Chapter 790: It's Time

The next day, Shen Liuzhen and Xie Yuan entered the palace together.

After Emperor Ulei withdrew the palace people, he couldn't help but complain to the two of them:

"That Shiyu Financial Village insists on trying to outdo the Southern Dynasty officials in terms of reputation, and wants the Southern Dynasty people to beg him, support him, and let him take advantage of him. What's the use of that?!"

Ulei spread his hands excitedly, walked back and forth in the Nuan Pavilion, and complained:

"Keeping those envoys of the Southern Dynasties in the country, paying for them to eat and drink is one thing, monitoring their every move, and protecting their safety are another thing. Doesn't these require a lot of energy? Just because he is so strong in face , it has been delayed for almost a month, and it has not even started!

Why did you keep them in Wei for so long? Keep them in the country to plant spies and poach my people!"

Ulei became angrier as he spoke, and then he took a long breath to calm down, turned around, sat down in his seat, and said:

"If it weren't for General Xie's special situation, which requires a Xianbei man to stop everyone's suspicions, Liu Zhen, I would have left this job to you, and the trouble wouldn't have turned out like this."

When Shen Liuzhen heard this, he smiled, raised his eyes and said:

"Your Majesty, there is no need to be angry. This is just like playing chess. You don't have to be precise every step. You just need to focus on the present and plan the future well. This is the current situation. Although, because of Mr. Beibu, the peace talks have been delayed. It took a bit long, but...there was an opportunity, but it was just right."

When Ulei heard this, he felt that Shen Liuzhen's words were very classic. He lowered his eyes and thought about it, then smiled and asked:

"What time?"

Shen Liuzhen turned his head and glanced at Xie Yuan. Xie Yuan lowered his eyes and glanced at him solemnly without saying a word.

Shen Liuzhen turned his face, with a cunning light in his sparkling eyes, and said:

"It's time to arrange detailed work in the south."

Ulay was a little unable to turn around and asked: "Now? How can we make peace?"



Once the peace talks started, they were quickly resolved.

During this period, the two parties exchanged contracts, and after reading them, they each made compromises and modifications. Since there was no war, they focused more on future economic exchanges and the promise not to use force easily.

There isn't much to argue about.

On the day the contract was signed, Zhang Qing held his sleeves and looked at the stamped and signed paper in front of him, and then glanced at Xie Yuan, who was sitting opposite.

Because of Shen Liuzhen's reminder, Xie Yuan had been taciturn during her meeting with Zhang Qing. Even when negotiating the contract, she rarely spoke, looking like a mascot sitting in charge.

At this time, she felt Zhang Qing's gaze and gently raised her eyelids to look over, her eyes still cold.

Zhang Qing felt extremely hurt and sighed and said:

"General Xie doesn't miss old friendships so much. It's hard to meet old friends, and we haven't even exchanged a few words with each other."

Xie Yuan lowered his eyes upon hearing this, looking a little guilty.

At this time, Shen Liuzhen intervened in time:

"Hey... A Yuan has not been good at speaking since he was a child. I have to talk to you so much. Isn't it good?"

Upon hearing this, Zhang Qing focused his eyes on Shen Liuzhen and snorted coldly with unknown meaning. He thought to himself, how can you have any old feelings for this guy? As long as you are noble and don't cheat me, I will thank God.

He turned back to Xie Yuan and said solemnly:

"General Xie, Your Majesty said that it was because of you that he signed the peace contract with Wei. He does not want to be your enemy. But the door of Chen will always be open to you. If one day, you change your mind, Feel free to come back, we will welcome you all the way."

Shi Yu Caizhuang, who signed as the main envoy, raised his eyes and saw that Zhang Qing had left him again, so blatantly wooing people from Wei in front of him. He snorted with a black face and said:

"Envoy Zhang, are you going too far by wooing officials from Wei State in front of me?"

Zhang Qing turned his head and smiled stupidly at Shi Yu Financial Village, gentle and shameless, somewhat similar to Shen Liuzhen.

It’s just that he doesn’t have Shen Liuzhen’s pretty face, nor does he look good when he smiles, so he looks so shameless:

"I'm just kidding, Mr. Caizhuang, you don't have to take it seriously, you don't have to take it seriously, hahaha..."



The day that Zhang Qing left with the delegation, the weather was cold and foggy. It was obviously daytime, but it was always as dim as dusk. It made people feel confused and unconscious, as if everyone was no longer in the world. It's like arriving in the underworld.

In the lobby of Tingwei Mansion.

Lingxiu was interrogated and knelt in the lobby, but Lord Tingwei still didn't come. All the government officials had to stand ready in the lobby, lining up on both sides with big eyes and small eyes, waiting.

The leading yamen servant couldn't stand the haze of the weather, so he cheered up while waiting.

Unexpectedly, his beating seemed to be contagious, causing all the government officials to stand next to each other and beat each other non-stop.

Except for Lingxiu, who was kneeling with her head lowered, as silent as a log, no one else was spared.

Finally, the leading yamen servant couldn't bear it any longer. He took back his hand covering his mouth, opened his mouth with a ferocious expression and breathed again, saying:

"Sir, what's going on? You're not asleep in the back hall, are you? You've been waiting for almost half an hour and you still haven't come? I'll hurry him up."

As he spoke, he held the sword at his waist and ran all the way to the backyard.

At this time, Lord Tingwei Zhou Changgeng held up the candlestick in his hand and walked back and forth in his room, looking here and there, touching here and there, and sighing constantly, almost crying.

He kept thinking about the conversation with Shen Liuzhen in his mind:

He asked Shen Liuzhen in shock:

"Why did you burn my house? There are so many rooms in Tingwei Mansion. You can burn the prison or the firewood room. Why do you burn the place where I live? Where do I live?"

That guy's understatement at that time, coupled with his delicate and endearing face, really made me want to be punched:

"There was no one else in your room, and no one saw it when it burned. You can say that you fell asleep and accidentally pushed down the candlestick and started the fire. Do you want others to see you, Lord Ting, holding the candlestick?" Setting fire to your own government offices everywhere?"

When Zhou Changgeng heard that his chest felt stagnant, he was extremely resistant, so he had to find another way to say:

"Then can I just send someone else there? Why do I have to be the one to set the fire?"
