"But fortunately, all of us are pursuing peace, and everything can be discussed."

In the room, as these words were spoken, Ning Yi's gaze had become serious, and the cold indifference in that gaze was even a little infiltrating. Lin Houxuan was stared at by him and was silent for a moment.

"The rights and wrongs of this battle are still debatable, but they ...... Mr. Ning wants to talk about it, you might as well say it bluntly. Hou Xuan is just a messenger, but he will definitely bring Mr. Ning's words. ”

His words were soft and hard, and they could be regarded as neither humble nor arrogant, and on the other side, Ning Yi showed a smile again, or expressed approval, or seemed to be slightly sarcastic.

"That's right, what Brother Lin said, I understand. Since it is a message, but what Ning said next, please remember it clearly, when you see Your Majesty in the future, don't forget, or it is wrong. The stakes are very high, Ning will make these things clear first, and ask Brother Lin for forgiveness. ”

"Mr. Ning is right, Houxuan must be cautious."

"Okay." Ning Yi stood up with a smile, paced slowly in the room, and only after a moment did he speak: "When Brother Lin entered the city, he had already seen the scene outside, right?" ”

"I wonder what Mr. Ning is referring to?"

"We're also in trouble, it's not easy at all." Ning Yi said, "The northwest is already barren, not a rich land, you fought here, killed people, damaged the land, this time the wheat was harvested and a lot of waste, the total amount can't support so many people." Now the month of July is almost over, and when winter comes, there will be another famine, and people will die. I took a portion of the wheat, and gave them the rest of the ration according to the capitation rate, and they will not survive this year, and some people still have surplus food at home, and some can get some food from the wilderness, or they can get through it—the big ones are gone, they think. The land was originally theirs, and the grain was also theirs, but now that we have recovered Yanzhou, we should divide the grain according to the previous cultivated land, and now we are making trouble outside. If they were to divide it like that, more would starve to death. These difficulties. Brother Li saw it, right? ”

"Mr. Ning is benevolent." Lin Houxuan arched his hand, a little confused in his heart, but also a little gloating, "But please forgive Houxuan for being blunt." Since the Huaxia Army has recovered Yanzhou and distributed grain according to the land deed, it is the right way, and there are few people who speak and there is less trouble. My Western Xia army came over and killed a lot of people. Many land deeds have become ownerless things, appeasing the big clans, and these places can also be put into the pocket of the Huaxia army. Mr. Ning distributes food according to the head, which is really inappropriate, but the benevolence and righteousness of it, Hou Xuan admires. ”

He came as a messenger, so naturally he didn't dare to offend Ning Yi too much. At this time, this is also true. Ning Yi leaned against the desk, noncommittal. Smiled slightly.

"Brother Lin may be very strange in his heart, ordinary people want to negotiate, and their weaknesses must always be hidden, why would I be outspoken. But in fact, Ning thinks differently, this world belongs to everyone. I hope that everyone will be good, and my problems may not become your problems in the future. He paused, then remembered, "Oh." By the way, for the situation in Yanzhou recently, the Zhe family has also been trying to wait and see, to be honest, the Zhe family is cunning, and it is definitely a bad idea to fight, these things, I also have a headache. ”

"It's not easy to break the family." Lin Houxuan nodded in agreement.

"So frankly, I'll have to make up my mind from you." Ning Yi nodded two points with his fingers, his tone became cold again, and he said directly, "Dong Zhiyuan fought a battle, and after Li Qianshun returned to China, the situation was not good, I know ......"

"Ning ......" was still gentle and amiable a moment ago, at this moment, listening to Ning Yi call his emperor's name impolitely, Lin Houxuan wanted to speak, but Ning Yi's eyes were simply emotionless, looking at him as if he was looking at a dead man, with a wave of his hand, the words had continued.

