The negotiators from Dali Kingdom all looked extremely sad.

Only then did Zhang Bangchang regain his composure and said with a smile: "Yes! The entire Gao family is still in the royal city. Please send someone to arrest them immediately!"

Everyone looked at Duan Zhengxing, waiting for his reply.

Duan Zhengxing said: "Angel, I have no authority to give orders on this matter. I will ask your Majesty for your instructions."

"Okay, I'm waiting for news from His Highness over there."

Fang Zhengyan added: "Your Majesty, there is another very important matter."

"But it doesn't matter."

"We hope to expand the market for negotiation between the two countries."

"It's not a big problem. We also hope to expand business with China."

"But your country needs to accept the payment of banknotes."

"That's no problem."

Everyone was laughing at Wensong for making a fool of himself at the banquet, but they didn't know that it was Wensong who was really smart.

When the Song Dynasty envoy came, the conditions he proposed must be very difficult.

As the Minister of Rites and responsible for diplomacy, he knew that he had agreed to the Song envoy's request, and the blame would be on him afterwards.

After Duan Zhengxing returned, he told his father Duan Zhengyan about Zhang Bangchang's request.

Duan Zhengyan said: "They want to completely break up the Duan family and the Gao family."

"If the entire Gao family is handed over, Gao Liangcheng will definitely start a rebellion, and then our Dali Kingdom will be in chaos!" Duan Zhengxing said.

Gao Liangcheng is naturally not dead. Not only is he not dead, Gao Liangcheng still has an elite army from Dali Kingdom in his hands.

Gao Liangcheng was defeated by Wu Lin and after fleeing, he regrouped some of his scattered troops.

As for where he is hiding, not even Duan Zhengyan knows.

But the letter must have been sent back.

Gao Liangcheng is by no means an empty shell, and neither is the Gao family.

If they are really desperate, the Gao family will use their influence and financial resources to recruit a group of soldiers and start a fight directly.

You know, the Gao family was able to depose the Emperor of Dali back then. This was a truly powerful family.

If Duan Zhengyan really issued this order, there would definitely be civil strife.

Duan Zhengyan said: "Now we have another plan."

Duan Zhengxing looked at his father in confusion.

"Release the news that the Song Dynasty wants to capture the entire Gao family, let the people of the Gao family know, they will not sit still and wait for death, and put pressure on them."

"What about us?"

"We just have one word."

"What word?"

"Delay." Duan Zhengyan said.

"What if we drag on and the Song army comes?" Duan Zhengxing asked, "There is another Song army not far from the king. We still don't know how many troops they have."

"Of course it is better. The longer it is delayed, the better. If it is delayed for a long time, the Gao family cannot bear it anymore and recruit troops. The Song army is coming. If the two sides fight again, we will be the peacemakers."

Duan Zhengxing was stunned for a moment and said quickly: "My father is still thoughtful."

In the next period of time, Duan Zhengxing asked people to take Zhang Bangchang and Fang Zhengyan to eat, drink and have fun.

Either playing at the Erhai Lake, going to Cangshan Mountain to redress the injustice, or finding a few beautiful girls to discuss life, such a small life is quite pleasant.

Both Zhang Bangchang and Fang Zhengyan knew that Dali was playing tricks. Zhang Bangchang did not write to Fan Zongyin or Wu Lin, so they just waited, planning to wait for several months.

On the contrary, the news that the Song Dynasty envoy proposed to escort the entire Gao family spread like wildfire, causing a great sensation in Yangzui Me City.

Just as Duan Zhengyan expected, the Gao family would not sit still and wait for death. They sent people to talk to Duan Zhengyan countless times.

After Duan Zhengyan vaguely revealed the helplessness of the current situation, the Gao family immediately began to recruit soldiers privately, just in case.

However, the Song Dynasty's request to expand the market received widespread support within the Dali Kingdom.

Even the use of banknotes has received support from a considerable number of people.

Before the start of the Song-Li War, the Dali court was divided into two factions: those who opposed the handover of banknotes and those who supported the handover of banknotes.

The majority was opposed to handing over banknotes, led by the Gao family.

Some people supported the handover of banknotes, led by Duan Zhengxing.

Now, the number of people who oppose handing over banknotes to enter Dali has obviously decreased significantly.

The former opposition has become a supporter.

This undoubtedly further increases the difficulty for the Gao family.

By December of the ninth year of Jingkang, the situation in Dali State entered a period of stability.

But in fact, all parties are speculating whether this period of stability will be the calm before the storm.

As for December, the Jiangdong case has basically come to an end, the process of local criminal prosecution has been completed, the evidence listed by the Ministry of Revenue has been returned to the case, and the procedures of the Su Provincial Court have been completed.

Everyone was convicted, and the officials involved were escorted to Tokyo City to wait until Dali Temple and the Ministry of Punishment made the final decision.

On the tenth day of December, there was light snow.

"What are you doing in front? Why do so many people gather?" Zhao Ning looked over there curiously and asked.

"This area is not far from the University of Tokyo. In front of it is the lake view garden built by Wang Taiwei. It is open to the public on weekdays. It only costs 20 coins to go in and visit." Jing Chao said, "It has snowed again recently. I heard

It is said that the winter scenery in the lake-viewing garden is particularly beautiful."

"Oh, which Captain Wang?"

"He is your uncle, Mr. Guan."

Zhao Ning was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said: "I just remembered that he likes to show off. If he has a lot of money, he can't wait to tell the whole world."

Gao Qiu immediately said in Zhao Ning's ear: "I also heard that Wang Taiwei likes to compete with others for wealth. I heard that the toilets in his house are all inlaid with gold."

Zhao Ning looked at Gao Qiu with a smile and asked curiously: "Oh, have you ever gone to his house to poop?"

"I...I haven't been there, I just heard what others said."

Zhao Ning asked again: "It seems that most of the people in front are young people?"

"It seems that some of them are from the University of Tokyo." Gao Qiu rolled his eyes and said, "Master, do you want to go and have a look?"

"Do you want me to see how luxurious Wang Zonglio's garden is, or do you really want me to see what's going on?"

Being exposed on the spot by Zhao Guan's family, Gao Qiu immediately said: "Of course I really want to know what happened over there."

"Let's go and have a look." Zhao Ning was really interested.

A proud smile gradually appeared on Gao Qiu's face: Wang Zonglio, you are destined to die this time. Let the officials see your luxurious garden and see how rich you are. Our Zhao officials like rich courtiers the most!

Quack!

When Zhao Ning walked to the garden, several people came over, led by a middle-aged man with a smile on his face: "Sir, do you have an invitation?"

"You want an invitation?"

"The garden is occupied today. There is a wonderful debate going on. We cannot enter without an invitation. Please forgive me."

Zhao Ning asked: "What debate?"
Chapter completed!
