Early the next morning, Wang Feng came to Fusu's residence early, waiting for Fusu to give him an answer as soon as possible.He didn't dare to stay in Shangjun City for too long. On the one hand, all the officials and people in the city looked at him with hostile eyes. He was afraid that he would be killed by those who hated the court; Hu Hai and Zhao Gao suspected that they had already taken refuge in Fusu, and it would be unlucky for them to return to Xianyang, so he wanted to finish the matter and return to Xianyang as soon as possible.

But the more anxious he was, the more comfortable Fusu seemed to be, and he actually let him in when the sun was high.After entering the lobby, Wang Feng saw Fusu sitting in front of a small table full of wine and vegetables, enjoying his lunch.Seeing Wang Feng coming in, Fusu didn't stop, and continued to eat without saying a word, until he was full of wine and food, then smiled at Wang Feng: "I discussed with a group of subordinate officials last night. One night, I didn’t fall asleep until this morning, but I woke up hungry, and Wang Zongzheng waited for a long time.”

At this time, Wang Feng also felt that he was very hungry, but he didn't dare to express his complaints to Fusu, so he said: "The prince takes care of everything every day, and the villain should wait a while. I don't know if the prince can agree to the villain's proposal on behalf of the emperor. What about the peace talks?"

Fusu waved his hands and ordered people to remove all the food and wine, and then said: "Huhai sent a large army to attack my Shangjun that day, he really wanted to kill me, and I also sent a large army to attack Taiyuan and Shanggu. It seems that I should also be a traitor like Chen Sheng and the others. The conflict between us cannot be completely resolved with just a few words."

"Then how can the prince believe in the sincerity of the emperor's peace negotiation?" Wang Feng asked hurriedly, hearing the possibility of peace negotiation from Fusu's words.

"If you want to negotiate a peace, Hu Hai has to show some sincerity. Don't you think there is something wrong with how you address me? Now that Hu Hai is the emperor, you call me, his elder brother, the prince. Shouldn't this be changed? " Fusu looked at Wang Feng and said.

"This... According to the prince, no, how should the adults change it?" Wang Feng also felt that this title was indeed inappropriate, so he asked.

"This is the first condition. If Hu Hai grants me the throne, as the emperor, it's not too much for me as an elder brother to have the position of princes and kings, right?"

"It's not difficult. The villain will tell the emperor. When the time comes, the lord will definitely be granted the throne. I don't know what other conditions the lord has." Wang Feng breathed a sigh of relief when he heard Fusu's conditions. Hu Hai still didn't care about it.

"Secondly, I still have to control my current army. As for the food and pay of the army, I need the court to pay part of it on my behalf." Fusu easily said a very shameless condition, that he retains the control of those troops. But he asked Hu Hai to support this army for himself.

Sure enough, after hearing this condition, Wang Feng's face was full of embarrassment, but he didn't dare to veto Fusu's proposal, nodded and said: "This villain will also tell the emperor. If the emperor agrees to these two conditions of your lord, will your lord be willing to live in peace with the court?" He said looking at Fusu earnestly.

"No hurry, I still have a third condition." Fusu continued to say relaxedly, but it frightened Wang Feng's heart again. The second condition just now was difficult enough for him. How difficult is the third condition.But Fusu didn't look at Wang Feng's face at all, and said to himself: "Now the emperor of the counties and counties I occupy wants to declare to the world, agreeing that I will govern these places, and I will also collect the taxes of the people here. And I All the civil and military officials under his command can be downgraded by one rank according to the regulations of the imperial court, but their salaries must also be paid by the imperial court. As long as they can agree to these conditions, Fusu will naturally submit to the imperial court and will not make things difficult for him, Hu Hai, Wang Zongzheng, you Just inform Hu Hai of my conditions and hope he will reply as soon as possible."

Hearing that the third condition was so harsh, Wang Feng was really afraid that Fusu would come up with a fourth and even harsher condition. Now he was relieved to hear Fusu say this, but he was not sure whether Hu Hai would agree these conditions.But this is not within his responsibility to ask questions, so Wang Feng nodded hurriedly and said: "The villain will go back to Xianyang and report all the conditions of the adults to the emperor. The adults only need to wait in Shangjun City." He bowed to Fusu and left the lobby.He didn't stop there, and went straight to his residence after leaving the lobby, and went out of the city to Xianyang with his servants, regardless of the road that was more difficult because of the snow.

When Wang Feng left the lobby, Zhang Liang and Chen Ping walked out from behind the screen, and they came to Fusu and said in admiration: "The prince is really powerful, not only did he express the conditions we came up with in such an unquestionable way Come out, and also added the last one, the two of us really admire."