"In your Western Xia, the emperor and the empress are in the first line, and the dispute between Li Liang is not a day or two, and the strength of the few big tribes is not to be underestimated. When the Iron Harrier and the Proton Army were there, it was good to say, Dong Zhiyuan fought twice, the Iron Harrier was gone, the Proton Army was scattered, and it is difficult to say how many died, and we caught more than 200 later. Li Qianshun went back this time, it is the proper meaning of making a fuss, fortunately, he still has some background, within a month, your Western Xia has not changed, and then rely on Xu Xu Tuzhi, and then consolidate the authority of the Li family, this process, whether it can be done in three or five years, I think it is difficult to say. ”

Ning Yi's fingers tapped on the table: "Now on my side, there are two hundred and seventeen members of the original Proton Army, five hundred and three Iron Harriers, they are in Western Xia, large and small, they have family backgrounds, these seven hundred and twenty Western Xia brothers are what you want, as for the other four hundred or so unlucky people with no background, I don't want to use them to talk to you about business." I will throw them into the mountains to dig coals, and even if they are exhausted, they will not trouble you...... Brother Lin, this time I came here mainly for these seven hundred and twenty people, right? ”

Lin Houxuan's face was solemn and he did not speak.

"Seven hundred and twenty people, that's a lot of business. Brother Lin, you are here for Li Qianshun, but to tell you the truth, I have been hesitating, these people, whether I sell them to the Li family, the Liang family, or other people in need. ”

"Mr. Ning." Lin Houxuan said, "Is this threatening me?" His eyes were cold, and he had a righteous and awe-inspiring posture that would never be threatened.

"Absolutely. Don't threaten you, what business do I talk about, you do good deeds when I give porridge? Ning Yi glanced at him, his tone was flat, and then continued to return to the topic, "As I said before, I took Yanzhou, and you didn't kill all the people." Now in the vicinity of here, more than 30,000 people and nearly 40,000 people put it in a figurative way: These are 40,000 mouths that eat people, and if you can't feed them, they will come to eat me! ”

Ning Yi smiled coldly: "Why do you and I give food to the poor and not to the rich?" The icing on the cake is like charcoal in the snow - I give food to the rich, they think it is deserved, to the poor, it is to save his life. Brother Lin, do you think that on the battlefield, the poor can fight hard or the rich can fight hard? If the matter of food shortage in the northwest cannot be solved by the end of this autumn, I will unite with the family and take them across the Hengshan Mountains to Yinchuan to eat you! ”

Lin Houxuan frowned, and Huo Ran stood up: "Mr. Ning, the battle you fought on Dong Zhiyuan is amazing. However, after the war, how many of you still have it, if you think that in this way, my Western Xia will be afraid of you. Then you can try to kill Hengshan! ”

"Whether you are afraid or not, whether you can fight or not is one thing, whether you can take them across Hengshan is another thing, don't say the Huaxia Army. I am in Luliang, and there is a village of more than 20,000 people, and I can pull out 10,000 more people. Ning Yi's expression was also cold, "I'm in business and hope for peace, but if there is no way out, I can only kill one." This road, the fish is dead and the net is broken. But when winter comes, I will definitely go. How do I train the army, just look at the Huaxia Army, these 350,000 people, I promise, the knife is enough. The family must be very willing to fall into the well. ”

There was silence in the room, and a moment passed.

"That's how troublesome the situation is. It's a road, but of course. I have another way to go. Ning Yi spoke calmly, then paused.

"Seven hundred and twenty people, I can give them to you, so that you can use them to calm the situation in the country, and I can also sell them to others, so that others can come and overthrow your platform. Of course. If, as you say, you are not threatened, you do not want these 700 people, and the others take these 700 people, they will not be in trouble with you. Then I'll cut off their heads at once. Let you, the united Western Xia, live a happy life, and then, let's do a big job in winter! As long as enough people die, our food problem can be solved. ”

Lin Houxuan was silent for a long time: "I'm just a messenger, I don't have the right to nod, you ......"

"—I'll pass on your mother's !!"

Suddenly, a loud shout was like thunder, and it exploded in the room with a majestic aura. Lin Houxuan can also be regarded as playing Tai Chi, making a foreshadowing in advance, and speaking carefully and carefully, but when he said this, he had already seen the scholar on the other side with a sharp gaze, and a cold murderous aura came to his face. That Ning Yi picked up something and waved it out in the midst of the binge, and at this moment, Lin Houxuan only felt a chill in his ears, and the heavy copper incense burner flew past the left side of his face, and with a loud bang, it smashed the cabinet in the corner of the wall behind him.

In an instant, pieces of paper, dust flew, and sawdust splashed, Lin Houxuan shrank his head in a daze, he didn't expect that a simple sentence would lead to such consequences. Someone had already rushed in outside the door, but then they heard Ning Yi's words: "Get out!" At this moment, what Lin Houxuan felt was almost a greater sense of majesty and oppression than the Golden Palace's meeting with Li Qianshun.

