Chapter Twenty-Five: The Council and the Eastward Journey


Ni Henian's body seemed to absorb all the cold intentions in the palace and the entire Zhongzhou City.

I don't know if it's because of this, the early summer in Zhongzhou City this year is indeed hotter than usual.

Feng Qianhan, the deputy director of the Zhengwu Division, who entered the palace in the morning light, only felt that his official uniform was like a warm quilt on the kang head, even if the sweat on his body was shaken out by his soul power, but after a while, his body was very viscous and uncomfortable.

The group of officials who followed him thought that it was the hot weather and the reason why the body was uncomfortable, which made Feng Qianhan's face look extremely hazy and deep, they didn't know much about Purgatory Mountain, and they were not ordinary officials who were really powerful in Zhongzhou City, but the gods on their faces were completely different from Feng Qianhan.

The look on their faces can be described as excited, even ecstatic.

Because they also already knew that Emperor Damang had sent an envoy to formally propose peace to Yun Qin.

These ordinary officials are not standing high enough to see anything higher.

They didn't know, and it was impossible for them to think of what kind of background was behind the peace negotiation, they only knew that from the beginning of the Dragon Snake Border Pass and the large-scale battle with the cave man, the entire Yunqin had experienced nearly four years of war in a row.

For a country, four consecutive years of large-scale conquest is a great disaster.

This disaster has caused millions of Yunqin people to die, and countless originally wealthy families have become miserable, and now that this disaster is about to end, how can these officials not be happy What's more important is that Da Mang can't support it in the first place, and he proposes peace, which is admitting defeat.

There will be no major wars, and the winter wheat and early rice of Da Dexiang's many farms in Biluoling are about to be harvested, which shows that Da Dexiang has completely survived, and countless people in several southern provinces will no longer go hungry.

As long as the most basic food is not a problem, these officials are full of absolute confidence in the reorganization of many post-war matters.

So this sultry early summer, in the hearts of these officials, is the beginning of a peaceful and beautiful future.

As all the officials thought in their hearts, although the envoys representing Emperor Damang had just made formal contact with the military on the Nanling front and proposed peace, all the officials who gathered at the Jinluan Hall knew that the focus of the current court discussion could only be focused on the matter of peace.

As Li Chengyu, the head of the Zhengwu Division, officially reported the reckless peace proposal in the main hall, some officials who were originally confused and had no interest in the rest of the news that did not concern themselves suddenly shook their heads, and their ears were pricked up.

"In your opinion, whether this discussion should be discussed or not" "The people are in distress, and in the opinion of the ministers, the matter of peace should be negotiated as soon as possible."

"Between the ministers, you can make the reckless reckless land reparation." “” For a while, the ministers in the palace spoke one after another, for fear that the momentum would not be enough, so that the heads of the people on the dragon chair were hot again, and they patted the dragon chair and said: "We don't discuss it, and then fight" In the face of the surging and almost unanimous opinions of the ministers, Emperor Yunqin showed a meaningful and majestic smile: "If I heard correctly, it seems that you all have the same thoughts, peace talks are naturally to be discussed, and the key is what kind of price to make Da Mang pay." ” Hearing the implicit endorsement of peace talks in Emperor Yunqin's words, many officials were overjoyed, and the mountain called the saint wise.

"Since they all think like this, then summon the reckless envoys to Zhongzhou for peace talks."

Emperor Yun Qin said plainly and majestically.

"The minister believes that the place of the peace talks should not be in Zhongzhou, but should be placed on the front line of the border pass."

A voice rang out.

At this voice, most of the officials in the hall were shocked.

Because although this voice is decent, it is like a big ship with a smooth wind, suddenly being pulled by someone, and there are some accidents.

The empty hall suddenly fell silent, and everyone's eyes were focused on the person who spoke up.

The person who spoke out was Wu Tianxiang, the coordinator of the Zhengwu Division, the old man of the military, if he insisted on dividing it by faction, he belonged to Gu Yunjing's family and represented the voice of the border army.

It is precisely because of his identity that many people suddenly feel that there is something wrong with the atmosphere and are suddenly frightened.

Emperor Yun Qin slowly turned his head, looked at this military official from Yipin, and said word by word: "Why?"

"The reckless people have always been scheming, and a sudden peace negotiation may also be a trick to confuse the soldiers.

General Gu has already sacrificed his life for the country, and if the reckless army suddenly attacks again, the front-line campaign will be greatly disadvantaged.

Wu Tianxiang said coldly: "Even if you really want to negotiate peace, there may be Jin details and spies in the envoy, if you spy on the military along the way, ambush and hidden, I don't know how many disasters will be caused in the future, so the minister believes that the peace talks must be at the Qianxia border, so that the reckless envoy is not allowed to enter Yunqin for a step, so as to prevent future troubles" Turn off the AT AD AGT Emperor Yun Qin's brows furrowed slightly, and before he could speak, more than a dozen military officials had already spoken out in support of Wu Tianxiang's views.

Many officials couldn't help but secretly glance at each other, although Wu Tianxiang's words were very reasonable, but the atmosphere was obviously getting more and more strange.

