Five hundred thousand taels is nothing compared with the tax revenue of the imperial court for one year, but it also depends on the timing.

It takes a lot of money to maintain the operation of the imperial court and support the military expenditure. The imperial court is already "poor" and is waiting to resume farming after the Spring Festival.

The original intention of peace negotiation is to "survive". Yunzhou wants to force Dafeng to death through peace negotiation, but the imperial court will not agree.

Emperor Yongxing said lightly:

"I intend to have peace talks with Yunzhou. It seems that Yunzhou is unwilling to have peace talks with the imperial court."

Ji Yuan frowned

"Your Majesty, I'm in a dilemma. My Yunzhou army is very powerful. If my father didn't care about the world, I'm afraid it would have been in the city. In the eyes of the imperial court, it's like giving alms to beggars when we have sincere peace talks in Yunzhou? "

He once again mentioned the superiority of Yunzhou army in the battlefield, implying the unequal relationship between the two sides.

Hearing the speech, Emperor Yongxing and the princes frowned.

At this time, Ji Yuan suddenly changed the subject and sighed:

"Well, I'm good at advocating it. Take a step back. This year's annual tribute can be halved, but it will be made up next year.

"Your Majesty, my lords, what do you think?"

Emperor Yongxing breathed out in silence and said with a smile:

"As for the detailed rules, it is up to Honglu temple to consult with Ambassador Ji."

The so-called detailed rules are to continue bargaining and wrangling.

In front of the hall, we only discuss a general idea, but not details.

Xu yuanshuang listened in silence and almost found out Ji Yuan's routine. Last night, Ji Yuan and Ge Wenxuan sent a message to each other. They discussed and analyzed in advance the hearts of the emperor Dafeng and the princes, as well as their tolerance.

The conclusion is that the limit is between 200000 and 250000 taels of silver.

On the way out, Xu yuanshuang is still thinking about what happened in the early Dynasty. First, it was spread in the officialdom and the upper society in the capital, and then slowly spread among the people at the bottom. At dusk, rumors spread in the market that the imperial court cut the land for peace and recognized the rebels as the orthodox of the Central Plains.

"When I saw the bandits coming to the city yesterday, I knew that the court wanted peace."

"Well, it's better not to fight. The world is in chaos..... But I always feel reluctant to think about it. Why did the imperial court say it was defeated when it said it was defeated? How beautiful it was when it sent troops to fight against the witchcraft last year."

"It's said that even Jian Zheng is dead. That's the old fairy in Si Tian Jian. Well, it's going to change. "

"What about Xu Yinluo? Did Xu Yinluo watch the court secede the land for peace? "

"Xu Yinluo did his best. A while ago, the imperial court put up a notice saying that Xu Yinluo made an alliance with the ten thousand demon Kingdom and the Gu nationality. Without Buddhism, we have other allies."

"Alas, who can think of it? Qingzhou said that if it was lost, it would be lost. I have no hope. If anything happened before, Xu Yinluo would come out."

.............

Post station.

Ji Yuan took out the magic weapon and held up a sound insulation array. After listening to the report from his subordinates, he said with a smile:

"It's quite lively outside. These bookworms, who don't know the greatness of heaven and earth, are just unimportant little people. Our next goal is to test Xu Qi'an."

When Xu yuanshuang heard about Xu Qian, he asked:

"How to test?"

Ji Yuan's silver bone fan turns around and says:

"For example, at the end of the negotiation, I suddenly made up a condition that I should marry Dafeng to one of the two princesses in Lin'an Huaiqing."

Xu Qi'an has an engagement with Lin'an, which he inquired about from the people sent by imperial concubine Chen.

Xu yuanshuang frowned

"Are you looking for death?"

If we really want to do so, it is one thing whether the peace talks can be achieved or not. It is another matter whether Xu Qi'an will let him leave the capital alive or not.

Ji Yuan laughs

"The two princesses and I are of the same race. Naturally, the marriage is not in our vein, it's Yuanhuai. What do you think Xu Qian will do? Can he do it to his own brother? "

"He will!" Xu Yuanhuai's face suddenly changed, which forced him to die.

"I'm kidding. I'll make you nervous."

Ji Yuan laughs with evil taste, suddenly sits upright and says:

"Xu Qi'an hasn't shown up. We don't know what he's up to behind his back.

"Although JianZheng is sealed, it's JianZheng. Who knows what cards will be left. The national master didn't know, so he wanted to test Xu Qi'an, through the peace talks to test Xu Qi'an, in order to understand the backhand of the prison. "

Xu yuanshuang's face slightly improved and asked:

"Nine elder brother think, he can have what card?"

Ji Yuan thinks about it and laughs

"Dead end!

"This is a dead end for Xu Qi'an. If I were him, I would turn a blind eye to the peace talks all the time, and then take advantage of the time that the peace talks have won, I would go around begging my grandfather to sue my grandmother, and solicit the super strong to be my ally.

"So, our trip to the capital is due to nothing. There will be no danger."

