Tiantang Splendid

Chapter 1841
In front of Fang Jun, Ji Shiju seemed much more casual.

When Ji Shiju arrived at Chunfan Building the next day, Fang Jun hosted a banquet as before. Ji Shiju simply washed the dust and dirt off his face, and then let go of eating and drinking.

Fang Jun was quite surprised. Although Ji Shiju in the past seemed ugly to him, but he behaved politely and neither humble nor overbearing, but in front of him, it seemed that his armor had been removed, and he had no more scruples.

"Why is Lord Hou looking at me like this?" Ji Shiju was chewing delicious dishes from the Tang Dynasty, drinking cups of fine wine from Fangfu, seeing Fang Jun looking at him with a strange expression, he couldn't help being very surprised.

Fang Jun said: "Is there a kind of joy that comes from the depths of the soul? I don't have to spend the rest of my life with those insects in the dirty and dark ditch. I feel that the sun is very warm, the sky is so blue, and even the blowing wind Are they all scented?"

Ji Shiju pondered for a moment, then praised: "You are worthy of being the most talented man in the Tang Dynasty. These words have really touched my heart... As a native of Einu, I have an unshakable hatred with the Japanese, but I can't help it." If you don’t pretend to be a snake, Hou Ye knows how disgusting and depressing it is in my heart? Now with the help of Hou Ye, the Aizu people can finally seize a piece of warm land to survive and multiply. Although the ancestral land is still in the hands of the Japanese, the Aizu people People are already very content.”

Having said that, he put down the bowls and chopsticks, stood up, went to Fang Jun and knelt down, throwing himself on the ground.

"You are the benefactor of the Ainu people. The Ainu people will carve monuments and build temples for you. The generations to come will remember your kindness. From now on, as long as there is one Ainu living in the world, I will face you and you His descendants will be regarded as benefactors, no matter what request, even if his body is broken."

This oath is extremely solemn.

As long as the Ainu people still remember what happened today, even if the rhetoric such as being smashed into pieces will gradually fade away within a few decades, but even after a hundred generations, Fang Jun’s descendants will definitely be regarded as the most important people in the Ainu people’s territory. Honorable guest, respect is added.

Fang Jun stretched out his hand to help him up, and said with a smile: "Giving roses to others has a lingering fragrance in your hands. Although I have never coveted the rewards of the Ainu people, but seeing that the poor Ainu people can have a stable and warm home is also a deep feeling." Feel relieved. Get up and talk."

Although I have never heard the phrase "Giving a rose to someone has a lingering fragrance", it did not prevent Ji Shiju from understanding the meaning. He stood up and said in admiration: "Before coming here, all Azou people please come here They express their heartfelt thanks to you, and everyone has reached a consensus. This mediation will be completely entrusted to you to lead the mediation. What conditions do you say, Lord Hou, that is what the conditions are, even if it is for us people I have never complained about going through mountains of swords and seas of fire, so as to express my gratitude and trust to you."

Look at what people say, what is caring for this matter?

This is called caring!
Fang Jun is just a donkey, if you screw him up, he's even worse than you!But like Ji Shiju, he completely put himself and the Ainu people in the position of a "beneficiary", saying that you can do whatever you want, and we will agree to any conditions, even if I send you all the women in the clan to warm you up. Chuan, I will never frown...

Such an atmosphere made Fang Jun a little embarrassed.

In the final analysis, he is not a qualified diplomat, and he cannot put interests first in everything, and it is still out of face...

*****
The next day, the winter sun was bright and the sea breeze was gentle.

The windows on the top floor of Chunfan Building are closed, and the sun shines in through the glass windows, making the hall bright.

A long wooden table was placed in the middle of the hall. Although the materials were obtained locally from the big trees felled in the nearby mountains, the craftsmen who usually repaired warships had no place to show off their craftsmanship, so they made the table complicated and luxurious. Abnormally, even the chairs placed in a circle are carved with hollow patterns, which look exquisite and gorgeous.

Charcoal stoves were lit in the four corners, the wind was blowing outside the window, and the building was as warm as spring.

Fang Jun sat at the head seat at the end of the long table, and there was another desk at the back beside him. Wang Xuance and several naval officials sat there to record the meeting process.

Both sides of the negotiation are seated left and right.

On the Japanese side, of course, Su Ermo was the main force, as well as a few civil officials, while the Ainu people were much simpler. Only Ji Shiju was accompanied by a tall young man with a stern face, who was his younger brother Ji Shijun.

In addition, representatives from Silla, Baekje, Linyi and other countries attended as witnesses.

