Chapter 265: Seven Cities

After thinking of this possibility, Su Liruo felt that Mrs. Deng was not a fuel-efficient lamp.

It seems that the future days will not be lonely and boring, Su Liruo thought about it carefully, and then left.

"Mrs. Deng, Mrs. Deng, I haven't settled the account with you for stuffing those stolen things into my aunt's room before, and I am restless at this time, it seems that you are destined to miss the position of the prime minister's wife."

Su Liruo sat in the room, pinching two walnuts in her hand, she muttered softly, and shook her head with a regretful face.

After looking at it for a while, she fell her eyes on the two walnuts in her hand, as if these two walnuts were the heads of Su Qianjin and Deng Niangzi.

Hearing only the sound of "click", the two walnuts in Su Liruo's hands broke in response, looking at the walnut kernels that popped out of his hand, Su Liruo put the walnut kernels in his mouth and chewed them indifferently.

This walnut kernel is bitter, but it also has a different taste.

Su Liruo ate some fruits, pastries or something, felt bored, and went out.

I haven't seen it today, and I don't know if there is news of Shangguan Jin there.

Anyway, if Su Li was bored, she simply wanted to go to Duanwang's Mansion to have a look, but after entering the mansion, she found that Snatching Soul was communicating with a person who seemed to be a secret guard at the moment.

Su Liruo wanted to step forward to hear clearly, but he was discovered by Snatch after only a few steps forward.

Seeing the look of panic in his eyes, Su Liruo couldn't help but feel a little curious.

"What are you guys doing?"

Seeing Su Liruo ask like this, she clasped her fists and saluted, and then replied to her.

"Mrs. Hui's words are explaining to the secret guard how to protect Mrs.

Hearing this, Su Liruo frowned, and there was confusion in his eyes.

Is it really here to protect her? But she didn't notice anyone around her staring at her for the past few days.

"Do you know what it costs to lie to me?"

Hearing Su Liruo say this, her pupils dilated instantly, and then she calmed down again.

"Madame doesn't have to be so suspicious, to protect Madame's safety is to do things for the master, and to be loyal to the master, there is no second heart."

Hearing what he said, Su Liruo ignored her, and walked directly into Shangguan Jin's room.

Have no two hearts for Shangguan Jin? Oh, what does she mean

Think? Am I not the master?

Originally, Su Liruo was still a little indignant, but after entering the room, she gradually felt a little lonely.

The room was full of Shangguan Jin's breath, and Su Liruo always felt that she was staying in the room, as if Shangguan Jin was also by her side.

"Stinky man, when the hell are you coming back?"

Su Liruo sat bored on Shangguan Jin's bed, she hugged his pillow, and gradually, she fell asleep.

……

On the second day, above the court, all the officials were in the court, and the lord of Dongli was sitting on a high seat at this time.

At this time, Prime Minister Gu Cheng on the throne of the main hall looked confident and ready to deal with this negotiation.

Shangguan Jin also sat down on the top of the hall this time, and he looked light-hearted.

If he can't take seven cities today, he will take at least five cities, otherwise it will be spread out, and he will lose face.

"I wonder if the emperor of your country can think about it?"

In the past few days since Shangguan Jin came to Dongli Kingdom, the assassination of the emperor of Nanyu Kingdom by the prince and the second princess of Dongli Kingdom has been rumored.

At this time, everyone knows about the court.

Suddenly seeing Shangguan Jin speak, Baiguan was thinking about countermeasures in his heart.

Prime Minister Gu discussed the matter with them privately, and everyone did not come to a clear result, only saying that they would press the cities they demanded to three cities.

As for the gold and silver treasures and silk fabrics they demanded, as well as the good horses and horses, it was not a big problem.

"This king pondered for a night, and discussed with a group of courtiers, seven cities are too many, and in terms of cities, we will cede at most three cities to your Southern Imperial Kingdom, and the rest can be compensated for the good horses and silk fabrics and gold and silver treasures."

Hearing that the Emperor of Dongli Kingdom planned to do so, Shangguan Jin laughed out loud.

Seeing Shangguan Jin laughing in the hall, the surroundings were quiet, and he didn't know what to say.

However, Prime Minister Gu on the side had no scruples and spoke directly.

"Why is the messenger laughing?"

Hearing Prime Minister Gu Cheng ask, Shangguan Jin reluctantly restrained his smile.

"Prime Minister Gu, don't you know why I'm laughing?"

When Prime Minister Gu Cheng heard Shangguan Jin ask like this, he flicked his sleeves and looked like he didn't want to see him.

"Why is the messenger laughing, and how do we know? Don't say it here

Laughed. ”

Hearing Prime Minister Gu speak arrogantly, Shangguan Jin cleared his throat and stood up.

"I asked the emperor to take seven cities back, if I only brought three cities back, wouldn't it be difficult to explain?"

When Shangguan Jin said this, it was clear that he would not give in.

At this time, other courtiers spoke out to persuade him.

"Although you don't like the number of cities, isn't it enough to wait for the selection of good horses, horses, gold and silver treasures, and silk fabrics?"

Hearing an unknown courtier suddenly say such a sentence recklessly, Shangguan Jin raised his eyebrows and looked at him.

"I don't know who this is?"

Hearing Shangguan Jin ask about his name, the official was very proud to say his identity, "General Shubian, Wu Qishan." ”

"It turned out to be General Wu, who has been looking up for a long time, but General Wu has always guarded the safety of the country, and he must know how many cities and a few horses and a few silks at this time, which side is heavy and which side is light."

When he said this, Shangguan Jin saw that General Wu Qishan was no longer speaking, so he spoke again.

"Even if it is as you wish, then my dynasty asks your dynasty for offerings every year, thousands of good horses, thousands of horses, thousands of silk fabrics, and thousands of gold and silver treasures, I wonder if the emperor of Dongli Kingdom is willing?"

Shangguan Jin didn't intend to exchange these items for the city at all, but he just said it to scare and scare the lord of Dongli Kingdom.

When the lord of Dongli Kingdom heard Shangguan Jin say this, his face was a little unpleasant.

"Don't laugh at the envoy, if all these are taken away, then is there anything else in our country that can allow the people to live and work in peace and contentment? Doesn't this time you want me to give away the country of Dongli? ”

Seeing that the face of the lord of Dongli Kingdom was a little more unwelcome, Shangguan Jin laughed again.

"This is what you said yourself, only give me three cities, and choose the rest, why do you talk now and don't count? Could it be that this is the national style of Dongli Kingdom? ”

Hearing Shangguan Jin say this, the lord of Dongli Kingdom slapped the dragon head on the dragon chair and stood up angrily.

"Seven cities are absolutely not good, so let's add one more to this king, what does the envoy think?"

Hearing that the lord of Dongli was willing to give in, Shangguan Jin's heart was even more joyful.

Old fellow, as long as you are willing to give in, give way, you will give way to the second step, and the third step will naturally come. 2k reading web
