Work overtime

Chapter 113 The price of blood

The young man was not there at the time, and it was the two unreliable subordinates beside him who robbed the civilian girl.

Our side is just strategically and intentionally confusing the public.

After all, if the subordinates commit crimes, the leader must take the responsibility, there is nothing wrong with it.

According to the way he saw Chen Zhanghan in the morning, he was seriously injured.The face and arms were all painted, and they thought we were the victims.

The original press release read:
Our Chen Zhanghan was severely injured by a crowd of Tatar envoys.Our side issued a solemn statement, severely condemning the unilateral use of force by the Tatar side and demanding compensation.

Now how to turn it into a reverse plot: "Our side made a strong counterattack against the Tatar envoy's bullying of men and women"

Li Beichen and his two younger brothers secretly felt a little confused.

一直以来只听说，陈章含纨绔，欺男霸女，爱逛青楼，爱挑事揍翰林学士，没听说武功高强到如此爆表的程度。

"Excuse me, your lord, who are you?" The young man's tone was filled with displeasure.

Li Beichen's question was heart-pounding to the Tatar side.

To be honest, that can only show that a [-]v[-] is really a defeat, destroying one's own prestige and boosting others' ambition.

If you don't tell the truth, wouldn't that be a false complaint?Deliberately provoke trouble.

"Wei Wang Li Beiwang." The third prince said in a serious voice, his peach blossom eyes were as sharp as a falcon, and he did not hide the coldness and arrogance in his voice.

The young man was silent for a moment, and stopped talking to the third prince, and said in a low voice, "We are envoys, and we came here for the sake of friendship and diplomatic relations. Naturally, we can't win the son of an important court official for fighting in the street, and show off our prestige for a while, affecting the overall situation of the two countries."

This boy is unusual.

Li Beichen nodded slightly, "I thought it was the same. But last night, two of your men robbed the flower seller in the street, arousing public outrage. This is not something that friendly diplomatic relations should do. I should act recklessly on the land of the Ming Dynasty. Make the decision for the people. If you don’t take the punishment you deserve, I will think it was ordered by you Khan. Come and arrest them!”

The tone changed from calm to tough in an instant.

"Wait!" The boy stopped coldly, "Please let me punish them according to the rules of the tribe."

In just one breath, I heard continuous crisp sounds.Twenty lashes were whipped on the two of them respectively.

There were a few more bloodstains on the face, and the clothes were also damaged, with blood oozing in some places.

The two of them jumped into a rage, bared their teeth, but didn't dare to attack the young man's falcon-like eyes.

"Your Majesty, good relations between the two countries are the current common interests. They are newcomers and are reckless and ignorant. Please forgive me. Grassland people value dignity most, so this is my sincerity." The young man bowed his hands.

Of course, it was all rehearsed, just acting.

Isn't it just a few slaps?
Again no live broadcast.Only a few people saw it.Little life and arms and legs are important.

Back to the prairie, another hero.What's more, what's the point of sacrificing some dignity for the sake of lofty ideals?
"Your gentlemen have come from afar, and tonight I will hold a banquet to entertain you, to cleanse the dust for you, and suppress your shock."

Of course Li Beichen knew that the other party was just pre-emptively using a bitter trick.

It's just a lack of strength, so I can only slow down for a while.

The battle must be fought, and it will be fought severely in the future, so that the Tatar will kneel down and beg for mercy, bow his head and surrender, and dare not make mistakes!

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

The young man's face softened a bit, "I have another question to ask. Khan is willing to show friendship and kindness through marriage, and betroth his younger sister, Princess Qinmu, to His Majesty. What does Your Majesty think?"

"When it comes to getting married, follow the ancestral precepts."

Hearing Li Beichen's answer, the young man smiled slightly, as if the answer was within his expectation, "As far as I know, there was a precedent for Emperor Yonghe to make peace with the Korean people."

