"Your Majesty, you must not have the intention of harming others, and you must have the intention of guarding against others!" Dalba was still muttering to himself, "Besides, what happened today is irreversible. The Xuanming Guards killed thousands of us. Is it possible that this is the case?" Can we just let it go? This is a blood feud that will be repaid for generations!"
This means that there is no possibility of peace talks at all.
"Let's go for a walk and see what he says?" But Bu He knew that he had to go, otherwise disaster would be imminent!
Wanyan Pingqiu also had a bad temper. She was easily angered and was particularly shy.
He really didn't know about the fact that he had just assumed the leadership of the alliance, otherwise he would definitely have sent someone to express his congratulations... I'm afraid he is already very angry with himself. If he didn't go to this banquet, he might not be able to wait until tomorrow. He will lead his troops to kill!
He could really do this.
"Your Majesty, you are feeling unwell right now, and you just happened to be sick..." Dalba didn't want Bu He to go, because he felt that Bu He was a little shaken now. He had just expressed his intention to withdraw. If Wanyan Pingqiu persuaded him like this, , I am afraid that I will push the boat with the current and use the slope to get off the donkey.
Then how can I take revenge on Xiao Chen?
"Darba, you don't have to say anything. Get ready. Come to the banquet with me and see what Wanyan Pingqiu has to say!" Bu He had made up his mind.
"Yes." Dalba had no choice but to agree.
After going out, I told several disciples of the Secret Mountain Sect that when I arrived at Wanyan Pingqiu's place, they would act based on my look! If the talks break down, there's nothing to say. If peace talks really happen, then we'll just go ahead and kill the people in Xuanming City!
Then he kidnapped Wanyan Pingqiu and forced his troops to attack Xuanming City. In this way, everything in Yanyun's northern border would be in chaos, and he, Xiao Chen, would never have a good life again!
The idea was good, but there was no certainty that things would turn out as he wished.
Bu He arrived as promised and saw the continuous camps at the foot of Baitou Mountain, the neat military appearance, and dozens of brand-new cannons placed at the entrance of the Dazhong Military Tent. He couldn't help but be secretly surprised. This Wanyan Pingqiu was following me. Where is the demonstration?
When they heard that he was coming, Wanyan Pingqiu came out to greet him personally, making people from all over the place laugh, "Brother Bu He, long time no see, you look... pretty good."
I originally wanted to say that you look good after a long time, but seeing Bu He looking listless and sick, it was hard for me to say this kind words, so I could only pass it on vaguely.
"Bu congratulations to Prince Wanyan for being honored as the leader of the Northern Alliance. From now on, brother, I will have someone to rely on and will not be bullied by others!" Bu congratulated his words.
"Hahaha, Brother Bu He is such a hero. It's good if you don't bully others. Who dares to bully you? I think this is a misunderstanding. You guys can just sit down and talk it over. There is an old saying in China called distant relatives. It’s better to be a close neighbor. If you are close to me, Mo Jie, and Yan Yun, then we are close neighbors, and we should get along well with each other.”
Wanyan Pingqiu downplayed such a big thing, because if this was a misunderstanding, then the misunderstanding would be huge!
"Haha, I do want to benefit from it. That guy went too far. He took away my cattle and sheep, and captured my soldiers... Alliance leader, don't you think this is bullying? You must let me live, Bu He!" He sneered.
"Go in and say it, it's windy outside. I see that Brother Buhe is wearing thin clothes. It would be bad if he catches a cold and gets sick. By the way, the people from Xuanming City have already arrived. They have been waiting for you, Brother Buhe, for a long time!" Wanyan Pingqiu took his arm affectionately and pulled him all the way into the tent.
The banquet has been set up in the big tent. The food in the army is simple but heroic.
There were only four large pots, one with chopped Chinese cabbage mixed with sesame oil and soy vinegar, one with roasted roe deer meat, one with air-dried beef bones, and one with boiled mutton, both meat and vegetables.
There were already two people sitting at the table, a handsome young man with a gentle manner and elegant demeanor, and a tall and high-spirited man wearing a felt hat.
There were also two teenagers, one was quite ugly, the other was quite handsome, each holding a piece of greasy dried beef bone in their hands, gnawing on it happily, their mouths full of oil, looking intently as if no one else was watching.
"Let me introduce you!" Wanyan Pingqiu greeted enthusiastically, "This is Baili Qingyun, the new county magistrate of Xuanming City, this is Brother Li Tenghua, this is Brother Ouyang Yunyi, and this is Brother Li. Ren Bijiang, young master... This is Prince Buhe, and these are..." But he didn't recognize Dalba and the others.
"Haha, my name is Dalba!" Dalba said in a rough voice, "What kind of birdmen are these? Is a small county magistrate qualified to negotiate with our prince?"
"Wanyan Pingqiu was very unhappy when he heard this and said to himself that this idiot monk is really an idiot. Who do you think you are? Is there any place for you to talk here?
Are you thinking that I, Wanyan Pingqiu, have a bad temper when I talk nonsense?
"Baili Qingyun, I have met the prince." Baili Qingyun ignored Dalba at all. He just stood up and smiled at Bu He and handed over his hands in a polite and elegant manner.
"Haha, I don't dare take it." Bu He laughed twice, with a fierce look in his eyes.
Wanyan Pingqiu hurriedly greeted everyone and quickly took their seats. Let's chat while eating...
"Leader Wanyan, you are really kidding Xiao Wang!" Dalba glared at Baili Qingyun and said, "Do you really want me to negotiate with this kid? This is ridiculous, extremely ridiculous!"
"Prince Buhe, please calm down the thunderous anger and listen to me." Baili Qingyun said slowly and unhurriedly, "In my opinion, this little conflict between us is actually between Xuanming City and the prince. A little misunderstanding between you has nothing to do with Yanyun County and the Jianhe tribe, so I came here boldly to listen to your instructions, Your Majesty."
What a good thing to say, it directly removed Yanyun County and the Jianhe tribe.
Obviously, he didn't want to make this matter bigger, but wanted to minimize the big issue and treat the small matter as nothing, treating it as a small conflict between the two parties, leaving a lot of room for both Bu He and Xiao Chen, and even more for Quan Quan. Yan Pingqiu's reason for making peace.
"Hahaha, you are quite sharp-tongued. Well, let's discuss the matter and tell you why your Xuan Ming soldiers robbed me of tens of thousands of cattle, sheep and horses!" Bu He said loudly.
"I dare not ask my lord, where did you lose these cattle, sheep and horses?" Baili said with a smile.
"Where did it come from? It was from the west side of Paektu Mountain...Don't try to avoid the important and change the subject!" Bu He felt embarrassed and blushed slightly, "The cattle, sheep and horses are the lifeblood of the people I eat. , if you take it away, we won’t be able to live. It seems like this, do you think I should attack you?"
"Haha, Lord Buhe, you are trying to avoid the important and change the subject! Your cattle, sheep and horses have crossed the border and entered our Xuanming territory for more than 200 miles. Not only are they grazing openly, but they also cut off a large amount of hay! Isn't this an act of banditry? I have endured it for a long time, but your soldiers actually came to my Xuanming City, which is more unbearable!"
Baili Qingyun's tone gradually became stern. Since your good words are not pleasant, let's just open up and argue clearly!
"I only ask you for my cattle and sheep!" Bu He was completely unreasonable.
