In front of Fang Jun, Ji Shiju seemed much more casual.

When Ji Shiju arrived at Chunfan Building the next day, Fang Jun still set up a banquet to entertain him, and Ji Shiju simply washed the dust and dirt on his face, and then let go of eating and drinking.

Fang Jun was quite surprised, although Ji Shiju was ugly in his opinion, but his demeanor was neither humble nor arrogant, but in front of him, it seemed that he had taken off a carapace, and he no longer had any scruples.

"Why does Master Hou look at me like this?" Ji Shiju chewed delicious dishes from Datang, drank Fangfu wine cup by glass, and couldn't help but feel very strange when he saw Fang Jun looking at him with a strange expression.

Fang Jun said: "Is there a kind of exhilaration, from the depths of the soul, for the rest of your life you don't have to be in the company of those insects and rats in the dirty and dark ditches, I feel that the sun is very warm, the sky is so blue, and even the wind blowing over is fragrant?" ”

Ji Shiju pondered for a moment and exclaimed: "He is worthy of being the best talent of the Tang Dynasty, and these words simply speak to the heart of the contemptible...... The contemptible person is a Ezo person, and he has an uncommon enmity with the Japanese people, but he has to be a snake with him, can the Hou Ye know how disgusting and depressed the contemptible people are? Now, with the help of the Hou Ye, the Ezo people are finally able to seize a warm piece of land to survive and reproduce, although the land of their ancestors is still in the hands of the Japanese people, but the Ezo people are already very content. ”

Speaking of this, he put down the dishes and chopsticks, stood up, walked to Fang Jun and knelt down, and threw himself to the ground.

"You are the benefactor of the Ezo people, the Ezo people will carve a monument and build a temple for you, and your children and grandchildren will remember your kindness for generations to come, and from now on, as long as there is a Ezo person alive in the world, you and your children and grandchildren will be regarded as a benefactor, no matter what the request, even if you are broken bones."

This oath is solemn to the extreme.

As long as the Ezo people still remember today's events, even if the words such as broken bones will gradually fade away in a few decades, even after a hundred generations, Fang Jun's descendants will inevitably be treated as guests and respected on the territory of the Ezo people.

Fang Jun stretched out his hand to help him up, and said with a smile: "Giving people roses, there is a lingering fragrance in your hands, although I have never coveted the reward of the Ezo people, but I am also deeply relieved to see that the poor Ezo people can have a stable and warm home." Get up and speak. ”

Although he had never heard the phrase "giving roses to people with lingering fragrance", it did not prevent Ji Shiju from understanding the meaning, he stood up and said with heartfelt respect: "Before coming here, all the Ezo people ask the contemptible people to express their most heartfelt thanks to you, and everyone has reached a unanimous opinion, this mediation will be completely handed over to Hou Ye you to lead, Hou Ye you say what the conditions are, that is what the conditions, even if we want the Ezo people to break through the sea of fire, there is no complaint, in order to express gratitude and trust to you." ”

Look at what people say, what does this matter mean?

It's called intimateness!

Fang Jun is a smooth donkey, you wring it with him, he is even more screwed than you! But just like Ji Shiju, he completely puts himself and the Ezo people in the position of a "benefactor", saying that you can do whatever you want, we will agree to any conditions, even if I send you all the women in the clan to send you a warm message, I will not frown......

is so atmospheric, but it makes Fang Jun a little embarrassed.

In the final analysis, he is not a qualified diplomat, and he can't do everything with interests first, and it is still a shame to lose face......

*****

The next day, the winter sun was shining brightly and the sea breeze was gentle.

The windows on the top floor of Chunfan Building were closed, and the sunlight shone in through the glass windows, and the hall was bright.

In the middle of the hall was a long wooden table, which was made from a large tree cut down in the nearby mountains, but the craftsmen who had no place to show off their skills in the maintenance of warships were itchy and made the table intricate and extraordinary, and even the chairs arranged in a circle were carved with hollow patterns, which looked delicate and gorgeous.

Charcoal stoves were lit in the four corners, the cold wind outside the window was bleak, and the building was as warm as spring.

Fang Jun sat on the main seat at the end of the long table, and there was another desk placed at the back of the table, where Wang Xuance and several officials from the Navy Division were responsible for recording the meeting.

The two sides of the negotiation were seated on the left and right.

On the Japanese side, it was naturally Su Ma Lishi and a few civil officials, while the Ezo people were much simpler, only Ji Shiju with a tall young man with a cold face, who was his younger brother Ji Shijun.

In addition, representatives of Silla, Baekje, and Lim-eup were present as witnesses.

