The Red Mansions Across the Four Seas

Chapter 615 I misread them at the beginning

On the 21st of the first month of the second year of Tianshun, Li Guozhong, king of Xining, and Luo Qihua, a bachelor of the Military Aircraft Department, arrived in Shengjing.

Stayed at the Fengtianfu posthouse that night, and prepared to negotiate the next day.

In the evening, Luo Xingshan, Yin of Fengtian Prefecture, came to the posthouse to discuss the procedure and participants of the next day's negotiation.

When just talking about the procedure, the two sides had differences.

The focus of the question is on the etiquette of meeting.

The Tianshun court insisted that Chang'an and Jia Min meet each other as courtiers.

The reason is very simple, now is the Tianshun Dynasty, Jia Min and Chang'an are courtiers and rebels.

Luo Xingshan insisted that the king of Xining and Luo Qihua meet as courtiers. The reason is also very simple. Chang'an is Princess Dade, and San Francisco is a rebel, and the courtiers are plotting to usurp the throne.

In fact, they are fighting over who is orthodox.

The two sides refused to give in to each other, and in the end they did not argue for a result.

Disagreement appeared again on the personnel of the two parties participating in the negotiations.

Chang'an plans to have Chang'an, Beijing Jingwang and Ji Dashi come forward, and Li Guozhong asks Jia Min to come forward.

Luo Xingshan said that Jia Min has made it clear that he will not participate in the negotiations because he is not one of the parties, but a volunteer army.

Standing on the standpoint of justice, he only beats whoever is not pleasing to the eye.But Li Guozhong insisted on seeing Jia Min.

The final result is that the formal negotiations have not yet started, and they cannot talk together procedurally.

Luo Xingshan didn't come the next day, and he didn't come the third day either.In the end, Li Guozhong couldn't hold his breath anymore, and he took the initiative to find Luo Xingshan, agreed to Chang'an's request, and then started the negotiation.

As for the terms of the negotiations, the positions of the two sides are also far apart.

Chang'an's condition is that Han Tiandou abdicates, disbands the San Francisco army, withdraws the San Francisco, and cuts off the titles of the Three Kings.All civil and military officials down to Han Tiandou will be imprisoned pending a thorough investigation.

The conditions of the Tianshun court are much simpler.It is to ask Jia Min and Chang'an to disband their troops and accept recruitment.Jia Min can serve as Minister of the Ministry of Industry, and Chang'an can be named the Princess.Other civil and military officials shall be appointed according to their original grades.

Such conditions were unacceptable to both parties, and the negotiations reached a deadlock.

King Xining and Luo Qihua asked to see Jia Min, but Jia Min didn't see them at all.He also asked to see Jia Lian and Chen Yeqing, but they didn't see each other.

Seeing that no one from the volunteer army came out to meet, King Xining and Luo Qihua wanted to meet Shaq, Wadagas, and Xi Mairui from North Wendura, and wanted to divide and disintegrate Jia Min's team by negotiating peace with them separately.

Naturally, these three people did not see them either.

Unlike the official representatives who repeatedly encountered obstacles, Jiao Xing, who came here as a private person, went relatively smoothly.

After waiting for three days, I finally saw Daiyu.

"Jiao Xing, I didn't want to see you at first. I remembered that in Suzhou, you were respectful to my father and me at my house, so I reluctantly saw you. I don't tell you why you came. I advise you to Don't have any extravagance."

Although Daiyu met Jiao Xing, she was only polite, without any affection.

"Miss Lin, my master is also desperate. Now I regret it very much. I just hope that for the sake of Jia's lineage, please speak kindly to Fourth Master Min and let my master go."

"Jiao Xing, I also know that you are in a difficult situation. But I really can't help you with this matter. Fourth Brother Min spent so much thought and energy on this mobilization, just to avenge his sister and uncle. You said he would let Jia go. Sir? It is he who wants to let go, the ancestors and the people in the mansion, can they let go? How will Fourth Brother Min explain to his soldiers?"

"Thousands of mistakes are all our faults. The girl can speak with Fourth Master Min, and I ask the girl to recite the past love, and ask Fourth Master Min to hold his hand high."

"Jiao Xing, don't say I won't go to intercede for you, even if I go, it's useless. Brother Min often doesn't listen to the words of the ancestors, uncles and aunts, can you still listen to us? Go back Well, it's no use seeing anyone."

As the two were talking, Zicuckoo came in with Yinger.

"Miss Lin, my girl asked me to pass on a message. After Jiao Xing finished speaking with you, you can go see her."

Yinger said coquettishly.

"Jiao Xing, Miss Bao saw you, you go. I won't tell you anything here."

Jiao Xing didn't have much hope, so she had to go with Ying'er.

Seeing Baochai, Jiao Xing knelt down and kowtowed.

"Jiao Xing, get up. I didn't want to see you at first, but you came all the way, and you didn't give up when we didn't see each other. It seems like we don't miss the old relationship at all. Seeing that you knew a little bit in the past For the sake of things, just meet with the previous one and make things clear."

"I also ask Miss Bao to speak kindly to Fourth Master Min, and let my master go. If it doesn't work, please recommend Miss Bao, and I will kowtow to Fourth Master Min."

"Jiao Xing, you should give up on this idea. The fourth brother Min didn't even see King Xining and Luo Qihua, so he still sees you? If it's your own business, we can do it for you. After all, Xiangling is in my house , you came from the Zhen family again, so you have to remember some old love."

