Ximen Liu thought about it and felt that it was more important in front of him. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 He struggled to get up from the ground and said weakly: "You Xiangguo, can you delay it for two days so that the contemptible people can raise silver taels?" The only thing he has on his mind now is to delay the payment as much as possible. If you can drag Kim Jong-lei into the city, you don't have to pay money.

You An shook his head, squinted his eyes and looked at Ximen Liu with a smile, as if he saw what he was hiding in his brain, and said to the point: "Ximen Gong, Jin Zhenglei is going to attack the city tomorrow, if you don't take out this silver today, you may not have a chance to take it tomorrow!" ”

Simon Liu could understand what Youan was referring to when he said "there may be no chance tomorrow". If Ximen Liu didn't come up with this 11 million taels of silver, Youan would be able to show him for disrespect. This charge was enough to destroy his house.

Ximen Liu thought to himself, I can't wait for Kim Zhenglei to attack the city today, so that he won't lose more than 10 million taels of silver in vain, so why does he have to wait until tomorrow to attack the city?! It seems that if he doesn't take out these silver taels today, he may not even be able to get by today, and he will not see the sun rise tomorrow. But Kim Jong-lei waited until tomorrow to attack the city. Is this the protection I bought?

Eleven million taels of silver is more important to Ximen Liu than the root of life, but now, he can only donate it with his teeth, otherwise the root of life will be gone. If the root of life is gone, what is the use of asking for silver taels?

Seeing that 11 million taels of silver were carried away by You'an and others, Ximen Liu's body was as uncomfortable as being cut a thousand catties of flesh, his legs were weak, and he sat on the ground with a plop. . .

When You An happily staked the silver and returned to the palace hall, ready to report to the emperor, he found that the hall was silent, and a group of civil and military ministers knelt on the ground.

The civil and military officials knelt on both sides of the hall with their heads down, silent, silent as cicadas. The emperor stood by the dragon chair with his back to the minister, silent, his shoulders trembling involuntarily.

There was a dead silence in the hall, and even the sound of beads of sweat falling to the ground could be heard.

In the middle of the main hall, there was a man in full armor, prostrate on the ground, trembling, sweating, and You An looked at it, and it turned out to be the general Qu Gai.

You An didn't know what was going on, so he quickly tiptoed to Qu Gai's side, pushed him, and asked quietly, "General Qu, what happened?" ”

Qu Gai turned his head to look at You'an, sighed, and replied in a low voice: "I led the troops to Taifu's Mansion to catch Fei Chong, but it was empty, Taifu Fu had already gone to the empty building, and Fei Chong didn't know where to go." ”

"Huh?" When Euan heard this, he was so shocked that he almost cried out. This fee charge is too powerful, isn't it? In the morning, we had just discussed arresting him and handing him over to Kim Jong-lei, and in the afternoon he ran away. Who revealed the news to him?

But that doesn't matter anymore. The most important thing now is that I am afraid that we will not even be able to negotiate peace.

You'an's heart suddenly cooled. Originally, he thought that 11 million silver plus Fei Chong plus three counties should allow Yan Shen to agree to peace. Now that Fei Chong has run away, even if Yan Shen agrees to negotiate peace, can Kim Jonglei agree, after all, the latter is the commander of the three armies, and none of his demands have been met, can he wronged himself to completely listen to Yan Shen of the prison army?

Alas, what should have been a perfect plan have all failed, what should be done next?

After retreating from the court, You An quietly carried the 10 million taels of silver back to the mansion, he felt that the emperor should not need these silver at this time, and these silver may be more useful to himself.

The defense of the country may be finished, but he Youan will be developed from now on. With more than 10 million taels of silver, even if you don't become a Xiangguo, you will be rich and noble in the future.

What's more, maybe there is a chance to continue to be Xiangguo? Now the one who steals the fun has become Euan.

You An sent his henchman You Fu to invite the general Qu Gai to the study of Xiangguo's mansion.

"You Xiangguo, I don't know if you invited me here, what do you have to order?" Qu Gai hugged his fist at You'an and smiled.

"General, there is nothing else to do, just to invite you to have a cup of tea." Euan stood up and gave way to Qugai.

You Fu personally brought two cups of hot Longjing tea.

"At this time, I am still in the mood to drink tea, it seems that You Xiangguo is really in danger!" Qugai sat down on Euan's side, teasing.

"It is precisely because of the crisis that the need for composure is even greater." Euan shrugged, then sat back in his chair.

"Yes, yes, because you need to be calm, you need to drink tea." Qu Gai said, picked up the teacup, pursed his mouth and blew on the tea leaves floating on it, and took a small sip.

You An picked up the teacup, glanced at Qu Gai, who was eating tea with his head down, and asked slowly: "General Qu, how long do you think this Duo'an City can be defended?" ”

Qu Gai didn't raise his head, just ate tea, but spit out a few words in the gap between eating tea: "I can't keep it for two days." ”

When You An heard this, he was out of his mind for a long time, and Fang said: "As soon as Fei Chong runs, it seems that the peace negotiation cannot be completed." ”

Qu Gai nodded in agreement: "Yes! It seems that the defense of the country is hopeless! ”

You Anxin thought that Qu Gai's thoughts were probably the same as mine, so it was better to test and tempt, so he asked: "After the city is broken, what is General Qu Gai's plan?" ”

"You can only run, or where can you go?" Qu Gai sneered in his nose.

When You An heard this, he roughly knew Qu Gai's intentions, so he said tentatively: "General Qu is the head of the military attaché, and You Mou is the first to lead the civil ministers, if our two leaders run away, after Kim Zhenglei's army enters the city, if it is not good for our patriotic people, I am afraid that no one in the court will be able to discourage it." ”

Qu Gaiyi looked at You An with encouraging eyes, and asked with a smile, "I don't know what You Xiangguo means?" You and I have been friends for many years, but it doesn't hurt to say it. It was as if he had seen through Euan's thoughts, and he just needed to express it himself

You An had a compassionate heart, and said sadly: "Now the safety of the country and the Do'an Mansion is tied to you and me, you and I must work together to ensure that the country is safe... I felt that since we couldn't hold it, it was better to take the initiative to open the city gate. In this way, there will be fewer deaths of soldiers and fewer deaths of civilians! ”

Qu Gai smiled and continued: "If this is the case, we can still be regarded as heroes on Kim Jonglei's side, and we will have the opportunity to help defend the country in front of Kim Jonglei in the future and help the people of Defend the country to be the masters!" I believe that the people of the country will be able to understand our suffering. ”

"Those who know the times are Junjie! General Qu is really smart and wise! Euan gave Qu Gai a thumbs up and smiled.

You An Qu Gai and the two hit it off, and after a long time, it was finally decided that You An would go to Chen Ying in the name of the peace envoy to report to Kim Jong Lei, and Qu Gai would be responsible for opening the city gate and welcoming Chen Guo's army into the city. (To be continued.) )
