Song Qingwen looked calm and said quickly: "Your Majesty captured Wan Yanming alive and wiped out countless Jin Kingdom armies. What are your next plans? What can the Blood Moon Organization that I am responsible for do?"
Zhao Shan smiled and said: "Miss Song returned to the Kingdom of Jin and brought people from the Blood Moon Organization to spy on the news. If the power to redeem Wan Yanming prevails, don't worry about it."
"If the forces that don't save Wan Yan Ming gain the upper hand, let the Blood Moon Organization kill a group of people who don't rescue Wan Yan Ming."
"If the Kingdom of Jin is fully prepared for war and wants to start a war with me again, you don't have to worry about it, so as not to affect yourself."
Zhao Shan said: "It's either war or peace, it depends on what they choose."
Song Qingwen asked: "Is that all?"
Zhao Shan nodded and said: "Even if it's just these, it's not easy. Miss Song is alone, so you must be careful when you go back. I would rather you make no progress than get into trouble."
Song Qingwen's heart trembled.
Deep in my heart, I suddenly felt a feeling of being cared for, a little joy and a little flutter.
Unexpectedly, Zhao Shan didn't care about the mission, but about her safety.
Song Qingwen did not give in, and said: "If I really fail to complete the task, your Majesty, don't call me a waste, don't call the Blood Moon organization incompetent."
Zhao Shan waved his hand and said: "I have no precedent of scolding women when I do things, and you are not a part of the plan. The real plan is for Xiao Li to go back with Wan Yanming's letter to promote peace with the Kingdom of Jin. It is Xiao Li's notice of departure. People from the Kingdom of Jin.”
Song Qingwen said concisely and concisely: "I understand, farewell!"
Zhao Shandao: "Go slowly and don't see me off!"
Song Qingwen turned around and walked out. Just as she reached the door of the camp, Zhao Shan's voice came again: "Wait a minute!"
Song Qingwen turned around with a somewhat expectant look in her eyes and asked, "What other orders does your Majesty have?"
Zhao Shan urged: "Be sure to ensure safety."
Song Qingwen smiled sweetly and said: "I am just an assassin, what is your Majesty worried about?"
Zhao Shan said: "If you are injured or in trouble, I will feel sorry for you."
Song Qingwen raised her eyebrows.
Suddenly, a trace of panic flashed through her heart, she turned around quickly and left quickly without looking back.
Zhao Shan watched Song Qingwen leave, gathered his thoughts, and continued to devote himself to many affairs in the army.
With Wan Yanming as a prisoner, Zhao Shan does not need to worry about the war for the time being. He can first reorganize Yunzhong County and Bingzhou.
While Zhao Shan was taking inventory of the rear, Xiao Li returned northward with Wan Yanming's letter.
Xiao Li returned to the Imperial Capital of the Kingdom of Jin and first summoned Wanyan Chen, the commander of the imperial army who was guarding the imperial capital. He was a clan member of the Kingdom of Jin and a direct descendant of Wanyan Ming.
Xiao Li ordered Wanyan Chen to impose martial law, and then arranged for people to summon Wanyan Yu, the crown prince of the Jin Kingdom, and the leaders of various ministries of the Jin Kingdom.
Under the imperial power system of the Jin Kingdom, the six ministers and the prince's subordinate officials in the East Palace all served the emperor of the Jin Kingdom.
There is no county magistrate in the Jin Kingdom.
Just tribes.
The real power faction in the Jin Kingdom is not the ministers of various ministries, but the tribal leaders of the Jin Kingdom.
These are the foundation and pillars of the Jin Kingdom.
Xiao Li saw the prince Wanyan Yu and the leaders of Yeluqing, Tang Kuo'an, Heshi Liezhou, Wugu Lunqin, Pu Chazheng and other ministries gathered together, and quickly said: "Your Majesty personally led the army south, and was killed in the clouds." According to the emperor's plan, General Yelu Baoji died, the army was defeated, and His Majesty became a prisoner."
Wow! !
There was an uproar in the king's tent.
Wanyan Yu's expression also changed drastically.
At any other time, Wanyan Ming would have had three advantages and two disadvantages, and Wanyan Yu might have been happy because it was his turn to take power. Now Wanyan Ming has become a prisoner, the entire army has been lost, Yelu Baoji has also died on the battlefield, and the Jin Kingdom's overall strength has suffered a huge loss.
The situation is also unprecedentedly complex.
Wanyan Yu couldn't be happier and asked quickly: "Prime Minister, you are back. Do you have any instructions from your father?"
