In the early morning, the sky was white, and the inside and outside of the towering city walls were all gone, and the ground was full of dead bodies and mutilation, and swords were shattered.

A hundred meters further to the inner city, there are mostly wounded soldiers, groan. Howling continued, and uninjured or lightly wounded soldiers were carrying them on stretchers, but their faces were more relaxed than those that perished inside and outside the walls.

It was a victory, despite the heavy casualties.

In the main hall of the official residence in the city, a cadre of soldiers sat together and closed the palace door to discuss politics.

The older military advisor stroked his beard and said worriedly: "This battle has lost thousands of soldiers, if it goes on like this, our army may not be able to smash the Yellow Dragon, the capital of the Blue Moon Country has 10,000 garrisons, the prince led the troops all the way from the northern border to attack, it took several months, the battle report has already arrived, I am afraid that the emperor ordered to mobilize soldiers, and now the garrison in the capital is not 30,000 but also half of it, even if the prince captures the capital, he may not be able to hold it." ”

Bai Chenlin sat in the right position, retired his armor and wore a vermilion regular uniform, was drinking tea, and when he heard the words, he raised the first and asked, "How long will it take for the reinforcements to arrive?" ”

He led the army to the front, and the army arrived behind, but he had been delayed for several days due to lack of food and grass, so the journey was behind.

"Three days to go." A young general below immediately replied, and his voice paused, "Your Highness, that Princess Linglong took the Nineteenth Prince to the Tianyuan Kingdom, there will be no changes, right?" ”

"Change? Asking for troops? Speaking of this, Bai Chenlin raised his eyebrows, "Li Yiyan has been on the throne for less than a year, and it has stabilized the court and the people's hearts, even if there are not many troops to support, there will not be many troops to support, and it will not be an obstacle in the face of our army, and Li Yiyan is not a person who will make a useless decision, this reinforcement, it is estimated that there will be no reinforcements." ”

The young general bowed his head, indicating that he understood, and then heard Bai Chenlin groan slightly and spoke, "But...... With Ning Yunxiao, I'm afraid I will come to negotiate! ”

The military advisor was puzzled, "Negotiation? What is it about? ”

Bai Chenlin shook his head and put down the teacup, "The main hall can't guess her thoughts, but I understand that according to her character, she will definitely miss such an opportunity to establish an alliance for her own country and Li Yiyan." ”

"Opportunity?" A cadre of generals doesn't understand, what chance?

Bai Chenlin's expression was serious, "The strength of the Blue Moon Kingdom has exceeded the estimation of the main hall, and the word 'annexation' is difficult to do, and other countries are eyeing it, especially the Flying Dragon Country, it is estimated that he is waiting for the main hall to break through the palace and kill the emperor, and he will immediately order to send troops to plunder the territory." ”

He said, "Ning Yunxiao also expected this, so he concluded that this hall would not be able to take the Blue Moon Kingdom by force, and would come to negotiate. ”

"Negotiations?" The breeze was blowing in the imperial garden, and the two sat opposite each other in the pavilion, and Li Yiyan looked surprised.

Ning Yunxiao nodded.

"Fortunately, I didn't tear my face with Bai Chenlin before, and now I can talk, let me ask you, do you plan to reinforce the Blue Moon Country?" She asked, while lowering her sleeves and moving her shoulders twice, she had just pulled a bow and shot arrows with Li Yiyan in the morning, but her shoulders were a little sore.

"Even the palace of the Blue Moon Country is about to be breached, and it is not a wise move to send troops to help." Li Yiyan said slowly, there was a battle situation in the Blue Moon Country last night, and according to the time, Chenzhou City must have been broken.

"But it's not broken." Ning Yunxiao said in a deep voice, meaning the imperial palace.

When the words fell, Sui Qing came from a distance to report, "Your Majesty, Princess Linglong is asking to see you outside." ”

Ning Yunxiao leaned sideways and said, "Bring the princess over." ”

Sui Qing should go.

Li Yiyan straightened his waist.

