Chapter 351: Renegotiation

Da Dan was furious, no one could have imagined that at his age, he could hold such a strong anger, he stood up, raised his hands high, as if begging the gods to come, and as if he was challenging all the enemies of the world, shouting, cursing, and reprimanding...... Words poured out like a flood. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

The Huns in the tent were all silent, kneeling on the ground and not daring to move, and the tyrannical King Youxian, who was tyrannical in front of the Chu people, was obediently lying on the ground at this time, more honest than the hound who received the master's order.

Han Ruzi was not afraid, because he couldn't understand a word.

Feng Shili and the others couldn't understand either, but they had lost most of their courage since they were captured, and they couldn't be as calm as the emperor.

Han Ruzi was not afraid, but also because he knew that Da Shan Yu's anger had nothing to do with anyone in this tent, it must be because the Chu army outside the tent was progressing well.

Da Shan Yu's anger finally burned out, stared at the emperor for a while, and slowly sat down, showing fatigue.

There was silence in the tent, and the interpreter was not ordered, and he did not dare to interpret a word.

Da Shan Yu waved his hand, and the interpreter said in a trembling voice: "Emperor...... Please take a break. ”

The emperor was not mistreated, he had wine and meat, but he could not move around at will, and he could not get a word of news.

Han Ruzi sat on the bed, and soon in the afternoon, he began to feel a headache, which worsened little by little, and in the evening, the pain was so painful that he could hardly think.

"Is a headache a symptom?" He asked, remembering very well that the last time he was poisoned, he was just weak and had no headache.

There were only two people in the tent, Meng E walked over, reached out and pressed the emperor's forehead for a while, then picked up his wrist and pressed the pulse for a while, "Your Majesty is too anxious." ”

Han Ruzi smiled slightly, he couldn't bluff at any time, there was always a time when he couldn't hide it.

"Walking on thin ice, Meng E, I now know what it means to walk on thin ice."

Meng E snorted and retreated.

Han Ruzi forced himself to think and fight against the headache, and after a while he asked again: "How long will the poison last tonight?" ”

"About ten days, I use a relatively large amount of medicine."

"Hey, if the Huns give in in and we die here in the end, then ...... Interesting. Han Ruzi didn't mean to complain, it was his idea at the beginning, Meng E just implemented it, he really thought it was interesting, and couldn't help laughing.

Meng E's eyes were a little confused, "I don't understand......"

"Is the emperor important?"

"Of course, the emperor is the lord of the world, and the country cannot be without a king for a day."

"Does the person who is the emperor matter?" Han Ruzi asked a different way.

Meng E was stunned for a moment, and finally understood what Han Ruzi meant, slowly walked to the emperor's side, and said in an unprecedentedly gentle voice: "There is no one more suitable to be an emperor than Your Majesty." ”

Han Ruzi looked up at Meng E.

"The emperor is important, and the person who is the emperor is also very important, in the eyes of the ministers, it may be the same, but to Dachu and the military and people of Jincheng...... For me, there is a major difference between who is the emperor, if it weren't for you, the city of Jin would have been broken, we would either be killed or reduced to slavery, and Da Chu would have succumbed. Da Chu may be able to expel the Huns in the future, but what about before the expulsion? Countless people will die because of it. ”

"I couldn't get rid of the Huns."

Meng E showed a hint of a smile, "But Your Majesty is insisting, because of this, the Chu army outside the fortress will go all the way east, and the court in the capital will dare to prepare a new monarch, if Your Majesty gives up early, who will the Chu army fight for?" How could the imperial court dare to be tough on the Huns? ”

Han Ruzi was silent for a long time, "Thank you." ”

Meng E retreated back to the original place, a door in her heart was opened, and she wanted to rush out of the room, but she forcibly blocked the door, and when she was hesitating, a guard outside came in and inadvertently helped her reclose the door, "The Huns ask to see Your Majesty." ”

The interpreter came in, put on a much more polite face, bowed his hand, and said with a smile: "Da Shan Yu said that he and the emperor hit it off at first sight in the Broken Iron City last year, and they are like their ancestors and grandchildren, no matter how many misunderstandings and conflicts occur in the middle, this relationship will not change." The strong enemy in the west is approaching step by step, which is a threat to the Huns and Dachu, and everything the Huns have done so far is to form an alliance. ”

Han Ruzi stood up, his face was expressionless, and his head didn't hurt anymore, just like a sick lion, he usually walked and shook, as soon as he saw his prey, he was immediately full of vitality, hiding, approaching, and pounced, every movement was as perfect as when he was healthy.

The interpreter's smile stiffened a little, and after waiting for a while, he continued: "Your Majesty can go back to Jincheng, and you can even leave Jincheng." ”

"What about the conditions?" Han Ruzi became more and more calm, if he had agreed to all the humiliating conditions proposed by Da Shan Yu, maybe he would have arrived in the capital by now.

"Da Shan Yu said that he is not in a hurry, there are many envoys from Da Chu here, and after we negotiate, we will let the envoys go to inform the emperor."

"Okay." Han Ruzi pretended to think for a while, and said to Meng E: "Prepare the horse and return to the city." ”

For a whole day and a night, the emperor had no news at all, the soldiers and civilians of Jincheng had been waiting anxiously, and saw a torch approaching from a distance, and immediately a team went out of the city to check, and found that the emperor had returned, and was overjoyed, turned around and escorted, and someone quickly returned to the city to report the good news.

On the ruins of the city gates, more people greeted the emperor than when they saw him off, and many wounded people also came, standing solemnly on both sides.

