The Famous Detective of the Red Mansions

Chapter 945: Restlessness

[These days I have troubles again, and I went to the grave with my wife in turn. Adjust it, and double watch tomorrow. 】

   Sun Shaozong originally planned to show his muscles when the two sides negotiated, facing the troubles of the Emperors and Ministers of the Kingdom of Hou Jin.

  Whoever believed that for a few days, U Pu Duanheng only summoned Xu Furen alone, and refused to let him accompany him into the palace, so that all the previous ideas were completely useless.

   Fortunately, around the New Year, Sun Shaozong has already established a great prestige in Jianzhou City, and with Xu Furen’s ingenuity, he alone is enough for this tricky matter.

   Of course, Xu Furen returns to the post every day, avoiding having to repeat the negotiation process between the two parties to Sun Shaozong in a brief and concise manner.

   At present, it seems that the sincerity of the two parties' peace talks is still a major premise, at least for the time being, to stop peace. A consensus was reached on the first day.

   However, on some additional conditions, the two sides remained deadlocked.

   For example, Da Zhou hoped that the two sides could exchange prisoners of war and release the detained people.

   However, most of the Jurchens captured by Da Zhou have already been tortured by canonical punishment. This so-called exchange is just to make it sound. In fact, it is to let Houjin unilaterally release all Han slaves.

   This is naturally unacceptable to Jurchens.

   For another example, Houjin hopes to establish several mutual markets near Xingcheng.

   The mutual market was nothing, but the Jurchen not only asked Dazhou not to restrict the import of ironware, but also asked Dazhou officials to come forward and purchase some special products in Liaodong at a premium to ensure that the two sides could reach a trade balance.

   This is too much.

   Although it is a postponement, in the face of a small country, the official has not even admitted to make such a concession, how can the people of Zhou, who have always publicly advertised imperialism, be able to accept it?

  There are also other things such as the delimitation of the borders of the two sides, the official name of each other, the etiquette of the exchanges, the relationship between Houjin and Waqi, etc...

   In short, under the same general policy, there are many differences between the two sides.

   Zhou Guo, left and right, want to delay time, after going through the war in the south, spare no effort to attack Houjin.

   Then Jin was because of heavy snow, and it was impossible to conduct large-scale military operations before the end of March.

   So I didn't worry about it in either of these two strokes. I grind it back and forth like a see-saw. After a few days, I didn't see any progress.

   It is estimated that I can talk about the general context in the first month, even if it is quite good.

  Sun Shaozong doesn’t matter. He is a dynamic and calm temperament. Apart from some unaccustomed food, he is idle in the post every day, and he has the right to be a cat in winter.

   An accompanying guard, but quite a restless master.

   Some time ago, there were always jurchens who didn't open their eyes to make trouble at the door.

   can play from the fifth day of the day, everything has become calm and calm, and even real girls who are not girls would rather detour long distances than go through the gate of the post house.

   I feel uncomfortable after this time.

   A few days ago, Harlu’s wife had a high-pitched voice, and the people who scolded at the door became sulky, and then the people who called inside the door were full of evil fire.

   has been a bachelor for more than a month, when this anger comes up, where can he stay?

   So in the past few days, To Fengxin came forward first, and wanted to take time off to go ‘hanging around’. After being suppressed by Sun Shaozong, he tried to persuade him to get a few women to come in and serve.

   said he was helping with the washing and cooking, but Sun Shaozong casually tried, and the requirements of ‘good preparation and smoothness’ and ‘thumping of chest and buttocks’ were filled with ears.

   To put it plainly, it's not just the lower part of the body.

   It stands to reason that in this place of suspicion, more is worse than less, Sun Shaozong should refuse.

   But Sun Shaozong is not unreasonable. Besides, he hasn't set an example by himself, so it's even harder to refuse strictly.

   Therefore, after careful consideration on this day, I thought about discussing with Xu Furen to see if I could ask a few North Korean women from the Jurchens. The reason why I designated North Koreans was naturally a Han woman who did not want to be humiliated or looted.

  …………

   is the evening of the day.

   Counting the hour, Xu Furen should also be back from the inner city. Sun Shaozong ordered people to place the food on the kang table in the backyard, and blanched a pot of aging, just waiting to chat with him over wine.

   It's a thousand-mile journey, it is naturally impossible to bring a cook, so the daily meals are really lackluster, and there is only one advantage.

   But the wine is really good. The 40-year Laojiao flower sculpture was originally the spoils of a certain Jurchen nobleman, but in the bitter and cold place outside the Guan, everyone is proud of drinking spirits. These aging pots are actually few people interested.

   Until the other day, A Lin Qitu came to the door and agreed, knowing that Sun Shaozong would like it, so he asked for a gift.

   He twisted the lid of the stove and temporarily used it as a utensil for warming wine. After a short time, the rich and mellow aroma of wine filled the room.

At this time, the door curtain was lifted, Xu Furen came in from outside, his nose twitched a few times, and he couldn't help but chant with a smile: "Drinking wine and being generous with the king, the favor is overturned like waves; the white prime minister still presses the sword when he knows. Zhumenxianda laughed and flicked the crown; the grass was full of drizzle and wet, and the flowering branches were eager to move in the spring breeze; what is the matter of the world, it is better to lie high and have an extra meal."

   said, he took off his boots and sat cross-legged across from Sun Shaozong.

