Chapter 93

"Your Majesty, I am obviously afraid of Zhang Chun's arrival, and my intention to leave is obvious, but I am just bargaining with us at this moment." In the Jiannu Central Army camp, Dorgon said what he said to Li Xin.

"Yes, Li Xin is a hero, and he will not do anything without benefits." Huang Taiji nodded and said, "If you don't leave at this time, can you settle the score with him when we decide a winner? No matter what, as long as you wait until that time, Li Xin will definitely die. So he can only leave now."

"Your Majesty, you can't ignore Li Xin's threat." Fan Wencheng also said after hearing this: "This man is treacherous and good at sending surprise troops. Once he really discusses with Zhang Chun, it is not impossible to set off from Pi Island and attack our rear."

"What the sir said is very much, but it is obviously impossible to give him so many benefits." Huang Taiji said unwillingly. Obviously, he needed Li Xin to leave Dalinghe City, but if Li Xin got such great benefits, wouldn't he be suspicious of a enemy, and these things were not available at will.

"The so-called asking for a price all over the place is to pay it back." Fan Wencheng said slowly: "Hehe, since he dares to ask for a price, that's good. If he doesn't want the price, the slave will be worried about this person's sincerity."

"Yes, if he asks something casually, it means he doesn't want to withdraw his troops at all." Huang Taiji nodded and said, "But, this is what he said again. He has too many things, so I don't want to give them to him at all."

"Then I'll just send someone to talk about it." Fan Wencheng said with a smile.

"Fourth brother, it depends on you." Huang Taiji thought for a while and said.

"I wonder how much the emperor is preparing to pay?" Dorgon did not dare to be negligent. After pondering for a while, he asked, "I can have a constitution." He really didn't dare to make up his mind in this matter.

"Ten thousand war horses, twenty thousand bows and arrows, and fifty thousand stones of food and grass. As for armor, you can just do this!" Huang Taiji immediately set his tone.

"I will do it now." Dorgon thought for a while and said, "When I go back to the emperor, when I return to the camp, I met the soldiers coming from Dalinghe City. I think I have something to discuss with Li Xin."

"Oh! Is this kind of thing happening?" Huang Taiji was stunned when he heard this and quickly said, "It seems that our family is paying attention to Li Xin. Zu Dashou probably also wants to get Li Xin's support. If he convinces Li Xin, the situation will be unfavorable to us."

"Don't worry, Li Xin was not so easily convinced by Zu Dashou." Fan Wencheng said quickly: "Who is Li Xin? His father was killed by Chongzhen, so it is difficult to return to the Ming Dynasty. Even if Zu Dashou convinced Li Xin with his righteousness, the emperor should not forget that the most powerful force in Li Xin's army now, except for the 1,000 elites around him, is the eight thousand elites obtained from Dalinghe City. After Li Xin's training during this period, these people have already formed an initial army. These people are extremely disgusted with Zu Dashou. Therefore, I think that once Li Xin surrenders to Zu Dashou, these people may not agree. However, it is still possible for them to cooperate with each other."

"In this way, there is no need to worry in a short period of time. Fourteenth brother, just talk to Li Xin according to this situation." Huang Taiji nodded.

Dorgon was about to leave, and another minute book came to report that Zu Dashou invited Li Xin to the banquet, which changed his expressions again, but no matter what, everyone could only wait and see.

In Dalinghe City, He Kegang and others gathered together. When they heard Li Xin agreeing to come to the banquet without hesitation, Zu Dashou's expression changed. He hesitated for a moment, but did not speak, but asked He Kegang to go down to prepare for a banquet without mentioning it.

"Master, He Kegang is lying." Zu Zerun looked at He Kegang's departure back and sneered: "In fact, today I don't know that my father sent someone to see Li Xin, and there is another person who has gone there."

"Who?" Zu Dashou's face changed and he pointed to the north of the city. In Dalinghe City, except for Zu Dashou, only Jiannu was interested in Li Xin.

