Chapter 242: Ways to deal with envoys

The emperor's eyes widened, and the air in the hall spread, and the officials next to him were shocked, and the envoys couldn't figure it out.
What is the dissatisfaction of Emperor Liang with this kind of mutual benefit?
"What do you want?" Yu Wenjie asked directly.
The envoy was a little embarrassed to ask so directly, he hesitated for a while and said: "Xixia doesn't need much, as long as the sage can return the ten gold mines borrowed to Xixia..."
"Borrow?" The emperor said with a sullen face: "Is that what Xixia gave it to me?"
"This... after all is something on the boundary of Xixia." The envoy said: "Since it belongs to our territory, it should be ours. The saint has forcibly asked for such a long time, and it should be paid back."
A group of ministers did not say a word, and He Changan was a little worried. The attitude of the courtiers now hoped that the emperor would obey Xixia and would not provoke a war, but the emperor’s attitude stated that he would not give in half a step. Yu Wenjie is not very good at talking, how should I deal with these envoys now?
Just thinking about whether to go out and help, I heard the emperor in the seat speak: "I think what the envoy said makes sense."
Everyone was taken aback, and the Xixia envoy underneath was even more overjoyed. Is the emperor giving in?
Before raising his head to laugh, he faced Emperor Liang's deep eyes, and then heard him say every word: "What is in the territory should belong to the lord. Xixia's territory should also be the beam? "
The body shook, and several envoys paled.
From a historical point of view, the land where Xixia was located was indeed once owned by the beam. Xixia people were refugees. The beam was divided into a small place for them to live in, which is kind. It was only that Xixia became more and more people, and became a small country independently. Daliang did not object, and only collected huge amounts of tribute each year.
Over time, history can easily be forgotten.
As soon as the emperor said this, the hall was quiet for a long time. He Changan felt that he was domineering, but he was worried that Xixia dog jumped the wall.
The envoys were sweating coldly on their heads, and their eyes turned vigorously to think about countermeasures. However, the great beam now looks not as declining as they thought, and the national strength is still strong, and they cannot fight a war. However, is there no room for a turnaround?
The leading envoy was very desperate. He suddenly missed the talkative prime minister who was there last time, and no longer disliked him for being troublesome. The emperor was obviously more troublesome than him.
The emperor glanced at He Changan next to him, with some messages in his eyes. He Changan saw it, raised his eyebrows slightly, and stood up and said: "Now it is an eventful autumn. Xixia took the initiative to come to Beijing to express his sincerity of allegiance. The minister felt that the emperor could be softer. ."
"How to be gentle?" the emperor asked sternly.
He Changan glanced at the envoys and said with a smile: "There are ten gold mines, and it is naturally not appropriate to give them to Xixia. The officials thought that the furthest one could be given to Xixia, and it would not be in vain. The envoy came all the way."
The envoy was taken aback, and was dissatisfied. The farthest one is the smallest, what's the point of coming back?
But before they expressed their dissatisfaction, the emperor first expressed his dissatisfaction: "Xixia and Daliang are friendly nations, and now they have to use a gold mine to return the gift, so next time Liang helps Xixia, should I also ask the city to return the gift?"
"This..." He Changan smiled and said, "Because the beam is a big country, it should be more generous."
"Kenhou often raises unsatisfactory villains." The emperor frowned, "Don't you think Hou Ye?"
"No, Xixia is a country of contentment and gratitude." He Changan smiled and turned to look at the envoys: "Right?"
This is obvious to catch the ducks on the shelves, and no one can take off the high hats first! The envoys of Xixia were all dumbfounded. I didn't expect that the Emperor Liang would directly settle the matter as soon as he cooperated well!
If they don't agree, the emperor will definitely not give one in a anger, and will start a war. But if you agree, one... is too few!
In a dilemma, the leading envoy raised his eyes and saw the subtle changes in the expression of the Dragon God King. That delicate face obviously contained impatience and anger, as if it interfered with Lord Hou's face, and it didn't happen.
If the big beam is really empty and can't fight a war, will the emperor be like this?
After hesitating again and again, he said: "Thank you Shengshang Goodwill, Xixia will definitely help Daliang with all his strength."
If you agree to it, they will stay in this palace for a few days anyway, and then you can inquire about the situation of Liang.
The officials were a little surprised, if they really only used a gold mine for Xixia's help and not fighting, it would be a real profit. However, will the envoys of Xixia discover the real situation and ask for renegotiation?
Tang Yue was very worried about this issue, so he immediately asked the envoy who was arranging the accommodation after he retreated. As soon as I heard it, Empress Defei was in full control.
"Isn't the empress recuperating?" He was a little surprised: "I still need to work on these things when my belly is so big?"
The palace person replied in a low voice: "The empress said she is the most reliable, and she can't rest assured if she gives it to others."
Tang Yue was silent.
Huachun made people clean up the palace in advance, without deliberately making it magnificent, just like the last time the Xixia envoy lived. It's just that she bought new clothes for the palace people, and the makeup requirements are also extremely high. There are flowers and white jade palace lanterns in all the palaces, which look noble and atmospheric.
"This...how do you find out?" The envoy was embarrassed: "I heard that Lord Xi is in the White Horse Temple."
"I have sent someone to ask, I don't know if I can get news." Another person said: "Let's get close to the maids here first?"
Everyone thought it was a good idea, and then they kept a court lady who came in to give things away.
The maid looked very clever, her eyes rolled, and she smiled and saluted: "Slavery Ruier, you can tell me anything you want."
Looking at the clothes she was wearing, she should be of high rank. Several people were a little embarrassed. After looking around for a while, they found that the palace lady's gaze rested on the gem ring in their hand.
Are you a greedy person?
Several envoys were overjoyed and hurriedly talked to her, asked about the rules of the palace, and put a ring for her by the way.
Rarity smiled crookedly, and she took the ring and said, "Adults can ask whatever they want to know. The maidservant knows everything in this palace, but...the maidservant loves the ring."
Understand, ask a question for a gem ring.
This is really expensive! Everyone here is a bit dissatisfied, but if you think about it again, the news in exchange for this must be more accurate.
So a few people gathered together and picked some questions to ask.
"Does the Liang Treasury need Xixia support?"
"No need." Ruier said: "What is shouting is the emptiness of the treasury. In fact, the emperor is pretending to be pitiful to the people to increase taxes. In fact, the Treasury is very abundant. Hey, please, adults, please do not spread this word."
