Sun Chengzong's news has let the Ming monarchs know what to do, the cannon outside the city made them quickly make a decision, this time did not even let the eunuchs of the inner court or the apocalypse himself come forward, the new cabinet scholar Yang Lian proposed to negotiate peace, and agreed with Sun Chengzong's letter, what the Xuzhou thief wanted and promised him, now when it matters is to let them go first, otherwise this situation is really impossible to clean up.

When he got up to make a statement, Yang Lian's face was full of sadness, Wei Zhongxian and the party close to him were a little ashamed, at this time, these rigid Qingliu wind bones are always useful, the Emperor of the Apocalypse has the strength to give an order, and ordered Zhao Nanxing to negotiate peace, when the order is given, the Emperor of the Apocalypse is also red, holding back tears and not shedding, there are more than two hundred years of Ming, they have never encountered such a situation, in their hearts, this is almost the same as the death of the country.

But there is something that everyone can't say in their hearts, Ming takes the Song Dynasty as a reference, lest they repeat the mistakes of the past, and at this moment, they suddenly understand the situation of the monarchs and ministers in the Northern Song Dynasty and the Southern Song Dynasty, no matter how he lost power and humiliated the country, no matter how he lowered his voice, as long as he can survive, as long as he can maintain, then he must continue, as long as he can continue, then there is a chance to change again, if he can't continue, then there is nothing.

As long as Your Majesty works hard and the ministers work loyally, I will definitely be able to destroy this thief!" After the decision to negotiate peace was issued, Zuo Guangdou said in a deep voice that everyone had no meaning to these words.

What kind of luck can be tolerated in the military affairs, the Xuzhou thief army is a big country with a small number of soldiers, more than 20,000 soldiers and horses all the way to the city of Beijing, and all the reinforcements are defeated, calmly persecuted, they do not take this opportunity to fight the Beijing division, Ding revolution, but anxious to negotiate peace, indicating that these people are short-sighted, only looking at the small profits, but I don't know that there will be no such a good opportunity next time

Next time, Daming already knows how strong the Xuzhou thief is, how can he arrange it so carelessly, and next time, Daming will definitely work hard to govern the country after this great difficulty, how can it be so decadent, next time, maybe this Xuzhou thief has long lost his strength because of his addiction to wealth and enjoyment, and will even be divided and disintegrated by the high-ranking officials of the imperial court.

Since you missed such a good opportunity, there will be no more, although the apocalypse is still grieved and sad, but the eunuchs and ministers who have a clear brain have already thought clearly, endure the humiliation for a while, and have a chance to rise again, the thieves strive for peace talks this time, which means that the Ming Dynasty's qi is not exhausted, and it means that the spirits of the ancestors and ancestors of the Ming Dynasty are still blessing the Ming Dynasty.

"The Ming Dynasty paid two million taels of military expenses to Xuzhou, and if the silver money was insufficient, it could be replaced by grain, copper and lead."

"Daming opened Tianjin Port, Dengzhou Port, Lushun Port, and Haizhou Port as treaty ports, and the port can be under the jurisdiction of the government, but the port and the surrounding 30 miles shall not garrison troops, and Xuzhou shall set up ports in Laizhou Mansion and Qingzhou Mansion in Shandong, and the government shall not interfere."

"The officials of the prefectures and counties in the east of the Ming Dynasty and the prefectures and counties in the north of the Jiangbei Province and the government office of the Guide Prefecture in Henan can be retained, but they shall not garrison the army, shall not levy taxes and levies, and the soldiers and horses of the Ming Dynasty shall not cross the border, and Xuzhou shall not enter the vicinity of the Fengyang Imperial Mausoleum, maintain the smooth flow of transportation, and maintain the ...... of Huai salt and salt tax."

"The Ming Dynasty paid 5,000 artisan households to Xuzhou, and when they migrated, they were not allowed to detain their families, they were not allowed to deduct rations, and they were not allowed to impersonate hungry criminals."

"Daming Tianjin Port, Dengzhou Port Shipyard Shipwright Compensation to Xuzhou"

"The Ming Dynasty shall not obstruct Xuzhou's trade routes to the border through Henan and Shanxi, and shall not levy taxes on gold, and if there is any infringement loss, it will be used to tear up the contract."

"Xuzhou goods to Shandong, South Zhili, Jiangbei prefectures and counties, Henan Guide Mansion outside the place, Daming shall not levy taxes, Xuzhou merchants can buy population materials in Daming and overseas, Daming shall not hinder"

"Daming and Xuzhou set up charge d'affaires in Cangzhou, Hejian Prefecture and Yangzhou City, the capital of Yangzhou in Nanzhili, to coordinate and discuss in case of trouble."

"Xuzhou merchants are outside, and the terroir is different, and there are many conflicts...... Emperor Ming took pity on him and it was not easy to make a living...... The elders of Xuzhou Township are specially ordered to be under the control of various localities and to try cases in parallel with the state capitals"

The initial conditions were very general, nothing more than to ensure Zhao Jiajun's control over Shandong and Nanzhili Jiangbei, as well as the right to use several ports in the Ming Dynasty, but when it came to specific discussions, they had to be discussed in detail.

