Seeing Li Yichen and Dian Wei walking into the reception room, Hu Yun turned around and looked at Li Yichen.

Before Yan Bo could introduce them, Hu Yun stood up and saluted, saying, "I guess this handsome young man is the leader of the Qin army, Mr. Li Yichen. He is indeed extraordinary. It is better to meet him in person than to hear about him."

Li Yichen was slightly stunned. In the past, the court officials he met would always put a big hat on him. Apart from scolding the rebels and arrogant accusations, there were no other two things in his mouth. This Hu Yun was quite interesting.

Li Yichen smiled faintly and said, "Lord Hu, you are so praising me, aren't you afraid that it will be heard by the court and you will be charged with collusion with the rebels."

Hu Yun smiled indifferently and said, "I am just speaking from the bottom of my heart, and every word is true. Besides me, there is no one from the court here."

Although Li Yichen was somewhat interested in Hu Yun, he didn't want to waste time, so he changed the subject and said, "Let's get back to the point. Lord Hu is here to discuss the deal with King Qing, right?"

Hu Yun nodded and said, "That's right, but after coming to Daqu County, I found that the people here are simple and honest, the people live and work in peace, and no one picks up things on the road. I admire Mr. Li's methods."

Li Yichen was slightly stunned. It seems that Hu Yun didn't come to find him right away. Since Hu Yun didn't make a big fuss, but came to Daqu County quietly, the Jinyiwei in Yuquan City didn't send back any news.

Li Yichen thought that Hu Yun was now in Yuquan City.

Li Yichen said with a cold look: "Mr. Hu is a member of the imperial court. You came to Daqu County so brazenly to inquire about the news. Aren't you afraid that I will kill you in anger!"

Hu Yun looked calm and calm: "As the saying goes, envoys should not be killed when two armies are fighting. Moreover, Mr. Li is broad-minded and different from ordinary people. How could he kill me for no reason?"

"That's not necessarily true. Maybe I am not as narrow-minded as Mr. Hu said. In that case, Mr. Hu will not be able to escape. By the way, is the ransom of the imperial court ready? Mr. Hu should feel lucky. If not for this... You are responsible for this transaction. I am afraid you would have been killed by now. "

Hu Yun laughed: "If not, how could I take risks easily? I cherish my life very much."

"The court has prepared 500 million silver taels, which are now placed in Yuquan City. I came here to inform Mr. Li that the transaction will be conducted in Luofengyuan in seven days. Please ask the Qin army to ensure the safety of our Prince Qing."

Li Yichen's heart moved. He and Jia Xu had recently studied the transaction location. Luofengyuan is a very suitable place.

Thinking of this, Li Yichen did not bargain and said lightly: "Okay, just as Lord Hu said, we will trade in Luofengyuan in seven days, and our army will guarantee Chen Qing's safety."

Hu Yun nodded, stood up and said: "In this case, I will take my leave. I will meet Master Li in Luofengyuan in seven days. I hope to see the elite Qin army under Master Li at that time."

After saying that, Hu Yun walked out without any hesitation, and the whole person looked very free and easy.

Dian Wei whispered in Li Yichen's ear: "My lord, do you want me to capture him?"

Li Yichen shook his head: "No need, the most important thing now is to trade smoothly and not to cause trouble."

Hu Yun slowly walked out of the gate of the county government office. Not far behind Qi, Li Chunfeng, who just came to the county government office, looked at Hu Yun with a thoughtful look on his face.

After a while, Hu Yun rode away on his horse. Li Chunfeng then walked into the county government office and came to Li Yichen to inquire about the identity of the person who had just left.

Li Yichen was a little surprised. Li Chunfeng usually just practiced hard and didn't care about other things. Why would he take the initiative to ask about Hu Yun today?

"This person is not simple. I sensed that there are some fluctuations in his magic power, but it is not very obvious. It is like a calm sea with turbulent waves hidden inside. He should be a magic cultivator, and his realm is not low."

Li Yichen said thoughtfully: "So that's it."

It seems that I still underestimated the foundation of the Beiting Dynasty. A mere imperial envoy is actually an extremely rare magic cultivator.

The next morning, Li Yichen personally led the three cavalry units of Baima Yicong, Jingsai Iron Cavalry, and Xiliang Iron Cavalry, and escorted Chen Qing with Jia Xu to Luofengyuan.

Li Yichen took his time on the way and arrived at Luofengyuan on the seventh day. This was an open area of ​​several miles in radius. Li Yichen was not afraid of any tricks from the other party. First, Chen Qing was still in his hands. Second, even if there was

No matter what happens, with three cavalry units at their side, they can still escape unscathed.

As soon as Li Yichen and others arrived at Luofengyuan, they saw Hu Yun standing alone in the wilderness not far away, waiting with a smile.

Less than 300 meters behind Hu Yun, there were at least 100,000 troops, with neat cavalry and infantry, lined up in a neat military formation, ready to fight, and full of momentum.

Li Yichen and Jia Xu walked forward, followed closely by Dian Wei, holding Chen Qing in his left hand like a chicken. Not to mention that Chen Qing was still in a state of severe injury, even if he was in his prime, Dian Wei could control him at will.

Hu Yun looked at the cavalry unit behind Li Yichen, which was well-equipped and full of murderous aura. At first glance, it was an elite division that had experienced hundreds of battles. The cavalry, which was only more than 10,000 people, faced 100,000 soldiers and horses without any fear. Instead, it was like a sharp arrow, ready to penetrate the enemy camp at any time.

"The elite Qin army is indeed worthy of its reputation! With such cavalry under his command, it is only natural that Master Li can sweep across Anshan."

Li Yichen had no intention of chatting with Hu Yun, but just said lightly: "I have brought Chen Qing. Where is the silver from the court? Take it out. Also, release the messenger of my Qin army."

Hu Yun nodded, turned around and waved behind him. A team of more than 20 people walked out from behind him. The two leading people carried a huge wooden box, and the others behind them escorted Wu Hu and walked towards Li Yichen and others.

Li Yichen squinted his eyes and looked at the more than 20 men dressed as ordinary soldiers. Among them, at least five or more were martial arts masters, and there might even be martial kings among them. It was still unknown. It seemed that the court was also afraid that he would not keep his word and regret after getting the ransom.

However, Li Yichen did not intend to play any tricks. The big knife on the other side was placed on Wu Hu's neck. If he moved a little, blood would splatter five steps away. For an insignificant Chen Qing, it was obviously not a good deal to let his subordinates betray their virtue.

Li Yichen looked at the wooden box in front of him and sneered: "Five hundred million taels of silver, just this box, does the court think that I, Li Yichen, am a fool?"

Hu Yun said calmly: "Don't worry, Mr. Li, this box does not contain silver, but silver notes worth five hundred million taels."

Hu Yun opened the box, and sure enough, there were neatly stacked silver notes in it, all with a face value of ten thousand taels, a total of fifty thousand.

Li Yichen did not count them, but looked at Hu Yun with a gloomy face and said, "I want cash, what does the court mean by giving me silver notes?"

Hu Yun said, "Mr. Li must know the weight of 500 million taels of cash. It is a long way from the capital to here. How much transportation capacity is needed to transport 500 million taels of cash? These silver notes can be exchanged at any bank in the Beiting Dynasty. Mr. Li can rest assured."

In fact, Li Yichen can use silver notes to directly recharge the system. Of course, this requires a currency recognized by this world, but the court obviously has a plan in mind. If he wants to exchange a large amount of cash, he has to go to many banks in major cities to exchange it.
