Chapter 413: Deng Jian

If Sima Fa was mad because of Ning Ze's words, he would not be qualified to sit in today's position.

He knew that Ning Ze deliberately said this, firstly, to take advantage of his words, and secondly, if Sima Fa wanted to do it on the spur of the moment, the Xuanjiao that had made a guarantee would have to intervene in it, which was equivalent to pushing this religion with huge power and upholding neutrality and non-intervention to Ning Ze.

Sima Fa is not so stupid, he will definitely not be hit.

If you take advantage of it, you will take advantage of it, and you will not lose hairs. When it comes to actual interests, Sima Fa will never make concessions.

The female dependents were arranged to the post house, Ning Ze only brought a few guards, and all the five hundred musketeers were sent to protect them.

Although there is a guarantee from Xuanjiao, it is better to be cautious.

He himself followed Sima Fa to the Daliang County Office, and first negotiated the border dispute and armistice between the two sides as an envoy, after all, he ostensibly came for this matter.

Wine and food had already been prepared in the official office, and Sima Fa took the civil and military officials and asked Ning Ze to enter with a polite attitude.

Ning Ze was also amiable on the surface, and his eyes looked around along the way.

Halfway through, he stopped, and his eyes fell on the low-level generals who were responsible for leading the team to greet him, a bearded general who looked relatively old.

Suddenly stared at by Ning Ze, the bearded general was startled, and thought that he had done something wrong, and he was suddenly a little worried. But he didn't dare to ask, the other party was a big man who controlled the entire Huaguo, and if he said the wrong thing, it would be troublesome!

As he walked, seeing Ning Ze suddenly stop, Sima Fa asked suspiciously, "Does the prince know this person?"

The surrounding civil and military officials also looked at the bearded general, revealing doubts.

When the bearded military general heard this, he quickly shook his head and denied it: "The little one has never seen King Danyang!"

Ning Ze laughed: "Lone just saw that this general's face was different from ordinary people, and he must have something extraordinary, so stop and take a look at it, forgive me!"

Seeing Ning Ze open his mouth to explain, the bearded military general secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

If someone misunderstands that you know or have dealings with the enemy's high-level officials, it's no joke!

"Oh?" Sima Fa looked at the bearded general curiously, "The prince still looks at him?"

"I understand a little, I understand a little!" Ning Ze pretended to be mysterious, pointed to the bearded general and said, "This general's face is extremely extraordinary, very human, I don't know what position he is in now?"

Seeing Ning Ze ask, the bearded military general hesitated and turned to Sima Fa, not daring to answer easily.

Of course, Sima Fa didn't know this kind of too low-level general, seeing that he looked at him and asked for instructions with his eyes, although he felt that it was a waste of time, but after all, Ning Ze came as an envoy and couldn't be lazy, so he nodded.

The bearded military general got a response, and then he replied to Ning Ze with confidence: "The last general, Deng Jian, is now the military marquis of Daliang County." ”

"Marquis?" Ning Ze showed a regretful expression, "How many years has the general been in the army?"

"Don't dare to be called a general!" Deng Jian replied, "The last general has been in the army for ten years!"

Ten years is ten years.

"It's a pity, it's a pity!" Ning Ze shook his head regretfully, "The general's posture of a dragon and tiger, he has been in the army for ten years or is still a military marquis, I really can't believe it! Even if he is an ordinary soldier under a lonely man, as long as he makes military achievements, he can rise step by step, and a figure like a general, let alone ten years in our army, will not be able to be a military marquis after fighting a few tough battles and making contributions, and the position of general is more than enough! It's a pity! Could it be that the general has been wronged in the past ten years?"

The bearded military general Deng Jian's eyelids moved, and he hurriedly bowed his head and surrendered his hand: "No! ”

What kind of joke, wouldn't it be asking for trouble to say that you have grievances on such an occasion? Especially in front of Sima Fa, the Metropolitan Governor, and all the top bosses of Daliang County also accompanied Ning Ze, and a fool would follow Ning Ze in front of everyone.

Who can find something unpleasant for themselves?

Sima Fa looked at Ning Ze, and then at Deng Jian, thinking about what Ning Ze wanted to do.

Is he really able to see Deng Jian's ability through his face, or is he purely teasing himself through Deng Jian?

Based on the current situation, it seems that the latter is more likely.

Besides, such a small person is not in his eyes.

So he smiled and said to Ning Ze: "Lord Wang, we still have business to discuss, there is no need to waste time here." The feast is ready, please move!"

"Yes, yes! Ning Ze laughed, stretched out his hand and patted Deng Jian on the shoulder three times, "It's a pity, it's a pity!"

Then he turned around and followed Sima Fa in the direction of the official office.

Deng Jian looked confused and didn't know how to react.

Feeling the colleagues around him, and even as Ning Ze left, Taishou looked at him, and said in his heart, what kind of unwarranted disaster is this! I didn't come here voluntarily, but I encountered such a thing.

It's not that I took the initiative to talk to Danyang Wang Ning Ze, why are you staring at me with such eyes?

That Danyang Wang Ning Ze too, do I know you? You just say these things to your face! Ten years only mixed with the position of military marquis, everyone knows that there is a problem, and you can talk about it?

I'm also stupid, why did I answer honestly just now?

But in that case, there seems to be no way not to answer......

Does Deng Jian have grievances?

Of course!

Otherwise, Ning Ze would not pick him.

