Chapter 883 Negotiations
Witch Holy Land.
A team of envoys from the great merchants headed by the fourth prince Mu Bai arrives.
The arrival of the prince in person fully demonstrated the sincerity of Dashang for this peace talk.
but.
The Empress Wu obviously didn't care about any prince, but one of her enemies.
"Where's your master?"
Queen Wu looked at the boy in front of her and asked.
"I do not know either."
Huanzhu shook his head, and replied, "After the Tianfan Peak battle, Master disappeared, and there is no news about him so far."
When the Empress Wu heard this, she narrowed her eyes and said, "Boy, if you say that the Empress will detain you and release the news, will your master come to rescue you?"
"will not."
Huanzhu immediately denied, "Did the Queen forget that the last time the younger generation was arrested, Master Fairy escaped by himself."
To be honest, brother, this master, is really unreliable.
Ahead, Queen Wu frowned slightly after hearing what the kid in front of her said.
It seems so.
That crazy woman Qin Grace left her disciple last time and ran away by herself!
While the two were talking, Da Shang's envoys stood there awkwardly, not knowing what to do.
The witch queen seemed to ignore their intentions.
"Forget it, come here, take the envoys of the Great Merchants down to rest."
There were too many people, and some things were difficult to talk about. The Queen Wu said something, then turned and walked towards the altar.
Don't worry, that crazy woman owes her, and she will get it back little by little.
Now it's the boy from the Li family and Da Shang, who want to ask her.
Whether it's public or private, she has to make a good calculation with them.
It is a joyful thing to be asked for.
"Your Highness, this witch queen is really rude!"
Among the envoys of the Great Merchants, an official from Honglu Temple said in a deep voice, "We are also envoys of the Great Merchants, and she didn't even pay attention to a word."
"People are under the roof."
Mu Bai said calmly, "As long as peace talks can be reached, the Queen's attitude is irrelevant."
Around, the officials of Honglu Temple saw that His Royal Highness had spoken, so they didn't say anything more. However, the pampered officials of Honglu Temple have always given embarrassment to the envoys of other small countries. When have they ever received such anger? , the complexion is not very good-looking.
The feng shui took turns, and no one thought that the big businessman who had always been invincible in the world would one day ask for someone else's head.
Soon, the envoys of the Great Merchants went down to rest under the Tianwei of the Wu Clan.
"Brother Li."
On the way, Mu Bai opened his mouth and said in a concentrated voice, "Is the Plum Blossom Sword Fairy something precious from the Empress Wu? It's better to get rid of the enemy than tie it up. If it doesn't work, let's return it to her."
"Not yet."
Huanzhu smiled wryly, "At the beginning, Master Fairy and Queen Wu jointly killed a black flood dragon that was about to transform into a dragon. Take it."
"What about things?"
Mu Bai's heart skipped a beat and he asked.
Plum Blossom Sword Immortal is too ruthless!
The few most precious things on Jiaolong were taken away.
"I ate the dragon ball, and I drank the blood of my heart, and the three scales are still in the hands of Master Fairy." Huanzhu replied.
Mu Bai heard it, but he was speechless, he didn't know what to say.
If you really have your disciples, you must have your teachers.
Brother Li and Plum Blossom Sword Fairy are a perfect match between master and apprentice.
In the center of the holy place, on the altar.
The Empress Wu sat cross-legged and continued to practice, not paying any attention to the visit of the envoy of the Great Merchant.
What a shit.
It is more important to return the treasures that the kid owed her.
"The front is the forbidden area of the altar of my witch clan, don't get close."
At this moment, a loud noise sounded in the distance. The Queen Wu felt it, opened her eyes, and said, "Let him come over."
"Yes!"
Outside the altar, Tianwei took orders and stopped blocking.
Under the vigilant eyes of many heavenly guards, Huanzhu walked towards the altar, sat down casually on the edge of the altar, reached out and handed over a stack of silver notes, and said, "Queen Wu, this is from the Li family. apologize."
In the middle of the altar, the witch queen stretched out her hand and took the bank note. She said indifferently, "Public is public, private is private. The matter between the big merchants and the witch clan cannot be resolved with a few silver notes."
"I know."
