The prince's personal bodyguard

Chapter 149 Negotiation

Mu Yunxiao turned to look at Bai Xinyin, and seeing that she looked a little tired, he couldn't help but feel pity for her. He looked forward for a moment and said, "There is a forest not far ahead. Let's go there and take a rest. Besides, it's noon now, and it's time to have lunch."

"That's great!" Everyone nodded in response. They did feel a little exhausted at the moment, especially since their hearts had been tense all the time. Now that they were able to relax, they felt even more sleepy and weak.

After arriving at the woods, everyone started to get busy and prepare for cooking. Since some of the soldiers who came with Mu Yunxiao were stationed outside the city, all of them gathered together at this moment, and the entire team had reached hundreds of people.

Ah Luo followed behind the large group, but her mind was filled with a lot of thoughts and emotions. When she resolutely followed Ah Yin out of the palace with the Kongtong Mirror yesterday, she did not tell the Queen Mother the truth. She only left a letter. I guess the Queen Mother Ayi Na must have learned that she had fled with the Kongtong Mirror, and she must be extremely angry with her!

However, Ah Luo thought again: The Kongtong Mirror was originally a relic left to her by her mother, so it was only natural for her to take it away. As for Queen Mother Ayi Na, with her abilities and means, she would be able to survive the crisis.

The shadow of Wei Wuji flashed in her mind, the elegant man who had once taken care of her. He was just a passer-by in her life journey.

Luo was married. Although she was once a princess, Loulan had disappeared and was only in name only. Who would care about a princess without a country?

But he was a famous general of the Wei State. A Luo knew very well that there was a gap between him and herself, so she never dared to have any improper thoughts about him, let alone hope to have that kind of deep affection with him.

As for the newly budding feelings, she could only think of him silently in the dead of night, recalling every bit of their time together. Ah Luo understood that due to the relationship between Zhao and Wei, these beautiful memories could only be hidden in her heart and could not become reality. She could only pray silently in her heart: I wish Brother Wei all the best, and may his future be filled with light and happiness.

This separation may be forever, and we will never meet again. But no matter what, this experience will become the most precious memory in Luo's life, and will be treasured deep in her heart forever.

Regardless of the fact that Bai Xinyin and the others were resting in the woods, at this moment in the Wei Palace, the Emperor of Wei was furious.

After the morning court session, the Emperor of Wei came to the Queen Mother's palace to inquire about the situation of the Kongtong Mirror. Ayi Na was very excited to see the Emperor of Wei coming in person, and she quickly sent someone to summon A Luo. However, unexpectedly, when the maid returned, she reported that A Luo had disappeared without a trace after leaving a letter.

This news was like a bolt from the blue for Aina. She felt as if the whole world had collapsed and her body felt like it had fallen into an ice cellar, instantly becoming icy cold.

Ever since the Imperial Master had helped the Emperor of Wei to remove the mysterious spell, he no longer looked at Ayi Na with the same passion and admiration as before. At this moment, when he looked at Ayi Na, his eyes were like those of a cold and merciless wolf.

"Please go back to your room to recuperate, Queen Mother. Do not go out without permission!" This sentence rang in Ayi Na's ears like a bolt from the blue. She stared at the cold and ruthless man in front of her with wide eyes, her heart filled with despair and helplessness. However, the man was not moved at all. After saying this, he stepped out of the door and left without looking back, leaving Ayi Na alone in the room with tears streaming down her face.

As time went by, Ayi Na's mood gradually calmed down, but she still couldn't accept this fact. She didn't understand why the man who had cared for her so much suddenly became so cold and ruthless, and even didn't want to look at her again.

Could it be that her secret technique was broken? Suddenly thinking of this, it was indeed the case. Ayi Na was shocked, and then she couldn't help feeling sad. She originally thought that she could rely on that man to get through this crisis, but she didn't expect that after the secret technique was unlocked, this man didn't have any affection for her at all. He was really cold and ruthless. In the end, she was abandoned by him.

At this moment, the only thing she could do was pray silently, hoping that Luo would be safe and come back to save her one day.

The imperial guards of Wei State had surrounded the entire post house. They were holding weapons and had serious expressions, and it was obvious that they were here with ill intentions. When the people in the post house saw the imperial guards, they realized that the Zhao State group had already left.

At the same time, on the other side, the State Master of Wei learned the news that the posthouse was surrounded, but he behaved unusually calmly and came to the door of the posthouse as agreed.

It just so happened that the Xiongnu King Dugu Feng had just arrived at the inn and checked in. Before that, when he heard that Bai Xinyin was also in the inn, he couldn't help but feel a surge of anticipation, but also a little guilty. However, when he learned that Bai Xinyin had left, he felt a sense of relief.

After Dugu Feng entered the inn, he washed up and took a short rest. At this time, the imperial teacher sent an envoy to inform him that he had been invited to meet. When Dugu Feng arrived, the two sides had already communicated through letters and jointly planned a grand business blueprint.

As soon as he entered the room, the national teacher went straight to the point without any further ado and began to discuss relevant matters of cooperation between the two parties.

"It is a great honor for me to meet the king today. This time, I am here only to represent the emperor and the king to have a preliminary discussion on this matter. I hope that both sides can reach a consensus and work together to create a better future. However, some of the details need to be further discussed."

"Well, very good. Since both sides are sincere, we can discuss cooperation. As for treasures, this king is not short of them. However, if the Kunlun magic weapon really appears in the world, I am afraid that the 60% and 40% split is not appropriate. After all, both parties should work together to seek common interests. To be honest, my king, my ancestors once left behind treasures and maps of the Kunlun magic weapon. If we can't finally achieve a 50% split of the magic weapon, then it will be difficult for both parties to continue cooperation!"

After saying that, Dongfang Gu and General Huyan began to pack their bags and prepare to leave.

"Hey, your Majesty, please be patient and don't be anxious. Everything can be discussed. It won't be too late to make a decision after I return to the palace and report to the emperor." Faced with this situation, the national teacher seemed calm and composed. Not only was he not impatient, but he also comforted with a smile on his face.

If you want to achieve your goal, you must first make excessive demands. This matter was discussed in advance by the State Master and the Emperor of Wei. You can only fight for more benefits by raising the conditions first. If you want 60%, you must first propose 80%, and then slowly reduce it to your goal. If you start with a 50-50 split, I'm afraid the other party will ask for more, and in the end it will be difficult to get even 30%.

Negotiation is also a game.

"Everything can be discussed!" The national teacher said with an unfathomable smile.