Xiao Li did not hide the fact that he was a prisoner. He first said that he was also a prisoner, then took out Wan Yanming's letter and said, "Zhao Shan needed someone to come back to deliver His Majesty's letter before he released me. At present, Zhao Shan The good condition is to require us to compensate for the losses in order to redeem His Majesty."
Wanyan Yu asked: "What are the conditions?"
People from other departments looked over one after another with eager eyes.
Xiao Li quickly said: "Zhao Shan's condition is to compensate 300,000 taels of gold, 5 million taels of silver, 30,000 war horses, and a thousand high-quality stallions."
Wow! !
There was an uproar in the king's tent again.
Everyone was shocked.
Wanyan Yu was the first to sit still and said in a deep voice: "Prime Minister Xiao, Emperor Zhao wants three hundred thousand taels of gold, as well as countless silver and war horses. Such conditions are really too harsh."
Xiao Li sighed in his heart.
Wanyan Yu is a prince and his status is sensitive. Why should he express his position in such a hurry?
If you want to object, it's not the prince's place to express his position.
Xiao Li didn't reveal what he was thinking. He obeyed the urgent need. He looked at the others and asked, "What do you think?"
Yeluqing served as a Taiwei in the court, commanded the army of the Jin Kingdom, and was also the chief of the Yelu tribe.
Yelu Baoji, who died in battle, was also Yelu Qing's junior.
Yeluqing stroked his gray beard and said slowly: "Emperor Zhao's conditions are too harsh. I have one attitude. If your Majesty wants to save him, we can't give him so much money. We don't have so much money to give to Emperor Zhao."
Tang Kuo'an was fifty years old. He was the patriarch of the Tang Kuo tribe and the Minister of Household Affairs of the Jin Kingdom.
With Yeluqing's statement, Tang Kuo'an expressed his position: "I agree with the Taiwei's opinion. The Jin Kingdom is already having a difficult time this year. Once more compensation is paid to compensate the horses, it will make things worse."
Xiao Li looked at He Shi Liezhou, Wu Gu Lunqin and Pu Chazheng again and asked, "What are your opinions?"
Heshi Liezhou said: "Your Majesty lost a battle, and we can win it back. Now that you surrender to Zhao Shan, where will the Jin Kingdom's face go? I suggest recruiting troops to go to war, beat Zhao Shan hard, and then take your Majesty back." .”
Wu Gulunqin said in a deep voice: "We have more people and less food. After paying compensation, it will be even worse. This year will be difficult. If we continue to fight, we will be defeated. The lowest level of the untouchables will die in the battle, and the pressure will be reduced. If we win, we will be defeated." It would be easier if we could ask Da Gan to compensate."
Pu Chazheng said: "I am sure that Zhao Shan dare not kill His Majesty. Killing people will not help, and it will also cut off the way back."
Xiao Li asked: "Do you all agree to start a war?"
Everyone nodded in unison.
Xiao Li looked at Wanyan Yu again and asked, "Where is His Highness the Crown Prince?"
Wanyan Yu agreed to start a war in his heart, but he learned his lesson and said, "I will obey the arrangements of your ministers."
Xiao Li knew that in the eyes of the Jin Kingdom's tribes, interests were fundamental, and this was the reason for the war. He had no objection, nodded and said: "If you want to fight Da Gan decisively, we will fight bigger."
Wanyan Yu asked: "Why is it bigger?"
Xiao Li replied: "The people who are hostile to Daqian are not only our Kingdom of Jin, but also Xiliang and Northern Wei. We have brought them in. I don't believe it. Are the Emperors of Xiliang and Northern Wei so cowardly?"
Wanyan Yu's eyes lit up and he praised, "As expected of Prime Minister Xiao, he is very resourceful."
Yeluqing and others also agreed.
Everyone agrees.
Xiao Li unified his opinions and began to discuss specific plans and layouts, and also mobilized troops from various ministries of the Jin Kingdom to participate in the war.
When the Jin Kingdom was mobilizing, Song Qingwen also returned to the Jin Kingdom.
With the help of the Blood Moon Organization, she found out that the Kingdom of Jin was unwilling to compensate and wanted to go to war. Song Qingwen didn't know Xiao Li's intention to unite Northern Wei and Xiliang, but the Jin Kingdom wanted to continue fighting, which was enough for her to report.
Song Qingwen was worried about Zhao Shan and chose to stay in the Kingdom of Jin for further investigation. At the same time, she arranged for someone to send the news out so that Zhao Shan could prepare early.