Han Ruzi slowed down, returned to half of the palace, immediately summoned the generals, listened to the briefing, the generals arranged very well, did not relax, he was very satisfied, encouraged him, let the eunuchs send away, and then there were few remaining civil officials, they did not have much to say, kowtow to say goodbye, congratulations on the safe return of His Majesty.

Cui Teng limped and followed the king of the East China Sea, and when the emperor was free, he smiled and said: "I thought I wouldn't see Your Majesty again, and I was anxious about how to explain to my sister in the future, but Your Majesty came back, hehe, it's good." ”

Cui Teng couldn't speak, but no one complained about him at this time, even the king of the East China Sea just smiled and shook his head, and didn't say anything, although the danger had not been lifted, but the emperor could come back, and everyone was immersed in joy.

"Big orders are more important than negotiations." Han Ruzi said.

"What else to talk about? Didn't we refuse a long time ago? Cui Teng frowned slightly, not understanding why the Huns were fighting for a while.

"Da Danyu has proposed new conditions?" The king of the East China Sea knew very well that the expulsion of the Huns by Great Chu might not need to negotiate, and he wanted to lift the siege of Jincheng and save the emperor's life, but there was only one way to negotiate.

"Probably someone will come tomorrow, and the military situation outside the fortress will definitely be very unfavorable to the Huns." Han Ruzi thought for a while, and said to Cai Xinghai, who had never left: "From tomorrow, closely monitor the movements of the Huns, and report at any time if there are signs of troop transfer." ”

"Yes, Your Majesty."

Han Ruzi said to the king of the East China Sea: "You discuss a negotiation plan with the officials in the city, and from now on, you will negotiate with the Huns on my behalf." ”

The king of the East China Sea was very surprised, unless Da Dan Yu came forward, of course the emperor should not personally participate in the negotiations, but to hand over such an important responsibility to himself, the king of the East China Sea did not expect it at all, was stunned for a while, and said solemnly: "Obey the order, Your Majesty." ”

Cui Teng was impatient, "What about me?" What about me? ”

"You...... Put the guard of honor in order. ”

"Don't worry, Your Majesty, the pomp and circumstance will not be reduced at all." Cui Teng was triumphant and felt that his duty was more important than anyone else's.

Han Ruzi went to Beicheng, where many soldiers were too seriously injured to go to pick up the car, Fan Bangshan couldn't speak, he could only nod to the emperor, the head of the guards was barely able to sit up, the emperor waived all etiquette, comforted, and went back to the palace to rest.

Midnight has passed, Han Ruzi has already felt weak and powerless, but he still accepts the service of Zhang Youcai and other eunuchs normally, the lights and candles are extinguished, Tailin retreats, Meng E stays, and no one cares.

Something touched his lips, Han Ruzi opened his mouth to swallow, and after a while he said, "Don't tell outsiders about this." ”

"Hmm." Meng E's voice came from the corner.

"We have to find a way to stop this poison."

"I have some antidotes ready to use, but that's not fundamental."

"It's all in Yunmengze." Han Ruzi closed his eyes and fell asleep, that was a problem he would solve sooner or later, but not now.

In the afternoon of the next day, Chovanv came.

There were several groups of envoys from Da Chu, all of whom were much higher than Qiao Wanfu's official position, but Da Shan Yu chose him to pass on the message.

Da Dan Yu lowered the requirements: the Xiongnu only need Liaodong, the rebels only need the Qi State, other conditions have not changed, exchange the city, and give each other a number of gifts every year - the gifts of the Huns are only symbolic, but the Great Chu has to pay a lot of real money.

There is also a relative, Da Chu must hand over the abducted Youxian Wang concubine, and "compensate" a princess, as a continuation of the original peace talks, Da Shan Yu will also marry several of his daughters and granddaughters to the emperor, one of whom will be the queen, at least alongside the queen.

There were many other conditions, and the Huns really looked like they were negotiating.

The king of the East China Sea understood the emperor's bottom line, refuted and revised them one by one, and the paper that was already densely written was added with more flyy letters.

The emperor will never give up an inch of territory, this is the bottom line, as for the other conditions, the king of the East China Sea objected, just to bargain.

Qiao Wanfu wanted to bring Da Chu's reply to Da Shan Yu, and was summoned by the emperor before leaving.

Qiao Wanfu was appreciated by Da Dan Yu because he calculated in detail how much the Huns would spend in a year, how much the grassland could solve, and how much he needed to get from Da Chu.

He said to the emperor: "The Huns are greedy for profit after all, and giving gifts to each other is actually the bottom line of a big order, and other things have to be discussed." ”

"Can Da Chu afford it?"

Qiao Wanfu is not an official of the household department, but he has been an official in Aocang for a long time, and he can roughly calculate the output of the entire Dachu, "The current amount is too large, and if it is reduced by three to fifty percent, Dachu can afford it, but it will take several years to adjust the wind and rain." ”

"I'll find out more information over there, I need to figure out what's going on outside, so that Da Shan Yu can suddenly give up the siege."

The words "Deng Cui's Eastern Crusade" were too simple, and Han Ruzi urgently needed more detailed information to determine how far he would compromise in this negotiation.

"Mr. Qu understands a little Xiongnu language, and has been secretly listening to the news, and Weichen should be able to bring details tomorrow."

Han Ruzi sent someone to send Qiao Wanfu away.

The battle between the soldiers has ended for the time being, and another battle has just begun. (To be continued.) )
