Jun Ran stared at the envoy surnamed Xiao tightly, and immediately noticed that the other party's eyes dodged for a moment, and then returned to normal.

There is play. Jun Ran said secretly in his heart.

"Lord Wang, how can the contemptible people know where the bones of the Beiwang and his wife in Guiguo Town are." The envoy surnamed Xiao frowned, revealing a puzzled expression.

The young envoy looked at the envoy surnamed Xiao and echoed, "Yes, my lord, the king and his wife of Zhenbei are from your country, and they also died in your country, what does it have to do with our country?" ”

In the hall, there was silence.

Jun Ran looked at the two envoys steadily, without even raising an eyebrow.

The long silence made the two envoys a little uneasy, especially in the face of the elusive King Jane, whose sharp gaze seemed to read through people's hearts.

Jun Ran smiled again, his young and handsome face was full of light, and there was a hint of mockery without delay.

"Lord Xiao, since this king said so, then there is definite news, your country is so prevaricating this king, the sincerity of this peace negotiation is inevitably insufficient."

Jun Ran deliberately chose this opportunity to make this last request, naturally because of his considerations.

Now that the peace talks have basically been completed, the people of Beiyan can't wait to sign the peace book in exchange for the next peace, for Beiyan, at this critical moment, it is not worth it to give way to two worthless corpses and regenerate accidents.

If Jun Ran made this request from the beginning, it would be equivalent to giving Beiyan a chance to think deeply, and they would definitely use this as a coercion to suppress the conditions for peace talks.

"......" The envoy surnamed Xiao's face was blue and white for a while, and he didn't speak for a while.

Jun Ran casually flipped through the peace book on the book, and raised his eyebrows casually, "Lord Xiao, should you or not, so you can give this king a word." ”

The envoy surnamed Xiao followed Jun Ran's fingers and also looked at the two copies of the book, and his heart was very entangled.

It's just one step away, only one step away from getting Junran to sign this peace book......

The hands of the envoy surnamed Xiao hidden in his sleeves were tightly clenched into fists, and the green tendons on the back of his hands were bulging.

He did know about it, or rather, in Beiyan, there were not a few people who knew about it.

Thinking of Xue Qiyuan, the king of Zhenbei, the envoy surnamed Xiao couldn't help but have his eyes flickering and he was slightly moved.

Unlike his young colleagues who came with him, he has a deep memory of the name "Xue Qiyuan".

The Xue family of Zhenbei Wangfu has guarded the north for a hundred years, not only in the north of the prestige, but also in their Dayan, Yan people no one knows the name of the king of Zhenbei.

The last generation of Zhenbei King Xue Qiyuan is the best in the Xue family, and it was once a nightmare for all Yan people.

When Xue Qiyuan was alive, the northern border could be said to be as solid as gold, how many times did their Yan army sneak attack the northern border, they all returned with a feather, countless big Yan men died in the north, and they all hated Xue Qiyuan and were afraid of Xue Qiyuan.

At that time, the elders would use Xue Qiyuan's name to scare the naughty children in the family.

At that time, the reigning King of Yan was still the King of Yan Yeluzhi. Yelu Zhi couldn't deal with Xue Qiyuan, so he could only temporarily give up Dasheng and expand the territory of Dayan to the northwest.

The change happened sixteen years ago.

Sixteen years ago, Geng Hai, the prince of Dasheng's patriotic state, secretly borrowed troops from Yelu Zhi on the orders of Emperor Dasheng, and one of the conditions put forward by Yelu Zhi at that time was to kill the king and his wife in Zhenbei, and to give their bodies to Beiyan.

With the cooperation of the two parties, the Zhenbei Wangfu was destroyed, and none of the Xue family survived.

After that, Geng Hai kept his promise and handed over the bones of Xue Qiyuan and his wife to Yeluzhi, and Yeluzhi asked the great wizard to suppress the bones of Xue Qiyuan and his wife in the Seven Star Tower, so that they would never be able to live beyond life.

