"Big brother, what kind of medicine do you say is sold in this gourd surnamed Jia?" Chen Feng was a little unpredictable.

"Don't care about what medicine is sold in the pangolin gourd, going to Yongcheng this time is very important, and life and death are unpredictable, it is really rare for someone surnamed Jia to take the initiative to ask for help." Chen Shan said: "You have been to Yongcheng, you are more familiar, when the time comes, be smart, and when you see that things are not good, you will quickly smear oil on the soles of your feet, and remember, 'The green mountains left behind, we are not afraid of no firewood'." ”

"Big brother, don't worry!" Chen Feng said solemnly: "Once something happens, what about the surname Jia?" To save or not to save! ”

"As long as you can make it back alive, as for the pangolin, it's up to his luck." Chen Shan said coldly: "If he dies, it just so happens that we annex Jiajiazhai, and then our strength will be doubled, and the entire Green Forest Alliance will not be our brother's." ”

"I see, big brother; You can rest assured! ”

Chen Shan also showed his dirty face at this time, in fact, from the beginning of the formation of the Green Forest Alliance, Chen Shan hid this thought; If this negotiation goes well, Jia Shen and Chen Feng can come back safely, naturally hello, hello, everyone, if Jia Shen can't come back, Chen Shan, as the leader of the alliance, will take over Jiajiazhai and no one can say anything.

Since learning the news of the alliance of the bandits in the three states, Guo Qi ordered the Ya Junwei to prepare for battle, and sent spies to Erlong Mountain and other places to inquire about the news, ready to send troops at any time to eliminate the Green Forest Alliance in one fell swoop.

"Lord, Lord Song is asking to see you outside the camp." Li Wu walked up to Guo Qi and said.

"Bring him here!" After Guo Qi finished speaking, he returned to the Chinese army's tent.

After seeing Song Yiming enter the big tent, Guo Qi asked, "Yiming, didn't this king give you a token?" Why are you still waiting outside the camp. ”

"Isn't this a hurry and forgot to bring it! After talking bitterly outside the camp for a long time, the guards were stunned and did not let the lowly officials come in, so the lowly officials had to let them report it. Song Yiming said with a bitter face.

"It seems that the king's military orders are being carried out well, and he is loyal enough to do his duty." Guo Qi said with a smile.

"Don't be complacent, my lord; You say that you are a dignified prince, who does not live in the palace and lives in the barracks every day; If there is anything urgent about this, the lowly officials can't see you if they want to, so I beg you to go back to the palace to live! ”

"Lord, Lord Song is reasonable." Li Wu also persuaded: "I know that the lord is willing to share weal and woe with his brothers, but after all, the lord is the prince and the lord of Yongzhou; There are a lot of official documents to deal with every day, if you train during the day and review documents at night, your body should be exhausted, and if Yongzhou does not have you, it will collapse that day. ”

"I really feel sorry for me!" Guo Qi said with a smile.

"What the lowly man said is also the truth!"

"Lord, if you refuse to go back, then as long as you unite the civil and military at all levels to ask for your life, you will be carried back to the Yongzhou Palace." Song Yiming insisted.

"Okay, King Yiming is really afraid of you; It's not okay for this king to go back and stay for two days! Anyway, this military camp is not far from the palace. Guo Qi said helplessly: "Is there something urgent to run over at this time?" ”

"The lord didn't remind him, and he almost forgot about it." Song Yiming said: "The Lord Green Forest Alliance sent someone here, saying that he wants to negotiate with us!" ”

"What's the Green Forest Alliance?"

"The lord forgot, it's an alliance formed by bandits in Yong, Long, and Jing! They call it the 'Green Forest Alliance'. ”

"Oh! It turned out to be them! You just said they sent people, but what about the people? ”

"The lowly has already arranged them at the post station, see if you want to see them."

"Seet the." Guo Qi said angrily: "Yiming, you go back and tell them that the king's army is ready, either go down the mountain and return to obedience, or the king immediately leads his troops into the mountains to suppress the bandits; A group of bandits and rabble are also worthy to negotiate with this king. ”

"The lord is angry." Song Yiming advised: "I think that the prince is better able to gradually them, and after the establishment of the Green Forest League, he immediately sent people to Yongcheng to negotiate, which shows his sincerity; The humble officials thought that they formed an alliance not to confront the lord, but to be a little worried about the policy of Yongzhou, but the lord's guild settled accounts with them after the autumn, as long as the lord could dispel their concerns, they would naturally go down the mountain and submit to them; Wouldn't it be better to spend a single soldier in this way than to make a big move? ”

"Okay!" Guo Qi thought for a while and said, "For your sake, this king will meet them." ”

"The lord is wise."

"Fifth son, prepare a horse for this king to return to the palace."

Yongcheng Palace, in the conference hall.

Guo Qi met Jia Shen and Chen Feng sent by the Green Forest League here.

When the two saw Guo Qi sitting on the throne, they immediately knelt down and saluted: "The grass people greet King Yong, the prince is a thousand years old, a thousand years old, a thousand years old." ”

"Get up! You two are members of the Green Forest Alliance! Let's talk about it! What is the matter with coming to Yongcheng? Guo Qi went straight to the point.

"Lord Wang, the grass people are Jia Shen, the deputy leader of the Green Forest Alliance, and this is Chen Feng, the younger brother of the alliance leader Chen Shan." Jia Shen introduced with some embarrassment; "The grass people came to ask the prince for his life after being fatally killed by the alliance lord this time, and asked the prince to allow the people of the villages belonging to my Green Forest Alliance to stay in the mountains, and we are willing to pay taxes to the prince on time."

"Pay your taxes on time." Guo Qile said: "Do you pay? If this king is not wrong, this year's grain harvest will be poor, and the days in the mountains will not be easy! If we can't get food, many people will starve to death this winter! ”

Jia Shen and Chen Feng were shocked, the lack of food in the mountains was not a secret among the villages, but the news in the mountains was blocked, and people outside the mountains did not know the situation in the mountains; And Guo Qi now accurately stated their predicament, which really calmed the hearts of the two, and at the same time, the two of them had the same conjecture in their hearts, that is, there were traitors in the alliance.

"The prince said that he laughed, but the grain in the mountains this year was a poor harvest, but there is everything in the mountains, and no one will starve to death." Jashen said stiffly.

"Okay, don't slap your swollen face and become fat." Guo Qi said impatiently: "Originally! This king doesn't even want to see you, so he sends an army into the mountains and kills you. If this king is afraid of the great loss of the army, he will directly block the road into the mountain, and even if he does not freeze you to death this winter, he will be able to starve you to death;

However, the ministers under the command of this king all persuaded this king, saying, "You are all my people of Daqi, although you have entered the mountains as bandits, but you are also forced to do so, for the sake of the descendants of China at the same time, let this king meet the two of you and save the mountain people in this great mountain;

Now that you have come, and have shown your sincerity, the king will let you go one step further, and if you remain in the mountains, you will be exempted from paying taxes, and the king will not lack your money;

Go back to your alliance leader and the owner of each village to give a message, if you are willing to submit to this king, this king does not require you all to go down the mountain, you can send some people down the mountain, and this king will be responsible for their food, clothing, housing and transportation in this winter, this king will place them in Yongzhou, enjoy the same treatment as the people of Yongzhou, and they can reclaim the land themselves in the spring of next year;

This king will help you solve this part of the people, and you will be almost over this winter, and the lack of food, cloth, medicinal herbs, etc., this king can provide you. ”

"Lord Wang, do you have any other conditions?" Jashin asked.
