Upon hearing these four words, Murong Bing's face darkened.
Because General Shan was wounded and retreated, the Xiongnu marched straight in and captured not only the three cities of Dashang, but also captured many of his people!
This time they invited the Huns to come over to negotiate peace and rescue the merchants and people.
It's said to be peace talks, but in fact, it's the fucking big merchants who are suing for peace!
When had their great merchants ever been so humiliated?
He said coldly to the door: "I know, let them wait!"
Turning to look at Zhao Rui: "I will make you an accompanying eunuch now. Once I save General Shan, everything will be easy. If I can't save him, you will be buried with him!"
Damn, how cruel!
Don’t even miss the slightest bit of affection!
However, according to reports about General Shan's condition, it is said that evil wind entered his body, causing the wounds on his body to be unable to heal.
If his inference was correct, it should be just a simple wound infection.
This situation is indeed difficult to treat in this day and age.
But for him, it's just a piece of cake.
"Get dressed and follow me out!"
While Murong Bing was talking, she had already put on her clothes.
Zhao Rui also quickly followed suit and dressed up.
Came to the Hall of Supreme Harmony with Murong Bing.
There are already many ministers of great merchants in the palace.
When the ministers saw Murong Bing, they hurriedly saluted: "I have seen your Majesty."
"No gift."
Murong Bing spoke.
Instead, he looked at the men standing in the center of the hall, dressed in Huns' uniforms.
I saw only a few people standing with their heads held high, not saluting or paying respects, and their faces showed no respect at all, they were all unruly.
Murong Bing was angry in her heart, but she still didn't show it on her face.
He said to several people: "The friends of the Huns have come from afar, and I have failed to entertain them well."
"You're welcome, Your Majesty the Great Shang. We people on the grassland like to be direct. I don't know what price you are prepared to pay to save the people of the Great Shang."
Standing among a few people, a young man with an imposing appearance walked forward unceremoniously.
At what cost?
Murong Bing's eyes dimmed slightly.
All the ministers also looked ugly.
Anyway, this time it’s in the name of peace talks!
But the other party's export is asking Dashang to pay a price. Is he treating Dashang as a lamb to be slaughtered?
Too arrogant!
Murong Bing suppressed her anger and asked calmly: "I wonder what you want?"
The young man sneered unceremoniously: "Your Majesty Dashang, we are waiting for the price now, not that we insist on doing this transaction with you. Otherwise, I will never accept your offer.
If we negotiate for peace, I, the Xiongnu, can trample all the lands of your great merchant!"
Arrogant!
Murong Bing and all the ministers were furious!
"Little madman Xiao! Do you really think that my great businessman is easy to bully!?"
"You are so unscrupulous! Have you forgotten how your Huns were suppressed and beaten by my great merchant!"
"Hmph! If General Shan hadn't been ill this time, you wouldn't be able to show off here!"
The young man looked up to the sky and laughed.
He said sarcastically: "It's a pity that your General Shan will not live long! Since you don't accept the force of the Huns, well, I will give you a chance! Aren't you a great businessman who is good at writing? Just use our hands.
I’ll take three cities as bets, and I’ll make a bet with you!”
Betting on literary talent?
Everyone's voices suddenly stopped and they looked at each other.
Murong Bing asked: "How do you want to bet?"
When the young man saw Murong Bing taking the bait, a sly smile appeared on his lips.
Said: "Poetry, lyrics and music are right. Three games win two. If you win, the three cities will be returned. On the contrary, we will take three more cities!"
Everyone looked surprised.
The Huns actually want to bet with them on whether their poems, lyrics, and music are right?
Murong Bing was also a little stunned.
I can't figure out what kind of medicine the other party sells in the gourd.
But this temptation is still very big for her. The competition is whether she is good at home or at home, so there is no reason to retreat?
Murong Bing said: "I can agree, but can you make the decision?"
The young man said proudly: "I am the third son of the Xiongnu royal family. I have full authority to decide this peace negotiation!"
After saying that, he clapped his hands gently.
Just looking at the door, another middle-aged man dressed in Huns walked in.
The young man looked at him with a smile: "Mr. Chen, I'll leave it to you."
The middle-aged man nodded and slowly glanced over the people present.
There was a rather proud look in his eyes, and his face was full of arrogance: "It's easy to say, the third prince is optimistic about it! I wonder who among you will go to fight?"
Seeing his appearance, the whole crowd was shocked and angry.
"Chen Shuxing! Why is it you! You actually became the lackey of the Huns!"
Someone couldn't help but roared angrily.
However, despite being angry, no one dared to stand up in the face of Chen Shuxing's provocation.
Chen Shuxing was the top scholar in the late emperor's era. He was proficient in all kinds of poetry, lyrics, and songs. He had trained many university students!
It can be said that there are only ten fights in the world, but he alone has to monopolize eight fights.
No scholar in the world disagrees with this statement!
Although he was very knowledgeable, he was arrogant due to his talent and was demoted to a commoner for making mistakes during the reign of the previous emperor.
It’s just that when it comes to competing with him, the people present really don’t have the confidence to compete with him!
Facing the challenge, no one dared to step forward to challenge!
Murong Bing felt a sense of humiliation in her heart. She was timid before fighting. Could it be that she wanted to give away three cities to others for free?
But I have to say that Chen Shuxing’s trump card was used by the third prince of the Huns!
When the third prince saw this, he laughed arrogantly: "Faced with your best businessman, there are many ministers who have learned from you, and no one responds?"
Chen Shuxing waved his hand nonchalantly: "It doesn't matter, since no one dares to challenge, let Chen fight against all of you!"
He fights them all alone!?
Murong Bing glanced at the ministers with cold eyes.
But no one dared to meet her gaze.
If you fight alone, no one dares to fight alone, but if you lose, the blame will be huge.
Everyone joins the fight, but actually they don't think they can really win, but at least everyone takes the blame together and the punishment won't be too heavy.
Seeing this, Murong Bing could only sigh helplessly and let it go.
"Then, let's compare poems for the first game. I chose the Battlefield as the title. I believe Chen will be able to take advantage of you."
Chen Shuxing looked at the ministers.
The ministers were silent, which was regarded as acquiescence.
If someone fights against a group of you, and you get a poem title, it is not an advantage at all.
A hint of disdain flashed across the corner of Chen Shuxing's mouth before he spoke:
"All the children on the battlefield are young and beautiful.
Welcome me back to Qidao Mountain with the Five Sutras.
Visit Songzi Cave in the morning and stay at Huiren Bay in the evening.
After talking about it, in the west wind, the boat will be sent back early."
As soon as this poem came out, the ministers either frowned or looked shocked, marveling at Chen Shuxing's talent and learning, but no one responded.
This poem, whether it is a scene or a person, has such a high artistic conception that it is extremely difficult to surpass it.
Although Murong Bing remained calm on the surface, his hands were already sweating.
She has also studied poetry and poetry since she was a child, so she naturally knows how high the artistic conception of this poem is.
Look at the ministers in front of you who are either silent or frowning in thought, but cannot say a word.
Although I was angry in my heart, I was unwilling to do so.
He is a great businessman with a room full of humerus. Could it be that he cannot even compare to Chen Shuxing!?
This is only the first game, are you defeated like this?
"Why don't you let me try?"
Hearing someone's voice, Murong Bing's tense mind relaxed a little.
However, when she and everyone turned around and looked over.