Fu Su wryly smiled and said: "Today's behavior is really inconsistent with my character, and only the two of you would think of dragging him to think more. And I also think those conditions are unreasonable, and I don't know Hu Hai Will you agree to this condition?"

"Since Hu Hai sent someone to negotiate a peace, it means that he is not sure in his heart that he can take me down from Shangjun, so even if he doesn't agree to us, we will lose." Chen Ping said after taking a look at Zhang Liang.

Seeing that Chen Ping had only said half of what Chen Ping said, Zhang Liang knew that he was keeping it for himself, so he continued: "Besides, since the prince made a request, Hu Hai can also make a request to the prince, or ask the prince to lower some conditions, as long as the prince is willing." Talking to him is always good news for him. But at the same time, we can also see what he thinks from Hu Hai's reaction. If he agrees to the prince's request without counter-offering, then he It must be because he valued his attack on Chu this time, but at the same time, it can also be seen that the peace talks between him and the prince today are only temporary." After speaking, he looked at Chen Ping and asked him to continue the second half of the conversation.

Chen Ping smiled at Zhang Liang, and then said: "If he sends someone to bargain with the prince, it can be seen that he really wants to make peace with the prince, and he also has a lot of horses in his hand, so he is not afraid of the prince. I am my enemy. But in my opinion, it is more likely that Mr. Zhang said it. Maybe in a few days, the imperial court will fully agree to the prince's request and bring the canonized imperial edict. We don't need to call you the prince anymore, but the king." Chen Ping laughed at the end.

Fu Su also couldn't help laughing and said: "Actually, I also think that the title of this prince should be changed after the death of the first emperor, but I can't bring it up because you keep calling me that, this time I use Xianyang to make a change of title. Now we are waiting here for Xianyang's response. Once I have the opportunity, I will personally lead the troops to capture Xianyang.

After nearly half a month of torment, Wang Feng finally rushed back to Xianyang from Shangjun.He didn't really feel relieved until he saw the gate of Xianyang City.But then he thought that he hadn't completed the task this time, instead he asked Fusu to put forward so many reasonable conditions. He didn't know whether the emperor would punish him. Thinking of Hu Hai's cruel methods, Wang Feng suddenly regretted coming back so soon .But since he had already arrived, he couldn't delay. After entering Xianyang City, he went straight to the palace.

Hu Hai sat on the throne very casually, listening to Wang Feng's report on the whole process of the trip to the county with his expression unchanged.Hearing that Fusu asked Wang Feng to wait at the gate of the city first, and then asked him to wait outside the mansion for half a day the next day, and then asked him to watch him eat, he couldn't help showing annoyance on his face. After Fusu put forward the three conditions, his face was completely distorted by anger: "Fusu, you are so courageous, even my envoys dare to tease you, and you also put forward so many reasonable conditions, you are really deceiving me. Do you dare to send troops to level Shangjun?" He said angrily and threw all the memorials on the dragon case on the ground.

"Why did the emperor get so angry because of Fusu's words?" Zhao Gao who was listening on the side said in a timely manner, "The real purpose of the emperor sending Wang Zongzheng to negotiate peace this time is to stabilize Fusu and not It’s not that we really want to accept him as a subject. As long as our army wipes out Chu, the next one to deal with is Fusu, a bastard who doesn’t know what to do. What’s the point of letting him be proud for a few days now?”

When Hu Hai heard it, he felt that what Zhao Gao said was reasonable, but then he said again: "Zhao Qing, you proposed the order of destroying Chu first and then taking over the county. Of course you have to insist on this point. Why don't we first How about sending troops to remove Fusu, and then send troops to the south?" As he spoke, he stared firmly at Zhao Gao, wanting him to give him an answer.

Zhao Gao smiled calmly: "Emperor Ying Mingbi, can't you see the reason why I proposed this plan? Now that there is civil strife in Chu, the people in Chu must be unstable, and I, Daqin, will definitely be sure if we take the opportunity to attack. As for Shangjun, Fusu has been in business for several years, and it has been united. It is not easy to take it down. We will destroy Chu first, and then take Shangjun. I don't know how long it will take, maybe when the Shangjun is taken down, the internal strife in Chu has subsided, and we will attack Chu again like the Shangjun. The emperor should be clear about the difference between the two. "

When Hu Hai heard what Zhao Gao said, he also felt that there was some truth in it, so he said: "What Zhao Qing said is consistent with what I think, since this is the case, I will agree to Fusu's request for these reasons, and tomorrow I will send someone to Promulgate the decree, just give him a king of the Northland. I don't know who to send to go?"

Zhao Gao said with a smile: "Since Wang Zongzheng went there last time, let's bother him again this time."

As soon as his words fell, Wang Feng's face was full of sadness. He didn't expect that he hurried back to Xianyang, and he had to go back to Shangjun just after he came back.