Ji Yuan's folding fan rotates:

"Even if he has the ability to communicate with heaven, he can only recognize it by holding his nose. Ah, I really want to see his dead end posture, but it's not the time yet. We have to wait for us to conquer the capital. "

.............

Jingxiu palace.

"Mother concubine, I listen to Huaiqing say, once cut the land to seek peace, big Feng completely no help."

Lin'an worried said, goose face is no longer bright, dyed a layer of haze.

Chen Guifei said anxiously:

"There's no other way. If you don't want to make peace, do you want to continue fighting with Yunzhou? If there is a chance of winning, will your majesty and the guilds make peace with one mind.

"Peace is the only way out now, or you'll count on your fiance."

Lin'an is biting his lips and wants to cry

"Why do you hate him so much, concubine?"

A figure in white flashed through her mind, gritting her teeth

"There's nothing good about Xu."

She immediately softened her heart and took Lin'an's hand

"Huaiqing has been a black eyed girl since she was a child. I can't believe her words. Lin'an, you don't understand. Now no one can save the imperial court except for peace. "

............

The palace.

Qian Qingshu, wearing a thick cloak, went straight to Wang Zhenwen's bedroom.

Wang Zhenwen saw him come in, waved his hand, held back his servant girl, and asked directly:

"What are the conditions?"

Qian Qingshu repeated the four conditions of Yunzhou.

"Against the party! Against the party! "

Wang Zhenwen scolded several times and suddenly coughed violently.

Qian Qingshu sat by the bed and stroked his back to help him feel comfortable

"So far, your majesty has agreed, but it is impossible to cede the three continents. Your Majesty's bottom line is to cede Yuzhou. "

"We admit that Qianlong city is the orthodox of the Central Plains. We disorganize our people, demand money and silk, drain our financial resources, cede the three continents, and become powerful completely..."

Wang Zhenwen murmured:

"It's over. I'm powerless. I'm powerless."

Even if Wei Yuan resurrects, he will not be able to play this game.

Qian Qingshu sighed

"But who can persuade his majesty? Besides, peace negotiation is to conform to the general trend. Today, only Xu Qi'an is able to go against the trend.

"But brother Wang, forcing Xu Qi'an to break with the imperial court is not a conspiracy of the Yunzhou rebellion. He never showed up, but he understood that.

"I've found out that he's in Si Tian Jian, and I've sent a messenger. If he wanted to come, he would have come long ago."

............

Chief Tianjian, big bedroom.

Xu Qi'an was immersed in the bath bucket, with his back against the wall of the bucket. In his arms, he sat a flower god who was nearly forty years old and more delicate than a girl.

She sat in Xu Qi'an's arms, her head resting on his shoulder, her face flushed, her eyes blurred, and she had no strength.

"What's the time..."

After a hard half-time, mu Nanzhi asked weakly.

"Just after lunch."

Xu Qi'an pinches mu Nanzhi's Willow waist and doesn't let her leave her arms for a moment. She is energetic.

The beauty in her arms is white and soft. Her skin is like ivory, delicate and elastic.

After lunch, mu Nanzhi cried

"Are you an animal? You've been playing with me for a day and a night. I, I'm not going to double repair with you... "

Compared with Xiaoyu, your combat effectiveness is too weak

"The effect of the first double repair is the best. At present, my gas engine is still growing, and it will stop when it reaches the limit. The Qi in your body is also powerful. Nanzhi, do you know how many people are eager for this kind of practice with soaring accomplishments? "

Beside the bathtub, water stains were everywhere. The clothes and belly pockets on the screen had already fallen to the ground and were soaked by the overflowing bath water.

The spacious and strong bed was in a mess, the quilt fell on the ground, the sheets were wrinkled and messy, and there were irregular marks left.

Thanks to the richness of Huashen Lingyun, it took Xu Qi'an only one night to stabilize his foundation.

In normal state, it takes about ten days after promotion to stabilize the state and adapt to the strength.

At this time, he felt the familiar palpitation.

Waving from the scattered clothes to call the book fragments.

First, the Yunzhou mission has met Yongxing, and Yunzhou has given four conditions

Huaiqing this morning at the meeting of the voice of the matter, detailed transmission in the book chat group.

Finally, the simple evaluation is as follows

[1: he is a very powerful character, and Yongxing and other officials have no bargaining chips to negotiate with him

[7: losers!]

The son said.

After reading Huaiqing's report, Li lingsu feels aggrieved for Dafeng, not to mention Li Miaozhen, who is jealous of evil.

[2] if the wasteful emperor really ceded the land of three continents, would not Xu Pingfeng and the Yunzhou army be as powerful as a tiger. Does Dafeng still have a chance to win?

Xu Ningyan, what should we do? Do you want to fight or how? You have a word

Recently, Xu Qi'an has rarely sent a letter to speak, which makes her anxious to sleep and eat.

The other members of the heaven and earth society are also anxious, and Dafeng is sliding into the abyss step by step, but there is nothing he can do.

Don't worry. I'll take care of the peace talks

After a simple explanation, he holds the soft and powerless mu Nanzhi and chats with Xueba princess.

[3: is everything ready, your highness
