The tone and argument were still the same, but it was different from the previous time. Although they showed toughness and expressed their determination not to give in, there was already room for negotiation.
Fang Jun, who was drinking tea and crossing his legs, suddenly put the tea cup on the table and interjected: "Since we can't reach a stalemate, why waste your efforts? Spring is approaching, the earth is steaming, and it is easy to get angry. You might as well go back and drink more to relieve the internal heat.
The tea you drink can also strengthen your body and prolong your life... Let’s go away and go back to our homes to find our own comfort.”
Everyone in the hall was stunned.
We all know that you don't agree with the peace talks, but you are encouraging everyone to break up just after they have begun. Isn't this too much?
Xiao Yu was so angry that his face was livid. He was holding back his anger, but he couldn't speak freely.
Is it possible that he can still scold Fang Jun and demand that the peace talks continue? If so, his side will lose all momentum and his intention to fight for peace talks will be obvious. He will definitely fall behind and be suppressed by the Guanlong side.
I was so angry that I wished I could kick this mallet out the door...
Isn’t this intentional to cause trouble? It’s just making trouble!
Xiao Yu ignored Fang Jun, he was just here to cause trouble. The more he ignored him, the more he became more and more enthusiastic. He said to Yu Wenshi in a deep voice: "Right now, there is a fierce battle in the Taiji Palace, and both sides have suffered heavy casualties. They are all soldiers of the Tang Dynasty and citizens of the empire.
, did not die on the battlefield and stained the border with blood, but to die in such internal fighting is extremely unwise and heartbreaking. Presumably, in a few years, today's battle will be widely spread, and will be reviled by future generations. We will all be in infamy for thousands of years!
"
Yuwen Shihe was silent, while Linghu Defen, who rarely spoke at the side, nodded and said: "That's right! In any case, the death of so many Erlangs in this war is a loss for the empire, and it is our fault!
Now that both sides are interested in peace talks and minimizing bloodshed, they might as well sign an intention to suspend the war and make adjustments later depending on the progress of the peace talks."
Ever since Wu Meiniang gave her a "face full of peach blossoms", and the reputation she had cultivated all her life was gone, Linghu Defen lurked in the mansion and devoted himself to writing books. However, it seemed that he suddenly had an enlightenment, and his temperament changed drastically.
The irritability in the first half of my life was put aside, and I became calm and serious. I devoted myself to studying, put aside all power, fame and wealth, and my life suddenly became clear.
Suddenly evolved...
Many people who were disdainful of his character admired him more and more. Now he has become a world-famous scholar. He participated in the compilation of "Historical Records of the Five Dynasties" and other books, and his literary reputation is spread all over the world.
After hearing Linghu Defen's words, Yu Wenshiji thought for a moment and nodded in approval.
No matter what the final outcome of the peace talks between the two sides is, a truce is the right thing to do now. Otherwise, it would be extremely difficult to negotiate a Ziwu Maoyou while fighting at the same time.
Xiao Yu put his hands on his hands and said with a smile: "That's exactly what it should be!"
At present, all the forces promoting the peace talks in the East Palace, Guanlong and Guanlong have a common understanding: only if the peace talks are successful can they gain benefits from it.
Therefore, they are very enthusiastic about the peace talks and are ready to overcome all difficulties and persist to the end. Otherwise, Fang Jun's messy behavior just now will be enough to temporarily terminate the negotiations. Now both sides have put Fang Jun aside, and any trouble will be
Turn a blind eye.
Fang Jun was holding a teacup at the side and sneered silently.
Soon, the two sides reached an agreement on the war and ceasefire, and signed a document, making the first phase of the peace talks a perfect conclusion.
Of course, this is not only a situation that all parties who are eager to promote negotiations want to see, but also hard-liners such as Changsun Wuji and Fang Jun who are very resistant to peace talks. It is also good news. The fierce battle in Taiji Palace will affect the strength of both sides.
The losses were huge, and the armies on both sides were somewhat war-weary, resulting in low morale. If this kind of fierce battle with heavy casualties continued, it was difficult to predict what the outcome would be.
Maybe at some point one of them will be unable to hold on, and their morale will collapse, causing the army to mutiny, and then be completely defeated...
With the buffer of the armistice, Donggong can wait for the Anxi Army to rush to reinforce, while Guanlong can also wait calmly for the reinforcements from the world's elite to enter Chang'an one after another to strengthen their strength. The rest is to see who can arrive faster and complete the task.
Suppressing the opponent's troops greatly increases the probability of victory.
Of course, there is the most important point.
Li Ji led hundreds of thousands of troops and set off from Luoyang to Tongguan. Even if the journey was slower, it would be enough to reach Guanzhong in one month. By that time, Li Ji would have to express his inclinations. From the East Palace to Guanlong
Choose one of them and support it. That is the time to put an end to the chaos in Chang'an.
