Emperor Chongzhen, who was sitting on the throne, became angrier and angrier the more he talked. Wang Zhongying, the cabinet minister who had just spoken and was refuted by Emperor Chongzhen, stood up again.

At this moment, he can't care about the face of the court. In the face of Emperor Chongzhen's anger, he said bluntly......

"Please calm your anger, the old minister has something to say, I hope Your Majesty can consider it carefully......"

"Negotiating with the Tiger and Leopard Army, the face of His Majesty and the entire imperial court will indeed be hit."

"However, if we don't negotiate with the Haw Par Army, let the Haw Par Army attack directly outside the capital, and then negotiate with the Haw Par Army. In that way, the court and His Majesty will have more damaged face. Not only that, but in the negotiations, the price paid by the imperial court will also be greater......"

"Lao Chen hopes that His Majesty can understand that after losing tens of thousands of elites on the front line, in addition to garrisoning the border passes, defending the border army of the Houjin cavalry. In the hands of the imperial court, there is no strength to compete with the Tiger and Leopard Army......"

"Therefore, as long as His Majesty does not want to be the king of the Ming Dynasty and sees that the capital is broken by the Tiger and Leopard Army, then there is only one way to negotiate with the Tiger and Leopard Army and temporarily compromise with the Tiger and Leopard Army......

"Not only that, but the old minister also wants His Majesty to understand that the sooner we have a calm relationship with the Tiger and Par Army, the less price the court will have to pay...... Therefore, now is definitely the most favorable time for the imperial court to negotiate with the Haw Par Army......"

After Cabinet Minister Wang Zhongying finished speaking, several other cabinet ministers who also recognized the shape of the cabinet said, as if they had discussed it, and said at the same time: "The ministers seconded the proposal." Please for the future of the Ming Dynasty. Carefully consider this mention yì ......"

Minister's words. It's like a basin of cold water, which suddenly puts the so-called self-esteem, confidence, and expectation in Chongzhen's heart...... All of them are poured out. Then, I had to face reality again.

The entire hall also fell silent at this moment......

Just when all the ministers said that their eyes were focused on Chongzhen, whose face was constantly changing. While waiting for Chongzhen's reply. An exclamation full of unwillingness shouted directly from Chongzhen's mouth.

"I'm not reconciled...... As the emperor of the Ming Dynasty, I am really unwilling to bow my head to the rebellious ministers and thieves......"

After hearing Chongzhen's unwilling roar, a smile unexpectedly appeared on the faces of the ministers.

Because, Chongzhen's roar had already told them, and Emperor Chongzhen had already agreed to the request to negotiate with the Tiger and Leopard Army in his heart. It's just that. In Chongzhen's heart, he was still unwilling......

Case. As long as Emperor Chongzhen's unwillingness is solved, all problems will be solved.

Faced with this situation, the old cabinet chief assistant directly stood up. Emperor Chongzhen was full of doubts, expectations, and unwillingness...... Under the gaze of complicated eyes, he replied in his old voice.

"Your Majesty, the old minister thinks that Lord Wang's analysis just now is very good...... The sooner the negotiations with the Tiger and Par Army take place, the less the court will have to pay. In this case, after this military confrontation is over, the confidence and strength that the imperial court uses to restore its vitality will become more ......."

"As far as Lao Chen knows, in the imperial court's attack on Shanxi and Shaanxi provinces, the grenades created by the imperial court imitating the tiger and leopard army played a very important role on the battlefield. Otherwise, in the entire attack, the losses of the imperial court will become even greater. ”

It can be seen that the key to the fact that the Haw Par Army has been able to win victory after victory on the battlefield is that the various firearms equipped by the Haw Par Army are very sharp. In terms of power, it far surpasses the firearms we are equipped with. ”

"In this case, the imperial court can use these imitation grenades and flintlock muskets to assemble the same new firearms army as the Haw Par Army."

"Lao Chen can say with certainty that with the support of the entire Ming Dynasty, the new firearms army of the imperial court components must far surpass the firearms ......army of the Tiger and Leopard Army, which is only supported by Shanxi and Shaanxi provinces, in terms of combat effectiveness."

"In addition to that, we can also reform the Tuntian law and tax reform of the Haw Par Army in Shanxi and Shaanxi provinces after the negotiations are concluded...... All policies and methods that are beneficial to the Ming Dynasty are all comprehensively promoted in other provinces of the Ming Dynasty. ”

Lao Chen believed that under the influence of these policies, at the latest, in two years at the latest, the tax revenue of the imperial court would be greatly increased as in the two provinces of Shanxi and Shaanxi. As long as the imperial court has silver, a series of problems faced by the imperial court will be easily solved......"

Under the analysis of the cabinet chief assistant one by one, the changing expression on Chongzhen's face finally became relaxed.

Not only that, Chongzhen, whose whole body was shrouded in despair, unexpectedly appeared with confidence and longing for the future again.

After the cabinet chief assistant finished speaking, Emperor Chongzhen, who had already made up his mind in his heart, directly opened his mouth and made an order.

"In that case, I agree to negotiate with the Haw Par Army......"

"As for the specific details of the negotiations and the candidates for the negotiations, the cabinet will immediately come up with a statement and hand it over to me for review."

