Chapter 131: We meet and negotiate in person
After hearing Wu Yuan's words when he left, Xiao Wenyao was stunned.
Why didn't she think of this just now, if Beiwang likes beautiful women, and he is the type that Beiwang likes, then it's okay to exchange herself for her uncle back?
But......
Xiao Wenyao thought of Wu Yuan's words to remind him again.
The King of the North is a womanizer, and he is also a barbarian woman.
If she really went to the Beiwang Mansion, I am afraid that she would only be able to become the female slave of the Beiwang, and I don't know how she would be tortured by the Beiwang.
She only knew that her father often carried the princess behind his back, quietly took the women captured by Great Xia to a certain tent, and then tortured them in various ways, and the women who were often tortured were worse than dead, making all kinds of screams.
His father often tortured the women of Great Xia, how could the king of the north treat himself, the daughter of the Heavenly Wolf King, kindly.
As soon as she thought of this, Xiao Wenyao's delicate body couldn't help but tremble.
But when he thought that his uncle had been so good to him since he was a child, if he didn't find a way to get him out, he would probably die in prison in North County.
She was left with only one relative, and she didn't want to die even the last relative.
And even if she doesn't go to Beijun, the King of Beixian is likely to come and take her away.
Originally, her father gave himself to the king of Beixian, but now that her father is defeated, the king of Beixian will inevitably come to their court and arrest her after knowing about it.
Compared to the King of Beixian, Xiao Wenyao would rather be tortured by the King of the North.
The Northern King is a native of Great Xia, and he has not yet had the habit of eating people, and he can also take a bath, even if he is tortured, it is better than the uncivilized tribe in the King of Beixian.
Thinking of this, Xiao Wenyao secretly made a decision in her heart.
Meanwhile.
Wu Yuan came to Yelu Nanyan's tent.
After Wu Yuan came in, he was about to say something, Yelu Nanyan said: "Wu Yuan, I have a very important task for you, I hope you will not live up to my expectations, if you can complete this task, I will give you 100,000 taels of silver!" ”
Hearing this, Wu Yuan immediately knelt down and said: "Doing things for the princess is all small things that should be, how dare the small ones ask for the princess's silver." ”
Yelu Nanyan said: "As long as you do this thing, you will be kind to the entire Heavenly Wolf King tribe in the future, and you deserve 100,000 taels of silver." ”
Wu Yuan immediately said: "Princess, please speak, no matter what kind of thing, the small one must work hard to do it, and the little one must do his best for the princess, and then die." ”
Yelu Nanyan said: "I need you to go to the North King's Mansion and negotiate with the North King, our Heavenly Wolf King Department plans to exchange horses, or cattle and sheep for the soldiers of our Heavenly Wolf King tribe." ”
Hearing this, Wu Yuan was stunned for a moment, and then said, "Princess, I'm afraid it's difficult for a small person to play a decisive role in this matter. ”
Yelu Nanyan asked, "Why is that?" Are you worried that the King of the North will find out that you are working for the barbarians and directly arrest you and kill you? ”
"If that's the case, you don't have to worry at all, we will never reveal a word about your affairs to the Northern King, you just say that your caravan has had a cattle and sheep trade with the Heavenly Wolf King tribe by chance, so that the Northern King should not embarrass you."
There are many caravans in the northern county that have traded with the barbarians in one way or another, such as the fur trade, and the cattle and sheep trade.
If they were to be killed just because they had a deal with the barbarians, then the caravan would probably not come to Beijun in the future, and Beijun would be even poorer at that time.
The North County was already very poor, and the caravans came to the North County, mainly through the North County, to trade with the barbarians in the north.
Yelu Nanyan believed that even if the Northern King did not understand business, there would always be people under the Northern King who understood this truth, and they would most likely not embarrass Wu Yuan, a businessman.
Wu Yuan said: "The small one doesn't mean this, the small one means that if the Northern King is really willing to negotiate with the Heavenly Wolf King tribe, I'm afraid he will only negotiate with you in person, and the small one is just a businessman, at most it can only play the role of talking." ”
Hearing Wu Yuan say this, Yelu Nanyan instantly understood what Wu Yuan meant.
For example, there are not many men in the Wolf King tribe today, and the North King has a high probability of guessing what the situation of the Wolf King tribe is, and at this time they proposed to exchange prisoners, so they definitely need to talk about the conditions.
If he didn't come forward, the Northern King would most likely think that the Heavenly Wolf King tribe was not sincere.
Moreover, there are not many captives this time, and it is not possible to settle it after one or two negotiations, and the king of the north may still open his mouth.
Let Wu Yuan talk to a businessman, not necessarily be able to talk about the conditions that the Heavenly Wolf King tribe can accept.
Thinking of this, Yelu Nanyan's eyebrows furrowed slightly, did he really want to meet the king of the north in person?
After pondering for a long time, Yelu Nanyan finally decided to take the initiative to stand up and negotiate with the Northern King on behalf of the Heavenly Wolf King tribe.
