Chapter 498: Backsliding
Lu Xun thought about it all night and decided to accept Wei Ba's conditions. He invited Fei Yi and told Fei Yi of his decision. Fei Yi was very surprised, although Wei Ba swore that Lu Xun would definitely agree, but Fei Yi refused to believe it. Cessing such a big thing as a county, will Lu Xun take matters into his own hands? He is not afraid that Sun Quan will turn his face and cut him down? You must know that if it weren't for the tense war in Wuling this time, he would still be living in Wuchang now.
"You heard me right, I agreed." Lu Xun's face was pale, and there were a few dazzling white hairs in his neatly combed bun, shining in the light. "I want to ask Fei Jun to go to the mountain immediately and discuss the details with Wei Shizhong."
Fei Yi agreed without thinking.
"Zhongshan, you and Fei Jun will go on a trip together." Lu Xun called Lu Lan, who was standing aside, and looked at him deeply: "Remember, you must be calm and don't be rash." ”
Lu Lan nodded gloomily.
Lu Xun immediately discussed the general conditions with Fei Yi, and he had already discussed these with Lu Lan, but now he just talked to Fei Yi again. Fei Yi listened to them one by one and didn't say anything. The two then set off. As soon as they arrived at the bottom of the mountain and explained their intentions, Wei Xing walked out of it, and after listening to Fei Yi's words, he glanced at Lu Lan and pouted: "My young master asked me to take a look first, what about the contract?" ”
Fei Yi was stunned for a moment, but he didn't refute, but looked at Lu Lan. Lu Lan was very angry: "Who are you, can you represent Wei Shizhong?" ”
"I'm his personal guard, and I can only represent a little within the scope of his authority." Wei Xing smiled and pinched the tip of his little finger and gestured.
"Nonsense, this is a big deal in the negotiations between the two countries. How do you get a personal guard to do it for you? Although Lu Lan had been controlling his emotions, he was still angered by Wei Ba's negligence. Let Wei Ba come, if you want to talk, I can only talk to him himself, not with a personal guard. ”
"Then you wait, I'll go and ask for instructions." Wei Xing shrugged indifferently and slowly went back. Fei Yi hurriedly grabbed him and gave Lu Lan a look: "Lu Jun, the mountain is so high, it takes half a day to come and go." Let's not delay. Since Wei Shizhong sent him. Naturally, he can call the shots. Just let him take a look. ”
Lu Lan was so angry that she smoked, but she also knew that Fei Yi was right. Wei Xing is obviously delaying time, and what they lack most is time, waiting for half a day. Accidents can happen. He had to pull out his contract. Hate stuffed to Wei Xing. Wei Xing took it. Slowly open it, read it one by one, and ask two questions from time to time. Although Lu Lan was very angry, she could only answer them one by one. After Wei Xing finished reading it, he pondered for a long time, and suddenly said: "This contract is okay, but my young master still needs to add one." ”
"Add one?" Lu Lan's eyes narrowed: "It's already too much for you to ask for Wuling, what conditions do you want?" ”
"You're not convinced?" Wei Xing also widened his eyes, and said angrily: "If you don't accept it, then don't talk about it, we'll see you on the battlefield, and you can speak with your own knife." ”
"I'm afraid of you." Lu Lan was really angry, and he couldn't wait to pull out his knife and cut Wei Xing. Fei Yi hurriedly dragged him down, so that he could calm down his anger. "Wei Xing, tell me quickly, what else does Wei Shizhong want?"
"It's very simple, we robbed Pan Jun's daughter Pan Ziyu in Yiyuan before, and after a period of getting along, Miss Pan Ziyu and our Zhao Zhonglang are in love. Zhao Zhonglang didn't want Miss Pan to be a concubine as a captive, he wanted to marry Miss Pan as his wife, and hoped that Pan Jun would agree to this family business. Wei Xing looked at Lu Lan for a long time: "So Wei Shizhong hopes to add this clause to the contract." With General Lu as a testimony on behalf of King Wu, even if Pan Jun disagrees with this family matter, he can't object to it. ”
"!" Lu Lan was furious: "What kind of condition is this?" Marriage is a private matter, how can it be mixed with state affairs? ”
"This is the condition of the young master of my family, can you call the shots, if you can't make the decisions, go back and ask General Lu to talk about it." After Wei Xing finished speaking, he brushed his sleeves and left, leaving Lu Lan and Fei Yi under the mountain. Lu Lan jumped like thunder and scolded, but he was helpless. Under Fei Yi's persuasion, he had to return to the camp.
Lu Xun just lay down, tossing and turning on the couch and couldn't sleep. He hadn't slept all night, and although he was so tired that he couldn't open his eyelids, he couldn't sleep. Just when he was in pain, Lu Lan came back. After listening to Lu Lan's relay, Lu Xun sighed: "Zhongshan, what did I tell you?" ”
Lu Lan was at a loss for a moment, not knowing what Lu Xun said.
"I said to you, you have to be calm, don't be rash, why can't you listen? Fei Yi doesn't know my intentions, you still don't know? Do we have the capital to negotiate at this moment? Everything is aimed at taking Pan Jun's army out first, and the rest will be talked about later. Don't you know that any treaty is a dead letter? ”
Lu Lan suddenly realized.
"Go, talk to him again." Lu Xun waved his hand angrily: "When the time comes, Pan Jun's refusal to agree is also Pan Jun's business, what does it have to do with me." ”
Lu Lan was reprimanded by Lu Xun for a few words, and returned to the bottom of the mountain depressed, asking to see him again. After a long while, Wei Xing came out with his hands behind his back again, looking at Fei Yi, and then at Lu Lan: "General Lu agreed?" ”
"Promised." Lu Lan said angrily, scolding in her heart, Zhuzi, let you be arrogant, do you really think you can get Wuling? When we take Pan Jun out, we'll see you on the battlefield again.
