Hearing Caiyun's rhetorical question, Princess Changping fell silent, and the whole room fell into silence, and you could hear a needle drop.
After a long time, Princess Changping sighed slowly and said: "In business, whether we can agree or not, it's just a price."
"It's not that Da Qian doesn't want to cooperate with me in the Western Jin Dynasty, it's just that he doesn't want to pay a high price."
"In that case, I'll wait for the price to drop."
Hearing this, Caiyun was quite unbelievable.
If she remembers correctly, since she followed Princess Changping, this is the first time that the other party has been defeated!
Still in a man!
…
The next morning, Princess Changping and a group of people from the Western Jin Dynasty left the post house early and headed towards the palace.
Not long after, Liu Yu and Li Changkong, who were in Nuange, received the news that Princess Changping requested an audience.
In response, the monarch and his ministers looked at each other and smiled, feeling that everything was under control.
After a while, Princess Changping arrived at the Nuan Pavilion. She looked at Liu Yu, who was sitting on the dragon throne, and Li Changkong, who was sitting on her left. She took a deep breath, bowed and saluted, and said, "I have met His Majesty the Emperor Daqian."
"Your envoy will be exempted from the gift!"
"May I ask why the ghost came here this time?" Liu Yu asked, pretending to be surprised.
When Princess Changping heard this, she snorted coldly: "Your Majesty is probably well aware of why I am here."
"In that case, let's talk about it." Liu Yu waved his hand and stood up, his robes rustling.
"To be honest, I want your 100,000-strong army!"
"But the price is subject to discussion!"
"Except for the land west of Hexi and the general who conquers the west, your envoy can ask for the rest of the price at will."
Liu Yu said it very generously, but Princess Changping sneered in her heart.
If we could really open it at will, we wouldn't be in this situation today!
"Three million stones of grain and grass, three hundred thousand horses of brocade, plus fifty tons of iron ore!"
Princess Changping expressed her psychological price.
After Liu Yu heard this, he smiled and shook his head, saying: "Two million stones of grain and grass, two hundred thousand horses of brocade, and thirty tons of iron ore. In this way, I want these one hundred thousand reinforcements!"
"Haha, your majesty, why don't you go and grab it?" Princess Changping said sarcastically.
"Alas, your envoy does not know something. I, Da Qian, have experienced the Yizhou rebellion and Liu Jing's rebellion. Now the treasury is really empty. This is all my sincerity!"
Liu Yu sighed. This look really looked like an old farmer who cared about his own food, which was completely different from the image of the emperor who just scolded Fang Qiu.
Princess Changping couldn't help but frown slightly when she saw this.
He can hold it up and put it down. This king of Daqian really has no airs of emperor at all, and he is quite like the great ancestor of Daqian!
It seems that he is also a powerful master, and he may have underestimated the other party before.
"Yes, but I have a request!"
"Your Majesty, please speak!"
"Uncle Anbei from your country needs to be my guest in the Western Jin Dynasty for a year!" Princess Changping stared at Liu Yu with bright eyes.
When Liu Yu heard this, his brows suddenly frowned, and his face looked a little unhappy.
Good guy, you are going around and around, aren't you still trying to get Lao Li's idea?
However, just as he was about to refuse, he heard Princess Changping say decisively: "I'm just going to be my guest in the Western Jin Dynasty. If Uncle Anbei wants to come back after one year, he can come back at any time!"
"Alternatively, Your Majesty, if you can pay two million stones of grain, two hundred thousand horses of brocade, and thirty tons of iron ore in one lump sum, this request can be given up!"
"If we want to pay in installments, I, the Western Jin Dynasty, have to have something to look forward to, right?"
As soon as these words came out, Liu Yu suddenly lost his voice.
Princess Changping was right. There were so many supplies, and Da Qian was still fighting against Bei Yuan. It was almost impossible to get them all at once, and they would have to be paid in installments.
In order to prevent Da Gan from regretting it, there is nothing wrong with having a hostage.
But why did it happen to be Lao Li?
For a time, Liu Yu was entangled.
When Princess Changping saw this, she did not urge him, but stood aside and waited patiently.
This is already the lowest price in her mind!
If Da Gan couldn't satisfy even this, she would turn around and leave without saying a word!
Make other plans! He will even swallow the big Qingzhou in one mouthful!
Li Changkong looked at the situation on the field and gradually understood. He stood up and said: "Your Majesty, there is no need to be so entangled."
"I have heard for a long time that the Western Jin Dynasty is a treasure of natural resources and a place of outstanding people. The rumors must be true that such a proud child as Princess Changping could be born, so I just happened to go and have a look."
Hearing this, Liu Yu turned to look at Li Changkong, his brows full of confusion.
Now Li Changkong is his right-hand man. With him here, he will not panic in any decision he makes, and he will always have confidence.
Now when he heard that Li Changkong was leaving, the young emperor felt panicked for the first time.
"Please come back, your envoy. This matter is of great importance. We, the monarch and our ministers, need to negotiate a lot before we can give your envoy a reply." Li Changkong looked at Princess Changping and said.
"Then I will wait for the good news." Princess Changping smiled, then turned and left.
"Old Li, what do you think? I said I was going to the Western Jin Dynasty as a guest, but can I come back?" Liu Yu couldn't wait to ask as soon as Princess Changping left.
When Li Changkong heard this, he nodded affirmatively and said, "Of course I can come back!"
"The three kingdoms in the east are fighting each other, and the situation is complicated! There is also Bei Yuan, who is standing outside the pass, watching with eager eyes!"
"If the Western Jin Dynasty dares to kill me at this juncture, then it will be a deadly enmity against me!"
"In this way, after the battle of Shanhaiguan is over, His Majesty will definitely attack Jin with all his strength!"
"And Beiyuan just suffered a defeat from my Daqian, but had to go south again. Think about it, who will Tuoba Tianhan point the finger at?"
"If this is the case, then even if the Western Jin army is extremely capable, it will be hard for them to escape the fate of a exiled king!"
"Besides, I'm not going alone, so you have to give me Li Jibei as my bodyguard!"
"At the same time, I sent a letter to the king of the Western Jin Dynasty, stating that after Daqian has repaid certain supplies, he needs to return them to his subordinates!"
"If we don't return it, no matter whether I run away or your Majesty raises his troops to attack the Jin Dynasty, he will be regarded as a master with a great reputation!"
"No one can say anything!"
"In this case, I would like to live in a prison temporarily and work hard for me in exchange for a rare opportunity to recuperate and some supplies. Wouldn't it be a big profit?"
After hearing Li Changkong's words, Liu Yu's worries had mostly disappeared, but he still frowned slightly and said hesitantly: "That's what I said, but the plan can't keep up with the changes. If something happens then..."
However, before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by Li Changkong: "Your Majesty, break it off!"
"You and I both know what the best option is right now."
At this point, Princess Changping could no longer give in.
Otherwise, it is not doing business, but robbing.
