Chapter 74:

Yeluluan couldn't take care of these at all, and he confirmed with an unsteady breath: "You say it again!"
Yan Guo secretly set up a news office in Daqi's capital to facilitate their exchange of news, and Yi Xin had just arrived from there.
"Second prince, the minister just got the urgent news, so he went to Yanyun Tower. This is the news that he just got!" Yi Xin said hastily, sweating profusely. "There is nothing wrong with the soldier. Yu Fuyun."
They Yan Guo and Yu's family have faced each other for a hundred years. Once in Yan Guo, they almost talked about the word "Yu" and changed their colors. Everyone can admit their mistakes, but Yu Fuyun can't be wrong!
Yeluluan murmured: "But Yu Fuyun... isn't he sick? Isn't he still in the capital?"
Having said this, his eyes condensed slightly, and he suddenly remembered, as if he hadn't seen Yu Fuyun for a long time.
In the past, Yu Fuyun followed Gu Zezhi from time to time for the peace talks between the two countries. Later, since the second prince Gu Jing took over the peace talks, let alone Yu Fuyun, even Gu Zezhi rarely appeared. Therefore, he never noticed that Yu Fuyun was no longer in the capital!
Yu Fuyun went to Beijiang secretly!
"mean!"
Yeluluan's teeth clenched and creaked, and finally squeezed out a voice from between his teeth, and asked Yixin, "When did it happen?"
Yi Xin immediately replied: "Just yesterday, Fei Ge Chuan Shu just arrived."
"The useless thing was actually captured by Yu Fuyun!" Yeluluan picked up the jug on the table and threw it on the ground, bitterly, "Daqi is despicable, here is peace talks with us , They actually sent troops to attack my Dayan."
"I'm going to see Emperor Daqi, and I must ask him to give me an explanation!"
"Does Da Qi want to fight or make peace!"
Yeluluan’s word is heavier than every word, and his anger is rising.
Therefore, the two Beiyan envoys rushed into the palace with Yeluluan, but the emperor didn't see them, so the servant of the royal study room shut them out.
Yeluluan was unwilling to go back like this. He waited and waited outside the Imperial Study Room, and he was allowed to enter the Imperial Study Room after being aired for more than an hour.
In the imperial study room, not only the emperor, but also Gu Zezhi, but brothers Gu Jing and Gu Wei were also sitting by the window.
Gu Zezhi drank the tea elegantly and calmly without even looking at Yeluluan, but Gu Jing was a little surprised when he saw him.
Without waiting for Yeluluan's salute, the emperor asked indifferently: "Prince Yelu is eager to see me why?"
Yeluluan's expression was even more violent, and her voice pointedly asked, "His Majesty Emperor Daqi, why did you send troops to attack my Dayan in spite of the peace talks between the two countries? What is the reason?!"
"Daqi must return the three cities of Beimeng City, Tuli City and Lunta City to Dayan, and punish Yu Fuyun."
Yeluluan said angrily, her face pale.
The emperor had just received the military report from Northern Xinjiang. At this moment, seeing Yeluluan's anxious and depraved appearance, he felt very happy in his heart, and he was holding back a smile.
Gu Jing: "!"
Gu Jing was confused when she heard it and looked at the emperor. What's the matter, aren't the two countries in peace talks? Why did the war suddenly start again? !
The emperor looked at Gu Zezhi on the side and asked indifferently: "Zezhi, you are responsible for the peace talks between the two countries. Tell me, what is going on?"
Everyone looked at Gu Zezhi swiftly.
Gu Zezhi calmed down and smiled all the time. He looked at Yeluluan who was angrily a few steps away, and asked, "The six hundred Turkic horses infected with horse plague that Prince Yelu gave to Daqi. How to say?"
"..."
"..."
"..."
As a result, everyone's eyes turned to Yeluluan.
Yeluluan: "!"
How did Gu Zezhi know? !
Yeluluan was still too young after all. At this moment, he could not conceal the shock in his expression at all, and his thoughts flew: In other words, their plan was seen through by Gu Zezhi, and the plan failed.
Gu Zezhi and Yeluluan looked at each other without even lifting their eyebrows. They said lightly, "Prince Yelu, come and go without being indecent. I am a country of etiquette. This gift from Prince Yelu is natural. It is to be paid back."
