Although I was blindfolded, I was not afraid. As the carriage trembled, the speed seemed to slow down. Before leaving, the Prime Minister's deep eyes and solemn instructions seemed to be floating in front of his ears.

"At present, our huge neighbor in the south has been in a great crisis. It is a crisis for the people of Tanghe, but a great opportunity for us Kaman. You must seize the opportunity and do everything possible to reach a deal with the other party. What I said before was our bottom line. You must try your best to achieve your goal above this bottom line." The prime minister's short and fat figure and flat face are always filled with arousing people's thrilling hope.

"But Prime Minister, are the conditions we give them too generous, but we don't have much benefit?" He couldn't help asking because of his Prime Minister's confidant.

"We should look longer. Now with the thick shield of Dilock, which is ahead of us, I'm afraid we will be hard to do much before we solve this problem. The reason why we put forward such generous conditions this time is that we have no other reason to find ways to delay the forces in the northern part of the Tanghe people, so that they have no time to take care of the Dilock people. If necessary, we can even support them to make the momentum bigger. As long as we take Dilock ", there is a cunning light flashing in our eyes, but our voice pauses.

"But sir, I think that if these people alone want to achieve great things, will we have too much hope? We were not the same in the past few years. "The Prime Minister seemed to remember something. Of course, he didn't know that the Prime Minister remembered his colleagues who were on the mission to Northwest County on another mission, but he still felt that he was not so at ease.

"No, don't underestimate the people now. Their organizational rigor and scope of power development are not comparable to those stupid farmers back then. And as far as I know, the time they prepared and the things hidden behind them will surprise you. What's more, we are not the ones who want to take advantage of the troubled waters. The Pooles seem to be very interested." The round face smiled and looked a little funny, but he didn't dare to be disrespectful to his mentor in his mind. It was only when he heard this sentence that he felt more stable.

The carriage slowed down faster and finally stopped, pulling his thoughts back. It seemed that he had arrived at the destination. A quick voice sounded in his ears, "Sir, I offended you, please get out of the car, you're here."

The negotiations were in a long deadlock. Looking at the man in brown clothes in front of him, he really couldn't figure out what the other party thought. He had already turned out all the cards. With such generous conditions, in his opinion, no matter how strong the other party had, he should accept his proposal. However, this man in brown clothes was always nitpicking, as picky as a tricky and mean little woman. He really didn't understand how the other party had such a leader.

He stood up and said goodbye with some regret. Since the agreement could not be reached on the bottom line, he had nothing to say, but it was difficult to explain to the Prime Minister when he went back.

Looking at the disappearing figure of the other person, the man in brown showed a hidden smile on the corner of his mouth. He calmly picked up the "Records of the Grand Historian" on the table and tasted it carefully. Reading it at night with candles is a great enjoyment in life, and he should also taste it well.

The man beside him who had not made any noise during the negotiations finally couldn't help but bowed deeply, and asked in an extremely respectful tone: "Master, my subordinates really don't understand. I'd like to ask, why don't you agree to the other party's conditions? The conditions they put forward are exactly what we need most now!"

Slowly put down the book, the man in brown raised his head, his eyes pounding with his bright eyes under the light of light of the candle, "Well, why do you say I don't agree to them?"

He scratched his head. Although the man standing next to him looked at the man in brown clothes in front of him as a god, the conditions proposed by the man just now should be considered extremely beneficial to his side no matter how he looked at it. He really couldn't understand why the old master, who had always been smart, refused to be the condition of the party. He shook his head in confusion and said that he could not guess the other party's thoughts, and returned to the face of the man in front of him, hoping that he could relieve the confusion in his heart for himself.

"The Kamans have a great appetite. They are eager to get our support. No, it should be said to be helping them to act in the Derlock or other parts of the empire. This may be a good thing at first and can help us attract a lot of attention, but in the end they will become our enemies and a very dangerous enemy, so we must consider it carefully. Of course, what you are saying is right. The conditions they put forward are indeed very attractive and have a great help to us at the moment, but we cannot only care about the immediate interests, but should look at it longer-term." The man in brown was full of confidence.

After pausing, he continued: "Of course, if their conditions are better, we cannot consider it. All conditions will change anytime and anywhere. I believe they will come to contact us and will bring more favorable conditions. And the only one we can choose from is not the only one. I believe that as long as this starts, there will inevitably be other partners coming to the door."

After hearing what the man in brown clothes said, the man standing next to him suddenly became clear in his chest. His vision was so narrow that he was limited to the present, but the eldest young master had already thought about the development issues in the future and even in a few years, and he couldn't help but feel convinced.