"If you follow the example of North Korea and pay tribute to this dynasty, this matter is negotiable. If your tribe is willing to take the lead in taking refuge in goodwill, our court will welcome you very much and give you the most friendly treatment." Li Beichen said quietly.

After hearing the emperor's haughty reply, the boy didn't change his face. "I have one more thing to tell your majesty. Khan hopes that your majesty will open up trade between the two countries, allow trade, and give us Tatar merchants equal treatment."

Isn't it because the exchange of what is needed is conducive to the development of the border trade economy, and the border was opened before?
You are fine.With wishful thinking, he wanted to directly burn, kill and loot by starting a war.

Don't talk about it, Li Beichen hasn't remembered it yet, and he gets annoyed when he mentions it.After the massacre of the caravan incident, Li Beichen did order the closure of the treaty ports and the prohibition of trade on the northern border.

"Go back and tell you, Khan, that the people of my dynasty will never be allowed to be treated unfairly on your land! There have been frequent incidents of unreasonable harassment and suppression of residents and merchants on the border of my dynasty.

Just recently, the legal merchants of our dynasty were brutally persecuted in your Tatar territory. You Khan must give me a satisfactory explanation!Otherwise, I will go out in person and make you pay the price in blood. "

Li Beichen deliberately emphasized the words "the price of blood".

The boy felt his chest was tight, so he answered bravely, "I will definitely bring it."

"If you want to resume cooperation, please tell you Khan to show your true sincerity." Li Beichen's voice revealed the power of a king, and it actually made the young man's heart chill, and his body trembled slightly.

What a young emperor!
"All envoys go back to the station to rest first. Someone will come to pick you up at three o'clock in the unitary hour." Li Beichen's tone was flat, but there was no doubt about it.

Although the words are extremely polite, the subtext is: If you don't want to cause trouble, just be obedient.

The expressions of the young man and his two attendants changed slightly, but the two attendants looked at the young man quietly as if asking for help, and seeing the dark eyes of the young man, they all fell silent and closed their eyes.

But the young man immediately recovered his faint smile, "Then I will thank you, Your Majesty."

After the Tatar envoy left, he talked with the third and sixth about what happened just now.

Li Beichen asked, "That Tatar boy, what do you think?"

"Unusual." The sixth child said, "I think that boy must be unusual."

The calmness in his tone was completely different from when he was acting in front of the Empress Dowager before.

"It's the same for the minister." This time, the third child was used as the repeater, and he echoed with the sixth child.

Li Beichen looked at the two live treasures depressedly, and smiled helplessly, "What do you think of the purpose of the Tatar's visit this time?"

The third child rested his chin in one hand, and tapped the table with the other, "Experiment."

"Exploring." The sixth child nodded calmly.

Li Beichen was a little speechless this time, "Speak humanly. Do you think they want to fight or make peace?"

"I want to fight." The third child blurted out.

"Want to make peace." Lao Liu blurted out.

"Tell me what you think about it."

Li Beichen rubbed his chin, and glanced at the two younger brothers, both of them looked grave.

It's hard to guess this person's heart.

The two brothers felt the same way at this time.It's hard to guess what the emperor means, does the emperor want to fight or make peace?
Suddenly the third child stood up, patted his chest, and said with a look of righteousness: "The matter of the emperor's brother is the matter of the younger brother. The emperor asked the younger brother to fight, and the younger brother galloped for three thousand miles, killing them all! Otherwise, how can I be worthy of the protection of my brother since childhood!"

Li Beichen looked up at his brother Lao Liu, implying that please stop being a repeater.

Unexpectedly, the sixth child also stood up, stood side by side with the third child, and solemnly echoed: "The matter of the emperor's brother is the matter of the younger brother. Protect my Ming Dynasty and go through fire and water. I will not hesitate!"

With the atmosphere here, it seems that we should shed a few tears, and then cry like Liu Guanzhang.

　A new month has begun.May everything go well with you.

　　Happy Children's Day, who is not a baby~
