Regarding the conditions proposed by Murong Le, Long Yaoguo said that the price was too high and needed to be lowered, so he sent an envoy to Xuanyang to mediate.

As for what Long Yao meant, Murong Le did not object, and even nodded very happily, and then said that in order to show Xuanyang's generosity, then it would be better to collect 99.99 million.

This answer really almost made the envoy vomit blood in anger, but after all, it was in other people's territory, so he could only ask for good words, hoping that Murong Le would reduce the price a little more as appropriate, after all, the soldiers had to redeem it with money, and there was money everywhere.

It's just that Murong Le was very angry and condemned the envoy's repeated and repeated 'unreasonable' requests, but in order to show the demeanor of a great country, he said that he would only accept 99.98 million, and it could not be less.

As soon as the envoy heard this, he immediately couldn't hold back his face, it was obvious that he didn't want to talk about it properly, and he knew that it would be useless to talk more, so he said goodbye with a cold face and conveyed Murong Le's original words.

As a result, Long Yao's entire court exploded.

"Humph! It's just too deceitful! ”

As soon as he heard what the envoy said, Taishi Gao Mingyuan's beard flew up, and he almost threw out the elephant wat in his hand, "To show our sincerity, we promised to ransom people with heavy money, which was already gritting our teeth and holding on, but he Murong Le even opened his mouth to ask for a price, why didn't he just go to eat human flesh and drink human blood!" ”

"Master, you are angry."

Zhou Liren smiled, motioned for Gao Mingyuan to stabilize his mood first, and then asked, "Ladies and gentlemen, do you have any good opinions on this matter?" ”

Although Gao Mingyuan is a Taishi, he still has a layer of identity, that is, Long Rui's grandfather, so of course he is anxious if Long Rui can't come back.

"Prime Minister, the lower officials think that now, we can only agree to the conditions of Emperor Xuanyang, and try our best to redeem the emperor and all the generals and officials, not to mention, we still have more than 500,000 troops to pay, if we don't agree, there will be too many people who have lost their relatives at home!"

Hearing this, Zhou Liren couldn't help but raise his eyebrows slightly, but he didn't answer immediately, just looked pensive, and seeing this, the official who had just spoken became a little anxious.

At first glance, this is not wrong at all, there is nothing wrong, and it is very reasonable, but there is one point, the official who spoke was Wu Zhibang, the secretary of the Ministry of War.

In fact, he is the biological brother of the deputy general Wu Zhiguo, so why does he support the conditions of agreeing to Xuanyang, on the one hand, because if he does not agree, it will inevitably arouse public anger, after all, more than 500,000 people have been detained by Xuanyang in Jinmen Pass, which is not a trivial matter.

Another reason, that is, because he doesn't want his own brother to be left behind.

"Although Wu Shangshu is reasonable, the emperor wants 100,000 taels of gold, and the generals, according to the level of their ranks, cost 120,000 and 34,000 silver respectively, and even ordinary soldiers cost one or two taels of silver per person, which adds up to too much money."

Qin He, the waiter of the Ministry of Rites, sighed and shook his head, saying that even if he had a heart for this matter, he was powerless.

The emperor wants to change it back, and the generals also want to change it back, but ordinary soldiers are also people, and they can't ignore it, otherwise they will disappoint the people, so this is already a lot of price, and besides, the whole army of more than 500,000 people, although they are cheaper, but it is also money.

At this moment, a voice came from outside, and immediately, a man in a light blue brocade robe with a unicorn embroidered on his chest kicked open the door and came in.

"Hmph, they actually made it clear that they wanted to play tricks on us Long Yao!"

"King Chen, what do you think?"

Seeing that it was the original fifth prince who came in, and now Chen Wanglong Yixi, Zhou Liren's smile became more and more bright, and things seemed to be getting more and more lively.

"Everyone knows that this is a lot of money for a country, but Emperor Xuanyang still refuses to let go, this is why, this is because he wants to see our jokes!"

Long Yixi's face is like a crown of jade, and his body is slender, although he is two years younger than Long Rui, but the intelligence that flashed in his eyes is much more reliable than Long Rui.

To put it bluntly, this throne should have been sat by Long Yixi.

"If we change, we will inevitably exhaust our national strength, but we may not be able to make up such a large amount, but if we don't change, we will be saddled with ruthless and unrighteous infamy, so no matter how we choose, it is difficult for us to ride a tiger."

Seeing that all the officials nodded in agreement, Long Yixi frowned again and said tentatively, "So, this king has a very rebellious proposal. ”

"His Royal Highness King Chen, if you have any proposal, just say it, as long as it can save my dragon from fire and water, it will be a good strategy!"

As soon as he heard this, Wu Zhibang was a little anxious, he cared about his brother in his heart, but he was embarrassed to say that on his face, so he pulled 'Save Long Yao from fire and water' to pull the tiger skin, and the other officials also nodded in agreement, but after listening to Long Yixi's words, the senior master on the side was slightly stunned.

He had some bad premonitions.

In this regard, Zhou Liren still smiled and did not speak.

"Since they are threatening each other with this, then we just don't do anything and don't want it all!"

Long Yixi took a deep breath, as if he had finally made up his mind, and said his proposal, and as soon as he said this, the entire hall was silent.

Don't want it?

This......

All the officials, you look at me, I look at you, all of them make eye contact, no one dares to speak anymore, of course, Gao Taishi is naturally unhappy, that is his own nephew!

"His Royal Highness King Chen's words are simply ridiculous, if you don't want to, wouldn't I Long Yao have no emperor!"

"Don't be impatient, this king's proposal is actually just a trick, the more we show our eagerness to exchange, the more Xuanyang will bite, so we might as well do the opposite, and directly say that we don't want everyone, in this way, Xuanyang will be bored in the end, and he won't get anything, and this matter will naturally be over."

Seeing that Master Gao almost ate himself, Long Yixi couldn't help but laugh secretly, but on the surface, he still bowed respectfully to him and explained carefully.

"It seems to work!"

Among the hundreds of officials, I don't know who said this, and immediately, more and more officials began to echo it, and soon, everyone nodded their heads and affirmed this proposal.

However, this is obviously an even more unreliable approach, and Gao Taishi naturally disagrees, but now, no one wants to listen to him.

For the hundred officials, as long as Long Yao does not fall, they still have a place to settle down, in this way, it is enough, as for the emperor's problem, it is not their turn to do it anyway.

Seeing this, Zhou Liren's expression seemed to be smiling, and it was obvious that he was still very satisfied with the current situation.
