Chapter 481: Peace
Wang Yuan burned three incense tablets in a row, and then opened all the back windows to let the breeze blow in, and then took away the hand covering his mouth. Frowning and gasping, he said, "I now understand how much you hate me, and you don't hesitate to plant so many filthy and foul-smelling monsters on your body to deal with me." ”
Princess Ah Luo also covered her nose and frowned: "I didn't know it was so disgusting, I knew it was like this, I wouldn't let these strange things grow in my body at all." It's horrible, it's horrible. ”
Wang Yuan was speechless, and when he turned around, he saw Gongsun Lan sitting on a chair with a pale face and meditating with his eyes closed, and hurriedly stepped forward to inquire.
"Send me back to the room, this time I have exhausted my Yuan Li, and I need to recuperate for a day." Gongsun Lan said weakly.
Wang Yuan hurriedly helped Gongsun Lan to get up, opened the door and helped her back to the room. Outside the door, everyone thought there was a fight and asked endlessly. Wang Yuan had no time to explain, so he sent Gongsun Lan back to the room to recuperate, and beckoned Qingyun'er and Ziyun'er to take more care of him, and then returned to the new house. When she came back, Princess Aluo had already cleaned up the dirt on the ground and was cleaning her hands in the basin.
"Is your lady alright?" Seeing Wang Yuan coming back, Princess A Luo asked with concern.
Wang Yuan waved his hand and said, "It's okay, I consumed my internal strength when I forced out the Gu Mother, and I can recover after resting for a while." By now you should understand that I'm not talking nonsense. The Gu poison has no effect on us, even the Gu Mother can force out the body, let alone the Gu worms planted. ”
Ah Luo nodded and said, "I believe it, you are not afraid of poisonous miasma, not even Gu poison, no wonder we were defeated this time." That's it, Nanzhao lost the deterrence of these two means, and it was only natural that the soldiers would be under the city. The weapons and armor are not sophisticated, and the number of soldiers and horses is inferior, so it is no wonder that they are undefeated. I agree to both the terms of the peace negotiation and the conditions you have in private, but I still need the nod of my brother. I need to go back to Taihe City to discuss this matter with my brother, and if my brother agrees, I will come here tomorrow to reply to you. ”
Wang Yuan said: "Naturally, it is necessary to ask for the approval of the lord of Nanzhao, but to sign the peace agreement, you need your brother to come in person." I don't have much time to wait, I can only give you a day, and if Ge Luofeng does not appear in the city of sheep and baa by tomorrow evening, all the things we have talked about today will be null and void. I don't want you to delay my time and waste food and grass here. It can't be finalized tomorrow, and early the day after tomorrow, you will see the banner of my Jiannan Army appear outside the Dragon Head Pass in Taihe City. ”
Ah Luo frowned and said, "You want my brother to come here in person?" Could it be some conspiracy? ”
Wang Yuan brushed his sleeves and sneered: "Do I need to use any conspiracy and tricks at this time?" I can take Ge Luofeng's head at any time, and I am sorry that you still ask such a thing. I don't want to say anything more, I don't care what you think, if you think it's a conspiracy, Ge Luo Fengda can't come. It's not too early, Princess Aluo, you can go back to Taihe City. ”
Ah Luo lowered his head for a moment, saw Wang Yuan take the tea and drank it by himself, looking like he didn't plan to talk more nonsense with himself, and finally bowed his head and saluted: "Then I'll go." ”
Wang Yuan looked at the blue sky outside the window, waved his hand and said, "Don't send it." ”
Ah Luo walked out, and Wang Yuan's voice came from behind him: "By the way, take away all your dowry clothes, furniture, incense cases, and everything, and take away this wedding robe." ”
The sound of the clothes breaking through the air came, Ah Luo turned around, and a groom's wedding robe flew over like a red cloud, and Ah Luo hurriedly reached out to catch it.
"Take it all?" Ah Luo said in a daze.
"These are all so-called dowry things, you and I are fake, do I Wang Yuan still covet your property? Take it away, take it away, and leave nothing behind. Wang Yuan waved his hand behind his back.
Ah Luo stood in place, with an indescribable feeling in her heart. Although it was not his wish to be forced to marry Wang Yuan this time, from last night to this morning, watching the people around him prepare wedding things for themselves, watching the people in the city give themselves dowries and send themselves out of the city, I always feel that this seems to be a real wedding.
On the way to the city of Yangjiba, Ah Luo, who was sitting on the back of the elephant, cried several times, lamenting that his fate was not good, and he was forced to complete the redemption of the Nanzhao Kingdom in this way. But looking back, looking at the grand send-off procession, the car full of expensive dowries, and the lively send-off scene, it is no different from the scene of getting married one day in my dream.
