?

When Zheyu said this, Heizi, full of murderous intent, surrounded Bai Zi, who lost two pieces.

Pei Yuanxian reviewed the chess game again and found that there were hidden secrets in every step.

He has always been a person who takes one step and sees ten steps, but the person in front of him seems to be looking further.

"It is absolutely impossible to have five cities and a million-year-old coins. If Da Yan bullies others too much, then Da Song will not mind fighting each other."

Zheyu stared, with the sunspot in his hand, his amber eyes turned, and the world was eclipsed, "What you rely on is the 200,000 troops of Beirong Zuoxian King, the euphemistically named 30,000 heavy armored cavalry, you think I

Da Yan is under attack from both sides and cannot bargain with you?!"

Even though Pei Yuanxian had a city in his chest, he couldn't help but feel awe-inspiring at this moment. Did he see his chess piece?

Baicao Shi on the side, listening to the conversation between the two, felt that the so-called espionage blockbusters and political dramas were nothing more than that. It was really fun for people with high IQs to play chess.

However, it was too cold on the top of the cliff. Although she wore a lot of clothes and kept drinking hot tea, she still felt cold after a long time. As for the group of people a hundred meters away, they were already stamping their feet. Zheyu again

He was just recovering from a serious injury, "Can you guys speed up?"

"In the royal court of Beirong, King Xian of the Left is the most radical and is eyeing Da Yan. King Xian of the Right is relatively mild. Now, Da Yan's envoys are hurrying towards Beirong. They will bring a truth and a benefit

." Zheyu's white pieces shot towards the heaven and earth chessboard again, and the attack became even more fierce, showing an unstoppable edge.

"The truth is that in Wanzhou, people in the Pei family branch used Beirong students to make profits, intending to provoke disputes between the two countries, and then killed people and silenced them afterwards. The advantage is that the Beirong royal court withdraws its troops, and they can trade with each other on the border between the two sides in the future. Beirong

Horses, beef, and Balin stones were exchanged for Dayan's grain, cloth, and tea."

What Zheyu didn't mention was that among the commodities on the mutual market were Beirong's abundant Codonopsis pilosula, wolfberry, astragalus, Bupleurum, isatis root, and the most precious Cistanche deserticola.

This list was made by Baicao Shi. She was not sure whether the Beirong people knew these herbs, but based on the climate and customs of Beirong, there should be these products. If the relationship between the two countries eases, Dayan will also send a team to collect herbs.

OK.

It was freezing cold, but there was a fine drop of sweat on Pei Yuanxian's forehead. He held the white piece between his index and middle fingers, and the fingertips had turned from pink to white. "This is really a very high move. But, let's

Let me figure it out. Your team of envoys must pass through the battlefield of war, survive by chance, go to King Zuo Xian, and produce enough evidence to prove that all this is a conspiracy of the Song Dynasty. King Zuo Xian is suspicious.

, if you are unhappy, you may cut off the envoy’s good head. Then you have to come up with sufficiently sincere terms for mutual trading. I don’t know how long this tug-of-war will last. I’m not sure whether the hungry Beirong people can give you such a

Much time. It seems that the possibility of achieving all this is zero."

Zheyu smiled, and he changed his position, resting his right arm on his leg, "How could you think that to spread the truth, I only need a thousand paper kites. In addition, the news of the peace talks is for King Youxian.

Believe it or not, if King Zuo Xian does not withdraw his troops, King You Xian will join forces with the Khan to suppress King Zuo Xian."

Pei Yuanxian: "..."

There are paper kites all over the sky, and the truth is written on each kite. After a burst of arrows, all Beirong soldiers will know the truth behind it.

What kind of magnificent scenery will this be?

**

The envoys of the two countries are still waiting and watching.

Their enthusiasm was almost swallowed up by the snow and wind. Some soldiers' feet were frozen and they were stamping their feet quietly, hoping that the peace talks would end soon.

Pei Xianzhi became more and more irritable, and a bad feeling roared in his chest.

He said to Ying Zhexun: "I will increase the bet of ten thousand taels of silver for our regent."

Sure enough, the Pei family is rich.

Ying Zhexin rubbed his hands, not from the cold, but from excitement. Ever since he got on Zheyu's car, his fortune has been like the monkey flying in the sky, soaring into the clouds.

"Okay, Lord Honglu Temple. Once the peace talks are over, I think everyone can settle their differences and sit down and have a drink."

At this moment, some Dayan soldiers carrying burdens came down the mountain. The leader said, "By the order of the temporary young minister of Honglu Temple in our country, I have sent you a hot drink of red dates and ginger tea. Everyone queues up to receive it."

Is there anything more warm to the stomach and heart than a cup of red date and ginger tea in winter?

A Song soldier suddenly lined up in front of the soldier carrying the burden. After doing all this, he suddenly realized that the two countries were still in a mysterious state of hostility. He timidly wanted to retreat.

The second person in line was already standing, and it was Da Yan's.

Soon, soldiers from both countries mixed together and formed a long queue.

The first soldier had already drank ginger tea, which was slightly sweet and warm. This was really the best drink he had ever had this year, no, in his life.

Yi Zhaoxian looked at this scene and fell into deep thought.

**

In Tianyuan Hall.

Emperor Yanwu has received the seventh homing pigeon.

Fu Sheng was overjoyed and reported to the emperor, "Your Majesty, Master Zheyu has swallowed up the two sons of the regent."

You know, in this kind of chess game where we are pressing every step of the way, it is very rare to capture a city or a place.

Emperor Yanwu took the artist's painting and became interested in playing chess. He said, "Come here, let's set up a chess game in Tianyuan Hall and let all the princes come and play."

Fu Sheng was stunned for a moment and then passed on the order.

The chess game was quickly set up, and the princes played against each other in pairs.

The princes looked at the chess game, and their hands holding the chess pieces kept shaking, but they couldn't make the move no matter what.

As for Emperor Yanwu, he wanted to bring Ying Zheming with him, but suddenly a call came from outside the store, "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, your Majesty, your Majesty, she is going to give birth."

Concubine Si has reached confinement and may give birth at any time.

Emperor Yanwu no longer wanted to play chess, and "he took charge of Fusi Palace and summoned all the imperial doctors from the imperial hospital to Fusi Palace to listen to the emperor's orders."

Ying Zheming felt relieved and wiped the cold sweat from his forehead.

He really couldn't play that shocking chess game.

**

On the stone flat, the snow and water have dried, the tea has been left, and the game of chess has come to an end.

Baicao Shi stood up and looked at the team below.

The red date and ginger tea is her creation.

She thought of what she had learned in history textbooks about the prosperous Han and Tang Dynasties, and that maintaining openness to the outside world was the only way to become a powerful country. With her current strength, she was still unable to influence the changes in the current situation, but she was glad that Zheyu's vision surpassed those of the time.

limitations, and she was willing to explore them with him.

In her ears, she heard Zhe Yu's voice, "We will not cut off five cities, but we will open five ports on the border of the Song Dynasty. Da Yan can enter them for free trade. Consular posts will be set up in the ports, and Da Yan will station officials.

To coordinate the commercial disputes between the two countries. In this way, the Song merchants will be exchanged for the right to do business in Dayan. The premise is still to abide by our Dayan laws."

Pei Yuanxian stretched out two fingers and said, "Two ports, this is the bottom line of the Song Dynasty, otherwise we will fight with each other."

Zheyu's last chess piece had fallen, and the white chess piece showed signs of decline. "Prince Regent, you have lost this game."