"I was so angry with you just now, and there is one condition that I haven't said." Wei Xingluo said generously: "The young master of my family said that since the Han and Wu alliances, then the women of our first emperor cannot stay in the Wu Kingdom. Should you send Mrs. Sun to Chengdu? We Bixia miss Mrs. Sun very much. ”
Lu Lan was dumbfounded and looked at Wei Xing in disbelief. That's right, Lu Xun said that as long as Pan Jun can be taken out, any conditions can be agreed, because anyway, these conditions will be empty in the future, and Wu will definitely raise an army again and regain control of Wuling. But Wei Ba's desire to welcome back Mrs. Sun was a bit outrageous, far from what he dared to agree casually.
Wei Xing didn't talk nonsense with him much, and sent him back directly.
After hearing Lu Lan's return, Lu Xun was so shocked that he didn't say anything for a long time. Pan Ziyu's matter is a private matter, it is only related to Pan Jun himself, and when the time comes, he will regret it, and Lu Xun can afford to ask himself. But Mrs. Sun's matter is a state affair, and Lu Xun has to be cautious. In the future, Wei Ba will have a contract in his hand, once it is publicized, what will Sun Quan's reaction be?
Lu Xun was tossed by this question for most of the night, zuihou made a decision, while asking Fei Yi to tell Wei Ba, this condition is too wide, far from me can agree, I can only agree to it, zuihou counts, I can't guarantee it, while flying to report to Sun Quan, although it is definitely too late, but at least it may make Sun Quan have a psychological preparation, and when the time comes, he will not be unable to accept it all at once.
Lu Lan came to the bottom of the mountain again, and Wei Xing was waiting. Wei Xing generously agreed to Lu Xun's reply. The two sides began to negotiate, and Wei Xing pulled out some unacceptable conditions from time to time, which made Lu Lan's heart tremble and it was difficult to make decisions, so he had to repay Lu Xun. The place where they negotiated was five miles away from Lu Xun's camp, and it took more than half an hour to come and go, although it was not very far, but Wei Xing let Lu Lan run back and forth seven or eight times in two days, not only Lu Lan was crazy, but even Fei Yi, who was running errands behind, couldn't bear it.
As for Lu Xun, he was even more dragged to exhaustion. He didn't sleep for two days and two nights, and the gray hair on his head increased significantly.
Two days later, they finally reached a rough agreement, Pan Jun's army laid down all their weapons and baggage, and left empty-handed, and the Wu army withdrew from Wuling, so that they could take enough military rations to leave Wuling, and so on. After Wei Xing negotiated, he went up the mountain to meet Wei Ba with the draft haode contract. Wei Xing ignored Lu Lan's strong objection and put on a blindfold used by a donkey when he was grinding, saying that it was to prevent him from peeping at him with the wisdom of negotiation, which made Lu Lan almost vomit blood in anger.
After reading the draft treaty, Wei Ba was furious: "You refuse to send Mrs. Sun back? ”
Lu Lan swallowed his anger and said: "It's a big matter, my general can't be the master, so he can only put it on hold for the time being, this is all agreed in advance, doesn't Wei Shizhong know?" ”
Wei Ba turned around and glared at Wei Xing angrily: "Put it on hold for the time being? Didn't you say they said yes? ”
Wei Xing shrunk his neck and said innocently: "Young master, it may be me...... Misheard. ”
"Rubbish!" Wei Ba tore the draft contract in his hand to shreds, and threw it away, and the shredded paper was blown by the mountain wind, like a flock of butterflies. Wei Ba waved his hand: "I went out this time to welcome back Mrs. Sun on the order of Bixia." If this condition is not agreed, then there is no need to talk about it. Lu Zhongshan, please go back, we'll see you on the battlefield, if you don't want to send it back, I'll go to Wu County to greet you. ”
"You ......" Seeing that the contract was torn to pieces by Wei Ba, two days of hard work came to naught, but the culprit Wei Xing looked indifferent, Lu Lan was really speechless. He endured it so that he didn't scold, looked at Fei Yi directly, gritted his teeth and said, "Fei Jun, are you Han monarchs and ministers so shameless?" ”
Fei Yi smacked his lips and said embarrassedly: "Lu Jun, don't worry, don't worry, I'll discuss with him again, how about it?" ”
"Humph!" Lu Lan snorted and ignored it. Fei Yi hurriedly chased after Wei Ba. He turned a corner, Wei Bazheng was standing there with a smile, and when he saw him, he asked anxiously, "How is Lu Xun?" ”
Fei Yi smiled slightly: "I haven't slept well for two days and two nights, I guess he's going crazy." ”
"It's not okay to be crazy, you have to make him really crazy." Wei Ba groaned: "Fei Jun, I still have to work hard for you, you go back and talk to Lu Xun in person, you must make him collapse." ”
Fei Yi pondered for a moment: "I'm fine." When are you ready to act? ”
Wei Ba glanced at him and shrugged, "I don't know." Let's act when the opportunity comes, as soon as the fighter plane appears, I will naturally do it, and I can't say for sure now. ”
Fei Yi glared at Wei Ba back, pointed his finger at him, and scolded with a smile: "Ziyu, you wait, after returning to Chengdu, I will tell your father all these things, and see how he cleans you up then." ”
Wei Ba smiled: "Fei Jun, I'm doing this for state affairs, you can't interfere with the public with your own interests." (To be continued......)
