The Censorate and Dali Temple did not take any light action. Hu Bufan committed suicide for fear of crime, and Ma Hong took office immediately and immediately assisted the Censorate and Dali Temple in investigating officials of the Ministry of Revenue.

Chu Huan thought that this storm would definitely sweep the government and the country, with a huge momentum, but unexpectedly, although the Censorate and Dali Temple made heavy blows, the scope of the attack was much smaller than expected, and the main scope was concentrated in the Ministry of Revenue. I heard that officials from the Censorate and Dali Temple were sent to the local area for investigation, but when they left, they were silent and the movement was very small. This storm was not as earth-shaking as Chu Huan expected. Although dozens of Ministry of Revenue officials, including Dou Yi, were involved and entered the Dali Temple Prison, some of the names Chu Huan saw in the roster seemed to be safe and uninvolved.

Chu Huan didn't know why this was the result.

According to common sense, if the princelings grasped the account book, they would definitely not show mercy. If they could defeat an extra member of the Han King Party, they would definitely spare no effort. However, the facts show that the princelings seemed to show mercy.

Chu Huan couldn't figure out the reason for this for a while.

Lang Wuxu obviously left a backup plan in that account book. This time, he was thoroughly investigated the officials and was indeed not involved. Although the officials of Dali Temple looked for Lang Wuxu several times, this guy was safe and sound in the end.

Such a person really has a backup plan every step he takes. Chu Huan also knows that such a person is not as simple as it seems, and he must be careful at all times.

The Red Silver Book incident is still in progress, but the people in Beijing are not paying more attention to this matter, but to the Xiliang mission.

The Xiliang Army is still in the northwest, and there are still several states in the northwest Xiguan Road occupying the iron cavalry of the Xiliang people. This is undoubtedly a shame and a threat to the Qin people.

Although Yu Buqu has regained his troops and built a defense line in the northwest, and the people of Xiliang have not yet advanced, no one can guarantee that the people of Xiliang will not continue to invade, and he cannot guarantee that the Northwest Army under Yu Buqu can still block the people of Xiliang.

When the heroes were fighting for hegemony, the people of Xiliang took the opportunity to advance to the Central Plains repeatedly, burning, killing, looting, and after the founding of the country, the Iron Cavalry of the Qin Dynasty guarded Yanmen Pass, and the general of the protector Feng Hanxiao was in charge of the northwest. The people of Xiliang were defeated several times invaded the border. Since then, the northwest has been settled, but the Qin people are very hated to the people of Xiliang in their bones. In the eyes of the Qin people, the people of Xiliang are beasts that eat raw meat and drink blood. They are cruel by nature and burning, killing, lewd and plundering.

The northwest region was deeply harmed by the people of Xiliang. It was even circulated for a time that the people of Xiliang feed on human flesh and were extremely cruel. Therefore, the Qin people both hated and hated the people of Xiliang, but were also afraid of the people of Xiliang.

Feng Hanxiao and his thirteenth Taibao were assassinated by the people of Xiliang. This matter had been known to the Qin Empire. After Feng Hanxiao died, the people of Xiliang immediately rushed to invade the Qin territory, break the Yanmen, and attacked the northwest. The Northwest Army was defeated again and again, and the Western Liang cavalry was invincible. For a moment, the Qin people were panicked and panicked.

But no one expected that the Western Liang Iron Cavalry suddenly stopped when the troops were in full swing. The news came afterwards that the people of Xiliang actually took the initiative to ask for peace.

This is really unexpected.

When the Western Liang delegation came to Beijing, the people in the capital were naturally very concerned, and the court had already made a fuss. This peace talk was proposed by the people of Xiliang. In people's eyes, that was a sign of showing weakness.

The Xiliang mission did not let the people in the capital wait too long, and even arrived at the capital earlier than people expected. Moreover, the news that the official envoy of the Xiliang mission this time was the great prince of the Xiliang Kingdom, which also shows the importance of the Xiliang Kingdom to this peace talks.

The Qin Dynasty was established for 18 years, but it was very rare for real foreigners to come to Beijing.