Emperor Yun Qin didn't respond immediately, but just glanced at the other officials in the hall and said lightly: "But there are people who have objections."

"As long as the mission limits its personnel and strengthens supervision, there should be no problem, but if it is placed on the front line of the border gate, the negotiation conditions must be reported back to the decision, and it will take too much time to come back and go back and forth."

"It's probably not necessary to put it on the front line of the border pass."

"Even if you are worried that the other party is just a trick to confuse the soldiers, and you hear that the traitor has died, under the strict defense of our border army, it is impossible for the other party to take any advantage."

From time to time, officials raised objections.

Emperor Yun Qin just listened with his eyes narrowed slightly, as more and more officials spoke out, the side that opposed the peace talks at the border became more and more dominant, compared to the opposing side, the side represented by Wu Tianxiang seemed to be a little insufficient in terms of rank and prestige.

However, when all this seemed to be completely moving in the direction he wanted, Emperor Yunqin's body suddenly trembled slightly, and his eyes couldn't help but fall on Liu Xueqing and the others in the front of the group.

In Pingri, Liu Xueqing and the various spokesmen should be the most intense in their words, but in today's riri, these people are too quiet, so quiet that they all feel weird and dangerous.

Just when his bottomless gaze fell on Liu Xueqing, Liu Xueqing also took a deep breath, and then came out of the ranks, opened his mouth, and said: "The minister thinks that the matter of peace talks must be placed at the border of Qianxia."

This voice was not loud, but as soon as he spoke, all the officials who had debated fiercely before also reacted, and felt the unusual calm of this group of direct ministers and speech officials who had always played a dominant role in the usual deliberations, and for a while, the entire hall was silent.

"The matter of peace talks is not only a matter of military planning, but also of national body and national prestige."

"The loss of the Qianxia border pass, the loss of Nanling Province, this is the shame of my Yunqin" "Such a shameful thing, now that the other party admits defeat, do you still have to welcome the distinguished guests and respectfully welcome the other party into Zhongzhou City" "Until this time, Qianxia Mountain was still in the hands of recklessness."

"If the matter of peace talks is not solemn, it will not be child's play if it is reduced to only a few people in the mission."

"Therefore, in this peace talks, not only can not limit the number of people, but also to limit the specifications of the other side's attendees, it is necessary to make the top military and the most respected figures of the court on the other side bow their heads and admit defeat, sign an agreement, and immediately withdraw from Qianxia Mountain, and then exercise the responsibility agreed in the peace treaty."

"Therefore, this peace talks should not only be talked about in Qianxia Mountain, not only grand, but also well-informed, so that all the people of Yunqin know the process and specific details of the peace talks."

The palace became more and more silent, and the officials who had previously opposed the peace talks at the border became more and more unable to refute them.

"As for the so-called long and time-consuming period of peace talks, no matter how much time it takes, it is impossible to fight a big war, what does it matter?"

Liu Xueqing continued to hang his head and said slowly and clearly: "I am a little anxious, for fear of fighting again and giving up the benefits I deserve, but in the future, I am afraid that the people of Yunqin will think that they are traitors."

As for the return decision, since the other party admits defeat and seeks peace, as long as I, Yun Qin, set the required conditions, and make the trade-off, it is also their business, do we have to make more concessions?"

These words became more and more severe, and the officials who had the most fierce opposition before were all shocked, and their faces were blue.

All the speakers still did not speak out, but at this time it was clear that the situation was clear, and the side that opposed the peace talks at the border had completely lost ground.

"The minister is willing to be an envoy to Qianxia Mountain for peace talks" Liu Xueqing's voice suddenly became heavier, and he said word by word.

Hearing this, many officials took a breath, knowing that since Liu Xueqing moved out of righteousness and took the initiative to provoke the burden of being ashamed of Yun Qin Xue and obtaining benefits that satisfied the people, there was almost no room for maneuver in this matter.

"Very good" Emperor Yun Qin's eyes flashed with some cold color, he looked at Liu Xueqing, and said, "In your opinion, in this peace talks, what price will we Yun Qin have to pay recklessly?"

Liu Xueqing lowered his head and said, "Cedion the land from Qianxia Mountain to Capture Moon City, and pay three million taels of silver." ” There was a bang, and there was an uproar.

Many officials breathed hard, they couldn't believe that Liu Xueqing could offer such conditions.

Three million taels is already a huge amount of money, and the land from Qianxia Mountain to Capture Moon City is equivalent to the entire northern territory of Damang Province, which is equivalent to several provinces Emperor Yun Qin's eyes narrowed, and for a moment, the air in the entire hall seemed to become as cold as the ice cellar in Ni Henian.

Just when the Jinluan Hall in the Imperial City of Zhongzhou fell silent again, the Jinsè Yunqin Phoenix, which Lin Xi called Rarity, was flying towards the east non-stop.

Under its feet, a basket was hung, and in it sat Lin Xi, Chi Xiaoye, and Yun Qin's youngest Saint Master, Nangong Weiyang
