"The court's move really made us feel heartbroken." Luo Shiji, who had always been happy and angry in the camp of the Hedong anti-threat army, couldn't help but get angry. At this time, they were not far from the capital, so they also quickly received news that the grain trucks that went out from the north gate of the capital could not be concealed.

"Dog official! Dog official!" Qin Shixin was furious when he thought about how difficult it was for him and Luo Shiji to go to Beijing to seek food, and how generous they were to treat the Northern Territory.

"The treacherous and treacherous country is ruined! I must go to Beijing to sue the Queen Mother and His Majesty, and demand that such people who are harming the country be severely punished!" Zhang Guo and his hair were all hungry, and he endured all the grievances he had suffered before, but at this time he could no longer bear it.

Contrary to the angry Li You and Zhang Guo and others, Arubu's tent was full of joy at this time. Chen Jing'an not only sent 10,000 stones of grain, but also hundreds of pigs and sheep, hundreds of baskets of vegetables, thousands of jars of fine wine, and even the seasonings obtained from cooking were prepared properly, for fear that these Beilu masters would not be able to eat well.

That's not all. After reporting the gift list, Chen Jing'an bowed and said, "The Queen Mother is afraid that you will come from afar and don't bother to bring the chef, so she sent ten imperial chefs in the palace to cook delicious food for the Khan and the National Master. I hope you can accept it." After that, he turned to Yuan Zhang with a shy face, "Master National Master, there are two of these imperial chefs who are most proficient in the sea bass sashimi and water shield soup in Jiangnan. Master National Master has been in the north for a long time, so it must be difficult to eat this kind of delicious food from his hometown, right?"

Yuan Zhang once again underestimated the lower limit of these officials. He just asked for tens of stones of food. Unexpectedly, the other party sent so many things. He couldn't help but think that if these officials could use one-tenth of their thoughts of currying favors and giving gifts to govern the country, I'm afraid the Wei would have driven the tribes of Mobei thousands of miles away long ago, how could they end up with the current situation?

Arubu couldn't understand these people anymore. I led a 200,000 army to attack you. Why would you still bring food to yourself? Are you afraid that the warriors under my command would not be full and have no strength to swing the knife? Moreover, the shamelessness of the person in front of him really made him feel disgusted. Arubu shook his head and said, "The peace talks will be left to the national teacher for full responsibility." After that, Arubu left directly and threw the place to Yuan Zhang. He seemed to feel uncomfortable every time he stayed with Chen Jing'an for an extra minute.

Arubu has left, and only Yuan Zhang and Chen Jing'an are left in the tent. Chen Jing'an quickly seized the opportunity and went up to whisper, "I hope the National Master will promote peace talks. After that, the Great Wei will definitely have a good reward." After that, he pulled out a stack of silver notes from his sleeve and handed them over. The smallest number on it was in units of tens of thousands.

Perhaps it was the role of silver bills, Yuan Zhang did not make things difficult for them this time. Moreover, Chen Jing'an was so obedient and meticulous that he really couldn't bear it, so he directly reported the conditions for peace talks, "If you want peace talks, it's okay. As long as the Wei Dynasty takes out the number we want, the army will retreat."

"It's true that sir!" Chen Jing'an seemed to notice the change in Yuan Zhang's tone and asked quickly.

"Ten million ingots of gold, 20 million ingots of silver, and 10 million pieces of silk." Yuan Zhang slowly reported this huge number. In his opinion, it was almost impossible to get so much money. He was also ready to bargain with Chen Jing'an.

"10 million ingots of gold, 20 million ingots of silver, and 10 million pieces of silk?" Chen Jing'an repeated the number and couldn't help but open his mouth wide. When he arrived, the court had already ordered him to agree to their conditions as much as possible, but he was still scared by Yuan Zhang's lion's mouth. The annual income of the Great Wei Dynasty was only 40 to 50 million taels per year, and Yuan Zhang wanted so much at once!

He now seemed to understand Yuan Zhang's intention to siege the city without attacking. Even if he captured the capital, they might not be able to plunder so much wealth!

"That's true. If you send these, we will withdraw our troops." Yuan Zhang is increasingly reluctant to attack the city too early. These officials will help him slowly weaken the resistance of the capital. Why should he waste the lives of the warriors in the Mobei region?

"This number seems to be a bit too large. It turns out that the National Master has reduced it a little." Chen Jing'an mustered up the courage and said with difficulty.

"Can you decide this?" Yuan Zhang waved his hand impatiently, "Let's go back and discuss with your empress dowager and the emperor, and then come and discuss it after the discussion is concluded."

Chen Jing'an's 10,000 stones of grain, hundreds of pigs and sheep, hundreds of baskets of vegetables, thousands of jars of fine wine, countless seasonings, and ten imperial chefs who only received less than a cup of tea were driven away by Yuan Zhang again. Before leaving, Yuan Zhang did not forget to say, "By the way, if these **** troops were attacked by the King's Army, if you give up the peace talks, then the second **** and others would directly attack the city."

"When the officials return, they will report to the court and order the troops not to move lightly." Chen Jing'an was so scared that he was so scared that he hurriedly said goodbye and walked back to the city quickly, for fear that those martial artists who did not know the overall situation would have a rash accident.

"Ten million ingots of gold, 20 million ingots of silver, and 10 million pieces of silk!" The empress dowager and civil and military officials were also knocked out by this huge number. With the wealth of the Great Wei and the prosperity of the capital, it is probably impossible to make up so much money.

"Don't this Beilu want to have a peace talk?" The empress dowager thought for a long time and only found such a reason.

"Empress Dowager, now our Great Wei is in peace talks with the tribes in Mobei. We must not call him "Northern Lie". If it is spread, it may cause trouble again." A Hanlin scholar with white hair stood up tremblingly and said.

"The boss said this very well."

"If it weren't for the elders, we would have neglected it." A sound of praise sounded from the court. After a fierce dispute, the opinions of the ministers were finally unified half an hour later, so "Northern Kingdom" became the new title of the tribes in the northern desert.

After these twists and turns, the topic turned to peace talks again. After detailed calculations, the ministers finally took out a number that David could accept, including one million ingots of gold, two million ingots of silver, and one million pieces of cloth, and ordered Chen Jing'an to discuss with Yuan Zhang tomorrow.

After Chen Jing'an came down from court, he did not go home directly, but quietly found Lu Chengqing's mansion, "Mr. Lu, then Yuan Zhang's lion's speech today is probably because he has some intentions!"

"Oh? What do you mean?" Lu Chengqing asked.

"Sir, Yuan Zhang may still remember the derogation of Yang Prime Minister to him in the palace examination that day. If this problem is not solved, the subordinates think that he will definitely not convince the Khan of the Northern Kingdom to withdraw his troops." Chen Jing'an said confidently.
