After walking around the Armory Mansion, Su Yi was not interested in anything except flying birds.

Su Lu had no choice but to take her to the street to play.

Xichengfang City is still as lively as ever.

Roadside vendors crowded one after another, selling pots and pans, rouge gouache, and fried fruits.

Vendors carrying sugar gourds come and go, and there is an endless stream of merchants buying goods and women shopping.

The Mid-Autumn Festival is approaching, and the stalls selling moon cakes abound on the street, and the smell of moon cakes permeates most of the streets, and the burnt yellow and round moon cakes fill people's field of vision.

Su Yi held the moon cake in one hand and Su Lu's hand in the other, and walked forward bouncing, his cheeks full of novelty and excitement.

"Dodge"

"Kill you idiots"

The shouting and scolding and the screams of the crowd suddenly sounded in front of them, and the crowd that was originally rubbing shoulders separated a passage in an instant, all the way to Su Lu.

Not far away, a brown healthy horse was slowly moving forward, the knight on the horse had high eyebrows and deep eyes, his hair curled, looking at the crowd around him, his face full of disdain.

"Get out of the way for me, I'm not responsible for killing you."

The foreign knight scolded and scolded, and came towards Su Lu, and when he saw Su Lu blocking the road, a trace of discoloration flashed in his eyes, and he did not restrain the horses, and ran straight into him.

Su Lu frowned, in the capital, there were still such arrogant people.

Gao Dabao's arm waved imperceptibly, and in the crowd, more than a dozen men dressed as merchants, scholars, or ordinary people surrounded Su Lu in a ring.

"Dead bird, stop quickly, you're going to hit someone."

Gao Dabao scolded, and at the same time, his hand moved, and he was ready to stop people.

The high-eyed knight came to Gao Dabao, reined in his horse, and condescended.

"Get out of the way, or I'll trample you to death."

Gao Dabao laughed:

"Come on, come on, see if you can trample Lao Tzu to death."

Su Lu suddenly asked, "Mali?" ”

The knight was stunned for a moment, reined in the reins of the horse, and said in a cold voice:

"Why, Your Excellency knows me?"

Su Lu shook his head: "I don't know, but looking at Your Excellency's travel, the character of the Mali people is really not very good." ”

"Pull it down and beat it up."

Su Lu suddenly laughed, it felt good to be a bully.

Gao Dabao took an arrow step, and several guards in disguise immediately surrounded him, and after three strokes and five divisions, he dragged the knight down, pressed him on the ground and crackled and beat him.

After beating people, Gao Dabao squatted next to the knight with a smile, and smiled suspiciously:

"Boy, remember, this is the territory of the Han Kingdom, and you can't be a barbarian."

The knight's nose and face were swollen when he was beaten, but he was also a reckless man, and not only did he not have the slightest cowardice when he heard the words, but he was even more vicious.

"You wait, I, Nelson, will never swallow this breath, and your Empress of Han will seek justice for me."

"Smack"

Gao Dabao slapped his face and slapped him again, smiling

"Then I can beat you a few more times, so as not to be beaten by His Majesty."

Nelson looked confused, but closed his mouth in amusement, this grandson seemed not afraid of the emperor to clean up, for the sake of the stability in front of him, he still shut up first, and then clean him up afterwards.

Su Lu couldn't help but be a little disappointed, this plot is a little wrong, shouldn't this grandson rely on the identity of a Mali person, rampage on the street, now run a horse and be careful, although the scolding is terrible, but for fear of hitting someone, now that he has been beaten, he doesn't dare to say cruel words, but he is twisted and pinched, like the little lady who was bullied.

It's not interesting to be tight.

"Let's go"

Su Lu lost interest, and led Su Yi to prepare to return to the palace, and when the Mali people came, trouble came.

Sure enough, as soon as Su Lufu returned to the palace, he met Su Ge, who was about to go out of the palace to find him.

"Lord, the envoys of the Mali people have arrived, and His Majesty is receiving them, and they are arrogant, clamoring that they will start a war against our Han Kingdom if they do not divide the share of special gold."

"The Manchu Dynasty can't make a decision, Your Majesty ordered me to find the prince."

Su Lu sighed, asked, and said:

"What are the requirements of the Mali people here?"

Su Ge recalled it carefully, and said uncertainly:

"One is to have a special gold share, and you must monopolize half of it, otherwise you will have to go to war and attack Jiameng Pass."

"One is to ask us to withdraw from the land occupied by the Tang State and return those lands to them."

"The other is what kind of trade clause to sign with them and give them most-favored-nation status."

Su Lu's brows furrowed, the Mali people are menacing, if they don't back down, this battle is inevitable.

"What do the ministers say?"

Sulu asked Suge.

Su Ge's brow furrowed even tighter, trying to remember what the ministers had just said.

"The lords of the military department think that they can't agree, saying that this is a matter of face."

"The adults of the Ministry of Rites think that they can sell their share of the special gold, but they want the Mari people to buy it with money."

"The adults in the household department think that they can sign trade terms, but they can't give MFN status."

Su Lu shook his head, this matter can not be agreed to, agreed, there will be more and more days of beating in the future, and now it must be tough, even if it is a war, it must be tough.

Su Lu instructed Su Ge and said:

"You go and tell Your Majesty that you can't agree to these things, let the Mali people go and prepare for the war, we will wait for them at Jiameng Pass, although our strong crossbow is not as strong as theirs, but it will kill people if they fight it."

Suge hurried away.

In the court, the Mali envoy Shaentes stood in the middle, his face full of rebelliousness.

The rumors are really good, in the Han court, except for Su Lu, the prince of Anguo, there is no one who can handle state affairs, and the few terms he proposed are negotiable, but they are discussing things that can be fully accepted.

What an ignorant official.

Li Qing clapped his hands, stopped the noisy noise of the crowd, and commanded:

"Let's talk about this matter again, General Shantes, and we'll give you an answer later."

A hint of sarcasm flashed across Shantes' face when he heard this:

"Your Majesty, as the supreme ruler of the Han Kingdom, and all the ministers are also the pillars of the Han Kingdom, what else can't be decided now."

"Accept, or war, just ask Your Majesty to give a reply to the foreign minister."

"I'm quick, I don't have to wait."

Immediately the hall became noisy again.

Li Qing looked at Shantes hatefully, and then looked at the ministers, and his face became ugly.

These three are difficult to choose between starting a war with the Mali people.

Is it a war, or promise to sign one of them.

The share of special gold cannot be given, and the land of the Tang State cannot be granted, but can this most-favored-nation treatment be given?

Su Ge hurriedly entered the hall and whispered a few words next to Li Qing.

Shantes' eyes lit up, and the result came.
