The servants served the wine and food to the table like flowing water, and the stage next to it was also playing music and dancing.

Perhaps the atmosphere was oppressive, and the person playing the piano was a little flustered, and even the rhythm of the music was out of order.

Li Yongding listened to the pianist's music, which was very unpleasant, and he was confronted by Sun Zhaoyuan just now, so he sprinkled his anger on the pianist and said: "You, the pianist, dare to be ugly in front of this king." If you are arrogant, don't look at the dancer's beat, ignore the general trend, don't know the practice, and play the rhythm indiscriminately, you are a black sheep, and this king will get rid of it. Someone came, dragged down the luthier who disturbed the joy of the feast, and beheaded him. ”

Immediately, two soldiers dragged down the violinist, who was constantly shouting for mercy.

Sun Zhaoyuan said in his heart: "King Yong is killing chickens and monkeys, let him and Prince De take care of the general trend and know the practice, otherwise in his palace, he will be the black sheep, and he will eradicate it." "But I thought that Emperor Yan's order must be done, otherwise this level has passed, how did Emperor Yan pass that level.

However, today's drama has been done enough, which is enough to repay Emperor Yan.

Prince De was secretly roasted on the fire by Sun Zhaoyuan, but he still didn't notice Sun Zhaoyuan's intentions, just because Sun Zhaoyuan grabbed the chess momentum every time he made a move, without showing a trace, and led the fire to Prince De.

Yu Yinqiao was already in a cold sweat, she saw that Li Yongding was really as brutal and ruthless as Sun Zhaoyuan said, her heart was tense, and she only felt stiff when she stood behind Sun Zhaoyuan. She didn't know the secret in Sun Zhaoyuan's heart, but like Prince De, she thought that Sun Zhaoyuan was trying to save the face of the Nie Er clan.

Li Yongding put the chopsticks on the table and said, "Prince De, then now this king will discuss the terms of peace talks with the Nie Er clan?" ”

Prince De also put down the chopsticks, straightened his body, and said: "King Yong, please speak, the request, if the king can be the master, the king can agree, if the king can not be the master, immediately fold, please Yongwang send someone to Jianzhou, Jianzhou officials will be sent to the capital as soon as possible, and the holy will decide." ”

Li Yongding said: "This king's requirements are not cumbersome. First, the hanging island is under the rule of this king, and the king is determined to live and die with the hanging island, coexist and die, so this king hopes that Emperor Yan will let this king continue to guard the hanging island and be the king of the hanging island. This king also agreed that the hanging island should be a subordinate country of the Nie Er tribe, with the Nie Er tribe as the respect, and the horse's head was Zhan, but this was not a surrender, but Emperor Yan had to understand; 2. Hanging Island is an island isolated overseas, in order to better communicate with the Nie Er people, the hanging island is willing to trade with the Nie Er people, but it also needs the Nie Er people to allocate one million taels of silver every year for port maintenance; 3. Since it is a subordinate country, our military and civilians all wear their own costumes, following the example of Lusu country. ”

Prince De pondered for a long time and said, "The request made by King Yong is indeed not something that this king can decide. Tomorrow, I will write the original story and send it to the capital to wait for the Holy Lord's ruling. ”

Li Yongding said: "That's fine, those few people will stay on the Hanging Island for a while, and when Emperor Yan's order arrives, it's not too late to make plans." ”

So the banquet was dispersed, and Prince De and Sun Zhaoyuan returned to their residence. Prince De wrote a fold for King Yong's request and handed it over to King Yong's men, who took the fold and boarded the ship and sent it to Zhangchengfu, who sent it all the way to the capital.

Sun Zhaoyuan also went through the matter, wrote a secret letter, and explained in detail how he provoked the relationship between King Yong and Prince De, and how he was resolved by Chen Yonghua one by one. Sun Zhaoyuan said in his heart: "Emperor Yan will believe that I have done a serious errand." He turned out the hidden carrier pigeon, tied it to his leg and released it, and the carrier pigeon flew back to the secret fold in the capital.

Sun Zhaoyuan and his entourage waited for Emperor Yan's will day by day. Then Li Yongding did not strictly supervise them, and let them wander around. Sun Zhaoyuan and Yu Yinqiao were bored, so they went out of the city day and day to see the beautiful scenery of this hanging island.