In the military camp of the Northern Expeditionary Army, which is less than 100 miles away from the capital, Wang Zhongying, a cabinet minister who has just seen the powerful military might of the Northern Expeditionary Army and has not yet reacted from the shock, was directly brought into the military tent of the Wei Zheng Office.

Wei Zheng, who has strong military strength in his hands to support and holds the hole card of tens of thousands of officers and military prisoners, is not worried about the other party taking the initiative in negotiations.

From the moment Wang Zhongying sat directly opposite him, Wei Zheng looked at the cabinet minister who had a relationship with him and took the initiative to ask the court to come to negotiate with him.

I want to see what is different about this Wang Zhongying, who dares to take the initiative to take over the negotiation task that other ministers of the court dare not take, and comes to the military camp of the Northern Army to negotiate with himself.

While Wei Zheng carefully observed Wang Zhongying, Wang Zhongying, who slowly reacted from the shock, also began to carefully observe Wei Zheng, who was almost a little scary in front of him, and wanted to see if Wei Zheng, who was holding a heavy army, really had three heads and six arms.

Just when the two were observing each other, they came to the military camp of the Northern Army a few days ago and made a lot of nonsense in front of Wei Zheng many times. I don't know if I want to show myself in front of the cabinet ministers, or because I have Wang Zhongying to rely on, I once again revealed the arrogance of a few days ago, and I don't take a bandit like Wei Zheng in my eyes.

Wei Zheng and Wang Zhongying, who were the main negotiators, had not yet spoken, and this Zheng Sanpin waiter, who was not qualified to speak at all, actually took the first step and pointed at Wei Zheng and scolded loudly......

"Wei Zheng, you are bold...... Sitting in front of you are the ministers of the Imperial Court. You, the governor of Shanxi, did not bow when you saw Shangguan, which is simply a crime. ”

After saying this, not only Wei Zheng's face, but also Wang Zhongying's face who was sitting in front of him also became gloomy.

In the eyes of the waiter of the Ministry of Rites, it must have been what he had just said in Wang Zhongying's heart, which made Wang Zhongying dissatisfied with what Wei Zheng did in front of him.

Just when the waiter of the Ministry of Rites began to be complacent about what he had just said. A look full of disgust flashed directly across Wei Zheng's face. Then, pointing to the waiter of the Ministry of Rites in front of him, who disgusted him very much, he asked Wang Zhongying rhetorically.

"Lord Wang, is this the so-called minister of the imperial court? I don't understand the rules at all. ”

"In addition, Ben Shuai almost forgot one thing, this person did the following things many times before you came, Lord Wang, and blocked and sabotaged the negotiations between Ben Shuai and the imperial court......

"In order to let today's negotiations go smoothly, and also to let Ben Shuai see the sincerity of the imperial court. Ben Shuai hoped that the imperial court would immediately dismiss him and punish him directly. Otherwise, before seeing the sincerity of the imperial court, Ben Shuai refused to negotiate with the imperial court. ”

Hearing this, the waiter of the Ministry of Rites, who had a smug expression just now, finally felt a different atmosphere in the military tent.

At the same time that his face changed greatly, he subconsciously knelt on the ground, and begged for mercy loudly at Wang Zhongying in front of him: "My lord, you are wronged...... There was absolutely no offense in the lower ranks, nor did it sabotage the negotiations between the imperial court and the Haw Par Army. Please be aware ......"

After taking a deep look at the waiter of the Ministry of Rites who knelt on the ground in front of him, Wang Zhongying's face did not show the slightest pity and reluctance.

He coldly commanded: "You should ask for someone not to be the official, but to be the commander in front of you...... As long as Wei Dashuai agrees to take your life, you don't have to die......"

Hearing this, the face of the waiter of the Ministry of Rites directly turned pale.

Just when he was ready to be cheeky and kowtow to Wei Zheng and beg for mercy in order to survive. Wei Zheng had already taken the lead and waved his hand and said......

"You don't have to kowtow, Ben Shuai can't stand your big gift...... You know, you were sent by the imperial court to represent the imperial court. Ben Shuai is just a rebellious minister and thief in your mouth, how can a rebellious minister and thief accept such a big gift from you......"

After speaking, Wei Zheng didn't care about the other party's increasingly pale face, and continued......

"However, before you die, Ben Shuai will give you a word. No matter what time you are, you must see the shape clearly, don't be a frog at the bottom of the well, and don't be self-righteous......"

Facing Wei Zheng's words, Wang Zhongying's eyes when he looked at the waiter of the Ministry of Rites were already invisible, containing a trace of murderous intent. Because, the waiter of the Ministry of Rites in front of him not only did not help himself, but caused himself a big trouble.

Before the negotiations really began, he was taught a lesson by the front guard.

The four words 'see the shape clearly' are not only said to the attendants of the Ministry of Rites around him, but also to himself......

Let yourself in the next negotiations, you must recognize the form, do not make meaningless resistance, and do not open your mouth.

After figuring out this qiē, Wang Zhongying, who had no pity for the waiter in front of him, already had a trace of hatred for him at this moment.

said to the Ouchi guards who were following him, with a murderous face.

"Before the official left Beijing, the emperor gave me the sword of Shang Fang, and gave the official the right to make a decision on the spot, and now the official ordered, the servant of the Ministry of Rites destroyed the peace of the imperial court and the tiger and leopard army, and according to the emperor's holy decree, immediately shelved it and took it down, and beheaded ......"
