In fact, their willingness was quickly achieved, and only a day after Lü Yan entered the city of Nanjing to bombard, an envoy from the imperial court arrived in Nanjing, escorted by a large number of Jinyi guards and a thousand Tang elite horsemen.

Although the strength of this reinforcement is not strong, it is more than enough to fulfill their wishes.

After deciding to negotiate peace with Lü Yan, the Ming court immediately sent this envoy south to Nanjing in the starry night to prevent Lü Yan from attacking Nanjing.

"Congratulations to King Qin, the court has finally agreed to negotiate peace."

The eunuch surnamed Li said with a smile when he saw Lu Yan.

Hearing this, Lu Yan's face softened.

"That's fine, then who is the messenger of the peace talks?"

Lu Yan glanced at this eunuch, shouldn't it be this eunuch.

"The imperial court still decided to appoint Li Sancai, the secretary of the Nanjing Household Department, and Wei Guangwei, the right attendant of the Nanjing Ministry of Rites, as envoys for peace talks, just hoping that before that, I hope that King Qin can stop attacking Nanjing City."

Eunuch Li said.

When he came, there was still a rumbling of cannons outside Nanjing, and needless to say, he also knew that people in Nanjing were definitely panicking.

Therefore, he did not go to those two people to pass the decree, but came directly to Nanjing to find Lu Yan.

"Oh, it's still those two guys, and they happen to be in my camp."

Lu Yan said with some surprise.

"That's really good, and it saves the miscellaneous family another trip, I don't know if I can let the miscellaneous family meet them."

Eunuch Li said with a look of surprise.

Lu Yan nodded, and was about to ask someone to lead Eunuch Li to see Li Sancai, when he suddenly remembered another thing.

"Have you ever found an army of Jurchens outside your gates?"

Lu Yan asked.

"This ......"

Hearing this, Eunuch Li hesitated.

Seeing this, Lu Yan couldn't help but snort coldly, and then looked at him with slightly murderous eyes.

This frightened Eunuch Li unconsciously, and he thought about it. Anyway, it wasn't a secret matter, so he said: "That's right, our night does not collect and we have discovered the army of Jurchens. The number is at least 20,000 or more. ”

Hearing this, Lu Yan nodded. Then let the eunuch leave, it seems that the Jurchens really planned to invade the Ming Dynasty.

After the Ming Dynasty envoy saw Li Sancai and Wei Guangwei, he had been discussing secretly for two hours, and Li Sancai and Wei Guangwei, who had complicated faces, came to see Lu Yan.

"Congratulations to the prince, the saint has finally decided to negotiate peace with the prince."

Li Sancai first congratulated.

Lu Yan bowed slightly, if he still doesn't negotiate peace now, then the only thing he can do is to hit Beijing City.

"The Holy Lord has decided to crown you as the King of Wu, and temporarily hand over Fujian, Zhejiang, Guangdong, and the three provinces to the prince for your custody."

Li Sancai rolled his eyes and said.

Hear here. Lu Yan couldn't help but snort coldly.

"What about the territory I occupy in Nanzhili, Jiangxi, and Huguang? Do you want to go back with empty teeth? ”

Hearing this, Li Sancai couldn't help but smile.

He also knew that the possibility of returning to these territories was too low, and it would be good if Lu Yan could stop attacking.

"Besides, I didn't plan to become a vassal, I decided to set up another country, and I can be the emperor myself, why should I listen to you."

Lu Yan rolled his eyes.

Hearing this, Li Sancai and Wei Guangwei were both shocked, and then said at the same time: "The prince must not do it. ”

Li Sancai sorted out his thoughts and said: "My ancestors of the Ming Dynasty have training, do not cut land, and do not pay compensation. Do not be a minister, do not pay tribute, the Son of Heaven guards the country. The king guards the society. If you plan to set up another country, this is a land cut, and our Ming Dynasty will never negotiate peace with you. ”

Speaking of which, both Li Sancai and Wei Guangwei were proud.

Since the founding of the Ming Dynasty for more than 200 years, it is true that it has never negotiated peace with any barbarians.

No matter how difficult the situation is, Da Ming's attitude is only one, and that is to fight.

Both Li Sancai and Wei Guangwei are proud of this.

Hearing this, Lu Yan fell silent.

After a long time, he muttered: "No land cut, no compensation." No courtiers, no tribute. The Son of Heaven guards the country, and the king guards the society. ”

"That's right. If you insist on establishing another country, then there will only be one battle between the two of us. ”

Li Sancai said loudly.

This is the last bottom line of the Ming Dynasty, no matter what, they will not agree to Lu Yan splitting the earth and sealing the king.

Lu Yan looked at them deeply, and Li Sancai and Wei Guangwei also glared back at him without fear.

"Do you know that as long as this king gives an order, he can capture the city of Nanjing. Then this king waved his army to the north, and he could kill the city of Beijing. Even so, you do not agree with me to set up a kingdom of my own? ”

Lu Yan said in a fierce voice.

"That's right, this is the bottom line of my Ming Dynasty. No matter who it is, as long as it is trying to seal the king in the Ming Dynasty, we will fight with it to the end. ”

Li Sancai also said fearlessly.

Lu Yan was silent for a while, and then suddenly burst out laughing.

This is the Ming Dynasty he likes, the Son of Heaven guards the country, and the king guards the society, at least it is much better than the Manchu Qing Dynasty, who always likes to cede land and pay compensation.

Although Li Sancai and Wei Guangwei were righteous and awe-inspiring on the surface, in fact, their legs were also quietly trembling.

They were all very worried that Lu Yan would be angry and would push them out and behead them.

