After leaving from the emperor, Qin Ming pretended to cover his ass and went to the Sifang Pavilion overnight.

Jin He and the others were very anxious, they were afraid that the emperor of Chu had reached an agreement with Yan Guo.

After seeing Qin Ming come back, Jin He and the others hurriedly stepped forward: "Brother Qin, how is it?" ”

Qin Ming smiled bitterly: "Brother Jin, I risked my life and Your Majesty analyzed the causes and consequences of this matter, although I angered Your Majesty and was beaten, but fortunately, I did not disgrace my life, and finally persuaded Your Majesty to ......"

Looking at Qin Ming's struggling way of walking, Jin He and the others' eyes were moist.

Jin He stepped forward and hugged Qin Ming, and said movingly: "Brother Qin, great kindness, I, Jin He and the people of Xia Kingdom, I can't repay it." ”

Qin Ming shook his head with a wry smile and said, "Don't say this kind of thing, I have an enmity with Yan and an affair with your Xia country, this is all as it should be." ”

"Brother, when I go back, I will make it clear that I am His Majesty Emperor Xia, and Your Majesty will definitely be very grateful to you, brother." Kim Hyuk was thrilled.

Qin Ming said: "Brother Jin, don't say anything, brother, my butt hurts, go back and rest first." The emperor has already said that tomorrow you will follow me to the court and sign a tribute agreement. ”

"Okay, brother has worked hard, let you suffer, brother feels uncomfortable, you go back and rest quickly." Jin Hyuk hurriedly sent Qin Ming away.

After watching Qin Ming get into the carriage, Jin He turned back to those envoys and said, "Brother Qin is really our benefactor." ”

The crowd nodded their heads in gratitude.

Qin Ming scolded these guys for being fools in the carriage.

The words are divided into two ends, and then look at the eldest princess's mansion.

In the hall, a man in black came to report: "Your Royal Highness Princess, our people are all dead, and it is not clear what happened in the Sifang Pavilion at present, but I know that Qin Ming went to the palace overnight, and it is said that he was scolded by the emperor and beaten with a big board." ”

"Hahaha......"

Hearing this, the Ministry of Rites Shangshu laughed, touched his beard and said:

"It seems that this matter has made Your Majesty angry, Qin Ming has suffered a big loss this time, and it is estimated that there will be no chance in the next negotiations."

The eldest princess also showed a smile of "everything is under control" and said:

"The envoy was assassinated, and the negotiation was difficult, but this time Qin Ming's office was smashed, which is good. Next, it's time for Ben Princess! ”

"Princess, it's inconvenient for you to go out in person, so it's better to have someone go instead of you." The man in black spoke.

The eldest princess nodded, then looked at the Ministry of Rites Shangshu and said, "Lord Zhou, can you take this princess on a trip?" ”

"Willing to help!" Lord Zhou nodded.

……

Not much to say, outside the Sifang Pavilion, Zhou Shangshu said to the museum: "This official wants to see the envoy." ”

The museum hesitated when he heard this, but still let Zhou Shangshu in.

Seeing Jin He, Zhou Shangshu said: "Jin envoy, this official is the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, and I am here to talk to the envoy about something." ”

Kim Hyuk frowned and said, "What's the matter, my lord?" ”

"This official heard that the envoy was assassinated, which is a mistake of his own country, and it is also a mistake of Qin Langzhong, a subordinate of this official. The official knew that the envoys were not feeling well at the moment, so the official personally came to talk to the envoys about the matter of paying tribute. ”

Kim Hyuk wondered in his heart, what is the situation? Haven't you already negotiated with Brother Qin? Why do you want to talk about it?

His first thought was that this adult might feel that Xia Guo's tribute was not enough.

Thinking of this, Jin He's face changed, he couldn't talk about it anymore, it had already been improved three times, and Emperor Chu agreed, still talking?

