The heart of an emperor has nothing to do with a king himself. To put it simply, no matter how incompetent a monarch is, he can hide it without revealing it. It's just that the thing itself may be different.

And it is not easy to find out the heart of the emperor. Above the officialdom, such a person is either a capable minister above 10,000 people under one person, or a minister who covers the sky with one hand and blinds the emperor! Although Wang Zhenghao was an envoy and was personally received by Emperor Beiqing, he was neither. Therefore, he didn't know what Emperor Beiqing really meant. He is more like an obedient tool, with only the role of "use".

Among the civil and military officials, there are many tools like this, so those in power often lose one or two tools that they don't have to take advantage of. Some people have been tools all their lives but don't know it, until the moment they are discarded, they don't understand...... That's the saddest thing. Although Wang Zhenghao is a tool, he is not sad, because he understands his identity as a tool.

As a tool, because he doesn't understand the emperor's mind, he won't guess, he has the consciousness of being a tool itself. As far as the land and fiefdom are concerned, he feels that such a reward is a bit too much. And at that time, Emperor Beiqing's meaning was very clear, how to reward Shi Yuan, it all depends on Shi Yuan's attitude. Even if he was really a little envious and jealous of Shi Yuan, he was still doing things according to his will. Of course, this is mainly due to the threat of Baihua to him.

"Grant land and seal the territory? Gee...... That's a big reward! Did the second prince say how much land he plans to give me? The two of them had their own thoughts, and after a short silence, Baihua continued to ask.

Wang Zhenghao originally thought that "Shi Yuan" was thinking about whether to agree or not to agree, but he didn't expect to ask about the fiefdom...... Regarding the fiefdom, before he crossed the river, Emperor Beiqing just mentioned it casually, how did he know how much he was conferred? Moreover, the matter of giving land and sealing the territory was originally a matter of honoring the ancestors, and the amount of the grant was completely the meaning of the monarch. And now "Shi Yuan" actually asked so bluntly how big the land is...... He really didn't take the emperor of Beiqing in his eyes.

"This ...... Regarding the matter of the fief, the Holy Lord needs to work out carefully, so I don't know about this matter yet. "When a person is under the eaves, he cannot help but bow his head. At this time, no matter how much "Shi Yuan" despised the emperor of Beiqing, he could only bury his head and endure it.

"Oh? In that case, let's wait until the results of the reward fief come out, and then the king will come to me again to talk about this matter! Baihua said lightly.

Wang Zhenghao was stunned, he suddenly realized that "Shi Yuan" had been playing with himself from the beginning! His face became a little difficult to look at, "Shi Yuan! In that case, are you unwilling to surrender? ”

Baihua shook his head, "I, Shi Yuan, can be regarded as a figure with a head and a face, so let me surrender, wouldn't I be very faceless?" So, Wang joins the army, please go back! If the army really comes to the city in the future, and the Beiqing army can push me Shiyuan to a desperate situation, I will consider the matter of surrendering. ”

"I'm afraid that the Holy Lord won't give you another chance at that time!" Wang Zhenghao said coldly.

"That's my own business!" Baihua continued to say coldly: "Please forgive me for having something to do, so I won't accompany me here." With that, he left straight away.

But after walking to the door, Baihua suddenly stopped, turned to Wang Zhenghao, who was at a loss, and replied: "Wang doesn't have to be too restrained when he joins the army, since he is here, let's go around Yangzhou City!" Lest I be said that I am not considerate of Shiyuan......"

Although Wang Zhenghao didn't know why "Shi Yuan" had a better attitude, he looked at the sky and it seemed that he couldn't get out of the city. In this case, it is just right to contact other people in Yangzhou City......

"Senior Sister Baihua, how is the situation?" After returning to the backyard, Shen Wei, who had been waiting for news, hurriedly stepped forward and asked.

"The conditions for surrender proposed by Beiqing are - to grant land and seal the territory." Baihua replied.

"Grant land and seal the territory? That is to say, he is murderous? Although Baihua just said a word, Shen Wei immediately understood. This kind of reflex requires a keen intuition, as well as the accumulation of experience. Obviously, for Shen Wei, who has been engaged in "espionage" activities for many years, her cognition of this kind of thing is extremely keen!

"That's how it should be. Senior Sister Shen, you should be familiar with the emperor of Beiqing, right? Since the incident of the Qinglian Sect, the branch of the Qingfeng Pavilion on the other side of Beiqing has been closely monitored, and I can't get any news......" Baihua opened his mouth and said: "So Senior Sister Shen, is there a way for you to inquire about the current situation in Beiqing?" ”

"This ...... In fact, since my last correspondence, the relationship I arranged in Beiqing has also been closely monitored. Although he didn't make his identity clear, he guessed it when he wanted to come to Beiqing. I've also tried to contact Beiqing these days, and the result is ...... But it's not ideal. Shen Wei replied with some embarrassment.

"That's right...... Then there is no way. Baihua shook her head with some regret, then turned to Yue Fei and said, "By the way, General Yue, you must keep the matter of Shi Gongzi still in the city secret, but you must not let Liu Dabeard and Xia Lingcang get any news." At least before the Beiqing army was hit hard! ”

"Well, I don't have any problems. It's just that if they ask to see General Shi, how should I ...... this," Yue Fei asked.

"Don't worry! They definitely won't ask to see Shi Gongzi now. After all, Liu Dabeard is the nominal commander of the three armies, and if Xia Lingcang comes to find Shi Gongzi, we can completely avoid it. As for Liu Dabeard, I will trouble General Yue to stabilize him. Baihua replied confidently.

"Good!" Yue Fei heard it, and he replied first.

"In addition, if there is no accident tonight, this envoy of Beiqing will secretly return to Liu and Xia!"

"Shall I have someone follow him?" Yue Fei hurriedly asked.

"No, you don't! Just take advantage of this to find out the conditions that Beiqing gave them. However, General Yue may have to worry about other things tonight. "The so-called blockage is better than sparse, Baihua's attitude towards this matter has always been like this.

"What?"

"Tonight, you let the soldiers of the three armies hold a banquet, which is the set you asked Shi Gongzi to make on Yelian Island before, and use all that you can use! In short, let him see the singing and dancing of Yangzhou City! ”

Yue Fei heard it and was still wondering: Is it really necessary to do these things at the moment of this great enemy? But Baihua had already turned to Shen Wei and said, "I want to come to Senior Sister Shen and I haven't moved my hands and feet for a long time, how about we go out of the city tonight?" ”
