The capital of the Liang Kingdom.

Xiao Liangzuo looked at the two ministers in front of him with a haggard face.

"An Qing, Fang Qing, in your opinion, what should I do now?"

He thought that even if he was not the opponent of the Chu army, he would not be defeated.

But who would have thought that Tuoba Yong would be defeated at the hands of a hairy boy named Wang He, and he would still be defeated.

Now there is only one thing left to hold on, and if you continue to fight, you will have to defend the country by the Son of Heaven.

Yasumoto's solution is also very simple.

"Your Majesty, pay compensation, send protons, make peace, and the last step, cut the land."

On the side, Fang Dangyi immediately echoed.

"The minister seconded the proposal."

"Still cutting, they are almost half of my beams, how can they cut it?"

Ahn explained.

"This is our final bottom line, if we can pay compensation to solve it, it is naturally the best."

"The minister seconded the proposal."

Alas......

Xiao Liangzuo sighed.

"Let's talk about the reparations first."

"Your Majesty, it depends on what the bottom line is in your heart, so that the envoy of the peace talks also knows it in his heart."

Seeing Xiao Liang stretch out a finger on his left, Fang Dangyi asked tentatively.

"A million?"

Xiao Liangzuo squeezed out a sentence from between his teeth.

"At most, ten million silver."

An Benchu continued to hear.

"If Da Chu asks for the payment of annual coins and silver, what should I do?"

Xiao Liangzuo took a deep breath and endured the pain.

"A maximum of 500,000 silver per year."

After talking about the compensation, Xiao Liangzuo immediately changed the topic.

"Let's talk about protons."

Speaking of proton, An Benchu and Fang Dangyi were silent, they both knew in their hearts that the prince was the most suitable.

But as soon as he said it, if the crown prince succeeded to the throne in the future, he would definitely settle accounts with them.

After a long silence, An Benchu spoke.

"Your Majesty, in fact, you can choose not to send protons and choose to be friendly."

"Huh?"

"Your Majesty, the purpose of sending protons is to reassure the State of Chu, and being friendly can not only reassure the State of Chu, but also reassure us."

"How?"

Fang Dangyi said slowly.

"Your Majesty, the Chu State is basically decided by Li Yunsheng alone.

He has not yet married, if the woman of my Liang Kingdom marries him.

Even if the pillow wind blows in the future, the Chu State will no longer easily use troops against our Liang State. ”

"That's one of them."

On the side, An Benchu answered.

"Second, if Li Yunsheng has an heir in the future.

He also has the blood of my Liang in his body, if he can take charge of the military power in the north in the future......"

Speaking of which, there is no need for An Benchu to continue.

Xiao Liang's left eye was shining.

"Reasonable!"

Originally, he thought that he could pay compensation, so he didn't have to send protons or kisses.

After all, it is always good to have one less handle in the hands of the Chu State.

But when he heard An Benchu say this, he was completely moved by his heart and family.

"Let Lizhu make peace with him."

Fang Dangyi reminded.

"Your Majesty, although the second princess is very smart, I heard that the tenth princess is the most beautiful."

"Among my princesses, the most beloved is Haoyue, you let her go and kiss." Xiao Liangzuo was really a little reluctant.

Yasumoto bowed down and said.

"Your Majesty, the Empress of Chu is also extraordinary, I'm afraid that only the tenth princess can hold Li Yunsheng's heart."

Since you want to be close, you naturally have to go down.

If you can't hold Li Yunsheng's heart, what's the use of sending it over.

Xiao Liangzuo sighed.

"There is only my daughter."

An Benchu and Fang Dangyi spoke in unison.

"Your Majesty Shengming!"

"Then which of you will go to the Chu State for peace talks?"

An Benchu and Fang Dangyi pointed at each other at the same time.

"Ann is suitable."

"The room fits."

Xiao Liang looked at the two of them playfully with his left eyes, and came up with the idea that he wanted to be a turtle with a shrunken head when it came to the end.

"The minister is not as fickle as An Xiang, and he is afraid that it will be difficult to take on a big responsibility."

"The minister is already old, and I am afraid that the major event of the peace talks will be delayed."

Hearing this, Xiao Liangzuo didn't name anyone.

"Give them a day to think about who to go.

Otherwise, there will be Lao and Aiqing going together. ”

An Benchu and Fang Dangyi glanced at each other, bitter in their hearts.

"Obey."

"Obey."

……

Jingshi, Shangshu Province.

After Li Yunsheng returned to Jingshi, he came here first.

"During my absence, what is the big deal in Jingshi?"

The official secretary was the first to speak.

"This year's Spring Festival, the number of Jinshi selected by His Majesty is three times that of the last time."

Li Yunsheng nodded, he had already thought of this before leaving.

Therefore, he chose this period of Chunqiu to go to the Northern Qi for peace talks.

"Anything else?"

"According to the usual practice, the Jinshi was awarded at the beginning to start from the eighth grade, but His Majesty raised the Jinshi admitted this time by one level.

In addition, for the Tongjinshi who are one level lower, they also directly ask the officials to be exempted from the selection of officials. ”

Immediately after, Tobe Shangshu said.

"Your Majesty has used the money from the treasury to give these jinshi money."

Li Yunsheng frowned.

"It's not in accordance with the rules to use money from the treasury."

"Your Majesty said, when you come back, it will be deducted from Your Majesty's inner treasury."

This is to use money and career to buy people's hearts, Li Yunsheng continued to ask.

"What else?"

Shi Chongxin stood up.

Not long after Li Xiang left, His Majesty used troops against the Liang State, and Xiahou Xun led the army to defeat the Liang State Tuoba Yong.

I heard that Liang had sent an envoy to sue for peace. ”

Seeing that he mentioned the envoy of the Liang State, Honglu Siqing answered.

"The envoy of the Liang State is already staying, waiting for the peace talks, and is about to report to His Majesty at this time."

"You don't need to report to Your Majesty, take me to see the envoy of the Liang Kingdom."

……

Fenglin Palace.

"Your Majesty, Li Xiang has already arrived in Beijing."

"Oh." Jiang Qingying responded, a little unhappy.

"Your Majesty, the peace talks between Li Xiang and Northern Qi have been successful.

It doesn't take a single soldier to recover the land of Yanbei, why don't you seem to be very happy. ”

"yes, that's something to be happy about."

Jiang Qingying sighed.

"But the better he is, the more incompetent he becomes."

She wanted to do better than Li Yunsheng, but he was too dazzling to catch up.

The two countries have withdrawn their troops, and the military power in her hands and Li Yunsheng's military power have become less important.

In the past, she thought that with Xiahou Xun in the north, Li Yunsheng would have some scruples.

Now, the two are back to court battles.

Although she has Liu Cheng in the court, it is not enough to compete with Li Yunsheng.

Liu Cheng's age, I don't know if I can last until the Jinshi I selected returns to Beijing.

Shangguan immediately knelt on the ground.

"Your Majesty, the envoy of the Liang State to seek peace has entered Beijing, and your meritorious deeds Li Xiang is also inferior."

Jiang Qingying waved his hand.

"Since Li Yunsheng is back, let him go and negotiate peace with Liang Guo."

can make Beiqi spit out the land of Yanbei with just one mouth, she doesn't have that ability.

When it comes to negotiations, she is ashamed of herself.

"Li Xiang has already gone, probably because he wants to see the princess Haoyue with his own eyes."

"Hmm."

Jiang Qingying reacted suddenly.

"What Princess Hazy Moon?"

[Yesterday, a reader said that there were a lot of typos, and in the past two days, I feel tightness in my chest and my brain is confused, so I'm very sorry. 】
