Chapter 281: How Much Is A Princess Worth

What kind of identity will Renzong give himself to stand at the negotiating table? Coming out of Lu Yijian's house, Chen Yuan kept thinking about this question. The career system of the Song Dynasty is still very strict, and you should know when you look at those who are high in the temple that they are old enough to show their political achievements step by step, which is the most conventional way to walk in the Song Dynasty.

But the problem is that he has no fame at all now, and Renzong will definitely not let himself use the identity of a businessman to negotiate with Yelu Negolo and others. The officials can't be too big, and that will make the ministers unconvinced.

Chen Yuan thought about it for a long time, but he didn't think of which position was the most suitable for Renzong to keep for himself. However, he thought very clearly about the negotiation, what Renzong wanted was to let the Song Dynasty intervene in the war later, which Chen Yuan could definitely do.

If Renzong really let him go, he would not agree to the various requests put forward by the party members so happily, he asked Zhang Yuan to beg him, let Zhang Yuan beg for his own words, Tie Anli and Su Tu and others would be saved.

As long as he saves the lives of his brothers, he can promise to give money if the party member asks for money, and Renzong also means to support the party a little, so that Li Yuanhao can last longer under the attack of the Liao State.

It's no problem to want a princess, anyway, it's not Chen Chunmei from his own family, Renzong is willing to do it, and he has no reason to be reluctant.

What conditions can be used as bargaining chips when negotiating? At the beginning, how much sweetness could be guaranteed to the party members, that is, Zhang Yuan was given hope, so that he was willing to stay at the negotiating table and negotiate terms with him, and he could also whet his appetite and make him make concessions in the affairs of Tie Anli and others?

What the hell does that princess look like? It would be nice if she could meet each other, she is her biggest bargaining chip, if she is more graceful and can make Li Yuanhao fall in love at first sight, then things will be easier to do.

Walking into the gate of the villa, Linghua was still sitting in the lobby, and a woman was chatting with Linghua. Chen Yuan fixed his eyes on it, but it was Zhao Yi, and Chen Yuan's heart was greatly surprised. It stands to reason that they should be the first to leave the villa like this, Chen Yuan didn't expect that she was still here!

Chen Yuan was a little curious: "Miss Yangchun is still here?" I didn't see you in the morning, and I thought you were gone. ”

Bai Yutang followed Chen Yuan in, Zhao Yi was obviously a little panicked when she saw Bai Yutang, she recognized that this was the fast catcher who came to the inn with Yang Yi to find her, for fear that she would be recognized.

During this time, if there is any person who is the happiest in the entire Crescent Moon Villa, it is Zhao Yi. There are people here who eat and drink, and they don't have to do any work, although they are under the supervision of those officials all day long, but the little officials don't know that she is a princess, and they never embarrass her.

Zhao Yi felt that if things continued like this, it would be a good choice to go back by himself until the matter with the party and relatives was settled by Renzong.

She stayed in the villa, and all she heard was the worries and praises of the girls and the guys about Chen Yuan, and after listening to it a lot, she naturally felt that this shopkeeper Chen didn't seem to be as annoying as she thought. She had already let go of her hatred for Chen Yuan in her heart, and even the position of the eunuch was no longer reserved for Chen Yuan.

She just wanted to hide here for a while, and then go back to her palace to continue to be her own princess, at most, she would be beaten by Renzong, no big deal. Now that she suddenly saw Bai Yutang, she panicked for a moment, but then she thought that this fast catcher hadn't seen her before, as if she didn't need to be so nervous, if she showed her feet and he noticed that something was wrong, it would be too much of a loss.

At the moment, he calmed down, deliberately avoided Bai Yutang's gaze, and smiled at Chen Yuan: "How dare I go, shopkeeper, I still have fifty-three yuan less than you, if you just leave, according to your surname, you will chase after me to ask for money, right?" ”

Chen Yuan was in a good mood, so he naturally wouldn't take such sarcastic words to heart: "Haha, you are everyone's best girl, and after a few days of following those girls, this verbal effort has really made great progress!" Now you actually learn to turn around and curse people? ”

He smiled and sat down on the edge of the table, pulling the stool next to him to Bai Yutang.

Linghua knew that Chen Yuan and this Yangchun seemed to have a grudge in their previous life, for fear that the two of them would quarrel again, so she hurriedly got up and said: "Okay, you just say a few words, you are not at home these days, I feel very uncomfortable, and I am sorry to have Yangchun to accompany me to talk." ”

Chen Yuan snorted, looked at Zhao Yi and said: "I know, girl, let me tell you a word from my heart, I was really surprised to see you, now that I have such a thing, you look at the entire villa, there are half fewer people at once." People are like that, I can't ask others to do anything for me in my most difficult times, but thank you so much for those of you who are willing to stay with me through this difficult time! ”

Zhao Yi was stunned for a moment, she was really a little uncomfortable with Chen Yuan talking to her so seriously. This made her not know how to interface. It's better to think that you should find a reason to leave, although Bai Yutang didn't say anything now, but if you stay here for a long time, it's always bad to attract his attention.

