After hearing her words, Xiao Cui'er couldn't help but touch the dagger inside her sleeve.
Although his martial arts skills are not very high, he has to stand in front of Ye at the critical moment.
"Well then, I'll do as you say!" Yuye didn't hesitate.
Even if the enemy sent an assassin to defeat Lingyue with his own strength, I am afraid that no one except a master-level expert would be able to hurt him.
What's more, Xiao Xianbei lives in the main camp. If the other party really sends a master, Xiao Xianbei will definitely feel it.
In other words, no one in the world could successfully assassinate him.
However, Ye believes that it is better to be cautious.
I must never set a bad example for my subordinates.
If other people were also so careless, maybe Zhenye would be assassinated.
It would be better to do a real-life exercise and see how each person would handle the situation.
If there are any problems, they can be discovered in advance and corrected.
Still not allowing the other party to enter the village.
Tents were set up outside and guarded by elite soldiers.
The arrangement is very simple and effective.
The emperor's seat was in the middle of the tent, and the envoys from various countries were more than ten meters away.
No matter which direction the assassin attacks from, there is enough time to react.
Ye was very satisfied with the arrangement.
Qian stepped forward and sat down, then ordered the envoys from the enemy country to be brought in.
When the envoys from various countries came in, they first bowed respectfully to the Emperor.
After being in contact for so long, they all knew his personality and temper.
If they could just lower their attitude, I pray there would still be a chance.
If they were to be stubborn and put on a high attitude, Ye would never give them face.
"Greetings to His Royal Highness the Sixth Prince..."
"We are old acquaintances, so let's forget the formalities. Tell us what your purpose is in coming to see the prince."
He made a gesture for them to sit down and asked them to sit down.
The envoy breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that Ye was not angry.
The barbarian envoy immediately said: "We are asking for peace from Your Highness on behalf of all countries.
I hope Your Highness can forgive us for the mistakes we made."
"Oh!" Upon hearing this, Yuye burst out laughing: "It was you who started the war, and it was you who asked for peace, and you even want the prince to forgive you.
Could it be that all the affairs in the world are controlled by you?"
"The responsibility lies with us, and I don't want to argue. Your Highness can put forward any conditions, and we, the Barbarians, will try our best to agree to them.
As long as His Highness agrees to trade, we will do anything!"
Ye nodded, confirming that they really wanted to make peace.
It seems that their king is still very smart. Seeing that his strength has been damaged, he immediately lowered his posture and was willing to endure humiliation.
No wonder such a person can become a strong rival of the Dayuan Dynasty.
People who are flexible and adaptable are indeed more threatening.
But Ye didn't say it out loud.
He said calmly, "Is this what your king and the khans of various countries said?"
"Yes, that's right. Our Jin Kingdom is also willing to compensate Your Highness."
"As long as Your Highness resumes trade and agrees to a ceasefire, we are willing to offer cattle, sheep, and beautiful women." The Khitan envoy also quickly expressed his submission.
Ye instantly felt the murderous aura beside him.
As soon as the other party mentioned giving a beautiful woman as a gift, both Princess Ruyue and Linyue became jealous.
Xu Ye sneered and said, "There are so many beautiful women in my country, who wants your women?
From a distance, you can smell the strong smell of mutton, which makes you feel sick.
The envoys from various countries dared not speak out but could only nod in agreement.
In fact, if Ye doesn't want them to have beautiful women, they will be happier.
After all, the beauty presented to the prince to ask for peace cannot be an ordinary tribal woman.
You must be born into a noble family and your status cannot be too low.
No matter who sends their daughter here, she will definitely not be happy.
"Then what does Your Highness want?"
"Come together and give me 10,000 cattle. Only these animals can catch the eye of the prince.
If I ask you for 10,000 war horses, I'm sure you won't give them to me." "Ye Ye said calmly.
After hearing the request, the envoys from various countries almost vomited blood.
Ten thousand cows is not a small number, and the cost of using them for settlement is too high.
If they agreed, the Hui people would be skinned alive by the Khan.
"Your Highness, your request is too high. If it were ten thousand sheep, I could make the decision.
Even if we exhaust all the resources of the country, we still cannot produce 10,000 cattle."
"Oh, it seems like there's no way to reach an agreement. Since you're not sincere, let's just call it a day."
Ye stood up and was about to end the negotiations.
The barbarian envoy quickly said, "How about three thousand cattle? This is already the upper limit of the bid."
Last year we bought a large amount of goods from Your Highness, and almost all of the silver and surplus livestock have been sold.
For example, spring is the breeding time.
If we give all these animals to Your Highness, how will we herders survive?"
"If you want to negotiate sincerely, don't cry poor to the prince! Your country is so large and has so many tribes. Ten thousand cattle is just a drop in the bucket.
Don't think that the prince knows nothing.
It was you who broke the agreement and started the war. How can we do this without paying a sufficient price? "
"In another five minutes, this is my highest permission."
After a few people discussed it, they decided to try again.
Ye sat back down, crossed his legs and began to think.
The envoys finally saw hope and looked at Ye with hope on their faces.
I hope I can get your approval so that I can go back and report back.
Wang Ye said: "Five thousand cattle, not a single one can be missing, but the prince is not an unreasonable person.
But this cow is not for nothing!"
"Your Highness, do you mean to buy it with money?" the barbarian envoy asked tentatively.
"Even so! We seized a large amount of weapons and armor in these two battles.
If the prince is right, you will definitely fight tooth and nail to make up for the losses during the next truce.
Purchasing iron to make weapons and armor is troublesome and labor-intensive.
It would be better to buy ready-made ones directly from the prince.
By replenishing our troops, we can immediately restore our strength."
Ye said.
After hearing what he said, they all thought there was something wrong with their ears.
They looked at each other in disbelief.
They actually agreed to sell them finished armor and weapons. This is like a fairy tale.
Aren’t you afraid that after you recover your strength, you will send troops to retaliate again?
You know, armor and weapons are very important strategic materials.
No country dares to sell it abroad.
Even for the Dayuan Dynasty, it was very difficult to create so many armors and weapons.
If we sell it to the enemy, wouldn’t that make us a powerful enemy?
"Your Highness, are you kidding us? Are you really willing to sell us all those armors and weapons?"
"Do you think Prince Yu has that much free time? We can't use it directly even if we keep it. At most, we can just recast it.
This is time-consuming and labor-intensive, so I might as well sell it to you at a discount.
The market price of a set of armor and weapons, plus inner clothes, is about one tael of silver.
There are a total of 210,000 sets, so I’ll give you a discount.
I'll sell it to you for 1.4 million taels of silver.
It doesn’t matter if you don’t have enough money, you can use cattle, sheep or horses to pay off the debt.
As long as the livestock is valuable, it’s fine.”
Ye said seriously.
