Chapter 2725 Mission

Master Zhang pondered, "After all, that is the capital of the enemy country, bring Gaoyou, if he wants to go back, I can't stop it, isn't that letting the tiger return to the mountain?"

After entering the inner city, let alone Gaoyou, even his life is in the hands of the Goguryeo royal court, which is equivalent to sending Gaoyou back, unless his heart is completely biased towards them.

There is also the saying that he is in Cao Ying and the heart is in Han, but if not, Zhang Hui looks at Bai Shan, isn't this giving a bargaining chip to Goguryeo in vain?

Bai Shan sat on the chair very indifferently, and when he saw him looking over, he raised his head and smiled at him.

He said: "Let the tiger return to the mountain, then he must be the head of the tiger. How can Master Zhang know if he doesn't give it a try?"

Master Zhang is still hesitating, "Where is Your Majesty..."

Bai Shan lowered his eyes and straightened his clothes, then got up and said with a smile, "Your Majesty's original intention was to use him for peace talks in case the Eastern Expedition failed, but now that we have all captured half of Goguryeo, his original role is no longer needed. If Master Zhang is interested, I can go with you to meet Your Majesty."

This is an option in wealth insurance.

With Gaoyou, he has a higher probability of success, but also a higher probability of failure, and the benefits and risks increase at the same time.

Zhang Hui turned around twice, and finally gritted his teeth, "Okay, then ask Master Bai to come with me to meet His Majesty."

Bai Shan also simply went directly with him to ask to see the emperor.

On the way, Zhang Hui couldn't help but ask him, "How did Lord Bai... persuade Prince Gao Wu?"

Knowing more, he can also persuade the other party.

"I seem to have heard someone say that Master Bai and Prince Gao Wu are old acquaintances, and they had a good relationship when they were in the capital?"

Bai Shan said: "Master Zhang must have heard it wrong, the old acquaintance is true, I met him when the fifth prince of the high school was on his first mission to the capital in the early years, and it is not easy to talk about it. I have met him four or five times. "

I have only met four or five times in the capital, but there is no friendship.

He and Bai Shan had seen more than so many meetings every day, and they still didn't have much friendship.

Zhang Hui felt that the relationship between them needed to be repaired, so he smiled and said to Bai Shan: "Master Bai, I'm about to go on an envoy. Before going out, I invite you and Master Zhou to have a meal?"

"Master Zhang, don't be polite," Bai Shan said with a smile: "My wife and I don't like drinking, so good things must be reserved for those who understand it, but Master Zhang can invite Zhao Guogong and the others."

Forget it, he had already drank all his wine, and he couldn't invite them even if he hadn't drank it all, how many sips would the wine fall into his mouth?

The emperor really doesn't care about Gaoyou very much now. It is not because he is valuable that he is still locked up now, but it is a bargaining chip in his hand. Although it is tasteless, it cannot be directly given to the other party, right?

But if the courtier is useful, even if it is possible to send a son back to the other party for nothing, he agrees without hesitation.

For Goguryeo, it is quite important that this is a prince, but for Dajin, this is just a prince of Goguryeo.

He was of little use when the war was going well.

The emperor agreed with a wave of his hand, but how to convince Gao You to use it for himself is up to Zhang Hui.

Zhang Hui inquired a lot about Gao You from Bai Shan. Although he said that he did not have much friendship with Gao You, he must have a deep understanding of Gao You to be able to deceive such an important jade pendant from the other party.

So he just stared at him.

Bai Shan thought for a while and then said, "You Gao is narrow-minded, short-sighted, good-natured, and hard to convince by coercion. It's good to lure him, but he shouldn't be too proud to avoid bad things."

Zhang Hui: "...he doesn't have any advantages?"

Bai Shan thought about it seriously and asked, "Can you bend or stretch?"

That is the grass on the wall, which can be swayed by the wind. Such people are the most difficult to control, and the best to control. Whoever has the advantage will stand on which side.

"But he has a companion by his side. His knowledge is not bad, and he has some knowledge. If I were Master Zhang, I would not take him on this mission."

Zhang Hui's eyes flashed and he understood, "Let him be isolated and helpless?"

Bai Shan smiled and nodded.

"Okay," Zhang Hui said after tidying up his official uniforms, and said to Bai Shan, "Then I'll go meet this high prince for a while now."

Bai Shan saluted and retired and went back to the tent.

Man Bao had already exchanged his clothes, and was about to find him, when he saw him coming back, he pulled someone in.

She said: "This is the dress, you can put it on now and wear it close to your body."

Bai Shan touched it, but he couldn't figure out what kind of clothes it was made of, and the style was so strange that there was no placket or something.

He lowered his voice and asked, "This is the little father-in-law's own?"

Man Bao said: "...exchanged with someone else."

Bai Shan nodded and said to Man Bao, "You ask your little father-in-law to wait, and when Anshicheng is taken down, I will ask people to look around here to find out what is rare, the flowers, plants, trees and insects, fish and birds that we have never seen before. Beast, when the time comes, I will buy it and give it to him."

Man Bao immediately nodded and said, "Okay, okay."

Then he added: "But don't spend too much money."

Koko:  …

Bai Shan got dressed, it was cold at this time, and it was not obvious to wear such an extra piece of clothing inside.

Man Bao asked him, "When did you go?"

"The letter has been submitted, and there should be news before dark. If they agree, I will go directly to the second high school prince. If they don't agree, then I can only go to see some people quietly."

Man Bao frowned: "It's dangerous, isn't it?"

Bai Shan didn't care, "The possibility of this is very small. If I were the second prince of high school, at this time, even if I would not surrender, I would meet the envoy. It can be delayed for a day, waiting for reinforcements."

"The Zhao Kingdom's guild is in a truce?"

Bai Shan thought for a while and then said, "Probably not, but after His Majesty's words, there won't be a large-scale attack."

There's a buffer there.

Sure enough, before dark, a letter came from there, agreeing to negotiate.

Bai Shan made preparations, said goodbye to the emperor early the next morning, and led people to the opposite side.

Yuan Yi brought troops and horses to pick up the envoy. Seeing that the person who came was a young man, he couldn't help frowning. So young, is he a crown?

Bai Shan smiled and saluted Yuan Yi, and said, "General Yuan, in the Xiazhong book, I will give up Bai Shan, and I also ask General Yuan to give more advice."

Yuan Yi didn't dare to be rude when he heard about his official position. He dismounted and clenched his fists in return and said sideways, "Master Bai, please."

Bai Shan mounted his horse and took his team across the intermediate checkpoint into another city. He didn't look back, but he knew that Man Bao was watching him.

Man Bao was standing on a building, watching him slowly disappear into the street on a horse. When Zhao Guogong saw that the envoy team had entered safely, he turned around and was about to go downstairs. for a moment.

After thinking about it, he still comforted the other party, "Don't be sad, they are not brave, they should not dare to hurt our envoys, at most they will arrest Bai Shan and threaten us."
