Chapter 971 Before Negotiation(1/2)

This time when I went to Guanzhong, Wang Xiao brought Wang Kang with me.

Along the way, Wang Kang felt very uncomfortable when he saw Wang Xiao either practice martial arts or sit in a carriage to read books and documents every day.

He felt that this child was not so easy to learn before, and he was still a fool who was drooling all day long. He became like this in a blink of an eye and was very stylish.

The father and son were sitting in the same carriage, and there was nothing to talk about.

What can Wang Kang talk about? You can’t tell someone’s dignified prince, “You must be motivated.”

Or things like "You should pay attention to your body"... Wang Xiao pays great attention to his body, practices every day without any plagiarism, and in turn urges him, "Dad, you should get off the car and move."

As for the words "a few more grandchildren", Wang Kang didn't dare to say it anymore. He felt that it would be troublesome to have too many sons.

It was so boring that Wang Kang suddenly said, "You are becoming less and less like my husband's son."

Wang Xiao said carelessly: "I am obviously the son who is becoming more and more like my father."

"I was originally my son, and I was more and more like it." Wang Kang said angrily, "I said, why did you dare to entrust me to accompany you to Xi'an..."

"Go to meet your grandson. I picked up this grandson before the summer, and I had another grandson when I returned to the capital before the New Year."

Wang Kang was speechless for a moment, and grabbed his beard and thought that he had just taken his grandson back to see him. What was there to see when he traveled thousands of miles to see?

He picked up a document that Wang Xiao put there and took a look.

"Yuele is stationed in Yanmen Pass, but our army has not captured it for a long time..."

After just scanning this sentence, Wang Xiao took the official document back from him.

"Dad, don't touch my things."

"What's wrong with taking a look? I don't like to watch it yet."

Wang Xiao finally had time to deal with him, raised his head from the desk, and said, "Qianqian will become my legitimate princess like Mei'er. This time when you go to Xi'an, Dad, you must show your attitude towards your daughter-in-law. You must be kind and kind to the Tang family, but you cannot be too low."

"I know."

Wang Xiao pondered for a while and said, "The children of the two families need more marriages. Although I don't like this, I can compromise this time. After arriving in Kaifeng, there will be a list of men and women who are suitable for marriage in the Tang family. Dad, please look at the arrangement."

"Marriage?" Wang Kang became interested and said, "There are not many suitable marriages at home."

"If you are from the second uncle and the distant relatives, you can count them all. You can rank them according to my Qianqian's seniority."

"I heard that the daughter-in-law has two sisters... the second child is now..."

"Dad." Wang Xiao interrupted, "Since my second brother likes Song Lan'er, you can just let him go. Why bother with him? You can't resist him."

"Hmph, I can't persuade him, can you, a dignified prince, convince him?!"

"I can't, and I won't care about this. I'll kill this heart."

"Reverse..." Wang Kang was furious.

"Let me say that, when we go back to Jinan, our second brother and Song Lan'er will have become a kiss. It's useless to scold me for being a rebellious son, it's too late."

Wang Kang was shocked and turned to look behind the carriage. He saw that the team was endless, and Jinan City was already high and far away...

~~

At that time, Wang Xiao left Guanzhong quickly after defeating Dorgon, and the finale after the war was left to Tang Qianqian. As for the Chu army, Wang Xiao ordered Qinshanhu to go to Taiyuan immediately, and Cai Wuzhen went north to attack Xinzhou.

In his eyes, Shanxi is more important than Shaanxi for the time being.

To stabilize Shanxi, he can form an encirclement of Yanjing.

In Shaanxi, Wang Xiao hopes to recover as peacefully as possible.

Under such circumstances, after the Battle of Guanzhong, the Chu army did not occupy too many cities in Ruichao except Tongguan and Pubanjin.

It's like two adjacent houses. The neighbor's house has removed the middle courtyard wall, but it hasn't entered the house yet.

After Tang Zhongyuan died in battle, Tang Feng never ascended the throne and became emperor.

During the period of his escape to Hanzhong, Li Bobo called him "Your Majesty". However, after regaining Xi'an, he inadvertently changed back to "Your Highness".

The situation is no longer conducive to becoming emperor, and there are many reasons.

For example, Tang Jie has returned... Tang Zhongyuan's great defeat caused Rui Dynasty to lose most of its strong brigades, so the Eastern Expedition Army under Tang Jie has become the most powerful force of Rui Dynasty.

If Tang Feng ascended the throne at this time and Tang Jie feels dissatisfied, the already shaky Rui Chao is likely to be broken in civil strife.

For example, Tang Feng knew very well that he had lost the capital to compete with Wang Xiao for the world and had the intention to surrender...

Having said that, Tang Feng felt a little confused about where to go in the future, and he needed to discuss with Tang Jie.

But he repeatedly invited Tang Jie to discuss, but Tang Jie never refused to enter the palace.

It was not until the fifth day of the second month that Tang Qianqian returned to Xi'an after finishing the aftermath of the Guanzhong battlefield, and the three brothers and sisters gathered together to discuss in detail.

With Tang Qianqian here, Tang Jie dared to enter the palace. This is probably a reflection of Tang Qianqian's current status in Ruichao.

