Lin Qingwan said: "You can keep the land without fighting, do you want to kill all the soldiers on the battlefield?" ”

General Tang Shen blushed and shouted: "I am not afraid of death." ”

"But I'm afraid," Lin Qingwan said solemnly: "I'm afraid of dying in battle, I'm afraid of the city being broken, and I'm even more afraid that the people living in this city will die because of this, as well as the thousands of people behind this city." ”

General Tang said angrily: "The county lord is so sure that we will lose? ”

Lin Qingwan's eyes turned red and said: "But General Tang, we have no reinforcements, and Daliang can't draw reinforcements to support you now, just relying on you people, can this city really hold on?" ”

General Tang looked at Wu Shilang in a daze.

Wu Shilang nodded slightly and said: "General Tang, the imperial court really can't transfer reinforcements, and it is because of this that His Majesty asked Lord Lin to negotiate peace." This time, there is only a thirty percent hope for peace, and the county lord is gambling with his life. This Northeast Army was originally the Lin Family's Army, and the Tartars on the other side hated the Lin family's people the most, don't you understand? ”

General Tang opened his mouth wide, shook his lips and asked, "Henan, Lingzhou, Jiangling, and Hongzhou can't draw troops?" ”

Lin Qingwan and Wu Shilang were silent.

Tang Shenjiang's face changed, "I have to think about it again." ”

Naturally, this matter was not something he could consider, so when he went out, he found his henchmen and asked him to return to Dingzhou immediately to deliver the letter.

Do the generals and generals of Su know that the imperial court can't draw reinforcements?

Lin Qingwan doesn't care about him, if he wants to borrow it, he can borrow it, if he doesn't borrow her, he will go to Lan County to ask for it, no matter how bad it is, there will be Su Zhang.

Lin Qingwan cared about another thing, and as soon as she returned to the room, she asked Yi Han, "Have you been contacted?" ”

Yi Han nodded, "Although they are from a family, what is left behind is the end of the side branches, fortunately, they are united and have contact with each other, in order to live a better life in the Liao Kingdom, there are no less names of several big families, and now there are still people in the Liao court who run errands, so it is not difficult to contact them." But these people are mixed, and they may not be trustworthy, does the county lord really want to use them? ”

Lin Qingwan said: "There is no need to tell them and the plate, we pay, they do things, and each asks for what he needs." ”

Yi Han nodded and asked, "What does the county lord want them to do first?" ”

Lin Qingwan lowered her eyes and thought for a while: "Let's buy news from them first, such as how many live sheep and live cattle there are in Yunzhou now." ”

Yi Han raised his eyebrows and turned to go down.

In the evening, General Tang Shen came to her with a serious face, "Lord Lin, I will do my best to cooperate with you, when do you want this batch of grain?" ”

Lin Qingwan knew that the person he sent to Dingzhou had returned, and she smiled slightly: "I want it tomorrow, you can prepare it for me first." ”

Lin Qingwan saw that he was a little reluctant on his face, so he said: "It's snowing, I heard that the offensive on the Dingzhou side has slowed down, but the snow will always stop, and even if this snow can keep falling, they won't give up. General Tang, Dingzhou can't afford to wait, one day late, one more day of casualties. ”

General Tang's face softened slightly, and he nodded: "I understand, don't worry, the county lord, I will definitely prepare the grain for you tomorrow." ”

Lin Qingwan nodded, and sent someone to deliver a letter early the next morning, saying that the food was ready, and asked them to send someone to come and inspect it.

It was a lieutenant general she had seen in the big tent that day, and he rubbed the grains, which were not of good quality, but not very bad, and should have been misappropriated from the army's grain and grass.

He sneered in his heart, glanced at General Tang who was standing on the side, and said to Lin Qingwan: "Don't worry, Lord Lin, I will tell our general the truth when I go back." ”

Lin Qingwan nodded lightly and asked, "What about the live cattle and sheep we need?" ”

"Don't worry, the county lord is ready."

