all settled?"

Wang Fuzhidao: "Report to Your Highness, the Ministry of Rites has placed Sun Kewang in the inn."

Zhao Ming nodded slightly, Wu Sangui actually sent Sun Kewang to the Ming Dynasty. Zhao Ming was very surprised when he heard the news.

"I originally thought Wu Sangui would not surrender easily, but he didn't want the Lone King to write an edict, so he bowed down and surrendered." Zhao Ming turned around, his face a little complicated, "What do you think about this?"

Du Yinxi said: "Your Highness, I think this matter is a bit abnormal!"

Chen Mingyu also said: "It is indeed a bit unreasonable for Wu Sangui to surrender so readily."

Zhao Ming smiled, "Oh, the gentlemen can see it. Can't Wu Sangui be afraid of the Lone King and the Ming Dynasty?"

"Two years ago, Wu Sangui was preparing to invade Huguang and compete with His Highness. Now even if he is afraid of the Ming Dynasty, he should not surrender so easily!" Du Yinxi said: "This time Wu Sangui promised to surrender, he must have had some plans or some difficulties that Zhou State suffered."

It was not because of Zhao Ming's reputation that Zhao Ming felt a little uncomfortable, but Zhao Ming also knew that although Wu Sangui was very cowardly, he would not surrender if he didn't fight a war.

Zhao Ming thought for a moment, then asked Wang Fuzhi: "What did Sun Kewang say?"

Wang Fuzhi said, "Report to Your Highness, Sun Kewang has entrusted his ministers several times to inform His Highness as soon as possible. He seemed very eager to get his highness summoned and wanted to reach a treaty of sanctions with the court as soon as possible!"

Du Yinxi said: "Why are you so anxious to surrender?"

Zhao Ming frowned, paced back and forth, and then stood still after a while, and said in a deep voice: "The more anxious Sun Kewang is, the more the Lone King will drag it!"

After saying that, Zhao Ming immediately ordered: "Go and call Hu Weizong!"

Soon, Hu Weizong entered the palace and bowed with his fists, "Your Highness!"

Zhao Ming said in a deep voice: "I ordered the Military Information Department in Guanzhong to do a detailed job and immediately find out whether there is any major event in Zhou State in the near future!"

Hu Weizong immediately saluted, "I will receive the order!"

Zhao Ming nodded, "Since that's the case, then the Gu will find out their true purpose for a while."

...

Early December.

A thin layer of snow fell on the north of the Yangtze River.

Sun Kewang was in the inn for many days but had not been summoned, and he couldn't help but feel anxious.

This time he came to the Ming Dynasty to shoulder heavy responsibilities. One is to negotiate peace with the Ming Dynasty as soon as possible, and the other is to try to meet someone.

However, after arriving in Yangzhou, he was placed under house arrest in the inn and did not step out of the inn for more than half a month.

As time goes by, Sun Kewang couldn't help but feel a little anxious and urged the inn officials many times to ask when Zhao Ming would be summoned.

In the morning, Sun Kewang found the postmaster again and waited angrily, "I have been in Yangzhou for half a month, and the regent of the court has never summoned him. Since the court is so despised by the court, please inform the court. If you don't want to summon him, then I will return to Guanzhong in a near future!"

After all, Sun Kewang was the prime minister of Zhou. The postmaster hurriedly laughed and said nonsense: "Sun Prime Minister Sun's country is angry, your highness will no longer be Yangzhou. When you come back, you will definitely be the first to summon Prime Minister Sun. Please wait patiently."

Sun Kewang said angrily: "Has your regent gone to Java?"

As he was talking, Wang Fuzhi suddenly entered the inn courtyard and saw Sun Kewang with an angry look in the yard, so he smiled and said, "Sun Guoguo, what's this?"

Sun Kewang turned his head and immediately gave up the postmaster, questioning Wang Fuzhi, who had not shown up for half a month: "Master Wang, what does your court mean? Since we have asked our Zhou Kingdom to be a vassal, our lord was originally a Ming minister, and we immediately sent our prime minister to come. Your court has not seen each other for a long time. Could it be that we are playing with our Zhou Kingdom?"

Wang Fuzhi hurriedly comforted him: "Haha~ Prime Minister Sun's anger! It's the end of the year, and the affairs are complicated. His Highness the Regent has been doing everything he can, and he really can't take time. Whenever he has time, he will immediately ask the official to summon Prime Minister Sun."

Sun Kewang narrowed his eyes, "The Regent is in Yangzhou?"

Wang Fuzhi glanced at Yicheng, "Haha~ I just came back!"

...

In the early morning, the Regent went to the palace.

Zhao Ming sat in the hall with a few snacks on the table. Zhao Ming was drinking seafood porridge and eating pickles.

At this time, the guard reported: "Your Highness, Sun Ke hoped to come."

Zhao Ming heard the words, "Let him come in!"

Soon, Sun Kewang came in, and Zhao Ming was already waiting outside the hall.

Nowadays, there are not many people who can interest Zhao Ming. Li Dingguo is one, Du Yinxi is one, and Sun Kewang is one.

After all, it is still worthy of Zhao Ming's attention to the barren land of Yunnan and Guizhou to fight against the Qing Dynasty for nearly ten years and almost turn the tables.

"Haha~" Zhao Ming looked at Sun Kewang, seven feet tall, dark skin, and quite strong, and couldn't help laughing: "Sun Prime Minister, the Lone King has heard of your name for a long time!"

When Sun Kewang saw Zhao Minggao half of his head, he was strong and strong, and he had to admit that Zhao Ming was majestic.

Seeing that Zhao Ming was able to fight and was good at managing finances and governing the country, he classified Zhao Ming as one of himself, and he was a Confucian general who became a general and a prime minister.

Sun Kewang was confused and didn't know where he got the courage to classify himself as a Confucian general. But now it seems that Zhao Ming is more like a military general, and he can't help but feel a little disappointed.

"Sun Kewang, the left prime minister of Zhou State, will meet with the regent of the Ming Dynasty!" Sun Kewang bowed and bowed.

Zhao Ming quickly stepped forward and grabbed his hand, "I haven't eaten yet!"

Sun Kewang was slightly stunned, "Your Highness, I am a minister to the Zhou Kingdom today~"

Zhao Ming pulled Sun Kewang into the house without saying a word, "Eat first!"

Zhao Ming sat down and asked someone to add dishes to Sun Kewang, "Try seafood porridge and this Yangzhou fried rice. It has a nice name, called the Twenty-Four Bridge Moon Night."

Sun Kewang did not eat breakfast, so he picked up the dishes and chopsticks, but he was pretending to be in his heart, but he couldn't eat it.

Seeing Zhao Ming finishing a few bowls of porridge, Sun Kewang picked up the spoon and continued to ask: "Your Highness, about calling the vassal~"

Zhao Ming put the bowls and chopsticks on the table, wiped them with a handkerchief at any time, stood up, "Eat it! Let's go, follow the orphan king and say as he walks!"

Sun Kewang looked at the porridge that didn't move in the bowl, thinking that I hadn't eaten yet, but he did not speak any more. So he had to get up and follow Zhao Ming out of the palace.
