In the evening, Tang Yin summoned several important ministers to his study to discuss peace with Ningguo.

During the last negotiation, Qiu Zhen's opinion was "absolutely not allowed". This time, Qiu Zhen made a 180 degree turn in his attitude and said to Tang Yin, "the king should agree to negotiate peace."

"Why?" Tang Yin raised her eyebrows and asked.

"The king's welcoming the emperor into the wind has offended the two great powers of Sichuan and Zhen. Although the Allied forces of the two countries dare to attack now, it does not mean they dare not come in the future. Therefore, the king should agree to negotiate peace, accept peace and affinity, first stabilize the relationship between China and Ningguo, and then make other arrangements." Qiu zhengse said.

Other ministers nodded as they listened and felt that what Qiu Zhen said was reasonable.

Tang Yin didn't answer, but turned the conversation and asked with a smile, "Qiu Zhen, I heard you've been having a private meeting with Princess Ningguo all afternoon. Are you attracted to the princess?"

Qiu Zhen was shocked, but his face was still calm. He said firmly: "first, the minister is to settle the princess according to the king's order, take the princess familiar with the internal environment of the house, and arrange the food, clothing, housing and transportation of the princess, which is what the minister should do. Second, the princess wants to marry the king, not the minister. The minister dare not have unreasonable thoughts and will not be moved."

"Really?" Tang Yin raised her eyebrows with a smile. If you don't have ghosts in your heart, you'll really see ghosts! After spending so much time with Qiu Zhen, how could he not understand Qiu Zhen's surname? If he didn't have that mind, he would only scoff at his questions. How could he be wordy and list one, two or three.

It turns out that Qiu Zhen is not a saint. There are times when he moves his heart! Tang Yinyue thinks it's funny. Qiu Zhen used to make trouble for himself. Now if he doesn't use Yan yinghan to make trouble for him, he's really sorry for himself.

Tang Yin was in a good mood at the thought of this.

"Alas!" He sighed softly and said, "all the ministers of the Manchu Dynasty have married and established their families, and there are many wives and concubines, but Qiu Xiang is still alone. I'm really worried! Originally, I wanted to promise the princess to Qiu Xiang..."

Ah? When Qiu Zhen heard the speech, his eyes lit up and looked at Tang Yin without blinking. Is the king not joking in the court this morning, but really wants to marry Yan yinghan to himself?! His heart began to beat faster and his blood gushed up his head.

Looking at his eyes, Tang Yin almost laughed, but he immediately held back, sighed and said, "everyone should know that the biggest enemy of our country is not the state of Sichuan, let alone the state of Zhen, but the close country of Ning. If you give the princess of Ning to Qiu Xiang, I'm really afraid that Qiu Xiang will have mercy on Ning and his position will change!"

Tang Yin was not joking, but really had such concerns. Qiu Zhen was the person he trusted most. If he wanted to consider things from the standpoint of Ningguo and give advice for himself, the consequences would be unimaginable.

Qiu Zhen stirred his soul to fight a cold war. Without saying a word, he fell to his knees with a thump and knocked his head forward: "the king has killed my minister! My minister has already made an oath. Even if I die for the king and the wind, I will not give up. If my minister has two hearts and two minds, I would like to be struck by thunder and there is no place to bury me!"

Hearing the speech, Tang Yin and all the officials around him were moved. People bowed their hands and said, "king, Qiu is loyal to the king. Heaven and earth can learn from him!"

Tang Yin got up, walked to Qiu Zhen and helped him up. Then he grinned and said, "Qiu Zhen, what are you nervous about? I just have such concerns, but I didn't say you would really do that." After a pause, he shrugged and pretended to be helpless: "in order to dispel my doubts, the princess can't give it to you. I'd better accept it reluctantly."

Go! Qiu Zhen almost vomited blood on the spot. The king said a big deal, but he didn't say it.

He frowned and asked suspiciously, "I don't know, what title will the king give the princess?"

"What position..." Tang Yin held his chin for a long time and asked, "Zong Yuan, according to the rules, how do you divide the monarch's harem?"

Zong Yuan smiled and arched his hands and said, "one queen, three wives, nine concubines, twenty seventh wife and eighty-one queen."

Tang Yin gave a cry and said casually, "then return the princess to the eighty-one female imperial palace!"

Qiu Zhen's eyebrows were about to twist into a pimple and said in a low voice, "Your Majesty, let the dignified Princess be the queen. This... Is not quite suitable?!"

Tang Yin smiled, glanced at Qiu Zhen and said slowly, "it's a compliment to let Princess Ning be the queen of the king here!"

"..." Qiu Zhen was silent, and a sigh came out of his heart.

Tang Yin was more amused when he looked at his unconcerned appearance, deliberately hanging Qiu Zhen's appetite. He stopped talking about it, sat back on the collapse, spread the peace treaty on the table, then waved to the ministers and said, "everyone come and sit down and see if there is anything in this peace treaty that needs to be modified."

