Chapter 1576: Is everything ready?(20000/100000) _3


    “Do you have any other choice?”


    When the dagger was revealed, a fall out was a necessary process in a negotiation. The chips in the hands of the stronger party were used to exert pressure.


    It was necessary to cut offnd, and the details of the negotiation were how muchnd to be cut.


    Ji Yuan waved his small silver bone fan and said indifferently, ”


    Your Majesty and the rest of you may not know the details of Jian Zheng’s death that day. Speaking of which, Jian Zheng was indeed very powerful. If the Imperial advisor didn’t invite the legendary divine beast white Emperor of Yunzhou and the head of the earth sect, ck Lotus, to kill Jian Zheng, it would have been as difficult as ascending to heaven.


    He slowly told the process of how the experts besieged and killed the supervisor. Of course, it was all made up, but it was not important. What was important was that through the so-called process, he let Emperor Yongxing and the other officials understand how terrifying the extraordinary experts behind Yunzhou were.


    The members of the royal family, the civil and military officials in the hall all had extremely unsightly expressions. Some had gloomy expressions, some clenched their fists, and some were helpless and depressed.


    Humiliation!


    Emperor Yongxing couldn’t help but pinch his eyebrows and said in a deep voice, ”


    it’s impossible to obtain three provinces. We can discuss this matterter. What’s the fourth condition? ”


    He meant that he had agreed to give up thend, but the quantity had to be discussed.


    The corner of Ji Yuan’s mouth twitched. He had achieved his goal. As of now, this negotiation was going smoothly without too many twists and turns.


    “Don’t worry, Your Majesty. The fourth condition is nothing much. It’s just a bonus.”


    Upon hearing this, Emperor Yongxing’s solemn expression eased a little and he said, ”


    “Just say it.”


    Ji Yuan closed his small silver Fan with a snap.


    “I would like to ask His Majesty for Jian Zheng’s tool refining manual.”


    Compared to the first three conditions, this was indeed a bonus. Although the refining Handbook of a first-grade Warlock was bound to be extremely precious, an item of too high a level was not as important as his personal interests.


    ……………


    He was utterly defeated!


    The first confrontation between the Imperial court and the cloud region’s diplomatic mission had resulted in a crushing defeat.


    This peace negotiation itself was not equal. Da Feng wanted to seek peace, so it was inevitable to cut his own flesh. However, the powerlessness shown by the Lords and Emperor Yongxing in the process still made many middle and low-ranking officials feel cold and disappointed.


    As for those four conditions, in the eyes of some schrs, it was simply humiliating.


    “Cedingnd for peace, what a great humiliation!”


    The Hanlin Academy was the first to cause a ruckus. These schrs, who did not have any real power in their hands, but were still the first ss of the court, gathered at the meridian Gate and began to curse.


    “Fatuous ruler, just the loss of Qingzhou has scared you out of your wits.”


    everyone is bound to die. We schrs would rather die standing than live on our knees.


    “The cloud Prefecture is the Orthodox lineage? Then what is the current imperial family? what are we schrs loyal to? a fatuous ruler who forgets his ancestors.”


    Then, these people were dragged out one by one to be flogged and beaten to death.


    This had indeed intimidated some people, but it could not stop the spread of rumors. After lunch, the Directorate’s students went on strike. Schrs had the sharpest spirit, and some wrote articles to ridicule;Some attacked him in the downtown area, some attacked the Grand Chancellor’s Office, and asked to send a letter of blood to His Majesty …


    What had happened in the morning court was first spread in the officialdom of the capital and the upper ss, and then slowly spread to the lower ss people. By dusk, the rumors that the court had cedednd to seek peace and recognized the rebel army as the Orthodox of the Central ins had spread in the market.


    “When I saw you enter the city yesterday, I knew that the Imperial court wanted peace.”


    “Sigh, of course it’s best if we don’t have to fight. This world is so chaotic … But thinking about it, I still can’t ept it. How could the Imperial court be defeated so easily?st year, when they sent troops to attack the witchcraft cult, it was so glorious.”


    “I’ve heard that even the supervisor is dead. He’s an old immortal in the Directorate of Celestials. Sigh, the heavens are about to change.”


    “Where’s Xu yinluo? Is Xu yinluo going to just watch as the Imperial court cedesnd and seeks peace?”


    Xu yinluo has done his best. Didn’t the Imperial court put up a notice a while ago that Xu yinluo had formed an alliance with the thousand demon Kingdom and the Gu tribe? even if we don’t have the Buddhist League as our ally, we still have other allies.


    sigh, who would have thought that Qingzhou would fall just like that? I have no hope now. In the past, Xu yinluo would always stand up for me.


    ………….


    At the ry station.


    Ji Yuan took out a Dharma artifact and set up a soundproof array formation. After listening to his subordinate’s report, he smiled and said, ”


    it’s quite lively outside. These ignorant bookworms. Forget it, they’re all insignificant people. Our next target is to test Xu Qi ‘an.


    Xu yuanshuang asked, ”


    “How?”


    Ji Yuan turned the small silver bone fan in his hand and said, ”


    “For example, when the negotiations were about to end, I suddenly added a condition and requested a marriage alliance with Da Feng. The partner must be one of the two princesses of Lin ‘an’s huaiqing.”


    Xu Qi ‘an and Lin’ an had an engagement, which he had found out from the people sent by noble Consort Chen.


    Xu yuanshuang frowned and said, ”


    “Are you looking for death?”


    If he really did that, whether the peace negotiations would seed or whether Xu Qian would let him leave the capital alive was another matter.


    Ji Yuanughed.


    “The two princesses are of the same n as me, so the marriage alliance will naturally not be between our bloodline, but Yuan Huai. How do you think Xu Qi ‘an will react? How could he attack his own brother?”


    “He will!” Xu yuanhuai’s expression suddenly changed. This was forcing him to a dead end.


    “I was just joking. Look at how nervous you guys are.”


    Ji Yuan smiled evilly and suddenly sat up straight.


    “Xu Qi ‘an hasn’t shown up yet. We don’t know what he’s up to.


    “Although the supervisor is sealed, he’s still a supervisor. Who knows what kind of trump cards he has left behind? The state preceptor didn’t know either, so he wanted to test Xu Qi ‘an. He wanted to test Xu Qi’ an through the peace talks to understand what the supervisor’s n was.”
