I couldn't help it anymore when I was poked in the most painful place, so I directly pulled out the soft sword I carried with me and stabbed him.

Gu Yuancheng saw that I was going to fight with him for another person, and he was also angry in his heart, and he turned the folding fan in his hand to fight with me.

For a while, there was chaos and chaos, and all the documents on the table were torn to pieces and scattered all over the ground.

The officials of the two countries were originally waiting at the bottom of the Yutang Terrace, but if they moved, even if they wanted to ignore it, they couldn't ignore it.

"We ...... Would you like to go up and have a look? Someone whispered.

But no one dared to respond.

Who is this man? Who would dare to rush forward without an order from the prime ministers of the two countries? Isn't that a source of guilt?

"Your internal injuries are not healed, it is impossible for me to be my opponent!" Gu Yuancheng's eyes were cold, and the internal force instilled a paper fan, and slammed into my right hand.

Because of my internal injuries, my movements paused slightly, but this moment, Gu Yuancheng grabbed the loophole and directly hit the soft sword in my hand to the ground.

I clutched my right hand in pain, frowning.

"Shen Qingzhi." Gu Yuancheng shook the folding fan in his hand and slowly walked in front of me step by step.

I looked up, and cold sweat rolled down my forehead in an instant.

"What qualifications do you have to fight me now?" He bent down slightly and looked at me mockingly, "You would be willing to make yourself lose even the ability to hold a sword for the sake of others, don't you think you feel pitiful like this?" ”

I bit my lower lip and looked at him coldly.

"Do you remember what happened on Yuju Mountain?" He narrowed his eyes, "I said, don't be embarrassed to appear in front of me, but you challenge my bottom line every time." ”

"Huh." I suddenly sneered, "If you say that, I'm going to misunderstand how much you care about me." ”

The cold air suddenly surged out from all around him, and Gu Yuancheng was really angry this time.

He grabbed my injured wrist, and his face turned pale, "You said that I didn't care about your life and let His Majesty send someone to hunt you down, but how could you ever care about your own life?" ”

"Why did Your Majesty kill you? If it weren't for the fact that you had to find trouble for Cen Xi in the Qi Kingdom, if it wasn't for you and Mei Yan getting too close, if it weren't for the fact that you had to come to the Qi Kingdom for your Qin Kingdom, if it weren't for you, if it weren't for you......"

"Didn't I like you?" I gritted my teeth and looked at him, and my eyes were somehow slightly reddened, "If I hadn't touched this piece of his scale, with his heart, even if he couldn't tolerate me, he wouldn't have done it in such a hurry, wouldn't he?" ”

Gu Yuancheng was stunned for a moment, he let go of my hand like lightning, and a little surprise suddenly hit his eyes.

It was the first time, really the first time he heard me say to him, I liked him.

"Qingzhi ......" his eyes softened, and even his voice became gentle, he wanted to take my hand, but he didn't dare to say, "Let's reconcile, okay?" Let's go now, far away from here, let's go to the north, I heard that there is a desert there, and there is a scenery different from the south of the Yangtze River......"

Suddenly my tears fell.

No way.

He and I both knew it.

When Qingping passed away from my eyes in order to save me, and I couldn't do anything; When Princess Huizhong chose to isolate herself from the world for the sake of the reputation of the royal family of Qin, the relationship between me and him completely became a sea and mountains that could not be crossed.

"No, Qingzhi......" Gu Yuancheng stepped forward and hugged me tightly, "No, Qingzhi, we can continue between us, everything has not yet reached the end, Qingzhi, can you believe me once?" Just once, we left everything behind......"

I closed my eyes and let the tears slip into my mouth.

It's bitter.

It turns out that this is the taste of love.

"Let's all calm down for a while." I whispered, "Yuan Cheng." ”

Gu Yuancheng's body stiffened, and it took a long time before he slowly let go of me.

"Okay, I'll give you time, and I'll give myself time." Lowering his eyes slightly, he agreed, and then looked for a peace talk book on the ground.

I staggered back and pursed my lips as he rummaged on the floor, my chest tight.

The contradiction between the state of Qin and the state of Qi is unavoidable, and it has become a contradiction between me and him, in fact, we all know that only when one country engulfs the other, can the struggle between us really stop.

"The rest, it doesn't matter, just this one, and it happens to be nothing harmful." Gu Yuancheng finally found the peace talk.

He put the book on the table, collected his sleeves himself, and sharpened the ink.

I quickly glanced at the contents of the peace talk, straightened my appearance a little, and sat down neatly.

"Our Qi country doesn't want much, since the south of the Changqing River to Baililin, your Qin country refuses to give it, then change it to Dongyue Slope, on the condition that you immediately withdraw your troops from the land of my Qi country, and within ten days, there can be no soldiers from your Qin country on every inch of land in my Daqi, and accompany our army to lose 150,000 silver."

Gu Yuancheng put the polished ink in front of me, and then handed me a brush.

I cleared my throat a little and set aside the pen he had given me.

