Tao Ziyuan is persistent enough, and Li Xiangqing is also very persistent, the two looked at each other stubbornly, and laughed out loud at a glance.

It's just that there is a lot of helplessness, bitterness, and shame in this laughter.

They can almost see their own shadows in each other's bodies, although the intersection of many years is scattered, but the heavens seem to have played a very funny joke on them, arranging their fateful position at such a humiliating time.

"Since you're not leaving, do me a favor. For a while, Li Xiangqing seemed to have made up his mind.

"What are you going to do?" Tao Ziyuan asked.

Li Xiangqing said worriedly, "20,000 taels is too much, the treasury has long been empty in the past few years, and if you rely on tax compensation, it will be an extremely heavy burden on the people, and it is good to be able to reduce 50 million taels." Li Mou exchanged 50 million taels for 50 million taels, which is worth it. ”

Did the once ambitious boy have expected such a dilemma? It was as if no one had expected the gates of the dynasty to be torn apart with such surprise and brutality.

Orthodox two years, spring

The vegetation inside and outside the Yandu City is rejuvenated, and even though there has been a war here not long ago, it still can't stop the arrival of spring.

A blue carriage appeared in the southern city of Yandu City, and the accompanying Tao Ziyuan was dressed as a man, riding a horse and following behind the carriage, his body was clean and tidy, and the carriage decorated with all kinds of rotten vegetables was almost the same fate.

Only this time no one appreciated the young man on the horse, more humiliation and cursing.

"Those who are officials and soldiers eat the emperor's food, and those who show off their might in front of us on weekdays are a grandson in front of others!

"When did the people of our Yandu City suffer this crime......? The world is going down, and the country is ...... Never mind. ”

"I heard that not only the indemnity, but also the land cut, the cities near the sea in the south are handed over to others, and the customs are also handed over to others, is this still our place?"

“......”

In the face of the ups and downs, as well as the tailing of rotten vegetable leaves, Tao Ziyuan did not use occult arts, but only endured the anger of these people, it seemed that in this way, her heart could be calmer.

The carriage drove all the way to the south city gate, and suddenly a gunshot rang out, and the onlookers scattered like birds and beasts, and the remaining middle-aged general in a red military uniform was very conspicuous.

Soon, the general's personal soldiers followed in his footsteps and surrounded Li Xiangqing's carriage.

"What's going on?" The sudden stop of the carriage attracted Li Xiangqing's attention, and Tao Ziyuan drove over and said to the people in the car,

"It's a general I don't know. ”

Li Xiangqing opened the curtain of the carriage from the inside, stood on the carriage and looked indifferently at the chopsticks holding the pistol, and removed the hatred in his eyes.

"Is there something wrong with the general? Why can't we wait until the contract is signed? We are defeated, but don't you have a so-called humanitarianism? What do you mean by stopping me at this moment?"

Tao Ziyuan was translating Li Xiangqing's words, only to see the general in red military uniform raise his pistol and aim it at Li Xiangqing's head, and after shouting, he pulled the trigger, Tao Ziyuan urged the blue feather fan in time, but the bullet still grazed Li Xiangqing's eyes.

"Let's go!" Tao Ziyuan gave an order, and an ice wall stopped behind him, and the soldiers in front of him were also bounced away by the flowing water, making way out of the city.

"Bang!" the ice wall shattered, and gunfire rang out behind them, accompanied by the roars of those men and the sound of chasing horses' hooves.

People kept falling in the gunshots, but Tao Zikite no longer dared to use the power of occultism, and the spears that the guards should have equipped were also put away by Tao Zikite when they came out. So, they fled in all directions like prey, so that they were not embarrassed.

And those people in the shadows are already ready to attack, once they make any more moves, they can have a legitimate reason to attack Tao Ziyuan.

After running all the way, he finally arrived at the steamer on the canal outside Yandu City before those people arrived.

Tao Ziyuan jumped off the horse, hurriedly walked to the front and lifted the curtain of the carriage, Li Xiangqing in the carriage covered the bloody left side of his face with one hand, and the blood flowed around the right eye, "Get on the boat!"

Tao Ziyuan called the guards to carry Li Xiangqing onto the boat,

He opened the way in front, and the soldiers on the ship deliberately blocked it, as if they were greeting in advance, Tao Ziyuan's sword rested on the soldier's neck, and in their language, he said angrily,

"Put down your gun, the person behind me is the negotiation envoy of the dynasty, I don't care what your general explains, don't forget that it is not your general who is in charge here, there are soldiers from other kingdoms!

I don't know if Tao Zikite's momentum is too terrifying, or if they really analyzed the pros and cons, looking at the general who was about to arrive in the distance, the soldiers were a little unwilling, but they could only use a helpless square.

As soon as Tao Ziyuan got on the boat, the generals and major generals of other kingdoms showed their faces, and when they saw Li Xiangqing bleeding on the back of the guard, the crowd didn't know who shouted,

"Medic!"

Immediately afterwards, Tao Ziyuan saw a familiar face, Li Ao.

The high-spirited generals in the negotiation arena had an unusual respect for him, wearing a blue aristocratic military uniform and a string of badges on his chest, which belonged to him.

"Come this way. ”

Li Ao said that the crowd had made a way out of the way, Tao Ziyuan asked the guards to follow the person, and she followed behind, in case these people secretly attacked Li Xiangqing, even if this possibility was very small, but she could not take the slightest risk.

Putting that person in danger was already her great fault.

The military doctor in the district time and space acted very neatly and quickly, and seemed to be always dealing with such wounds, and after a while, the poison had been eliminated, the medicine was applied, and the wound was bandaged.

The forehead on the right side slanted down to wrap Li Xiangqing's left eye, Li Xiangqing held Li Ao's hand who was about to get up, and said lightly, "For the sake of me missing an eye, less." ”

Li Ao looked at Tao Ziqi next to him with a puzzled gaze, who was watching and trying to hold back his tears and translate Li Xiangqing's words.

When did he, a proud man, ever beg someone else, let alone be hurt like this.

Hearing Tao Ziyuan's translation, Li Ao unexpectedly looked at Li Xiangqing who was lying on the bed,

"How much?"

Li Xiangqing said, "Eighty million." ”

After hearing this, Li Ao shook his head without hesitation and said, "It's too much, at most 20 million." ”

Tao Ziyuan looked at Li Xiangqing on the bed, looking at him still working hard,

"Sixty million, what about your humanitarian spirit, most of my guards are killed and wounded, even if you give us some pensions!"
