Yuxi received the agreement sent back by Han Jianming, and immediately summoned Tan Tuo, Liu Biyuan, and Cao Boting to come over to negotiate.

Tan Tuo finished reading the agreement and said, "Princess, the military power continues to be controlled by Qiu Ye, and there will be endless troubles in the future." "Only when you have military power can you have the real right to speak. Similarly, without military power, it will lose control of Fujian at any time.

Yuxi said: "It is unrealistic to want Qiu Ye to hand over military power, unless it is to start a war to defeat Fujian. "Military power is fundamental, forcing Qiu Ye to hand over military power is tantamount to forcing Qiu Ye to go to war. If he went to war, it would be contrary to his original intention.

Tan Tuo said: "In this case, there is a hidden danger left. "With military power, Qiu Ye has the capital to rebel.

Yuxi said, "I know your worries. But as long as our side is stable and there is no chaos, if Qiu Ye dares to make it anyway, let the prince send troops to clean him up. "When the time comes, Guangdong and Guiyun will be subdued, and it will be easy to clean up Qiuye.

Tan Tuo was silent when he heard this.

Liu Biyuan said: "Princess, the two political envoys are all Qiu Ye's people, even if the governor is appointed by us, it is not conducive to carrying out the work. The princess, the two political envoys, at least one of them must be one of our people. ”

Qiu Ye's condition was that the governor could be appointed by the northwest, and the political envoys on the left and right would not move, and he had to be his people.

Cao Boting said: "Not only must one of the two political envoys be one of our people, but also the judges must be appointed by us, and the prefects and county orders of the prefectures and counties must also be appointed by us. ”

Yuxi smiled and said, "It's not realistic for us to appoint all of them, but at least two-thirds of the officials must be appointed by us." "Since it is a negotiation, there must be a certain amount of leeway, and if you don't back down at all, then you can't negotiate.

The matter was over, and it was already dark. Yuxi handed the letter to Xu Wu, and then went back to the backyard.

Brother You'er was doing his homework in the house when he heard Yuxi's footsteps and walked out of the house. Seeing Yuxi, Brother You complained: "Mother, you always ask us to have some food, which is good for your health, but you can't do it yourself." "When his mother was busy, she forgot to eat, and she didn't care about her body too much.

Yuxi smiled and took Brother You'er's hand and said, "I just discussed things with Lord Tan and them, so you can't leave them to come back for dinner in the middle of the matter, right?"

Brother You was very unhappy: "Mother, just leave those things to them." ”

Although it was very childish, Yuxi knew that Brother You felt sorry for herself, and her heart was warm: "Now that there is a war ahead, my mother must be busy, just wait for the battle." ”

Brother You muttered, "I don't know when Dad will come back?" I think that when my father was at home, my mother could tell them stories at night. But as soon as my father left, his mother was so busy that she didn't have time to eat.

Yuxi smiled: "When Jiangnan's affairs are finished, I'll come back." "When Fujian's is solved, the eldest brother is appointed as the governor of Jiangnan, and Yunqing will be able to return to Ho City.

After saying this, Yuxi looked down at Brother You and said, "Do you miss your father?"

Brother You turned his face away and said, "I don't want to!" "Dad is not here, I don't know how comfortable I am!" Dad is at home, and he trembles every day, and he is beaten for doing something wrong. In those days, not to mention how hard it was.

Knowing a son is like a mother, how can Yuxi not know that Brother You'er is duplicitous. Don't look at Brother You'er's indifferent look on his face, in fact, his admiration and love for Yunqing in his heart is no less than that of Brother Rui.

The meal was served quickly, and Yuxi patted Brother You'er on the shoulder and said, "Go and write your homework, and go to bed early after writing." "Because the triplets have to get up early in the morning to practice martial arts, they not only have to complete the homework assigned by their husband in the evening, but also have to practice calligraphy and review their homework. So the task at night was not easy at all.

When Brother You left, Mama Quan said with a smile: "Everyone says that her daughter is intimate, and the fourth young master is no worse than her daughter!"

Yuxi sat down and said, "It's good when you don't get into trouble. "When he was in trouble, Yuxi couldn't wait to let him go back to the furnace and reinvent himself.

Mama Quan smiled: "Boys are always naughty. "It's too honest, and it's time to worry.

After washing and wiping his face, Yuxi served the table for dinner. Now that the weather is hot, Yuxi's diet is mainly light.

After finishing the meal, Yuxi said to Mama Quan: "Mama, you can go to the garden with me for a walk!"

