Everyone quickly sat down in the Qianqing Palace, Chongzhen looked at the cabinet and said: "This Tartar sent people mainly to redeem this prisoner of war, about the treatment of this prisoner of war I have already said, today we will discuss this limit, what kind of asking price can give us the greatest benefit of the Ming Dynasty!" ”

"I don't know where is the lowest bottom line of Your Majesty?" Sun Chengzong thought for a while and asked. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

"I want to give them a fixed price, 20 million! The nearly 10,000 Houjin elite troops also have a son of Bel Nurhachi, a son of Huang Taiji, and the price is already very affordable! Chongzhen smiled.

The other four people were about to drop their jaws on the ground when they heard it, 20 million, and His Majesty said it, right! It is nearly 10,000 Houjin elites, but these nearly 10,000 troops have been done and have been manipulated and cannot fight, and they feel that His Majesty the Emperor is a little too unkind, although they are enemies.

"Your Majesty, the old minister thinks that the Tartars will not accept such conditions!" Sun Chengzong thought for a while.

"Isn't that still negotiable? This tartar has robbed a lot of money over the years, and they always have to spit it out! Chongzhen smiled.

"Or we can make some territorial claims!" Xu Guangqi added.

"The possibility of this Tartar agreeing is even lower, they don't have much territory in the first place, if we want territory, we must ask them to return the strategic place in front of my Ming Dynasty, they will never agree!" Cheng Ji ordered to listen to the sermon.

Liu Hongxun said with a smile: "We can add it, the higher we offer, the more room for this negotiation!" It will be more able to fight for the greatest interests for us! ”

"Liu Aiqing is right! As long as you write everything you think of, and then hand it over to the Ministry of Rites, let him receive and negotiate, as for the bottom line, all the things they produce will be about fifteen million taels in silver, and I believe that they will pay this price! Chongzhen smiled.

A few other people are laughing, anyway, it is beneficial and harmless to Daming, they just write nothing, and they are happy to be able to do it in the end. And after the four of them discussed, they made an agreement, and then handed it to Chongzhen for inspection, and Chongzhen felt that there was no problem and covered the jade seal with satisfaction.

"Since there is a charter for the matter, then I will hand it over to Li Shangshu, I am happy today, you don't have to go back, just accompany me to eat! I still have something to discuss with you! We'll have a bite to eat! Chongzhen smiled.

"Your Ministers obey!" The four replied with a smile.

On the other side, Li Yangde, who had just finished the ceremony, received a new task from Emperor Chongzhen, and immediately went to receive Sony non-stop. And Sonny was hung for a long time and finally saw the person who received him, and hurried over to greet him: "Xiaosheng Hesheri Sonny meets the adult!" ”

Li Yangde didn't even bother to look at him, he just agreed, and Sony saw that this adult ignored him, and he didn't want to see himself, so he must have done not enough, so he quickly took out a dozen thick silver tickets from his pocket, to say the least, there were a thousand taels, and then handed it to Li Yangde and said: "Xiaosheng is in a hurry, it's too late to prepare some gifts for adults, and please smile at this silver tael!" ”

Li Yangde looked at it, this is at least a thousand taels of silver, but who am I, Li Yangde? This Tartar actually wants to bribe this official! I saw Li Yangde wave his hand and said, "Sit down!" Put away the money! Let's get down to business! ”

"Do you dislike the lack of silver? Impossible! Oh! It's definitely inconvenient to be in the palace now! Sonny thought to himself, so he put away the silver two with a smile that I understood, and sat down in the bottom seat with a smile.

"The original purpose of your coming has also been understood, do you want to ransom those prisoners of war?" Li Yangde said.

"This official is so easy to talk to? I didn't say anything, he just said it? It seems that the silver just now should have moved him, it seems that the officials of the Ming Dynasty are all virtuous! So he smiled and said, "Your Excellency is wise! Xiaosheng is here for this! ”

Li Yangde nodded, then handed him a document and said, "This is the condition that my Da Ming offered!" Check it out! ”

"So soon, they're all ready?" Sonny was puzzled, and then respectfully took it: "Thank you, sir! ”

Li Yangde nodded, and then stopped talking, and began to close his eyes and recuperate, he was tired all morning, and he hadn't eaten yet, and he came to receive this tartar again, he was really a little tired, so take advantage of this time to take a little rest.

And when Sony opened the paperwork and saw that the first one to redeem the prisoners of war needed two hundred and fifty-five million taels of silver, the whole person fell into a collapse, is this Ming poor and crazy? Twenty-five million taels of silver, this is to hollow out the Dajin Kingdom and not have so much money! Do these Ming officials only have silver in their eyes? The second is the return of territory and other demands, if these demands are agreed to this big gold country, it is equivalent to the death of the country, after a cold sweat, Sonny smiled bitterly: "My lord! You see that Xiaosheng came sincerely on behalf of Dajin Guo this time, but the conditions on this document are too 。。。。。。。 ”

Li Yangde opened his eyes and said slowly, "What? Do you mean to say that we have no sincerity? ”

Sonny wiped his cold sweat and said, "Xiao Sheng didn't mean that, but this condition is really a bit 。。。。。。 Demanding! ”

Li Yangde squinted his eyes slightly and said, "You can go back and think about it!" Come back later! Feel relieved! We won't do anything to the POWs until we negotiate it, promise it! ”

Sony was also helpless, sighed and said, "That little student retires!" ”

Li Yangde nodded, then waved his hand, signaling that he could leave, watching Sonny respectfully retreat, the corners of Li Yangde's mouth curled, and then he got up and stretched, and left.

After returning to the residence, Sony took the document and read it, after reading it, he began to think about it, it stands to reason that he should not open such an unacceptable condition all at once, but they opened it, this Ming is obviously asking for a price, the fundamental purpose is just to strive for the greatest interests, the reason why the price is now asking for is just to have more room for negotiation and concession, thinking of this, Sony calmed down and began to think about countermeasures, and then he ordered the attendant to come over, and explained a few words in his ear, Then he took out a large handful of silver tickets, and gave the guards a list, which was the names and residences of the main officials in the court now, which was the result of his investigation in the palace today, and then the guards took the silver tickets and the list and went out, and then he wrote a letter, put it in the envelope with the list given to him by Li Yangde, and then sent another guard to send it out urgently, and after doing this, he sat down again and began to think。。。。。。

And what Sony didn't know was that his every move was under the surveillance of some dark shadows。。。。。。
