Aspirations for Nation and Beauty: Chapter 127 Confidence


At this time, the city of Longdong Mansion was decorated with lanterns and festoons, every household burned incense and bathed, and it looked like a celebration. After more than a year of rule by the Taiping Army, they returned to the embrace of the empire. In fact, the rule does not have many actions that touch the interests of all classes, but it is difficult to cooperate with those gentry who are from the bottom of the lower class, especially those who have a deep understanding of the empire. This is especially true of the conservative nobles of affection.

Now Li Wufeng, who is known as the hero of the empire and the governor of Northern Luzon, is personally overseeing the victory of the army. Even His Majesty's Third Highness came to Longdong to congratulate him. How can this not make the gentry cheer? ? Stepping into the city of Longdong, Situ Jun saw that the people who rushed to the streets to welcome him had mixed feelings. Such a huge and fortified city was swallowed by the Northwest Army even though he was not sure about it. Li Wufeng's attitude, but relying on his understanding of Li Wufeng's character, he dare not say that it is absolutely impossible to get the other party to withdraw from this land, but it is definitely impossible to make a deal without paying a considerable price.

Just as he was thinking about it, he heard Li Wufeng behind him say: "Your Highness, here we are, this is the City Guard's Mansion. I will stay here for the time being, Your Highness please."

The simple and clean gate, a plaque with five vigorous characters "Longdong City Shoufu" looks quite old, even the vermilion paint on the door seems to have peeled off a lot, the brass door knocker also looks a little gray, and the two stone lions Opening his teeth and claws, he is very energetic. This is the city guard's mansion of Longdong Mansion. Li Wufeng's temporary command post.

Seeing that Situ Jun seemed to have something on his mind, Wufeng didn't say much, and silently accompanied him into the main hall. After the servant brought hot tea, Situ Jun didn't say a word, as if he was thinking about some problem Question, the expression on his face was also slightly different from his usual sternness, with a little more hesitation.

There are only two people left in the lobby, and Wufeng is also carefully thinking about the other party's intentions this time. If the current situation of the empire is already extremely critical, especially when most of the Heshuo area has fallen, there is only a lonely Tianshui left. Still in the hands of the empire, and facing the two-line attack, if it hadn't been for the recovery of Longdong, Tianshui's situation would have been quite difficult, even if the opponent had the backing of the two armies from the Five Lakes region. After conquering Longdong, I just sent someone to greet him out of courtesy, but the other party agreed and said he wanted to visit Longdong. He kept silent all the time, obviously there was some undecidable problem bothering the other party, and he was unable to make a decision all the time, which made Wufeng feel a little uneasy amidst his doubts.

At this moment, Situ Jun is indeed thinking about a question that is difficult to decide. When he made the decision to visit Longdong, he had made up his mind to have a good talk with the princes in the west of the empire, and have a heart-to-heart talk. talk. He is not a person who likes to avoid reality. Since Li Wufeng has become a decisive force in the current political power of the empire, if he wants to achieve his goals, he has to deal with this guy, although he also knows that this guy is not a Kindness.

He felt that he could control the other party, at least he said that the conditions he proposed could impress the other party, and he was fully prepared for this, but when things came to an end, he hesitated again. After all, this is not a small matter, and according to the information I have, the guy opposite is obviously inextricably linked with several of my brothers. Although I can't fully understand the relationship between them, I can't hide the mystery Man, isn't he doing the same thing himself?

Can you convince the other party? Is the condition I put forward enough to make the other party tempted? Situ Jun asked himself repeatedly in his heart, he was still not absolutely sure in the end, but if he didn't try something, how would he know the result? It was only then that Situ Jun made up his mind to have a full-scale discussion with the other party.

The eyes of the two were raised almost at the same time, and they collided tacitly in the main hall. As well as the gazes of other flavors, both parties seemed to have discovered a similar kind of person at this moment, and their gazes were withdrawn, and both of them cast their gazes out of the window almost at the same time, as if to avoid this embarrassing exposure.

The air in the hall seemed to be congealed and stagnant, but the two of them couldn't find a suitable language to open up this extremely dull situation. Wufeng lowered his head, gently blown away the tea leaves floating in the tea bowl, took a sip, and half-closed his eyes, with a comfortable look on his face, as if he was savoring the fragrance of the tea leaves; Situ Jun stood In the center of the hall, he stared at the calligraphy hanging in the middle of the wall, "rarely confused", the four characters seemed to be full of unrestrained spirituality, quite a royal style, Situ Jun's attention seemed to be completely caught by this The vice calligraphy is captivating.

