Chapter 622: The First Negotiation
Early the next morning.
When the bright sunlight slowly poured down from the sky, shining the whole world brightly, the team of Dongchang and the six gates also got Su Shan's order and quickly set off in the direction of Chang'an City.
With such an order, they were finally no longer as slow as before, and coupled with the speed of action and homesickness, it was much faster than before.
But after a moment's effort, he had already left the place where he was encamped, and then almost ten thousand horses galloped, galloping along Chang'an Road, this mighty situation made all the cars and horses and passers-by on Chang'an Road shocked, and when they really saw that they were the Dongchang team, they were even more frightened and retreated to the side.
Thundered!
Thundered!
Under such a vast momentum, the entire Dongchang and the six gates only took less than two days to appear in front of the east gate of Chang'an City, and before that, the officials in Chang'an City had also received the news that the overseer of Dongchang was about to return, and at this time, they were already preparing to meet at the city gate.
Facing the wind and hunting the banner of publicity, the mighty team of officials of Chang'an City almost gave the entire east gate of Chang'an City to the arch guards, and as the team of the East Factory gradually appeared in the sight of everyone, the civil and military officials who had been waiting for a long time also moved one after another.
"We've seen the Overseer, the Overseer, Chitose Chitose, Chitose Chitose!"
With a vast and low shout, these many civil and military officials had already come to the black carriage, and under the leadership of Qin Ding'an, several cabinet elders and countless officials all knelt on the ground one after another to welcome Su Shan's return.
"Get up. ”
The black carriage curtain slowly opened, and Su Shan's figure walked out of it, now his identity and status are completely different, and he can be regarded as the existence that represents the pinnacle of the entire Great Wei Dynasty, and at this time, he can't ignore the rules as casually as before.
It's also a little more constrained.
You can only follow some rules step by step.
This solemn and solemn welcome ceremony finally ended after an hour, Su Shan, accompanied and escorted by a group of civil and military officials and the officials of the East Factory, entered Chang'an City, which had not returned for a long time, and then, Su Shan returned to the palace according to Qin Ding'an's arrangement to understand some things.
In the evening, a grand ceremony was held in the state banquet Huaqing Pond, as for the Dongchang Fan and the people of the six doors, under the arrangement of Xiao Yuer, they went home one after another, and some even left Chang'an City on the same day to go to various places to visit their relatives.
This busyness gradually consumed a whole day.
The next day, Su Shan had time to meet the envoy from Goguryeo.
"Overseer, please. ”
Accompanying Su Shan to meet them was Qin Ding'an, and along the way, Qin Ding'an introduced Su Shan's intentions to the Goguryeo envoy, as well as some of the requirements made a few days ago, and Su Shan now understands a lot.
"See the Overseer, see Lord Xiangguo!"
Between the two talking, they had already come to the accommodation post station provided by Chang'an City for the Goguryeo mission, and the guards at the door of the post station were the guards of Chang'an City, and the carriage of the governor of Dongchang and Xiangguo, who naturally recognized him, greeted him respectfully.
"Get up. ”
Su Shan and Qin Ding'an did not have any arrogance in the face of these guards, and walked into the post station with a smile, and the envoys of Goguryeo had already been informed, and they were preparing to greet them at their residences at this time.
There were about thirty or forty people in this group, standing side by side neatly, and the old man at the front was wearing Goguryeo's obvious court clothes, his white hair was a little exposed, and although his face was wrinkled, he looked old and pale, but his eyes were full of energy.
Especially there is a bit of a sharp thing in it, which people dare not underestimate.
"The old man, the envoy of Goguryeo, Jin Shenglong, has seen the overseer. ”
Su Shan, accompanied by Qin Ding'an, came to the front of everyone, and the old man took a step forward and came to the opposite side of Su Shan, and bowed his hand respectfully.
Although the old man spoke very politely, the arrogance revealed between his speech and demeanor was also faintly revealed.
It's a little uncomfortable.
"Heh......"
Su Shan didn't know how many things he had experienced over the years, and his ability to observe words and colors was by no means comparable to ordinary people, so at this time, he naturally saw the arrogance of this old man named Jin Shenglong, but he didn't show anything, but smiled slightly, made a gesture of please, and said,
"Please. ”
"Please!"
