Thousands of miles away!

Xiao Yi's meeting with Liu Zhang, the assassin of Liangzhou, did not go well.

The first negotiation collapsed.

Father-in-law Xu, who accompanied him, naturally did not have a good face.

The task assigned by the emperor cannot be successfully completed, so what is the use of Xiao Yi.

Xiao Yi rolled his eyes, "If Gonggong Xu is not satisfied, you can talk about it in person!" My son wants to see if Liu Zhang will give you face. ”

Father-in-law Xu had a serious face, "Xiao Jun Shouzhen can laugh, our family is a eunuch, how can we have face at all." You are different, you are the son of the palace, an official of the imperial court, famous all over the world, and you have a good personal relationship with Liu Baoping. Such a background does not seem to bring any benefit to the negotiations, should you review it? ”

Xiao Yi looked out the window and could see the Liangzhou soldiers guarding outside the courtyard gate.

From the very beginning, Liu Zhang, the assassin of Liangzhou, put on a hostile attitude and was unwilling to negotiate with the imperial court.

He only needs a king.

The court and the emperor either made him king or refused outright.

What a word, what a negotiation, is not what he wants.

Xiao Yi felt very worried.

At the same time, I am also glad that Yunge did not come.

In such a situation, even if Yun Ge has a three-inch tongue, it seems that there is no way to break through the barrier and have a good conversation with Liu Zhang.

Xiao Yi pondered for a while, and said to Gonggong Xu: "If you delay like this, not only will things not be done, but I am afraid that you will lose a few lives here." Liu Zhang's attitude, Gonggong Xu, you can also see it, it's not that my son is incompetent, but that he has nowhere to start. ”

Gonggong Xu frowned, "I don't know if Xiao Junshou has a good strategy?" ”

Xiao Yi smiled softly, "I made an appointment with Liu Baoping to have a drink together tonight and talk in private." I hope that Gonggong Xu can temporarily retreat and forget his duties as a supervisor. Otherwise, Liu Baoping would not have told me the truth. ”

Father-in-law Xu readily agreed, "Okay! Our family is also tired during this time, so I will go to the Qinglou to listen to music tonight. ”

"Very good!"

……

A courtyard in the middle of the city.

Liu Baoping arranged the meeting place in a private place.

"There are all my people around, so Brother Xiao can speak freely."

Xiao Yi looked around, and the surroundings were quiet, only the sound of frogs was heard.

It was as if there were only two of them in heaven and earth.

But with his instinct as an Assassin, there were no less than twenty guards around the water pavilion and among the flowers.

There are also three or five people on the roof, guarding the commanding heights.

He could hear the bowstrings vibrating in the night wind.

He smiled, "The guards are so tight, who is Brother Liu guarding against?" Me? ”

Liu Baoping poured the tea himself, "Brother Xiao is really good at laughing." You and I are affectionate, how can I guard against you! This is a place of conquest, so you should be extra careful. ”

Xiao Yi immediately sneered and mocked: "I don't believe that Sima Dou has the ability to enter the city." The combat effectiveness of Liangzhou's soldiers and horses is rare in the world. How ambitious is Sima Dou, he dares to attack at night? ”

Liu Baoping said with a smile: "Just in case, Brother Xiao shouldn't find faults." I haven't congratulated Brother Xiao on marrying a good wife, but also on Brother Xiao's upcoming fatherhood. ”

"Thank you!"

The two only drink tea, not alcohol.

It is indeed the attitude of conversation.

Liu Baoping said with emotion: "Brother Xiao is lucky and unfortunate to marry the daughter of the Yan family. Now, Brother Xiao's name has been overshadowed by Mrs. Yan, do you have the slightest regret? ”

Xiao Yat raised his eyebrows, "Are you provoking?" I haven't seen you in a few years, and you've changed enough. More and more cunning and insidious. ”

was scolded by someone pointing at his nose like this, Liu Baoping still didn't change his face, and even laughed.

"Brother Xiao is as fast as ever. We are friends, I feel a little sorry for you, but the wording is inappropriate, please forgive Brother Xiao. ”

Xiao Yi sighed, "Brother Liu's face is really getting thicker and thicker. No wonder Princess Dingtao will be confused by you, looking for death and life. ”

Liu Baoping laughed, "I also want to thank Mrs. Zun, I heard that Dingtao is cultivating in Pingyang County." I believe that with Mrs. Zun's means, Princess Dingtao will definitely wake up to her that I am not worthy of her worries. After all, it's not all the way. ”

"If Ling Zun is willing to accept the title of the prince of the imperial court, everyone will still be all the way."

Xiao Yat finally turned the conversation back to business.

Liu Baoping shook his head and smiled, refilling Xiao Yi's teacup.

"My father's attitude is already very clear, if you are not a prince, you don't want it."

Xiao Yi frowned, "The Great Wei Dynasty has never set up a king with a different surname, and the emperor can't open this head for your Liu family." You know this very well.

Now, the imperial court is very sincere in talking with you, and even seizing the time to strive to open up the north-south transportation as soon as possible and deliver supplies to the soldiers and horses of Liangzhou.

Why is Ling Zun still so stubborn? Could it be that your purpose is not to be a prince at all, but to force the court to turn against you? In this way, you can justifiably oppose the imperial court. ”

"Brother Xiao drinks tea!" Liu Baoping greeted politely.

Xiao Yi didn't move the teacup, he stared at Liu Baoping, "I told the truth, didn't I?" ”

Silent!

A night breeze blew, and the lanterns swayed.

