Hu Zi knew that his lord was angry, so he didn't dare to ask more, so he took a broom and dustpan, swept the ground, and then ordered someone to put the charcoal basin again, and made a pot of weak tea for Pang Xiao himself.
Seeing Pang Xiao's complexion, Hu Zi asked the question in his heart, "How can you think of peace talks? We have always had the upper hand in the war, and it should be Dayan who wants to make peace. Why does this matter? Let's bring it up first?"
Pang Xiao put his clothes on the armchair and sat down, his lips curved into a mocking arc, "Isn't this very clear?"
Huzi scratched his head, "Master, I don't understand."
"We have been fighting the Northern Hebei for many years. After the victory, we took over the devastated mess, and then we fought with Dayan, and the northern Tartars have been harassing and burning, killing and looting. Ji Zeyu's defenders in the north also have to eat horses. How many silver taels do you have in our treasury?"
"Yes, but our big Zhou soldiers are strong and strong..."
"No matter how strong the soldiers and the strongest horses are, they must have enough food before they have the strength to fight. After the emperor ascended the throne, he immediately declared war on Dayan. Is it just to rule the world?"
Hu Zi blinked his big eyes, and it took a long time before he made a long "Oh" sound.
"I understand! The sage has taken a fancy to Dayan's wealthy land, and they are soft persimmons, and they want to fight for war."
Pang Xiao poured himself a cup of tea and sipped it slowly.
Huzi turned around a few times on the ground, slapped his forehead and said, "This time, the Holy Master doesn't want to really talk about peace, right? I'm afraid that the money on the front line is not enough, so I lied about the peace talks for the time being, and coaxed out a sum of money so that we can continue. Beating the group of soft persimmons from Yanchao?"
Pang Xiao nodded, staring at the white porcelain teacup in his hand with unfathomable eyes.
"Tsk tsk, it's interesting now. The pustules in the Yan Dynasty are eager to have peace talks with us. I'm afraid they came here with 120,000 sincerity, otherwise the old dog Yuchi would not let Qin Huaiyuan sacrifice Qin Huaiyuan. Fourth Miss is here. If the peace talks are concluded, and you find that you have been deceived, will they not arouse their public anger?"
"People's anger in the Yan Dynasty has been aroused long ago." Pang Xiao's slender, strong fingers with calluses turned the teacup, "Old dog Yuchi favored the demon queen and harmed Zhongliang, whether it was the death of the imperial physician Tang or the death of Sun Yuanming. Death, or the whole family of Dingguo’s mansion, one after another, all the people of Dayan saw are how stupid the king is, and the people who are greedy for life and fear of death ignore the life and death of the soldiers, whenever they face danger, Jun Jun pushed his subjects out to block the knife for himself, and after repeated attacks, the army and people of Dayan were already completely disappointed with Jun Jun. And this is exactly what our sage wanted."
Hu Zi said clearly: "That's why the sage said that he wanted Sun Yuanming's brain, so that the anger of the people of the Yan Dynasty could not be released, and he hated the faint-hearted prince even more?"
"right."
With that said, Hu Zi understands even more.
This time, the peace talks not only wanted to steal money and use Dayan's money to fight Dayan, but also used Qin Huaiyuan's good reputation to once again arouse the dissatisfaction of Dayan's military and civilians against Shunjun.
Last time, in order to please Da Zhou, Jun Jun and the Demon Empress wanted the brains of Da Caizi Sun.
This time, I don't even want to face, the big man is going to hide under the woman's skirt and push a beautiful girl out.
Even if the old dog Yuchi was at ease, the bloody men of Dayan Dynasty would only feel humiliation and anger.
After all, Da Zhou just killed Dayan's 20,000 prisoners! There are more than 20,000 great men who can never go home again!
These 20,000 people have parents, relatives, and friends.
The revenge of murder is as deep as the ocean, and Jun Jun did not support them for revenge, but killed all the men of Dingguo’s mansion to please Da Zhou, and now he has to sacrifice Qin Taishi’s daughter!
As a result, it would be even more difficult for Dayan to think about being united.
Hu Zi had to give a thumbs up for Zhou Di's shrewdness.
"The sage is really brilliant! But what are you going to do this time? Last time you didn't agree to slaughter the city, the sage ordered someone to kill Dayan's prisoners in a blink of an eye, which still achieved the purpose of frightening the old dog Yuchi. The position of marshal has been taken away. If you block it again this time, I am afraid that the sage will be even more angry. What will happen by then, your Hu Ben army is fighting too hard, and it is only under your orders, which has already caused people to fear."
"In any case, Qin Si can only be mine." Pang Xiao put down the teacup and said firmly.
"I just said that the master must like Miss Qin Fourth!"
Pang Xiao sneered: "Who said I like her?"
"Ah?" Hu Zi opened his mouth in surprise.
"Master keeps her by his side and looks at it as a painting, can't you?"
Hu Zi lowered his head and secretly pouted: "Okay, whatever the master says is fine."
Pang Xiao tapped the table with his slender index finger, and said after a moment, "Since I was injured to save her, she only sent her maid to see me, and she never even looked at me, this is also for the benefactor. Attitude? You will tell Bingtang tomorrow to tell her lady, if Qin Si refuses to come to see me, I will come to see her. "
After speaking, Pang Xiao stood up and walked into the inner room.
Tiger grinned again.
Did you say you don't like people? I don't even see what I've been doing abnormally.
People who used to be rude to women in the past are now forcing other girls to come and see themselves!
If the old lady and Mrs. Tai know about this, they will make their mouths crooked.
Amitabha, finally their precious son (grandson) doesn't have the quirk of breaking up his sleeves!

At this time, in the capital city, Da Zhou took the initiative to ask for peace. The emperor arranged for Taishi Qin to preside over the peace talks, and the news that Taishi Qin ordered his daughter to give up his daughter had already caused a lot of trouble in the city.
I don't know who preached it, but everyone is saying that someone from Da Zhou's Ministry of War, Lian, is a womanizer, and has a quirk of abuse.
Several versions of this news were spread in the blink of an eye, and the more the content was spread, the more terrifying it became. Many women and those with daughters at home broke into a cold sweat for Qin Taishi's daughter.
Soldiers, civilians, courtiers, and courtiers with a little conscience in the army all mourned the misfortunes of Duke Dingguo, who had been in the military for a lifetime. Now I hear again that Duke Ding's granddaughter is going to be given to an old lecher to play with. Not only is her virginity difficult to preserve, her life is even more worrying, and everyone is out of anger!
In many teahouses and restaurants, people secretly talked about this, cursing the faint-hearted emperor, and the emperor had to send people from the yamen to patrol the streets, arresting chaotic ministers and thieves who dared to say the emperor's right and wrong. For a time, the entire Kyoto city was filled with in a tense atmosphere.
In the Qin Mansion, Qin Yining naturally also got the news.
She wasn't like Sun shi who fainted with fright when she heard this, and it wasn't like Bingtang and Songlan's crying eyes were swollen.
She found it calm and calm, and even got a good night's sleep.
Early the next morning, Qin Yining just got up when he heard a servant girl replying: "Four girls, the people around the eldest master were waiting outside before dawn. They said that it was the master's order, please go to the outer courtyard to have breakfast together."