Yeluluan: "!!!"
His face seemed to be splashed with ink, and it was a bit ugly.
He thought of Yu Fuyun... Dayan's army and Yu Fuyun can be regarded as "old acquaintances". Yu Fuyun is used to using tricks. Even if there is no chance on the battlefield, he will create opportunities, not to mention. Now Dayan has such a big flaw!
How could Yu Fuyun let it go!
Gu Zezhi picked up the tea cup and took a sip, his expression indifferent.
Yeluluan's chest became stuffy, and his whole body trembled slightly with anger, and his eyes spit fire, really wishing to cut Gu Zezhi and Yu Fuyun who was far in the northern borders.
mean!
Seeing Yeluluan with a green complexion, the emperor felt as if drinking a jar of fine wine in his heart, and his heart was very happy: Yeluluan is about to vomit blood, right? !
Since the founding of Daqi, there have been constant wars with Beiyan. The two countries have always been feuds. Now that Beiyan can suffer such a big loss, the emperor feels happy from the bottom of his heart.
Gu Zezhi stood with his hand in his hand and glanced at Gu Jing lightly. The corner of his lips formed a shallow arc, and he smiled and said, "This time I still have to thank the second prince for helping drag Prince Yelu's attention."
Gu Jing: "..."
Gu Jing's pupils shrank slightly, and he thought: No, he didn't!
His face was stiff, already startled.
In this short span of less than half an hour, his heart has been ups and downs several times. He was almost dumbfounded by this incident, and he did not expect that Gu Zezhi would suddenly come out like this. Also drag into the water!
He really didn't connect with Gu Zezhi secretly!
Gu Jing's mouth opened slightly, and his face seemed to be covered by a cloud, making it more and more ugly.
Yeluluan: "!!!"
Yeluluan's eyes shot at Gu Jing like an arrow, showing resentment.
"You..." Yeluluan's voice couldn't hide the vibrato.
That's it, that's it! !
Gu Jing dared to fool him during this period of time, and he believed it, and was played around by fools like Gu Jing.
It’s no wonder that since Gu Jing got involved in the peace talks, Gu Zezhi stopped showing up, just let Gu Jing spend time with him, and made him mistakenly think that Gu Jing was going to grab the merits with Gu Zezhi. It turns out that they are a black face. , One with a white face!
Gu Jing ah Gu Jing.
Yeluluan became more and more aggrieved as she thought about it, feeling like her chest was crushed by something, and blood surged.
He felt a smell of sweetness in his throat, and a mouthful of blood spit out from his throat, dripping from the corner of his mouth.
"Tick, tick..."
A drop of blood dripped on the golden brick ground below, shocking.
Gu Jing: "!"
Gu Jing also recovered at this moment.
He is not a stupid person. At this time, he also wanted to understand the ins and outs. He subconsciously wanted to tell Yeluluan that he didn’t have one, but the emperor was here. If Yeluluan told him about cooperating with him, then what should he do? Explain to the father? !
Gu Jing's eyes changed constantly, and he could only swallow all those words back and froze on the spot.
He was worried, but he didn't know that the emperor had seen all the changes in his face.
The emperor looked at Gu Jing and then at Gu Zezhi. His heart was complicated: King Duan gave birth to a good son. If his son is 70% to 80% of Gu Zezhi's, what a worry! !
The emperor couldn't help looking at Gu Yu who was sitting by the window.
Gu Ju sat upright on a armchair. He was small, his feet could not touch the ground, and he was hung in the air, but he was neatly motionless, like a little adult.
His face was slightly tilted, listening carefully, and his mouth was slightly pursed, as if thinking.
The emperor often asked Gu Ju to follow Gu Zezhi. This time when Gu Zezhi dealt with Beiyan's affairs, he always took Gu Ju by his side, taught him and gave him guidance.
Fortunately, Gu Ju is still young and still has plasticity. Let Gu Zezhi help Gu Ju in the future. Gu Ju can learn a thing or two from him, and he will benefit infinitely in the future.
Gu Zezhi was still gentle and elegant, not surprised or impatient, not arrogant or arrogant, as if he hadn't seen Yeluluan vomiting blood, and said with a smile: "Prince Yelu, dare you to ask if you want to continue the peace talks?"