Then Yelu Nanyan said: "In this case, you first tell the king of the north the news that we want to negotiate, see if he has any conditions, if he is willing to let our soldiers go, you can propose that we meet and negotiate in person." ”
Wu Yuan said: "Yes, princess, the little one will go to Beijun and convey the princess's meaning to the king of Bei." ”
Speaking of this, Wu Yuan prepared to get up and leave the tent.
At this time, Yelu Nanyan suddenly thought of something, and then continued: "Wait, you go to Beijun this time to inquire if there is still that one alive among our barbarian generals." ”
Wu Yuan immediately said: "Back to the princess, the little one knows that General Xiao is still alive and locked up in the prison of Yancheng, and the king of the north does not seem to have any intention of offering prisoners to the Great Xia court. ”
Hearing Wu Yuan's answer, Yelu Nanyan was a little excited, and she immediately asked, "Are you sure General Xiao is still alive?" ”
Wu Yuan replied: "The small one has only heard about it, so I don't dare to be completely sure, and it seems that some people know about this news, and the small one is still the information that I bought from a soldier in Beijun." ”
"According to the soldier of Beijun, after the war, the soldiers of Beijun sent a barbarian general to the prison of Yancheng to be imprisoned, and the king of Bei also asked the doctor to treat him, according to the soldier's description, the little one judged that the general that the soldier said should be General Xiao."
Yelu Nanyan took a deep breath, such as there are no grandmaster-level powerhouses in the Wolf King Tribe today, if Xiao Pengtian is still alive, no matter what price they pay, they will have to exchange Xiao Pengtian back.
If the Heavenly Wolf King tribe does not have a strong man in the future, it will be difficult to survive in the grasslands of the Northland.
After Yelu Nanyan calmed down for a while, he continued: "After you go to Beijun this time, you must inquire more about General Xiao, and once you are sure that General Xiao is still alive, you will immediately have someone send us a letter." ”
Wu Yuan said, "Yes, princess." ”
Yelu Nanyan immediately said: "Okay, you hurry up and prepare, and go to Beijun immediately." ”
Wu Yuan saluted and said, "The little one is retired." ”
Immediately after, Wu Yuan turned around and left the tent.
Looking at Wu Yuan's departing back, Yelu Nanyan sighed deeply.
The royal court of the Heavenly Wolf King tribe had moved many times, and she had also migrated many times with the royal court of the Heavenly Wolf King, and finally they chose this place near the river.
I thought that when they moved the royal court again, they would go directly to Beijun, and they would never have to live like this in the future.
Unexpectedly, they are about to embark on a life of exile again.
Thinking of this, Yelu Nanyan's mind came to mind the life that his mother had depicted when he was a child.
Don't worry about starving and freezing, don't worry about wolves and beasts, at night every house is brightly lit, the streets and alleys are full of snacks, where to eat, when you go home, the next person has prepared the bath water, you can bathe immediately, after bathing, the bed is also warm and fragrant, wake up the next day, it is a beautiful day and do not have to worry about survival.
Maybe she'll never be able to live a day like this.
Her mother, as a former native of Great Xia, was brought to the barbarian tribe and was never able to live such a life until she died, how could she live such a good life.
Yelu Nanyan tried to calm himself down, and didn't think about it anymore, the most important thing now was to redeem those middle-aged men of the barbarian clan and Xiao Pengtian.
Let's keep the Sirius King tribe first.
If there was no Sky Wolf King tribe, her fate would be even more miserable, and she would never want to live the same miserable life as when she was a child.
……
A few days later.
North Palace.
Lu Chen was looking through the information handed over by Jinyiwei in the study, when there was a knock at the door.
Lu Chen said lightly: "Come in." ”
Immediately, the door was pushed open, and Qin Yushan entered the study.
"See the prince."
Lu Chen looked at the information in his hand and said "um", and asked, "What's the matter?" ”
Qin Yushan put the information in his hand on Lu Chen's desk, "Lord Wang, Wu Yuan is back, and has brought back the news that the Princess of the Heavenly Wolf King wants to negotiate with you personally, and they plan to ransom the barbarian captives and Xiao Pengtian with horses or cattle and sheep. ”
Hearing this, Lu Chen was stunned for a moment, then put down the information in his hand, picked up the information that Qin Yushan had placed on the desk and glanced at it.
Lu Chen had guessed from the beginning that the Heavenly Wolf King tribe would be soft, but he didn't expect that the Heavenly Wolf King's princess planned to negotiate with him personally.
After all, negotiation is a very dangerous thing, and it is very likely that if they meet, the people who come to participate in the negotiations will never go back.
The princess of the Sirius King was braver than he had imagined.
is worthy of being a woman who can wield power in the Sky Wolf King Tribe.
Lu Chen originally wanted to let Xiao Pengtian be the Sky Wolf King at first, and then divide the Sky Wolf King tribe, but now it seems that I am afraid that it will no longer be needed.
Lu Chen learned from the intelligence that the royal court of the Heavenly Wolf King had begun to move, which was obviously to guard against the Beixian King and other barbarian tribes.
It seems that their failure this time has already made them feel a huge crisis, and there is no need to use Xiao Pengtian to stimulate them at all.
Xiao Pengtian can't go back, in the eyes of those people in the Heavenly Wolf King tribe, they are the next Heavenly Wolf King.