If you don’t have to go around, you will get to the point.

Tang Feng first spoke: "The father has passed away, and the natural danger in Guanzhong is not here. The national strength of ours and Wang Xiao... is nothing like it. What should you do if the foundation left by the father? What are your opinions?"

"Brother means to surrender to Wang Xiao?" Tang Jie said.

Thinking of this, Tang Feng's face was still a little sad and sighed silently.

Tang Jie leaned up to the chair, looked at the roof, and said, "I used to say that I was Li Shimin, but now I am not as good as Liu Chan, my mother."

He was not the one who would always be sad about spring and autumn. He sighed and said directly: "It's okay to surrender, but the national strength is not as good as others anyway. But the conditions must be negotiated... It's pretty good according to the conditions that Wang Zhen mentioned last time."

Tang Feng said: "I didn't agree at that time. Now, I'm afraid Wang Xiao may not be willing to give such conditions again."

"Who told you not to agree at that time?" Tang Jie sneered: "Wang Zhen proposed this condition at that time, just asking you to send troops to Shanxi. If he agreed, can his father be defeated and died? Tang Feng, remember that his foundation is destroyed in your hands."

"At that time, I could still fight with Wang Xiao for the world. Can I not fight with my father?" Tang Feng said: "The king succeeds and the enemy will lose, and now that I have lost my capital, what else can I fight for?"

"Am I fighting for myself? Lao Qi has followed Wang Xiao for so long, and his son gave birth to him, and the world has given him aside. From now on, he will become the emperor and Lao Qi will become the queen. Can't our little nephew be a prince?"

"It's not what you think..."

Tang Jie said: "What else? We gave up the foundation that the emperor's father created with hard work in half his life, and what was the face of the emperor? We acted as sons and did not protect the emperor's father's rule. If we couldn't even give the throne to this grandson, we would talk about a bird!"

Tang Feng was not interested in this. He was already discouraged. All he wanted was to avoid the war, end all this as soon as possible, and remove the burden on his body.

"These are all later stories. Even if you are as strong as Wei Qing, you can't guarantee that Liu Ju will ascend the throne smoothly. It's not good to talk about such a distant thing now. Now I'll just ask you whether you agree to accept the surrender."

"I understand what I said very clearly. If Wang Xiao can agree to this condition, I agree."

"What if he doesn't agree?"

"Do you really think I can't beat him?"

Tang Feng said: "Can you beat him?"

"At worst, it's impossible to kill me. It's not easy for him to kill me." Tang Jiepairen said, feeling quite arrogant.

He glanced at Tang Feng with quite contempt and said, "Think about it yourself, like you, you have surrendered to you, what kind of face will we meet with the emperor's father after we die? Then the emperor's father asked, "Who has lived in the world? Is he my grandson?"

You said, ‘No, Wang Xiao passed the throne to the son of a little fairy, and our Tang family gave half of the country and sat for an outsider’, can you say it?”

Without waiting for Tang Feng to answer, Tang Jie continued, "You are lost, so you can say it out loud. I can't."

Tang Feng had no choice but to turn his head to look at Tang Qianqian and ask, "What do you say about Qi Mei?"

Tang Qianqian sat there with a cold face and finally said, "You are going to fight for your little nephew? OK. But I only ask my elder brother, where is the little daigua man?"

"It's time to come back from Hanzhong."

He waited until the end of the Battle of Guanzhong and cleared the remaining troops of the Qing army in Guanzhong, and then sent people to Hanzhong to pick up the family members of the royal family.

Tang Qianqian's face became more and more unhappy and asked again: "Xiaolang instructed his elder brother to send troops to block Li Hongji's army in Ziwu Road. Did he do it?"

Tang Feng was slightly stunned and replied: "This matter is too untrustworthy after all, and it is not that simple..."

"Brother did not listen." Tang Qianqian's face became more and more frosty.

"You mean... Li Hongji will detain our people?" Tang Feng shook his head and said confidently: "Li Hongji will never dare to do this."

Tang Qianqian said: "All officials of the Rui Dynasty and the relatives of the Tang family are in the team, so I won't say this. If my son has a few shortcomings, please see if Xiaolang is here to discuss with you this time."

After saying this, she glared at Tang Feng and turned around and left the lobby.

Tang Feng stood up and walked a few steps, looked at Tang Jie, and said, "Third brother, you know Li Hongji. This person is not stupid. He dared to touch our people if he loses his heart and becomes crazy..."

"That dog rebel general, tell him a ghost's trust..."

~~

Hanzhong.

"What did you say?" Li Hongji almost thought he had heard the report wrong.

Feng Hualong bowed and said again: "General Liu led his army to ambush Ruichao and returned to the team in Xi'an..."

"How dare he?!" Li Hongji was furious and shouted: "I have told him everything, but I don't agree."

Things have to start a while ago...

After helping the Chu Rui Alliance to defeat the Qing army in Boluo, Li Hongji was worried that Wang Xiao and Tang Fei would go back on his word. He found Tang Fei privately and had a deep conversation.

Li Hongji is also a smart person, worried that he would be ambushed on his way back to Hanzhong.
To be continued...
