"Marquis Pei, please stay."

Xu Ziping frowned, and even though he was extremely reluctant, he could only stand up to save this person.

He was born in the Xu family of Qinghe, a famous poetry and calligraphy family that has been passed down for thousands of years and has a deeper heritage than the Han family in Luling. In terms of eloquence and eloquence, there are few opponents, so he can compete with the officials of the Ministry of Rites of Daliang without being unreasonable.

up and down.

He is not afraid of and even likes negotiating opponents like Sheng Duanming, because this kind of scholar always has to pay attention to some manners, in other words, he has to have some face.

Pei Yue is the most difficult person to deal with, because he can be completely unreasonable. In addition, the Emperor of Beiliang appointed him as the negotiator. There is no need to elaborate on the profound meaning. Xu Ziping knew in his heart that if this young man could not be brought to justice today,

If the powerful man stayed, he would have failed half of his mission, and there would be no way to talk about the other half.

Pei Yue stopped and turned to look at Xu Ziping indifferently.

"Please take a seat, Marquis Pei. I am willing to make some compensation on behalf of the court." Xu Ziping said sincerely.

Pei Yue frowned, with a sneer at the corner of his mouth: "Compensation? Mr. Xu still doesn't seem to understand the situation. This matter is completely Fang Yunhu's whim, and he wants to murder Gu Fan and this Marquis, and then affect the southern border army in Daliang.

You and I both know that Gu Fan's father, Gu Liang, the Marquis of Guangping, was the one who controlled the camps in the capital of Daliang and commanded all the camps of the Confederate Army. Fang Yunhu wanted to kill Gu Fan and this Marquis in order to cause chaos in Guangping Marquis and make the Confederate Army suffer.

damage."

Xu Ziping was slightly startled, then forced a smile and said: "What Marquis Pei said is a bit bizarre, I can't understand it."

Pei Yue asked, "You really can't understand?"

Xu Ziping knew that if he didn't understand his answer, the other party would definitely fall out on the spot, but if he answered clearly, wouldn't that be a slap in his face? Despite his unparalleled eloquence and astuteness, he was actually forced to do so by a simple rhetorical question from this young powerful man.

corner.

Pei Yue looked into Xu Ziping's eyes and said in a deep voice: "Mr. Xu, you should know in your heart that the reason why we can sit here and negotiate is because the emperor of Daliang is unwilling to use weapons and weapons, so that the people's lives are in ruins. In terms of military capabilities and armaments, we

There are 300,000 troops waiting on the southern border. Regardless of whether this matter is right or wrong, Fang Yunhu put the two countries into the danger of war in order to show off."

He walked slowly back to his seat and sat down. His momentum was as majestic as a mountain, and he said one by one: "Is it a fight? Is it a conversation?"

The officials of the Daliang Ministry of Rites, including Sheng Duanming, looked surprised and a little happy at this moment. The attendants around Xu Ziping opposite were all calmed down by the word "Pei Yue", and there was gradually fear in their eyes.

Xu Ziping met Pei Yue's stern gaze and said after a long hesitation: "What Pei Hou said is not unreasonable. Fang Yunhu made a mistake and caused very serious losses to your country. In order to make up for this mistake, our country is willing to compensate you in silver."

Seven million three hundred thousand taels."

This is the first time Xu Ziping has given conditions in four days of negotiations.

Pei Yue looked at him expressionlessly, raised his hand and said, "Master Xu, please sit down."

Xu Ziping felt relieved, thinking that the other party would stop there, but just as his butt touched the chair, he heard Pei Yue continue: "Does Mr. Xu know that I am capable of making money?"

Xu Ziping didn't understand what it meant, and didn't want to fall into the other party's verbal trap easily, so he could only respond cautiously: "I've heard a little bit."

Pei Yue turned to look at Sheng Duanming and said: "Just now, Shanda people said that Fang Yunhu killed seventy-three of our soldiers in Daliang."

Sheng Duanming nodded and said, "It's absolutely true and can be checked every step of the way."

Pei Yue sneered: "Seventy-three people, 7.3 million silver, one hundred thousand taels per head, haha."

Xu Ziping knew something was wrong and immediately said: "Pei Hou Mingjian, our court does not mean any contempt. In addition to silver, I can also personally apologize to the relatives of the victims in person."

Pei Yue ignored his words at all and said coldly: "There are a total of sixty-three people in your envoy. I will give you a total of seven million taels of silver. This money does not need to be paid by the court. I paid for it myself."

, I’ll treat you to a full meal later, and then take you to be chopped outside the city, how about that?”

A fierce murderous intention suddenly appeared on his face, and he shouted angrily: "Apologise in person? Can I go to your graves and apologize after I kill you?"

Xu Ziping could still hold on, but the officials accompanying him in the Southern Zhou Dynasty were all horrified, because they had all heard of the evil reputation of this young powerful man.