His voice is clear and gentle, and his eyes are bright, as if he is polite with the brilliance of the moon.
Yeluluan wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth with his cuff, his face pale as paper.
"Peace talk?" His eyes were sharp and dark, his teeth clenched, and he gritted his teeth and said, "First return the three cities!"
While speaking, Yeluluan's chest was violently ups and downs again.
In stark contrast to his excitement is Gu Zezhi's indifference. He said lightly: "It seems that your country does not want to talk about it."
Without waiting for Yeluluan's answer, Gu Zezhi suggested to the emperor with a fist: "The emperor, it is better to let Fuyun take advantage of the victory, and maybe you can still fight all the way to King Yan."
The emperor raised his hand and patted on the desk, and said loudly, "Good too!"
These two words changed the atmosphere in Deyu Study Room again.
Gu Jing's eyes opened slightly, her fists clenched, and veins appeared on the back of her hand.
The two Beiyan envoys behind Yeluluan were in a hurry. One of the middle-aged envoys strode past Yeluluan and eagerly said to the emperor: "Your Majesty Emperor Daqi, don’t get angry. Daqi mentioned the terms of the peace talks last time. , I promised for my king."
"Oh?" The emperor raised his right eyebrow slightly, and struck a fist with his right hand on the desk twice. "Bring me the draft and the book."
Gu Jing only reacted at this time. He came here for the peace talks at first today, but the emperor didn't ask any questions, and just left him alone until now.
Hearing this, he hurriedly submitted the previously prepared and book to the emperor.
The emperor scanned the terms of the peace book with a glance and ten lines, with a sneer on the corners of his lips. Since ancient times, the emperor has had an unrelenting momentum.
"Is this what you planned?" The emperor looked at Gu Jing sharply.
Articles and articles in this book are biased towards Beiyan. Those who don’t know are afraid that they are not victorious, but defeated!
Gu Jing's face was even more ugly, and he could naturally see that his father was extremely dissatisfied with this peace book.
However, when he drafted this and book, how did he know that Gu Zezhi and Yu Fuyun would cooperate secretly, and how did he know that Yu Fuyun would lead his troops to take down the three cities of Beiyan! !
Gu Zezhi clearly deliberately kept it from him, wanting to see him embarrassed in front of his father, right?
and……
Gu Jing really disagrees with Gu Zezhi's actions, and blames him in her heart.
In his view, good relations between the two countries are the long-term strategy.
Gu Zezhi actually let Daqi go to war for a moment. This time he was lucky. Yu Fuyun took the three cities of Beimeng City, Tuli City and Lanta City. What if he was not lucky? !
Wouldn't it be that Daqi's people fell into the flames of war again!
Gu Jing took two deep breaths before reluctantly calming down, and solemnly said to the emperor: "Father, the friendship between the two countries is the blessing of the people, and the children think that peace is the most important thing. Negotiation."
Gu Jing felt that both sides could take a step back. For example, if they return the two cities to the country of Yan, then the country of Yan will definitely think of Daqi's good, so that the two countries can live together peacefully in the future.
emperor:"……"
The emperor's eyes flickered, and slowly grasped the jade finger on his thumb, looked at Gu Yu again and asked, "Yu'er, what do you think?"
Gu Jing couldn't believe her ears, and the emperor father asked Gu Wei, who was only six years old, what is this? !
He felt as if he had been slapped in front of everyone.
Gu Yu often followed Gu Zezhi during this period of time. He also watched and listened to some seriously, "Father, Da Qi is a victorious country."
The emperor stroked his beard, and his handsome face gained a three-point look. He stroked his palm and said, "That's right."
"I want to have peace talks, okay," the emperor said with a smile, "Zezhi, redo the peace book."
Gu Zezhi stood up, took his orders, and calmly offered his terms:
"The three cities of North Mengcheng, Tuli City and Lunta City have since belonged to Daqi."
"Set the Lunta River and Lunta Prairie to Daqi."
"Compensation for Daqi 500,000 taels of gold, five million taels of silver, and 3,000 strong and healthy Turkic horses, including 2,000 mares."
"..."
Ye Luluan and the other envoys of Beiyan made their faces increasingly ugly, and their hearts dripped with blood, as if there was a knife digging through their hearts. This is the next time that Shu is better than Gu Ze. Talk to them harder.
