Another difficult negotiation ended, and it was already dark. Yang Fuguang left the Forbidden City and went to the Diaoyutai Hotel built in the inner city of Yanjing. The negotiations with Li Jing were going on in a hurry. Although it was slow, it made progress. With his efforts every day, Qin Fan would make some concessions. It seemed not big, but it was a real concession. Although this should be more of a mutual exchange of interests and compromise, there was indeed progress.

This made Yang Fuguang, who had already had no hope for negotiations, ignited a little more hope. As long as Li Jing could dispel the plan to support the new emperor, everything would be worth it. These days he was contacting Yang Fugong from Chang'an. With the help of the road built by the Qin vassal, the accelerated horse from Yanjing to Chang'an could be reached in four days. The flying pigeon route secretly established by the Ministry of War Department can be reached in only two days. After the negotiations are over every day, Yang Fuguang would immediately write a letter to send it back to Chang'an, discuss with his brother, and decide how to advance and retreat in the subsequent negotiations.

As soon as I entered the courtyard of Tianzi Building 1 in the hotel, I saw Yang Shouliang, the adopted son in charge of communication, standing there waiting for him.

During the negotiations the day before yesterday, Li Jing insisted that the court transfer Hedong Town and Xuanwu Town to Qin Fan, and handed over Li Keyong and Zhu Quanzhong to Qin Fan for disposal. In fact, Li Jing made a rare concession for the first time, saying that if the court agreed to his conditions, he would be willing to reduce the compensation of 5 million guan per town to 4 million guan per town, with a total of 14 million guan less.

Yang Fuguang tried hard and even proposed that the transfer of Ying and Qiuzhou in western Henan to the Qin vassal states as a condition of exchange, but Li Jing refused to agree. Just for this condition, the negotiations between the two sides could be in a stalemate again. This made Yang Fuguang very worried, but he was helpless. He knew that they had to make concessions again. Otherwise, Li Jing would not take the initiative to make concessions.

"Have the lieutenant's letter arrived?" Yang Fuguang asked.

Yang Shouliang hurried forward and took out a secret letter with La, "I just sent it to Feige to deliver the letter." After saying that, he looked at Yang Fuguang's face. Seeing that his face was very bad, he knew that today's negotiation might be very unfavorable, so he took the initiative to ask: "Does Qin Fan still refuse to give in?"

Yang Fuguang waved his hand and sighed, "Qin Fan's attitude is very tough. We must make concessions. We are willing to withdraw from the four prefectures of western Henan to Li Jing in terms of our conditions."

"It's better to give up Xuanwu!" Yang Shouliang said tentatively, "Xuanwu Town originally had four prefectures of Bian, Song and Haoying. Songzhou had been controlled by Li Jing long ago. Now Ge Congzhou and Zhang Guimu of the two prefectures of Haoying have surrendered Li Jing again. In fact, Xuanwu has been controlled by Li Jing three-quarters of it. It's better to just forget Bianzhou to Li Jing. Bianzhou is assigned to Li Jing, and there is Zhengzhou to the east of Luoyang. There is Wulao Pass, which can be a barrier for Luoyang. However, Hedong cannot lead to Li Jing. Hezhong Town is extremely important and is a barrier between Luoyang and Guanzhong. If Taiyuan is lost, Li Jing will really cross the Yellow River west and go straight to Guanlong."

"Li Jing won't agree easily. He insisted on this matter again." Yang Fuguang sighed. Now this negotiation is really full of slandering, but there is nothing he can do. Who told Li Jing to take the initiative everywhere?

Yang Shouliang turned his eyes and whispered, "Maybe, we can hand over Li Keyong to protect Hedong Town."

Yang Fuguang was surprised and was about to scold his adopted son a few words, but when he spoke, he couldn't help but stop. This might be a plan. Li Keyong was a pioneer general against Qin, but on the other hand, Li Keyong was almost completely controlled by Li Jing and was not Li Jing's opponent at all. Moreover, Li Keyong was a bit domineering. Although he was also under his own disciple and his godson, he established a small circle with Wang Chongrong and Erdang Xiang Ertuyuhun Town, with a hidden danger of being uncontrollable. If Li Keyong was thrown to Li Jing, he would save Hedong Town, and then he would take over the Hedong Army in Hedong Town, this seemed to be a good idea.

But there are both advantages and disadvantages. Will this arouse the opposition of Li Keyong in the minor league? Moreover, how to hand over Li Keyong out is also a big problem. Li Keyong is not an ordinary person. Li Ya'er is a barbarian king. If something goes wrong, let Li Keyong know. If something is not good, then Li Keyong may rebel again. This guy has had two criminal records.

Yang Fuguang rubbed his forehead with some headaches, and things were really dilemma.

He simply stopped thinking about it and opened the letter and read it.

Yang Fugong's letter was very clear, that was, to try his best to reach negotiations with Li Jing. As for the troubles encountered in the current negotiations, Yang Fugong's reply was somewhat similar to Yang Shouliang's. However, the plan he proposed was that the Chang'an court would not interfere with Li Jing's attack on Wei Bo and Chengde, and at the same time, it was to dispose of the four prefectures in western Henan occupied by the Qin army to the Qin vassal states, and the court also returned the Qin vassal people who had looted the towns.

