When Zheng Bin was taken out of prison, he was still stunned.

Ever since he knew that Eastern Qin had sent troops, he understood that it was difficult for their Zheng family to explain this time.

Since he was imprisoned, he has been like ashes, and he has been thinking about why such a rule-abiding businessman as Dongqin would brazenly raise troops.

As a result, he was called out after not spending a full day in prison.

The king added an official to him and asked him to lead the peace talks with the Eastern Qin together with the counselor Ma Yishi!

At first, Zheng Bin thought it was Wang Shang's grace, but after learning about it, he was so frightened that he was cold!

The Eastern Qin soldiers are approaching the city, unstoppable! Roll him out to participate in the peace talks!

The envoys walked on the road, and Ma Yishi did not forget to sarcastically: "Lord Zheng is really exquisite, and he has a good relationship with Dongqin!" ”

Zheng Bin said helplessly: "Master Ma, I still can't figure out why Dongqin will send troops!" ”

Ma Yishi said disdainfully: "The island is barbarian, and when he sees the wealth of Ryukyu, he will naturally have wolf ambitions!" Behind this, there are indispensable villains clamoring. ”

"Master Ma, we don't have to be quick to talk here, now we are all the way, and it is the right thing to pass the peace talks first!" Zheng Bin was powerless to refute.

Ma Yishi snorted and turned his head away from Zheng Bin.

The Ma family is also from the thirty-six surnames of Kumejima, but these big surnames have long been contradictory because of the entanglement of interests.

The group went out of the city gate, and in a short time they reached the barracks.

After being searched, Zheng Bin, Ma Yishi, and two retinues were put into the main account.

Inside the main tent was a table, made of several planks and benches, and a white cloth on top.

An Shan, missionary He Jing, Zhang Sanfeng, and several other recorders have already taken their seats.

As soon as Zheng Bin entered, he stood a little at a loss, bowing but not knowing what to say.

Ma Yishi trembled slightly, especially when he saw Zhang Sanfeng and An Shan's tattooed faces, he shouted in his heart, barbarian!

"Lord Zheng, I haven't seen you for a long time, but I'm still healthy!" It was Zhang Sanfeng who broke the silence first.

Zheng Bin smiled bitterly and said, "Your Excellency, I'm worried about it, it's been ...... lately." It's been good lately! Right...... By the way, ......."

At the urging, one of the attendants immediately took out a booklet.

"Ladies and gentlemen of Eastern Qin, this ...... These are some of the king's thoughts! ”

"No!" An San stretched out his hand to stop: "No gifts, no politeness!" This time the army is purely for the sake of seeking an explanation, your lord has humiliated our monarch, damaged our country's dignity, and violated our country's sovereignty, and our country has no choice but to send troops! ”

"This ......" Zheng Bin smiled flatteringly: "My king...... My king has something inconsiderate, please let the general say it clearly! ”

"What have you done that you still need me to remind? Do you want me to go into the city myself and speak to your lord? An San said sharply.

Zheng Bin didn't know what to say, and was thinking in his heart what did Dong Qin want to do?

Ma Yishi thought about it, but felt that this was because the Eastern Qin did not accept the Ryukyu Kingdom as its suzerain, so this argument was to let the Ryukyu be called a minister?

"That's it! Sit down first! Zhang Sanfeng made a gesture of please.

Zheng Bin hesitated, stepped forward and sat down, and Ma Yishi also sat down on the side.

Ansan waved his hand, and immediately a soldier handed over a piece of paperwork.

"We advocate that there are only three articles, one is compensation, two are punished for traitors, and three are signed!" Ansan said coldly.

Zheng Bin and Ma Yishi both took a copy, and after the two flipped through it, their expressions were completely different.

"I don't have the right to call the shots on this clause!" Zheng Bin said after reading it.

Ma Yishi said in a deep voice: "It's okay to pay compensation, but it's not okay to lease Kume Island!" ”

"No way!" An San said with a smile: "This lord, please make it clear that the ambassador for the peace talks that we are asking for is Zheng Bin Zheng, so you have the right to speak here?" Could it be that you are the traitor who needs to be punished? ”

Zheng Bin's heart trembled, and he looked at Anshan fiercely, and then looked back at Ma Yishi.

Ma Yishi panicked and swallowed his saliva unconsciously.

"Before leaving, the monarch said that this treaty is not allowed to be changed, and if it is not signed, it will be beaten! Having captured all the Ryukyus, we can be regarded as expanding our territory! Ansan made another threat.