He simply opened his mouth to the lion.
Gu Jing's face was blue and white, and he felt that Gu Zezhi was deliberately disrupting the situation, insisting that the two countries fail to reach a peace talk, but his father seemed to have been poisoned by him, and he seemed to appreciate him very much.
After finally waiting for Gu Zezhi to finish, Yeluluan's complexion had changed several times.
He said stiffly: "No!"
Absolutely not!
If he accepts such a peace agreement, and waits for him to return to Dayan, what awaits him is the thunderous anger of his father and the ridicule of his brothers, and the throne of Yan Wang is afraid that he will be completely missed!
"Then go to war!" Gu Zezhi smiled lightly.
His tone was so casual, as if the war between the two countries was regarded as a small fight between two children.
"..." Yeluluan's expression was even more ugly.
He didn't dare to take this, he knew his family affairs, their vitality was so bad that they would be unable to fight again in a few years.
Therefore, he wanted to use the horse plague to destroy the Northern Warhorse and take down Fufeng City.
When the time comes, even if Daqi suffers a big loss, he will not dare to go to war again...
Does Daqi still have spare energy?
Yeluluan's mood was numb for a while, and his heart was even more chaotic.
He couldn't help but look at Gu Zezhi again. Gu Zezhi stood with his hands down, his long body standing jade, wisps of sunlight sprinkled a mottled light and shadow on him through the shade of the window, as if he was coated with a light layer. The halo, personable.
The corners of Gu Zezhi's lips smiled, but just standing there quietly, with an aura of mastery in his chest, people dare not look down upon it.
Ye Fuyun is now in northern Xinjiang, and their Great Yan Kingdom has lost three cities. Does Da Qi have any other players...
Just thinking about it, Yeluluan felt like a huge rock was pressing in his heart, and he couldn't breathe.
Thinking about it, Yeluluan didn't show any timid expression on her face, and said with her head upright: "If you want to fight, I won't be afraid of Dayan Warriors!"
Gu Zezhi smiled without saying a word, did not even raise his eyebrows.
Yeluluan felt that the boulder on his chest seemed to have become heavier, and Gu Zezhi's appearance seemed too sure.
The air in the Imperial Study Room became more solemn as the two confronted each other.
Upon seeing this, Gu Jing felt anxious: If Gu Zezhi continued to be so provocative, this did not force Bei Yan to go to war with them, but in the end it would only hurt both countries.
Gu Jing looked at the emperor eagerly.
After the imperial case, the emperor didn't speak, he took his own tea cup and drank tea gracefully, as if he didn't care about Yeluluan's challenge.
Yeluluan was also looking at the emperor, and he was even more confused.
There was a dead silence in the imperial study room, and the needle could be heard.
The two Beiyan envoys beside Yeluluan were sweating in cold sweat. They felt that the second prince had also spoken too absolutely. The current situation was obviously not good for their country. If the Emperor Daqi is forced to go to war, he must go to war. None of them can afford this consequence!
As the silence spread, the air became more and more dignified, just as dull as a summer rainstorm.
The two Beiyan envoys tried their best to wink Yeluluan, but Yeluluan remained motionless, his heart hung in the air, always feeling that Gu Zezhi was deliberately bluffing, but there was no bottom.
I don't know how long it took, and suddenly there was a mess of footsteps outside.
Zhou Xin came in hurriedly and presented a letter respectfully: "The emperor, just intercepted the flying pigeons from Yan State to the capital. It is a military newspaper."
While speaking, Zhou Xin glanced at Yeluluan meaningfully.
Yeluluan and the two Beiyan envoys were both surprised, and an ominous premonition emerged in their hearts. Could it be that the news office set up by Yan Guo in the capital was exposed?
The emperor glanced at the Beiyan Army report, his lips curled up, and waved: "Show it to Prince Yelu."
Zhou Xin submitted the military report to Yeluluan.
Yeluluan's hand trembled, and the military report in his hand almost didn't let go. Please write clearly on it--
Yu Fuyun had led his troops to take down Lanta River last night!
And this military newspaper was written in Yanwen, and underneath it was the seal of General Xiao Li, as well as the unique seal of their Dayan, which could not be faked.
Inside the imperial study room, there was silence.
Yeluluan: "!!!"
For Yeluluan, this news is tantamount to the last straw that crushes the camel.
