Da Bong fights more people

Ji Yuan replied calmly:
"Silver gong Song Tingfeng."
Emperor Yongxing went through it in his mind, but he had no impression of the name. His first reaction was that there might be someone behind that ignorant silver gong, who was instructed to sabotage the peace talks.
Naturally, there is no need to hesitate to deal with a silver gong. He was about to speak when Liu Hong, the censor of Zuodu, stood up and said:
"Your Majesty, there must be a misunderstanding."
Behind Ji Yuan, an official in a scarlet robe retorted:
"What does this lord mean, that our lord Ji is talking nonsense?"
Liu Hong ignored it and continued:
"Song Yinluo is loyal and courageous. He fought side by side with Xu Qi'an when he was suppressing the rebels in Yunzhou. After that, he has made great achievements. He was Xu Qi'an's right-hand man when he was in Yinluo. How could he deliberately insult and make things difficult for the Yunzhou mission.
"There must be a reason for this, please investigate thoroughly, Your Majesty."
Emperor Yongxing said indifferently: "What Liu Aiqing said is true, I should find out the situation and give Envoy Ji an explanation."
Check what?No need to check!
Liu Hong's words made it very clear that the Yinluo named Song belonged to Xu Qi'an.
With such a big backer behind him, as long as he doesn't kill or set fire to commit crimes, he can basically sit back and relax.
Naturally, Emperor Yongxing would not insist on antagonizing Xu Qi'an because of such a trivial matter, he would send someone to warn that Yin Gong later, and then transfer him back to the Daganren Yamen.
Ji Yuan was taken aback for a moment, and suddenly understood why that guy dared to be so unscrupulous.
It turned out that his back was against the No. [-] warrior of Dafeng.
"Then thank you, Your Majesty."
He accepted it as soon as it was good, and didn't hold on to it.
Obviously, the little emperor would not offend Xu Qi'an because of this trivial matter, he would only make himself bored by holding on to it.
The six accompanying officials looked at each other in astonishment, no wonder a mere silver gong is so arrogant and domineering.
I'm still dissatisfied in my heart, but today's peace negotiation is a big matter, so I don't care about that little man.
After some chatting and wrangling, Ji Yuanlang said:
"Since the beginning of winter, we, Yunzhou, and Dafeng have been fighting for two months, resulting in disasters for the common people, loss of life, and heavy casualties for the officers and men of both sides. I was ordered to arrive in Beijing to negotiate a peace. His Majesty and all the princes agreed to the peace talks."
The specific process of the peace talks is to set the main tone first, and then Honglu Temple will be in charge of the negotiations to confirm some details. If the matter is particularly important, the Ministry of Rites will also participate in it.
In the process, the daily negotiation process had to be handed over to the emperor for review.
The final result has to be discussed by the emperor and the princes before they can make a decision.
Today, the "main tone" is set, and the framework of the negotiation is first set up.
After Ji Yuan finished his long speech, he said:
"My army in Yunzhou is powerful and has already occupied Qingzhou. Da Fengjian was martyred half a month ago. However, my father has a kind heart, and he can't bear the people to face another war disaster. He is willing to negotiate peace with Da Feng. Da Feng needs to agree to our four conditions."
The owner of Qianlong City has already proclaimed himself emperor in Yunzhou.
The Emperor Yongxing swept behind Ji Yuan, and those Yunzhou officials in official robes took a deep breath and said:
"Envoy Ji, please tell me."
Ji Yuan said:
"First, Dafeng pays 50 taels of silver coins and 60 bolts of silk to Yunzhou every year. It will take effect immediately after the peace talks are over. I will bring back this year's tribute first."
As soon as he finished speaking, Hubu Shangshu jumped out and reprimanded:
"Yellow-mouthed child, open your eyes and talk nonsense.
"50 taels of silver? 60 pieces of silk? You are not afraid of the wind flashing your tongue."
There is a reason for Hubu Shangshu to jump, and the money is nothing in times of peace and prosperity.
But the treasury is empty right now. In order to maintain the operation of the court and military expenditures, it has been struggling to support it, and there is no money or food to relieve the victims.
It takes 50 taels of silver at once, and Yunzhou doesn't even need to fight, just wait for the imperial court to collapse.
This is not a peace negotiation, it is a malicious intention to force Dafeng to death.
For fear that Emperor Yongxing didn't understand "economics", he rashly agreed, so he jumped out to make a fuss first.
Ji Yuan unfolded the folding fan with a "snap" and shook his head:
"The land in the Central Plains is rich, and a mere 50 taels is nothing."
His eyes lit up suddenly, and said:
"Could it be that the imperial court can't even come up with 50 taels of silver?"
Hubu Shangshu's heart trembled, and he said coldly:
"I have a strong national power, how can you, a yellow-haired child, be able to figure it out."
Ji Yuan forcefully asked:
"Oh, if that's the case, it means that Dafeng has no intention of negotiating peace."
This son's sharp teeth and sharp mouth frowned secretly.
1 Whether everything is ready (20000/10)
50 taels is nothing compared to the annual tax revenue of the imperial court, but it also depends on the timing.
To maintain the operation of the imperial court and support military expenditures requires a lot of silver. The imperial court is already "poor and destitute", and it is waiting for the resumption of farming after the spring, so that it can breathe a sigh of relief.
The original intention of the negotiation was to "survive". Yunzhou wanted to force Dafeng to die through the negotiation, and the court would definitely not agree.
Emperor Yongxing said lightly:
"I intend to negotiate peace with Yunzhou. It seems that Yunzhou is unwilling to negotiate peace with the imperial court."
Ji Yuan frowned:
"Your Majesty, this is embarrassing me. My Yunzhou army is as powerful as a rainbow. If the father and emperor did not care about the common people in the world, I am afraid that the army would have come to the city by now. Our sincere peace talks in Yunzhou, in the eyes of the court, it is like giving alms to beggars?"