When the Ming court agreed to negotiate peace, Zhao Nanxing, the secretary of the Ministry of Shangshu and several ministers who were selected to negotiate peace, wanted to repent, and wanted to set off public opinion in Beijing, but this time the Emperor of the Apocalypse directly moved the forbidden army, more than a dozen imperial histories were imprisoned, and several people were killed on the same day.

And hiding at home and saying that he couldn't get sick was directly found by the factory guard, and used a knife to threaten to negotiate peace, and said it very clearly, if you go, your family is safe, if you don't go, you will be in prison waiting for conviction, and you can't do any tricks if you go, you think about the family in the hands of the factory guard.

Zhao Nanxing, the secretary of the ministry, and several of his comrades left the Beijing division in frustration, on the day they left, Sun Chengzong entered the capital under the escort of hundreds of elite horsemen, the Son of Heaven had already issued an order a day in advance, and the courtiers carried out the court push without objection, Sun Chengzong was the first assistant of the Ming Cabinet, and violated the conventional management of the military affairs, and the Emperor of the Apocalypse could not trust others.

If there is anything surprising in this Ming Dynasty and the team, that is, the new military department Shangshu Wang Zaijin, he was sentenced to prison because of the defeat of the army, when the Zhao family soldiers came to the city of Beijing, Wang Zaijin's defeat does not seem to be so difficult to accept, more importantly, Wang Zaijin has experience with Xuzhou thieves, and the current situation, the errand of the military department is a black pot gathering, who will care who may be unlucky next, for this consideration, Wang Zaijin is actually promoted than before the defeat.

Everyone knows that the new first assistant Sun Chengzong had a conflict with Wang Zaijin when he supervised Liaodong, and directly impeached Wang Zaijin to remove him from office, but at this time, Sun Chengzong did not say much, and recognized this resignation, and some people said that Sun Ge Lao led troops into Beijing to help, holding heavy troops, as the emperor's teacher, worshiping as the first assistant, and managing the affairs of the army, compared with the power of Zhang Jiangling and Zhang Juzhengdu, it was no worse, and there should be a discordant Wang Zaijin to contain it.

But what is surprising is that after Wang Zaijin was released from prison and promoted, he took the initiative to ask to join the peace mission, he said very clearly, he has dealt with Xuzhou thieves, he is experienced, and he has really seen the strength of Xuzhou thieves, and he knows how to grasp the balance when talking about peace, so as not to cause a big disaster again, and everyone has no opinion on his request, he is willing to carry the black pot, what else can others say.

Although Zhao Nanxing, the secretary of the ministry, knew that his general trend had gone, he was still worried before the peace, for fear that the lion of the Zhao family army would open his mouth, the more the conditions for losing power and humiliating the country were promised, the more his reputation would be ruined, and now Zhao Nanxing no longer expects any officialdom to be rich and noble, only to return to his hometown peacefully, and only to have a good reputation in the history books of Fang Zhi after death, but if he agrees too much, then these are simply impossible.

The ministers and eunuchs of the mission were still surprised by the age of Zhao Jin and his partners, but no one cared too much, the situation was already like this, and they still cared about how old and young they were, what really surprised them was the conditions in Xuzhou, although there were many more details than beforehand, but these were really nothing.

Two million taels is not a small amount, but it is very easy to make up, and Xuzhou is also "considerate" willing to accept grain, copper and lead, etc., which does not even need to move the internal treasury and the treasury, directly in this year's grain allocation, as for those ports, in addition to the Dengzhou military port currently to supply the remnants of Dongjiang Town and Liao Town, the real important thing here in Tianjin is the canal wharf, the harbor is some distance from the city, more for private trade, the Port of Arthur is not even a port, and under the coercion of the Jianzhou Tartars, The port of Haizhou does not even exist on official paperwork.

These ports, if you want to, just take them, say that they are a threat to Gyeonggi, but from Xuzhou to Tianjin, it is thousands of miles away, how can it be from the sea, even if the spy eyes and ears sneak in, is it less now? In several other places, only Dengzhou Military Port is more difficult to do, without the support of Dengzhou, the remnants of Dongjiang Town and Liao Town may be difficult to hold onto, but now the Jingshi is worried about self-preservation, who can take care of the remnants of Liao Town, everyone does not expect to rely on them to recover the entire territory of Liaodong.

As for the ports set up in Laizhou and Qingzhou in Shandong, the places near the sea are all barren counties, there is no grain production, and the population is not very large.

The requirement of 5,000 craftsmen and shipyard shipwrights, it doesn't matter, craftsmen are like slaves, there are escapes every year, and the things produced are not usable, and they can't compare to those cattle and horses, since Xuzhou wants, then give them, as for what trade routes and gold taxation and the like, everyone even has a little contempt, in the end, it is a vulgar country thief who has never seen the world, how can these things be mentioned, who dares to tax your Xuzhou commercial goods and gold now?

As for Shandong, Nanzhili and Henan, Zhao Jiajun's approach made the envoys breathe a sigh of relief, everyone understands that this is a land cut, but the officials can keep it, that is, the dignity of the Ming system is still there, and you can find a reason to cover up the past without garrisoning troops or taxes, and this black pot can be less heavy, and you can also find a reason to shirk it afterwards.

All these conditions are aggravating the judgment of the envoys, that is, this group of fierce Xuzhou thieves is actually a short-sighted, greedy and unambitious person, they are lucky to have today's situation, but it will definitely not last long.
