At this time, the city of Longdong was decorated with lights and burning incense and bathing, and was full of celebration. After more than a year of rule by the Taiping Army, it returned to the empire. Although the Taiping Army's rule in Longdong did not actually involve too many actions that touched the interests of all classes, it was disgusting from the heart that those gentry from the lowly level from the bottom were difficult to cooperate with them, especially those conservative aristocrats who had deep feelings for the empire.

Now, Li Wufeng, the Northwest Military and Political Governor and Governor of Northern Luzon, who is known as the hero of the empire, personally overcame the army. Even His Majesty's third highman came to Longdong to congratulate him. How could this not make the gentry cheer? Situ Junyan saw the people who came to the streets to welcome him, and such a huge city was swallowed by the Northwest Army without even being sure of him. Although Li Wufeng's attitude is not visible now, with his understanding of Li Wufeng's personality, it is impossible to make the other party withdraw from this land, but it is definitely impossible to make a transaction without paying a considerable price.

While thinking about it, Li Wufeng behind him said, "Your Highness, when you arrive, this is the city guard's mansion. I am here for the time being. Please."

The ancient and clean gate, the five vigorous characters "Longdong City Guardian" in a plaque, look quite old. Even the vermilion paint on the door seems to have peeled off a lot, and the brass door knocker also looks a little dark. Two stone lions are scattering teeth and claws, which is very energetic. This is the temporary command post of the Longdong City Guardian. Li Wufeng.

Seeing that Situ Jun seemed to have something to do, Wufeng didn't say much, and silently accompanied the other party into the main hall. Until the servant brought the hot tea, Situ Jun didn't say a word, as if he was thinking about some difficult problems. The expression on his face was slightly different from the usual coldness, and there was a little more anxiety and hesitation.

There were only two people left in the lobby, and Wufeng was also carefully thinking about the purpose of the other party's arrival. To say that the current situation in the empire was extremely critical, especially the fall of most of the Heshuo area, leaving only a lonely Tianshui in the hands of the empire. In the face of the attack from the two lines, if it were not for the recapture of Longdong, Tianshui would probably be in a difficult situation. Even if the other party had two armies behind the Wuhu area as a backing. After conquering Longdong, he just sent someone to greet the other party politely. The other party actually agreed and said that he wanted to visit Longdong. The visitor was obviously not good, but he could not refuse. However, seeing that the other party had been silent since entering the city, it was obvious that there were some difficult-to-decision problems that bothered the other party and were unable to make a decision, which made Wufeng feel a little uneasy in his doubts.

At this moment, Situ Jun was indeed thinking about an undecided issue. When he made the decision to visit Longdong, he made up his mind to have a good talk with the princes in the western border of the empire and talked with all his heart. He was not a person who likes to avoid reality. Since Li Wufeng has become an important force in the current imperial political forces, if he wants to achieve his goals, he has to deal with this guy, although he also knows that this guy is not a good person.

He felt that he could control the other party, at least that the conditions he had put forward could impress the other party, and he had made full preparations for this, but when the matter was about to come, he became a little hesitant. After all, this was not a trivial matter, and based on the information he had, the guy on the opposite side was obviously inseparable from his brothers. Although he could not fully understand the relationship between his sect, he could not hide the secrets from others. Isn’t he doing this kind of thing the same?

Can you convince the other party? Are the conditions he proposed enough to make the other party moved? Situ Jun repeatedly asked himself in his heart. In the end, he was still not sure, but if he didn't try it, how could he know the result? If he didn't take this step, he was afraid that he would never be at ease and would even worry about this matter when he went to bed. It was not until this moment that Situ Jun made up his mind to talk to the other party in a full manner.

The two people raised their eyes almost at the same time, and they collided tacitly in the main hall. In an instant, both sides seemed to have noticed a certain warm gaze from each other's eyes, a gaze mixed with ambition and other smells. Both sides seemed to have discovered a similar person to them at this moment. Their eyes were suddenly withdrawn, and both sides turned their eyes out the window almost at the same time, as if they wanted to avoid this embarrassing exposure.

The air in the hall seemed to be about to condense and gel, but for a moment, the two of them couldn't find a suitable language to open up this extremely dull situation. Wufeng lowered his head, gently blew away the tea leaves floating in the tea bowl, took a sip, half closed his eyes, and showed a comfortable look on his face, as if he was savoring the fragrance of the tea leaves; Situ Jun stood in the center of the hall, staring at the calligraphy hanging in the middle of the wall, "It's rare to be confused". The four words seemed to be full of unruly spirituality, which was quite a bit of the style of the kingly master. Situ Jun's attention seemed to be completely attracted by this calligraphy.