Back then, when the news spread, many Yan people applauded it, and Yeluzhi also won a lot of people's hearts.

The past flashed in front of the envoy surnamed Xiao like a marquee, and the memory was still fresh.

In the blink of an eye, sixteen years have passed, people are forgetful, and now it is in Beiyan, and the younger generation does not know much about Xue Qiyuan, the king of Zhenbei, and this name is gradually forgotten.

The expression of the envoy surnamed Xiao became more complicated, fine cold sweat oozed from his forehead, and his body was tense.

What he couldn't figure out was, how could Dasheng people know about this?!

In the hall, there was silence and silence.

The two Northern Yan envoys were silent.

Jun Ran didn't urge them, he turned around and returned to the Taishi chair above, and sat down in his robe.

Such a simple action, revealing a bit of whimsiness, a bit of uninhibitedness, and a bit of condescension.

Obviously, Jun Ran didn't say anything, but the envoy surnamed Xiao felt a silent oppression.

His heart felt as if it had weighed on a boulder, so heavy that he couldn't breathe.

The young envoy quietly tugged at the sleeve of the envoy surnamed Lashaw and urged him with his eyes. In his opinion, this is just a small thing.

The envoy surnamed Xiao pursed his lips hesitantly.

This is indeed just a trivial matter, the problem is that in the book, the terms of the peace talks he promised were all agreed by Yelusuo, the king of Yan, but the bones of Xue Qiyuan and his wife were not among them.

Therefore, the question he needs to consider is, will King Yan agree to this condition? If he agreed to Jun Ran without authorization, would King Yan be angry with him because of this?!

The answer soon came to his mind naturally.

King Yan should agree, after all, it was the Xianyan King Yeluzhi who suppressed the corpses of Xue Qiyuan and his wife in the Seven Star Tower, the two brothers have always been at odds, and he agreed to this condition to slap Yeluzhi in the face, but Yu Yanwang was unharmed.

More importantly, the peace talks have already been completed, and they are only one step away from the door, and there is no need to procrastinate again and again for such a small matter...... To put it mildly, if Jun Ran proposes to renegotiate peace with the envoys, then his credit may be snatched away by the envoys behind.

The envoy surnamed Xiao quickly weighed the pros and cons in his heart, showed a resolute look on his face, and said with a smile, "Lord Wang, this is just a trivial matter, just promise the prince for my king." ”

When the young envoy heard this, he was relieved and wiped the cold sweat from his forehead with his cuffs.

Jun Ran, who was sitting in front of him, hooked his lips and smiled, and said cheerfully, "Okay! Lord Xiao, then wait for the remains of Zhenbei Wang and his wife to arrive, and then sign this and the book. With that, Jun Ran stood up and strode towards the outside of the hall.

The envoy surnamed Xiao frowned slightly, he originally wanted to coax Jun Ran to sign this peace book first, but now he can only give up.

At this time, Jun Ran walked up to the two envoys and stopped suddenly.

He turned his head to meet the envoy surnamed Xiao, and his bright and sharp eyes shot straight away, as if he could see through his appearance and hit his heart.

"Lord Xiao, don't play any tricks in your country, since we know that people are in your country, of course there are ways to distinguish them." After leaving this sentence, Jun Ran continued to walk forward.

This time, he didn't stay any longer and didn't look back.

"......" The smile on the corner of the envoy's mouth froze for a moment, and he secretly scolded this King Jian in his heart for being cunning!

The Seven Star Pagoda is far away in the capital of Yan Kingdom, and it takes time to go back and forth, so the envoy surnamed Xiao was just thinking about simply getting two corpses and giving them to Dasheng.

Now listening to Jun Ran's words, the envoy surnamed Xiao was afraid that it would be self-defeating, and Jun Ran grabbed the handle and used the excuse to delay the peace talks, so he could only stop this thought.

