Chapter 345: Feeling upset, second brother teaches me
"Hahaha!" Xin Qiji's words made Shen Tang couldn't help but laugh, "Second brother, everyone, why should you doubt it? If Mr. Li can draft the terms today, the Golden Emperor can issue an imperial decree tomorrow!"
Xin Qiji smiled bitterly, "Brother, it's not that we doubt it, but it's really unbelievable. In other words, it's unbelievable! Between our two countries, we, the Song Dynasty, have always ceded territory and paid indemnity and increased the annual currency. Isn't it the same in every peace negotiation? So. But now, it's completely the other way around, which is hard for us to accept..."
"Second brother, gentlemen! There is no need to be surprised. I believe that with people like us here, our Song Dynasty will become more and more powerful, and there will be more and more situations like this! One day, we will get used to it!"
"Get used to it!" Li Duo's eyes almost filled with tears. "If we can really get used to it, then I, Li Duo, will die with no regrets! And we, too, have benefited from your honor, because we are following Shen Sir, you have become the initiator of this habit! Although we are not able to help, it is our honor to witness it with our own eyes. Everyone, maybe we will leave our names in history because of this..."
Leaving a name in history is probably the most attractive thing for a literati.
Chinese literati, no matter whether they are loyal or traitorous, good or bad, there are very few people who are afraid of death! However, a name left in history can make them regardless of anything!
"Everyone, there is a third one!"
Shen Tang's words attracted everyone's attention.
"Suzhou, Lingbi, and Hongxian will be repaired and temporarily stationed by our soldiers from the Song Dynasty later! However, Pizhou is going to let the Jin soldiers from the Jin Kingdom be stationed."
As soon as these words came out, everyone no longer knew what to say! Although it was only the land of three cities, it also represented the changes in the territory of the Song Dynasty! Although it was not an achievement of opening up the territory, it was a genuine takeback of the homeland. Although, the wording doesn’t say that!
I don't know how long it took, but everyone finally woke up from the shock.
"When the peace talks are signed, our Song army will withdraw from Pizhou and return to Lingbi, just south of Hong County. Moreover, some of the hundreds of thousands of troops on the border will also be sent back. Otherwise, the Jin Kingdom will probably not feel at ease. In addition, Apart from that, there are no other conditions!”
"Originally, this can be regarded as a happy event. We should have a good time and drink. However, the matter is urgent, so I will trouble Mr. Li to write down these things as soon as possible, and try to have Pu Sanzhuo submit it to His Majesty the Emperor of Jin tomorrow. Wait until next time. After the decree, we will spread the peace talks back to the country as soon as possible, so that we can feel completely at ease!"
"Don't worry, Mr. Shen, you have already done what you need to do. If we trouble you more about writing, we will have no shame! Now we will go back, draw it up immediately, and give it to you for review..."
Then, Li Duo and others were not in the mood to stay any longer, so they said goodbye to Shen Tang and Xin Qiji and hurried back to the house.
After everyone left, Xin Qiji patted Shen Tang hard on the shoulder, "Brother Xian, well done. Of the three brothers, you are indeed the most promising! This time, brother Xian, your name will definitely spread throughout the world. Great Song Dynasty."
"However, dear brother, the Jin Kingdom has always been tyrannical, how could it agree to these harsh conditions? I think even if Prime Minister Zhang or even His Majesty the Emperor comes in person, it will be difficult for the Emperor of the Jin Kingdom to agree." Xin Qiji looked puzzled. He said, suddenly, a strange smile appeared on his face, "Brother Xian, could it be that you used a beauty trick?"
"Brother, why do you need to mock your younger brother?" Shen Tang said speechlessly.
"Hehe, do you still want to hide it from your second brother?" Even the princes and princesses cannot compare to the emperor's favor. What kind of beauty trick is this that my dear brother doesn't use?"
"Why!"
Xin Qiji's words made Shen Tang sigh softly, with a hint of sadness on his face, "Brother, I am from the Song Dynasty, and she is the princess of the Jin Kingdom! We are destined to be people from two worlds, why should brother make fun of me again."
Hearing Shen Tang's words, Xin Qiji opened his eyes wide, "Brother Xian, are you depressed because of this? Don't you realize that the princess has a deep love for you? The way she looked at you was different from the way she looked at you. Mu Yu's sister-in-law was exactly the same back then, how could she be able to fake it?"
"Brother, I am not an idiot, how can I not know. But, so what if I know, and what if I don't know? It just adds to the sorrow! I wanted to be cruel and make her give up, but every time I see the look in her eyes, But I backed down again, because I really couldn't bear to make her sad. However, there will always be a day when we say goodbye. Brother, I am just taking one step at a time and don't dare to think about the future!"
"you……"
Xin Qiji pointed at Shen Tang speechlessly, "Xian brother, this is the first time that my second brother knows that you are actually a stick! A princess who is favored by the emperor is not afraid of rumors, and even causes quarrels with her father, but it is for the sake of someone who has been worried for dozens of days. Taking care of her by your side, you still want to make her give up? If you weren't injured now, even if I were your brother, I would still have to teach you a lesson."
"What you are worried about is just the identities of both parties. However, do you think there is anything special about your identities? Or do you think that the relationship between the two countries will change because of you two? It's not that my brother is attacking you. You really think too highly of you. If you like her, then marry her directly! If not, brother, I have thousands of soldiers and horses outside Zhongdu. I have to snatch such a woman back directly. You are still thinking of giving up! "
"Besides, that is the princess of the Jin Kingdom. Don't you think that by marrying the princess of the Jin Kingdom, you are also doing something for me to make Yangwei the Song Dynasty? That is to say, brother, I have no chance. Otherwise, even if I am a princess, I will be happy. Marry her back! As for the rest, why do you think so much about it?"
"Anyway, second brother tells you something. If you give up on her, you will regret it in the future. After saying that, he patted Shen Tang and turned around to leave..."
Shen Tang sighed, but his heart became even more upset!
Not long after, Cui'er rushed over, and then, together with several slaves, carefully helped Shen Tang back into the house!
In the room, Wanyan Yue was sitting on a chair, holding a booklet in her hand, which was the Journey to the West that Shen Tang had copied for her before. She was looking at it in trance! Seeing Shen Tang return, her face showed joy. Putting down the pamphlet, he stepped forward to greet Shen Tang, and carefully took off Shen Tang's robe and hung it aside.