Every girl has a dream in her heart, and she wants her wedding to be grand and warm. Although Ah Luo is a princess, she also has such a dream. It's just that there is no man she likes in Nanzhao Kingdom, so although she is already an eighteen-year-old marriage, this dream has not yet come true. The object of this forced wedding is obviously not the man that Luo likes, not only is it not, but before entering the city of sheep and baa, Luo still has a great hatred for this man. However, at this moment, when he realized that this wedding was a farce after all, and Wang Yuan finally wanted to turn back with his dowry, for some reason, the emotions surging in Ah Luo's heart were very complicated.
Is it a blessing? Is it melancholy? Is it reluctant? Is it a pity? Arlo herself couldn't tell.
Although the contact time was short, and he was teased and humiliated by this man, Ah Luo had to admit that this man had a strange attraction to him. He is indeed hateful and despicable, but his merits are equally clear.
He is very honest and gentlemanly. From the beginning to the end, he did not utter a word of filth to himself, nor did he do anything to himself. He also does not seem to be greedy for money, and the large dowry is worth a lot of money, but he does not take it for himself. He was also extremely smart, he seemed so clumsy and stupid in front of him, most of what he said was reasonable, and many of his words were true from Nanzhao's standpoint. What's more, he is very young, very handsome, and he is in charge of the Jiannan army at a young age, which can be described as having a great future.
"Such a man, Nanzhao doesn't have it, I'm afraid it's not rare in Datang. No wonder he has such beautiful women by his side, I'm afraid the women of Datang will be crazy about him......" Princess A Luo thought jealously.
"Ah, what was I thinking? What's wrong with me? What's going on with your thoughts? Princess Aluo suddenly came to her senses, gritted her teeth and chopped her feet, turned around and walked out of the cave room where the flowers and candles were swaying, and beckoned the servants of the barbarians to return to Taihe City.
……
Ge Luofeng agreed to all the terms of the peace without any hesitation, although he also felt that these terms were too deceitful. However, at this point, he didn't have much choice. Especially after hearing the terrible things that Princess A Luo relayed about Wang Yuan was about to do to Nanzhao Kingdom, Ge Luofeng did not hesitate at all.
Ge Luofeng naturally understands very well what the consequences will be when Datang focuses on supporting one of the six edicts. When the old lord Pi Luo Ge was alive, he talked about this matter more than once, and with the strength of the Meng She Zhao led by Pi Luo Ge at that time, it was impossible to unify the land of the Six Edicts and recover the power of the Fu clan. The help given by the Tang Dynasty is the key to his success. At the beginning, Ge Luofeng seemed to understand whether he understood or not, but now Ge Luofeng understands better than anyone else.
So, the next morning, Ge Luofeng personally went to the city of sheep and baa. He knew that even if it was a conspiracy, he would have to take the risk. To keep the Nanzhao Kingdom, to keep his position as the lord of the country, he had no choice.
The talks were held in a cordial and friendly atmosphere, and the bargaining process between the two sides was actually unnecessary, only in the details of the return of prisoners and civilians on both sides, the inscriptions on the dead and wounded of the Tang soldiers, the location of the monument, and the situation of memorials. Some specific matters were finalized for the reconstruction of Anding City. In fact, it was basically proposed by Wang Yuan, and if Ge Luofeng was not satisfied, he would also cautiously raise some objections. Wang Yuan also made some concessions.
By noon, basically everything that should be discussed was discussed, and more specific details required the cooperation and consultation of specific people, and that was not a matter between Ge Luofeng and Wang Yuan. Therefore, the content of the discussion was implemented in black and white, signed and confirmed by both parties, and the agreement was completed.
For Wang Yuan, he needed to send the agreement he signed to the capital immediately to Yang Guozhong, Yang Guozhong would play Xuanzong for approval, and then Yang Guozhong signed it on behalf of the imperial court, and the agreement could be executed. Of course, Wang Yuan believes that this agreement will definitely be approved by Xuanzong, if this kind of agreement that takes advantage of it cannot be recognized by the imperial court, it can only show that Xuanzong is old and confused. Obviously, Xuanzong is not that kind of person.
However, the private agreement between Wang Yuan and Ge Luofeng was implemented in another way, that is, direct action. Wang Yuan would not put this kind of private agreement on paper, which is unwise. And this kind of win-win private agreement actually does not need to be bound on paper at all, which Ge Luofeng is also very clear.
After lunch, Wang Yuan invited Ge Luofeng to the east square of the city, where thousands of barbarian prisoners and wounded soldiers had been assembled, and tens of thousands of sets of captured barbarian soldiers' leather armor and weapons had also been loaded. Song Jiangong directly handed over the list and the list of items to Ge Luofeng, and Ge Luofeng and A Luo were very surprised by Wang Yuan's words. Sending troops to help each other was just a verbal promise, but Wang Yuan really fulfilled his promise for the sake of this verbal promise. Just this open-mindedness and courage, Ge Luofeng was ashamed of himself.
When Ge Luofeng came, he brought five hundred elephant riders and handed them over to the Jiannan army, and at this moment, Wang Yuan also fulfilled his promise, and fifty giant elephants also entered the square along the street and handed over to Ge Luofeng's men to take over. Ge Luofeng thanked him excitedly and saluted Wang Yuan.
