Li Yifeng did not believe that Bian Beiliu would come. When Bian Qianxun was in their hands, Bian Beiliu was afraid of the mouse. Now that the cards in their hands have been played, Bian Beiliu, who has the advantage, would not come and negotiate with them again.
He Shankuo and Chen Hutu looked at each other, and at the same time showed disappointed eyes. If Dayong relied on a minister like Li Yifeng, he might have declined irreversible.
As an envoy, Li Yifeng did not show any extraordinary things. He had no choice but to face Kitano's difficulties. If they had not joined forces to deal with it, I'm afraid that Li Yifeng would not have any results even if he stayed in Mantian City for the rest of his life.
In fact, Li Yifeng is not sure about the situation outside now. Although Chen Hutu stays with him, Chen Hutu cannot tell him the plan of Qin Lang and He Shankuo. Li Yifeng is not good enough to do anything.
Li Yifeng also saw that they must have something to hide from him, and sighed and said, "If you have anything to do, can you tell me clearly? Don't let me guess."
He Shankuo smiled and said, "Mr. Li, listen to me and start slowly."
Li Yifeng finally believed that Kitano began to show weakness, and the Kitano soldiers trapped outside the inn quietly retreated, and suddenly felt like they were guarding the clouds and saw the moon bright.
While Li Yifeng felt glad, he was a little ashamed. If these young people had not taken action to deal with Kitano, he would not have thought of any solution in the face of the situation in front of him.
The real negotiation has ended, and he is just responsible for a formality. Li Yifeng only hopes to end the quest sooner and return to Yongdu. As for whose credit is it? It doesn't matter anymore. Since being plotted by the Queen Mother Xiao Zixuan and confusedly acted as Sang Jingtian's windshield wall, Li Yifeng has been discouraged since then. If Sang Jingtian had not pushed him to this position, he would rather live in Yongdu in a daze than come to Beiye to take risks.
I once thought that this life would be left in Kitano, but I didn't expect that many days of hard work finally came to a turning point.
Li Yifeng actually saw a glimmer of hope from these young people. This trip to Kitano has verified their abilities. After returning, they will inevitably be valued by the court. It is not necessarily known that Dayong can get ZTE in their hands.
Li Yifeng was a little puzzled and said, "Nephew, why are you going to Kitano for adventure?" This matter can be said to have nothing to do with He Shankuo. He is also disabled, so why did he come to Mantian City to risk his life to help them? Could it be that He Shankuo is so loyal to Da Yong?
He Shankuo said: "If Beiye rebelled, Da Yong would be no longer far from collapse. If Da Yong died, how could he be the only one who was a citizen of Da Yong?"
Although Li Yifeng felt that it made sense, it seemed that the persuasiveness was not enough. Anyway, his son did not have this level, so it is not difficult to find the gap between his son Li Yuting and these young people. This is also the reason why his son was embarrassed at the beginning. His son and He Shanming were brothers, but now he sees He Shanming's ability is far inferior to his elder brother He Shankuo.
Li Yifeng said: "Even if Bian Beiliu is determined to rebel, it may not be able to subvert Dayong's foundation."
He Shankuo shook his head and said, "If Kitano really rebels, the court sends troops to quell the rebellion. Once the war begins, Daye and Heihu will wait for an opportunity to move. The treasury of Dayong is empty and can no longer support a protracted war."
Li Yifeng pursed his lips and nodded, whispering: "Is the ships blocking the sea outlet of Qiyungang really the ghost territory army invited by the imperial court?"
He Shankuo said: "I don't know this. After we go back, Lord Li will ask the Queen Mother to find out soon?"
A bitter smile appeared on the corner of Li Yifeng's lips, but he didn't have the courage to ask.
Bian Beiliu really came to the inn. This time he came to the inn and only brought a few warriors with him.
Seeing Li Yifeng, Bian Beiliu took the initiative to salute and said, "Mr. Li came to Beiye for inspection without hesitation. I hope he will forgive me if Bian is negligent." This sentence obviously lowered his attitude and said that Li Yifeng's mission was an inspection, which was equivalent to telling Li Yifeng tactfully that I would give face to the court and I would not rebel.
Li Yifeng said: "The prince is busy with all kinds of things and takes time to come here in his busy schedule. I am so grateful to him."
Bian Beiliu thought to himself that Li Yifeng was much tougher than before, and the meaning in his words clearly contained a condemnation for him. It was already here, and there was no need to show off: "Mr. Li might as well say it clearly."
Li Yifeng nodded and said it from beginning to end according to what He Shankuo just explained. There are several very important points. First, in order to commend Bian Beiliu for his contribution to the development of Kitano, the court repaired the mansion for Bian Family in Yongdu and rewarded Baiqing with fertile land.
The old lady of Bian was granted the first-class imperial edict and allowed her to return to Yongdu to retire and live her old age. Bian Qianxun also returned to Yongdu with the old lady. All the past crimes were eliminated, and the empress dowager would personally choose a partner for Bian Qianxun.
Bian Beiliu understood very well that this was to put all his mother and son under Yongdu's house arrest. Although he would not attack him for the time being and would not send troops to Kitano, he would definitely not continue to let him develop in the future.