Of course, almost all countries welcomed the imminent opening of treaty ports in the country, which meant that the huge market of the country would be open to merchants from all over the world, and from then on, merchants in the country would only have to abide by the commercial order and not have to worry about being exploited by the officials.

Under the leadership of Datang, a stable, harmonious and prosperous business circle will gradually take shape after encompassing many East Asian, Nanyang and other countries.

Among them, Goguryeo, who was about to start a big war with the Tang Dynasty, was excluded......

This is tantamount to isolating it at the diplomatic level, without the support of any country. Even Baekje, who has always worn the same pants with Goguryeo, is swaying in it, on the one hand, because of Goguryeo's imminent high pressure, and on the other hand, huge economic interests, which are really difficult to choose.

However, as long as they don't have a good relationship with Silla, it will be difficult to board the big ship of Datang......

Ji Shijun stepped forward to give Fang Jun a salute, and his eyes were full of admiration and respect: "The eldest brother has always admired Hou Ye, and he has said countless times in front of the contemptible people that Hou Ye is brilliant and martial, which makes the contemptible people always yearn for it. When we meet today, we know that we are such a heroic young hero! Hou Ye was able to mediate the war between the Ezo people and the Japanese people, and he was actually the benefactor of the Ezo people. ”

This set of rhetoric came out with a strange intonation and inaccurate tone, obviously he didn't speak much Chinese, this time someone must have typed the manuscript and memorized it for a long time......

But even so, Fang Jun blushed a little.

It's not terrible when your own people tout it, but when crooked nuts tout you, it's really scary......

But fortunately, Fang Jun's face is dark, slightly red, and it is not obvious.

Fang Jun said a few polite words, inviting Ji Shijun to go to Datang as a guest when he has nothing to do, or he can follow the sailor fleet to Nanyang to take a walk and open his eyes, and then invite the two brothers to sit down.

However, the Conference was not friendly.

As soon as he came up, Ji Shiju said bluntly: "The Japanese people occupy my homeland and kill my people, and the blood is deep, and it is difficult to write about it." Every Ezo person engraves this hatred in their hearts, and thinks about killing the enemy all the time to take revenge and return to their homeland, never dying! The Tang Dynasty is the kingdom of the Celestial Empire, and it is the state of etiquette, Huating Hou is the hero of loyalty and courage, righteousness and thin clouds, and now Huating Hou for the peace of Honshu Island, come forward to mediate, hoping that the two sides will stop the war, and the Ezo people are willing to obey the will of the Tang Dynasty, and from then on stop the sword soldiers and keep their duties. As for this negotiation, the Ezo people fully comply with the wishes of the Tang Dynasty, and can accept any request unconditionally, just hoping to reach an agreement quickly, and the contemptible people really do not want to sit at the same table with the cruel Japanese people. ”

Su Moli's old face turned red with anger.

It's just that you praise Fang Jun, why do you still piggyback on the widows?

The Japanese people have killed a lot of Ezo people, but are there fewer Ezo people killed by the Japanese people?

Uh, it's a little less......

But you don't kill much because you are weak, and if it were easy, you wouldn't have mercy when your butcher's knife struck the head of the widow.

He sneered: "Your Excellency, as a Ezo person, has been able to commit to the center of the Wa Kingdom for many years, and it is ridiculous that you are a guinea dog-like figure, once you are in power, but you are so arrogant." ”

Ji Shiju was not annoyed, but said indifferently: "I don't talk to the old dog who plotted to usurp the throne and kill the old master. ”

Su Ma was furious: "Shaft, bold! ”

"Bang!"

Fang Jun put the teacup on the table and said in a deep voice: "This official appeared here to mediate the war between the two of you, so that the common people would not be slaughtered and their lives would be ruined. If anyone is not convinced, they can go out at once, prepare for battle, and see whose knife is faster and whose mouth is sharper! ”

Su Ma Li was so angry that his white beard trembled.

You turned a blind eye when Ji Shiju's words were rude just now, and now you say two words and you say cruel words, it's too biased, right?

But even if he was angry in his heart, he didn't dare to say more.

He understood that the Tang people were playing "balance" with one hand, not to get close to the Ezo people and dislike the Japanese people, but just to help the weak and hoe the strong. On the other hand, if the weaker side is the Wa State, the Tang people will definitely support the Wa people against the Ezo people.

In the end, this has nothing to do with emotion, it is really a game of imperial strategy.

However, what he didn't know was that the fight against the persecution of the Japanese State was planned by Fang Jun, and it was a bit far-fetched to say that it was in line with the imperial policy, and it was completely out of personal feelings.