Lin Qingwan smiled and said, "Looking forward to meeting with the third prince tomorrow." ”

Sending the Liao people away, Lin Qingwan walked out of the warehouse, a piece of snow fell on her forehead, it was cold, Yi Han hurriedly opened the umbrella, Lin Qingwan separated his hand, looked up at the gray sky, and sighed: "I hope this time their truce will be longer." ”

At least give her time to raid Wendy Han.

The next day, Wen Dihan and Lin Qingwan made an appointment to meet at the border, pulling grain while driving cattle and sheep, but obviously the other party did not speak very credibly.

Lin Qingwan saw that he had pulled two carts of mutton, and the number of cattle and sheep tied to the side was less than half of the last time they had negotiated, Lin Qingwan's footsteps paused slightly, her face sank, and she said unhappily when she saw Wen Dihan: "If the third prince is not sincere, then I haven't mentioned the matter of cooperation." ”

Wen Dihan smiled and said: "Lord Lin County misunderstood, it's not that I lost my trust, but there is really no way, in the eyes of Yunzhou disaster, there are not many live cattle and sheep, don't look at these muttons are slaughtered, this kind of weather can be preserved for a long time." ”

Lin Qingwan sneered: "Yes, but how did I hear that for this war, a large number of cattle and sheep were driven to Yunzhou, and you even confiscated the cattle and sheep raised by the Han people as military food, and now there are a lot of live cattle and sheep in the camp of the third prince, right?" ”

Wen Dihan's pupils shrank, and he said with a smile: "Lord Lin has inquired clearly. ”

"Naturally, you all say that our Han people's stomachs are bent and eighteen, but I think your Liao people's minds are not shallow, if I don't do some homework, how dare I come to meet the third prince?"

There was a moment of silence on both sides.

The two sides were tense, and Wendihan asked, "Is this deal going to happen?" ”

"The third prince is not sincere, I don't dare to risk my Liang national body."

"I also don't dare to risk my Da Liao's future," Wen Dihan stared into her eyes and said, "I don't trust you, how do you know that this is not your big beam's discordant plan?" ”

The two sides fell silent again.

Obviously, they don't trust each other, and this negotiation can hardly go on.

Wu Shilang's face changed a few times, and he looked at Lin Qingwan anxiously, if the conversation collapsed like this, what would happen to the Chu State?

Lin Qingwan was silent for a long time, and finally said, "Then we will all show a little sincerity." ”

Wendy Han was unmoved.

Lin Qingwan looked at him and said, "I'll be a hostage for you, how is this sincerity?" ”

Yi Han's face changed, and he couldn't help but take a step forward, "Grandma? ”

Lin Qingwan raised her hand to stop him, her eyes were still fixed on Wen Dihan, and said: "I am the grandson of Lin Ying, since the third prince can operate such a wide intelligence network under the Jiangnan management of my Daliang, then I should know that I am still the actual ruler of the Lin family, and the imperial court is willing to send me to negotiate peace, which shows my weight in the court, so I came to be this hostage, enough to exchange the credit of the third prince, right?" ”

Wendy Han thought thoughtfully.

Of course he knew Lin Qingwan, and it could be said that although they met for the first time, they had exchanged hands more than once.

He stayed in Jiangnan and wanted to kill their aunts and nephews more than once, but he never found a chance, and his only shot also suffered heavy losses.

That time, they did it without his permission, and then he strictly ordered them not to provoke the Lin clan again.

didn't expect that the nails that were planted in Jiangnan in the end were still pulled out by her, including Zhao Jie, who he had been in business for many years, and all of them were damaged in her hands.

So when his henchmen looked down on her as a daughter, he never let his guard down.

Looking at it now, he still underestimated her courage and dared to come as his hostage, which was equivalent to putting his life in his hands.

Wendy Han finally thought about it seriously.

