Drunk House Chapter 687

On the second day, Zhou Gu, Ye Guixue, Cui Xingzhi, Cui Yanjin, Zhou Shen, and Zhou Che went to discuss peace outside Xuzhou City.

Su Rong, Xie Yuan, Zhang Yun and others sat in the rear.

Zhang Yun smiled and said to Su Rong: "Brother Zhou Gu told me that the princess has sent a letter back to the royal capital to ask the king to prepare for the wedding?"

Su Rong nodded, "Yeah."

Zhang Yun said with a smile: "Preparing for the wedding is not something that happens overnight. Even if Brother Zhou Gu is anxious, the wedding between the princess and him will probably take half a year."

Su Ronxiao, "Preparing earlier can also help him settle down early."

Zhang Yun clicked his tongue inwardly and sighed, "Brother Zhou Gu met the princess, and now he won't let him suffer even the slightest grievance. It really makes us envious."

Everyone knows that if Yuan Chen is given as a hostage, he can be snatched away. However, the princess paid 200,000 gold in exchange for it. Although it was not a loss, it was not as cost-effective as asking for a second prince with some real power in the Wei Dynasty.

Su Rong looked at him amusedly, "Don't worry, when I return to the capital, all of you who follow me will be in demand. There are also many high-ranking ladies in the capital of Southern Chu who will fight to steal your bed." A quick son-in-law."

Zhang Yun held his forehead, and after a moment, he put down his hand and said with a smile: "I have bad judgment, I will rely on the princess when the time comes."

Su Rong smiled and nodded, "Easy to say."

Xie Yuan hummed at the side, "That boy Zhou Gu is too hasty. The situation in the Southern Chu Dynasty is only stable on the surface. After you return to the capital, you have a lot of things to do. I'm afraid you won't be able to spare a moment. Let alone half a year. , within one year, you can completely stabilize the Southern Chu Dynasty, which is considered fast."

"That's okay. Isn't the Ministry of Etiquette here? If you take the time to get married, you can always do it." Su Rong disagreed.

Xie Yuan laughed angrily, "After all, he is a young man, but he is not calm enough."

Su Rong stuck out her tongue at him and did not refute this.

The second princes of the Wei Dynasty, Yuan Chen and Nangong Zheng, were still waiting outside Xuzhou City. I didn't see Su Rong coming today, I only saw Zhou Gu and Ye Guixue. The two didn't say anything. After the two parties met, they still negotiated specific terms and drafted an agreement.

Zhou Gu used his own hands and wrote in person, listing the conditions clearly one by one. He gave the Wei Dynasty one month to cede four cities, deliver half a million gold, horses and other conditions. Then he wrote the date of writing. ten years.

Yuan Chen was shocked, "Why is it ten years?"

Zhou Gu looked at him and said, "Does signing for thirty years work? Aren't you, the Wei Dynasty, going to tear up the peace treaty? Let it last for ten years, and we will discuss it again after ten years."

Yuan Chen pursed his lips and turned to look at Nangong Zheng.

Nangong Zheng nodded, “Listen to Young Master Zhou.”

Da Wei suffered heavy losses this time and did not have much room for bargaining. Ten years is neither long nor short, giving both parties time to breathe, grow and develop, but at the same time, it will also tighten the curse.

Zhou Gu finished writing one copy and copied it in duplicate in a good mood. He put down his pen and said to Ye Guixue: "Brother Guixue, I have been busy for a long time. You can sign and seal this. "

Ye Guixue nodded without refusing, "Okay."

He signed his name and stamped his seal, then Yuan Chen signed his name and stamped his seal, and finally both parties stamped their respective national seals.

After signing the peace treaty, Zhou Gu curled his lips and looked at Nangong Zheng, "Nangong Zheng, it seems that Yuan Zhao really values you. From now on, the people of your Nangong family had better stay with Wei Mao, otherwise, Whenever anyone comes to Nanchu, I will kill one and send them all to the ancestral graves of your Nangong family to keep company with your ancestors."

Nangong Zheng's face was calm, "Zhou Gu, I will definitely avenge the Nangong family." "Okay, I'll give you ten years." Zhou Gu got on his horse.

　　After taking the peace agreement, the group did not stay any longer and rode back to the city.

Yuan Chen looked at the peace agreement and breathed a sigh of relief, but at the same time he couldn't help but worry about the treasury of the Wei Dynasty. The disastrous defeat of the Wei Dynasty this time was an unprecedented shame in the history of the Wei Dynasty. Who would have thought that the Wei Dynasty once conquered the south? Both Chu and Daliang can be aggressive and menacing, but now, the Wei Dynasty has made Southern Chu and Daliang join forces, forcing them to such a situation.

Nangong Zheng stared at Zhou Gu and others as they disappeared, and then he loosened his hands in his sleeves and said to Yuan Chen: "Second prince, take the peace agreement with you. You can set off today. Nanchu only gave us one month." time."

Yuan Chen nodded, stood up, and wrote the peace agreement, "Okay, I will set off today."

After Zhou Gu and others returned to the city, Su Rongxiao asked, "You're back so soon?"

"With the negotiated terms, the Wei Dynasty will naturally not change." Zhou Gu handed her the peace agreement to read.

Su Rong read it, showed it to Xie Yuan and others, put away the peace agreement, and then thought about it: "Leave people and troops to guard here. Let's set off back to the capital tomorrow!"

"I will stay here to guard." Zhang Yun said, "When the Wei Dynasty sends tribute, I will withdraw my troops and return to the capital."

Su Rong thought that Zhang Yun was indeed safe, nodded and said to him: "Zhang Mao and Ning Ze will also stay with you."

Cui Xingzhi said at the side: "Sister-in-law, I will stay too. After all, I have to take over the city ceded by the Wei Dynasty and other things. There are too few people left and it will be too busy. Let Yan Jin go to the royal capital with you."

“Alright.” Su Rong had no objection.

Ye Guixue said: "Logically speaking, I should also stay..."

"You take us back to the royal capital." Su Rong intercepted his words, "To stabilize the government, many things depend on you."

Zhou Gu took the words and said, "Brother Gui Xue, you, Prime Minister Ye, are the ones who know the Nangong family best. Now we need to eliminate the internal diseases as quickly as possible and restore people's livelihood. Many things depend on you."

Ye Guixue looked at the two of them and understood very well that they were in a hurry to get married and were afraid that there would be too many government affairs. After returning to the royal capital, they were the only two busy people. With him back, they would naturally have to share a lot of work.

He had no choice but to nod, "Indeed."

Su Rong turned to Zhou Shen and Zhou Che with a smile and said: "Second brother, third brother, you will set off tomorrow and bring 200,000 troops back to Daliang! The reason why Yuan Zhao agreed to Nanchu so happily was because Solve the threat of Nan Chu as soon as possible, and then negotiate terms with Daliang. But I am not satisfied with what he wants. You take the nearest road with 200,000 soldiers and horses to the border between Wei and Daliang."

Zhou Shen and Zhou Che nodded.

Zhou Shen said: "Why don't we leave today."

Su Rong looked at Zhou Gu after hearing this.

Zhou Gu was not reluctant and waved his hand, "Let's go today. If you stay one more day, we brothers also have to say goodbye. When the situation in both countries is stable, you can come and drink my wedding wine."

Zhou Che laughed angrily and slapped Zhou Gu **** the shoulder, "You really didn't want to leave us at all."

Zhou Gu muttered, “It's not the end of the world.”

Zhou Che thought about it, so he and Zhou Shen said goodbye to Su Rong, Zhou Gu and others one by one, took 200,000 soldiers and horses, and left.
