"Master Yu!" a military attache from the Gyeonggi Army shouted in the inner city.

One person touched You Miao, who was asleep. You Miao was covered in dust and dust, and his face was dirty. Last night, he was busy all night, checking casualties and rearranging the troops of the Gyeonggi Army. Eyes, asked: "What's the matter? I'm here!"

The military attache looked for a long time before recognizing You Miao, and said hurriedly, "Your Majesty said that Lord You will enter the palace to discuss matters!"

You Miao was still surprised that the emperor finally came out, but after thinking about it, he remembered that Zhao Hao had already abdicated, and the current emperor was the prince Zhao Yong, so he climbed the horse prepared by the military officer and entered the Hall of Supreme Harmony.

When he arrived outside the Hall of Supreme Harmony, the hall was very quiet. You Miao put on his armor and entered from the side, but no one stopped him. The civil officials were led by Li Yan, and the military generals were led by Zhao Chao. Li Yan just looked back at him and signaled. You Miao don't speak.

You Miao understood and stood in the queue of civil servants. After a long period of silence, the former prince, the current emperor Zhao Zhuo sneered: "You Tartar Khan has a big appetite."

The envoy murmured a great deal, and the Han man brought by the side was sweating coldly on his forehead and said tremblingly: "Qi... Your Majesty, the Tartar Khan said... If Your Majesty is unwilling... not willing to negotiate peace, I am afraid that I will hurt you. The people of the city... what the Khan wants..."

The envoy glanced at the Chinese translator, and then began to speak again, sneering while speaking, and gestured extremely arrogantly. The people in the hall understood the conditions of one, two, three and four. After the envoy finished speaking, he urged the Chinese to translate.

"Let's talk." The prince said, "What conditions?"

The Chinese translator said in a trembling voice: "One: I will make a minister to... Khan, and make the Khan of the Tartar tribe the emperor. Let King Tianqi go with the army, pay homage to the khan, and send five princes as pledges to the north of Saibei."

The ministers shouted, the translator started, and he simply stopped hiding, and said: "Two: with... silk... 1,000 horses, 30,000... 30,000 taels of gold, ten... 100,000 taels of silver, and beautiful women... 3,000 people. , Panlong Jade Wall... to cultivate the good between the two countries."

"Three: Every year pays gold... 5,000 taels, silver 50,000... taels."

"Four: Tianqi people must not cross the north of the Yellow River..."

"Five: Put back the little prince of Quanrong... Sanado."

The ministers were talking in a low voice, You Miao immediately burst into flames, and the hand holding the sword couldn't stop shaking. It was a shame!

"You..." The prince laughed and said, "Don't you think..."

As expected, the prince did not finish a sentence, and the envoy sneered and said a lot, and the Han translator looked at the envoy and then at the prince. The prince noticed something was wrong and frowned, "What did he say?"

The Han Chinese translated: "He said... The Khan knew that His Majesty was waiting for King Nie Danqin, that the Tatars had formed an alliance with the Xianbei, Jie and other Wuhu tribes, and that General Nie of your country had been killed by King Chang Yao in Linshan..."

In an instant, the hall panicked, and Zhao Chao shouted violently: "Yunyan confuses everyone!"

When the sound rang, the envoy was slightly shocked, but couldn't help sneering.

The Han translator looked at Zhao Chao, and said to the prince: "The troops and horses in Jiangnan and other places are also blocked by the wind and snow at Zhengliangguan. Within three months, Your Majesty will not be able to wait for King Qin's army. The capital is isolated and helpless. I advise Your Majesty to think twice."

Said that the envoy Bina threw two things, and when they fell, the echo lingered in the hall for a long time.

The iron objects are Nie Dan's wristbands and waist cards.

Zhao Chao was completely shocked until this moment, You Miao was also unable to speak for a long time, all the ministers in the hall were stunned, even Nie Dan died? ! how can that be

The prince stood up abruptly, and Li Yan immediately winked, indicating that he must not be impulsive at this moment, and said, "Please go down and rest first."

An official led Jijie down, the hall was silent, no one dared to speak for a while, You Miao looked around, and was surprised to find that the court had been replaced by people he was familiar with. After pondering for a long time, the prince said: "Qin Qing, you are responsible for guarding that fellow, and try to provide as much information as possible."

Qin Shaonan took the order to leave, the prince sat back on the dragon chair, sighed heavily, and his voice echoed in the hall.

"What do you think?" The prince said solemnly.

After a long silence, Li Yan replied, "Sui Silk, Suigong have been around since ancient times."

Zhao Chao said coldly: "According to the meaning of Lord Li, these requirements, these conditions, are there still peace talks?"

"His Royal Highness." Pingxi said, "General Nie's army will never return to King Qin again."

These words reminded everyone that their eyes were fixed on Nie Dan's wristbands and waistband for a while. Nie Dan, who drank with himself on the night of the Qixi Festival and cooked a meal himself, died in the blink of an eye for half a year.

Tang Hui, who came to the villa and called You Miao brother with a smile, also died like this.

You Miao was a little stunned and stared at Nie Dan's relic.

The courtiers began arguing over whether to fight or not. Zhao Chao blushed and shouted in shock, "No one is allowed to leave! Otherwise, how can you deal with the spirits of the ancestors of the Zhao family in the sky!"

You Miao came back to her senses and saw that Zhao Chao had already drawn his sword, so he was about to go forward and fight Li Yan desperately, and hurriedly stepped forward to hug him, Li Yan pushed Zhao Chao away in anger, and sorted out his torn robes. Stop talking to him, and turn to the prince.

"Article 4." Li Yan's face was as cold as ice, and he said coldly: "The Tartars are nomads, they can't have roots in the Central Plains, the land north of the Yellow River is theirs, how can the barbarians manage Come here? As long as we send officials from our side to help them take care of it, in the final analysis, this is still the place of the apocalypse... "

"Cut the border and split the soil! Li Yan, you bastard!" Zhao Chao roared and drew his sword!

"Take him down!" The prince got up angrily, the guards on the left and right were about to step forward, and You Miao hurriedly stopped him: "Your Majesty! I have something to say!"

Seeing Zhao Chao's posture, he could not wait to go forward to assassinate the prince. You Miao was afraid that something would really go wrong, so he hurriedly dragged his arms behind him.

"Fifth." Li Yan said: "Who is the third prince of Quanrong? I don't know where he is. I'm afraid he's already dead. This person can't be handed over no matter what. If your majesty is willing, the minister is willing to go to Tartar alone. The Tar Great Camp negotiated peace. The third generation of the ministers did their best for our emperor. Now that the country is in trouble, I only hope that Li Yan's life will give His Majesty a chance to breathe."

You Miao dragged Zhao Chao and pressed him against the wall, but Li Yan was not afraid at all, and said, "His Royal Highness wants to take the name of the minister, and when the minister returns after the reconciliation, he will definitely send the head."

The setting sun slanted and shot in from outside the window of the Hall of Supreme Harmony. Li Yan stood alone in the hall, with a slender figure with an indescribable sense of loneliness. Outside the hall, Zhao Chao threw his sword on the ground and left the palace without looking back.

On the early morning of the twenty-fourth day of the twelfth lunar month, there was a light snow in the capital, and Li Yan rode a horse alone and went out of the city to make peace with the Tatar army. Zhao Chao watched him leave from the city, and his expression seemed to be touched.

This is the most desperate winter of the year. The reinforcement of troops from Jiangnan has not yet arrived. There is a shortage of food in the city. The prince ascends the throne, and the reign name is changed to Nanzhao. There is no news of the troops led by Nie Dan. Now the only hope is the troops and horses in Jiangnan. .
