In the Heiankyo Imperial Palace, Fujiwara Yoritsu sat in front of the jade steps with a solemn expression, and his brother Fujiwara Kyotsu sat at the bottom, and a bamboo curtain hung on the high jade steps, and behind the bamboo curtain was the emperor of Japan.

"So, is that the end of the war?" Behind the bamboo curtain sounded the clear and cold voice of Emperor Sonhito, who was clearly dissatisfied with Fujiwara Yoritsu's proposal.

Fujiwara Yoritsu straightened his waist and said unhurriedly: "This battle is actually meaningless, the Song army attacked the Yu country, completely annihilated the army of the Kiyohara clan, and has cracked our plan to attack Abe Yorishi before and after, the Song army will not sit idly by and watch the Abe family fall, and if it continues, except for the army of Minamoto Yoriyoshi being exhausted little by little, there will be no other result, and our national strength can no longer bear it, and I implore His Majesty the Emperor to recall Minamoto Yoriyoshi and start armistice negotiations." ”

Behind Minamoto Yoriyoshi's attack on the Abe family was a power struggle between Emperor Sonhito and the Sekibai Fujiwara clan, Emperor Sonhito tried to support the rise of the samurai class by launching a war against the Tohoku Province, against the Fujiwara clan, who monopolized the power of the court, and saw that he was about to win, but unexpectedly, the Song army suddenly sent troops and accurately sniped Emperor Sonhito's plan, so how could Emperor Sonhito not be angry, he even suspected that Fujiwara Yoritsu secretly colluded with the Song army to sabotage his plan.

But anger is anger, Emperor Zunhito still has to face the reality, Fujiwara Yoritsu is convincing, there is no point in fighting again, the national strength cannot bear it, etc., Sonhito understands that what Fujiwara Yoritsu said is the truth, and he is also worried that Minamoto Yoritsu will be exhausted in this doomed and unwinnable war, so it is better to preserve his strength and endure it for the time being.

After being silent for a long time, Emperor Zunhito said coldly: "I remember that the agreement with the Song Dynasty clearly stated that the Song army was not allowed to intervene in the Japanese Civil War, why did they go back on their word and not keep their promises, what is the meaning of such an agreement?" ”

Fujiwara Kyotong, who was sitting at the bottom, jumped in his heart, but he personally negotiated and signed the agreement with the Song Dynasty, and the emperor asked this, isn't he questioning himself?

Fujiwara Sect Channel: "Your Majesty the Emperor Kaiyu, the army of the Deyu Kingdom is not the imperial army, but the private army of the three wealthy families, the Song Army sent troops out of the Yu Country to exterminate this army, in a strict sense, they did not directly intervene in the Japanese Civil War, and from the letter written by Fanning, it is the Qingyuan family that first intervened in the Ezo land and provoked the Ezo people to fight against the Song army, which gave the Song army an excuse to send troops out of the Feather Country, and the ministers thought that this matter had nothing to do with the treaty. ”

Zunren snorted lightly, and asked Fujiwara Yorido again: "What about Guan Bai's opinion?" ”

"The minister also thinks that Fanning's proposal in the letter is reasonable, stop the war, and use negotiations to solve the current predicament, this may be a feasible way, and the minister thinks it is worth trying!"

Emperor Zunhito was emaciated by this matter, but in the end he was taken the initiative by Fujiwara Yoritsu, and for a while he suddenly felt exhausted, so he said coldly: "I will issue an order to General Minamoto to stop the war, and the rest of the matter will be handled by Sekihaku!" ”

After saying that, he got up and left, and the two attendants hurriedly followed him, leaving only an empty chair behind the bamboo curtain.

"Brother, you ....... about this"

Fujiwara Kyotsu was about to speak, but was stopped by the stern gaze of his brother Fujiwara Yoritsu, and he suddenly realized that this was not the place to speak.

Fujiwara Yoritsu sighed softly, "How difficult it is to mourn the people! ”

He got up and walked out, Fujiwara Kyotsu followed behind him, until he walked out of the inner palace, Fujiwara Yoritsu stopped and said lightly: "You go to Kunzhou and ask why Song Jun didn't keep the agreement?" Intervene in the Japanese Civil War, and then test his attitude. ”

"I understand, let's go as soon as possible in these two days!"

"Nope! Go today. ”

After speaking, Fujiwara Yoritsu quickened his pace and walked away, and Fujiwara Kyotsu stood in place with a wry smile on his face.

........

In the morning, 300 warships sailed into Kunnan Bay, this is the army of the southern expedition to the country of Yu, the three wealthy families of the country of the country have accumulated hundreds of wealth have been looted by the Song army, the fleet is full of millions of taels of gold and silver and 500,000 stone rice, and countless pearls, corals, hawksbill turtles and other jewelry, in addition to 3,000 Japanese ponies and dried fish, fish paste and other items.

Seeing that the handsome ships of the fleet were gradually approaching the dock, Akihito, who was waiting on the dock, shouted urgently: "Second brother, he should be on the first ship." ”

Just three days after Fanning led the army to the expedition, Mingren and Mingli rushed from Bailongchuan Jintian in a hurry, and the fifty Kun people they hired were all withdrawn to the tribe overnight, and it was said that they were going to move south to Japan, and no longer did anything for them, so how could the two brothers not be in a hurry to jump their feet, they loaded the gold sand overnight and hurried back to Tang County, but learned that Fanning had already set out for the expedition.

