Chapter 552 First confrontation ([-]) Second update
After noon, the members of the Northern Yuan Mission arrived at the Honglu Temple under the leadership of the officials of the Honglu Temple.

Qin Wubing and Xu Yanyi sat in front of the square long table for peace talks and waited, but did not welcome them out.

Soon, the representatives of Anguo and Beiyuan sat on both sides. Xu Yanyi spoke out first without being polite, and clarified Anguo's position: first, he did not want war, second, he did not accept any threats, and third, if necessary, he would not hesitate to fight.

On behalf of Beiyuan, Brother Amubu also expressed his position. First, if you want to be stable, you must pay something. Second, the two countries are close neighbors. If you want to be friendly and harmonious, the safest way is to make peace. There is no other way.

Xu Yanyi directly pointed out that these two points were untenable without waiting for Brother Amubu to finish speaking.

The two sides began to fight back and forth, but later it became that you said yours and I said mine, and no one listened to the other.

Qin Wubing remained silent, and Xiao Tiancheng also remained silent.

The two sides were exhausted from the quarrel, Xu Yanyi said directly: "Let's talk tomorrow! See off the guests!"

Xiao Tiancheng said with a smile: "Master Xu, don't be in a hurry to see off the guests, Captain Qin hasn't said anything yet."

Qin Wubing was in a daze, when he heard that he had been named, he pointed to the officials of Honglu Temple solemnly and said: "I agree with what they said, but let the teacher down."

Xiao Tiancheng asked: "They were arguing a lot just now, I didn't realize why, did Captain Qin hear it?"

Qin Wubing smiled and said: "That's because the national teacher has been working hard all the way, and he didn't have a good rest. After a good sleep, his ears will naturally work better."

Xiao Tiancheng shook his head and said:

"Captain Qin didn't know something. In Beiyuan, Khan ordered us to go on business. It's normal not to get off the horse for a few days. Although Beiyuan is not as distinct as the four seasons in Anguo, it is still a vast area. The days on horseback are Beiyuan. People's daily life, coming to Anguo this time, is really not bitter."

Qin Wubing nodded in agreement, he naturally knew that Xiao Tiancheng was telling him that Beiyuan soldiers were not only brave, but also able to endure the bitter cold.

According to Qin Wubing's temperament, he naturally wanted to argue with Xiao Tiancheng, but because the national teacher came suddenly, the emperor asked Zhou Xuan for two days to buy time for Wu Junyong to prepare, so naturally Qin Wubing couldn't really talk about it clearly. .

No one expected that Qin Wubing had no scruples. After nodding, he stretched his waist and yawned again: "I drank two more glasses yesterday, and today I am very lazy in doing things. Think of the state teacher like that." It's hard work, but we people only know how to eat and drink all day long, and we can't bear a little bit of suffering, ashamed, ashamed!"

Xiao Tiancheng obviously did not expect that Qin Wubing would follow his wishes, and he acted like this, as if he was eager to end today's peace talks as soon as possible.

Xiao Tiancheng didn't intend to end it so easily.

"The people of Anguo have plenty of food and clothing, and the dignitaries are naturally free and easy. Beiyuan is different. The herdsmen have a hard life, and most of them are hungry. Naturally, we don't have the days of Captain Qin, but this person is afraid of not being full!"

After Xiao Tiancheng finished speaking, he looked at Qin Wubing meaningfully, Qin Wubing shrugged, and said shamelessly: "I have never been hungry, I really don't know."

From then on, no matter what Xiao Tiancheng said, Qin Wubing answered shamelessly, Xiao Tiancheng was not in a hurry, and asked questions steadily.

But Qin Wu is in a hurry, seeing that the sky is getting dark, he will go to the Dachang Princess' Mansion after dark...

"Captain Qin is a little absent-minded? Could it be something happened at home? I heard that Captain Qin's grandmother is sick in Le County?" Xiao Tiancheng asked seemingly concerned.

Qin Wubing pursed his lips, he knew that Xiao Tiancheng was deliberately provoking him, why did he provoke him?Qin Wubing couldn't figure it out, because he was really angry at this moment.

Qin Wubing looked at Xiao Tiancheng who was still smiling with a sullen face, and was thinking about whether to let him go today, but a familiar voice came from his ear: "Is it over? What are you talking about? It's time to talk about it." ?”

As soon as the voice fell, the old monk rushed in, pulled Qin Wubing up and left, and said as he walked: "This day, I waited until my tongue blistered, but you can sit here safely!"

"Prince Rui! It's peace talks!" Xu Yanyi shouted behind him.

"Talk about it! Let's talk about it tomorrow!"

Qin Wubing quietly extended his thumb to the old monk.

Xu Yanyi had no choice but to apologize to the Beiyuan mission with a helpless look, Xiao Tiancheng said gently: "It's nothing, we have to negotiate a result. Captain Qin is absent-minded today, but tomorrow will be better."

Xu Yanyi hurriedly said: "The national teacher can also rest earlier today. When the peace talks are over, the emperor will definitely entertain you."

Brother Amubu snorted and said, "Not necessarily!"

……

On the way home, Qin Wubing was even more impatient than the old monk. He took the old monk's arm and asked, "Apart from gold, silver and jewels, are there other things left behind by the mother and concubine?"

"Antique calligraphy and painting!"

"anything else?"

"Oh, who told you not to go and see for yourself! How many boxes are there! The Feng team and the emperor's guards have been busy all night, how can I see it!"

"Then why didn't you come to me sooner?"

"I didn't sleep all night last night, and today I feel dizzy, and I have long forgotten the time. If Yu'er reminded me, I would have thought it was morning..."

"Yu'er asked you to come to me?"

"No, she just asked me to rest, and told me the time by the way, saying that you are still in Honglu Temple, so I came."

"Tell me," Qin Wubing squinted his eyes: "Let's go to the eldest princess' mansion now..."

"I want you to go, I won't go!"

"You don't want to see..."

"I've seen enough! This Guan Xue hasn't done anything else all these years. She's only thinking of saving Yu'er's dowry. I don't think the late emperor did anything else. ..."

"Seventh Uncle, there are some things that cannot be said!" Qin Wubing said seriously.

"I know, I know! Didn't I tell you this, I won't say it when Yu'er is around."

"Yu'er... are you okay?"

"I think it's okay. When I arrived last night, I told her that she was quite surprised at the time. Later, when the box was brought, she looked quite calm. It's normal for my mother to love my daughter."

Qin Wubing remained silent.

The old monk said again: "Why don't you go and have a look? However, I don't know if Yu'er is in the mansion right now. When I came out, she was also ordering someone to prepare a car, as if she was going to enter the palace."

Qin Wubing sighed softly.

……

Qin Wubing was still a little depressed, and he couldn't explain why, but when he saw the princess's carriage parked in front of his house, all his unhappiness disappeared instantly.