"But you came here for the affairs of Jia Yucun, and no one can help you with this matter. Jia Yucun is full of crimes and unforgivable crimes, so you should not have any extravagant hopes. You should plan for yourself. When the time comes, I can intercede for you and leave you with a way out."

"Also, you go back and tell Jia Yucun, tell him not to have bad ideas about the house and servants in the mansion. If Fourth Brother Min returns to the imperial capital in the future, he will find that there are no plants and trees in the mansion, and the servants will be hurt every bit." , even if you go to the ends of the earth, I will never let you go."

"Jiao Xing, I've explained everything to you, so you can go."

After Baochai finished speaking, she got up and left without waiting for Jiaoxing's reaction.

Jiao Xing was helpless, knowing that it would be useless to say anything, so she had to leave in dismay.

Luo Qihua was originally unwilling to come to Shengjing this time.

Although he came to negotiate, he knew very well in his heart that he had nothing to discuss with others.

Jia Min defeated the Mogu people, the general trend of the world has been settled, and there is no power that can stop him from capturing the imperial capital.

But the emperor asked him to come, and he had to come.After all, his wealth and life are still in the hands of the emperor.

Jia Min, who had always wanted to see them, did not see them at all now, which made Luo Qihua and Li Guozhong feel both angry and helpless.

Li Guozhong had just complained to him and left, and Luo Qihua was just about to take a rest when the master came in.

"Shi Weng, there are two old friends coming to meet each other."

"Two old friends? Who are they? I don't have any old friends here."

"Scholar Luo, you are really forgetful. Could it be that you don't even remember us?"

Two people broke in, followed by five or six tall, burly people with faces as dark as charcoal.

It was Hua Yusheng and Guo Qisheng who broke in, and six black Mamluk soldiers followed them.

"Who are you, how dare you barge in? Is this how Chang'an treats guests?"

Luo Qihua didn't remember that he had such two old friends.

"Scholar Luo, even at this time, you are still so majestic. Naturally, you don't remember us, but we will always remember you all our lives.

Guo Qisheng mocked.

"Who are you, and what do you want from me?"

"Lord Luo, do you still remember the case of Xinyou's examination?"

The Xinyou court case?
Luo Qihua recalled it, it seemed that it was a trivial matter a long time ago.

He has experienced countless things in his life, such a small thing, how can he keep it in his heart all day long.

However, he still remembered this matter.

"Lord Luo's family is a high-ranking official with a lot of money. They turned their hands into clouds and turned their hands into rain. The Xinyou case may be just one of the countless bad things you have done. But do you know that for us, this case has ruined everything. We will live forever. Hahaha, now the retribution has finally come."

Hua Yusheng said bitterly.

"Who are you, and what is the purpose of coming here?"

"Lord Luo, do you still remember Shen Youshan, Huayusheng, Guo Qisheng?"

"Who are you?"

"I am Hua Yusheng, the Hua Yusheng who was framed by you for cheating in the examination room and exiled to Bukui."

Hua Yusheng's face became a little fierce.

"I am Guo Qisheng. I was fooled by you, joined forces with you, helped the evil, framed others, and was almost silenced by you. You silenced Shen Youshan. I didn't expect that I am still alive, right? Hahaha, I Finally, I have waited for this day. I can see with my own eyes the day when your Luo family is destroyed."

"Where did the bold lunatics come from, dare to be so rude to the envoys of the Celestial Dynasty, come here, throw them out."

A few soldiers were actually by the side all the time, but when they saw the rifles in the hands of the six black soldiers, they all stood where they were, and no one dared to step forward.

"Master Luo is still so majestic. Don't worry, you are envoys today, and we will not do anything to you. We are here today to inform you that your end is coming. When we reach the imperial capital in the future , we must seek justice for those who were framed by you back then."

"I don't know you guys, and the Xinyou test case back then has nothing to do with me. What justice do you want, you found the wrong person."

"Hehehe, Mr. Luo is very self-cultivated. Don't say that we still have evidence, but there is no evidence. Just because you colluded with the inside and outside of San Francisco and belonged to the puppet dynasty, you can kill you. From today From now on, you can count the days to live, you won't live long. Let's go!"

Hua Yusheng said, pulling Guo Qisheng away.

"Bold lunatic, how dare you be so rude."

Luo Qihua grabbed a teacup and slammed it to the ground.

"Shiweng calm down, there is no need to be as knowledgeable as these villains."

"Hua Yusheng and Guo Qisheng, I think of these two people, I really regret not putting them to death."

"They are at Jia Min's place now, that's why they dare to come here to humiliate Shiweng on purpose."

"Jia Min, Jia Min, it's Jia Min again."

Luo Qihua sat down on the chair weakly.

"Shiweng, now that Jia Min's power has been established, it is useless to recruit security, so let's think about the way out earlier."

"Master, why haven't I thought about it? It's just that I'm besieged on all sides now, what is the way out? Although the world is big, where can I go? If I leave, how will this family be settled? I hate San Francisco, it's so unbearable." Hi, I really misjudged them at the beginning."

Li Guozhong, king of Xining, came uninvited and sat down silently.

The high-spirited look in the past is no longer there, and his expression is bleak, as if he has aged a lot all of a sudden.

Silently drank a cup of tea and opened his mouth slowly.

"Lord Luo, it's useless to stay here any longer. Let's go back and report to the emperor tomorrow."
