In the Ezhou Prime Minister's Mansion, Chen Dong had a sneer on his lips. The Minister of War Cao Liangshi, Minister of Rites Wu Zilong, Minister of Rites Wen Xunzhi, and dozens of other people sat in a row, staring at the person standing in the Political Affairs Hall with bright eyes. Dozens of gazes made the envoys from Bianliang and the censor Wanqi Cheng a little trembled. Thinking of the past few envoys from Bianliang, Ezhou either closed the city gates and refused to accept them, or let the envoys come in, asking about the situation of the emperor of Bianliang, but never killed the envoys.

"The emperor's slave is still more important than the princes. I am the emperor's envoy, and Chen Shaoyang and others should know the rightness and qualities."

Wanqi Sheng said in his heart that he calmed down and coughed, "Chen Xiang, the so-called military force that defeated others without fighting is a good person. Our dynasty and the Daliao have already resolved their past grudges. The emperor thought that the most important thing at the moment is not to care about revenge or kill, but to treat friends and neighbors with kindness and stop fighting with both countries. Ezhou disobeyed the will of the court, held the army and respected themselves, and established his own name. This is for disloyalty, to be an enemy of the Daliao, and to hit stones with eggs, which is actually an unwise act."

Over the past few days, the Liao army fought south and north. In addition to still detaining Zhao Ke in the camp outside the city of Bianliang, the officials of the Song Dynasty who handled the government in the city were still safe, and many prefectures and counties still obeyed the orders of Bianliang. A large number of officials abandoned their posts and fled to Xiangyang or Ezhou, and they were vacant. Zhao Zhifu and Qin Hui introduced private generals to fill it. Wanqisheng was one of Qin Hui's new confidants. Now Xiangyang and Bianliang each have the emperor, and they are discussing with the Liao Dynasty to stop the troops and stop the war. To be fair, the Liao people are more at ease with Zhao Ke, but the monarchs and ministers of Bianliang are actually prisoners and have no strength in their hands. Therefore,

He suffered a loss in the matter of peace talks. Seeing Xiangyang and the Liao Dynasty flirting with each other, if the peace talks in Xiangyang were successful, the people of Bianliang would be like resistant ministers. Zhao Zhifu, Qin Hui and others were as anxious as ants on a hot pan. This time, the Liao army and the Song army confronted each other in Shuzhou. In order to delay time, they sent envoys to persuade them to surrender again. Other ministers dared not to go to Ezhou. Qin Hui had no choice but to order Wanqi to take on this job and secretly promised that when he returned to Bianliang safely, he would be more important. If he could persuade Chen Dong and others to accept the peace talks, he would make great contributions and would lead Wanqi to the Political Affairs Hall to participate in politics in the future.

When Chen Dong heard this, he was furious and slapped the table with a "slap", stood up, and pointed his finger at Wanqie, saying, "Is it really the emperor who asked you to pass the order?" Other officials from Ezhou also glared at Wanqie.

Wanqie's heart was thrilled and he tried to calm down, "Why did Lord Chen say this? Do you need to verify the imperial seal?"

Chen Dong sneered and said, "It's better if you don't mention it. The emperor's imperial seal has long been in the hands of the Liao thieves. If you come with this seal, you must have been ordered by the Liao thieves. Bianliang fell and the emperor was captured. We are actually the same as the evil son of the lonely minister. Let you come into the city. I just want to ask about the emperor's recent situation. Who knew that as a minister of the Song Dynasty, you have already sold your conscience to the power and the Liao thieves. These bastards really defile our ears." He paused, turned around and asked his left and right, "According to the court's laws, what should this person's words and deeds be punished?"

Wen Xunzhi, the Minister of Justice, was prepared and stood up and said, "I think that this person is planning to betray this dynasty and surrender to a foreign country. His words and deeds are enough to be considered a crime of treason. The Ministry of Justice will work with Dali Temple and the Censorate to try this person out of public trial."
