The astronomical tides covered the middle and lower reaches of the Qianjing River, the magnetic field was chaotic, and the ground network did not spread to central Hunan. The reports of the two navies were delayed for some time on the way.

It wasn't until early in the morning that the news reached the vicinity of Fengliang City.

On the morning of the third day, the sky was stormy and dark. Just as Ye Qing and Prince Qing were continuing their meeting on the boat to exchange some detailed preparations for the handover, the magician hurried in and handed over a report on the matter.

Because it was a handover, many people from the three families were involved in the process, mainly the ministers, and the several princes were idle. As soon as this report appeared, it attracted the attention of several people.

It was the first to be handed over to Ye Qing. Obviously due to the network in northern Hunan, the efficiency of the Hanhou Mansion was better than half a chip at this moment.

"The incident at Junling Port in Xiangbei...last night?"

Ye Qing narrowed his eyes and did not ask angrily. He just raised his head and looked at Prince Qing across from him, as if judging the possibility of Cai Chao causing this incident, and then passed the report calmly: "Everyone, you might as well come and take a look.

.”

Prince Qing's seat was closer to the guest seat. He took it and browsed it. He glanced at it and frowned: "We definitely did not order this."

What happened?

Hong Xiao deliberately sat the farthest away from Ye Qing. At this time, he blinked and pricked up his ears to listen. However, Ye Qing glanced at Prince Qing slightly and did not respond to Prince Qing's defense. After that, no one said anything.

In an atmosphere of silence, this report was passed from one person to another, and the shocking news of the incident spread, breaking the atmosphere in the conference room with a "boom" in a gesture that was unexpected by everyone.

"Shooting warships to ram our civilian ships...is this the sincerity of your court?" Guan Yu sneered. If he is not of my race, his heart must be different. These barbarians must be untrustworthy.

On the side of Prince Qing, a general's face turned red: "What are you talking about? It might just be a channel accident. The matter hasn't been clarified yet..."

"Isn't it clear enough that I crushed three ships? Is it clear enough that I stabbed you with three spears?" Zhang Fei shouted, stood up, and stared.

Ye Qing waved his hand to ask the third brother to calm down without further stopping him.

"It was just an accident on our side. Even if it was a collision, it was just a collision with some civilians. How could you brazenly bombard the imperial warship? Is it possible that you want to rebel?"

As soon as these words were said, the atmosphere in the venue was like being ignited by a spark, and it broke out on the spot. People from both sides were scolding and accusing each other.

It was soon apparent that Zhuge Liang had the upper hand with his eloquence. In addition to his IQ and logic, Ye Qing felt that his voice was clear and penetrating. His extremely fast speaking speed also ensured clarity and emphasis, which was really admirable.

.

In the end, it was probably because my throat was a little worn out for a long time, and the conference room gradually became colder.

The palace servants brought tea to everyone, and also sent their own information. Prince Qing looked at it, with a dark face, and pointed to the core: "What does the Marquis of Han think of this matter?"

"Let's talk about the matter, at this point in time...the peace treaty has been confirmed, why is there still such a move?"

Ye Qing's voice was calm, but the source of his words was unquestionable: "I think you have to give my people an explanation regarding this matter."

An explanation, so unruly... And when did Xiangzhou become yours?

The Prince of Qing County was furious and said gloomily: "Even if we hit a civilian ship due to the narrow waterway, it was just an accident. The nature of bombarding the imperial warship is completely different. For the sake of the overall situation, we have suppressed this matter and

If you don't say anything, the Marquis of Han should not push your limits."

The people behind all nodded in agreement.

The Prince of Qing County continued: "The Marquis of Han will go back and have a rest. I will come to visit again when the detailed results come out... Before the imperial edict is issued, there will be a conclusion no matter what, don't you think so?"

Ye Qing nodded slightly and looked at the woman opposite: "What do Madam Xianghou think?"

Hong Xiao secretly sighed. She was deeply influenced by the words and deeds of her father, Earth Fairy. She was not a young lady who was ignorant of politics, so she was not surprised by this incident.

She was not surprised that Ye Qing took the opportunity to raise the price.

It is estimated that Cai Chao will add an additional clause to compensate Ye Qing in the future. This is a normal exchange of interests. Cai Chao's current actions are all for the sake of the overall situation, and he will not hesitate to compromise on details.

It is precisely this that makes this "channel accident" in Junlin Port unusual. No matter how ruthless the prince of Qing Dynasty is, he will always worry about his score in the court and his image in Xiangzhou, especially in this kind of competition between the three families.

At that time, the massacre of the people was really a failure that greatly failed to win the hearts of the people.

But this was not her business. She just smiled and said: "Shonan has no objections. I think this matter will not affect the established treaty between the three of us. It is just a physical obstacle. I have to send someone to Junlin Port to investigate. This delay will

The Marquis of Han will inevitably have to stay on the ship for a few more nights, you have nothing urgent to do, right?"

"It's okay. The scenery on this boat is quite beautiful. The reception by the prince is... considerate and thoughtful. I still like it very much." Ye Qing softened his tone and carefully selected his words.

Although he felt a little unhappy, he actually felt that neither the Cai Dynasty nor the Qing princes were likely to do this.

Although the King of Qing County was concerned about the interests of northern Hunan, he still hoped to reach peace in the overall negotiation. He stood up and said to Ye Qing: "If the Marquis of Han trusts you, please give us a few days to investigate... The Marquis of Han has been playing these days.

of pleasure.”

It was rare that I even shook hands.