   The two got acquainted with each other early on the way, so Sun Shaozong didn't show much courtesy. He just picked up the jug in his hand and poured a full glass for him.

   At the same time, he smiled and said, "Listening to Mr. Xu's meaning, I am afraid that it will be another day?"

   "Waiting is wasting, but it is not nothing."

   Although the negotiations have not made much progress in the past few days, Xu Furen's spirit is much stronger than on the road.

   I saw that he was the old man talking about the juvenile madness and toasting to the bottom, and then he got upright again, peeked forward slightly, pressed his throat and said: "No doubt about Mo is the white lotus religion."

   This sentence is boring, but Sun Shaozong immediately understood it, and hurriedly put the hip flask back on the stove, straightened his waist, and put on a posture of listening respectfully.

   But after arriving at the post house, Sun Shaozong vaguely noticed that in addition to the Jurchen spies, there seemed to be some unidentified people around who were spying on the mission's every move.

The Mongols were outside the city gate that day. Sun Shaozong took more than half of them. Even if they secretly returned to the city, most of them did not dare to show up near the Great Zhou Mission. Even if they were bold enough to find it, they would be recognized by Sun Shaozong. .

   So the two of them deliberated secretly, and concluded that there were probably other forces in this city, and most of them were the hostile forces of Da Zhou.

   Although the Great Zhou is all enemies on all sides, it is really necessary to count, but there are only a few forces.

   After eliminating Mongolia, the White Lotus Sect, also in the north, has naturally become a key target of suspicion.

   So in the past few days, Xu Furen was negotiating with the Jurchens while scrambling for news, but it was horrified, and there was no progress for a few days.

   But today, he finally managed to figure out some details.

Just listen to Xu Furen stroking his beard: "Today I talked to Tarzi about the frontier army. When the old man mentioned the Shaanxi-Gansu area, he deliberately sold a flaw, but Wu Qizhi broke it out casually. Obviously he was deploying to the frontier army of Shaanxi-Gansu. Quite understanding."

   "However, the current range of activities of the Jurchens is far from touching even the Mongols in the Shaanxi-Gansu area. Nowadays, they are often harassed in Shanxi and Hebei, so that they can be horns with the Jurchens."

   "It is undoubtedly the White Lotus Sect who cares so much about the Shaanxi-Gansu Border Army and can clearly grasp its movements!"

   Xu Furen’s speculation may not be ten percent certain, but six to seventy percent are still there.

In his mind, Su Xingfang’s voice and smile flashed involuntarily, and Sun Shaozong said solemnly: “If the people of the White Lotus Cult, the Mongols rushed outside the city gate, most of them couldn’t get rid of these white lotus traitors. What he is good at is to fan the flames and make use of his strength."

   Xu Furen nodded: "Compared to the Mongols, they are the least willing to strike in Liaodong. They will find ways to stop them, too..."

   Halfway through, Xu Furen's gaze suddenly condensed, and the colleague Sun Shaozong on the opposite side also gave a solemn expression, and then the two of them blurted out in unison: "Could it be that the White Lotus Sect is going to [again] have something to do in the near future?!"

   This time the imperial court decided to dispatch Xu Furen as an envoy to Houjin. At first, only a few important officials in the DPRK knew about it. However, it took only two or three days from the formal order to the embassy's departure.

   To say that for such a short time, even if the White Lotus Sect far away in Shanxi and Gansu can respond, it is absolutely impossible to send someone to Jianzhou City to make waves.

   In other words, the White Lotus Sect came to Liaodong with other purposes without knowing this.

   And the Bai Lianjiao can travel thousands of miles and brave the wind and snow to contact Houjin, I am afraid that there will only be a ‘rebellion’!

   After thinking of this, Xu Furen and Sun Shaozong immediately worked out a countermeasure.

   First of all, it is natural to send someone back to the customs to inform the court~lightnovelpub.net~ in order to take precautions.

  Secondly, it is best to find the Bailian rebels in the city and ask for information about the rudder of Shaanxi and Gansu.

   This time is different from going to the capital to find the saint. In order to be able to join the Jurchen alliance, the people who are sent by the White Lotus sect to be responsible for the negotiation must come up with some weighty ‘bargaining chips’.

   If you can pry open the opponent's mouth, it will definitely deal a huge blow to the White Lotus Sect.

  Besides, the posthouse must be guarded harder.

  The teacher of the past and not forgetting the future, since the White Lotus Sect has been wounded and split, its power has long been weaker than before, but the pervasive infiltration methods are the most troublesome for the court.

   If the post house was also infiltrated by the White Lotus Sect, then the fun would be great.

   Just in this way, the introduction of North Korean women naturally ended without problems.

  Sun Shaozong came out of Xu Furen's room, wondering how to appease the restless officers and soldiers, but suddenly realized something was wrong.

   looked up and looked around, but couldn't figure out what was wrong.

   So he went back to his room uneasy. Just when he opened the door, one foot in the door and one foot outside the door, there was a sudden insight in his head:

   Where is Feng Xin?

   Isn't that kid waiting for his reply?

  According to his anxious temperament, he was walking leisurely along the way, and he should have stopped him.
