If Xiao Ruxue went to the battlefield, the wise king would have to chase him, but Xu Qing did not dare to let the little girl follow him.
In the evening, Long Bing'er did not go to the mission's residence but stayed in the small courtyard that belonged to her in the Anding Marquis Mansion. Next door was Li Mingyue's small courtyard, and next door was Xiao Ruxue's.
Long Bing'er slept peacefully at night, but Prince Huai in the delegation's residence was not calm.
As a deputy envoy, he didn't go to the Cleansing Banquet, and even though the capital city was under curfew, he didn't come back.
How is this appropriate?
Lu Heng, who was next to King Huai, was very calm: "Your Highness, don't worry, the wife of the Marquis of Anding County is very skilled in martial arts, Deputy Dragon Commander can get a lot of improvement every time she fights with her, just like the original General Long, sometimes she can
The fight lasted from morning to afternoon. This time Deputy Long came for him in the afternoon, so it is normal for him to fight until evening. If we don’t fight, we won’t know each other.”
Lu Heng had long been used to it. Sometimes he would go to fights in black clothes and come back in white clothes. What was a night out?
Over the years, they have been doing business with the Chu State's GuoShang Yuan. The Lu family has long been close to the GuoShang Yuan. Xu Qing is the dean of the GuoShang Yuan. He is eager for this deputy envoy to chat with Xu Qing from morning to night.
In this way, as an envoy, he can get some light.
Last time, Chu State begged them, Zhao State, not to form an alliance with Zhou State. But it was different now. Now it was Zhao State who asked Chu State for help. The situation was changing, and it was impossible not to accept it.
It wasn't until the next morning that Long Bing'er, dressed in black, returned to the mission's residence.
When King Huai saw Long Bing'er coming back, he stepped forward and was about to say hello when Long Bing'er said: "Inform the envoy that we can start negotiations with the Chu State at Honglu Temple this afternoon. The Chu State will send troops this time.
"
Song Jingcheng said: "Bing'er, why did you not come back all night? I and the envoy are both very worried."
Long Bing'er said calmly: "Your Highness King Huai, our captain is a military commander. Please call His Highness King Huai on his duties. Yesterday I just forgot the time because I was in the middle of the fight."
After saying that, Long Bing'er walked towards his residence.
Song Jingcheng felt a little bit angry when he saw Long Bing'er's attitude of rejecting people thousands of miles away. As a prince, there was no woman in the world who wouldn't want to climb into his bed, but Long Bing'er actually didn't take him seriously.
thing!
Song Jingcheng's accompanying counselor came over and said, "Your Highness King Huai, please calm down. Behind Deputy Commander Long is General Long. As the daughter of the leading general, Commander Long should not be close to any prince."
Song Jingcheng snorted coldly: "She stayed in the Anding Marquis Mansion all night and didn't even go to the dust-cleansing banquet... Who knows what method she used to get Xu Qing to agree to negotiate immediately!"
The counselor said: "General Long's family are all loyal and loyal, and naturally they are devoted to the Zhao Kingdom. If His Highness wants to ascend the throne of the East Palace, he must not spend so much time on a gentleman like this."
Song Jingcheng glanced at the counselor: "Are you saying that this king is a villain?"
The counselor immediately shook his head and said: "My subordinates dare not..."
After Long Bing'er came back, she entered the room, stretched out and simply tidied up her residence in the mission.
It was indeed a bit late to play with Ning'er yesterday.
She also didn't expect that this soft and white guy would feel so good.
But it's a pity that this little guy doesn't want to be hugged. Every time he hugs him, his big black eyes will start to circle, and he seems to cry at any time, with an unhappy look on his face.
This made Long Binger quite regretful.
And I don’t know why, when this little guy is not happy, he reaches out to Xuan’er with all his strength. He has never looked for Sister Su when Xuan’er is present.
Long Bing'er now has some doubts about who Ning'er's biological mother is.
But then Xu Qing, a shameless bad guy, actually said that he was willing to hold her instead of Ning'er. I really don't know how Sister Su lived with such a shameless guy for so long.
Instead of Ning'er...he's so beautiful!
However, even in the Anding Marquis Mansion, Long Bing'er was not relaxed. She was no longer as carefree as last time and could compete with Sister Su and eat smoothies as much as she wanted.
Even when they were on the road, they would receive letters from the court every few days. The danger at the border was already quite serious, and the envoys had to persuade the Chu State to send troops as soon as possible.
But at the same time, Zhao State refused to withdraw the elite Zhenxi Army that was encircling King Ming.
The most elite troops were used to annihilate King Ming at all times, but the most scattered troops were used to resist the attack of Shezhao.
He said all kinds of nice things to Shezhao Kingdom in an almost pleading tone, but he did everything he could to King Ming.
Could it be that the troubles of the King of Ming could outweigh the troubles of the imperial edict?
Long Bing'er also hated the fact that iron could not become steel but had no choice but to do anything about it. She was just a general, not a king.
If the emperor of their Zhao State had the same broad-mindedness and foresight as the Emperor of Chu, Zhao State would not have fallen to this level.
Now Zhao has finally reaped the consequences. Shezhao has successively broken through the two lines of defense of the Zhenxi Army. Even General Long, who is an expert in using troops, can't resist Shezhao when all the elite of the Zhenxi Army have been transferred.
offensive.
Xu Qing also understands that the situation is dangerous, so except for the dust-cleansing banquet, Xu Qing has omitted a series of polite arrangements and goes straight to the point.
However, no matter how fast he negotiates, it will be useless. It will take some time for the army's equipment and baggage to be ready.
Long Bing'er just packed up her things and left quickly, without staying too much at the mission.
It seems that he is going to harm Ning'er again.
Negotiations started on time in the afternoon
Lu Heng naturally explained the dilemma of Zhao State to Xu Qing, and took out the agreement signed between Zhao State and Chu State. When Zhao State was invaded by an enemy country, Chu State would provide free military assistance to Zhao State.
.
King Ming was in civil strife, but this time She Zhao was not in civil strife, right?
Lu Hengyi asked Chu State to fulfill its obligations.
Xu Qing, who was sitting in the envoy's seat, looked at Lu Heng across from him and said, "Don't worry, our country, Chu. We always keep our word, but it's not that we, the country of Chu, don't send troops. It's really a matter of military expenditure..."
Lu Heng frowned and said: "The original contract clearly stated that troops would be sent for free! Now when it comes to military expenses, is your country trying to raise the price?"
Xu Qing quickly shook his head and said, "It's just a misunderstanding. Our country of Chu has always treated people with integrity. How could we do such a thing?"
Xu Qing sighed and said sadly: "I, the State of Chu, don't want to do it either, but you want to know that our State of Chu has been fighting continuously for two years. After conquering the Kingdom of Zhou and clearing the grasslands, we have already drained the last bit of savings from the national treasury."
, and even borrowed a large amount of money from wealthy businessmen to barely keep the court running. It is really impossible to raise military expenses! This time, even if our country of Chu borrows your country’s military expenses, we will pay it back as soon as the state treasury improves.
."
"I borrowed your country's money to solve your country's problems, and you made a profit."