Except for the Goryeo Kingdom in the northeast that had already paid tribute to the Qin Dynasty, they would send envoys to worship every year, so only the barbarian tribes in the north of the Mo area occasionally sent people to worship.

The Yi barbarians have no country, and the tribes fight to kill each other. The Yi barbarian leaders who come to worship this year may be unable to come next year because of death or due to war.

There were dozens of countries of all sizes in the Western Regions, and they had had contacts with the Central Plains. However, after the Western Liang Kingdom was strong, it became a roadblock in the middle. The Western Regions became vassal states of the Western Liang Kingdom. Since the founding of the State, the Western Liang Kingdom never showed goodwill to the Central Plains dynasty, and the Western Regions countries should not be able to make good friends with the Central Plains Kingdom.

The arrival of the Xiliang mission was the second real country in addition to the Goryeo Kingdom, which naturally attracted the attention of people in the capital. When people learned that the officials of the Honglu Temple and the Ministry of Rites had left the city to welcome him, there were already crowds of people on the streets of Luo'an Jingcheng, and they ran to the street to watch the arrival of the Xiliang mission.

After the Western Liang mission entered the northwest, in order to ensure the safety of this mission, General Yu Buqu sent 500 elite troops to escort along the way. Along the way, the local governments also received all their hearts from wherever they passed.

Yu Buqu understood in his heart that the Northwest Army seemed to be not weaker than the West Liang people in terms of military strength, but their combat effectiveness was very different. Since the West Liang people broke through Yanmen and won consecutive battles, the morale of the Northwest Army had suffered a huge blow. It was extremely difficult to restore the fighting spirit of the Northwest Army in a short period of time. In today's form, the Northwest Army can only defend at most and cannot counterattack.

At this time, the people of Xiliang proposed peace talks, so naturally Yu was unyielding. As long as the two sides agreed peace talks and spared enough time, Yu Buqu was confident that he could train the Northwest Army into a steel lion again.

The Western Liang mission came this time, but there were only two hundred people, but they were all real warriors of the Western Liang Kingdom.

The Great Gong opened the way, and the Northwest Army, which was escorted by the Royal Guards, was escorted by 500 people. The Guards were surrounded by bright armor and swords and guns. The Xiliang missions were all riding agile Xiliang horses and wearing leather felt hats. In April, the weather was getting warmer. These Xiliang people still had leather armor on their upper bodies, with wolf-skin around their waists and leather boots around their feet. There were scimitars unique to the Xiliang people. The horses and warriors were very heroic.

The streets were crowded with people, and the Western Liang knights did not look around, and they all looked expressionless, and seemed well-trained.

The team was like a long snake, winding from the streets of the capital, heading straight to the newly completed Tongren Hall.

Tongren Pavilion has been on high alert and has transferred elite guards from the palace to escort the guards. The envoy of the Xiliang mission was the great prince of the Xiliang Kingdom. He had an extraordinary status and naturally he had to try his best to ensure his safety on the ground in the capital.

Although the Western Liang Kingdom took the initiative to seek peace, this peace talk was unsuccessful for the Qin Dynasty. Now, internal troubles in the Qin Dynasty are full of chaos and people everywhere, especially the wars in the Jianghuai Road are in full swing, and the Qingtian King of Hebei Road is still in gloom. It is already difficult for the national treasury to deal with civil strife. Once a peace talks with the Western Liang Kingdom can be reached, the pressure on external troubles will be reduced for the time being, and you can concentrate on dealing with internal troubles.

The court naturally understood the importance of reaching peace talks with the people of Xiliang. The prince of Xiliang is noble and naturally had to do his best to protect his personal safety. Once the prince of Xiliang is in the capital, the peace talks between the two countries will inevitably be broken instantly and the negotiations cannot continue.

The Western Liang mission was rested in Tongren Hall, and the inside and outside were protected closely.

If it weren't for the fierce domestic war, the Qin Dynasty would have delayed the time and let the Western Liang delegation wait for a while to suppress their spirits.