The reason why he was selected is mainly because his loyalty is very low, and at the same time, the force attribute and command are not bad, all of which have reached more than 80.

Low loyalty indicates that he is dissatisfied with the forces to which he is currently loyal, and is an easy target to be wooed into.

Not to mention that Deng Jian was sullen, he was uncomfortable with the eyes of his colleagues, and he was irritable.

Ning Ze followed Sima Fa and the civil and military officials of the Liang State into the official office, and took a seat in the guest seat near Sima Fa.

The civil and military officials also sat down separately, the banquet had already been arranged, and the song and dance entered the hall and began to perform.

Sima Fa picked up the wine glass, smiled at Ning Ze and said: "The prince came in person as an envoy, which shows his sincerity!

Ning Ze glanced at the wine jug in front of him, smiled and shook his head: "Lone never drinks, can you change it to tea?"

"As a man, how can you say that you don't drink?" Sima Fa laughed, "The dog is still young and can still drink heavily, but the prince is not as good as a child?"

Ning Ze glanced at Sima Fa, the other party had so much information about himself, how could he not know that he never drank?

I'm afraid it's deliberate.

Moreover, Sima Fa made fun of his own son, saying that he was not as good as a child, which was deliberately provoked.

There are comings and goings!

Ning Ze can use words to squeeze Sima Fa, and Sima Fa can certainly return the color.

Surrounded by Liang State officials, they were naturally in a good mood when they saw this scene, waiting for Ning Ze to respond.

Ning Ze thought about it for a while, since you didn't change it for me and teased me with this, then I can't follow you and tell you to see jokes.

So he stretched out his hand and raised the glass and jug, and covered it with his right hand.

Instantly put the flask into the luxury carry, and take out a pot of precious tea from the brand's carry, and pour it into the glass.

All the Liang State officials at the scene, including Sima Fa, only saw Ning Ze pick up the wine jug, and then suddenly turn it into a teapot and pour out a cup of tea, which was as uncomfortable as eating a fly.

I wanted to squeeze him, but I didn't expect people to turn wine into tea directly.

Sima Fa's eyes narrowed slightly: "The prince has great powers, but men don't drink, so they can't say it!"

"This is a fallacy!" Ning Ze took a sip of the teacup, revealing a comfortable expression, "Drinking alcohol can increase pride, and drinking tea can add charm." Lonely is a literati, why not drink tea alone?"

you literati! Can you defeat Tang Niu in a heads-up situation, is there a literati like you? Sima Fa and the civil and military officials of the Liang State on the scene both had the same idea in their hearts.

failed to take advantage of the mouth, Sima Fa no longer dwelled on this topic, and let Ning Ze replace the wine with tea, and the two sides enjoyed the song and dance.

During the period, there were no moths, it was just a very ordinary banquet.

The post station has also sent people to deliver wine and food to entertain Ning Ze's wife and five hundred musketeers.

Until the end of the banquet, everyone had eaten and drunk, and the singing and dancing were withdrawn and the main topic was entered.

"Lord, are you still satisfied with this banquet?" asked Sima Fa.

Ning Ze smiled and nodded: "Your hospitality is very satisfying!"

"It's good to be satisfied!" Sima Fa said, "We should talk about business when we are full of wine and food." ”

"Okay, then let's get down to business!" Ning Ze nodded.

"The prince led his troops to come and plot against the land of Mizhou in my country, which coincided with the centennial celebration of Xuanjiao, so he withdrew his troops. It's just that the prince's soldiers and horses are still eyeing the border, and there is no sincerity!"

Ning Ze smiled when he heard this: "As far as Gu knows, the distance of your army's retreat is still a cut short of what our army wants to do! This shouldn't be the other way around, please continue to retreat?"

"The prince's words are wrong!" Sima Fa said, "Your army is leading the troops to attack, and our army is on the defensive. What's more, our army is within our own territory, how can we retreat again and again?"

"It's as if our army is not in our own territory!" Ning Ze replied, "Our army has long since retreated to the border of Yuanzhou and has not stayed in Mizhou. Furthermore, the consequences must be clarified. If it weren't for your plundering tactics that endangered our borders, why would our side have increased our troops? In the final analysis, it was not our initiative that was your army's plundering tactics, which forced us to respond!"

"The raiding tactics are learned from the prince!" Sima Fa squinted his eyes and said, "We are helpless too. ”

"That's different! This tactic is used when dealing with your offensive. You can directly harass many of our borders. ”

The two argued for a long time on this issue.

In the end, Sima Fa said: "Entangled in this, it seems that you will never achieve a result, and if you continue to discuss it, you may be able to push it to the reign of Emperor You!

"By substantive, what do you mean by ......?"

"Since it is a negotiation between the two sides, of course, each has to make trade-offs. Sima Fa said, "In order to ensure that there are no accidents in the centennial celebration of Xuanjiao, you and I will each withdraw thirty miles back. ”

"Thirty miles each?" Ning Ze pinched his chin and thought for a while, "There's no need! At this distance, as long as either side doesn't deliberately advance, it is basically impossible to fight." In this way, simply retreat five miles each. ”

"Five miles is too little!"

"Nonsense! You retreat five miles anyway, there is nothing, and if we retreat any further, it will be equivalent to giving up a few remote villages, who will protect those people?" Ning Ze rolled his eyes, "Retreat five miles back to each other, or simply don't move!"
