Under the careful care of the two doctors, Yue Yue's body recovered quickly and her emotions gradually stabilized. Duoji originally wanted to take people back to the Zhuyue tribe as soon as possible, but seeing that Ling Xing'er often came to talk with her, and the two seemed to have a good relationship, they decided to stay for a while and see if there was anything they could do to help.

Before waiting for ten days, on the seventh day, Yerteng sent someone to send a letter, agreeing to meet Ji Yanran at a place tens of miles away from Yancheng in the Gobi Desert - during peacetime, there is often It will be used as a trading market, and now, at least until Yerten's ambitions are restrained, and before Daliang's iron cavalry withdraws, the common people dare not come here again.

Yun Yifeng said: "I will go with the prince."

"It's so cold, stay at home and wait for me." Ji Yanran held his hands and kissed him, "Don't worry."

"The other party is a cunning wolf, how can I not worry." Yun Yifeng frowned slightly. What Yerten wants, even a three-year-old doll in the northwest land knows that there is no need for negotiation. Repelling the Night Wolf Tribe and saving Yueya are all things I do willingly, so even if I stop here and stop cooperating with Yerten, I won't feel any regrets.

"It's related to the blood ganoderma, it's related to you, I want to try all the possibilities." Ji Yanran hugged him and said in a low voice, "I love you like my life, and I will go through fire and water, but I also know what to do and what to do." It shouldn't be done, he can't threaten me, huh?"

Yun Yifeng hesitated to speak, but finally he just wrapped his arms around his waist and said sullenly: "Okay, then I'll wait for you to come back."

Lin Ying was walking with Ji Yanran. When the two left the General's Mansion, Li Jun ran after him from behind, panting, "Wait a minute, wait a moment!"

Lin Ying was puzzled: "King Pingle is in such a hurry, what's the matter?"

"It's nothing, I just want to remind you again." Li Jun said anxiously, "You must get the blood ganoderma, no matter what method you use, even if you cheat Yerten, it's important to detoxify the master of Yunmen first." While talking, he lowered his voice again, "I'm telling the truth, these days, he's been coughing up blood secretly, his body seems to be unable to hold on, and I'm not allowed to tell my seventh brother, Senior Mei can testify. "

Lin Ying was worried when she heard the words, and looked at the prince next to her. She saw that the spirit and expression of the master of Yunmen were not bad on weekdays, and she thought that Jilian's medicine was still effective, so it turned out to be like this

"Go and stay with Yun'er." Ji Yanran said, "I will be back as soon as possible."

Li Jun agreed, and stood at the door with her sleeves in her hands, watching the two go away, still worried.

In the Nuan Pavilion in the backyard, Yun Yifeng was sitting at the table, wrapped in a thick and soft cloak, holding his temple with one hand, staring at the hair in front of him in a daze. A New Year picture was pasted with paste on the wall, a fat doll with big red and green carp, and a circle of auspicious patterns on the side of the old birthday star. No matter how you look at it, you are beaming, and the room is full of good omens.

So Li Jun said: "Don't worry, the seventh brother will definitely get the blood ganoderma back."

"I'm not waiting for the blood ganoderma." Yun Yifeng sat up, "Sometimes when I think about it, it would be better to follow what you said, capture the thief first, and tie up Yerten quickly."

As soon as Li Jun slapped her thigh, let's do this, there is still time!

Yun Yifeng smiled and asked him: "Have the prince and Vice General Lin left?"

"Yes, if everything goes well, I can come back tonight." Li Jun made tea for him, "What about you, do you want to go out for a walk, or go back to the bedroom to rest?"

"I don't even want to." Yun Yifeng was still absent-minded.

Li Jun thought for a while, and said, "Why don't you listen to me tell you about the famous mountains and rivers in various places, and Jiangnan, which you have always wanted to go to?" I have had countless beauties, but I have never married so far. It's not that I don't love beauties, but that there are too many beauties, and I really can't love them.

Yun Yifeng said: "The Jiangnan I want to go the most is Green City." Just listening to the name, it is a land of distant mountains and near water, thick and thin mist. Coincidentally, Li Jun really stayed there for a few months, and this time he happened to tell him in detail, the small alley paved with bluestone slabs, with white walls and black tiles on both sides, and a branch of pink and white peach blossoms sticking out. When the eaves are hit by the rain and wind, a messy fragrance will flow out.

Li Jun was delighted: "In the future, you and the seventh brother will also buy a house like this."

Yun Yifeng smiled: "Okay."

"At that time, I will open an antique shop in Green City, or a brocade shop, or simply open a song and dance workshop." Li Jun's eyebrows were beaming, and the fairy was happy.

Yun Yifeng closed his eyes, and asked him casually, since he wanted to open a singing and dancing studio, why not go to Jinling City, where the bustling and noisy, nephrite fragrance is fragrant. Green City is too lonely, and you, a place of sensuality, might end up losing money.

"Then I want to be with you and my seventh brother." Li Jun poured tea by herself and continued talking about the people and things in Green City. After rambling on for a long time, she realized that the person at the table had fallen asleep at some point.

A dream like light catkins, March surrounded by fireworks, and willows drooping in the wind.

Yun Yifeng thought drowsily, if this is the case, he has seen it with his own eyes.