Huanzhu nodded and said, "I came here because I was forced, otherwise, I wouldn't dare to come back easily."
"Return the things your master stole, it's a personal grievance." The Queen Wu said lightly.
"Not yet, except for the dragon scales, I have eaten everything else."
Huanzhu said helplessly, "And those three dragon scales are still with Fairy Master, and it is estimated that she will not be found for a while. Empress Wu, look, is it true?"
"ate?"
Hearing the words, the Empress Wu revealed an angry face, and said, "Violence! The black flood dragon that is about to transform into a dragon is so precious, how can it be measured by silver taels."
"What should I do?"
Huanzhu spread his hands and said, "The matter is a foregone conclusion. Even if the Queen Wu kills me, it's useless. It's better to convert it into silver, which can recover some losses."
Speaking of this, Huanzhu seemed to think of something, took out a box from his arms, threw it over, and said, "This is the treasure that my elder sister got from going to the East China Sea. One, for you, Queen of Witches."
Hearing the words, Queen Wu opened the wooden box, and when she saw the beads inside, she narrowed her eyes slightly and said, "What is this?"
It seemed familiar, but for a while, I couldn't remember where I had seen it before.
"Qu Nanzhu."
Huanzhu smiled and said, "The god of beauty."
"Qu Nanzhu?"
Queen Wu heard about it, and she was surprised. She had only seen this thing in ancient books, but she didn't expect it to exist.
Well, it's just interest.
While thinking, the Queen Wu put Qu Nanzhu away without leaving any trace, and she was not polite at all.
"Queen Wu, we can talk slowly about what Master Fairy owes you, don't worry, my Li family won't default on it anyway."
Huanzhu looked at the woman on the altar and said sternly, "However, the matter between the big merchants and the witch clan cannot be delayed."
"Since when did you become a running dog of the Great Shang court?"
The Empress Wu sneered, "I heard from the empress that the Dashang court has just sealed off many shops in your Li family. You are really magnanimous."
"The lips are dead and the teeth are cold, and the emperor's life is in his body, so he has to come if he doesn't come."
Huanzhu said softly, "Queen Wu, the strength of the Wu tribe is not enough to compete with the big merchants. Moreover, the Wu tribe has long been used to living in southern Xinjiang all year round. They are not very interested in living in the Central Plains. On the contrary, the people of Southern Xinjiang and Dashang There is no small benefit to the merchants and mutual trade, so there is no need for the big merchants and the Wu clan to be hostile, and it is more beneficial to each other to maintain a friendly relationship and communicate with each other."
"Boy from the Li family, I admit later that you are a very good lobbyist."
The Empress Wu said with a cold expression, "However, the empress does not like the big business. If it dies, even if the witch clan can't get any benefits, the empress is also happy."
When Huanzhu heard the words, his face was speechless.
Brother is right, this crazy woman is not only narrow-minded, but also perverted.
It is really useless to want to move it with emotion and understand it with reason.
Tactics must be changed.
Just when Huanzhu and the witch queen madwoman started to fight.
Ten Rivers City.
Li Ziye ordered his troops, ready to lead his troops northward.
He is very clear that at this point in the war, Dashang has lost the opportunity, and if he continues to defend passively, he will only become more and more embarrassed, and must change his strategy.
Use offense as defense, and force Mobei Iron Cavalry to return to aid!
at the same time.
Mobei, Baidi tribe.
The cold wind blows, and the dust is flying.
"Nan'er, don't run around, it's cold outside."
In front of an exquisite tent, a woman looked at the little girl in front and shouted.
The grassland should have been a season of abundant aquatic plants, but now, it is still cold and windy.
On the grassland, the aquatic plants are sparse, far less lush than in the past.
The weather is cold, water and grass are hard to grow, cattle and sheep can't eat enough, and the people in Mobei are even more hungry and cold.
"Mother."
In the cold wind, the little girl turned her head, she looked about ten years old, carved in powder and jade, very pretty.
"Mother, when will Father come back?"
Looking at the endless grassland, Nan'er asked with a look of nostalgia.
"almost."
The woman said softly, "Your father is looking for a place to live for the clansmen, and he will come back when he finds it."
