    ,

    The night in Xingqing Mansion was very quiet.

    Only teams of soldiers patrolled the streets.

    Although Xingqing Mansion used to be the capital of the Xixia Kingdom, it can be considered a prosperous place in the Northwest, but compared with the important towns in the Central Plains, it is still not too prosperous.

    Although it is already summer, the nights in Xingqing Mansion are a bit cold.

    In the backyard of the government office, there are also imitation small bridges and flowing water!

    This was originally the palace of the Xixia peoplethe palace of the Xixia people was not very big. In the two back and forth battles, most of the buildings in the palace were destroyed, and the rest were changed into government offices by the Song people who occupied the place again  .

    Buildings with small bridges and flowing water generally only appear in the southeast region, but in the northwest, the cost required is not only two or three times that of Jiangnan, but it is estimated that it may be more than ten times.

    Of course, this has nothing to do with Di Qing and others, it is purely written by Xixia people.

    In the backyard, besides Lu Sen, Mu Guiying's mother and daughter, Di Qing, Zhe Jizu also came.

    Several people were drinking honey water while talking about tomorrow and the Xixia people.

    "The Xixia people invited me to have a meeting outside the city tomorrow." Lu Sen pointed to the point on the map, and said with a smile, "They still have to save face. Although this place is not far from their defense line Dingzhou, there seems to be no one around  High ground and places where ambush is easy."

    "It's close to Dingzhou, so if something happens, they will rush to help." Mu Guiying looked at the map and snorted disdainfully: "I guess he was scared by General Di."

    Di Qing quickly waved his hand: "It's not due to someone like Di, it's all due to the solidarity and sincerity of the soldiers who killed the enemy bravely."

    If it was Di Qing back then, he would have smiled proudly and accepted all the compliments.

    But now being disturbed by the literati, living in panic for half a year, and rescued from despair by Lu Sen, his disposition has changed a lot.

    Although he is still the same Di Qing who is loyal to the emperor and patriotic, and never dies with the barbarians, he is a little more tactful and gentle.

    Lu Sen always thinks that he has not changed much in this world, but this is because he is too 'greedy' and always looks at things from the perspective of the long river of history.

    But where he didn't pay attention, where he didn't notice, the change had already started quietly.

    Mu Guiying was slightly surprised, but didn't say anything after that.

    Di Qing's change was a bit novel to her, but it didn't mean much.

    Lu Sen didn't notice the change in Di Qing's personality. He was not familiar with Di Qing at first, and the number of times he met was not too much. It was more like a gentleman's conversation: "Tomorrow General Di will bring 50,000 people with me to meet those Xixia people.  Then Marshal Mu took 30,000 soldiers and horses to detour to the side of Dingzhou from this road. Jinhua used aircraft to conduct reconnaissance in the air, and tried to help Marshal Mu avoid the enemy's reconnaissance rangers."

    "General Mu ambushed their reinforcements directly?" Di Qing was obviously very excited, but he said in his mouth: "Will you leave something for the ministers in the court?"

    "What's the reason?" Lu Sen asked back.

    Di Qing said with some fear: "I didn't even talk about it, and I just wanted to get rid of the other party. After the matter is over, if they disagree with you, they will probably regard this matter as a stain on Master Lu and refer to you.  "

    "They dare not." Lu Sen smiled.

    Zhe Jizu said from the side: "General Di, please rest assured, if there is anyone in this world who dares to ignore the wishes of civil servants, who dares to go out, and refuses to grant military orders, probably only Daoist Lu."

    Di Qing was still a little worried.

    To be honest, Di Qing started as a bandit soldier after all. Although he also learned some characters and read some military books later, he is still very poor in terms of political sense.

    Otherwise, in real history, even though he was already a privy envoy, he was still scared to death in the Buddhist hall by the few words of the civil servants.

    However, seeing the disapproving expressions of other people, Di Qing gradually felt relieved.

    Lu Sen continued: "Tomorrow, I will trouble General Zhe to stick to Xingqing Mansion. If I don't come here in person, no one will be allowed to open the city gate.

    Zhe Jizu was stunned for a moment: "Really Lu means that the Xixia people may secretly send troops to attack Xingqing Mansion in the name of peace talks?"

    "Soldiers are tricky." Lu Sen said with a chuckle: "We can send troops to Dingzhou, why didn't they send troops to Xingqing Mansion? They will definitely think: Anyway, it's not a waste of time to try, in case it happens  Woolen cloth?"

    Di Qing nodded and said, "Indeed, barbarians never keep their promises when they speak."

    "But when I was in the capital, I heard that the men in the north made promises."This is a private matter of a certain person, and has nothing to do with you." Lu Sen looked into the other person's eyes, and said in a light tone, "May I ask for your surnames and official taboos."