Just as he was about to leave with an excuse, he heard Chen Yuan say, "Yutang, has that princess found it?" ”

Bai Yutang seemed to be a little absent-minded, and after Chen Yuan asked, he didn't understand: "Brother Chen, what are you asking?" ”

Chen Yuan smiled: "What do you want?" I wonder if that princess is whereabouts now? ”

Hearing this, Zhao Yi hurriedly pretended to be very casual and took the rag under the table: "I'll go and wipe the table." ”

Leaving the table, she didn't go too far, just listening to Bai Yutang's answer to Chen Yuan's question.

I only heard Bai Yutang ask rhetorically: "Why are you asking this?" ”

Chen Yuan sighed: "Let's be honest with you, the emperor may let me negotiate with the party and the Liao." ”

Bai Yutang didn't go in when he went to see Lu Yijian, although his duty was to accompany Chen Yuan, but there were some places where Chen Yuan could go in alone. Hearing Chen Yuan say this, Bai Yutang was taken aback: "Let you go?" No way? ”

Chen Yuan smiled bitterly: "Really." If there are no accidents, the brother may also be an official. ”

Bai Yutang nodded busily: "That's a good thing!" In the future, you, me, and Chasan, the three of us can take care of each other. ”

Chen Yuan sighed: "You don't know me, where do I want to be an official?" It's just that I don't have any other way now, I don't want to be locked up anymore, and I want to get my brothers out. ”

Bai Yutang smiled: "Anyway, I'm very happy to hear that you are going to be an official." Does this have anything to do with the princess? ”

Chen Yuandao: "Of course it matters. The party members are asking for kisses, and if the princess can't find it, I will have less bargaining chips to negotiate with them. You tell me, what does that princess look like? If she's pretty, I'll be able to sell her for a good price at the negotiating table. ”

There was only a bang behind him, and the basin on the washstand was touched, Chen Yuan looked back, and saw that Zhao Yi's figure was shaking, and he immediately said: "Girl, be careful, in fact, there have been no guests in the past two days, don't work so hard, go to sleep when you feel tired, it's not too early." ”

Bai Yutang's face was a little strange, and he looked at Chen Yuan and said, "Brother Chen, I haven't seen the princess either, and I haven't found it yet." I heard that it's okay, but let her know that you plan to sell her at the negotiation table, she must be very angry, Brother Chen, it's better not to say that again. ”

Chen Yuan propped his chin on his hand, thought about it and said, "That means she hasn't come back yet?" It's a bit of a hassle! Yutang, why do you say these royal princesses have such a temper? If this princess is taken away and eloped, if she comes back with a big belly, it will be troublesome. ”

Chen Yuan didn't notice at all that Zhao Yi behind him was already trembling, his hands were tightly pulling the rag, and there was an outburst of anger that made Zhao Yi's pink face turn iron-blue! She wants to kill Chen Yuan now, and she will kill it immediately!

Bai Yutang smiled: "Brother Chen, it's about the royal face, be cautious, be cautious." ”

Chen Yuan didn't care: "I'm just telling you, there are no outsiders here, and Yangchun won't say it, so it's impossible for the princess to know that I said this about her, right, Yangchun?" ”

Zhao Yi, who was behind him, didn't reply, and said viciously: "Don't worry, I will never go out to say it!" ”

Chen Yuan snorted and continued to think about it: "When the time comes, we must take care of the diplomatic relations between the two countries, as well as the face of the Great Song Dynasty, then the matter will be really difficult!" If Li Yuanhao feels that he has lost face, it will be really troublesome in the future, and he will not be able to fight! These royal princesses are so ignorant, how good it is to stay in the palace honestly and wait for me to use her as a condition to rescue my brothers, and I thank her! Da Song doesn't have to fight anymore, and the people thank her! You have to run around! ”

Zhao Yi threw the rag on the table: "I'm tired, go up and sleep." ”

In short, Chen Yuan has now come to the conclusion that except for the princess who is a little uncontrollable, he should be able to handle other things. As long as the princess can appear at the right time and don't make a mistake, he has a great chance of rescuing Tie Anli and the others.

It was really not early, and Chen Yuan felt that his stomach was already much better, and after shouting that Linghua had eaten two bowls of noodles and Bai Yutang, he went into the room and Linghua to make up for the homework that he didn't do at noon.

As for the negotiation between Song Qi and Yelu Nighulu, it was exactly the same as Chen Yuan's estimate. When Song Qi let Yelune Gollum know through a very tactful channel that the Song Dynasty was ready to provide a batch of military supplies to the party members, Yelu Nie Gollum did not show the slightest concession.

This time, he took a tougher attitude, bypassing Song Qi and writing directly to Renzong, reprimanding the Song Dynasty for betraying the original alliance and supporting the enemies of the Liao State.

Song Renzong looked at Yelu Neg's strongly-worded letter and smiled: "They now remember the covenant we once made!" ”