Yerten had already led the others to arrive first. In the empty room—it should have been a meat market before, the stone table was still splattered with dried blood, and a few rusty bone knives were randomly thrown in the corner. In such a bad environment, dozens of candles flickered, and even the air was filled with oppression.

Lin Ying said: "The chief really knows how to choose places."

"This desert is desolate and barren, and there is no decent place to find, so we can only make a living here." Yerten said, "But don't worry, my lord, this land will not be like this forever."

Ji Yanran raised her eyebrows: "Why, the chief wants to cooperate with Daliang to prevent wind, control sand, build roads and keep the people safe?"

"It's not about cooperating, but handing over this land to me completely." Yerten's voice was low, the black cloak was piled up on the ground, and was swept by the wind, like a thick and lingering thick fog, his eyes were burning, "I want Ten cities in the northwest of Daliang, this is the third condition."

Ji Yanran stared at him silently, while Lin Ying said from the sidelines: "If I remember correctly, the leader himself promised that the third condition has nothing to do with the Liang, the people, or the army, let alone provoking war."

"Daliang sits on thousands of miles of fertile land to the south, which is fertile and fertile. Why should we hold on tightly to these ten cities in the northwest, which are bitter, cold and poor? It is better to hand them over to me, which will be more beneficial to the people." Yeerten said, "As for the army and war, as long as Xiao Xiao His Royal Highness promised, then everything will be done under sunshine and peace, and there will be no killing."

Ji Yanran said coldly: "Whether to give to the ten cities in the northwest, I'm afraid it's not up to me."

"Of course, the emperor of Daliang needs to agree, but whether the emperor agrees or not depends entirely on the prince." Yeerteng said, "After all, the sky is high and the emperor is far away, and the northwest is the prince's territory."

Standing aside, Lin Ying thought to herself, this negotiation is enough to fuck, but the wind is still blowing outside, whining, whining, as if it is going to knock down the tattered yellow mud roof on her head go. He was born in a noble family in Wangcheng, even though he has been in the military camp for a long time, he rarely swears on weekdays, but at this time, he really wants to greet the other party's ancestors.

Ji Yanran remained calm: "Why, the big boss has a way to make the emperor willingly cut off the ten cities in the northwest?"

"Your Majesty needs to cooperate." Yerten sat on the other side of the long table, leaning forward slightly, "I guarantee that from now on, there will be at least a hundred years of peace between the Ge Teng tribe and Daliang. Trade and exchanges, countless money and wine will fill their rooms and tents. I will also assist Daliang to keep the entire desert and grassland safe, so that there will be no more wars in the northwest, so that the prince can disarm and return to the field, and be with his beloved. Together they live in seclusion in the green mountains and green waters."

Peace and prosperity are what the people of the Northwest have longed for, and a fully open trade market sounds full of temptation. Yerten continued: "The price of all this is nothing more than ten poor and desolate cities. If the prince nods, I have my own way to let the emperor of Daliang issue an imperial edict."

"What's more, even if it's not for the common people, it's still for the master of Yunmen."

"One month later, if the prince has not given me an answer, then the blood ganoderma growing in the night dew will be poured with fire oil and completely burned to ashes."

A door panel was blown off by the strong wind, hit the wall with a "bang", and fell to pieces.

The sky outside was gloomy, and yellow sand filled everyone's eyes.

Before leaving, Yerteng added another sentence: "By the way, there are also Zhou Jiuxiao and Yang Boqing, please send them back to the Ge Teng tribe as soon as possible."

The sound of horseshoes outside the house receded chaotically, and the wind gradually weakened.

Lin Ying probed: "My lord?"

Ji Yanran didn't say a word, but his eyes were full of dark anger and turmoil. After a long time, he said: "Let's go, go back."

Yun Yifeng had already rested, and Li Jun was taking a nap in the outer room. When she heard the two came back, she hurried out to ask about the result, but was stopped by Lin Ying with her eyes, and she said with interest and anxiety: "Then...then I'll go to bed first That's right, Master Yunmen didn't eat much at night, and he went to bed early, as if he wasn't feeling well."

Ji Yanran threw the cloak aside, and strode back to the bedroom.

Yun Yifeng huddled in the middle, and said in a nasal voice: "You don't have to listen to King Pingle, I'm just lazy for a while, and the chicken noodle soup cooked by the cook at night is terrible."

Ji Yanran squatted beside the bed, putting the back of her hand on his forehead.

Yun Yifeng said: "Look, I said it's okay, go take a bath quickly."

Ji Yanran sighed: "Aren't you going to ask me about the result of the negotiation?"

"I can guess." Yun Yifeng wrapped the quilt tightly again, "His preference is nothing more than fifteen cities in the northwest, or twenty cities?"

"Not as greedy as you." Ji Yanran rested her chin on his pillow and said hoarsely, "He only wants ten cities."

"It's a good idea, I won't give him a piece of land, and I won't give him half of the village." Yun Yifeng pouted, "Be obedient, go wash up."

The tone of the two was relaxed, like an ordinary young couple living a life, chatting a few words before going to bed. The lazy neighbor came to borrow rice again. We have agreed that no one is allowed to agree to him.

Ji Yanran forced a smile, and lightly kissed him on the face: "Yeah."