Therefore, at this time, no one is willing to continue the meaningless fierce battle with huge expenditure. They might as well converge with each other, reorganize their troops, wait for Li Ji to come up with the final answer, and then deal with it.
If the two sides can really reach peace talks and eliminate this mutiny, then Li Ji's position is not important, because by then Donggong will have reached a reconciliation with Guanlong, and Li Ji will have no choice but to submit to Donggong, otherwise he will raise an army
Rebellious and rebellious ministers and traitors.
Even if Li Ji dares to do that, the hundreds of thousands of troops under his command will inevitably fall apart, and then the entire empire will be involved in the flames of war...
…
After a morning of consultations and negotiations, the two sides reached an agreement: a temporary ceasefire.
Negotiation is like this. It requires repeated seesawing and consultation, and then adjusting one's own goals according to the changing situation, guessing the other party's bottom line and testing.
At noon, the negotiation came to an end. Xiao Yu hospitably invited Scholar Yu and Linghu Defen to stay for a banquet, but they refused.
Yu Wenshi said: "Now that the armistice agreement has been reached, I will rush back to discuss with Duke Zhao to restrain the troops under my command and adjust the defenses to prevent the troops from acting without authorization, causing friction between the two sides, and then destroying this misunderstanding.
An armistice contract."
In fact, he was rushing back to Yanshoufang to inform Changsun Wuji of the agreement reached here, and then joined forces with the Guanlong family to warn Changsun Wuji not to go his own way and break the armistice contract on his own initiative. Once the army suddenly launched
Attack, the East Palace's trust in Guan Long will immediately collapse, causing the peace talks to be cast into a haze, which is something the Guan Long clan is absolutely unwilling to see.
Xiao Yu naturally knew this well, and looked at Fang Jun who had already stood up and walked out, nodded and said: "That's very good, you and I must act with caution."
He also had to go back and ask Li Chengqian to restrain Fang Jun to prevent this guy from being a fool and secretly mobilizing troops outside Xuanwu Gate to brazenly attack Guanlong and wantonly destroy the current peace talks...
The two of them looked at each other in tacit understanding. Xiao Yu sent Yu Wenshi and Linghu Defen and his entourage away. Then he hurried to the prince's residence without even bothering to eat. After making the announcement, he entered the door and saw Fang Junzheng accompanying him.
Li Chengqian enjoyed lunch.
Xiao Yu is very afraid of Fang Jun, not only because of his outstanding ability, but also because of the prince's unreserved trust in him. If the prince is bewitched by him and agrees to his statement that "the interests on the negotiating table are determined by the victory of the army,
The theory of "fighting for it" will almost certainly allow him to launch a surprise attack on the Guanlong army again.
This is absolutely unacceptable. Once such a situation occurs, the peace talks will be completely dominated by the military. If the talks are successful, the military will acquiesce. If the talks are not good, they will launch attacks wantonly to gain an advantage. Then why use them?
?
At that time, all the benefits will go to the military, but Xiao Yu will have to bear the consequences...
When Li Chengqian saw Xiao Yu coming forward to salute, he waved his hand casually and said with a smile: "Dong Guo of Song came just in time. Some vegetables were sent from outside the city today. When spring comes at the end of winter, it's just in time to have a taste."
Now that the Guanlong army has rebelled, it has long cut off the eastward area of Chang'an City. The countless greenhouses located in Lishan have naturally fallen into the hands of the rebels, making it difficult for the East Palace to eat fresh vegetables. Occasionally, even if you get some,
Noble figures such as Prince Li Chengqian cherished it and valued it.
Xiao Yu cleaned her hands and sat down under Li Chengqian, facing Fang Jun. When the waiter arranged the bowls and chopsticks for him, he smiled and said: "If the quantity is good, I can give some to a few princesses. After all, they are golden branches and jade leaves, and they have been dressed in jade since childhood.
"Eating, I have been living in the inner sect for this period of time, and I have really been wronged. Especially since His Highness Changle and His Highness Jinyang are both His Majesty's legitimate daughters, and their diet is sometimes even the same as that of their maids, which makes this veteran feel sad."
When the war broke out, various places were in chaos and supplies were in short supply. Even the East Palace was deeply affected.
Li Chengqian glanced at Fang Jun, who was lowering his head to eat. He thought, "Do you need Xiao Yu to remind you? This vegetable was brought in from Xuanwu Gate. It must have passed through Fang Jun's hands first. With this guy's virtue, even if he is alone,
There aren't even any vegetable stems here, so they must be sent to Changle and Jinyang first...
