Inside the palace of the North Far Castle.

"I wonder what kind of quid pro quo Chenhui proposed to make his brother, who has always been arrogant, make such a big 'sacrifice' to agree to peace talks with the Central Plains. The prince sat on the tiger skin recliner in the study and asked leisurely.

"Sacrifice? It is not a sacrifice at all, and his request seems to me to be nothing more than fratricide, and I have only made a knife," said the lord of the kingdom unhurriedly, "and if you see the contents of his and the letter, you will feel that we have not sacrificed anything at all-" At this point, the lord of the kingdom paused, "Xufeng Chenhui, he wants a result that is very similar to yours. ”

"Oh?"

According to him, what he wants is also a way of eternal peace and balance between the two sides, which is exactly what you think. ”

The prince was stunned for a moment, and then laughed heartily: "If I remember correctly, this Xufeng Chenhui has just become the crown prince, and my brother can trust the emperor of the Central Plains to listen to the path he took?"

"That's another matter," the lord paused, looked at his younger brother, and said something in his words, "He promised that if Ma Siguo agreed to peace talks, he would definitely send two soul jades to Beiyuan City within ten days." ”

This means that he is blaming the prince for handing over the soul jade to Chen Yin.

Seeing the expression on his brother's face, the lord continued, "You guessed correctly, it was two of the five jades - two of the only three left in the capital-"

The prince came back to his senses, and the words of the lord of the country not only made him pause, but became even more confused: "Separate the soul jade, one in the Central Plains, and two of us, this is not the situation I hoped for at the beginning and my brother opposed, but then I also figured it out, this will only make the two sides eyeing the soul jade in each other's hands - and now even if the two countries succeed in peace talks, it is impossible to use this to contain each other in this way." ”

"It's really impossible, I guess Xufeng Chenhui, like me, didn't think it was possible. ”

"Brother's mind really hasn't changed, and he still wants to use the power of these five soul jades to annex the Central Plains?"

"It's not just the Central Plains-" The lord of the country said coldly, "Right now, this Xufeng child wants to gain a firm foothold, and at present, one of the three sons of the Central Plains Emperor has died, and this battle is already a burden to Xufeng Chenhui, so what he promised will definitely be done." ”

Beiyuan City didn't know that the prince of the Central Plains was actually the only one left.

"Brother has ever thought that Xufeng Chenhui is not a stupid person, he will be willing to hand over the two jades to us must be thoughtful, knowing that our forces will not be able to attack the Central Plains in five or six years, and we will not be able to defend these two, and taking them back for the Central Plains is like taking something from a bag - as my brother said, Xufeng Chenhui is only an expedient measure, so when he has a firm foothold, it will only be a matter of time before he attacks my Ma Si Kingdom to regain these two soul jades, and a peace negotiation document is useless at all. At that time, if the soul jade is placed in the country of Masi, it will only be a thing that causes trouble. ”

The lord of the country nodded while listening, and when the prince finished speaking, he said slowly: "What you said is right, but what if we collected five soul jades before this?"

The prince seemed to understand a little, but his eldest brother didn't give him a chance to speak, but continued to say: "One in the Central Plains, two of us, the key to this matter is not who has the most soul jade in their hands, but one person - Chen Yin, who holds the other two soul jades, as long as he is on our side, then it will be easy for him to take the soul jade in the Central Plains." ”

"Chen Yin, it's not easy to ask him to help with this. ”

"It's not easy to say, it's not difficult to say," the lord of the country got up and walked up to the prince with a tiger's back, "You go and do something, find Qi Yingli and arrest her back." ”

"When it comes to finding people, Tianluozhuang and Shaxinglou are very good, and I'm afraid it will only be half the effort if I go. The prince prevaricated.

"I think it will be half the effort to find them? Qi Yingli was rescued This thing must not be Chen Yin's doing, the road in the imperial tomb is winding, only our people know the way, and Chen Yin has a lot of personal relations with the people in Tianluozhuang and Shaxinglou, so most of them are the people in these two places to help, I don't want to chase this matter deeply, but I won't use them again in Qi Yingli's matter," the lord patted the prince on the shoulder, "Okay, you have rested enough, I also told you everything you should know, go and do it quickly." ”

"Brother," the prince got up lazily, "You said it's been so many days, where can I go to find Qi Yingli for you?"

"Peace of mind, I have asked someone to investigate in the city for a few days, Qi Yingli is not in Beiyuan City, she should be sent back to the Central Plains," the lord said, "So you can set off and go to Jinghua City in the Central Plains as an envoy to the peace talks and find Qi Yingli." ”

As soon as the prince opened his mouth to speak, the lord of the country immediately raised his voice and said: "Don't push back, even if Chen Yin and Qi Yingli converge, I believe you can take Qi Yingli away, the only trouble is that time is pressing, you go to me to get this matter done, don't say more." ”

The prince clenched his fists and bowed, so he had to respond: "How long is the time limit?"

"I have already chosen the people of the envoy group, you will set off for the Central Plains today, and before the end of the peace talks, you must find them and bring them back. ”