Mama Quan glanced up at Yuxi, then nodded and said, "Okay." "I deliberately named her to follow, I'm afraid something is wrong.

Ok-hee often goes for a walk in the garden at night, so she lights a lantern on the path she usually walks.

Mama Quan walked halfway and asked, "Princess, it's okay for you to tell me anything." Is there something wrong with Zhengyu?" she has lived for this year, and nothing has happened.

Yuxi hummed and said: "Quan Zhengyu's father-in-law was implicated in a life lawsuit, and Quan Zhengyu found a scapegoat in order to help his father-in-law get rid of his crimes. ”

Mama Quan's face changed, and she shook her head and said, "Impossible, how could Zhengyu do something that knows the law and violates the law for his father-in-law?"

Yuxi said: "Master Xu has Quan Zhengyu in his hands to take bribes, and he has to help if he doesn't want to." "It's also clear that Yuxi will tell Grandma Quan about this.

Mama Quan sighed and said, "Princess, what kind of punishment will he receive?" She had no face to plead for this, and she knew that even if she pleaded, it would be useless. Quan Zhengyu violated the law, and he must be convicted according to law.

Yuxi said: "Dismissal, dismissal, confiscation of family property, never hired." For the sake of Mama's face, I won't be exiled, and I'll release my hometown!" However, Quan Zhengyu was brought up by Quan Mama, and if he was exiled to the West Sea, Quan Mama would definitely be sad in her heart.

When Mama Quan heard Yuxi's words, she said: "Princess, the country has national laws, and the family has family rules, since he has violated the national law, he should be dealt with according to the law, and I can't ruin the princess's reputation because of me." ”

Yuxi shook his head and said, "It's okay. "The punishment for Quan Zhengyu is not light, and outsiders know that they can't say anything to cover up.

Mama Quan said a little sadly: "I cultivated him so hard, just hoping that he could revitalize the whole family, but I didn't expect it...... cough, forget it, maybe the whole family is the life of the mud legs!" she wanted the whole family to change the court, but there was no one in the family to fight, and she couldn't do anything about it.

Yuxi said with a smile: "Mama doesn't have to think so much, everything is fine." In fact, Yuxi thinks that life in the countryside is simple, and there is nothing bad about it.

Quan Mama said, "Princess, I want to give him a ride when the time comes." "In the end, it is a child raised by yourself, and you can't let it go after all.

Yuxi naturally won't refuse: "If Mama really wants the whole family to change their homes, buy them some properties, and make it clear that the income from these industries is the cost of education for future generations." I think there will always be a few children in the family who can study. "Taking shortcuts is the most unacceptable, so it is easiest to lose your normal mind. Jeon Jeong-yu is the best example of this. Quan Zhengyu was not dissatisfied when he started to be the main bookkeeper, because he thought he would be promoted soon. But I didn't expect that after a few years, I didn't get promoted, and my mentality slowly changed. In officialdom, if you can't keep your heart, it's easy to go astray.

Mama Quan nodded and said, "I'll think about it." After speaking, Mama Quan said apologetically: "You are so busy every day, and you have to work hard for me." ”

Yuxi shook his head and said, "Mama, in fact, I think this is a good thing. With Quan Zhengyu's temperament, the higher he climbs, the heavier he falls, at least now he has all his tails. "If Quan Zhengyu committed something too big, even if she has Quan Mama's face, she will not show mercy.

Mama Quan nodded and said, "That's what you said." "It's better to be sent back to your country of origin now than to be beheaded in the future.

Halfway through, Yuxi smiled and said, "Go back!" It's been a quarter of an hour since I left, and it's almost over.

Back in the courtyard, Yuxi didn't sleep immediately, but went to the study to review the folds.

The next day, when Xu Wu saw Yuxi, he told her something: "Princess, the falcon has sent a message that the treasure is on its way to the capital. ”

When Yuxi heard this, he raised his head and asked Xu Wu: "What's the matter?"

Xu Wu really had this idea: "Even if you can't grab it, you can't be cheap Yan Wushuang." "This money was originally theirs, but now it is in Yan Wushuang's hands, and it is unwilling to think about it!

Yuxi said: "Yan Wushuang wishes that we would send someone to hijack this batch of property! "You don't have to think about it, Yuxi also knows that in addition to the elite escort, Yan Wushuang must have arranged a lot of people in secret. Once the people are really sent to go, these people will definitely go and never return.

Xu Wu is not as calm as Yuxi, as long as he thinks of tens of millions of gold and silver, he can't calm down: "Then you can't do nothing, right?"