He bowed silently and quietly retreated. In the huge room, there was only a man in brown clothes left. The room seemed particularly quiet. The candlelight on the desk was blew by the wind that came in from the cracks in the room. However, the man in brown gently put down the book that had been holding in his hand and stared at the swaying candlelight. A faint melancholy slowly appeared on his face, lingering, "The wolf in front of him, the situation is really out of control. It seems that he has to ask his master for instructions."

Lu Wenfu has been a little annoyed recently. Looking at the leaves shaking in the cold wind outside the window, he felt even more anxious. It was not just Li Wufeng's problem. If this problem was the only one, he might not be so upset. After all, Li Wufeng is very capable, but he is still in the imperial capital. As long as he is not allowed to return to his own sphere of influence, he will never cause much storm.

What's more, according to the information he has, many heavyweight ministers in the court have launched the "Inverted Li Movement". Although Li Wufeng took the initiative to retreat and advance at the court meeting two days ago to express his willingness to recuperate for a long time and stay in the imperial capital, Lu Wenfu believes that this cannot shake the suspicious Emperor. Because once the seeds of doubt are planted, it will take root and sprout, and eventually grow into a towering tree. As the Minister of the Interior, he knows this psychology more than anyone else. The news that He Zhiqiu brought to him a few days ago was like giving him a reassurance, which made him feel much more relaxed.

But he seemed to be intentionally against his rare good mood. The problem he sent someone to investigate secretly finally gained some results, but this gain made him feel even more anxious. He had read the thin few pages of materials in his hand. Even when he closed his eyes, he could recall every detail in these materials. The harsh facts even made him unable to sleep at night. He had tried to grit his teeth and risked his majesty to report to His Majesty the Emperor several times, but he finally gave up this plan.

In addition to the reason why the Spring Festival is about to usher in, the main factor is that although the special investigation team sent by him has obtained some important clues, due to the hasty incident, there are not many valuable things that were mastered at first, and most of them are well-known on the table. These people are intimate whereabouts, and the geography and personnel range are too wide. They have not obtained much accurate and reliable evidence in just two or three months. Not only can they achieve the expected results based on the existing things in their hands, they may not be able to achieve the expected results, and they may also be alarmed, making these guys more alert.

After rubbing his cheeks with some boredom, Lu Wenfu walked in his study. The so-called Taiping Holy Sect can attract so many foolish people to participate and donate money and food for them. This shows how irritating it is. It is a pity that many local governments are insensitive and ignore it, and some even support it. Is this because the other party really hides deeply that people don’t find a handle, or is there someone with ulterior motives deliberately conceal it?

If it were the latter situation, it would be even more terrifying. Who would be the people involved in the middle? These people will never be low-level, and it is not easy to hide from the omnipresent internal affairs departments at all levels of the empire. There are only a few people who can be identified. Thinking of this, Lu Wenfu, who has experienced countless storms over the past decades, couldn't help but shiver.

While receiving the emergency letter from Wufeng to report safety, the First Independent Division of the Northwest was officially formed. Seeing more than 20,000 cavalry riding horses through the competition in Qingyang City, the military and political leaders of the Northwest County standing on the high viewing platform did not seem to have much attention on it. Most of the sides of the viewing platform were famous gentry in the Northwest County. They were all smiling happily. The government's invitation made them feel proud, and the cavalry soldiers made them feel more secure in the property they owned.

As we whispered, various news was also circulating with each other. The news that Li Wufeng officially served as the governor of the Northern Luzon region of the Empire made the gentry and celebrities present celebrated each other, and the industrial and commercial people among them even smelled the scent of the business trend behind the news. The huge market in Northern Luzon seemed to be about to open to everyone, and the huge resources it had were enough to make merchants laugh and wake up when they fell asleep. Coffee and raw paint light could create many millionaires. In an instant, merchants miss Li Wufeng who was far away in the imperial capital. Perhaps only he here made merchants feel particularly at ease.

However, the core figures sitting in the middle of the viewing platform were having a headache about the secret letters sent back by Wufeng.

"It seems that sir, can you not come back in a short time?" Ling Tianfang's face turned gloomy and blue.

Xiao Tang, who was in the middle, was also very sad and sighed, "It seems that there must be trouble. Maybe we predicted it too optimistically before, but from the letter, it seems that the adults are not worried. However, the situation in the letter in the empire is becoming increasingly complicated and the variables have increased greatly. Will the worry that there will be major changes this year refer to the problem of the Taiping Sect? Or the physical problem of His Majesty the Emperor?"