    "Shi Bing, the General Who Conquers the South." The middle-aged man cupped his fists.

    But the young man said: "The minister of rites did not hide Ade, he has met Master Lu."

    Hearing the other party's name, Lu Huiqing was a little surprised, and asked, "Did you hide Ade? The smartest genius in Xixia?"

    It's not hidden. Ade smiled leisurely, very proud.

    Lu Sen ignored him, but looked at the middle-aged man, Shi Bing, and asked, "It's getting late, let's get straight to the point, you two make peace, what do you want to talk about?"

    "Renren Lu speaks quickly, which is very different from those literati in the Song court." Meizang Ade's appearance is a bit gloomy and fierce. If it was in later generations, such an appearance would be quite popular, but now, it is not so  Into the mainstream aesthetics of the Northern Song Dynasty: "You just come to our Xixia, why bother to be sulking at the Song court by those bird people."

    Lu Sen glanced at the young man, and then at Shi Bing: "You two, who is the head of the peace talks?"

    "It's my official." Shi Bing looked at Ade helplessly, and then he said to Lu Sen: "Really Lu, let's open the skylight and speak honestly. What your country has done recently has hurt our country very much."  The heart of the Lord, he is very friendly to Song Ting, but you actually betrayed your faith and were cruel and unprovoked. Not only did you kill the people of Xixia, but you also took away the Xingqing Mansion.  With a little kindness, please return the Xingqing Mansion to us, and then compensate me for the loss of Xixia."

    When Lu Huiqing heard this, her fists clenched subconsciously.

    He had never seen such a shameless person, who dared to say such upside-down words in broad daylight and under the open sky.

    Still need face?

    Lu Sen, on the other hand, was very calm. To be honest, he had seen this kind of scene too many times.

    Someone took out a bottle of washing powder, dared to bomb millions of people, and dared to call himself a teacher of justice, what is this!

    Lu Sen asked with a smile: "Then how much compensation do you want?"

    "The annual tribute is 300,000 yuan, 100,000 bolts of silk, 10,000 virgins, 10,000 catties of copper, iron, silver, and gold." Shi Bing took out a roll of paper from his shirt and spread it out on a low table: "We have already planned  Good paper, just wait for Master Lu to seal it."

    Year-old tribute refers to the price every year!

    Lu Sen picked up the document and looked at it for a while, then crumpled it up and threw it aside.

    The two people on the opposite side were suddenly furious, and Mu Zang Ade moved forward subconsciously, and he looked at Lu Sen sternly.

    But Shi Bing said coldly: "Really Lu, you don't seem to be here to negotiate peace, but rather to find fault."

    "It's you who want us to make peace." Lu Sen stood up: "But from the looks of you, it seems that you want to force us to continue fighting. What? Do you think we Song people are easy to bully? Lu Langzhong, let's go.  "

    After finishing speaking, Lu Sen turned around and left.

    Lu Huiqing subconsciously felt that this was not good, but now that he is not the chief officer, he cannot interfere with Lu Sen's decision, so he can only stand up and follow.

    Just when Lu Sen turned around, Bu Zang Ade jumped up, pointed at Lu Sen and shouted: "If you dare to leave, I will immediately let the army trample all of you into a pulp."

    Upon hearing this, more than a hundred guards beside him immediately formed a round shield formation, guarding Lu Sen in the middle, and followed him back.

    Lu Sen walked a few steps, turned around and said, "You can fight if you want to, but I know very well that you are just snarky insiders. I will wait for you in the camp for at most one more day. If you still haven't figured out how to speak, you don't have to fight anymore."  Talked."

    After finishing speaking, Lu Sen left.

    Seeing Lu Sen's 'arrogant' appearance, Wuzang Ade stretched out his hand and pointed vigorously: "Blow the whistle, let the army charge me"

    But at this time, Shi Bing stretched out his hand and pulled Wuzang Ade back to his side heavily, and said angrily: "Minister Wuzang, remember that you are only an adjutant, and I am the chief officer for this reconciliation, please don't go beyond me and give orders.  "

    Didn't hide Ade turned his head and looked at Shi Bing angrily.

    But Shi Bing looked at him without flinching, and finally did not hide Ade's gaze.

    When Lu Sen returned to the camp, Lu Huiqing exhaled and said, "Really Lu, your words are too sharp and too risky. What if you provoke the other party to do something?"

    "Negotiating depends on who has the most momentum." Lu Sen said with a smile: "If you make them feel that you are easy to bully, things will be difficult to handle. As for the question of their hands If they dare to do it, why would they negotiate."

    Lu Huiqing was stunned: "You mean, they are actually afraid of us? ?
