For these ministers who were about to negotiate peace conditions, the ghost king had a solid problem for them. On the list that the ghost king gave them, in addition to asking the Three Kingdoms to hand over a lot of gold, silver, grain and grass, he also added various strange conditions.

Chiyan's condition added a clause that the eldest prince wanted to come to Moyun as a hostage for three years, which was previously only done by two princes in Moyun, and there was no such precedent in other countries. It can be said that this is simply an insult to the Chiyan Kingdom, and the king of the Chiyan Kingdom will agree to have a ghost. However, a few people thought of the arrogant expression of the eldest prince when he left, and many people still wanted to see that this prince was unlucky.

Ruifeng's condition was added, and he wanted to take the border city of Kuncheng in exchange for the three princes who were captured. Many people feel that such conditions are too harsh, the dispute between several countries begins with the dispute over the territory, which country will easily cede the land and pay compensation, after all, Mo Yun has not even been able to step further in Kuncheng, if Kuncheng is now in the hands of Mo Yun, it is still possible, but now he wants to open his mouth directly... I heard that there are more than a dozen princes of Ruifeng Country, and if the monarch of Ruifeng Country wants to choose between three princes and an important border city, the result can be imagined.

Of course, this question was also raised by the minister on the spot, and Yun Yuhong asked lightly: "If you want to say that this condition of asking for the cession of border city territory was not mentioned by me first, it was the envoys of the Three Kingdoms who said it first a while ago, and I remembered this matter." Didn't you all have to make peace then? How can you say that Mo Yun is going to give up the border city before he is defeated, and Ruifeng won't agree for the sake of a prince? What is the rationale for this? ”

No one dared to speak for a few ministers, Yun Yuhong was waiting for them here, they really didn't think about it at the time, they just wanted to press the emperor to agree to negotiate peace, it was really ill-considered, and they deserved to be caught by the ghost king today.

Zeyu's conditions were even more unacceptable, and Yun Yuhong demanded twice as much gold, silver, and grain as the other two countries. Originally, the three countries formed an alliance, although they successively proposed peace, but the envoys came together, and the negotiations and negotiations were also discussed together, which is only fair if the requirements of each other are the same or almost the same, and now they only ask Zeyu to come out more, and Zeyu can agree to have a ghost.

Just because these ministers have received the holy decree, they can only talk according to the requirements of the ghost king, and their next days can be said to be in dire straits. The envoys of the Three Kingdoms were not given in vain, the first requirement for envoys to other countries was that they must slip their mouths, they lost on the battlefield, but they couldn't lose to Mo Yun in terms of words and swords, so this war without gunpowder kicked off.

Yun Yuhong was busy with the military affairs of all parties, and she didn't care much about the peace, but she had a word first, and if she didn't meet her requirements, she couldn't sign, and these ministers were exhausted in the end, and they could only grind hard with the envoys.

It's been nearly a month since she returned to Beijing, Yun Yuhong has arranged all the affairs of the army, and finally remembered that she didn't seem to have heard any news about the peace negotiation, so she mentioned it to Bai Ziyu at dinner, Bai Ziyu smiled bitterly: "I heard that they didn't convince others, but were persuaded by others." These officials are all sharp and well-armed on weekdays, but they really don't know anything about the national economy and the people's livelihood. ”

Yun Yuhong frowned: "It's not a way to go on like this, they are unbearable and still occupy official positions, which is disadvantageous to the country and the people, it's good for me to take the opportunity to replace them, but this succession of manpower... How did all the people brought from Yuxue last time behave? ”

Bai Ziyu sighed, "Jiang is still old and spicy, Yu Shangshu has crushed these people to the point that they can't get out." ”

"No matter how bad they are, it seems that they can't be entrusted with important tasks." Yun Yuhong Qi Dao.

Bai Ziyu shook his head: "You can't say that, when we picked people, we were looking for people who were willing to put their minds on doing things, these tricks and tricks were not their forte, besides, if they only came here for a few days, how about Yu Shangshu, who has a foundation of more than 20 years, you and I don't dare to use such people." ”

Yun Yuhong pondered it carefully, but now Mr. Ning, Liu Dagongzi and others are no longer by her side, which also makes her feel that there is a lack of talents, and she is not worried about the military attache who protects the family and defends the country, but she is still really lacking in civil officials who govern the world.

Bai Ziyu saw Yun Yuhong's troubles, patted her hand and comforted: "The official's matter is left to me to solve, you don't have to worry, but you have to think about how to deal with the envoys of the three kingdoms in the Golden Palace tomorrow." ”

Yun Yuhong smiled slyly, "Yulang, since I arranged the peace negotiation, naturally I can also finish it, if I don't peel off a layer of skin from them, my name will be written upside down." ”

In fact, compared to Yun Yuhong's anxiety, what was even more anxious was the several ministers, who consulted Zhou Daxue and Yu Shangshu overnight, but the two of them had the same caliber, admitted their mistakes, and kicked this matter to the ghost king to solve. The ghost king can't sign such a clause, so the ghost king will make a big joke. Even if she really had the ability to do it, they would try to keep them.