Now there is not a single grandmaster-level powerhouse in the entire Heavenly Wolf King tribe, even if they are unwilling, they can only recognize Xiao Pengtian as the new Heavenly Wolf King.
Therefore, for them, admitting that Xiao Pengtian is the Heavenly Wolf King does not play a role in differentiation, but they will try their best to redeem Xiao Pengtian.
At this time, Lu Chen put the information on the desk, and then got up from his seat.
"Let's go, let's go see Xiao Pengtian."
As soon as the words fell, Lu Chen left the study directly and went to the prison where Xiao Pengtian was held.
In this negotiation with the princess of the Heavenly Wolf King, Lu Chen planned to bring Xiao Pengtian and directly receive the entire Heavenly Wolf King tribe to Beijun.
Now it depends on what Xiao Pengtian thinks.
If Xiao Pengtian agreed, in the future, they would have more barbarian soldiers in Beijun, and when they fought on the grassland, it would be easier for them to find other tribes of the barbarians.
It didn't take long for Lu Chen to appear in front of Xiao Pengtian.
At this time, Xiao Pengtian's mental state was obviously much better than before, although his hair was also messy, but he really looked much cleaner.
The prison guards gave him the best treatment in the prison, which was not enjoyed by the barbarian captives outside.
Seeing Lu Chen coming, Xiao Pengtian just glanced up at Lu Chen, and did not get up from the bed, and then he lowered his head again, and he just lay on his side on the bed, closing his eyes slightly, looking as if he was sleeping.
Lu Chen asked lightly, "General Xiao, how are you thinking about it?" ”
Xiao Pengtian didn't answer directly, but said: "I can't guarantee that what you said is true, and I can't guarantee that you can keep your promises." ”
If it was someone else in Great Xia who put forward that condition, I'm afraid he might really believe it, but it was the North King who proposed to make him the Heavenly Wolf King.
A northern king who pretended to be incompetent and confused their barbarians and wiped out their barbarian army's 300,000 troops, how could he dare to believe a northern king with such deep scheming?
Although the North King is only sixteen or seventeen years old this year, the current Xiao Pengtian does not dare to treat him as a child at all, if he thinks that the North King is just a little child as before, their Heavenly Wolf King tribe may suffer a catastrophe.
It sounded as if the North King had rejected his proposal, but Lu Chen saw Xiao Pengtian's inner wavering through Xiao Pengtian's loyalty.
[Name: Xiao Pengtian]
[Identity: General of the Barbarian Sirius King Tribe, a captive of the Northern County. 】
[Strength: Grandmaster Realm (Sealed Status)]
[Loyalty: 60]
Xiao Pengtian's loyalty had reached the point where it was available, and he must have wanted to agree to that proposal in his heart, after all, a stable life was what their Heavenly Wolf King tribe had always wanted.
If it weren't for the sake of a stable life, in order not to starve and freeze like before, they would not have led an army of 300,000 to attack the North County this time, which was their purpose in itself.
If Lu Chen really agreed to let all the Heavenly Wolf King tribes move to Beijun to settle down, and also teach them to farm, he would definitely agree.
But the point is that he doesn't trust the North King.
Beiwang's scheming is too deep, and Xiao Pengtian, who has already suffered a loss, will naturally be very careful.
At this moment, Lu Chen said: "This king came today, in addition to asking you how you are considering, there is also news to tell you. ”
Xiao Pengtian asked suspiciously, "What news?" ”
"Your princess is already planning to meet with this king to negotiate, and she wants to ransom your barbarian soldiers and you with horses, cattle and sheep."
"General Xiao thinks this king will agree?"
Hearing this, Xiao Pengtian was stunned.
However, he quickly calmed down, for he had already guessed that the princess would do this, and now they had nothing to do but negotiate peace.
If it were the rest of the Great Xia, the possibility of their peace talks was very high, maybe they would use some horses, cattle and sheep would really be able to exchange for some barbarian soldiers.
But they are facing the King of the North!
Xiao Pengtian could see that this young man's eyes revealed huge ambitions, and he might not necessarily agree.
No! It should be said that it is impossible for him to agree at all!
If the North King agrees to the peace talks, he will not let Xiao Pengtian be the next Heavenly Wolf King.
Seeing that Xiao Pengtian didn't speak, Lu Chen continued: "In this negotiation, this king will bring General Xiao with him, and this king believes that when the negotiation is over, General Xiao will make a choice immediately." ”
Xiao Pengtian frowned.
Take him there?
What's to be done?
Is it possible to use him as a bargaining chip to threaten the Sirius King tribe?
Xiao Pengtian was about to say something, but Lu Chen immediately turned around and left.
Lu Chen came to prison, mainly because he planned to tell Xiao Pengtian the news in person, and he didn't plan to talk too much nonsense with Xiao Pengtian.
The annexation of the Heavenly Wolf King tribe is a foregone conclusion, and the Heavenly Wolf King tribe has no choice in the end, unless they take refuge in other barbarian tribes, otherwise when the negotiations are over, Xiao Pengtian will not agree to their conditions.
