Everyone retreated, but Zhao Huan gave Wu Min a look and asked him to stay.

At this time, only Zhao Huan and Wu Min were left in the imperial study, and Wu Min asked cautiously, "Your Majesty, what happened?" ”

Zhao Huan snorted, "Just now there was news from Guozijian that thousands of Tai students are gathering overnight, preparing to march on the street tomorrow morning, opposing the peace. ”

Wu Min was stunned for a moment, there was still such a thing.

Zhao Huan returned to his seat and sat down, and asked coldly, "Who will be behind this, have you thought of it?" ”

Wu Min was silent for a moment and said, "I think it shouldn't be Li Yanqing's doing. ”

"Why not him?"

"He really wants to stop us from negotiating, there is no need to use Tai Xue, directly provoke a war, there is no negotiation, and although he is from Taixue, he has little influence among the civil officials, and if he is away for a long time, Tai Jiao may not buy his account."

Wu Min's excuse for excluding Li Yanqing is not very sufficient, in fact, Wu Min is completely aware that Li Yanqing has the ability to mobilize too many students, but Wu Min still downplays his influence, not because of how deep the friendship between Wu Min and Li Yanqing is, but because he has his own selfishness, Li Yanqing is not his political enemy, he doesn't need to waste this opportunity on Li Yanqing, he wants to use this rare opportunity to stab his political enemy.

"Li Yanqing can't escape the relationship in this matter, I know him, he is good at shooting behind his back, even if he is not leading this matter, he is also single-handedly making suggestions." Zhao Huan obviously didn't quite believe Wu Min's explanation.

Wu Min was silent for a moment and said: "There is something that Weichen doesn't dare to say clearly, in the past two days, Weichen has sent people to monitor Li Xiangguo, and Weichen's subordinates saw his carriage enter Taixue last night. ”

"What!"

Zhao Huan's face suddenly became extremely ugly, he could no longer restrain the annoyance in his heart, and slammed his fist on the table, "Bastard!" ”

Wu Min hurriedly persuaded: "Your Majesty, please calm your anger, Li Xiangguo's behavior may be a bit extreme, but Weichen believes that he is not for personal gain." ”

"Humph! Do everything possible to obstruct me, I hate this kind of person who will do whatever it takes to achieve his ends, I have always thought he is very upright, and now it seems that I really look at the wrong person! ”

Wu Min hurriedly lowered his head, hiding the joy in his eyes, and he said slowly: "Your Majesty, this matter should actually be relatively easy to solve. ”

"You say, how do you solve this?"

"The solution is very simple, we can do it in two ways, on the one hand, block the gate of Taixue and not allow Taixue students to go on the street, and on the other hand, Weichen suggested that Zhang Xiangguo and Ma Shaoqing should go out of the city tonight, so as not to have too many dreams at night!"

Zhao Huan walked a few steps with his hands in his hands, and resolutely turned around and ordered: "Spread my message, immediately announce that Dong Ping and Yao Pingzhong will come to see me!" ”

...........

At the end of the watch, the new Song Gate creaked open, the drawbridge was slowly lowered, the three hundred cavalry armor was distinct, and the spear in hand was lined up next to the city gate, at this time, the deputy commander Dong Ping personally sent the peace talks to Zhang Bangchang, the deputy envoy Ma Zheng and more than a dozen civil officials and his entourage to the city gate, Dong Ping arched his hand and said: "I wish the two Zhang Xianggong a victory and a successful negotiation!" ”

"Thank you, General Dong, farewell!" Zhang Bangchang arched his hand, turned his horse's head and walked out of the city, and his followers followed.

Dong Ping immediately ordered 300 cavalry guards to secretly escort Zhang Bangchang and Ma Zheng out of the New Song City, and the group soon disappeared into the dark night.

At dawn the next day, there was a commotion in Taixue, and 5,000 soldiers of the Xiang Army, who were responsible for maintaining order in the city, held large shields and wooden sticks in their hands, and blocked the two gates of Taixue and the east and west.

More than 4,000 Tai students were about to come out of Taixue with banners opposing the peace, but they were blocked by black soldiers in a row, and one-person-high mud and sandbags were piled up in front of the gate, completely blocking the gate, making it impossible for thousands of Tai students to leave the school gate.

The students were angry, they pushed to the sandbags, the stones were thrown at the soldiers like raindrops, the soldiers raised their shields to resist, at this time, hundreds of students held a big log, shouted and rushed towards the soldiers, the team was in chaos, but the wood was finally forcibly stopped by the soldiers, the soldiers brandished thick wooden sticks and hit the students with their heads and faces, dozens of people were beaten to the head and blood, fell to the ground, and were rescued by other students.

"Shameless! There's a kind of going to fight the gold soldiers! ”

The students shouted angrily: "You will only suppress the people who have no iron left, go back!" ”

The 5,000 soldiers, however, did not retreat at all, and rebuilt the sandbag wall.

Angry Taixue threw bricks and stones at the soldiers again, hundreds of Taixue students climbed over the sandbags, rushed to the ranks, and the soldiers tore up, Taixue Gate was in chaos, in the southwest corner of Taixue, Jia Guan, one of the student leaders, climbed over the high wall with the help of a ladder, and ran in the direction of Beicheng........

Half an hour later, Jia Guan found Li Yanqing at the head of Beicheng, Li Yanqing pondered for a long time, and said to Jia Guan: "I underestimated the determination of the imperial court to negotiate peace, for everyone's safety, this operation will be canceled!" ”

"What does Li Dutong mean is that the peace envoy has already left the city?"