Time passed by every minute and every second. When Wufeng held up the teacup for the third time and handed it to his mouth, Situ Jun who had been staring at the wall in a daze suddenly said to himself: "It's rare to be confused, it's rare Confused, it's rare to be confused. Can you really be confused for a lifetime? Can you solve everything?"

Wufeng, who was about to taste tea, raised his eyebrows suddenly, and an inscrutable smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and said indifferently: "It depends on who it is, if it is a hermit who escapes from reality, or someone who has no desires and desires Fangwairen may be a good thing, but in my opinion, it seems that in the empire, even Fangwairen who have no desires and desires can hardly escape the shackles of this world. Ah."

Facing the other party's distorted explanation, Situ Jun turned around slowly and looked directly at the other party's eyes. The eyes are the windows of a person's soul. He wanted to see a clue from the other party's eyes, but what disappointed him was The other party's eyes are so plain, as if nothing has been said, but this is not enough to make him believe in the other party, he has always only believed in himself.

"Lord Li seems to be talking too much, why don't you speak more clearly, so how about making this king more clear?" Situ Jun also showed a faint smile on his face, and even the atmosphere in the hall seemed to be in a state of confusion. Be active a lot.

"Hehe, your highness is serious. What kind of person is your highness? How could you need a little minister's advice, but this little minister has been looking forward to your highness's explicit instructions." With a sly smile, Wufeng cleverly pushed the topic back brought to the other side.

He frowned secretly, then smiled and said: "Brother Li is too polite, since everyone is a sensible person, why do you have to play some riddles here? This king can say frankly that this time I came to Longdong for inspection. Those are all excuses, the main purpose of this king coming to Longdong is to meet Brother Li, hoping to get a satisfactory answer from Brother Li."

Wufeng's face gradually became serious, and he restrained his usual wanton smile: "There are only you and me here, Your Highness might as well open up and say that although Li Wufeng is not talented, he is willing to have a clear and honest relationship with His Highness." Let's have a heart-to-heart conversation, but I don't know if His Highness can trust Li?"

His heart was beating non-stop. Although Situ Jun was always calm and calm, he also felt a little dry at this time. He was a little surprised by the other party's frankness, but he was expected. Too much cover up, that's exhausting. Slowly nodding his head, Situ Jun slowly regained his composure, and after pondering his words, he said cautiously: "Brother Li is indeed straightforward, and I appreciate it very much, but this is a big matter, I don't know if Brother Li has ever Have you thought about it carefully?"

"Your Highness's words are inappropriate. Li has not made any promises on specific matters. Li is thinking that all treaties can only be reached when reciprocal conditions are ripe. If the prerequisites are lost, Even if a black and white agreement is reached on many things, it may still be a piece of waste paper, what do you think, Your Highness?" After blinking, Wufeng said calmly without changing his expression.

"Well said! A contract without preconditions is immature and unstable. I appreciate this. Brother Li is indeed a straightforward person. I am willing to deal with people like Brother Li. I can put anything on the table Said ~IndoMTL.com~ so as not to get off the table, and to be obedient and obedient, too obscene!" Situ Jun nodded in satisfaction, expressing his agreement with the other party.

"Since Your Highness also agrees with Li, I think we have a common language. I wonder if Your Highness knows what the prerequisites Li is referring to?" Wufeng was not confused by the other party's compliment, Asked slowly, but a pair of eyes fell on the other party's face.

With an uncertain face, Situ Jun knew that the other party was already testing his bottom line, and it should be said that the other party was testing his deepest thoughts. It's on me, but if I show all my hole cards, the opponent is still in a situation where they can advance and retreat, but this pushes myself to an embarrassing situation, how should I deal with it?

'Hmm, prerequisites? "He raised his head slightly, the expression on Situ Jun's face fluctuated a bit, but his words were unambiguous, "Brother Li is probably referring to whether this king can show the strength with a certain ability? "

"Hehe, Your Highness really understands people. Since His Highness is waiting to open up his heart, if Li keeps hiding it, it will appear that Li is too hypocritical." Wufeng chuckled, rubbed his chin subconsciously and said: "Li A certain businessman has a temperament, and he is unwilling to do the business at a discount. He needs to be rewarded for his efforts. To tell you the truth, the other highnesses have come to contact Li, and Li has also agreed. Is this the final decision? But it has never been decided."

Smiling lightly, Situ Jun was not moved by the other party's words, and said calmly: "Hey, brother Li, don't say that you have been waiting for this king's arrival. This king has self-knowledge, and it is not enough to make brother Li give up." Brother Li may wish to directly explain the summons of the other brothers if you have any questions."