Bian Beiliu has always been known as benevolence and filial piety. The reason why he was independent this time but did not choose to rebel immediately was fundamentally burdened by his reputation. If he made a quick decision to rebel independently, he might not have fallen into the passive situation in front of him.
Li Yifeng put forward another requirement that he had not originally had, that is, to increase Kitano's taxes. In fact, they have completely overturned the content of the contract they had formulated before coming to Kitano.
I remember that the strategy formulated before coming was to stabilize the situation in Kitano first. As long as Bian Beiliu stabilized Bian Beiliu and made concessions, Bian Beiliu knew about the conditions at that time, but he did not have Da Yong at all. He made up his mind to be independent and escape from Da Yong's control from then on. But now he has fallen into a passive initiative from the beginning.
Bian Beiliu suppressed his anger and smiled at Li Yifeng: "Mr. Li, it seems that your conditions are very different from before."
Li Yifeng said: "The opportunity must not be missed and never come again. Can the prince still see the current situation clearly?"
Bian Beiliu remained silent. Now that things have come to this point, all conditions must be temporarily agreed upon. He must be time.
Since the death of the young emperor, Empress Dowager Xiao Zirong finally heard good news. After hearing He Dangzhong report the latest news, she whispered: "Seriously? Are you saying that Bian Beiliu has agreed to all the conditions?"
He Dang nodded and said, "It's true that Bian Beiliu has agreed to all the conditions. Bian Qianxun and the old lady will return with the delegation soon."
Xiao Zirong breathed a sigh of relief. In this way, Kitano's crisis was resolved.
He Dangzhong said: "I have sent navy soldiers to Kitano from the sea to welcome the return of the mission, and secondly, I want to stay in Qiyungang. Controlling Qiyungang is equivalent to shaking Kitano's throat. I don't have to worry about Bian Beiliu having other ideas in the future."
Xiao Zirong sighed: "Thank you for your hard work, thanks to you this time."
He Dangzhong smiled indifferently and said, "It is not me who made great contributions to Da Yong. Qin Lang, Chen Hutu and Quanzi Shankuo, they are the key to turning the situation around."
Xiao Zirong said: "The Ai family will definitely ask Your Majesty to reward them for their merits."
After He Dangzhong left, Bai Yugong came to see Xiao Zirong excitedly. She also heard that the mission had completed the mission and came to Xiao Zirong to verify it as soon as possible.
Seeing her appearance, Xiao Zirong sighed secretly that she was concerned about it, not the mission or the future of Da Yong, but Qin Lang.
"My mother, is the mission back?"
Xiao Zirong said: "It's not that fast. Even if they set out to return now, it may be ten days."
Bai Yu Palace said a little disappointed: "So long?"
Xiao Zixuan said: "But Kitano's crisis should be resolved. This time Qin Lang made a great contribution to Dayong. How does His Majesty plan to reward him?"
Bai Yugong thought in his mind that he must take the opportunity to give Qin Lang a high-ranking official this time. I am the emperor of Da Yong, so naturally I must have the final say.
When Xiao Zirong saw his daughter's expression, he had already guessed her thoughts in his heart and said deliberately: "How about calling him as his son-in-law?"
The Baiyu Palace rarely showed a shy expression: "Mother, what did you say?" His pretty face was already red with shame.
Xiao Zixuan said: "Dayong has never had a precedent for the empress. If he marrys you, he will be the king of Zhong. Of course, it depends on your meaning. Are you willing?"
Bai Yugong had a thousand willings and ten thousand willings in his heart. Although she was open-minded, if she asked her to say it directly, she would find it difficult to speak out. She dared not look directly at Xiao Zixuan, and looked outside and said, "I don't know what he is thinking." She already understood the meaning again, but as long as Qin Lang was willing to marry her, she naturally would have no problem.
Xiao Zirong sighed secretly that his daughter was too unconscious in terms of love and was obsessed with falling in love with someone. In fact, this is the case with me. But I met Sang Jingtian and I just hope that she did not read the wrong person.
Xiao Zirong asked her daughter to go to Qinzheng Hall to review memorials, and she could not do some things for her. Xiao Zirong understood in her heart that her daughter was not the right person for the throne. If she wanted to sit firmly in the court, she had to help her form a team to assist her. Because this time when dealing with Kitano's affairs, she was more and more wary of Sang Jingtian. Sang Jingtian was too selfish. At that time, he could abandon himself for fame, but now he might not have given up his biological daughter.
At this time, the eunuch came to report that Lu Xingqiao came to ask for a meeting. Xiao Zirong was full of fear of this person. He didn't want to see him, but he didn't dare to see him. He asked someone to invite Lu Xingqiao in and shut him away.
Lu Xingqiao bowed and said, "I am here to see the Queen Mother."
Xiao Zirong said: "There is no one here, and Lu Qing does not need a big gift."
Lu Xingqiao said: "Did the Empress Dowager hear about Kitano's incident?"
Xiao Zirong said: "The Kitano crisis has been resolved. The Grand Marshal has just told the Ai family."
