Chapter 295: Peace Talks Begin
But this voice was erratic, and after saying so many words, Xiao Dingshan couldn't lock the direction of that person, let alone his location?
"Who are you? If you have a kind, you will come out and meet! Xiao Dingshan said angrily.
"A secret guard, you don't need to see people, you don't need to have a kind, you just need to be able to save the life of your master. General Xiao, go back and discuss when to release people, if you don't see the two Lin Gongzi, your life won't last long. ”
Xiao Dingshan was a little nervous, he couldn't find out where this person was hiding until now, which meant that he was not his opponent, and he could even die under this person at any time, because he didn't know where that person was, so there was no way to guard against it, no matter how powerful he was, it was impossible to prevent his own blind spots.
Xiao Dingshan searched around, and after no result, he came back to Lin Moran and said, "This is your person?" Protect yours? ”
"It's my people, protecting me. Anyone who wants to attack me, he will not be soft. Lin Moran smiled calmly.
Xiao Dingshan was furious in his heart, and was about to test whether this person could really attack him desperately, but he heard the man suddenly say: "There is someone outside, if General Xiao doesn't want to be discovered, let's leave quickly." When someone finds out that everyone outside is stunned, the whole palace will be in chaos, and you will be very dangerous. ”
Xiao Dingshan gritted his teeth, but in the end, he didn't dare to gamble with his life and ran away from behind.
Hearing the footsteps walking away, Lin Moran breathed a sigh of relief and said: "I also inhaled a little bit of the drug, I don't know if it will affect my body, if Xiao Dingshan wants to do it just now, I really can't be sure that I will retreat!" ”
"Don't worry, even if your subordinates fight to the death, they will protect your master's safety." Mu Feng said solemnly.
Lin Moran smiled comfortingly and said, "I know, fortunately with you, I didn't panic, Mu Feng, thank you!" ”
Someone found the stunned palace people, there was a commotion outside, Mu Feng hurriedly hid in the dark again, Lin Moran screamed, the people outside were attracted by the shout, and when they came in, they saw Lin Moran being embraced by agarwood and cloves, sitting there steadily, they were a little relieved.
Soon, Li Huaifeng rushed over and personally sent Lin Moran back to the East Palace, and then thoroughly investigated the palace, but at this time, Xiao Dingshan had already returned to the banquet, and he couldn't find him at all for a while. Li Huaifeng checked around, Dou Emi found the person who had been drugged, and asked the palace people who were stunned, but they didn't know who the other party was, they didn't even see the figure.
The mission was still in the palace, and Li Huaifeng couldn't leave for too long, even if he was uneasy in his heart, he still had to return to the banquet to accompany the guests.
As soon as Li Huaifeng left, Agarwood said: "Why didn't Niangniang tell His Highness that it was Xiao Dingshan who stunned us?" Do you really want to make a deal with that General Xiao? This is the secret book that Niangniang desperately got back, how could it be given to Xiao Dingshan so easily? ”
"General Xiao is right, the people of the northern country have a way to live in peace, so naturally they will not violate my border again, not to mention that my brother is still in the northern country, I have no reason to refuse. But now Xiao Dingshan seems to be threatening my brother's life, and wants me to come up with more benefits, you all hold your troops for now, and see what the outcome of the negotiations between the peace talks between the two countries will be tomorrow. Lilac, you go and find out the book on herbal cultivation, we have to sort it out in a short time, so that we can take the lead. Lin Moran said.
Lilac responded, Lin Moran only proposed a few medicinal materials, let the agarwood be transcribed one by one, and there were several other precious medicinal materials suitable for planting on the grassland, Lin Moran also transcribed them separately, and put them separately, ready to take them out when the other party raised the price.
At the same time, Lin Moran asked Agarwood to collect the seeds of these medicinal materials, since it was going to be planted, how could there be fewer seeds?
The palace banquet was not interrupted because of this small episode, and finally ended at the end of the day, and the next day, the peace talks officially began, Xiao Dingshan's words at the peace table were sharp, sonorous and powerful, and his performance on the battlefield was as brave as his performance, which made the courtiers of the Great Zhou Dynasty chagrined.
Xiao Dingshan smiled triumphantly, looked at the peace minister of Da Zhou and said, "Everyone, don't argue anymore!" Is it true that my northern army was defeated by your Great Zhou army? It's just that we lack food and grass to end the war in a hurry, if we have enough food and grass, what benefits do you think Da Zhou can get? If you don't agree to my conditions, then continue to fight again, I will find food and grass from elsewhere, but there will be nothing to do with you! ”
"But you should also know that looking at the world, what other country can have my great wealth? What if you can find food and grass? How long will their food and grass sustain you in battle? In the end, don't you still have to turn to me for help? Do you still dare to negotiate terms with us? It's still asking for a sky-high price, I think we should advocate another war, I want to see how long the northern kingdom can hold out! Lord Xia said fiercely.
Master Gu, who was sitting next to him, pouted and didn't say a word, he didn't dare to say it.
Lord Gu and Lord Xia are officials in the same dynasty, and the daughters of the two families have a good relationship, so the two adults often have contacts, and the relationship is quite good. But Master Gu never knew that Lord Xia was so fierce when he started his temper.
The two sides quarreled so much, the sound was about to tear off the roof, Dingyuan Hou had a headache, he would rather kill on the battlefield than sit in this kind of place and quarrel with people to the point of overturning the roof.
After another round of disputes, Dingyuan Hou slapped the table and said, "Don't make any noise!" It's just such a thing, noisy and noisy, I don't know what is there to be noisy about? Isn't it just food? The last thing I need in the Great Zhou Kingdom is food! I can give you as much as you want, but one thing, what do you get in exchange? We won't take advantage of you, but we don't want to lose either! On the battlefield, we don't know whether we win or lose, and at the peace table, we should also trade equally, General Xiao, what do you think? ”
"Since you said that you won't take advantage of us, with the sentence Dingyuan Hou, I can rest assured. This matter is put aside first, what do you agents of the Great Zhou Kingdom, the two brothers of the Lin family say? If it weren't for them, we wouldn't have killed so many people, who would be responsible for the lives of these people? And what to pay it back? Xiao Dingshan asked solemnly.
Dingyuan Hou's expression froze, the two armies fought, each with casualties, this is understandable, everyone has their own wins and losses in this war, since the Lin brothers were arrested, the casualties and losses on both sides are not too much, if Xiao Dingshan talks about this, Dingyuan Hou will dare to directly step forward and slap him twice, saying that he will not die if he touches porcelain.
However, the Lin brothers stole information, causing the northern army to suffer several defeats and heavy casualties, and they could not argue with this matter. The two armies confronted each other and sent secret agents to steal intelligence, which was already a very spurned matter, and Dingyuan Marquis was even more irrefutable.