"That's right." Zu Zerun said with a hint of coldness on his face, "The news from the spy said that Li Xin and the messenger of Jiannu were very happy. But he did not hear the content of the conversation between the two. However, his father, judging from the situation, Li Xin was dissatisfied with the court's reward to him, so he might defect to Jiannu! This matter must be guarded against!"

"Probably not!" Zu Dashou hesitated and said, "I invite him to Dalinghe City. Didn't he come here happily?"

"Father, he is confusing you. Think about it, what will you do if the emperor issued an edict and accepted your military power?" Zu Zerun used his own judgment and persuaded him: "If it's not done well, this Li Xin first came to confuses you, and then took the opportunity to launch a surprise attack on my Dalinghe City, holding your and my head as the rank of promotion! Have you never heard of it? The Lord of Jiannu, Tai Tai, once said that Li Xin would be the king when he returned to recruit Li Xin? How can others to endure such rewards? Father, he will be in trouble and will take this opportunity to kill Li Xin. His father is in charge of his army and fights to the death with Jiannu. The child is already preparing a knife and axe driver on the left and right sides. As long as Li Xin drinks poisonous wine, his father smashes the cup as a sign and rushes out together to kill Li Xin."

"This matter, hey! Dalinghe City is of great importance. I cannot ruin Dalinghe City in his hands because of this matter. Alas, just do this as you said! Be careful." Zu Dashou thought about it, but he still did not experience the temptation to hold military power. At this time, only by holding military power can he feel safe. Zu Dashou made countless enemies in the court. If there is no soldiers in his hands at this moment, anyone can control him. At this time, a nameless Li Xin actually held heavy troops. This is naturally his opportunity, so how can he let it go. Just as Zu Zerun said, at worst, all the charges would be pushed to Li Xin's head in the future.

"I'll do it now." Zu Zerun's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he sneered in his heart: "Li Xin, let's see how you can escape from my palm today." He didn't mention the arrangements now.

In the evening, Li Xin came with only three or five personal soldiers and Gao Meng on war horses. Zu Dashou also led the Guanning army to the city gate. Generals such as He Kegang, Zhang Cunren and others greeted Li Xin one after another. No matter what, Li Xin was also the savior of these people. If Li Xin had not come to kill that day, these people would have probably been killed by Jiannu. Now that they have survived the disaster, these people are even more grateful to Li Xin.

"Mr. Li, I've seen you again." Zu Dashou saw everyone's expressions in his heart, feeling extremely uncomfortable. The little guilt that he had originally felt for Li Xin disappeared without a trace, and there was a smile on his face and he greeted him.

"You are polite to Zu Jun." Li Xin looked at Zu Dashou who was slowly coming, with a smile on his face, just like what he saw at the beginning, but the smile at this time was so strange, and the strangeness made Li Xin feel extremely uncomfortable. Is this the attitude the enemy should have?

"Mr. Li, I would like to thank Mr. Li for saving his life last time. Zu has prepared some wine and asked Mr. Li to enjoy the glory!" Zu Dashou laughed and pointed at He Kegang and others and said, "My generals, Mr. Li is our life-savior. I will not return drunk tonight!"

"What the Grand Marshal said is very much." He Kegang was extremely happy when he saw Li Xin really come to the appointment, and his face was filled with smiles.

"Drinking at this moment, I will never know what kind of happiness will look like when I destroy Jiannu in the future?" Li Xin also nodded with a smile.

"Father, Master Li, the banquet is ready. Please move to the hall." At this time, Zu Zerun rode on a war horse.

"It's so good." Zu Dashou was about to go, but was suddenly stopped by Zu Zerun.

"Father, Jiannu is close to you. If we drink freely, we must be wary of Jiannu!" Zu Zerun glanced at everyone in the crowd, and finally his eyes fell on He Kegang.

