I don’t know if the dock at Jingfu Port was deliberately arranged for the negotiation to be held in such a public place. Not only the Lawrence family’s harbor guards were onlookers, there were also many dock workers and civilians in the surrounding area. A meeting.
In full view of everyone, Qin took the quill handed over by the maid and stiffly moved her wrist to soak the quill with ink, and slowly left her signature, Qin Gunnhild, at the end of the scroll.
Youla was a little surprised at this. Everything was exactly as Bai Zhe expected. Qin actually agreed so readily. What on earth did Bai Zhe do during this time...
Bai Zhe held his chin with his hand, and his black and red eyes turned scarlet at some point. His false eyes could naturally see through whether Qin was lying, and he had carefully chosen Jingfu Port as the venue for the negotiation. On the pier, the people around were not only the Lawrence family's Hong Kong Guards, but also the people of Jingfu Port who didn't know what was going on. In addition, Bai Zhe had not taken any action. This time, Youla also took the initiative in the negotiation and was equally thoughtful. Instead, Qin felt inexplicable pressure and tension inside.
Qin herself is the person Bai Zhe admires most in the Knights. Unfortunately, getting her is no less difficult than planning to overthrow the Gunnhild family again. For her to be able to reach the position of leader by virtue of being a woman, she must be extremely powerful and exquisite. As a smart person, how could Qin not know their current situation? After experiencing this monster chaos, the army was in a passive situation due to shortage of medicines. Those who lacked medicines on the battlefield could imagine the situation.
Bai Zhe also knew very well that he had grasped this point. Qin did not dare to let this negotiation break down. The price of failure must be a complete outbreak of war. At this time, Qin would never allow such a thing to happen, no matter what the Lawrence family started. They will probably agree to it no matter what the price is, and they will definitely stabilize the current situation first. But Bai Zhe had anticipated this even last night, which is why today's scene in front of hundreds of Jingfu Hong Kong people forced Qin to sign.
In the eyes of the people of Jingfu Port, Qin, who holds a high position in the Gunnhild family, is also the acting leader of the Knights of the West Wind. If she does not keep the promise she made, then the entire city of Mondstadt will not be worth it. trust. At that time, the people's will will be determined, and the Knights of the West Wind and Gunhild's army will win the war. However, they could not govern Jingfu Port because they were against the will of the people. They might have forced the Lawrence family to die together and blow up their dock and warehouse. In this way, is it worth the fact that the Gunnhild family spent a lot of manpower and material resources and ended up with ruins?
Of course, these are all things for later. What Qin is most concerned about at the moment is if the news of the failure of the negotiations is passed back to the army, what kind of reaction will the wounded people have? Isn't this equivalent to telling them that their hope of living was extinguished by Qin's own hands because of profit? If Jyn did do this, it would be a blow to the reputation of the Knights of the West Wind and House Gunnhild.
As Qin put down the pen, Yura realized later that this was all over? As soon as his body relaxed, a feeling of powerlessness suddenly emerged in his heart like a wave, and he moved his gaze to Bai Zhe aside.
At this moment, Bai Zhe was expressionless, holding the teacup in his hand, looking indifferent, as if everything here had nothing to do with him. Perhaps the surrounding Hong Kong Guards and ordinary people seemed to have no sense of the presence of Bai Zhe and Mebius. It seemed that this negotiation was led by Qin and Yula, but they knew very well the person who made it happen. Who is it?
Under the escort of the Hong Kong Guards, Qin and others slowly stood up. They had reached a consensus that the wounded from the army could enter Jingfu Port for treatment later. When Qin was about to get on the carriage, he looked back at Yula. The scene in front of him made her eyes widen with an expression of disbelief.
Youla threw herself into Bai Zhe's arms with red eyes, while Bai Zhe reached out his hand and stroked her head with a nonchalant expression, as if he were comforting a child.
Looking at Qin who was stunned on the spot, Kaia didn't understand and followed her gaze and looked back. Looking at that scene, she was also stunned and unbelievable. I still remember that when she was in the Knights, Yora was unhappy with Bai Zhe. She even complained to herself that Bai Zhe was an out-and-out bastard because of his chaotic private life. But now...
This couldn't help but make Qin worry about her sister Barbara, thinking that this guy Bai Zhe was not only worried about this, but also worried about her sister Barbara.
It was a pity, but more of an inexplicable resentment.
"let's go."
…
Lawrence Manor, the kitchen is busy today, and the faces of people coming in and out reveal anxiety. Today's dinner is of extraordinary importance.藲忿尛螞网
The vassal families of the Lawrence family were invited to the buffet-style dinner in the backyard of the manor. Although Jingfu Port was ostensibly under the management of Mondstadt, smart people knew that the negotiations that took place in the afternoon were still led by the Lawrence family. The important industries and military power of Jingfu Port are still firmly in the hands of the Lawrence family, and the Gunnhild family's army will not return empty-handed to give Zuqin face. Ten years of back-paying taxes can also make Guenshield's army return empty-handed. The old men of the Emhild family shut up.
Governor Nanke was introducing Bai Zhe to a vassal force. The name World Snake was very unfamiliar, but they all knew more or less what had happened in Jingfu Port recently. In front of them was this young man who could protect the Hong Kong army and the governor was respectful. Men are obviously not someone they can mess with, so they naturally choose to win over them.
They briefly got to know each other. After all, Bai Zhe wanted to include Jingfu Port in his plan, so these people would naturally be useful in the future. Bai Zhe also took the trouble to chat with these flattering people. After saying a sentence, he found Yola surrounded by a group of handsome men. Obviously, as the head of the Lawrence family, Yora must uphold the elegance of a noble. Although Bai Zhe was a little unhappy, he could still understand it, although he was not qualified to blame anything.
Since Youla, as the head of the family, couldn't get away from Bai Zhe, she found Governor Nanke. Bai Zhe's time to stay in Jingfu Port was running out. After solving the problem in Jingfu Port, he also gained the trust of the Lawrence family. Bai Zhe is now Naturally, he was preparing to return to Xingluo Village.
In the busy courtyard, the maid turned on the light in this overly quiet room.
Bai Zhe put his hand on Mebius' head and said, "Governor Nanke, these matters have finally been resolved. It's almost time for me to leave Jingfu Port..."
Governor Nanke's eyes widened and he was obviously a little surprised, but he soon returned to his usual calmness and sighed: "It will happen sooner or later. I really didn't expect that your time is so rushed..."