It took them almost ten days to wait for the news that the fleet had returned to Kunnan Bay, and if it hadn't been for Juppé to stop them, they would have sailed to Dewa Country.

Fanning disembarked from the big ship, and the officials who had been waiting for a long time stepped forward to see him.

Yu Xiaonian bowed and saluted: "Congratulations on the victory of Zhizhou Deyu Country, welcome to the triumphant return!" ”

Fan Ning smiled slightly: "This battle of the Feather Country has gained a lot, you arrange for someone to count all the materials and put them in the warehouse, and the pony will be handed over to the chief officials of the two counties, so that they can distribute it to the people of Kunzhou, so that the people of Kunzhou can also enjoy the dividends of the war." ”

"Arrange it immediately!"

Fanning asked again, "Is there any news from Heianjing?" ”

"Not yet, I still want to ask Zhizhou, do you want us to go to Heianjing?"

Fan Ning shook his head, "The Japanese imperial court will send people over, we don't have to take the initiative, just deal with them according to the explanation in my letter to you, and then go to Heiankyo when the formal negotiations are made." ”

"Ignorance, understood!"

"Let's go get the supplies! I guess someone is going to be in a hurry. ”

The officials looked at Akihito and Mingli brothers, and they couldn't help laughing, these two brothers have been jumping up and down in the official office like big monkeys in the past few days, entangled them enough.

Everyone went to receive the supplies, and Mingli rushed up like a gust of wind, and shouted with a straight neck: "Do you know that we have stopped work for half a month?" ”

Fan Ning smiled and said, "Wouldn't it be nice to let you rest for half a month?" ”

Mingli stomped his foot, "But it's a heavy loss!" ”

Akihito stepped forward and pulled away Mingli, and said with a smile: "This person has already mined sand and has been stupid, don't pay attention to him, brother, what you said last time about recruiting Japanese laborers, do you think you can do it?" ”

"Come home with me!"

Fanning ignored them, got on his horse and ran into the city.

Mingren complained in a low voice, "I told you, he is the chief official of Kunzhou, you have to maintain a minimum of respect, roaring with your neck straight like you, isn't it sweeping his face in public?" ”

Mingli scratched his hair, "I'm not in a hurry!" ”

"Everyone is in a hurry, but no matter how anxious you are, you have to endure it, let's go!"

The two did not ride horses, but followed Fanning far away towards the city.

........

Back home, Fan Ning was relaxed, he didn't go home for half a month, the home completely changed, the furniture was complete, and all kinds of furnishings were on the table, Zhu Pei served tea to the three of them, and smiled at Fan Ning: "The furniture was sent by Yu Changshi, he told me that I will move to Han County soon, so that I don't take out all my things, so as not to pack trouble, husband, when are we going to move!" ”

Fan Ning smiled and said: "I saw the official mansion in half a month, and I was already building the courtyard wall, and it should be good now, at most one more will be moved, maybe it won't take another month." ”

"Alright! Then I'll wait. ”

Fan Ning picked up the teacup and sniffed the dragon tea that Zhu Pei had fried for him, the fragrance of the tea was so fragrant that he was simply intoxicated, he looked at the two sitting opposite him again, and saw that the tea cup of the two was empty, and he looked at himself.

Fan Ning smiled dumbly, pointed at Akihito Mingli and said to Zhu Pei: "The lady will entertain him with ordinary tea next time, it is a waste to give them dragon tea." ”

Zhu Pei smiled and gently slapped her husband's shoulder, "Then you have said that you have your brother!" ”

"Forget it, send these two guys away first."

Fanning took a sip of tea and asked, "How many Japanese laborers do you need, what kind of treatment are you going to give, and how are you settled?" ”

Akihito and Mingli glanced at each other, and Akihito hurriedly said, "Isn't there a rule in the government?" ”

Fanning shook his head, "So far, the government has not let go of private employment of Japanese laborers, and I will officially approve it tomorrow morning, so you have to think about your needs today, how much wages you are prepared to give, and how to settle them." ”

The two discussed in a low voice for a moment, and Akihito said cautiously: "The government gives the Japanese laborers a consistent monthly money, we give it by the day, fifty wen per day, which is always five hundred wen per month, if you want to rest, there is no money, but there is no problem with a full meal, there is a fish every day, one venison for three days, a tent, ten people in a tent, we want to recruit two hundred people, and hire another ten soldiers for protection." ”

Fanning smiled and nodded, "You guys are very smart and think of a way to settle the bill by day, but isn't two hundred too many?" ”

Mingli shook his head, "We have been mining gold for a year, and we have only roughly mined two miles of the river section, and our total river section is ten miles long, and if we want to finish mining within two years, we must increase manpower, especially this year until tomorrow, the imperial court does not tax private gold mining, this year we are going to go crazy for gold, we have already considered this problem, and now we just want to resume work as soon as possible." ”

Fanning didn't care much about the two brothers recruiting 200 laborers, and the upper limit he gave was no more than 500 people in silver mines and 200 people in gold sand fields, and the number of people recruited by the brothers was exactly the upper limit.

Fanning nodded and said: "Then tomorrow the formalities will be completed, all the things that should be bought will be bought, if you are lucky, you will be able to recruit laborers tomorrow afternoon, as for the ten soldiers, I said ugly in front, you must ensure a monthly income of fifteen yuan per person, which is the minimum monthly salary." ”

The two were overjoyed, and Akihito hurriedly said: "No problem, we will give the soldiers twenty yuan of monthly salaries to ensure that there will be wine and meat every day." ”