Lin Qingwan saw that he was moved, so she made persistent efforts and said: "Third prince, once Da Liang repents, you can kill me and hang it on the city gate building, and inform the world, and when the time comes, there will be more people to denounce Da Liang." You must know that I am not only the righteous daughter of His Majesty, but also the scholar of the Lifan Yuan of Daliang, but also the queen of the meritorious Lin Ying. ”

If she dies in such a way, the big beam will be infamous, and the Han people want face and credibility the most, but they are afraid that they really dare not act rashly.

Thinking of this, Wen Dihan laughed and said, "Lord Lin is joking, you are such a beauty, how can I be willing to let you die?" ”

He looked back at the adjutant and said with a blank face: "Why don't you quickly pull those muttons down, and then go and drive some cattle and sheep over, the first time to trade with the county lord, it's not good to lose your trust." ”

Lin Qingwan pursed her lips, and when the two sides finally finished trading, she said, "Third prince, don't worry, when I go back and arrange some things, I will go over to be a hostage." ”

"Then I'll send someone to pick up the county lord tomorrow."

I really don't want to stay longer for a day.

Lin Qingwan nodded, didn't think about delaying the time, and went back with Yi Han and Wu Shilang, who didn't look very good.

"The county lord really wants to be a hostage?"

"As long as Wendy Hanken cooperates, it's worth the risk."

"What if he goes back on his word, detains the county lord as a hostage, and in turn threatens the court?"

"If he wants to do this, he can detain us the first time we go." Lin Qingwan said: "And even if he deducts it, it's useless, and when the time comes, I won't admit my identity." There will be another Lin county lord over there in Suzhou. ”

Yi Han's face changed a few times, Wu Shilang sighed slightly, took a step back, gave Lin Qingwan a deep look, and retreated.

"Why did my aunt teach them to give up on you?"

Lin Qingwan smiled and said, "Can't I think of it if I don't teach them?" I taught better, so that I could earn a reputation for understanding righteousness. ”

Lin Qingwan thought about it and arranged: "Yi Han, you stay and wait for our grain to arrive, and you will have to do a lot of things at that time......

"No, I'm going to go with you!" He was worried enough to let her be a hostage, where would he be left alone?

Lin Qingwan smiled and said, "I think Wen Dihan is sincerely cooperative, he won't do anything to me." ”

"Leave the matter here to Jiang Qian, I'll follow my aunt and grandmother," Yi Han insisted: "If my aunt wants to send information to this side, it will be safer for me to go." ”

Lin Qingwan couldn't convince Yi Han, so he could only go.

Before she left Beijing, she asked Emperor Liang for a batch of grain, and in addition to that batch, she also wrote a letter to Jiangnan and asked them to transport the grain.

But the speed of escorting the grain is slow, and I don't know when it will arrive, and now I can only wait for the batch of grain in the capital to arrive.

The next day, Yi Han selected twenty guards to follow him over to protect Lin Qingwan.

Wendihan sent someone to pick her up, and when she arrived at the camp, she found that Wendihan had set up a tent for her in the northwest corner of the camp, and a group of soldiers stood outside on top of each other, apparently guarding against them.

Wen Dihan's gaze swept over Yi Han and the others, and Lin Qingwan smiled and said, "Why didn't Lord Lin bring the girl, they are all a group of big bosses?" ”

"The road is far away, and we are light and simple, so we don't have a girl with us." Lin Qingwan smiled: "If the third prince has a girl, why don't you lend me two?" ”

"It just so happens that I have two girls under my command who are quite capable, and I will send them to serve the county lord in a while."

"Then thank you to the third prince."

Wen Dihan smiled and said, "No thanks, it's an honor to serve the county lord." ”

When Yi Han took someone to put all her daily necessities into the tent, Wen Dihan smiled and said, "Lord Lin, let's go to the big tent and talk." ”

Lin Qingwan's heart moved, knowing that the peace talks had finally officially begun.