Zheng Bin's mind is alive, his friendship with the Eastern Qin, and now the ministers of the whole Ryukyu know that even if he is towards the Ryukyus, he can't please him, but if he has the support of the Eastern Qin people, this way will be lively!

Thinking of this, he was faintly excited, the soldiers of Eastern Qin were so strong, with the thigh of Eastern Qin, I was afraid that the king of Ryukyu would not dare to touch their Zheng family!

"Detaining me all over the door indiscriminately, this is the king, you are unkind first!" Zheng Bin thought to himself and thought of an excellent excuse for himself.

"Don't worry, the general will definitely give the general an answer after I ask the king about this treaty!" Zheng Bin arched his hand and said: "It's just that the general said to punish the traitors, this matter is ......."

"Who the traitor is, Lord Zheng should know!" Zhang Sanfeng answered.

Zheng Bin was overjoyed: "This matter still needs to be investigated by the lower officials, and I believe that an answer will be given to the general in the near future!" ”

Ansan smiled and said, "Very good! The deadline is one day, as long as you sign the contract, I, Dongqin, will speak and withdraw immediately! I don't want you Ryukyu to be a tribute, and I won't occupy an inch of your land, and Kume Island is only leased for 20 years! ”

Zheng Bin nodded, and hurriedly took the treaty to leave.

Ma Yishi was frightened inexplicably at the moment, and after he followed Zheng Bin out of the big tent, he hurriedly said, "Lord Zheng, just ...... Fang Cai is losing his words! ”

Zheng Bin looked up at the clear sky, and said smugly: "What Master Ma said is what he said there, Lord Ma argued with reason in front of the Qin thief, and the lower officials can see it clearly!" ”

"Lord Zheng, do you have a clue about this traitor?" Ma Yishi flattered.

"Yes!" Zheng Bin said with a smile: "This traitorous minister, naturally, is an official who has handled the matter of the Eastern Qin Visit, Master Ma, do you say?" ”

"Yes! That's right! It is they who blind the Holy Hearing. ”

Zheng Bin nodded: "Then Master Ma, this ...... The Zheng family is famous, there are fewer shops, what do you say is the best business over there? ”

Ma Yishi secretly scolded Yu Chen, but said: "Lord Zheng wants a famous shop, it just so happens that my Ma family has more than a dozen shops ready to change hands, Lord Zheng is interested?" ”

"Master Ma!" Zheng Bin smiled happily: "Fortunately, you are also an ambassador for peace talks!" Otherwise, if it were someone else, hey, I wouldn't know who the traitor was, and I would ...... the king later."

"Don't worry, you know what to expect!"

Zheng Bin laughed, his pace was much brisker, and he shouted in his heart: "Dong Qin's thighs are the thickest!" ”

…………

Ryukyu Royal Palace.

Looking at every clause of this treaty, Shang Zhen was very surprised.

Not surprised by being too harsh, but surprised by being loose.

First, do not call the ministers a tribute, and second, the indemnity is only 50,000 taels of silver.

The only thing that is unacceptable is the garrison of Kume Island, but the number of people is also explained, saying that it will only be stationed 300 people.

Are the people of Eastern Qin really credible? The Eastern Qin people came from afar, just for these terms?

"Zheng Bin, this Dongqin person has no other requirements besides?"

"Yes, there is another one, which says that it is to punish traitors!" Zheng Bin answered.

"Traitor?"

"Exactly! The meaning of the Eastern Qin is that our country treats them with tributary courtesy, humiliates the monarch of the Eastern Qin, damages the national dignity of the Eastern Qin, and what sovereignty is there! If you don't do the first evil, it will be difficult for the people to be angry! Zheng Bin said respectfully.

"Who's the first evil?"

"Dong Qin named the first evil, the first evil is the head of the Ryukyu civil servants! That is, the Minister of State! Zheng Bin said in a deep voice.

"No!" Shang Zhen said sharply: "Dealing with the prime minister, where is the face of the court?" ”

"Your Majesty, the deadline is only one day!" Zheng Bin reminded, and stood respectfully without saying a word.

Shang Zhen was silent, the Eastern Qin soldiers outside were arrogant, and the collapsed city wall portal was opened, not to mention a day, as long as it took half a day for the Eastern Qin soldiers to enter the palace.

But this matter cannot be discussed in the court, and he does not want to sign this treaty in person.

After thinking about it, he found a way to have both worlds, let the minister of state approve the treaty, and then dispose of him for this reason.