That's fine. He said to himself in his heart that it was just two corpses, and it didn't hurt or itch. He hurriedly went to the capital to pay for King Yan, and King Yan would definitely not be willing to affect the peace this time for the sake of the things that Yelu had done at the beginning.

Thinking about it, the envoy surnamed Xiao had a lot of peace of mind.

That's right, at this time, peace negotiation is the most important thing, and Jun Ran must sign the peace book quickly and withdraw from the army as soon as possible.

After they Dayan recuperates, they can wait for the opportunity, they Dasheng people have always been uneven, internal disasters are continuous, like Jun Ran, who is so high-ranking and shocking, sooner or later will be jealous of the new emperor of Dasheng.

In the future, they Dayan will definitely find an opportunity to make Dasheng pay!

The two Northern Yan envoys did not stay long, and hurriedly left.

Over the next few days, calm returned to the city of Lenta, and the weather in November was getting colder and colder, with a northerly wind howling and a biting chill.

On 14 November, two Northern Yan envoys visited the city of Lenta again.

This time, it was not only them who came, but also two heavy coffins.

The black coffin was placed in the open space in front of the main hall, and in the cold wind, a few residual leaves swirled and floated down and fell on the coffin, and the atmosphere was solemn and gloomy.

Everyone's eyes fell on the two coffins.

The envoy surnamed Xiao said with a smile, "Lord Wang, what is in here is the bones of the King and his wife in Zhenbei, please check it." ”

The envoy surnamed Xiao said polite words, but Jun Ran was not polite to the other party, he didn't believe the Beiyan people.

"Wang Yanzuo, let's do an autopsy."

Jun Ran commanded lightly, and the work he brought was immediately ordered.

Two soldiers removed the lid of the coffin, revealing the bones within.

Sixteen years later, the corpse had long since turned into white bones, leaving only the clothes stained with dark red blood on the bones.

Wang Chengzuo's face was solemn and respectful.

Wang Chengzuo has passed the age of not being confused, he was born in the north, the north is long, and the Zhenbei Wangfu has a special meaning for them, the people of the north.

He took a deep breath and leaned down to examine the bones.

The man's body was seven feet eight long, with obvious scratches between the second and third ribs on his left chest, and he should have died with an arrow through his heart, and his right arm was an inch longer than his left.

The woman's body was six feet nine long, and there were traces of the wound healed after the fall on her right calf bone, and even after a long time, those marks were still engraved on her bones forever.

After checking the body, he walked up to Jun Ran and nodded, "Lord Wang, it's the king and his wife in Zhenbei." ”

When the two Northern Yan envoys heard this, they were relieved.

Jun Ran looked at the two corpses in the coffin with complicated eyes. He didn't know anything about the Zhenbei Wang couple, and the information that came from him to identify the corpse also came from Mu Yan.

Mu Yan wrote clearly on the letter, including the length of the Zhenbei couple, where they were injured back then, what specific parts they had, and how many inches on the bones.

Thinking back to Mu Yan's letter, Jun Ran's eyes became deeper, revealing a bit of thought.

This matter is a little strange from beginning to end, when the Zhenbei Royal Mansion fell, Mu Yan was only three years old, but he acted as if he had witnessed the death of the Zhenbei King and his wife, and knew these details very well.

That was obviously told to Mu Yan.

So who could that person be?!

Seeing that Jun Ran was silent, the two envoys of Northern Yan exchanged glances with each other, and the envoys surnamed Xiao couldn't help but urge, "Lord Wang, since there is no problem with the bones, then you can sign the peace book now, right?" ”

He was afraid that this King Jian would toss some moth temporarily, so it would be really difficult for him to explain in front of King Yan.

Jun Ran raised his eyes to look at the envoy surnamed Xiao, and responded with a smile, "That's natural." "He looks like he's very talkative.

On this day, Dasheng and Beiyan officially signed the peace letter, which also represents the official end of the war between the two countries.

Holding the hot book of peace, the two Northern Yan envoys were overjoyed and almost couldn't wait to leave. They also have to go back to report to King Yan.