"Yes, yes, Jiannu is treacherous, you must be careful." He Kegang also reacted and said, "It's better to go to inspect the city defense. Just go to the military gate to drink with Mr. Li. Anyway, I am familiar with Mr. Li, so I don't think Mr. Li will be accustomed to me."

"Since it's official business, Li Xin naturally won't object. Just go there by the general." Li Xin nodded. He really didn't want to leave He Kegang here.

"That's good." Zu Dashou originally disagreed, but when he thought of He Kegang having a good relationship with Li Xin, if He Kegang stayed here, he really didn't know what would happen, so he simply followed He Kegang's words and asked He Kegang to guard against Jiannu without mentioning it.

"Please." Under Zu Dashou's guidance, Li Xin went to Zu Dashou's general's mansion.

It was not the first time Li Xin came to the General's Mansion, but it was not like today. At this moment, Zu Zerun had to admit that the entire hall was decorated with magnificence. The rescued Dalinghe City began to be the luxury of the past again, and all kinds of luxurious things began to decorate the General's Mansion in Dalinghe City.

"Mr. Li, please sit down. Haha, there is also this general, please sit down." Zu Dashou glanced at Gao Meng who had a sideways. Seeing Gao Meng was extremely majestic and fierce in his face, he was shocked and pointed to a seat on the other side and said.

"I am the guard of my young master and I cannot take a seat." Gao Meng refused without thinking: "I'm better protecting the young master!" As he said that, he stood behind Li Xin.

"That's fine. Haha, he is really a loyal and righteous man." Zu Dashou laughed dryly, waiting to object, but when he thought, Li Xin would definitely die after being poisoned. What can this guard do in the future? How much combat power can the guard who lost his weapons have?

"Today we gather together and drink here is all due to Mr. Li. Haha, come, I'll drink this cup all over." Zu Dashou was on the main seat, and Li Xin was only a few steps away from his position, but Zu Zerun did not sit, but held a wine pot on one side, obviously serving as a pouring wine for people. It seems that he respected Li Xin, but Li Xin knew that poisoning himself would probably be appropriate and there would be no risk.

"I think I can't drink this glass of wine myself." Li Xin couldn't drink it tonight. He stood up and said, "We can defeat Jiannu here, all the power of the emperor and the soldiers. Haha, I think this glass of wine should be the best wishes for the Emperor's good health. I think it's good, generals, are you?" Li Xin smiled and swept everyone in the hall, ignoring Zu Dashou's embarrassing face.

"Yes, yes, that's what it should be. Mr. Li is really a loyal emperor, and we are very ashamed." Zhang Cunren came with gratitude and said loudly.

"Please." Li Xin smiled, but covered his face with his hands and drank the wine glass in one go.

"Okay." Zu Dashou saw Li Xin drink the wine in the glass and said loudly, and drank the wine in the glass. The entire hall suddenly became lively.

"Zerun, give it to Mr. Li." Zu Dashou laughed and said to Zu Zerun beside him.

"See your order." Zu Zerun said with his head down, with a hint of pride on his face.

"Thank you, General Zu." Li Xin nodded to Zu Zerun, and his eyes accidentally swept across the wine pot. Sure enough, seeing Zu Zerun move the wine pot gently, a mysterious smile suddenly came to the corner of his mouth.

"Young Master Li, I'm going to drink this time." Zu Dashou said with a smile.

"Yes, this glass of wine, haha, this glass of wine should be toasted to the soldiers who died in battle on the battlefield. If it weren't for them, how could I have the chance to drink here? Generals, I think that we cannot drink this glass of wine, and we should let the dead brothers drink it." Li Xin stood up and prepared to pour the wine in the glass.

"Let's go." Zu Dashou's face suddenly felt a little anxious, but Zu Zerun, behind him, stopped him loudly.

"What, Major General, could it be that Mr. Li said this wrongly?" A hint of sarcasm appeared on the corner of Li Xin's mouth.