"I just got the news, they have already left the city last night, Xiangguo Zhang Bangchang is the main envoy, Honglu Shaoqing Ma Zheng is the deputy envoy, now the two sides should negotiate peace in Jinying, this time the responsibility is mine, I didn't expect the imperial court to act so quickly and decisively."

Li Yanqing sighed and looked at Jia Guan apologetically, "I'm sorry!" ”

Jia Guan shook his head, "It was we who underestimated the shamelessness of the Lord and the faction, and it has nothing to do with Li Dutong. ”

Li Yanqing thought for a while and said: "I estimate that the imperial court will retaliate afterwards, after this matter is over, you and Chen Dong will come to me immediately, and I will arrange for you to hide in the army, it is best to come this afternoon!" ”

"Thank you Li Dutong for your help!"

Jia Guan saluted Li Yanqing, turned around and hurried down the city along the road.

Li Yanqing walked to the women's wall, watched Jia Guan walk away, I don't know who gave Zhao Huan the bad idea, and actually sent troops to suppress the students, which pushed the students to the opposite side of the imperial court, in fact, sending a respected minister to persuade the students, knowing the affection, and enticing them to benefit, it would also have a good effect, but the most stupid method was used.

Li Yanqing shook his head, Zhao Huan is far worse than his father Zhao Ji in terms of IQ and EQ, no wonder Zhao Ji is bent on changing the prince, knowing the son Mo Ruo's father, this sentence makes sense! \

...........

More than 300 students have been injured, hundreds of people have been arrested, and more than 100 soldiers have been injured by bricks and stones.

At this time, Jia Guan climbed over the wall and returned to Taixue and found the leader Chen Dong, who immediately convened more than a dozen Taixue representatives to discuss countermeasures.

"Jia Guan has received the news, the envoy of the peace exchange left the capital last night, the peace negotiation is inevitable, everyone, our operation has failed, everyone take a look, do you want to stop temporarily?"

Chen Dong is smarter, there are many people here, and he did not disclose the source of the news.

An elderly student said angrily: "It's not impossible to pause, it's just that the imperial court actually used the army to suppress us, it's too chilling." ”

Everyone was extremely angry at the actions of the imperial court, but in the end they unanimously agreed to temporarily cancel the march against peace.

At noon, a Tai student sent a letter to Yao Pei Pingzhong, the commander of the Xiang Army, to stop the march, and thousands of Tai students disbanded and returned to their dormitories, but Yao Pingzhong did not lead the soldiers to leave, and the official family gave him a decree in advance, and he must wait until the end of the peace before the army can evacuate, and at this time, Nie Shan led three hundred Kaifeng Mansion to capture the Taixue gate at the gate of Taixue, their task is to enter Taixue after the Tai students disbanded, and arrest the Tai student leaders who organized the parade.

At the same time, Chen Dong and Jia Guan escaped from Taixue from the southwest corner of Taixue and ran towards the northern city.........

Zhang Bangchang returned to the capital at dusk, Dong Ping, who had been waiting at the New Song Gate, personally led the army to escort Zhang Bangchang into the interior, at this time, Zhao Huan and several Xiangguo were waiting for Zhang Bangchang's news in the imperial study, as early as noon, Zhao Huan got the express sent by Zhang Bangchang, the negotiations were very smooth, and it is expected that an agreement will be reached today, this news makes Zhao Huan and the ministers full of expectations.

At this time, a eunuch reported at the door, "Zhang Xianggong has returned from the barracks and is waiting outside the palace!" ”

Zhao Huan hurriedly said: "Hurry up and announce Zhang Xiangguo's visit!" ”

"Your Majesty has a decree to announce the Xiangguo Visit!"

As the guards shouted, after a while, Zhang Bangchang hurriedly walked into the imperial study, and he could hardly hide the excitement in his heart.

"Weichen see Your Majesty!"

"Zhang Xiangguo is exempt, how is the negotiation?" Zhao Huan asked eagerly.

In the imperial study, everyone's eyes were on Zhang Bangchang, and Zhang Bangchang said in a trembling voice: "Negotiation..... It's over, and Wechen is fortunate not to be dishonored! ”

Zhao Huan was overjoyed and asked again; "Then when will the troops be withdrawn?"

"The Jin soldiers promised to retreat north and return to the north of the Yellow River overnight tonight, and the war will officially end tonight."

There was a burst of cheers in the imperial study, and the Xiangguo were all excited to hug each other, and the one-and-a-half-month war was finally over.

At this time, Bai Shizhong asked again: "Zhang Xiangguo, what are the conditions for the withdrawal of Jin Bing?" ”

The imperial study suddenly fell silent again, this is also an extremely important concern, if they pay a heavy price to let the Jin soldiers retreat north, I am afraid they will also be ridiculed, or even more than they gain.

Zhang Bangchang bowed down and said: "Qi Bai Xiangguo, Qi Qi Your Majesty, this is the focus of this afternoon's negotiations, after several rounds of bargaining between the two sides, Wan Yan Xian also recognized our sincerity, gave up the high claim, and only asked us to pay 200,000 stone horse material black beans, and asked to send them to the south bank of the Yellow River within three days." ”

"What!"

Zhao Huan was taken aback, he couldn't believe his ears, "Only 200,000 stone horse materials?" ”

"That's right, this is the official withdrawal text signed by both sides, please look at it."

Zhang Bangchang presented a negotiation text that had been signed and printed by both parties to Zhao Huan, and Zhao Huan read it several times, and the other party really only needed 200,000 stone horses.

Zhao Huan was overjoyed, who said that negotiations are useless, there is no need for a tragic war, and negotiations can solve the problem, and only pay a very slight price, just 200,000 stone horse material black beans.

"Zhang Xiangguo is really the pillar of my Great Song Dynasty!" Zhao Huan praised sincerely.