The two of them entered the main hall specially provided by the post station together, and the remaining people from the Goguryeo mission, as well as many people from the cabinet of the Great Wei Dynasty, were also divided into two columns, and fell behind the two of them, with the distinguished people sitting down, and most of the remaining people standing on the left and right.
A negotiation is a situation that arises very quickly.
"Your envoy came all the way to the Great Wei Dynasty, and the governor did not greet him in time, but he was a little reluctant to go, and the governor apologized to you here in advance, sorry. ”
Su Shan raised his head with a smile, swept over the many Goguryeo envoys, and then said with a smile.
"Overseer, I waited here for the diplomatic relations between the two countries, our sincerity is here, so it is no problem to wait for a few days, and I heard that the Overseer has encountered some trouble on the side of the war of Dayan Nuzhen, so even if you wait a few more days, there is no problem!"
The old man Jin Shenglong stroked the white beard on his chin slightly, and said with a smile,
"After all, the Great Wei Dynasty has worked hard to conquer an area as large as Jurchen Dayan, if I delay a major event because of my Goguryeo incident, it will somewhat outweigh the losses, we understand!"
"Haha......"
Su Shan could hear the pride and domineering between the old guy's words, and a sneer flashed in his slightly squinted eyes, and after chuckling, he said,
"Misunderstanding, you misunderstood. ”
"This governor stayed in the Great Yan Jurchen, not to maintain stability, nor to recuperate, but to order the Liaodong Army to observe the environment and road of the place where Goguryeo and the Great Yan Jurchen met, and planned to move troops against you Goguryeo in the future. ”
"This governor is in line with the idea of trying not to fight if he can, this is the next matter of suspending Liaodong and Dayan Nuzhen, and then rushing back from thousands of miles, but I want to hear your opinions and ideas. ”
"You ......"
Su Shan's words were already quite domineering, and he didn't give the Goguryeo envoys any face at all, which made their faces a little ugly, and the envoy named Jin Shenglong immediately frowned, and his gaze staring at Su Shan also became a little gloomy.
However, after all, he is an envoy of a country, he still has the demeanor and strength, and he seems to have some confidence, he took a deep breath, suppressed the anger in his heart, and then smiled slightly,
"I have always heard that the governor of the Great Wei Dynasty has come to his current position step by step from a person who is nothing, and the prosperous and prosperous Spring and Autumn Period established by the Great Wei Dynasty is indeed a character, extraordinary, and the old man has been taught. ”
"However, is Lord Su sure that the current Great Wei Dynasty has the ability to continue to use troops against my Goguryeo?"
"Why not?"
Su Shan's eyebrows raised slightly, and he asked with a smile.
There was no displeasure at all because of the other party's tone.
"Heh, the old man heard that in the new Yancheng of the Great Yan Nuzhen, the Liaodong Army, which the Lord Su Du is proud of, has suffered an unprecedented blow and suffered a lot of losses, especially the high-ranking generals, most of them have died, coupled with the current situation of the Great Yan Nuzhen, the Liaodong Army can be said to be stretched!"
Jin Shenglong said as he took a sip of tea, and then said,
"If the Liaodong Army continues to use this situation to forcibly use troops against our Goguryeo, I am afraid that they will be in trouble, and if there is any more turmoil in the territory of the Great Yan Jurchen, the Liaodong Army will be regarded as a lone army and will suffer from the enemy on its back, which is very unfavorable to the Liaodong Army!"
"So, the old man thinks that the Overseer should not make such a risky move!"
"Do you know Ben Governor well?"
Su Shan heard the other party's analysis, and his brows wrinkled without missing a trace, the other party was so aware of the situation in Liaodong, and he had obviously made great efforts to investigate, but he would not show the slightest jealousy, but said with a relaxed smile,
"Do you know that the Great Wei Dynasty not only has the Liaodong Army, but also the 300,000 Guanlong Army in the northwest grassland, whether it is cavalry or weaponry, it is far above the Liaodong Army. ”
"If this governor really wants your Goguryeo, he can transfer 300,000 Guanlong troops to Liaodong with just one order, and your Goguryeo is just a projectile land, do you think, you can resist a total of 500,000 troops of my Great Wei Dynasty?"