Shangguan Yuanji said: "Your Majesty, this peace treaty only says that Ningguo will cede Hedong county to our country. Here, Weichen thinks it's inappropriate."

"Oh?"

"Weichen felt that Ningguo should publicly admit that Hedong county is the territory of Fengguo and will never commit crimes against each other in the future."

"Well, that makes sense." Tang Yin picked up his pen and drew a circle where Shangguan Yuanji said.

Zhang Zhe said, "as for the compensation, Ningguo should leave room. The king doesn't have to add gold and silver. He just needs to ask for 5000 more war horses and 10000 cattle and sheep!"

The war horses, cattle and sheep are all missing from the Fengguo. Tang Yin nodded while listening and drew a circle on the peace treaty.

After people's suggestions and additions, the peace treaty was also smeared with circles everywhere.

At the end of the discussion, the people checked it and confirmed that it was correct. Then they finalized the peace agreement and entrusted Zhang Han to have a detailed discussion with Dahong Lu Hongluo of Ningguo.

Zhang Han is a senior scholar of Fengguo. Although he is only in his early 40s, he is knowledgeable, knows both ancient and modern times, and is quick thinking and eloquent. The most important thing is that he is not publicized, amiable, polite, without the sour taste of a scholar or the shelf of a senior official. This is what Tang Yin likes most, He felt that it was also most appropriate for Zhang Han to consult with Hong Luo about the peace talks between the two countries.

After explaining Zhang Han, Tang Yin said to Zhang Xin, the internal history of millet control: "Zhang Xin, tomorrow you will go to Hedong County in person and carefully review the annual grain harvest there. In the future, my * * grain mainly comes from Hedong. I don't want loopholes and moths there, so you can't be careless when you check!"

Zhang Xin is one of the few old ministers of Fengguo in the current imperial court. He is smooth and has two sides. He has gradually won the trust of Tang Yin. Although he is not very good, he still has real talent and learning. He has served as the internal history of grain management in Fengguo for so many years and has rich experience. He can't see sand in his eyes.

He respectfully saluted Tang Yin and said, "don't worry, my king. I will check the grain production of Hedong County clearly and plainly, so that the king won't lose a grain!"

Zhang Xin is good at investing in people. He knows that what Tang Yin values most is grain production. This time, he can let himself go to Hedong County for examination, which also shows his trust in him. He held his breath in his heart and prepared to go to Hedong for a big fight to further win the favor of the king. In addition, the court ministers were ordered to go to the place, from which there were many sweets to earn.

After discussing all the important business, Tang Yin breathed a sigh of relief. Then he remembered the Lingwu college and asked Qiu Zhen, "Qiu Zhen, how's the Lingwu college going?"

Qiu Zhen replied with an arched hand: "Weichen has selected the address of the college. It's in the east city, not far from the palace. As for the teachers who teach art, Weichen wants to screen in the army."

"Yes!" Tang Yin nodded and said, "after the final candidate is determined, show me the list."

"Yes! King!"

Tang Yin looked around at the crowd and suddenly remembered something. He asked, "do you know that the doctor ordered Montaigne?"

Everyone was stunned and didn't understand why the king asked. People nodded one after another and said, "you know."

Tang Yin's eyes coagulated and youyou said, "what do you think if you get rid of this person?"

I don't know how Montaigne offended the king. Everyone looked at each other and didn't dare to answer.

At this time, not talking is tantamount to disapproval. Tang Yin raised her eyebrows and asked suspiciously, "do you think it's wrong?"

Qiu Zhen said, "king, Montaigne is the son of Monroe. He has a special identity. What crime does the king want to put him to death?"

What's the charge? Tang Yin really doesn't know what charges he can charge Montaigne. This man is too dogmatic and good at following the rules. It's not easy to get hold of him.

After thinking for a while, he said, "it's up to the hidden arrow to deal with it?"

Sending a hidden arrow is an assassination without light. The ministers frowned more tightly.

Shangguan Yuanji said, "Your Majesty, just after the emperor settled down in Yancheng, a minister was suddenly killed. Isn't this too brazen? It's easy to be confessed!"

Tang Yin frowned and waved, "don't reason with me. I understand everything. That's why I discussed with you how to solve this guy without leaving any trouble!"

All the officials were silent again.

The king said, "if there is any way to be patient with the king, he still has no way to make mistakes."

Saying is not saying. Tang Yin waved distractedly and said, "OK, OK, I see. If there's nothing wrong, you all go back!"

"Yes! King! I'll leave!" Seeing that the king did not insist on his own way, the people hissed one after another and withdrew from the study one after another.

After the ministers left, Tang Yin called Shangguan Yuanwu and asked him to find Cheng Jin.

After a short time, Cheng Jin walked into the study, saluted Tang Yin and said, "what's your order?"

Tang Yin really wants to give Cheng Jin a secret order to quietly solve Mengtian's trouble, but he also knows that the ministers' concerns are not unreasonable, and he can't do it arbitrarily now. He asked, "where are you holding yuan Ziyi?"
