Traveling through ancient times, the spy princess had everything going smoothly

The Xiliang Emperor remained silent for a long time, then she said, "Thank you for your hard work today, all the envoys. Please settle down in the post house first, and come back to discuss in detail at 3 p.m."

The three were brought to the post house by the Xiliang people. "You guys stay here! Someone will bring you food in a while. I hope you stay quietly in the post house and don't cause trouble."

The visitor left after he finished speaking. Qinghe and others looked at the arrogant attitude of the Xiliang envoy and felt unhappy.

Qing He frowned slightly and said softly, "The Xiliang Kingdom's attitude may be intentional to make things difficult for you."

Baili Ye's face was grim, and he said in a deep voice: "They must be trying to test our bottom line and stir up trouble."

Baili Ting shook his head slightly and sighed: "It seems that the road to this negotiation will not be smooth."

Baili Ye called Baiyi in and asked, "What's going on outside?"

Bai Yi replied, "Your Majesty, there are many guards stationed outside the posthouse. It seems that they are here to monitor us."

Baili Ye snorted coldly, "Tell everyone to stay in the inn and don't go out. Find someone to stay in my room and the princess's room. We will go out for a while."

Bai Yi took the order and went out. Bai Li Ye said to Bai Li Ting, "Brother, Xiao He and I will go out to find out the situation. I'll have to trouble you to stay here."

"Okay, you two should be careful when you go out. Don't worry here. They are just restricting our freedom to come in and out."

After Baili Ting finished speaking, he also left the room.

Qinghe and Baili Ye looked at each other, and their minds were connected. They instantly disappeared from their original places and flashed into space. Qinghe turned on the space teleportation function, and after a few teleportations they arrived at the imperial study of the Xiliang Palace.

Qing He and Baili Ye were in the space, quietly observing the Emperor of Xiliang and his ministers discussing the matter of borrowing grain and supplies.

The Xiliang Emperor looked solemn, tapped the table lightly with his fingers, and said in a deep voice:

"Today, the Crown Prince, Prince Chen and Princess Chen of Dasheng came to Xiliang to discuss the matter of Xiliang borrowing grain from Dasheng."

A minister below said, "Your Majesty, the pigeon message from my Xiliang envoy to Dasheng arrived only one day after it was delivered, and the people from Dasheng arrived. How did they do it?"

"Your Majesty, our Xiliang spies in the Turkic region reported that Dasheng sent a batch of food and supplies to the Turkic region yesterday. It is said that there are 400,000 to 500,000 kilograms of food, as well as countless cold-resistant supplies and medicines.

Your Majesty, just for this reason, Dasheng's strength cannot be underestimated!"

"I reconsider my opinion. Now that the Turks and Dasheng are on good terms, I think Xiliang should also be on good terms with Dasheng and try to reach as much cooperation as possible with Dasheng."

"Yes, Your Majesty, this year Dasheng has launched many new industries, and each industry is very popular. In addition, Dasheng's new crops will begin to be promoted next year. Moreover, this winter, Xiliang has suffered a severe snowstorm, and no more incidents can be caused.

I think that Dasheng should only be friendly and not hostile! "

At this time, another minister stood up and said, "Your Majesty, I have a different opinion. Now my Xiliang army has assembled in the border village.

Moreover, Xiliang, the Yi people and the Yuezhi have already agreed to launch an attack on Dasheng at the same time. At that time, as long as the emperor gives the order, our people can reach the battlefield in half a day.

As long as we win, our three countries can sign a treaty with Dasheng and ask Dasheng to pay tribute to us every year. We won't have to worry about not having enough food in the pot in the future!"

Another minister who advocated war also echoed:

"Your Majesty, although Dasheng is powerful, our Xiliang army is strong, and we have the help of the Yi people and Yuezhi. We will definitely win this battle. If we retreat now, we may lose the initiative, and it will be even more difficult to send troops in the future."

The Xiliang Emperor nodded, looked at everyone, and asked:

"Now that Dasheng has sent people to discuss borrowing grain, if we rashly send troops, we may lose credibility with the world. What reason do we have to stir up trouble and send troops to Dasheng?"

A minister stepped forward and said with a salutation:

"Your Majesty, you can use the excuse that the food supplies provided by Dasheng are insufficient to meet the needs of Xiliang, and use this as an excuse to start a war."

Another minister said:

"In my opinion, we can look for the mistakes made by the Dasheng envoys at the post station, make a mountain out of a molehill and stir up a dispute."

The Emperor of Xiliang frowned slightly and fell into deep thought.

After a moment, he slowly said:

"Since Dasheng is here to discuss borrowing grain, we have to start from here. The Turks got 500,000 kilograms of grain, and we want the same amount too. If we can't give so much, it would be a disrespect to Xiliang. Do you understand?

You guys go down and prepare, and come back when the Crown Prince of Dasheng, the Prince of Chen, and the Princess of Chen come to discuss at 3 p.m.."

"Follow the Holy Orders."

The ministers withdrew. Qing He and Bai Li Ye were about to leave when they heard the Emperor of Xiliang order: "Baoyintu, summon Kundulun, Erdun, and Sukhbaru to see me."

"Yes." Baoyintu received the order and went out.

Soon, three people came into the palace. When they saw the emperor, they bowed and said:

“The Crown Prince of Dasheng, the Prince of Chen, and the Princess of Chen have already arrived in Xiliang. Today I will arrange for all the ministers to discuss the issue of borrowing grain and materials from them. Kundulun, you will be responsible for receiving them in the capital.

Erdun and Sukhbaru, you will lead the troops from the east and west to the border and gather with the soldiers hiding in the villages around the border. At 12:00 a.m. on the 26th, you will send troops together with the Yi people and Yuezhi to attack at the same time. "

"My son, I obey."

Afterwards, several people discussed it again, and then the three princes left the palace.

Qinghe Bailiye witnessed everything, activated the space teleportation function again, and returned to the inn.

Baili Ting was anxiously waiting in the room. When he saw them coming back, he quickly asked, "What's the situation?"

Baili Ye recounted everything he saw and heard in the imperial study of the palace.

Baili Ting nodded slightly and sighed:

"It seems that the three countries of Xiliang have decided that the war will start the day after tomorrow, so we will return to the barracks immediately after the discussion today."

"Brother, what you said is absolutely right." Baili Ye thought for a moment, "Although the two countries have diplomatic relations, envoys will not be killed, but if Xiliang detains us here, it will be disadvantageous to our Dasheng."

Qing He also nodded in agreement. She thought for a moment and said, "I have an idea. Can you guys take a look at it?"

Baili Ye and Baili Ting looked at Qinghe curiously. They took a step closer and listened to Qinghe's detailed account.

After the two of them heard this, Baili Ting nodded slightly and said in a deep voice:

"This is a brilliant plan. Let's do it! We must make a quick decision today. After we have completed the deal with them, we will leave the posthouse and return to the barracks as soon as possible."

Baili Ye also nodded and said, "Okay, let's do as Xiaohe said. But we have to be careful, the people of Xiliang may notice something."

The afternoon came quickly. Qinghe, Baili Ye and Baili Ting put their clothes in order and headed for the negotiation site with a calm look on their faces.

Kundu Lun had been waiting here for a long time. With an arrogant smile on his face, he said, "Three of you, my father and I, the ministers of Xiliang, are waiting. Please come in."

The three men walked into the hall and saluted the Emperor of Xiliang.

The Xiliang Emperor had a calm expression and said:

"You three have come a long way and have worked hard. Today we will discuss the matter of borrowing food and supplies."
