Chapter 224: It's cowardice
Xiao Hui was unmoved, but a faint mocking smile appeared on his face.
Duan Shaolian stayed in place, at a loss, looking at Fan Yu and Xiao Hui, some of the six gods had no master.
It's just that when Fan Yu came to the hall door, he was stopped in front of two Khitan warriors, and he didn't mean to get out of the way at all.
"An Lehou, why bother." Xiao Hui sneered and said, "If you don't agree today, you won't be able to get out of the door of my prime minister's mansion." ”
Fan Yu's face turned dark, the methods of the prime minister of the Liao State were really rough, and he actually wanted to forcibly detain himself and Duan Shaolian, the two Song envoys.
He suddenly turned around and said, "Xiao Xianggong, is this the hospitality of your Liao Kingdom?" ”
Xiao Hui was not angry, but smiled at Fan Yu and Duan Shaolian: "If there is anything wrong, I hope that the two Song envoys will send more letters." ”
I'll write to you a big-headed ghost, Fan Yu complained in his heart, but he also knew that it was useless to scold.
He walked back and sat down in his chair without saying a word.
Duan Shaolian was frightened, and a look of panic appeared on his face.
"Xiao Xianggong, we are the envoys of the Song Dynasty, and the representative is the Great Song Dynasty. When you do this, have you ever thought about the consequences? Duan Shaolian asked.
"The consequences? What can be the consequences. Xiao Hui laughed and said: "My Da Liao and the Song Kingdom have formed an alliance with each other, and they are each other's brothers. For the sake of the two envoys, the Song State will tear up the alliance and fail. Duan Zheng can rest assured, I'm fine. ”
Duan Shaolian regretted in his heart that he shouldn't have come. As the prime minister of Liao, of course you have nothing to do, but we have something.
"If we don't agree to the 100,000 taels of silver, Xiao Xianggong can really kill the two of us." Duan Shaolian hesitated.
Xiao Hui waved his hand and said, "You won't kill if you kill, but before the New Year's Day ceremony, I will invite the two of you to be guests in my prime minister's mansion." ”
Fan Yu nodded at this time, and said, "If Xiao Xianggong has to be so hospitable, we can only avoid it." It's only two days, and it's not long. ”
"Deputy Envoy Fan thinks that as long as you don't agree, you will consume your true appearance?" Xiao Hui shook his head and said, "You think wrong, you have to agree if you don't agree, this matter cannot be refuted." ”
"It seems that Xiao Xianggong seems to have settled us." Fan Yu relaxed at this time, and said with a smile: "It's nothing more than forcing the two of us to give in and write down the paperwork." Or simply use force to make people catch us and others, and press fingerprints on the documents that have already been written. Either way, though, it's going to kill both of us. Xiao Xianggong, if you were to choose, would you be willing to die with infamy, or would you not obey it. ”
Duan Shao's legs were weak in fright, and he hurriedly said, "Why is this, why is this!" Xiao Xianggong doesn't want to be so arrogant, the two countries have a good relationship, and naturally everything is easy to discuss. If you really do this, do you think that even if the two of us agree, Da Song will agree. ”
Fan Yu couldn't help sighing, this Duan Shaolian Duan Zheng, if he was calm and tough at the beginning, where would he attract such intimidation and oppression later. Now he still wants to say such semi-soft and not hard words, doesn't it give the other party hope of luck.
"In black and white, Song Guo can't help but agree." Xiao Hui's face sank and said: "Unless the Song Kingdom wants to reopen the border provocation and make enemies with my Da Liao, no matter what, you have to agree." ”
Xiao Hui's reaction was indeed not what Fan Yu expected.
Fan Yu, who deeply felt Duan Shaolian's bad deeds, sighed at this time and warned Duan Shaolian: "Duan Zhengzhi, you are swaying like this, obviously agreeing to the request of the Liao State. In that case, how about you sign this paperwork? However, I want to tell you that this is your personal matter and has nothing to do with Da Song. I advise you not to go back to the Great Song Dynasty, and when I go back, I will try my best to keep your family from dying. ”
When these words came out, Duan Shaolian was terrified when he heard it. What do you call your own personal affairs? Is this An Lehou going to pit himself?
"How can I say this, An Lehou wants to frame me, I didn't agree to anything." Duan Shaolian hurriedly argued. He was not lightly frightened by Fan Yu's words, the other party pointed directly at his family, which was more terrifying than his own death. It's sweating when you think about it, if you sign the paperwork, I'm afraid that the entire Duan family will be implicated.
A look of shame flashed in Xiao Hui's eyes, for these two Song envoys, he could exert maximum pressure, but he didn't dare to really kill the two.
This is different from Fan Yu's deal with Liu Liufu in Bianliang, that is, Liu Liufu forced the Great Song Dynasty monarchs and ministers to have no room for turn, and there is a unified determination and idea from top to bottom. At this time, Xiao Hui didn't have that condition, and he could only focus on intimidation.
"In that case, then entrust the two Song envoys to spend two days in the Prime Minister's Mansion here." Xiao Hui said with a calm face.
With a wave of his hand, four Khitan warriors came in from outside, coming to the front and back of Fan Yu and Duan Shaolian.
"Please go to the back and rest, if you figure it out, you can come to see me at any time." Xiao Hui said calmly.
Fan Yu didn't say anything more, got up and followed the Khitan warrior to the back, Duan Shaolian didn't dare to talk to the mud anymore, and obediently followed.
The joints of such a big thing, what Fan Yu hates the most is people like Duan Shaolian and the mud. If you don't want to take responsibility without talking about your position, you will definitely be squeezed by the other party to the point where there is no space.
If it is from the beginning, there is a bottom line to keep the principle, which is the way to negotiate.
The two were placed under house arrest in a room in the Prime Minister's Mansion and sat opposite each other.
Fan Yu didn't even look at Duan Shaolian, such people were pedantic and didn't have a principle, which really made him look down on him.
But Duan Shaolian didn't know it, he sighed: "An Lehou, why are you blindly tough with that Xiao Xianggong? I'll discuss with him how we got to this point. All he has to do is ask, and I'll just say yes. Now that you are blindly hard topped, Xiao Xianggong has lost face, so you and I are trapped here, why bother. ”
Hearing Duan Shaolian's words, Fan Yu's head was on fire. After reading books for a few days, this bastard thinks he has a superior IQ and thinks everyone else is a fool. In fact, he himself does not have the slightest ability to practice in society.
It was because of his indecisiveness that Xiao Hui had the idea of gaining an inch. Until now, this Shaolian has not woken up, and he still wants to push the responsibility on his head, which really annoys Fan Yu.
"If Duan Zhengzhi wants to say something to Xiao Xianggong, he can go now." Fan Yu didn't bother to accuse the other party, he said lightly: "I won't go, so as not to disturb your peaceful conversation with Xiao Xiang." If Duan Zheng was able to make this Xiao Xianggong calm, it would also be a credit. ”
When Duan Shaolian shirked his responsibility, he was right. But let him go and talk to Xiao Hui alone, but he didn't dare. He himself knew that if he couldn't stand the intimidation of the other party and signed the paperwork in fright, he was afraid that everything would be over.
"An Lehou, what are these words, you and I are both upright, both are envoys of the Great Song Dynasty, and we should advance and retreat together." Duan Shaolian hurriedly said: "Even if they supervise each other, there shouldn't be a single person who talks about state affairs with outsiders without authorization." ”
Fan Yu secretly rolled his eyes, what this guy said sounded good, but in fact, he didn't take responsibility, he was cowardly.
