As a condition of the contract, the Tang Dynasty promised not to attack the Yu court again, and the two dynasties returned to friendship.
"We are happy to see the friendship between the two Koreas, but your army seems to be still pursuing our army fiercely. Should your army stop attacking to show your sincerity?" the envoy of the Tang Army said with arrogance.
The officials of Dayu Honglu Temple were frightened and said quickly: "Those are rebels and have been designated as traitors by the emperor. Friends, please rest assured that we will deal with this group of people."
The location for the alliance between the two dynasties was chosen in a palace within the imperial palace.
Except for Zhao Yuanyan's cronies who were full of hope for peace, countless officials stood behind him and remained silent.
They looked at the many terms in the contract, and a flash of anger flashed in everyone's eyes. These people stood there, but many of them clenched their fists tightly.
This is a shame!
As a victorious country, the Yu court had to bow to the Tang Dynasty at the negotiation table.
The envoy of the Tang Dynasty stood up, with a flash of contempt in his eyes: "As soon as possible, our reinforcements from the Tang Army are already on the way. Although the contract is finalized, if this group of people continues to fight like this, I can't guarantee what I will do with the reinforcements."
It’s time to get to the front line.”
Several officials in charge of the negotiations suddenly showed panic expressions on their faces.
"Don't worry, we will definitely order the rebels to stop their actions." The leader of the Honglu Temple said seriously, patting his chest.
The envoy from the Tang Dynasty left with satisfaction, and Honglu Temple quickly reported the results of the contract signing to the palace.
At this moment, Zhao Yuanyan's angry roar came from the palace.
"Lu Yu! I will cut you into pieces!" Zhao Yuanyan was like a furious beast, walking back and forth in the palace.
There was still a pool of blood on the palace floor. An unlucky eunuch was accidentally beaten to death by Zhao Yuanyan, and his body had been dragged out.
Many palace servants guarded the palace tremblingly, not daring to provoke the furious emperor.
"Your Majesty, Mr. Xu and Academician Huang have arrived." A eunuch from outside said.
"Let the two of them come in." The emperor's voice came out.
Xu Tiangang and Huang Zicheng walked in from outside. At this moment, their identities were extraordinary.
As the emperor's cronies, especially the masterminds of the plan to consolidate military power, the two men rose to prominence and had already entered the cabinet. They went in and out of the palace every day to talk and answer questions with the emperor.
The atmosphere today was quite solemn. As soon as the two of them walked in, they saw Jiang Junchen, the chief of the Supervisor of Ceremonies, standing aside and winking at the two of them.
The emperor was curled up on the large dragon chair. The candlelight was dim, and only the nine-clawed dragon pattern on the dragon robe flashed away.
"Kowtow to the Emperor." The two of them knelt on the ground.
Zhao Yuanyan looked at Huang Zicheng with cold eyes: "Xueshi Huang, have you read the information? I personally sent the eunuch to give him a gold medal to teach him, but he actually supported his own troops and killed all the people I sent. What do you think?
Say, does he still have me in his eyes?"
Huang Zicheng and Xu Tiangang looked at each other, but they were not in a hurry to speak.
Jiang Junchen on the side understood it, waved his hand and said: "You all get out."
The waiting maids and eunuchs immediately filed out and closed the palace door.
Suddenly, only a few Zhao Yuanyan and his ministers were left in the empty hall.
Huang Zicheng stepped forward and said: "Your Majesty, in fact, I have already anticipated this. Lu Yu's Qianlong Army was cultivated by him. No matter what, it is impossible for him to hand over the military power."