"Back and forth, hundreds of thousands of people will die, you are here as a child's play. It's a long and crooked, it's just a messenger, and you want to say it in front of me a few times! If Li Qianshun sent you here to really just spread the word, what difference does it make if he sent you or a dog! I'll write a letter and let it go back with it in my mouth! You are a small country in Western Xia, how is it compared to the Wu Dynasty!? The first time I saw Zhou Zhe, I slaughtered him like a dog! Dong Zhiyuan and Li Qianshun run slowly, his head is now kicked by me as a ball! Lord Lin, you are the envoy of the Western Xia Dynasty, and you are responsible for the rise and fall of a country, so Li Qianshun sent you over. If you pretend to be a dead dog in front of me, and ignore the lives and deaths of the people on both sides of you and me, I will immediately have someone chop you up. ”

In the midst of these words, Ning Yi's figure slowly sat down behind the desk. Lin Houxuan's face was as pale as paper, then he took two deep breaths, and slowly arched his hand: "Yes, it was Houxuan who was sloppy, and then he ......" He settled down, but he didn't dare to look at the other party's eyes again, "However, my country's dispatch of the army this time is also a waste of labor and money, and now the food is not abundant." If we want to redeem these seven hundred and twenty people, Mr. Ning will not let us bear the food and drink of everyone in Yanzhou and even the northwest, right? ”

"Since I am willing to call you over, there is naturally something to talk about, specific conditions, piles and piles, I have already prepared one." Ning Yi opened the table and pulled out a thick stack of manuscripts, "If you want to redeem people, according to the rules of your clan, things must be given, that is the first batch, grain, gold and silver, I want everything I want." I let you pass the hurdle in front of you, and you must let me pass this hurdle first. And then there's your benefits......"

Ning Yi kept talking: "The two sides will deliver the goods with one hand and the other hand, and then I will naturally find a way to solve the food problem between our two sides." Why do you want to fight with all the tribes in your party? It's nothing more than asking for all kinds of good things, now that the northwest has nothing to fight, your emperor's foundation is unstable, can you stabilize it by redeeming these more than 700 people? But it's just a drop in the bucket? It doesn't matter, I have a way to go, you cooperate with us to do business, we open up the markets of Tubo, Dali, Jin and even the Wu Dynasty, what do you want? Book? Technology? Silk porcelain? Tea? There are some in the south, which was originally an embargo, and now I will get them for you. ”

"What do you have in Western Xia? Your green salt is of good quality and low price, the Wu Dynasty did not do salt business with you at the beginning, and now I will sell it for you, how much you sell every year, and at what price, you can negotiate. Not enough to eat? There is always enough, buy it with Tubo, Dali, and Jinguo. To be honest, in business, you don't understand, you are bullied every year. What was the Liao State like? forced the Wu Dynasty to pay tribute every year, and when he turned his head, the Wu Dynasty could earn all the money back. ”

"You can't fight now, let's join forces, who do you have a good relationship with in China, give priority to them when you bring back good things, and if they have anything to sell, we will help sell them." As long as you do it, won't you be stable? I can assure you that if you have a good relationship, every household will wear silk and satin, and there will be countless treasures. If you want to make trouble, I let them sleep without a quilt...... These general matters, how to do it, I have written them in it, you can take a look, don't worry about me talking nonsense. ”

“…… Then, you can take it back and give it to Li Qianshun. ”

Ning Yi threw the thing to him, and when Lin Houxuan heard it, his eyes gradually lit up, and he lowered his head to look at the booked manuscript. Ning Yi's voice sounded again: "But first, you also have to show your sincerity. ”

Lin Houxuan raised his head, his eyes were puzzled, and Ning Yi came out from behind the desk: "When you hand over someone, return Gyeongju to me first." ”

Lin Houxuan frowned and was about to speak, but Ning Yi waved his hand and went out of the room.

"There's nothing to talk about here, Gyeongju is chicken ribs now, it's a pity to abandon it if it's tasteless, what are you doing with it. Go back and talk to Li Qianshun, and then it's war or peace, you choose-"

Outside the room, Ning Yi's footsteps were far away.

"—I'll take them all." (To be continued.) )
