After the cannon fodder mother wears the book, the male protagonist's son is more expensive tha

"I didn't expect that you would come to see me in person." The eldest grandson sat quietly in the main seat, and made an appointment to meet Shisi in the Ming hall.

The winter in Huainan Road is not as cold as in the north, and the charcoal fire in the hall is burning enough, so he only wears a dark purple robe, and on his finger is the jasper finger wrench that he gave Xiao Mo and was returned to him by Fourteen.

The servant lifted up the bamboo curtain, and Shishi, who was dressed in a moon-white robe, walked in with his hands behind his back, followed by Xiao Yan, Mei Zhixue, and Yin Zhu, and there was no one else besides them.Mei Zhixue was all smiles when she saw her brother.

The eldest grandson Jingxu and Mei Xingzhi who was sitting beside him stood up to greet him.

"As a friend, why can't we see each other?" There was a faint smile on Fourteen's face, and it was all warm.

"Friend?" Changsun Jingxu asked, "Are you talking about me or him?"

"Both of you." Without being moved, Fourteen found a seat and sat down.Gu Gu picked up the teacup on the case and took a sip: "Huainan tea is famous all over the world, among which Huoshan tea is the best. Now it is a first-class tea, and it really lives up to its reputation."

"Huoshan tea is a tribute, can't the empress of the dynasty still get it?"

Changsun Jingxu's words were quite yin and yang, and everyone in the hall could hear it.

Only Fourteen was "sluggish", put the teacup back on the case, and said, "After eating sand on the battlefield for two years, I have long forgotten what tea tastes like."

The room fell silent for a while, and Mei Xingzhi answered in a timely manner: "In Huainan Road, besides Shouzhou Huoshan, there are also Guangzhou, Yiyang County, Shuzhou, Qizhou and Huangzhou, all of which are rich in tea. If you are free, the commander-in-chief , you can stay in Huainan Road for a few more days and savor slowly."

"There is still time to taste tea, it depends on your prince's willingness to part with it."

"...a few cups of tea, Huainan Road can still afford it." Changsun Jingxu's tone softened slightly, "It depends on whether you dare to stay or not."

"Ha." Fourteen laughed, "What uncle said, why didn't I dare to stay?"

"...Why did you come here this time?" Changsun Jingxu first introduced the topic.

"The battle is over, and I came here to thank my uncle for giving up his personal vengeance to avenge righteousness when the family and the country were in trouble. On behalf of the Dali court and the people of the world, I would like to thank you." Fourteen picked up the teacup, "First, replace the wine with tea. uncle."

"I am originally from Dali, so naturally I will not let foreigners oppress my people in Dali and trample on the land of Dali." Changsun Jingxu knew that Fourteen hadn't told the truth, or that he hadn't told the truth completely. It’s just my heart, I don’t need you to thank me.”

His attitude is cold and hard, and Fourteen is not annoyed.After taking a sip of tea, he put down the cup again.Then said: "Besides, there is one more thing to discuss with uncle."

Everyone in the hall knows that this is the topic.

"After fighting for two consecutive years, the people of Dali need to recuperate, and they don't want another war to happen." Fourteen said, "That's why I'm here to talk to my uncle about this matter."

"The imperial court hopes to shake hands with the Huainan Palace to make peace."

"Peace?" Changsun Jingxu asked, "How do you make peace?"

"Uncle is still the king of Huainan. As before, you are in charge of the soldiers, the economy, and the people of Huainan Road." Fourteenth said, "The hereditary succession of the throne does not interfere with the imperial court. Uncle decides everything by himself."

"Heh." Changsun Jingxu sneered upon hearing the words, "Is this your sincerity?"

"If you don't make peace, I now have three parties. According to the method you said, Huainan is the only one left. Would a fool do such a business?"

"No." Fourteen said, "Uncle, that's not how the accounts are calculated."

"Then please tell me, Empress Empress, how to calculate it?"

"The combined strength of Huainan Road, Shannan East Road, and Shannan West Road is only 20." Fourteen said, "A war has just ended, and the soldiers of the three armies are in full swing. The court just doesn't want to fight, not that they can't fight. "

Listening to Fourteen's words, Changsun Jingxu's face became more and more ugly.

"Uncle, do the math yourself. How long can the 20 troops survive against the imperial army?"

"Crack." The tea cup in Changsun Jingxu's hand was knocked over, and the sound broke the silence in the hall.

"Of course." Fourteen said again, "Uncle doesn't want to see people dying, and neither does the court. People all over the world want to live a stable and happy life. That's why I'm sitting here now, discussing with Master how to Let us realize our common aspirations.”

The eldest grandson looked at Fourteen in vain, but said nothing.

"At the beginning, my grandmother made me swear in front of her that no matter what happens in the future, I will treat the members of the Changsun family and the Zuoqiu family well." Fourteen continued, "Uncle, it is also her old man's wish that you and I live in peace. .”

When the empress was mentioned, the corners of Changsun Jingxu's tightly pursed mouth loosened slightly, and her expression also relaxed.

"At the time when my uncle left God's capital early and my grandmother passed away, you probably didn't expect it." Fourteen's words were naturally a guess.

Although Changsun Jingxu is not a person who values ​​affection and righteousness, his admiration for the empress who raised him is from the bottom of his heart.When he left Shendu ahead of schedule and returned to Huainan Road, he put a substitute there, so he naturally listened to his eldest grandson Zhao'er's suggestion.

But he probably didn't expect that the eldest grandson Zhao'er, who also grew up with the empress, could be so ruthless that he directly forced the empress to death during the palace change.

"It's okay to make peace, but since it's a negotiation between the two parties, I have conditions." After a long silence, Changsun Jingxu said.

"Uncle, please tell me."

"Shannan Dongdao was originally the land under the jurisdiction of the late emperor when he was alive. It belongs to the Huainan Palace. Shannan West Road can be given to you, but Huainan Road and Shannan Dongdao are still under the jurisdiction of the Huainan Palace."

"Grandmother did this at the time to suppress the power of the feudal town and stabilize the court." Fourteenth said, "Now that the world is settled, it is no longer possible to separate the feudal town. Uncle, you have given the full power of Huainan to you, and the court has already made concessions." .”

"I helped you fight a battle, and you and your wife took Tule and Chimian into their pockets, but the king's fiefdom was reduced by more than half." The eldest grandson Jingxu's face was very bad, "The empress's move is no different from the robber's behavior ?”

"Uncle's words are wrong. You are not fighting for us, but defending your own country." Fourteen said, "The withdrawal of Shannan East Road and Shannan West Road is for the stability of the world. Only when order is unified can the world be great. Definitely, this ideal must be understood by my uncle without me reminding him."

……

The negotiations with the Huainan Palace lasted for ten days. During these ten days, Shisi and Xiao Yan not only had to deal with the eldest grandson Jingxu, but also had to fight with all the capable officials of the Huainan Palace.

But in the face of absolute strength, all struggles are in vain.Fourteen has nearly a million troops who have just retreated from the battlefield in her hands, which is her greatest confidence.

In the end, the Huainan Palace made a compromise, and everything proceeded as Fourteen originally said.The eldest grandson Jingxu proclaimed himself a minister to the court and also became his Huainan king.Mei Xingzhi and other assistant ministers are still the assistant ministers of the Huainan Palace, arranged by Changsun Jingxu himself.

This day is the fifth day of December in the tenth year of Yuanheng.At this point, the world has finally settled down, and the four seas have finally returned to one.

Fourteen rode on the fast horse and set foot on the way home.