"The letter from the Emperor of the Blue Moon Kingdom came quickly, and it is estimated that Chenzhou City has not been broken, and he has already written a letter asking for help." He said, Ning Yunxiao didn't tell him what she had planned, he was still curious about this.

"Princess Linglong and the Nineteenth Prince have been rushing all the way, and the falcons around them have never been broken." Ning Yunxiao said, when the words fell, Sui Qing over there also led Princess Linglong over, followed by those envoys, all of whom looked panicked.

Also, whoever is replaced, the country will perish, and if your life is not guaranteed, you will have to panic.

"Linglong has seen the emperor and the queen." Standing outside the pavilion, Princess Linglong gave a salute, still holding a letter in her hand, and it seemed that she hurried over after reading the letter.

Li Yiyan bowed his head, "Flat, give a seat." ”

"Your Majesty." Princess Linglong immediately went to the hall and sat down on the stone bench, knowing that these two must also know that Bai Chenlin led the army to win another battle, and said bluntly, "I don't know what the emperor and the queen are considering?" The battle situation is urgent, if the emperor and queen mother have made a decision, I hope to go down early and save my Blue Moon Country once. ”

Hearing this, Ning Yunxiao and Li Yiyan glanced at each other.

Li Yiyan has found out, and he has always been the bad guy!

"Princess, the Blue Moon Kingdom has been destroyed again, I already know, but the matter of sending troops is too reckless, and I can't take the lives of my own soldiers as a child's play." He said, "This does not work, and the princess still finds another way." ”

"This ......" Princess Linglong knew that it would be difficult to borrow troops, but she couldn't think of any other way, Li Yiyan refused this time, and she immediately panicked.

The few envoys standing outside the pavilion behind them froze even more, and their faces turned white.

Princess Linglong looked at Ning Yunxiao for help, "Queen Mother, you can't borrow soldiers, so can you borrow weapons?" ”

"Princess, don't worry." Ning Yunxiao smiled slightly, "There is a way in this palace, but you can let Bai Chenlin lead the army out of the Blue Moon Country without moving a single soldier, but it's just ...... It depends on whether the Blue Moon Emperor can agree. ”

"What's the solution?" Princess Linglong immediately asked.

Ning Yunxiao said unhurriedly: "Compensation for land cution!" ”

"Land reparation?!" Princess Linglong was surprised, and her voice suddenly rose by a decibel, so that the ministers looked at each other one after another, and they also saw the shock in each other's eyes.

Ning Yunxiao nodded.

"Although Bai Chenlin led the army to the palace, but the Blue Sun Country could not swallow the Blue Moon Country, and now I am afraid that other countries will take advantage of this opportunity and want to share a delicious dish in your country's borders, so in order to avoid long nights and dreams, it is better to end the war with the Blue Sun Country as soon as possible, cede the land and pay compensation, and sign a war-free contract with the Blue Sun Country...... Although at first glance your country is at a disadvantage and suffers a big loss, it will be a long time to come to Japan, strengthen its troops and hoard grain and grass in the time of war-free, and are you afraid that he will not be able to recapture the land that was taken away by the Blue Sun country? ! She said, analyzing the pros and cons, she couldn't help but sigh again, she crossed over, and she really received a lot of modern knowledge, and those China, oh, no, what Empress Dowager Cixi, the unequal contract signed by the Qing Dynasty emperor can also be used.

Listening to her words, not only Princess Linglong felt that she had seen the dawn, but even Li Yiyan felt that this method was really wise, but it was too weak, if it was him, Tianyuan Kingdom would be attacked by other countries, and he would definitely gather the whole country's forces to fight back, even if the country was ruined in the end, and the country was ruined and the family was ruined, and the country was ruined and the family was only the worst outcome, and the biggest possibility was that the enemy soldiers were reluctant to lose most of their troops and withdraw.

Even Li Yiyan thinks it's feasible, let alone those envoys.

But there is still an envoy who is dedicated to the country and the people, and feels that this law is not feasible, and the words are sonorous, "Princess, the minister thinks that this law is definitely not feasible, no matter whether our emperor will agree or not, even if he agrees, what should the people living in the states and counties that have been forcibly taken captive by the Blue Sun Kingdom be?" The envoy raised his head and said, on the one hand, the people of the Blue Moon Country, and on the other hand, the small number of people, it is not difficult to see that at this time, his heart is also extremely tossing and turning, he is tough in his words, but he is a little hesitant.