Of course, almost all countries welcome the opening of a treaty port in the country of Wa, which means that the huge market of the country of Wa will be opened to merchants from all countries. Will be exploited by officials.

Under the leadership of Datang, a stable, harmonious and prosperous business circle will gradually take shape after covering many countries in East Asia and Southeast Asia.

Among them, Goguryeo, which is about to start a war with Datang, is excluded...

This is tantamount to isolating it at the diplomatic level, without the support of any country.Even Baekje, which has always worn a pair of trousers with Goguryeo, is vacillating between them. On the one hand, it is the imminent high pressure of Goguryeo, on the other hand, it is huge economic benefits. It is really difficult to choose.

But as long as they don't have a good relationship with Silla, it will be very difficult for them to board the big ship of Datang...

Ji Shijun stepped forward to salute Fang Jun, his eyes were full of admiration and admiration: "Brother has always admired Lord Hou, and he has said in front of me countless times that Lord Hou is extremely talented in literature and martial arts, which makes me yearn for it all the time. When we meet today, I know that he is such a heroic young hero! Lord Hou was able to intervene in the war between the Ainu people and the Japanese people. He is indeed the benefactor of the Ainu people. But there is an order, and I will die!"

The tone of this set of rhetoric is weird and inaccurate. Obviously, I don’t usually speak Chinese. This time, someone must have drafted the draft and memorized it for a long time...

But even so, Fang Jun blushed a little.

It's not scary when your own people flatter you, but it's really scary when crooked nuts flatter you...

Fortunately, Fang Jun's face was dark and slightly red, but it didn't show much.

Fang Jun said a few words politely, and invited Ji Shijun to visit Datang when he had nothing to do, or to go to Nanyang with the navy fleet to broaden his horizons, and then invited Ji Shijun and his two brothers to sit down.

But the negotiating session was not friendly.

As soon as he came up, Ji Shiju said bluntly: "The Japanese occupied my homeland and killed my people. The bloody enmity is too much to write down. Every Ainu person engraves this hatred in his heart, thinking about killing the enemy for revenge and returning home all the time. Never die! The Tang Dynasty is a kingdom of heaven and a state of etiquette. Huating Hou is a hero who is loyal and courageous. Now Huating Hou has come forward to mediate for the peace of Honshu Island. I hope the two sides will stop the war. Shrimp The Yi people are willing to obey Datang's will, and they will stop fighting and keep their duty. As for this negotiation, the Yi people will fully comply with Datang's wishes, and accept any request unconditionally. I just hope that an agreement can be reached quickly, my lord I really don’t want to sit at the same table with the brutal Japanese.”

Su Ermoli was so angry that his face flushed.

It's all for you to flatter Fang Jun, why do you want to bring the Japanese along?

The Japanese killed many Ainu people, but could it be that the Ainu people killed fewer Japanese people?
Uh, it's really missing a few...

But you killed few people because you are weak, if you deal with them easily, you will not have the slightest bit of mercy when your butcher's knife hits the head of the Japanese.

He sneered: "Your Excellency, as an Ainu, has been able to commit himself to the center of the Wa Kingdom for many years. It's really ridiculous that a person like a poodle, who is like a poodle, is so arrogant once he gains power."

Ji Shiju was not upset, but said indifferently: "I will not talk to the old dog who plotted to usurp the throne and kill the old master."

Su Ermo was furious: "Zhuzi, be bold!"

"boom!"

Fang Jun put the teacup heavily on the table, and said in a deep voice: "I appear here to mediate the war between the two of you, so that the common people will not be slaughtered and their lives will be burned. If anyone refuses to accept it, he can go out immediately and prepare for the battle." , Let's see whose knife is faster and whose mouth is sharper!"

Su Ermoli was so angry that his white beard trembled wildly.

You turned a blind eye to Ji Shiju's rude words just now, but now you say something harsh when I say a few words, isn't it too biased?
But even though he was angry in his heart, he didn't dare to say much.

He understood that the Tang people were playing with "balance", not because they were close to the Ainu people and hated the Japanese people, but because the general trend was to help the weak and eliminate the strong.On the other hand, if the weak side is the Wa country, the Tang people will definitely support the Wa people against the Ainu people.

In the final analysis, this has nothing to do with emotion, it is just a game of choice between imperial strategies.

However, what he didn't know was that the attack and persecution of the Wa Kingdom was planned by Fang Jun. It was a bit far-fetched to say that it was in line with the imperial policy, and it was entirely out of personal emotions.
