The Son of Heaven sat on the dragon chair, facing the "ministers don't know" and "ministers are incompetent" of the Manchu Dynasty, and his heart was angry and frightened, and he was speechless. At this moment, there is no third path in front of him, he can only choose one of the two paths in front of him!

Either agree to Donglu's conditions, cut the land for peace, and compromise for perfection;

Either agree to Zeguo's conditions and lure the wolf into the house, and there will be endless troubles.

The ministers quarreled endlessly, and finally pushed the choice to Prime Minister Yu Chongqing. After all, this is Prime Minister Yu Cheng is the culprit of this matter, and now that the trouble has reached such an uncontrollable point, it is natural that the culprit has to bear all the blame.

Yu Chongqing was so angry that he vomited blood, but he couldn't.

If you knew this was the case, why bother in the first place?

Ji Junyang obviously reminded him that this Miss Wang and Miss Lin Jiashao, who has become Princess Rong, are handkerchiefs, and they are originally other people's land, so don't be too greedy.

But he didn't listen!

However, if you want to blame the Ji family, knowing that the consequences of this matter are so serious, why don't you persuade him a few more times? If you persuade more, maybe it won't end like this......

Yu Chongqing regretted that his intestines were blue, but he still deceived himself.

But at this time, Yu Chongqing grabbed a life-saving straw - a mysterious man in a black robe, gave him guidance, and promised to help him retreat from the enemy.

And the only condition of the other party is to hand over Murong Chong to him for disposal.

For such a "master" who suddenly appeared, Yu Chongqing was overjoyed and obeyed the other party's words.

The next day, he went to the fold, listed the various articles of Donglu and Zeguo for comparison, stated them in the court, and finally concluded with "the lesser of two evils", suggesting that the Son of Heaven choose to negotiate peace with Murong Chong.

At least, after ceding the three cities, the country will still be the country; But if Zeguo is allowed to borrow the way, the country may not be the country.

This sentence touched the Son of Heaven.

For the courtiers, changing the Son of Heaven is just a change of allegiance to the master, and there is little change; But for the Son of Heaven, changing a ruler means becoming a prisoner.

The difference is best known to those in their positions.

As a result, the Emperor of the Dynasty, who had always been indecisive, made a decisive decision for the first time, and directly decided to negotiate peace with Donglu despite the opposition of others in the DPRK and China. As for this matter, it was left to Prime Minister Yu Chongqing.

Yu Chongqing won the support of the emperor and was full of ambition, but he was also uneasy.

The mysterious master didn't tell him all the plans, only what to do next each time. This also caused Yu Chongqing to become more and more uneasy.

He didn't know who this man in black was and what he was going to do......

But now, he can only bite the bullet and stay on this thief ship to the end.

"When I see Murong Chong later, I can talk about it as much as I want. The other party's conditions are all counteroffered, and if the other party's attitude is too tough, then it is okay to make concessions. ”

Yu Chongqing thought about the instructions given to him by the man in black, and his heart was even more bottomless.

Regardless of any conditions, if the other party has a tough attitude, they will give in......

This, where does this put the dignity of the country!

However, the man in black swore to him: "Don't worry, with me, this contract can't be made." No matter how many conditions are discussed, it is just in vain. ”

The man in black is confident, and Yu Chongqing can only bite the bullet.

Sure enough, Murong Chong put forward a lot of demands on the grounds that Daiguo had been neglecting for too long, and even put forward a request to allow Donglu to mine in Daiguo's mines.

Yu Chongqing, who was not confused after the New Year, was so angry that he blew his beard and glared, but Murong Chong did not give in at all. Under the pressure of the other party's pressing step by step, Yu Chongqing retreated in defeat, dripping in cold sweat.

Because of his thoughts, in the end, Yu Chongqing was dizzy, and he didn't know how many conditions he agreed to to lose power and humiliate the country. Anyway, it can be seen from the corners of Murong Chong's raised mouth that this undefeated god of war in Donglu is finally satisfied.

The terms have been negotiated, and as long as a simple ceremony is held outside the Assassin's Mansion to greet the heavens, and the seals of the two countries are sealed, the contract will be considered effective.

Yu Chongqing was dying and struggling, saying that he was tired today, and he would wait for tomorrow to burn incense and bathe, and tell heaven and earth to sign the contract.

Murong Chong naturally rejected him without hesitation.

"Yu Xiang, there are many dreams at night, and I am afraid that there will be variables. Wouldn't it be better to strike while the iron is hot, sign this contract, and then go back to a solid sleep? ”

Yu Chongqing was still struggling, but Murong Chong directly intercepted his words: "Yu Xiang, this king's newlywed Yan'er led the army to go out, and he missed his wife at home for a few months. Please also be considerate of Yu Xiang. ”

After saying that, he couldn't help but pick up, to be precise, Yu Chongqing, and walked towards the terrace outside the Assassin's Mansion.

Yu Chongqing is a civil official, and he is old, how can he beat Murong Chong's strength? He could only follow Murong Chong to the terrace in resignation, and set up in front of the case that had been prepared for a long time, praying in his heart that the man in black would speak and count, so that this contract could not be signed. Otherwise, he will become a sinner on behalf of the kingdom and be spit on by all people!

Wash your hands, wipe them, burn incense, and pray.

Write neatly written contracts, put them in front of the incense burner, and tell heaven and earth that they will never be betrayed.

Pick up the dagger, cut your fingers, and pour blood into the wine to show your sincerity.

After doing all this, Murong Chong handed the dagger to Yu Chongqing.

Tremblingly took the dagger, hesitating to delay time, but the man in black never showed up. Under Murong Chong's patient "urging", Yu Chongqing's heart was like ashes, and he resigned himself to doing the same action as Murong Chong.

After the ceremony.

"Yu Xiang, please."

Murong Chong stretched out his hand and made a "please" gesture, signaling Yu Chongqing to step forward first and sign his name and seal on the contract.

"Lord Wang, please."

Yu Chongqing gave up his hand and invited Murong Chong to step forward together.

Murong Chong didn't push back, he took the lead in stepping on the steps, glanced at Yu Chongqing, who had a complicated and gray face, and took the lead in writing.

Yu Chongqing was no longer hopeful, but something unexpected happened to him!

At the moment when Murong Chong lifted the pen, Yu Chongqing obviously saw Murong Chong's figure shaking unsteadily. Although the other party recovered quickly, Yu Chongqing believed that he was not wrong.

Men in black, shot?

Yu Chongqing's heart became excited.

On the contrary, Murong Chong felt that his vision was blurry, shaking as if he had been separated by a layer of water waves. At the same time, the sense of hearing is also chaotic and ethereal, and the whole person seems to be out of strength, without strength.

"Lord Wang!"

He heard the exclamations of his men around him.

A dark shadow swooped down on him, and he couldn't see who it was.

It seems that there is also a whistling sound that is not really heard, and the wind is coming.

It was Xu Zhan who was preparing to escort him, and the unreal sound of breaking the wind was the two quenched sleeve arrows shot by the man in black from a hidden angle.

"Damn, you dare to plot against the prince!"

Before falling into darkness, this was the last word Murong Chong heard—a roar from Xu Zhan.