These words caused the three people in the hall to turn their heads one after another.

Ning Yunxiao raised his eyebrows, this and this...... It's a loyal minister!

She wanted to speak, but she heard Li Yiyan speak, "I am the emperor, if I change me, I will definitely appease the people of other countries, in order to make the people become my people, what do you say, what will the emperor of the Blue Sun Kingdom do?" ”

He said, not angry and arrogant, more importantly, reasonable.

The envoy condensed, and several envoys next to him immediately said: "Governor Zhang, the current situation is that the people of the whole country are the most important, and Governor Zhang should not lose a big one because of a small one." ”

Governor Zhang immediately frowned, "What does it mean to lose a big loss because of a small one, and human life does not matter how big or small!" ”

"You! You! The envoys were stunned, "Pedanty! ”

Governor Zhang flicked his sleeves and was about to choke back.

Ning Yunxiao immediately stopped.

"This question couldn't be simpler, why quarrel!" She said, when Li Yiyan went to court in the past, she had listened to it in the palace for a while, these civil and political disagreements, a quarrel is half an hour, and half an hour is the first round, the quarrel is intense, want to come a few more rounds, can't fight for an hour, she doesn't want to listen to it anymore, not to mention that this Governor Zhang has been in the officialdom for many years, and has been appointed as an envoy, his mouth must be more slippery, although a few envoys next to him look a little inferior, but they can't stand the crowd, the mouth is fast, this is really noisy, it's over.

After she finished speaking, Princess Linglong and Governor Zhang asked questions together.

"Queen Mother, what's the solution?"

"Dare to ask the queen what she thinks?"

Li Yiyan also looked at it.

Ning Yunxiao sat upright, "Since Governor Zhang is worried about the people who are classified under the name of the Blue Sun Country, why not go to serve as the county guard or governor, when the time comes, whether the people will suffer or not, you can see it, and you can also make a contribution, I believe that there are still many loyal and important ministers like Governor Zhang in the Blue Moon Country, are you afraid that you will not be able to get together and move to the officials of the states?" ”

Good way!

Li Yiyan did not hesitate to cast an appreciative look at Ning Yunxiao.

Ning Yunxiao hooked his lips and smiled.

Princess Linglong immediately said, "This is a good solution! ”

The envoys also nodded, and the expressions on their faces were not as flustered as they had come.

"This ......" Governor Zhang pondered for a few breaths, and turned to bend down to salute, "The queen is wise!" ”

"It's just that this matter still needs to be reported to my emperor, and my emperor is asked to decide." He said, "Moreover, it is unknown whether Bai Chenlin can agree to our appointment." ”

Ning Yunxiao stood up, "This is natural, and besides, this palace has to go with you, otherwise it is difficult to say whether you can return to the Blue Moon Country smoothly, and besides, Bai Chenlin's side and Bai Chenlin's side will go around the palace." ”

She had a decision in her heart, but how could Li Yiyan let her go like this, she immediately refused, "Just send someone to go, you can't run around." ”

Ning Yunxiao was stunned when she said this, too, she forgot that she still had a big belly!

But......

This time she really had to go.

"Bai Chenlin won't agree to the land cession and compensation so easily, and I have other things to do." Ning Yunxiao said, "Monsoon Qingzhu is with you, with two hundred guards, don't be afraid of the little thief, I have to take care of you if the big forces want to move, don't you worry?" ”

Of course not!

Li Yiyan said, "I'll go with you." ”

Ning Yunxiao decisively ignored these words, and said to Princess Linglong: "Prepare to leave, wait for the palace to freshen up, and then go on the road." ”

has found a solution to the dilemma, naturally it is better to go back early, Princess Linglong immediately gave a gift.

"Thank you Queen Mother, Linglong is waiting outside the palace!" She said, saluted the two, withdrew from the hall, and went out with Governor Zhang and a few envoys.