However, for the current situation, for the Qin Dynasty, if peace agreement is reached one day earlier, the northwest will naturally be peaceful one day earlier.

In the Ministry of Rites, before the Western Liang mission arrived in Beijing, they began to prepare for peace talks according to the intention of the Secretariat of the Secretariat.

It is natural to say that peace talks are easy, but just as they are about to talk, it is naturally a very complicated matter. There are too many things involved. A series of issues such as soldiers, money, grain, and land personnel must be negotiated. Moreover, before the peace talks, the first thing to do is to make yourself the most appropriate positioning.

Although the Ministry of Rites will be responsible for specific negotiation affairs at that time, the one who makes suggestions behind the scenes is of course the Secretariat of the Secretariat of the Secretariat of the Secretariat of the Secretariat of the Secretariat of the Secretariat of the Secretariat of the Secretariat of the Secretariat of the Secretariat of the Secretariat has been discussing and arguing for a while.

Logically speaking, the Xiliang Army won successively, and proposed peace talks when it was in an advantageous situation. In this case, the Qin Dynasty should have a low attitude and was at a disadvantage in peace talks. However, the important officials in the court also carefully analyzed that the people of Xiliang won but did not advance, and suddenly stopped the army to propose peace talks when the troops were in full swing. This is a big violation of common sense. These important officials are all cautious people. Some people have speculated that there must be major problems in the Xiliang country.

Some people say that in order to smooth peace talks, the Xiliang army would withdraw as soon as possible, and to make a low attitude and reach a peace talk as soon as possible, but some people still insisted on peace talks with the people of Xiliang in a high manner, the Great Qin Empire, the Supreme Kingdom of the Celestial Kingdom, and the people of Xiliang took the initiative to seek peace. How could they argue with the peace? The people with the two opinions were basically the same. The disciples of the Secretariat have been arguing for a long time.

However, the basic principles of peace talks have been determined long ago. First of all, the 100,000 Xiliang cavalry stationed in Xiguan Road in the northwest must retreat outside the pass. This is the first key point of peace talks and the prerequisite for peace talks. If the people of Xiliang cannot do this, the peace talks will not need to continue.

Although the Northwest Army retreated step by step, Yu Buqu has temporarily stabilized the situation in the northwest, and the court has quickly transported a large number of materials from inside and outside the pass. Xu Congyang, the Grand Secretary in front of the Left Censorate Hall of the Censorate, is now stationed on Xishan Road. Xishan Road is the only way to transport materials. Xu Congyang is in charge of Xishan Road and personally ensures the smooth flow of the conveying line. Although the Qin Empire is in trouble, it is still a big land and abundant resources. If it is consumed for a long time, the people of Xiliang may not be able to hold on.

Although Xiliang occupied Xiguan Road and controlled Yanmen Pass, there was a shortage of food now, and transporting materials from Xiliang's own country had to pass through the vast Jingulan Desert. The conditions for material transportation were very difficult. The two sides were in a stalemate, and each had its own advantages and disadvantages. Since the people of Xiliang took the initiative to propose peace talks, it was naturally impossible for the Qin Dynasty to give in at all on the land issue.

Today's saints established the country with martial arts and claimed to be the king of prosperity. If they were forcibly occupied by the people of Xiliang under his rule, they would undoubtedly have slapped His Majesty the Emperor in the face. History should not be deceived. Of course, His Majesty the Emperor did not want to mention later generations that when the founding of the Qin Dynasty, they would have lost face because the people of Xiliang occupied Xiguan.

Therefore, the court's negotiating position was very clear. The Western Liang Iron Cavalry retreated from the pass, and everything else was easy to discuss—

ps: The desert will be on the shelves tomorrow. I have been writing books for three and a half years, seven million words. What is the level of the desert? Is it worth subscribing to everyone? Everyone has an account in their hearts. I just hope that the desert can still lie in everyone's arms and write carefully for everyone. The time to test the desert is coming soon, and the time to test the brothers is coming soon. Let's work together to continue to write about the glory of the country after it is put on the shelves!