"Well, the king agreed."

Lu Yan suddenly smiled and said.

"You...... Promised. ”

Li Sancai and Wei Guangwei were both surprised.

How is this possible? Say yes so easily?

They thought it would take a lot of effort to persuade him to agree.

"That's right."

Lu Yan nodded.

Hearing this, Li Sancai and Wei Guangwei were overjoyed.

As long as this Lu Yan agrees, then the biggest obstacle will be removed, and the rest will be much easier to talk about.

"Prince, don't you need to discuss it with your courtiers?"

Li Sancai asked with some hesitation.

"No, these things can be decided by the king."

Lu Yan said domineeringly, "But those local officials can only be appointed and dismissed by me. ”

Lu Yan said.

"There is no problem, but we hope that you can report to the court and give the court some dignity."

Li Sancai said.

Lu Yan nodded, what he valued most was actual interests. As for what is decency?

Can you eat it with dignity?

"In addition, I don't like the title of King Wu, I like King Qin."

Lu Yan said.

"Lord Wang, don't be joking, since ancient times, you can only be called the King of Qin if you are sealed in Qin. You are thousands of miles away from Qin, if you are named the king of Qin, won't it be a joke for the people of the world? ”

Li Sancai shook his head and said.

"But I like it."

Lu Yan emphasized.

"Lord Wang, don't be willful. Title is a very serious matter. You can't just leave it to yourself. ”

Li Sancai said with a smile.

Lu Yan almost blurted out that I was so willful, and I finally endured it.

He thought about it, and finally agreed.

King Wu can't be considered too bad, although he is not as popular as King Qin, and there have been some British masters.

After seeing Lu Yan agree, Li Sancai and Wei Guangwei looked at each other and smiled, it seems that this peace talk can be successfully completed.

"I don't know if you can pay some taxes in the future, if there is no tax in Jiangnan. I am afraid that it will be difficult for the imperial court to sustain itself. ”

Li Sancai continued.

This is a very important issue, and now the imperial court is truly bankrupt.

Not only was it difficult to maintain the salaries of the border army, but even the ministers of the DPRK and China were issued large sums of treasure money to replace the natural silver, and as for what these treasure money could buy, every minister knew very well.

But now that the price of grain in the capital has skyrocketed, if they are not corrupt, they will only have to drink the northwest wind.

Thinking of this, I don't know how many people scolded Lu Yan.

"Why can't you sustain it? Your clans occupy so much land, why don't you tax them. At least half of the land in the Central Plains was occupied by those clans, as well as the Yansheng Mansion in Shandong. Just tax them. You can get at least a few hundred thousand taels of silver a year. ”

Lu Yan said with a sneer.

Hearing this, Li Sancai and Wei Guangwei both shook their heads again and again, this King Wu really dared to speak too fiercely.

"Yan Shenggong is an example for scholars in the world. Shall you tax him? The decision not to tax the clan was made by Emperor Taizu himself, and it was very difficult to tax them. ”

Li Sancai said.

In fact, the Ming Dynasty not only did not levy taxes on those clans, but would take a part of the taxes to support those clans, in fact, the clans of the Ming Dynasty were definitely the biggest cancer of the Ming Dynasty.

Lu Yan sneered, he knew that what he said was in vain, because the Emperor of the Apocalypse would never listen to him, and if he wanted to change the situation, he would probably only be able to do it himself.

"It's not impossible to want me to pay taxes, but you have to exchange them for displaced people or disaster victims."

Lu Yan said.

"Displaced people and disaster victims to exchange?"

Hear here. Li Sancai and Wei Guangwei were both shocked, what is the situation?

"In the future, this king intends to go on an expedition to the South Seas. It is intended to enrich the South Seas with displaced people and disaster victims. ”

Lu Yan said.

"Lord Wang, are you planning an expedition to the South Seas?"

Li Sancai was even more surprised.

"That's right, all over the world. It's not the king's land. On the shore of the land, it is not the king's minister. Those Nanyang barbarians did not accept the king's transformation and had a lot of disrespect for our Ming Dynasty, so the king decided to send tens of thousands of troops to the Nanyang. ”

Lu Yan said.

There is disrespect for Da Mingduo, how can they not know.

Li Sancai and Wei Guang thought secretly.

However, they all felt that this matter was very important, and it was better for the imperial court to make a decision.

"Those displaced people are also the people of the Ming Dynasty, we have no right to agree, and this matter still needs to be played to the imperial court."

Li Sancai thought about it and said.

"It doesn't matter, you just need to know that there are no outcasts, and this king will not give you a penny of silver."

Lu Yan said.

They also discussed some other things, such as how to join forces to fight against gold.

Lü Yan planned to temporarily send 30,000 soldiers to the Dongjiang River and North Korea to contain the Jurchens there.

Because he didn't want to get involved with the Ming army in Liaodong, the two sides definitely couldn't talk about trust, but were wary of each other.

If they are mixed together, their combat effectiveness will not rise, but will only decline, and maybe there will be a stab in the back.

After he had accumulated enough troops, he would launch a full-scale attack on the Jurchens in Liaodong.

They have been discussing for several hours, and thanks to Lu Yan's concessions, many things have been resolved smoothly.

This made Li Sancai and Wei Guangwei very happy, and it seemed that they could successfully complete the task.

"In addition, I have one more thing to congratulate the prince."

Li Sancai said with a smile.

"What is the joy of this king?"

Lu Yan asked with a puzzled expression.

"The Holy Lord knows that you are twenty years old and still not married, so you decided to marry a royal sister to the prince, isn't this a happy event?"

Li Sancai said with a smile. (To be continued)