The officials of the Daliang Ministry of Rites did not dare to make any sound, and they shared the same hatred with Pei Yue and glared at the people opposite.

This is really because the conditions given by Xu Ziping are too outrageous. Although 7.3 million taels of silver is a lot, it is nothing to the face of a dynasty. If Pei Yue agrees to this condition, wouldn't it mean that Xiwu or

As long as the Southern Zhou Dynasty is willing to spend money, the people of Daliang can be killed by them?

Xu Ziping actually knew that this method was inappropriate. However, it was difficult for a clever woman to make a meal without rice. The emperor would not allow him to hand over Fang Yunhu, let alone allow him to cede the three cities of Jiangling. So what else could he do besides money?

Pei Yue looked at the opposite side coldly, and realizing that the heat was enough, he lowered his tone and said: "Master Xu, don't mention the money anymore. If you want long-term peace between Liang and Zhou, you must show some sincerity."

Xu Ziping felt cold sweat break out on his back and asked as calmly as possible: "May I ask why Pei Hou is sincere?"

Pei Yue said calmly: "It's very simple. The three cities of Jiangling belong to Daliang, and your country's Chengbei Camp will be moved fifty miles south."

Xu Ziping thought that this was indeed the case. He shook his head decisively and said: "Marquis Pei, this is absolutely impossible. Furthermore, the three cities of Jiangling are the territory of our court. If your country wants to talk sincerely, it should return these three cities first."

Pei Yue snorted softly and said: "Then I will give in one more step. The Chengbei camp can be moved, but the ownership of the three cities in Jiangling must be clear. Mr. Xu, those three cities are the legacy of the war between the two countries for more than ten years.

In the past, it has long been within the territory of Daliang. Now that your country wants to repair the relationship between the two countries, and there is a treacherous villain like Fang Yunhu who has committed many crimes, it is better for both sides to take a step back."

Xu Ziping felt sad in his heart. If it weren't for the unhealthy atmosphere in the country and the weakening of national power and weapons, why would he be in such difficulty?

Negotiation, after all, you must have enough confidence to negotiate.

The reason why Pei Yue is so strong, apart from his own ability, is that the more important thing is not the strength of Beiliang?

However, he could not agree to this condition no matter what.

Time passed quietly, and there was silence in the room. Compared to his violence just now, Pei Yue seemed very patient at the moment. In fact, he was not making decorations these days. The reason why he allowed these great scholars to perform their rhetoric was just to observe.

The other party’s bottom line.

Emperor Kaiping did not expect him, a warrior who had not read many books, to win a piece of land at the negotiation table. He just asked him to temper the Southern Zhou envoys.

When the atmosphere almost suffocated the officials of the Southern Zhou Dynasty, Pei Yue slowly said: "This won't work, and that won't work either. It seems that Mr. Xu's trip to the north is just perfunctory."

Xu Ziping smelled a hint of table overturning and had to lower his attitude and said: "Pei Hou, I beg your pardon for not being able to agree to this condition. Xu would rather die here than give away an inch of our land."

Pei Yue shook his head and said: "The two countries are at war and they haven't killed the envoys yet. Although I don't read much, I have heard these dramas. What I said just now was just a moment of anger. Mr. Xu, please rest assured, your country's envoys are also

Please rest assured that I will ensure that you remain unscathed in Daliang Jingdu."

Xu Ziping smiled bitterly and said, "Thank you very much, Marquis Pei."

Pei Yue said: "This is my job, so there is no need to say thank you. Mr. Xu, considering that you also have difficulties, I will not embarrass you too much, but if you want to settle this matter, don't use a mere few million taels of silver."

Perfunctory. I will give you two choices, you can consider them carefully."

Xu Ziping could only reply: "Marquis Pei, please speak."

Pei Yue stretched out two fingers and said slowly: "First, starting from next year, the Zhou Dynasty will pay tribute of 500,000 taels of silver to Daliang every year for seventy-three years. At the same time, they will enter into a brotherly alliance. Liang will be the brother dynasty.

Zhou is his younger brother’s dynasty.”

Xu Ziping remained silent, obviously he would not agree to this humiliating condition.

Pei Yue put down his index finger and only raised a lone middle finger, and continued: "Second, please keep the navy of your country away from the five peaks of the Tiancang River and cross to the Shennvdu section. From the date of the conclusion of the alliance, your navy is not allowed to go back to the Shenvdu section.

Enter this area of ​​water. Any step you take will be regarded as a declaration of war against Daliang, and there will be no peace between the two countries."

Xu Ziping was shocked.

At this moment, he even suspected that the other party had the ability to read minds and was able to reveal the bottom line given by His Majesty the Emperor before the trip.

Because this matter is extremely secret, only His Majesty and himself know about it, not even Fang Xie Xiao.

Xu Ziping sighed in his heart, is this young powerful man really just a vulgar martial artist?
