The Iron Khan said that he was busy and was preparing to summon Zhao and Chen the next day.

Xu Zhilan prepared a sumptuous banquet to entertain the two friends who had come to redeem him.

"How much ransom is my father going to take in exchange for the county lord?" Xu Zhilan asked Zhao Yun with a smile.

Zhao Yun said Princess Jinyang's proposal again, of course, as for where to exchange the territory, it depends on the requirements of the Iron Khan. The military strategic place will definitely not be ceded to Jingyang State, and Jingyang State will definitely make demands in this regard, so Zhao Yun estimates that this negotiation time may be a bit long.

At the end of the banquet, a young scholar in his forties stayed, saying that the emperor had a secret decree to pass on to Xu Zhilan.

After the others stepped back, the man took out a piece of black metal two inches wide and four inches long and handed it to Xu Zhilan.

"You're a dragon guard?" After Princess Huayang was killed, Xu Zhilan saw Hu Jun take out a sign with a similar shape, and Xu Zhilan was so nervous that he didn't see what was written on Hu Jun's sign. I saw that the front of this sign was engraved with the word "Wei", and the back was engraved with the word "Bingzi".

"Yes, lowly guard Bingzi, wait for the county lord to send you!" When Wei Bingzi answered, his face showed a sense of pride.

With Hu Jun's glorious deeds ahead, Xu Zhilan really doesn't have a good impression of Long Wei! He bowed his head slightly and asked, "What does my father command?" ”

"Your Majesty is worried that the Iron Cavalry Khan will ask for a price all over the sky, and deliberately makes things difficult, and orders the lowly officials to kidnap the Iron Cavalry Khan if necessary, and force him to let the county lord leave safely."

Xu Zhilan knew that the other party was reminding him to be prepared, so he was silent for a few seconds and asked, "How many dragon guards are here?" ”

"Within five zhang, it is enough to capture the Khan of the Iron Horseman!"

"First, you must listen to the orders of the county lord, and without the order of the county lord, you must not act without authorization! Otherwise, the whole house will be slashed! ”

After Wei Bingzi was ordered to leave, Xu Zhilan summoned Lan Keqing and the others and told them about it, so that they could be prepared.

The next day, the Iron Khan summoned Zhao Yun and Wei Bingzi in the king's tent, and Xu Zhilan also came.

After the two sides met, Zhao Yun spoke first and said: "Your Majesty Khan, back then, the county lord of your country Toya pretended to be a servant to approach the county lord of Yangtao, and later had a close relationship with the orchid remnant Chu Jinghan and others, so that when the county lord of Yangtao met the incognito county lord of Toya in Lingyun Pass, he still regarded the county lord of Toya as an orchid remnant, and thus arrested him, which is also understandable. The county lord of Toya suffered some grievances, and it is understandable that he ambushed the soldiers outside Lingyun Pass to arrest the county lord of Yangtao. Fortunately, there were no casualties between the two sides, and in this way, everyone turned the conflict into a jade silk......"

Liu Mei'er interrupted Zhao Yun's words and said, "Lord Zhao's words are wrong, my Jingyang Kingdom and Dahua Kingdom have always been good friends, and there is nothing wrong with this county lord traveling to Dahua. On the contrary, the county lord of Yangtao framed the county lord as an orchid remnant, and harmed the county lord to die in the world......"

"Lord Toya, if you had identified yourself earlier, why did you make such a fuss? You said that you traveled to Dahua, why did you let your cronies Xu Man be officials in Dahua? It has also achieved the same knowledge of six products! It can be seen how much the county lord of Yangtao trusts you, but you deliberately conceal your identity! Traveling is to visit around and increase knowledge, but you have been in Yangtao County for more than three years, can this be called travel? ”

Zhao Yun retorted so that Liu Mei'er had nothing to say.

The eldest prince spoke up: "Sister Tuoya and the lord of Yangtao County of your country are like sisters, although there is a misunderstanding, but it has been eliminated. Presumably Lord Zhao also saw that the county lord of Yangtao of your country was not neglected in my king's capital, and he enjoyed the same treatment as the county lord of Toya. In principle, Jingyangguo and Dahua have always been good friends, and it doesn't matter if this matter is revealed. But after all, the lord of Yangtao came to the royal capital as a prisoner, if your country does not show some sincerity, I am afraid that the people of Jingyang Kingdom will think that His Majesty Khan is afraid of your Dahua Emperor! ”

Zhao Yun listened to the meaning of the eldest prince, and he wanted to release it, but Dahua had to give Jingyang Kingdom a step. However, to give face to Jingyang Country, Dahua will have to lose face. Although Dahua Guo is ready to lose face, in fact, the county lord of Yangtao has lost face when he is arrested. But Zhao Yun, as a messenger, has to strive for equality, mutual benefit, and win-win.

It was time for Xu Zhilan to play, and he said with a smile: "The county lord of Toya is humble and has no intention of arresting the county lord, all of this is a misunderstanding. It was also a coincidence that she met at Lingyun Pass, she loved her people and wanted to build a fair, orderly, and prosperous trading market near the Lingyun Mountain Range. This is also the meaning of the lord of this county in the past. As we all know, in the past, the trade area was a mixed bag, and there were more than a dozen gangs of businessmen who exploited us. This time, it was the county lord and the county lord of Toya who deliberately staged a scene, intending to eliminate these ruffians and hooligans. ”

This is very false, but steps have been erected on both sides, so everyone tacitly did not refute it.

Xu Zhilan announced with a smile: "The lord of this county negotiated amicably with Princess Toya, and with the consent of His Majesty the Iron Khan of Iron Cavalry, the lord of this county invested 200,000 taels of silver to buy the grassland 200 miles outside Lingyun Pass, and establish a new trade zone there. The merchants of Jingyang Kingdom only charge half a tax when they trade goods in our Yangtao grassland. In order to ensure the safety of merchants, the county lord will establish a guard team of at least 3,000 people, whether it is the merchants of Dahua or Jingyang, as long as they enter the Yangtao grassland, if they encounter bandits, the losses suffered, the county lord will compensate according to the price. ”

The army is dangerous, and the supplementary clause says that the escort force will not enter the territory of Jingyang at will, otherwise it will be regarded as a provocation. If necessary, consult with the leader of the garrison of Jingyang State, and only after obtaining permission can you enter the grasslands of Jingyang State. Enter Lingyun Pass in Dahua, that is your own person, so naturally you don't have to report! This is also Xu Zhilan's promise that in case the general hangs up or adjusts the defense in two or two years, Xu Zhilan has an army to help the army of Jingyang State control the city gate of Lingyun Pass.

Zhao Yun was very depressed, feeling that his Qin Errand was so redundant! I came to negotiate at all, but I made a special trip to take the county lord home!

The two sides signed the terms of cooperation in the Khan's royal tent, and the matter was over!

Wang Wushu and Xu Hero were very dissatisfied, but Father Khan and several large tribal leaders agreed to this cooperation agreement.

After the negotiation, Xu Zhilan and others stayed in the royal capital for a few more days, and when they set off to return home, the Iron Khan gave him a bloody horse.

After Liu Mei'er caught Xu Zhilan, her identity was exposed, and it had spread near Lingyun Pass. In the widow's village, Xu San was voluntarily tied into the bamboo building of Lan Keke.

Lan Keke, who was pretty, sat on a bamboo chair, her willow eyebrows upside down, and the teacup poked heavily on the coffee table. If it weren't for the fact that Liu Mei'er was the county lord of Jingyang Country and had no stake in Hualan Country, otherwise, Lan Keke would have moved to refuge by now.