Gu Zezhi looked at Yeluluan with a smile and asked, "Do you sign it?"
Yeluluan's body tightened even more, remembering that Gu Zezhi had just made it clear that the "Lunta River" should be assigned to Daqi. In other words, did Gu Zezhi know that Yu Fuyun would take the Lunta River? !
Yeluluan's heart sank again.
The two Beiyan envoys also thought to go together, and their pupils flickered brightly and darkly, and they only felt like a butcher knife was placed above their heads, and the clothes behind them had been wet.
Yeluluan's heart became even more chaotic, and his whole body seemed to be soaked in a damp swamp, sinking deeper and deeper, sinking deeper...
Everyone looked at Yeluluan, not only the emperor, Gu Jing, etc., but also the two envoys of Beiyan.
Everyone looked different, some were calm, some were nervous, some were chaotic, and some were anxious...
I don't know how long it took, Yeluluan finally spit out a word with difficulty: "Sign."
This word seemed to exhaust all the strength of his whole body, and his whole person looked exhausted.
The two Beiyan envoys were relieved when they heard the words. They were really afraid that the trouble would go on again. Tonight, the Northern Army would continue to march northward. Then they would be the sinners of Dayan forever!
On the same day, the emperor announced that Zuo Shi Lang of the Ministry of Rites re-drafted the peace book. The three cities and one river in Beiyan, plus the Lunta prairie, will always belong to Daqi, plus the five hundred thousand taels of gold and five A million taels of silver, three thousand Turkic horses, and annual tribute and other provisions.
The Minister Zuo of the Ministry of Rites quickly drafted a new Japanese book according to what Care Zezhi had said. It seemed calm on the surface, but in fact he was frightened.
The previous peace book led by the second prince Gu Jing was also drawn up by him. It is clear that the terms of the previous few days were only for Beiyan to compensate Daqi one thousand Turkic horses and one hundred thousand taels of silver. , Daqi will marry the princess and the second prince Beiyan, and the two countries have become a brotherly country.
Suddenly, the terms of the Heshu have undergone earth-shaking changes. According to these terms, it is almost equivalent to a layer of flesh and blood from Bei Yan.
Happy, really happy!
The Minister Zuo of the Ministry of Rites prepared the peace book and after drying the ink, he carefully presented the newly drawn peace book to the emperor for review.
After the emperor looked over, he suddenly said, "Add one more item. From now on, the second prince Yelu will stay in Daqi Capital."
"..."
"..."
"..."
Yeluluan suddenly changed her face and raised her voice, "Why?! There is no such thing in the clause just now!"
Staying in Daqi is tantamount to becoming Dayan's proton in Daqi. How could Yeluluan agree? He is still waiting to return to China, and he has to fight for the crown prince!
The emperor slowly turned the jade jade finger on his thumb, his eyes were sharp, and he calmly said: "Since the second prince Yelu has obtained the drawing of the compound bow, of course I can't let you go back."
"The second prince Yelu, Daqi is also good, with a vast land and abundant resources, and talents come forth in large numbers, right?"
Yeluluan was cold all over, his blue eyes almost stared to the extreme.
The emperor’s words were like another heavy hammer hitting Yeluluan’s heart. He only felt that the cold swamp seemed to spread to his lips...
Did Emperor Daqi really know everything? !
how come? ! Gu Jing's expression was also a bit wrong, and she almost made a noise without being gagged.
The emperor didn't even look at Gu Jing. He looked at Yeluluan and said, "I will give you the marriage and the mansion for you, the third princess and Princess Yingluo."
"After you get married, the three of you will never leave the house again."
"These are all written in the Japanese book."
The Minister Zuo Shi Lang of the Ministry of Rites only promised, and took the peace book to make up a few more, and his heart was even more shocked: the emperor’s words just revealed too much meaning...
Is this a marriage...or life imprisonment/imprisonment? The three princesses and Princess Yingluo made a big mistake, right? ?
Yeluluan was finally convinced: Emperor Daqi really knew everything.
The Minister Zuo of the Ministry of Rites made up the new Heshu in a short while and finished it, and put it in front of Yeluluan. The terms of the Heshu were written in Daqi's and Dayan's words respectively, and they were listed clearly. Chu, clearly.