One day, Sun Zhaoyuan wanted to go out of the city to play, but Yu Yinqiao said: "My underwear is torn, I want to go to the market to buy some needlework and come back to sew, and I have been out for a few days to play, I am also a little tired, today I will wait for you at the post station." ”

When Sun Zhaoyuan heard this, he said: "That's fine, you have a good life and cultivation for a day, I am bored, or go out for a walk." Since I became an official, I walked beside the Son of Heaven every day, and I didn't even have time to go out to play, this time I went to the Hanging Island, and there was nothing to do, so I went out to play every day, and I could also tell the Son of Heaven about the customs and topography of the Hanging Island, which was also considered an errand. ”

After speaking, Sun Zhaoyuan rode out of the city. The letter horse galloped by the reins for half an hour, and suddenly saw a Taoist temple on the side of the road, thinking of asking for a sign, so he tied the horse and entered the Taoist temple, and said: "Disciple Sun Zhaoyuan, sincerely seek advice from the Sanqing master, this trip to the hanging island, whether you can return to the capital safely." Then he bowed three times and bowed to the master of Sanqing, saluted the incense, picked up the sticker, shook a stick, and wrote: "People will leave traces when they cross the snow, and there are waves in the fish leaping river." Everything in the world has cause and effect, and only by peeling off the cocoon can it be solved. Sun Zhaoyuan took this sign, and after thinking about it for a long time, he didn't know what to mean, and he didn't know whether the meaning of this sign was evil or auspicious.

Sun Zhaoyuan was thinking about it, and suddenly someone next to him said: "Master Sun, why do you need to ask for a sign to answer the confusion in your heart?" ”

With such a wilderness Taoist temple, how can anyone know themselves.

Sun Zhaoyuan turned his head to look at the man, and saw that the person who came was about thirty years old, with a strong body, and seemed to be a person with martial arts.

Sun Zhaoyuan arched his hand and said, "This brother, do you recognize me?" ”

The man said: "It is said that it has some relationship with Lord Sun. Lord Sun had entered the Yongwang Mansion to discuss peace talks, and I was also present at the time, perhaps there were many people at that time, and Lord Sun did not notice me. ”

Sun Zhaoyuan said: "There were indeed many people that day, and I didn't pay attention to it. May I ask your lordship, what is your position? ”

The man said: "The lower official's surname is Lu Mingzhong, and he is the personal guard of Sun Wu, the former pilgrim. The Holy Lord sent me to Hanging Island to help King Yong govern Hanging Island, and King Yong made a deputy general in the Taiwan Strait, although he has no real power, he also has some status. But I don't want to, King Yong accepted the proposal of the Nie Er clan for peace talks, and I will urgently play the Shengshang, and the Shengshang said: "I didn't expect Sun Zhaoyuan to go to the hanging island with Prince De for talks. Sun Zhaoyuan was admitted to the top prize, and I already know. This time, he went to the Hanging Island, just in time for him to sabotage the talks and force the Yongwang to firmly resist the Nie Er clan. Therefore, when the lower officials sought out Lord Sun, they came to explain the will of God to Lord Sun. Xiaguan still has a relationship with Lord Sun, and when he was transiting Qingqiu Prefecture, he inadvertently saved Sun Zhaoying, a distant relative of Lord Sun. This is also a coincidence. He told him in detail how he saved Sun Zhaoying at that time.

When Sun Zhaoyuan heard this, he was shocked again, and said in his heart: "How is this good, Gongsun Wu knows that I am now an official of the Nie Er clan, and I will definitely let me secretly help him do something rebellious in the future." If Emperor Yan knew about it, I would definitely be wiped out of the three clans. But the previous dynasty was kind to my grandson's family, and Yu Yinqiao was also rescued by the officers and soldiers of the previous dynasty, and this Lu Zhong saved my family, if you don't help Gongsun Wu, it is unreasonable. Both the Nie Er clan and the former dynasty have been kind to me, and this is not for me to roast on the fire. ”

Sun Zhaoyuan said: "It's easy to sabotage the peace talks, and Emperor Yan should refuse." You can rest assured in this matter, if Emperor Yan agrees to the terms of peace talks, I will come to see you. ”

Lu Zhong had already heard about Sun Zhaoyuan's legend, and he was convinced of his judgment, so he arched his hand and said, "Since Lord Sun is so sure, then I don't worry anymore. ”