The light and shadow are intertwined, as if a ghost has emerged from the ground, ready to devour the soul of a human being.

Liu Baoping looked at Xiao Yi with a smile, "Brother Xiao is tense, is he guarding against anyone?" Don't worry, if we speak freely today, I will never be unfavorable to Brother Xiao. ”

Xiao Yi laughed, "I'm guarding against rebellious ministers and thieves!" ”

"No one here is a thief! There is no need for Brother Xiao to behave in front of me like such a righteous and awe-inspiring loyal general. I know your details. ”

"Your bottom line, my son is also clear."

As the two men confronted each other, the air began to freeze.

What a hot night!

There was not a hint of wind.

On this day, is it the rhythm that wants to suffocate people?

Hahaha......

Liu Baoping suddenly burst out laughing, breaking the tense atmosphere.

"I know what Brother Xiao wants to say, you want me to persuade my father to give up his plan to become king. Anyway, I can't persuade you! ”

It's all!

Xiao Yi smiled coldly, "Your father and son, are you really willing to give up your reputation as loyal ministers and good generals?" Will the reputation of the Liu family's generations of loyalty and goodness be ruined? The imperial court has never been sorry for your Liu family, I can't figure it out, what is the point of you persecuting the imperial court and the emperor so much? Could it be that your father and son still dare to openly rebel? ”

"No one wants to rebel! In the past two years, our Liu family has relied on their own material support to attack Sima Dou. Where are the materials of the imperial court, and where are the sources of soldiers? The imperial court owes us the Liu family and should be compensated. ”

"Speaking of compensation, in my opinion, the imperial court owes the Yan family more. After all, the Yan family guarded the front line of the Great Wei border pass and blocked Wuheng from moving south. And your Liu family, but chose the weak Sima Dou, and single-mindedly wanted to seize territory and expand power. ”

Xiao Yi sneered and said that the Liu family was worthless.

But even so, Liu Baoping didn't turn his face angrily.

He was eloquent, "Our Liu family just chose the right path at the right time. ”

"Is persecution of the imperial court the right way to be crowned king?"

"Of course! Otherwise, what's the point of what we're doing. ”

Xiao Yi's face was full of sarcasm.

After talking for a long time, he just refused to give a happy word.

He simply spared the circle and asked directly: "Is it possible to continue talking?" Please give Brother Liu a truth. ”

Liu Baoping fiddled with the teacup, "It depends on what Brother Xiao wants to talk about." ”

Xiao Yi smiled, "I have to remind Brother Liu, I am here to negotiate with your Liu family on behalf of the imperial court, and I hope you can give the imperial court and the emperor a face and accept the gift of the marquis." ”

"But I want to talk to Brother Xiao about the next cooperation with Pingyang County."

"Business matters, not my business."

"Brother Xiao can bring a message to Mrs. Yan, our Liu family is very sincere to carry out more and wider cooperation with her."

"I'm not going to talk about cooperation right now. I just want to get a word of truth from Brother Liu. If Brother Liu refuses to tell the truth, then it will be the end of it. ”

Liu Baoping smiled softly, "Brother Xiao doesn't have to be angry, if you want to tell the truth, I'll give it to you." Our Liu family only accepts the king, and does not accept anything else. If the imperial court insists on refusing to give the title of prince, our Liu family will not lack that official document. If the imperial court still cares about the opinions of the Liu family, please don't be stingy with rewards. ”

Xiao Yi smiled, "Okay, I know your attitude." Since we can't talk about it, there is no need to continue talking. Tomorrow, I will say goodbye and set off to meet the Marquis of Guangning on the front line of this pass. ”

"I want to ask Brother Xiao to stay for a few more days, so as to give me a face."

Xiao Yi narrowed his eyes slightly and remained silent.

Liu Baoping knew what he was thinking, "Brother Xiao, don't think too much, no one will endanger your life." Brother for many years, do you really refuse to stay a few more days? ”

"What are you staying for?" Xiao Yi asked casually.

Liu Baoping laughed, "With the affection of the two of us, we naturally want to share some secret news with you." Andu Marquis Xiao Chengye sneaked away from Jianzhou City, you know about this, right? ”

Xiao Yi nodded.

Andu Hou Xiao Chengye had a brain pump, ran away from Jianzhou, and never found anyone.

In this matter, the palace announced to the outside world that Anduhou was unwell and went to another courtyard to recuperate. No one should disturb you without a purpose.

After all, it can be regarded as saving the face of the royal family.

There are very few people who know that Andu Hou Xiao Chengye ran away secretly.

Some courtiers were kept to secret.

Many people thought that it was the emperor who poisoned Xiao Chengye, the Marquis of Andu.

There are even rumors that Xiao Chengye has died at the hands of Jin Wuwei.

No one dared to pierce the window paper about this, and it has been kept secret.

The Li family had already been given a gag order, and no one dared to speak out.

Xiao Yi waited for Liu Baoping's next step.

Liu Baoping did not disappoint him, "As far as I know, after Xiao Chengye, the Marquis of Andu, left Jianzhou, he went all the way north. Now, if nothing else, he is in the Gyeonggi area. Someone helped him cover his whereabouts. ”

"Are you saying that Andu Marquis Xiao Chengye fell into the hands of Sima Dou?"

"To be precise, he fell into the hands of Mr. Deng."

Xiao Yi's heart jumped.

Once again, I heard someone mention Mr. Deng.

He asked quietly: "As far as I know, Mr. Deng is a fictitious person from Sima Dou's side, in order to confuse the world. ”

"Brother Xiao is wrong, there is indeed Mr. Deng."
