[913] Negotiations begin

The scribe who followed Xiao Fuling, the demon soul who was born with night eyes worked hard in the dark, recording the words of the second child word for word.

As a professional scrivener, no matter how fast the second child speaks, his pen speed can keep up.

In the rustle of writing, the second child suddenly made an opinion: "Is there any wine, can you give me a sip?"

After he said this in a trembling voice, he looked at Xiao Fuling opposite.

Xiao Fuling thought about it quickly, and felt that giving him some wine could give the second child more courage, and after saying more, she nodded and said to her subordinates: "Go to my tent and get a small glass of Qingtian wine." ”。

Qingtian sake is not a strong liquor, it is made from Qingtian core, and you will not get drunk after two sips.

While waiting for the drink, the second child didn't say a word.

The same is true for Xiao Fuling, who is much more patient now than when she detected the second child.

After a while, the guard brought a small jug of wine and handed it down the fence. These guards are all from the Yuque Palace, and they still have a lot of work experience. This wine jug was deliberately made of wood to prevent the second child in the door from committing suicide, and he didn't dare to take copper or porcelain at all.

The second child stretched out his trembling hand, took the wine jug and drank it from the spout.

"The ghosts who have doubted us, those who have deeply rooted in the center of their brains the belief that our country will create a peaceful and bright future, have been executed by us. Generally, mining disasters are used. After a few sips of wine, the second child spoke again: "A mine in the Howling Wind Plain has a limit on the number of people and the number of mining disasters, and the number and number of times of a limit must be sealed." So the wells you have seen along the way, the closed mines can not only be used to transport minerals, but also, and allow us to use them to kill. ”。

Speaking of this, the second child lowered his head and didn't let Xiao Lingling and the other ghosts outside the door see his expression.

And Xiao Fuling was already furious, clutching the armrests of the chair with both hands. If the second child looked up, he could see a little female ghost who was not very old and slim, and the hideousness and iron green on her face could scare him.

And if Xiao Fuling doesn't do this, she will immediately open the prison door and kill the second child.

"How many ghosts have you buried alive with the number of people and mining disasters that have taken advantage of these restrictions?" After a long time, Xiao Fuling gritted her teeth and said, "You have reckless human life, and you deserve death!"

The second child behind the cell door trembled, his eyes were full of fear and fear, and he still didn't dare to raise his head.

"Say!" he was silent again, and Xiao Lingling was even more furious, and when he shouted angrily, he had already broken the handrail in his hand.

"I can't remember clearly, most of them were killed by Yu Langguan by taking advantage of his position. The second child lowered his head lower, and his voice was softer, his voice was like a thin mosquito, and he replied tremblingly: "I don't know how many people, these Yu Langguan are the executors." We also know that China's military and political affairs are separated, do not interfere with each other, and have an independent judiciary that is not subject to interference by any organ, organization, or individual. Thrush was suspicious of Yu Langguan, but Thrush had no evidence, let alone could not arbitrarily transfer troops to surround Yu Langguan's mansion to raid his house, she did not have this right. The Chacha Division has no evidence, and the garrison cannot cooperate with the Chacha Division's ghosts to arrest and encircle us, not to mention that the Chacha Division does not even have a list, and does not know who to arrest ......."

Xiao Fuling, who was even more angry, glared at the second child who stopped abruptly before she finished speaking, the muscles in the corners of her eyes twitched non-stop, not afraid but angry, extremely angry.

Xiao Fuling's chest was now full of anger.

"You tried to assassinate Lord Thrush, didn't you?" she asked, angrily.

These are also said by some officials of the thrush and the government, saying that in the past year since the thrush came here, he has experienced a lot of assassinations and assassinations, and every time he faces people who dare to die, he dies for a lifetime.

And Xiao Fuling has also seen the shocking wounds on the thrush's body.

At first, they all thought that they were assassins sent by hostile forces and ghost countries. Including the thrush, too.

Now it seems that it may not necessarily be sent by the enemy. Because the thrush had suspected them, just there was no evidence.

"I've tried a few times, but it didn't work. The second child in the cell door nodded and said, "Most of the guards around Lord Thrush are members of the Xiao family's army in the past, brave and well-equipped. After the failure, we didn't dare to do it anymore, and the fox ghosts in the shopkeeper didn't dare to act again. ”。

"You go on with the trial, and don't forget to record every word. Xiao Fuling stood up, took the scribe's record, looked at it through the light of the lantern in the jailer's hand, and said, "I'll go out for a while." ”。

She was afraid that if she stayed here any longer, the more she heard, the more difficult it would be to control her anger, and then she would not be able to help but kill the second child.

But the second child can't die, and Xiao Fuling can't kill him and has no right. What's more, he promised the second child, as long as he cooperated, he could be sentenced, which was approved by Xiao Shizhu and the ghost mother together, Xiao Lingling couldn't disobey their orders, and she wouldn't disobey them.

She could only choose to leave for a while, and not face the second child for the time being to calm the anger churning in her chest......

The waves crash on the shore, and the grass and trees on Shuoyue Island sway in the sea breeze. Nothing has changed here, and it has not changed because of the arrival of the ghost envoy of the Northern Yin Dynasty.

Workers, peasants, and merchants, everything is business as usual.

However, the matter of the Northern Yin Dynasty sending ghost envoys soon spread from here. The versions have become many because they have been passed on from one to the other.

But they are all inseparable from a theme, the Beiyin Dynasty wants to come to negotiate peace with the Nine Hidden Kingdoms, and they are compromised.

In the near future, this will make the Nine Shadows Kingdom even more famous.

The sea breeze rushed up to the island and hit the small mountain city on the island.