The next day, there was really a stir in the court because of the matter of discussing and making envoys. Several ministers reported the results, they focused on expressing their guilt, failing to complete the things delivered by the saint is their own incompetence, especially compared with the ghost king, they feel deeply guilty, so they specially ask Qianzong for guilt, and the envoy of the peace, please send another capable person to the saint, of course, from the meaning of their words, this is the ghost king deliberately embarrassed them, even the ghost king himself may not be able to do it, I don't believe you called the ghost king to try.

Yun Yuhong ignored them, but said directly to the envoy of Chiyan: "Chiyan thinks that the conditions I offer are unreasonable, please tell me about it,"

Chiyan's envoy said: "Back to the ghost king, our country can agree to gold, silver, grain and grass, but the matter of the eldest prince as a hostage is absolutely impossible, which will damage our country's face." ”

Yun Yuhong nodded: "It's okay if the eldest prince doesn't come, then leave the 100,000 Red Yan Army soldiers we captured." In this way, Chiyan's face will look much better. "In order to protect the prince and 100,000 soldiers, Chiyan does not lose face and loses the hearts of the people and the army.

The envoy of Chiyan was stunned at the time, saying that he couldn't say that, if he really did this, he wouldn't have to live after he went back. But the ghost king is obviously coercing, in a word, if you don't follow my routine, I will only make you look at it more and lose more.

Yun Yuhong turned her head again and asked the envoy of Ruifeng, "What are you Ruifeng for?" ”

Ruifeng's envoy said: "There is no problem with my country's money and food, but the matter of ceding the city is absolutely unacceptable, Kuncheng is of great significance to Ruifeng, and the loss of Kuncheng is equivalent to the loss of the portal." ”

Yun Yuhong nodded, "Then let's do it, I'll change Chiyan's conditions with you." I don't want your city, I invite Mo Yun, the third prince of your country, to play for three years. He happened to be in my army. "Duanmu Tiancheng still wants me in my hands now, I don't let anyone go, it makes no difference whether you sign it or not.

Ruifeng and Chiyan envoys are stunned, is this child's play, can you change it at will like this? They can't accept this threat from the Ghost King.

Yun Yuhong seemed to see the doubt in their eyes, and smiled: "That's it, the three conditions, proton, city, double the amount of money and food, give you the opportunity to choose by yourself, everyone must choose the same, it can't be repeated, you decide." In the past two days, I have redeployed the army, you don't want to negotiate peace, it's not impossible for us to continue fighting, everyone is ready."

What is this, this is a threat, this is a naked threat. The envoys of the Three Kingdoms scolded Yun Yuhong in their hearts, this is the princess of a country, this is a scoundrel.

Several people made a small calculation in their hearts, and they all felt that the conditions for opening up their country were not so difficult to accept. And they quickly gave up on reasoning with the ghost king, the ghost king was obviously an unreasonable person, she only talked about her fists, and the chips in her hands also made them have to bow their heads.

The envoy of Chiyan was the first to shout, "Actually, our monarch thinks that it is okay to send the eldest prince to Moyun as a guest, but he has to bother the emperor and the ghost king to take more care." ”

Yun Yuhong took out two documents from her arms and said to the envoy of Chiyan: "Then please sign these two pieces of paper, my lord." The arrival of money, grain and the prince is the time when these 100,000 soldiers return to their hometowns. ”

The envoy of Chiyan read it, and after a little thought, he signed it. He secretly said in his heart: Fortunately, this condition was known in advance, and the monarch had prepared for the worst, so he would not be told if he went back this time. Of course, in his heart, he is also a little pitiful for the eldest prince, who was arrested twice, which made him lose face in front of his father and emperor, and the originally important son has become a disgrace to the country and the royal family. The Emperor of Chiyan has given up the Great Prince, of course, how can a useless prince compare to an army of 100,000, and because of this 100,000 army, the emperor has a good reputation of loving the people like a son.

Chi Yan lowered his head so quickly that the other two envoys wanted to bite him to death, and the three kingdoms that had been said to insist together, expecting things to turn around, why was he succumbed after being said by the ghost king, where did this put them.

The two envoys glanced at each other, and the Ruifeng envoy hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, the Ghost King, I, Ruifeng, am willing to give double the money and food, please exempt from this matter of proton and land." "Compared with sending the prince as a hostage and ceding the city, it is much easier to send money and grain, and after going back, you can collect it by increasing the tax a little. And he didn't promise additional conditions, but only increased the money and food, and he should pay the difference when he went back.

In the end, only Zeyu's envoy was left stunned, what is the situation, these two are definitely allies, aren't they bad friends? How could the conditions that were originally given to him be snatched away by Ruifeng, sending the city to the city is not a trivial matter, and it is even more impossible, is it too late for him to say that he agrees now?