So Kim Hyuk said: "My lord, this matter, the envoy felt that there was no need to talk about it anymore, it was too late tonight, please go back." ”

These words made Zhou Shangshu feel that the envoy was angry, and he didn't want to talk about paying tribute with Chu State.

So he smiled and said, "Don't worry, this official will talk to you personally, and you will definitely be satisfied." ”

"No, no, no, don't talk about it, this matter should have been told to His Majesty the Emperor of Chu tomorrow morning, no matter what, it can't be talked about anymore."

In Jin He's opinion, Qin Ming was for his good, risking his life to raise the condition of three times the tribute, and persuaded the Chu Emperor not to join forces with the Yan State.

He felt that this Lord Zhou must want to increase the conditions even more, so Jin Hyuk didn't talk about it.

Zhou Shangshu grinded here for a long time, and in the end, Jin He just didn't talk about it.

So he reluctantly left the Sifang Pavilion and returned to the Eldest Princess's Mansion to explain the matter.

The eldest princess smiled: "This is also a good thing, the more the envoys don't want to talk, the more it means that they are angry." There is no room for mitigation in this matter, so Qin Ming, the person in charge of the negotiations, will be fully responsible. ”

"Eldest Princess, this time Qin Ming, I'm afraid it's over. Even if we can't cooperate with Xia Guo, at least we can get Qin Ming down, which is also excellent. Zhou Shangshu said with a smile.

The eldest princess nodded with satisfaction and said, "Yes, so this matter, that's it for now." Tomorrow morning, we will see how the envoy tells Qin Ming to his father. ”

Zhou Shangshu said: "Qin Ming did not protect the envoys effectively, did not facilitate negotiations, and angered the envoys, these charges are enough for him to bear." When the time comes, the ministers will add oil and vinegar, and he will surely die. ”

…………

The next day, early in the morning, Qin Ming went to the Sifang Pavilion, picked up Jin He and other thirty envoys, and went to the Jinluan Palace.

When they arrived at the main hall, all the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty looked at Qin Ming with strange eyes.

When some people looked at Qin Ming, they didn't even hide the ridicule in their eyes.

Among them, the eldest princess and the second princess Zhang Chong are the most obvious.

These two people are both horses, but they are not as good as Qin Ming in terms of civil and military affairs, and they lost face last time, and they have always held a grudge.

And Qin Ming is very likely to be the concubine of the third princess, which also makes these two concubines have the heart of three times.

They are very unconvinced, Qin Ming, who is younger than them, why is he better than them?

At this moment, all the officials knew about the assassination of the envoy, and also knew that Qin Ming was angrily scolded by the emperor and beaten last night.

So everyone knows that Qin Ming is finished today.

But Qin Ming didn't care what they thought, as soon as he arrived at the main hall, he greeted the ministers warmly.

"Hey, Zhou Shangshu, I'm here so early."

Zhou Shangshu snorted, too lazy to take care of it, thinking that you are almost finished, are you still shy?

"Yo, Prime Minister You, are you full of energy?"

The right prime minister twisted his head away, thinking that it's useless for you kid to pat on the back, will this official help you?

"Huh? Big colt, why is his face pale? Are you kidney deficient? ”

Mu Xian's face sank, he had been in poor health, but Qin Ming said that his kidney was weak, which was too much.

The eldest princess's face was also ugly, and this Qin Ming said that her concubine's kidney was weak, which made her face dull.

At the same time, Qin Ming looked at Zhang Chong and said, "Second horse, your muscles are better looking, but ...... Forget it. ”

Zhang Chong was simple-minded and had well-developed limbs, and when he heard this, he was angry and said, "What do you mean by not saying anything?" What happened to the pony? ”

Qin Ming didn't bird him, and continued to greet the other ministers.

At this time, the emperor came, and the hundred officials stood in their positions and shouted long live.

Then the emperor waved his hand to calm everyone down, and then the emperor glanced at the ministers.

At this moment, everyone was thinking, Qin Ming, it's going to be over!