After settling down in the north, Jun Ran led the tens of thousands of forbidden troops in the north to support the imperial court and returned to Beijing to resume his life.

The army marched all the way, attracting many people to welcome it everywhere it passed, and arrived in the Gyeonggi area on the second day of the lunar month.

"Lord Wang, the regent is leading hundreds of civil and military officials to greet him at the Wuli Pavilion in front."

Under the bright sunshine, a young general came back to say goodbye to Jun Ran after exploring the way ahead.

"Let's go!" Jun Ran hooked his lips and smiled, pinched the horse's belly in high spirits, and the white horse under his crotch neighed and sped up, and galloped out first.

The tens of thousands of troops in the rear followed closely, and the rumbling sound of horses' hooves was like muffled thunder, like war drums, and the heavens and the earth were shaken.

After a while, a team of three or two hundred people in front of him came into Jun Ran's eyes.

The sun had just risen, and the cold wind was blowing in the suburbs of the capital, and the sun was pouring down softly from the blue sky, casting a faint halo on everyone on the official road.

"Stepping on ......"

Amid the deafening sound of horses' hooves, the distance between the two sides grew closer.

Jun Ran also gradually slowed down his horse's speed, and looked at Mu Yan and Cen Yin who were standing at the front of the hundred officials with clear eyes.

Mu Yan, who was wearing a dark crown, straddled a sturdy black horse, and Cen Yin beside him straddled a red unicorn robe on a red horse.

The temperament of the two young people is very different, one is flamboyant and frivolous, the other is cold and indifferent, and they will be very different tomorrow, but when they stand side by side at this moment, there seems to be a subtle sense of harmony.

Jun Ran stared at Mu Yan with burning eyes, and sighed in his heart.

Since he went to the north in August of last year, he and Mu Yan have not seen each other for more than a year.

This year is not long, it is not short, Rao is Junran had already guessed that Mu Yan knew it, but he did not expect that Mu Yan could make a name for himself in such a short period of time and stand openly in the field of vision of the people of Dasheng as the regent.

Jun Ran's mood fluctuated for a while, but his face was not obvious, and the corners of his mouth were smiling, and his expression was radiant.

With a "hoo", Jun Ran stopped the horse's hooves more than ten zhang away, and the army behind him also stopped.

The sound of horses' hooves died down, but the dust still filled the air like a gray mist......

Jun Ran immediately clasped his fists at Mu Yan and saluted, "I've seen the regent!" ”

The tens of thousands of soldiers behind him also made the same sound, shouting like thunder, shaking the heavens and the earth.

Mu Yan smiled loudly and called affectionately, "Ah Ran, congratulations on your triumphant return!" ”

The original solemn and majestic atmosphere around was completely destroyed by Mu Yan's "Ah Ran".

The ministers in the rear secretly exchanged glances, knowing that the regent and King Jian were friendly and close to each other, and it seemed that this was the case. In any case, this is a good thing for Dasheng and for the imperial court.

The ministers also bowed to Jun Ran, congratulating him on his triumphant return, and the air was full of joy and unity.

At the same time of congratulations, the eyes of the ministers inevitably fell on the two coffins of the king, and their faces showed surprise, and more and more eyes looked at the two coffins, and they exchanged private discussions.

It is very common to have casualties on the battlefield, most of the ordinary soldiers are buried on the spot, and the corpses that will be brought back to the capital are unusual, at least a certain level of generals, but generally speaking, the corpses should be transported back to the capital later, rather than being carried by Jun Ran so cautiously with the army.

Cen Yin didn't speak, his eyes also fell on the two coffins, and his eyes were filled with complexities that others couldn't understand, longing, sadness, anger, and happiness......

Unlike the ministers present, Cen Yin already knew who was in the two coffins.

One night a few days ago, Mu Yan quietly came to Cen Mansion to look for him, saying that he had found the bones of Zhenbei Wang and his wife, and asked Jun Ran to bring them back to the capital from the north, and they would arrive in a few days.