Yuxi said, "Let the Falcon spread the news, we can't do anything else." ”

Seeing that Xu Wu still wanted to speak, Yuxi waved his hand and said, "There is no need to say anything about this, I can't let my subordinates go to death in vain." "Fighting with Yan Wushuang will definitely kill people, but these people must also die worthily.

Xu Wu was a little sorry and said, "Yes." ”

Shandong and Hebei are under Yan Wushuang's governance, and there are no bandits and robbers anymore. And Yuxi didn't send anyone to hijack it, so this batch of treasures was safe and sound all the way.

Meng Nian said: "Lord Wang, this batch of treasures will arrive in the afternoon." "No matter what, it's good that the treasure arrives in the capital safely.

Yan Wushuang said: "I didn't send Gao Dongnan if I knew it, and let the local people arrange someone to send it, it's a pity." "Just because he arranged for elite soldiers, the falcons didn't show up. If the falcon had appeared this time, he would have been able to catch it.

When Meng Nian heard this, he said, "Lord Wang, this treasure is more important than falcons. "With this treasure, they can do a lot.

Yan Wushuang said: "This is our territory, even if they rob this batch of treasures, they can't transport it." ”

Meng Nian didn't want to think about it and said: "They can't be transported, but they can hide or destroy it." "Gold and silver cannot be melted, but they can be thrown into the mountains and forests or poured into the rivers.

Yan Wushuang was not angry, it was also when this batch of treasures arrived in the capital that he would say this. Yan Wushuang said: "If the falcon doesn't do it, it should be Han Yuxi's meaning." ”

Meng Nian agreed: "Speaking of which, Han Yuxi is really stable, she can not be tempted by such a large number of treasures." "Not to mention other people, even himself, he may not be able to withstand such a big temptation.

Yan Wushuang said: "I didn't expect it either. "Yuxi's behavior this time was really beyond Yan Wushuang's expectations.

Meng Nian changed the topic: "Lord Wang, the arrival of hundreds of large camphor wooden boxes in the capital will definitely attract onlookers from the people. To prevent riots, let them enter Beijing at night!"

Yan Wushuang nodded.

It was also on this day that Han Jianming finally received Yuxi's reply. After reading Yuxi's reply, Han Jianming was not surprised at all. However, when he saw Qiu Ye, he still showed a bitter face.

As soon as Qiu Ye saw his expression, he knew that things were not going well. Qiu Ye asked, "What did Princess Pingxi say?"

Han Jianming said the conditions proposed by Yuxi, and after speaking, he said: "That's what the princess said. ”

Qiu Ye sighed and said, "I have promised that the governor will be appointed by you, and now I still want a shortage of political envoys, is it too much?" If you agree to Han Yuxi's conditions, you will lose the main control.

Han Jianming said: "Cousin, when I came, the princess's meaning was very clear, and the regime must be handed over. But now, the princess has made a concession. ”

Qiu Ye said with an unkind face: "This matter is not negotiable. "Qiu Ye promised that the governor would be appointed by Yuxi, just because he wanted the two political envoys to put the governor in the air. Han Yuxi's current conditions have disrupted his plans.

Han Jianming shook his head and said: "The princess said in the letter that this is her bottom line, and she can't let it anymore." ”

Negotiations have reached an impasse.

That night, Qiu Ye was discussing this matter with his staff. The old lady Xiao's personal maid hurriedly ran over and said, "Big man, it's not good, the old lady has fainted." ”

Qiu Ye didn't care about anything, and immediately went to the old lady's yard. After the doctor's rescue, the old lady woke up in the middle of the night.

The next day, Qiu Ye looked for Han Jianming with bloodshot eyes and said, "I can agree to Princess Pingxi's conditions, but I have one request." ”

Han Jianming said: "You say." As long as it's within reason, he can say yes. If it was unreasonable, he would naturally refuse.

Qiu Ye said: "I am going to send troops to attack Guangdong at the end of September, and the king of Pingxi must send me 200,000 soldiers and horses. ”

Han Jianming didn't want to shake his head and said, "Cousin, if you say that the prince will send troops to attack Fujian with you, then there is a discussion." can send 200,000 soldiers and horses to you, and it is impossible for the prince and the princess to agree. "Now that they have the upper hand, how can they still agree to such an unreasonable request from Qiu Ye.

Qiu Ye struggled in his heart for a long time, and finally gritted his teeth and said, "Okay, as long as they promise to send troops to attack Guangdong with me in September, I will agree to their conditions." ”

Han Jianming didn't know what was going on, but it was obvious that the current situation was in her favor: "Cheng, I'll write a letter now." ”