Time passed by minute by minute. When Wufeng picked up the teacup for the third time and handed it to his mouth, Situ Jun, who had been looking at the wall, suddenly said to himself: "It's rare to be confused, it's rare to be confused. Can this rare to be confused really be confused for the rest of his life? Can everything be solved?"

Wufeng, who was about to taste tea, raised his eyebrows suddenly, and a mysterious smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and said calmly: "It depends on who it is. If it is an hermit who escapes reality, or a person who has no desires and no desires, it may be a good thing. However, from the perspective of a minister, it seems that in the empire, even those who have no desires and no desires will find it difficult to escape the various shackles of the world. If you want to spend the world in a confused way, it is really rare."

Faced with the other party's distorted explanation, Situ Jun slowly turned around and looked directly at the other party's eyes. His eyes were a window of a person's soul. He wanted to see a hint of clue from the other party's eyes, but what disappointed him was that the other party's eyes were so dull, as if they had never said anything, but this was not enough to make him believe in the other party. He had always believed in himself.

"Mr. Li seems to be talking nonsense. Why not make me clearer and clearer?" Situ Jun also showed a faint smile on his face, and even the atmosphere in the hall seemed to be much more active.

"Haha, Your Highness is so serious. How could you need the advice of your minister? It's your minister who has been looking forward to your superiors' explanation." With a cunning smile, Wufeng cleverly pushed the topic back to the other party's side.

He frowned secretly, then smiled and said, "Brother Li is so polite. Since everyone understands people, why should we make some puzzles here? I can openly say that this visit to Longdong is an excuse. The main purpose of my visit to Longdong is to meet Brother Li, hoping to get a satisfactory answer from Brother Li."

Wufeng's face gradually became solemn, and he restrained his usual unrestrained smile: "There are only you and me here. Your Highness might as well spread it out. Although Li Wufeng is not talented, he is willing to have a heart-to-heart conversation with Your Highness. I just don't know if Your Highness trusts Li?"

His heart kept beating. Even though Situ Jun had always been calm and calm, he felt a little dry at this time. The other party's honesty surprised him a little, but he expected that he was smart, so why should he hide too much? That was too tiring. He nodded slowly, Situ Jun slowly calmed down and brewed his words before saying cautiously: "Brother Li is really straightforward. I appreciate this very much. But I am not sure if Brother Li has thought about it carefully?"

"Your Highness's words are inappropriate. Li did not make any promises about the specific matter. Li was thinking that all treaties could only be reached when the conditions of reciprocity were ripe. If the prerequisites were lost, many things would probably be a piece of waste paper even if a black-and-white agreement was reached. What do you think, Your Highness?" After blinking, Wufeng's face did not change and he said calmly.

"Well said! A treaty without prerequisites is immature and unstable. I appreciate this. Brother Li is indeed a straightforward person. I am willing to deal with someone like Brother Li. I can take anything to the table, so as not to get off the table and be lip service. It is too vulgar!" Situ Jun nodded with satisfaction, expressing his agreement with the other party's opinion.

"Since your highness agrees with Li's opinion, I think we already have a common language. Do you know if your highness knows what the prerequisite is?" Wufeng was not confused by the other party's praise, and asked slowly, but his eyes fell on the other party's face.

The face was unstable. Situ Jun knew that the other party was already testing his bottom line. It should even be said that the other party was testing his deepest thoughts. If he could not win the other party's approval, this guy would probably never bet on him. But if he showed all his trump cards, the other party was still in a situation where he could attack and retreat or defend, which pushed himself to an embarrassing level. How should he deal with this?

'Well, prerequisite? "He raised his head slightly, and the expression on Situ Jun's face was a little unstable, but his words were not vague. "Brother Li is afraid that this king can show his strength with some ability, right?"

"Haha, Your Highness is really a wise man. Since Your Highness is so open, if Li hides it, it will seem that Li is too hypocritical." Wufeng smiled and subconsciously rubbed his jaw before saying, "Li is a businessman and is unwilling to do that discount. All his efforts need to be rewarded. To be honest, the other Your Highness have contacted Li, and Li agreed, but this final decision has never been made."