Ying Zhao and Jiang Ziwen stood on the edge of the cliff on the top of the mountain against the mountain wind, overlooking the ghosts who had begun spring sowing at the bottom of the mountain, as small as ants.

The two ghosts didn't speak, just quietly looking at the scenery down the mountain.

In the distance behind them, there was the government office of Xiaoyu Mountain City, which was putting up lights at this time.

Today is the day of peace talks, and all peace talks will begin in the courtyard in front of the main hall of the government at the back.

Therefore, today's Shuoyue Island Mansion is more lively than in the past.

Ying Zhao took Lu Zhidao and they played for two or three days, and finally had a comfortable time, and they were ready to start peace talks today.

The ghost soldiers and ghost officials who came in and out were busy arranging the venue in the palace, and Ji Kang and Yu Xuan were in charge. As for Ying Zhao and Jiang Ziwen, who wanted to represent Jiuyouguo at the negotiation table, they took advantage of the rare leisure that was still setting up the venue and stood outside the door to watch the scene.

"To be honest, I don't think Wei Zheng will lose his temper today for the sake of face. Jiang Ziwen was silent for a long time, and said to Ying Zhao: "Lord Ying Zhao, I know this Wei Zheng too well, he is not a good-tempered human soul, straight and smelly. It's very unpleasant to say angry words, and I don't think he will necessarily give us a good look. ”。

"What are your plans?" After a pause, Jiang Ziwen asked again.

"Let's keep things changing. After thinking for a while, Ying Zhao said without hurry.

They deduced that Emperor Xudu sent Wei Zheng not only to negotiate, but also to use Wei Zheng's temper to create momentum in order to bargain with the Nine Shadows Kingdom. But Xiao Shizhu will not give the Beiyin Dynasty a chance to bargain.

In this negotiation, the Nine Shadows Kingdom must have the upper hand.

This is crucial.

"At that moment, you don't talk much, and basically say things that don't back down. You are the supreme commander of the local area, and you went to quarrel with Wei Zheng's madman, and there is no majesty. Jiang Ziwen told Ying Zhao again.

"Good. Ying Zhao had no objections at all, he and Xiao Shizhu trusted Jiang Ziwen and Ji Kang not only because of their loyalty, but also because of their trust. So he nodded very happily.

"Two adults, the venue has been set up. At this time, Ji Kang came up from behind them, stood side by side with them on the edge of the cliff, and looked down the mountain with the railing, and after seeing no special scenery, he asked, "What are you looking at? Let you watch for such a long time, I thought that there was a female ghost bathing in the river under the mountain in broad daylight." ”。

Ying Zhao and Jiang Ziwen smiled, they knew that Ji Kang was joking with them. So, Jiang Ziwen couldn't help but joke: "I also see female ghosts, how can Yingzhao Dashuai look at female ghosts? ”。

If you don't want to be the king of Qin Guang, Jiang Ziwen doesn't have to hold a shelf.

In addition, I have been with Yingzhao and these ghosts for a long time, and it is so natural to joke.

"Okay, I'll take you to see the mare someday. Ying Zhao was not angry but happy, and after laughing a few times, he took Jiang Ziwen and Ji Kang and turned around and headed towards the mansion.

The lights of the underworld are different from those in the world. Today's government office does not have red lanterns and red flowers, and all the flowers and requiem flags made of white silk are hung.

In the middle of the courtyard outside the main hall, a rectangular table was placed with a white cloth on it. There are five chairs on the left and right, facing the direction of the gate, and a special table and chair are also set up above the long table, which is the location of Yingzhao.

In the surrounding corridor and at the entrance of the main hall, there stood the soldiers of the Nine Shadows Kingdom, each of which was no more than three feet apart.

The heavily guarded government is even more heavily guarded today.

On the left and right of the long table, about half a foot apart, there were several small tables arranged on each side, which were the places where the scribes on both sides made them.

All the words on this table today, even if they are fart chats and polite words, cannot be left behind, and they must be recorded.

The scribes of the Nine Shadows Kingdom were already in place, and sat down at the small table on the left side, no more, no less than exactly five, and the five small tables on the left side were all filled, one was exactly one.

Jiang Ziwen and Ji Kang also sat down on the left side of the long table, and there were three other officials of the Nine Shadows Kingdom, all of whom were secretaries of Ying Zhao Ji Kang and Jiang Ziwen.

And Ying Zhao also sat on the top of the long table.

Yu Xuan, who was in charge of security today, walked around the neighborhood, and after confirming that there were no loopholes in the security work, he walked to Ying Zhao's side and stood still, and came to stand with his back hand.

Several officials of the Nine Shadows Kingdom brought in pens, ink, paper, inkstones and abacus, and placed them on the table one by one, all of which were placed in the positions of the scribes.

Because when it comes to the issue of compensation, this calculation is indispensable.

Then there is tea and thirst-quenching fruits, which are designed to quench the throats and thirst of the negotiators when their mouths are dry.

To say that this Nine Shadows Country, it is a bit that does not pay attention to the ghost envoys. However, they are well prepared for this peace talks, and they are bound to win.

Soon, the future of the Nine Shadows Kingdom and the Northern Yin Dynasty will be decided on this table.

A small long table, no more than five feet wide, is a table where negotiators on both sides will decide the interests of both sides for years to come, if not decades or even centuries.

This is a battlefield without gunpowder, but it is as harsh as the battlefield.

Quarrels and red faces are inevitable, Ying Zhao, Jiang Ziwen, and Ji Kang are also mentally prepared.

And their principle is that most things will not be compromised.

Lu Zhidao and Wei Zheng, who have not yet come, also know this.

"Yu Xuan. Ying Zhao glanced at the empty position on the right side of the long table, and said, "Go and bring the ghost envoy of the Beiyin Dynasty over, and we will start negotiating." ”。