After these three items, the Chang'an court was willing to allocate Bianzhou to the Qin vassal, and at the same time he was willing to hand over Zhu Wen's head to the Qin vassal. In addition, the Chang'an court also established a state supervisor, and the candidate for the state supervisor was nominated by Li Jing, and he could consider supervising the state in Yanjing.

Of course, under such a great concession from the Chang'an court, they also had several conditions. First, the 70 million yuan compensation proposed by Li Jing was cancelled. Second, Hedong Town and Henan Prefecture were still under the Chang'an court. Third, the Qin vassal state must open the canal to the court. Fourth, Li Jing's eldest daughter is the queen. Fifth, the Qin vassal state does not need to implement a three-point tax system, but must pay 10 million yuan of tribute to the Chang'an court every year.

Yang Fugong's new conditions were considered after careful consideration. The Qin army was disarmament, and Li Jing did not ask him to hand over one-third of the tax every year. He was even willing to hand over Zhu Quanzhong's head to Li Jing and transfer five states including Bianzhou and Caizhou to Li Jing. This is a great sincerity.

In the choice between Li Keyong and Zhu Wen, Yang Fugong chose to betray Zhu Wen. This is because Li Keyong is very good at fighting, at least he has not been beaten to death after fighting with Li Jing for so many years. Secondly, Li Keyong is now very powerful. Not only is Hedong Town a strong town, but he is also a lot of allies. They are all wealthy towns like Wang Chongrong, protecting Dada, and conquering difficulties, and the Hu people like Tiande and Zhenwu, and it is not easy to offend. In addition, Hedong Town is too important and can't be messed up easily. Otherwise, if Hedong chaos, Luoyang and Chang'an may be unstable.

Although Zhu Wen was once under Li Jing, he was just a soldier before, but later he was just a general under Huang Chao. He was only by selling his owners for glory that he was able to occupy several towns in western Henan all at once. For the remnants of a thief, Yang Fugong looked down on the former landlord's family for feeding pigherds. He had promised such preferential conditions when he first recruited surrender because the situation was different at the time. Now that Huang Chao was destroyed, Zhu Wen would have no value. How could he tolerate him occupying such a large territory?

It just happened to take this opportunity to kill Zhu Wen and get his territory back.

It is ridiculous that a damn pigherder also wants to be called a lonely man and become the King of Liang.

Of course, the most important thing is that although Zhu Quanzhong is now powerful, in Yang Fugong's eyes, he has never fought any famous big battles, which makes people think that he is just like this. He is a fat pig and can be killed with one stone.

Yang Fuguang looked at his brother's letter carefully, which was indeed a great concession.

But to put it in detail, the court has not made much concessions.

The four prefectures in western Henan were originally captured and controlled by Li Jing, but they were not taken back after confronting each other for a long time. The only thing they really paid was Bianzhou, which was still outside Wulao Pass. Anyway, the east bank of the Bian River was controlled by Li Jing, and the remaining one Bianzhou was difficult to defend. As for the two towns in Hebei, although these two towns were lost, it had a great impact on the court. But at this time, it is better to die than to die. The two towns in Hebei were difficult to control. Although they accepted the title of the Emperor Chang'an, they were actually a master who listened to the tune and did not listen to the announcement. Since this is the case, it would be better to let them fight. The two tigers fought against each other and would be damaged. They watched the fire from the other side and were just in time to rest and recuperate.

Yang Fugong didn't think about destroying the Qin vassal now, but he thought that it would be best to maintain the status quo. Just like the Tang Dynasty surrendered to Anshi, he comforted Li Jing. They were still the center of the court, and Li Jing was just a vassal king in the north. After more than ten or twenty years, after he died, what if he was behind him?

As for the matter of governing the country, as long as Li Jing does not support the new emperor, supporting him with a governing power will be considered as a pacification for him. Anyway, they care about the orthodox court, and the rest does not matter. Whether it is the supervision of the country or the crown prince, it is just to let Li Jing have a formal name to control the Qin vassal more conveniently, which is just right. This matter cannot be stopped. Li Jing will not agree in Luoyang. It is better to be generous and put it in Yanjing and let Li Jing do it.

The Supreme Emperor of Chengdu and the Supervisor of Yanjing, let him go. In short, the emperor is only one of Chang'an.

Yang Fuguang handed the letter to Yang Shouliang and Yang Shouyi, "What do you think?"

"It's feasible!" Yang Shouyi said.

"No," Yang Shouliang also said, "However, Zhu Wen is now the largest vassal commander in the imperial court, except Li Jing. He has many soldiers under him. In the previous battle with Huang Chao, the remnants of Henan and Huang Chao, Zhu Wen has always preserved his strength and suffered not much loss. He is now strong and strong. How can he give his head to Li Jing?"

"I think this matter is not difficult." Yang Shouyi smiled on the side, "The adoptive father can tell Li Keyong that Li Jing wants his head, but his adoptive father has to protect him, so now he needs Zhu A San's head to satisfy Li Jing, so he can find a way to cut off Zhu A San's head and offer him. I believe that he will be willing to use Zhu Wen's head to replace his head and appear on Li Jing's case."