For Yeluluan, every word in the book is so dazzling, every stroke seems like countless needles stuck in his heart.
His generous chest undulated violently, and he wanted to tear the Japanese book in front of him.
Of course he didn't want to sign, but he knew in his heart that he had no other choice. Even if he didn't sign, the envoy who came with him this time would be qualified to sign for him.
Asoye stepped forward and whispered: "Second Prince..."
This call is unclear at first sound, but in Yeluluan's ears it is no different than a reminder and a threat.
If Yeluluan doesn’t sign because he doesn’t want to be a proton, then he is the sinner of Dayan. Even if he returns to China, King Yan will not let him go. What's more, he now has the drawing of a compound bow. Emperor Daqi is absolutely not. Will let him go!
Maybe it's not just him, all of their envoys may not be able to leave.
At this time, he took the initiative to sign the peace agreement, so when the news came back to the country of Yan, he still sacrificed for the country of Yan.
Yeluluan walked hard toward the bookcase with the Heshu by the window, but it was a short distance of less than three feet. To him, it was like a sea of ​​swords and flames.
Step by step, step by step...
He couldn't believe that things had developed to this point!
He was actually calculated by Gu Zezhi and Yu Fuyun!
Finally, Yeluluan walked to the book table and stiffly picked up the wolf pen on the pen.
Every movement of his was so difficult and so slow, and when the pen was held in his hand, the blue veins on the back of his dark hand burst.
The Minister Zuo Shi Lang of the Ministry of Rites stared at the Heshu and watched Yeluluan sign and seal the Heshu.
The dust settled.
The emperor faintly ordered: "Zhou Xin, you should send the second prince Yelu and the two envoys back to Siyi Pavilion, and you must protect them thoroughly."
The implication was that Yeluluan and the two Beiyan envoys were both under house arrest.
Zhou Xin responded quickly.
Yeluluan's face was as black as the bottom of a pot, and he walked away without even saluting the emperor.
The two Beiyan envoys didn't dare to do like Yeluluan, and bowed to the emperor politely, and then they chased Yeluluan and left the Imperial Study Room.
Gu Jing: "..."
Gu Jing stared at the door curtain trembling in mid-air, still in shock.
When he turned his head, he met the emperor's eyes, and the father and son looked at each other, and the emperor's disappointment and indifference were beyond words.
Gu Jing's heart sank instantly, and he slightly opened his lips to say something, but the emperor raised his hand to stop him.
The emperor asked sharply: "You gave Yeluluan the drawing of the compound bow?"
Gu Jing: "!"
Seeing Gu Jing who was speechless, the emperor was even more disappointed with this son. He went on to say: "Prince Thai was in charge of the mass production of composite bows in the Ministry of Industry, so he has composite bow design drawings in his hand. Drawings, you deliberately moved the tiger away from the mountain, first managed to distract the prince of Thailand and let him go to northern Xinjiang."
Gu Jing: "!!!"
The emperor's eyes became deeper.
His son has grown up, he has a plan, and he has ambition. Although he can see some clues in his steps and steps, he did not remove all the fragments until Gu Zezhi's words were broken. Stringed up.
"The reason why Yeluluan proposed to let Changning get married is what you meant?"
"Yingluo and Changning have already fought over whom to get married. You know Yingluo's heart knot, so you put pressure on her through the relationship between the two countries and encouraged her to steal the composite bow design from the study of the Prince of Thailand. , Right?"
Gu Jing: "!!!"
The emperor: "Gu Jing, as Daqi's prince, you betrayed Daqi. You let me down!"
"Emperor Father, Erchen has never betrayed Daqi. Everything the Erchen did is for Daqi." Gu Jing knelt down with a thump and looked up at the emperor's defense.
"Father, the peace talks between the two countries are related to Da Qi's future destiny. Da Qi can no longer withstand another hard fight."
"Last time, Daqi and Beiyan fought intermittently for more than ten years. Every year, the tax revenue from Jiangnan went to northern Xinjiang, which was not enough to bear the military salary and grain."
"So many years of war have caused the lives of the northern borders to become charcoal. There are almost no strong men. There are not enough soldiers and food and grass. There are still turbulences in Daqi from time to time..."
"Father, Da Qi needs to recuperate!"
Gu Jing looked at the emperor sincerely, with such sincere expression.
