Chapter 103: Old Friends Meet
Now, the officials present here as envoys have a detailed understanding of the relevant matters of this mission, and naturally they also have a deep understanding of the key figures who directly led to this negotiation.
In the face of such an unstoppable killing god, the more they understood, the more frightened they felt.
What's more, in this negotiation, Nanqing's bleeding is already an established fact, and it is naturally impossible to start the war again.
Xin Qiwu smiled, and his tone softened a lot.
"Why bother, if you stand upright, it is not a good thing for either side, Lord Xu Chuan is only afraid and does not want to be contaminated with too much blood, so he will let my Qingjun evacuate on that day."
Nie Fa snorted coldly and said, "Lord Xu Chuan's kindness is not an excuse for you to stir up nonsense, so far this matter, don't continue to talk nonsense here, lest I doubt the sincerity of your Nanqing negotiations!" ”
Xin Qiwu secretly glanced at Fan Xian, and found that he was just sitting quietly, and had no intention of speaking, so he had to continue to speak: "Since we are here, we are naturally sincere, but this ransom is too high." ”
Zong Cheng glanced at him lightly and said, "Isn't this lord thinking that a soldier of your Nanqing is not worth a hundred taels of silver?" ”
Xin Qiwu's face changed, knowing that these words could never come out of his mouth, and immediately said: "Naturally not, if it is really measured by gold and silver, any soldier in my Nanqing is ten thousand gold, only 100 million taels of silver, I Nanqing really can't bear it." ”
Zong Cheng smiled and said, "What if you add 30,000 military horses, 100,000 pairs of armor and weapons?" ”
These are all the trophies that Qingjun left on the battlefield that day, and they belong to Dongyi, but for Dongyi, they are actually of great use.
And in terms of true value, these ordnance horses are naturally not worth 100 million taels of silver, but their own value is not low, especially when he proposes it at this moment, which is actually a great concession.
It's just that in the eyes of many officials in Qingguo, the insult is very strong, these military horses and weapons belong to them Qingguo, and now they have to buy them back with real money and silver premium.
Someone on the spot said loudly: "Even if it is 100 million taels, it is too much, if it is 50 million silver, I can agree now." ”
The smile on Zong Cheng's face faded, and he said coldly: "One hundred million taels, one tael can't be less, otherwise there is no need to continue this negotiation today!" ”
Xin Qiwu said angrily: "How dare you Dongyi bully my Qingguo like this, you must know that my Qingguo has two great masters, even if you Dongyi kills the gods, you may not really be able to kill my Qingguo!" ”
Dongyi Ziye immediately retorted, the two sides went back and forth, arguing with each other, making the whole negotiation scene more and more hot.
At the head of the case, Wang Shisanlang and Fan Xian never spoke, but calmly watched the two sides continue to argue.
Suddenly, a clear voice came from outside.
"It's so lively, why don't you let me listen to it too?"
His voice was not loud, but it was full of strong penetration, ignoring the commotion and directly reaching the ears of everyone in the conference room.
Everyone subconsciously looked over, only to see a man with frost-white temples and a dark robe walking in slowly.
Dongyi, including Zong Cheng, all got up and saluted him, and said respectfully: "I've seen Lord Xu Chuan!" ”
Even Wang Shisanlang, who had been sitting still, got up and nodded.
As for Nanqing, except for some surprise in Fan Xian's eyes, all the ministers were shocked and frightened.
This killing god actually returned?
Xin Qiwu's heart sank, knowing that the next negotiations would only be difficult.
On the side, Zong Cheng took the initiative to step forward and tell what had just happened.
Leaning less, Xu Chuan's expression was light, and he asked with a little doubt in his tone: "Negotiation?" Why negotiate? ”
He swept his eyes over the officials of Nanqing one by one, and said calmly: "There is no need to discuss this matter anymore, tell your majesty, 100 million taels, pay it off within a month, otherwise, for every day of delay, you will kill 10,000 people in the Qing army, as for those military horses and equipment, if Qingguo wants it, he will buy it with silver." ”
This condition is several times harsher than before, but at this moment, no one dares to speak out anymore.
With their understanding of Xu Chuan, if they continue to oppose it, they may not be killed on the spot.
It's just that if you really agree like this, your majesty is afraid that you will pick off a layer of skin after you go back.
glanced at each other, and in the end, he set his eyes on Fan Xian, the real master of the trip.
Fan Xian sighed, got up helplessly, and said, "I will pass on the message for you, as for whether I agree or not, I want His Majesty Qingguo to make a decision." ”
Xu Chuan looked at him with a faint smile and said, "That's nature." ”
After that, he said to Zong Cheng: "It's a guest from afar, go and arrange it, so that they can have a place to settle down as soon as possible." ”
Zong Cheng responded: "Obey!" ”
Soon, as soon as the envoys of Qingguo came out of the conference room with the people of Dongyi, Wang Shisanlang and Xu Chuan had a brief exchange of words, and quickly left.
In the blink of an eye, only Xu Chuan and Fan Xian were left.
Fan Xian let out a long breath, looked at Xu Chuan with complicated eyes, and said, "Big brother, you are really getting more and more incomprehensible to me, what kind of legendary biotechnology are you so perverted?" ”
Xu Chuan shook his head and didn't answer his doubts, but found a chair, sat next to him and said, "You should already know your background, do you have any guesses about the identity of your real father?" ”
Fan Xian was stunned for a moment, his expression was a little complicated, he nodded and said, "I probably know something." ”
Xu Chuan looked at him and continued to ask, "Then do you think the death of your mother Ye Qingmei has anything to do with you, your biological father?" ”
Fan Xian was shocked, subconsciously shook his head, and said, "Impossible!" ”
Xu Chuan smiled and said: "You have been in Kyoto for more than two years, and you should know a lot about the battle of the Taiping Courtyard back then, why do you think that when Ye Qingmei was about to give birth to you, Chen Pingping was not there, Fan Jian was not there, your biological father was not there, and even Uncle Wuzhu, who never left Ye Qingmei's side, was not there, and there were only her enemies left in the entire Shangjing City, is it a coincidence?" ”
Without waiting for Fan Xian to speak, he continued: "You should be no stranger to the temple, your mother and Wuzhu are both from there, do you know that after the battle on the border of Qingguo two years ago, there was a temple envoy comparable to a great grandmaster who ambushed me, if they didn't know me, I would have died that day."
Do you think that among the people who will kill me that day, who will be able to communicate with the temple and ask the temple to send a temple messenger comparable to the Grand Master to kill me? ”
Under one question after another, even if Fan Xian found it hard to believe that it would be that person who wanted to kill his mother in this life, his heart had already begun to waver, but he still couldn't help asking: "It doesn't make sense, why did he do this?" ”
The address was modified for various reasons