"Ben Du Jue, you will be a joke!"
When Jin Shenglong heard this, a trace of solemnity flashed on his originally arrogant face, and there was a little anger that could not be concealed, he did know the existence of Guan Longjun, but he had his own confidence, and he didn't believe that Su Shan really dared to transfer all the Guan Long Army to Liaodong, because the Guanlong grassland should not have completely stabilized now.
He smiled and said,
"If the Overseer really has such courage, perhaps, my Goguryeo has already become a subordinate place of your Great Wei Dynasty, and the war of the Great Yan Nuzhen has subsided for a while, but the Guan Long Army has not moved, perhaps, the Overseer also has any concerns, right?"
"Concerns, the Governor may have, but not greatly. ”
Su Shan shrugged his shoulders lightly, and then leaned on the chair with some indifference, and the teacup in his hand was also gently brought to his mouth, and he took a sip of tea.
The situation at the negotiation table was so quiet and silent, and for a while, everyone did not speak.
The atmosphere also became a little solemn and depressing.
In the end, it was Jin Shenglong who didn't calm down, he took a deep breath, and then said in a deep voice,
"What the overseer means, the old man understands, we are not here to start a war with the Great Wei Dynasty, but to turn hostility into friendship and be able to live in peace between the two countries. ”
"I wonder if the Overseer can listen to the old man's meaning?"
"Please!"
Su Shan smiled, but he didn't even raise his head, as if he didn't care at all.
Jin Shenglong frowned again, and then continued,
"Before the old man left from Goguryeo, the lord of the country had already explained to the old man that Goguryeo had now formed an alliance with the Aberley savage tribe north of Liaodong and the islands of the East China Sea, and we all saw the rise of the Great Wei Dynasty, and we didn't want to be annexed by the Great Wei Dynasty one by one. ”
"So, I want to negotiate a condition with the Great Wei Dynasty, that is, the Governor. ”
"If the Overseer Stops and Gives Up His ......"
"Needless to say, these Bendos already know. ”
Without waiting for Jin Shenglong to finish speaking, Su Shan put the teacup on the table opposite, and then said with a smile,
"If there are no other conditions or requirements, this governor wants to think about this suggestion in the next few days, after all, you should also know that this governor has just come from Liaodong, and he doesn't understand many things, so he doesn't want to make a decision!"
"Yes. ”
Jin Shenglong nodded, and then said,
"The old man can give the Overseer time, but I also want to remind the Overseer that the Overseer attaches great importance to this matter, but the Aberley Savages and the countries of the East China Sea are a little urgent, after all, it is an alliance, we must consider their meaning, in this world, it is limited!"
"Now more than half a month has passed since the one-month deadline given by the lord of the country, and within ten days at most, the old man will know the result, and then pass the news back to Goguryeo, hoping that the lord will not delay too long, if there is no news, the lord of the country is afraid that he will not be able to suppress the Aberli savages and the countries of the East China Sea!"
"When the time comes, I'm afraid this war will start out in a hurry, and it will not be a good thing for me Goguryeo or the Great Wei Dynasty!"
"Ben Governor knows!"
Su Shan naturally heard the threat in Jin Shenglong's tone, he was not surprised, just smiled faintly, and then got up and walked directly outside the post station.
did not give the slightest meaning of farewell to Kim Shenglong and other Goguryeo envoys.
"Don't send it to the Overseer. ”
Su Shan didn't say goodbye, and Jin Shenglong didn't see him off in the slightest, just stood up, bowed his hand lightly to Su Shan's back, and sat down again.
Crash!
Subsequently, Qin Ding'an and the cabinet officials also followed behind Su Shan, left the post station, and everyone got into the carriage one after another, and galloped towards the direction of the palace.
They had all seen Fang Cai's situation clearly, knew Goguryeo's demands and threats, and at this time also understood that the Great Wei Dynasty might now be facing a not very simple challenge, and they needed to go back as soon as possible to discuss a solution.
"Goguryeo, the country of projectiles, dares to provoke the Great Wei Dynasty like this?"
"Hmph. ”
"I want to see what confidence you have......
On the way, Su Shan's brows were also furrowed, and he muttered to himself, with a coldness and calm tone that was difficult to hide.
