In the court, Qiu Rong, the prime minister of Huan, was the first to speak, and he put forward two points of view to King Huan.

First, after the end of the war, the allied forces fought for a long time, and the food, grass and ordnance consumed would definitely be demanded from Huan Guo.

Second, although the Allied forces were driven out of foreign enemies, they were after all the armies of other countries, and now that the war is over, they are still stationed in our country.

Regarding his remarks, King Huan first thought about it, and then frowned slightly: "After the war, if the allied lion opens his mouth, what if it is good." ”

Qiu Rong said: "This war is our request for help from other countries, and the original dispatch of the envoy shows that all the cost of the war is paid by Huan State, so the king cannot be perfunctory, but in terms of the amount, we can still negotiate more." ”

"En......" King Huan nodded slowly.

At this time, Guo Kai also stood up and bowed his hand: "In addition, Weichen suggested that General Xiang Ge should not have any conflict with the allied forces in Zhenyang, so as not to cause unnecessary misunderstandings and lead to the failure of the negotiations after the war." ”

"Well, it makes sense, immediately send an order to Xiang Ge and tell him that without the order of the royal court, the soldiers and horses must not move arbitrarily."

When the ghost clan invaded, King Huan was eager to hope that the allies would enter the customs sooner, and now that the ghost clan was exterminated, he naturally wished that the allies would get out of the way.

On the other hand, the three kings were also ready to send an envoy as a representative to Huandu, and in terms of the selection of this matter, it was naturally after some deliberation, and finally determined to be Wang Su, who was good at debate.

The latter received the order, and under the explanation of King Xuan, he did not dare to delay and set off immediately, and Zhenyang was not too far from Huan, and only a few days later, he had arrived at his destination.

Huan Guo's side, naturally, received the news in advance, and was greeted by his prime minister, so that the etiquette was in place, and he first arranged for the post house to stay.

The next morning, the Huan State Dynasty Hall.

"Xuan, the envoy is here~~~~"

With the chanting, Wang Su walked into the main hall unhurriedly, stood in the center, and then bowed down and gave a deep salute: "Foreign envoy Wang Su, I have seen His Royal Highness King Huan." ”

Facing the monarch, his etiquette standards were in place, and King Huan also had a smile on his face, and stretched out his hand slightly and said, "Your envoy is exempt from courtesy." ”

"Your Highness." Wang Su straightened up and did not speak directly, but subconsciously looked around.

At this time, the minister of Huan Guo stood on both sides, and his eyes were naturally all focused on him.

King Huan smiled again and said, "As far as this king knows, Lord Wang is an important minister of Xuanguo, and he came this time, but on behalf of King Xuan?" ”

"No, I really represent the Allies." Wang Su faced King Huan.

"Oh? In this way, Lord Wang's trip should be to discuss the post-war matter? King Huan pointed out directly.

"Your Highness is wise." Wang Su did not shy away from it: "But before that, there is still something to ask below." ”

"Please." King Huan stretched out his hand to signal.

Wang Su said: "Dare to ask Your Highness, after the ghost army occupied Lianzhou, the allied forces had repeatedly asked for it in order to approach Wuxia Pass, hoping that the Huan army could exert military pressure on Urcha from within the territory to achieve the decisive key to the whole battle, but His Highness shirked it several times, I don't know what it means?" ”

"Later, he also signed a peace treaty with the ghost king and retreated to Zhenyang, from this point of view, it has to be doubted whether the Huan army has the heart to fight, and whether His Royal Highness wants to watch the fire from the other side."

He said this in one breath, and in his words, there was a lot of accountability, and after hearing this, King Huan's face had already sunk, and the ministers on the left and right looked at each other.

Immediately afterwards, Guo Kai stood up, pointed at Wang Su, and said unceremoniously: "Since you are a messenger, you should pay attention to your words!" How can you be so rude! Are you accusing me of the king!? ”

"His Royal Highness King Huan, the king of a country, how dare you." Wang Su said unhurriedly: "It's just that the kings have explained, and they need to clarify the attitude of Huan Guo during the war, and as a messenger, I have to ask this question." ”

"You!" He moved out of the Three Kings, and Guo Kai was choked on the spot.

King Huan took a deep breath, this matter is not a joke, if he dares to say that Huan Guo just wants to watch the fire from the other side, then he will definitely poke a big basket.

After thinking about it, he also had to suppress his anger and reluctantly explained: "Alas? The envoy didn't know that in the first battle of Wuxia Pass, the non-Huan army did not cooperate with the allies, but was constrained by the main force of the ghost king, and it was impossible to transfer the battle line at all. ”

"This ......" Wang Su paused, and then said: "After the victory at Wuxia Pass, why did His Highness stand still, and did he want to sit and watch the success or failure of the allies?" ”

"Of course not!" How could King Huan admit: "Regarding the fight against foreign races, didn't our Huan army participate in the war?" 500,000 troops, more than 300,000 killed! It can be said that every inch of land has been sprinkled with the blood of the soldiers! The Messenger ought to know this! ”

He prevaricated perfunctorily, and took this matter as an example, and Huan Jun did sacrifice a lot in the early stage, Wang Su had no choice but to arch his hand and say: "Okay, that's the case, it's too much to say, Your Highness forgive me." ”

"Where, the envoy is serious, fighting against foreign races is the common responsibility of the kings of the heavens, and this king is no exception." King Huan looked generous, and his words were also very good, and he couldn't help but put gold on his face.

Wang Su pursed his lips secretly, and said on his face: "Then again, when the Huan State asked for help from other countries, sent troops into Huan to fight, and helped expel foreign enemies, all the expenses in wartime were borne by your country, whether Your Highness admits this." ”

"Of course, the state of etiquette in the Huan country has always paid attention to faithfulness, and if it is a promise, how can this king go back on his word." King Huan knew in his heart that, just like Qiu Rong reminded, this matter could not be prevaricated, and it was better to show himself a little more generous than empty words and humiliation.

When Wang Su heard this, he saluted again: "Your Highness is really Mingjun, and he knows that it is not easy for the Allied army to enter Huanhuan, and it is a thousand miles of trekking, long-distance battles, and during the war, the Allied forces have exterminated more than 500,000 thieves, horses, boats, grain, grass and ordnance, and countless soldiers have been killed, not to mention, even so, we still insisted on fighting this war and ushered in the final victory. ”

He said so much, it was nothing more than a bargaining chip before raising the asking price, how could King Huan not know, he couldn't help but smile, and said: "Envoy, let's make it clear directly, what do the allies think." ”

Wang Su paused and said straight to the point: "The death of the soldiers, the hard battles, the grain, grass and ordnance, the carriages, horses and boats, the military funds and military expenses, and the escort of the people, to sum up, His Royal Highness should pay 90 million taels of silver." ”

"What did you say!?"

When King Huan heard this, he stood up at once.