"The soldiers of Yuzhou City, I can withdraw, and Dongyuepo can also give it to you, but the 150,000 taels of silver are inevitably a little out of line with the laws of the two countries." Follow-up

Gu Yuancheng glanced at me and sat down upright.

"And how much do you think is appropriate?"

"Fifty thousand taels is regarded as a war with Budaguo, and a compensatory treatment for the soldiers of Qi State."

"It's only a hundred thousand taels, there shouldn't be a shortage of Qinguo, right?"

"What is not lacking is the treasury, but the people are very lacking."

Gu Yuancheng's eyes sank, and he suddenly smiled, "If you bargain with me like this, aren't you afraid that you won't be able to get off this jade hall platform again?" ”

"What's behind you?" I squinted for a moment.

"A few days ago, your old classmates came to visit my Majesty Daqi." Gu Yuancheng looked at me.

"Ji Gui? He's really going to stir up the muddy waters. "I'm depressed.

"You've figured it out, haven't you? wants to use him to appease the old ministers and people of the country. Gu Yuancheng seemed to be asking me, and seemed to be making a conclusion for me.

I didn't say anything.

"It's just a pity that you want to spare his life, but he is bent on you dying." Gu Yuancheng sighed and shook his head, "He promised my emperor that as long as he is given a chance today, he is willing to come forward to return to the Qi State on behalf of those old ministers who are not up to the age." ”

"So, all the men and horses he ambushed are outside the Yutang Terrace?" I raised an eyebrow.

Gu Yuancheng didn't answer me, but just pushed the peace talk book in front of me.

I was silent for a while, then nodded and said, "One hundred thousand taels, if you agree, I will stamp the seal of the Qin State now." ”

"Okay, 100,000 taels is 100,000 taels, but I have one more condition."

"Say."

The officials of the two countries waited under the stage of the Yutang for two hours before they saw their prime ministers walking down leisurely from above, and judging by their expressions, the negotiations should be going smoothly.

"Lord Shen Xiang, have you negotiated with Gu Xiang of Qi Kingdom?" As soon as I got below, a crowd of officials swarmed me.

I nodded slightly, raised my hand and said goodbye to them, "The prime minister will return to the capital immediately to explain the situation to the emperor, my lords, don't say goodbye." ”

"Prime Minister, are you in such a hurry? It's almost time now, why don't you stay overnight today and wait for tomorrow morning before you hit the road? "An official stepped forward and proposed.

"Yes, adults haven't even used lunch since the morning, no matter what, the food still has to be eaten, and you can't go on the road on an empty stomach, right? If this is spread out, wouldn't my colleagues in Beijing have to accuse the lower officials and others of neglecting the adults? Other officials chimed in.

Although it was difficult to be warm, I did have other things to do, so I could only stubbornly refuse to leave.

The officials obviously felt that it was a pity, but thinking about the position of prime minister, it must also be entangled in official duties, and this peace talk was a major event for the whole country, so they let me go with understanding.

The carriage in which I was riding quickly left Yutangtai.

"Woohoo!"

"Appeal ——!"

"Who?"

"Bang!"

As soon as he left Yutangtai less than six miles, countless arrows rained down from the four directions of southeast, south, and northwest, shooting the carriage into a hornet's nest.

Escorted by Hongqi, I quickly retreated behind a large tree.

"Ji Gui, I know it's you, come out quickly, don't hide your head and tail." I shouted in the direction where the arrow feathers were most dense.

"You guessed it was me." Ji Gui walked out of the forest not far away, "Since it's an old friend meeting, shouldn't you also stand up frankly?" ”

I was not afraid, and with a flick of my sleeves I walked out from behind the tree.

"Guts!" Ji Gui unabashedly clapped his hands and praised.

"Ji Gui," I looked at him expressionlessly, "I advise you to surrender now, go back to the capital with me, and I will show the emperor so that you can continue to be your little prince." ”

"It's all been imprisoned, what are you talking about if the prince is not the prince? Shen Qingzhi, do you think I'm stupid? Ji Gui sneered disdainfully.

"You're stupid." I stared at him, "Smart people know how to judge the situation, only stupid people will not be able to see the reality clearly, yesterday's trapped beast fight." ”

When Ji Gui heard what I said, he actually laughed.

"Shen Qingzhi, Shen Qingzhi, now your life is in my hands, what's the matter, shouldn't you 'judge the situation' and bow your head to me and beg for mercy?"

I glanced at him lightly, and finally persuaded him, "Ji Gui, I read the love of my classmates back then, so I left you until now, don't forget, the country of Buda has been destroyed, even if you step on my bones today, it is impossible for the country to return to the way it used to be, you have been defeated." ”

Ji Gui's face suddenly turned pale, his body trembled a little, his hands were clenched tightly, and his eyes were staring at me.

After a long while, he finally spoke, "If it weren't for my self-righteous and stupid brothers, as well as my ignorant father, how could I have lost to you and Gu Yuancheng?" Hmph, the hatred of destroying the family and destroying the country is not shared! ”
