"Your Majesty, this... This is different from what our ancestors wished. If Yan Yun is not in the hands of my Song Dynasty, this will happen in the future."

"Emperor Brother" Zhenzong looked at Defang, "You will help me, right?"

Defang looked into Zhenzong's eyes, and didn't know what to say. Zhenzong held Defang's wrist, "I and Huangxiong are siblings. We promised to protect each other. Did Huangxiong forget?"

"I have not forgotten."

"Will the royal brother help me?"

Defang looked at Zhenzong for a long time, then nodded slightly, "Yes, Your Majesty."

"Brother Huang, General Li is my uncle in name. I don't want to hurt my family relationship with him because of this. He and those generals have to be persuaded by Brother Huang. In addition, Brother Huang and Mr. Kou have a very good relationship. Relatives, you go tell him that I will send Cao Li to go to the peace talks, so that the Liao Kingdom will return the captured cities, and the court can give them money and silk as compensation. As long as there is no war, I can give them every year, as long as it does not exceed 100 Wan, I can agree."

"100 million?" Defang looked at Zhenzong, "Your Majesty, it's too much, and the Liao people are now."

"One million yuan is nothing to me in the Song Dynasty. If there is another war, tens of millions will be invested every year. With such a heavy burden, the people will suffer."

"But, Your Majesty."

"Brother Huang, now you have hundreds of thousands of military power in your hands, and you have capable ministers and brave generals, but I believe that Brother Huang will not resist orders and deceive the emperor."

Hearing this, Defang looked at Zhenzong in front of him, and suddenly felt a dull pain in his heart. Yes, he has a heavy army in his hand, has capable ministers to help, and generals to follow. This is a taboo in the royal family. Zhenzong was forced to go to Chanzhou. With fear in his heart, and everyone seeking to fight, what will Zhenzong feel in his heart?The emperor is the emperor, and brotherhood is nothing before the imperial power. Defang doesn't blame Zhenzong, but the current situation makes people really unwilling, but there is no room for maneuver. I promised Zhenzong to protect him and never let him be holy. Intimidated, Defang sighed lightly, took a step back, took a deep breath, lowered her head and closed her eyes tightly, then bowed and cupped her hands and said, "The Great Song Dynasty belongs to His Majesty, how dare I resist orders and bully you, I would like to obey His Majesty's will!" .”

"I believe in the emperor." Zhenzong supported De Fang's shoulders with both hands, "I have the emperor to assist the government, and the Song Dynasty will surely prosper."

Defang exited the meeting hall, and several people surrounded him. Li Jilong asked, "Your Majesty, has your Majesty decided when to send troops?"

Defang sighed and said, "There will be no more troops."

"Will not send troops?" Li Jilong was shocked, "My lord, did your Majesty decide to negotiate peace with the Liao people?"

"Yes, make peace"

"My lord! How can we negotiate a peace! The last general will go to see His Majesty!"

De Fang stretched out his hand to stop Li Jilong, "General Li, Your Majesty's holy will has been decided, you and I are both His Majesty's ministers, we must not let Your Majesty's holy prestige be damaged."

"My lord! Then."

"General Li!" Defang looked at Li Jilong, "You and I have resisted orders and deceived the emperor, but the lonely king will never let this kind of thing happen in your majesty's dynasty. From now on, the lonely king has no good name in his heart. Your majesty today The decision is due to the fact that the lonely king failed to fulfill his duty of assisting the government. The matter has come to this point, and the only way to be loyal to the minister is to obey the holy will. From now on, the lonely king will bear all the guilt. Does General Li understand the meaning of the lonely king?"
