Chapter 37 Cessation of the Four Cities

"Mr. Yang Xiu, please enter the hall." Kong Tong, the young wife of the Zhang family, greeted him with a polite smile on her face.

In the hall, the family members were basically all here. After all, it was a marriage between the city-state, which was as grand as a festival. Even the Entry Avenue of Zulong City State was arranged with colorful lanterns.

"Your Highness, the Queen, I haven't seen each other for some time. The soldiers of our Lingxiao City State miss it very much." Yang Xiu took a step and walked into the hall.

Yang Xiu only brought two guards, and the others were waiting outside the palace. Even in the enemy city, Mr. Yang Xiu did not look nervous at all, and was as calm as if he was visiting his neighbor's house.

"The people should be washing and dressing up the queen," said the young lady Kong Tong.

"That's good, that's good. Speaking of which, the obedient Queen of His Highness still surprised me, but the Queen is always the Queen and is willing to give everything for the future of the two major city-states, even if she is just a concubine, hahaha!" Mr. Yang Xiu laughed, his voice spreading in the hall.

The Li family members' faces were not that good-looking.

No matter what, the party who actively proposes peace talks will eventually be a compromise.

I thought Yang Xiu was an envoy with thoughtful etiquette, but I didn't expect that he would feel a little ironic as soon as he entered the hall.

"This is a peace talks. Mr. Yang has read it. There is no other problem. Please sign it." Li Ying also spoke at this time.

Yang Xiu gave a perfunctory gift, which was a respect for the owner of the Li family.

He took the peace letter and quickly scanned the contents.

While reading this peace talks, a soldier with vermilion brunette quickly came and came to Yang Xiu's ear and whispered something.

Yang Xiu held the pen and never touched the ink. He seemed to have no intention of signing it from the beginning, let alone stamping it.

The soldier retreated, and Yang Xiu made an unpleasant expression, first made an ugly tsk sound, then put down the pen in his hand, and said, "Master Li, our Lingxiao City State has sent so many betrothal gifts, which is very sincere. Why is there no statute for cede the four western cities in your peace agreement? I am even reluctant to let me wait to see the female king?"

As soon as these words came out, everyone in the Li family could not hold back.

Ceding the four cities in the west??

The four cities in the west are rich and prosperous, and are the most important territory and city besides the main city of Zulong City. Even if the two city-states continue to fight, the Li family will never cede these four cities to Lingxiao City-state!!

"What is the cedes of the four cities in the west? The conditions we had agreed on before were that Li Yunzi married into your Lingxiao City Ling family as a concubine!" Mrs. Kong Tong said a little annoyed.

This Yang Xiu, who is arrogant, is so crazy.

"Oh, I didn't say it before, but it's time and time. It's not too late to add this condition now, I can wait." Yang Xiu said this, but he moved a chair from the seat.

He placed the chair in the center of the hall, Yang Xiu sat up there, and brought it over from the fruit plate in front of a lady of the Li family, and ate the fruit as if no one else was around.

"Random!! You little envoy, treat our Li family royal courtyard as your own backyard!" A general of the Dragon Shepherd of the Li family said angrily.

"I, Yang Xiu, are representing the Ling family in Lingxiao City, and discussing peace with your head. War is simply decided by some people sitting in our hall. To discuss peace is a matter of a few words, and to meet with weapons is also a matter of a few words. But some small characters not only cannot decide anything, but may have suffered the disaster of massacre and extermination because of saying some stupid words. Do you know that this young general is the former? If not, just shut up!" Yang Xiu laughed, his mouth full of unchewed flesh.

Yang Xiu was wearing a feather crown just now and was polite, but now he is no different from a mountain gangster. He is rude and arrogant!

"May I ask you, why do you suddenly covet the four cities in the west? If you seek peace at such a price, what's the point of starting a war?" At this time, Commander Cheng spoke.

"Master Cheng, head of the Li family, as far as we know, your Dongxu Fortress City has been captured by the violent army. The violent army is probably driving straight into the eastern part of the Lichuan Plain... Your granary cities are going to be looted. Oh, what a bad date." Yang Xiu said, spitting the core and phlegm on the ground.

Li Ying looked solemn.

Mrs. Kong Tong showed even more surprise.

They had just learned the news. As an envoy who had just arrived at Zulong City State from the west, it was impossible for Yang Xiu to know about this!

Someone leaked the news??

The soldier just now told Yang Xiu about this, and then Yang Xiu changed his face?

The question is how he knew, even Zulong City-State's own army had just learned about it.

"Mr. Yang, you just said that war is just a matter of the words of these people in front of our palace. You asked us to ced the city for no reason because you heard about the riots in the east? Let's not talk about the truth or false information. The riots are just a group of greedy people who want to be the masters of the city. It is not difficult to quell the riots. I want to know whether you are smart enough to provoke the war in the west, or whether your master did not intend to make peace at the beginning. If you want the former, I will act like you playing monkeys for everyone to have fun. If it is the latter, then tell your master, we don't mind fighting with you Lingxiao City to the end!" Li Ying kept calm and shocked the arrogant and domineering envoys with these words.

However, Yang Xiu did not listen to these words.

He picked up the fruit plate again, took a bite of crystal grapes, and spitted the skin onto the ground casually.

His ignorance of the head of the family instantly annoyed everyone. The young general of the Dragon Shepherd's Dragon Just now stood up and looked as if he wanted to kill the envoy directly!

Li Ying was calm on the surface, but he was already worried.

If Lingxiao City State sends troops at this time and fights from the west to the rich four cities, Zulong City State will be attacked from both sides, and it is very likely that it will be broken through the defense line and then lose many lands.

The problem is that it is lost, why will the military situation be delayed?

The hall became quiet inexplicably, and the eyes of the Li family couldn't help but fall on Li Ying.

Is Dongxu Fortress City really broken??

The Lichuan Plain is a large plain. Once the violent army enters, it is equivalent to a group of wolves entering the grassland. It takes no idea how long it takes to kill them, and even more, it has to dispatch countless troops.

Moreover, the eastern part of the Lichuan Plain, which was trampled by the violent army, will be in a mess even if it is recovered. There will be no taxes or grains, and the Zulong City State will decline seriously.

"The head of the family did not answer, and he would let the envoy do this. I'm afraid the matter in Dongxu Fortress City is true!" someone whispered.

"Then our Zulong City State is really going to be slaughtered?" Some people in the clan understood the current situation.

The atmosphere suddenly became solemn, and everyone was talking, but they could only wait for the head of the family to decide.

"The head of the family, I still asked me to kill this dog. I think Lingxiao City State has no intention of making peace with us, and he also sent this person to insult us!" The young general just now finally couldn't stand such a rampant person and said angrily.