Spreading the palms of each other's hands to show that there are no stones, daggers... small weapons that can hurt people is a tradition that existed in ancient mankind. It has further naturally evolved into the etiquette of holding hands together, which is similar in humane civilizations.

At this time, the two of them shook it hard and smiled harmoniously.

All that is missing is a photo - or it could be said that the artist took the crystal photography, but it is estimated that after the decree is issued and the validity is officially confirmed by the notarization of the heaven, such an image will really have to be taken and published in the respective official newspapers for publicity and shock.

Other forces.

Judging from the atmosphere in the conference room, both sides are really friendly and harmonious, and no one thinks that there will be any unpleasant actions between them.

However, the blood of tens of thousands has not dissipated yet.

This is the reality of power. Even if the fight below is bloody, it does not mean that the blood can disturb Long Qi - as long as the benefits of peace are assessed based on the overall strategic gains and losses, it is better than making a big deal. The top leaders of the two parties,

They will all suppress it tacitly.

One party will hand over the perpetrator as a sacrificial pawn to prevent the situation from escalating into rupture and war.

This kind of strategic stability is a sign of a mature political system. This is true for both the Cai Dynasty and the New Han Dynasty, both of which were cautious about starting wars.

It will not lead the dragon's energy by suppressing it from below.

However, as soon as he returned to his room, Ye Qing's face turned pale and he said to the girl Jianxiu who had been following him: "Lingling, you can use your sword to investigate Junlin Port."

"Yes, Young Master." Zhou Ling sat down cross-legged in the room, not worrying about her physical safety. She raised her natal sword type, and a sword light passed through the ship's array, went north, and disappeared from everyone's sight.

.

When Prince Qing saw this scene, he glanced slightly and said nothing. This was Ye Qing's urging gesture. He could only pretend that he had not seen it, but he could not prevent others from learning the truth.

And to be honest, Prince Qing didn't think this was a big deal.

"According to preliminary information, it was a reckless captain, but this man is already dead."

"The most I can do is scold the commander of this sub-ship and demote him to the second level. There is no need to hand him over. The whole ship has sunk and the captain who caused the trouble is dead. What else do you want?"

Prince Qing had already made up his mind and went back to his room or left early today. Once again he found that Ning Juan had not come back yet, so he asked the maids from the Shui Tribe who were accompanying him: "Where is the princess?"

The maid of the Shui Tribe knew that he was very angry recently and did not dare to hide it. She said bravely: "Princess, the princess went to see Mrs. Hanhou again, or she lost track of time while reminiscing about old friendship. If there is something urgent, why don't you let us go there to rush you?"

one time?"

"What old friendship do they have?"

Prince Qing laughed. Since Ning Juan confessed her conflict with Jing Yu and Hen Yun, he despised things between women - if it were him, how could the conflict become apparent and alert the enemy?

No matter how powerful a woman is in cultivation, she still has a limited vision and is only making small fuss, and her role in hegemony is limited.

Looking at the location of the Dragon Girl's room on the top, all I could see was the ceiling. The dark green magic circle patterns shielded my consciousness. It was also two floors away, so I couldn't see anything.

The new warship defense mechanism is a bit too comprehensive. Unless the internal emergency defense inspection is enabled, this will cause a lot of noise. It is suspected of snooping, and the impact is really not significant.

This made the prince, who was accustomed to controlling everything, a little dissatisfied. Although he asked his wife to restrain the female family members on the other side, and nothing would happen on his ship, he was always missing, and an inexplicable uncomfortable feeling came to his mind again...

...They are both Hunan girls, but they are not as caring as their mother and concubine, and the gap has become increasingly apparent after their wedding.

"No need to rush, let her come to see me when she comes back."

Things were complicated at the moment, and another trouble broke out in northern Hunan. Prince Qing didn't care about such trivial matters as women. He only said to the real person Jiayang who followed him: "You should go over immediately and investigate the channel accident in Junlin Port. If it turns out to be what I thought."

It’s almost the same, then just use the King’s Ming Flag to deal with it.”

Although he has become a vassal, he is still the king of the county, so it is not too much to deal with it in this way.

"The prince's defense?"

"The terms have been decided, there will be no problems, and Duke Guang is actually still nearby, so I will be fine. It's up to you to bring a few more people with you to prevent the swordsman from Ye Qing's sect from playing tricks."

Master Jiayang knew how terrifying sword cultivators at the same level were, so he just bowed and said, "I obey."

As soon as he went out, Prince Qing called some people to try to get the benefits of the three counties in northern Hunan. They were all at a loss. They frowned and looked at the middle-aged naval general in the corner: "What do you think, Admiral Sun?"

It was rare for newcomer Sun Xinbo to attend the meeting. In fact, he really didn't want to speak. When his name was called, he could only complain secretly and said cautiously: "I'm afraid it's very difficult now... Unless Ye Qing wants too much compensation, but both sides have their intentions set, and no one can

I don’t want to create more branches.”

"Are you saying that this king has many affairs?" Prince Qing glanced at him.

Sun Xinbo burst into a cold sweat: "I don't dare to lower my rank... Of course, if the imperial court can put more pressure, the Marquis of Han may give in, and we can use the imperial court to raise the issue of the three counties in northern Hunan again.

Several people secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Finally, an unlucky guy told the truth. Everyone could see that the lord was unwilling to lose the three counties of Xiangbei, but the negotiation was nothing more than strength. With only one county in Fengliang City, how could he compete with the nine counties of Hanhou Yingzhou and Xiangbei?

Three counties, three counties in central Hunan are compared?
