These issues were all considered by the temple, but it was the emperor who gave the order to arrange the conduct of the relations between the two countries, so the temple was mainly about receiving and persuading the emissaries of the State of Richie to meet with them.

The Jing Zhao Estate was a lot more trivial, but it was no less troublesome than the Hong Dian Temple.

Although the matter of Lin Chuan concerned the entire country, the people from Shang Jing Zhao's residence didn't care about this.

The popinjays who had suffered minor injuries in the Fragrant Mist Pavilion weren't short on money. What they needed was a breath of relief. No one would be happy if they were disturbed by a proper slap.

The same merry caravans, the owners of the ships sunk by the ships of Richie, the merchants were not short of money, but they would consider more about money.

The repair of the ship that was hit, the loss of the cargo on board, the medical expenses of the wounded sailor, the cost of his own mental damage and so on.

Most importantly, what if the merchants raised the price on the spot because of the damage to the goods?

Not only would the president's influence on Liang Jing's prices be unbearable to the common people, but it would also reduce the tax revenue within Liang Jing City this year.

If there was no tax, then it couldn't be used by the people. This way, the Beijing prefecture's year-end performance evaluation would be very low. As the capital of the Ming Xuan Empire, the emperor would definitely be furious …

"Actually, I feel that the Jing Zhao Estate is more suitable for Brother Yu than the Hong Dian Temple."

Lu JinNian finished chewing on the fried fish and continued, "Hong Dian Temple has been in contact with foreign envoys. The slightest mishap is a major relationship between countries. Although the starting point is very high, Brother Yu's identity is very important."

"Hmm, I'm afraid that once they enter the Hong Dian Temple, there will be people blabbering about it. It would be better for them to linger around in the Jing Zhao Estate for a while to convince those people."

Pei Yu smiled bitterly and said, "I know, but I don't think there's anything wrong with the Capital Mansion."

He was the son of the Prime Minister, and his aunt was the Imperial Consort of the harem. No matter what he did, he would always be taught that he had a backer.

As a result, he would rather stay in the Han Lin Courtyard for longer than to lend his father a single bit of strength, as the matter of the Jing Zhao manor was complicated, and he needed to communicate with Liang Jing Quan. This was more than suitable for him, it was just that now …

"Richie Country will definitely not admit their mistakes on their own, and apologize to those silkpants and merchant brigades for their compensation. The Emperor will also not take out his own funds to pacify and compensate those merchants."

Lu JinNian said in amusement, "Brother Yu, you're worried about that? "It's actually quite easy to handle."

Pei Yu said slowly, "Oh? I am listening. "

"That's a boat with the sign of the nation of Richie. It must be built by their country of Richie, right? If you bring an emissary of the Ruixi Country with you, the sailors will definitely be from the Ruixi Nation, right? "

"That's right."

"That's it." Lu Jinniang narrowed his eyes. If there really was a tail behind him, he would definitely be shaking it very happily, "Chisel their boat in the middle of the night."

"Just say that the emissaries of the RuiXi Country were eager to visit our country, but who would've thought that something would happen on the ship? That was the reason why the incident at Lin Chuan happened."

"To save the face of the Reich emissaries, and to put the blame on them, though it may end up on that poor captain."

"But as for the reason why everyone knows it so well, let's not talk about it. We can still continue to talk about it. In our opinion, compensation or something of the sort is also good for us as well."

Pei Yu muttered to himself, "I'm just afraid that the Rui Xi Country will not accept it."

"Brother Yu, you can rest assured. Even if the Ruixi Country wants to put on a front for us, we won't be the only ones to witness such a big event. Merchants from the Ruixi Country, merchants from the Nanyun Country, merchants from the Huns."

"Even the spies here are all visible to the public, they can't possibly act as if nothing happened, not to mention that they came to test out the relationship between us and the Huns. Before the Huns even arrived, they had already separated from us, and they still can't achieve their goal."

"This matter must be solved. If we give them a way out, why shouldn't they take advantage of us?"

Lu JinNian sipped the tea on the table and continued, "First of all, neither we nor our Emperor hope that we will lose in terms of momentum before the Reichs officially show their intentions."

"If we compromise first, it will not be good for the rest of the negotiations, and it will not be good for our country. Secondly, the messenger of the Huns, the day of reckoning should come."

"Everyone knows about the relationship between the three forces. It must have been even harder for the country to surrender in front of the Huns. This matter should be resolved as soon as possible. The last and most important point …"

"How can the rich and powerful popinjays and rich merchants of Liang Jing be trifled with?" "In our name, these people don't say anything on the surface, and don't know how to hold a grudge behind the scenes. It would be better if we just push it all onto Rache's head, and at the same time, take the small specialties of the country when they come to pay their respects. With a common enemy, it will also be convenient for the Residence of Beijing Prosperity to act in the future."

Lu Jinniang meaningfully dragged out his words, "Speaking of which, once the business people's losses have been accounted for, they will have to send it to the Capital Mansion for further verification. Brother Yu, you can expand the losses at your discretion and ask for more compensation. Filling up the national treasury is also good, isn't it?"

"This is an open and honorable way to extort money," Pei Yu laughed. "I've heard that you've been at home all year round, and that you've never stepped out of the house or out of the house. Why do you have such a huge grudge with the country?"

Lu Jinsheng rolled his eyes, "If there's no enmity, then I don't like to see people acting presumptuously in my country for no reason at all."

The nature of the soldier, the land that lives under his feet, does not allow others to meddle in his or her wildness.

"Of course, the specifics will all depend on Brother Yu and the Prefecture Overseer."

"I'll go back and discuss it with Lord Cui." Pei Yu nodded his head. Seeing the pieces of fish that were stuck in Lu JinNian's mouth, he smiled and picked up the towel on the table to wipe her hands, intending to wipe them off.

At this moment, Xiao Su suddenly called out, "Jin."

Lu Jinniang tilted his head to look at Xiao Su, only to see him wiping the corner of her mouth with a handkerchief.

He curled his lips innocently, "I was too focused on talking that I didn't notice. The two of you are also eating. They all say that the dishes of Pleasing Pavilion are pretty good."

Xiao Su looked at her deeply and said, "Alright."

When he saw her speak, he was confident and dazzling, making the bad so that he would not feel guilty, but his heart was firm and resolute.

I don't know why. As if a part of his heart had been frozen and melted, he did not know how to understand this feeling. When Pei Yu was about to come into contact with her, he felt inexplicably displeased and thus did what Pei Yu wanted to do first.

It was really strange. However, the great demon king had always been the first to make him not feel bad. After all, the most important thing was to feel good about himself first.

Seeing that Xiao Su had beaten him to it, he had no choice but to put his hand down and pick up the chopsticks on the table. Seeing that Lu JinNian seemed to enjoy eating that plate of fried fish, he gave her a piece.

"Thank you Miss Lu for your advice. I'll thank you when the matter is settled."

"You're still calling me Miss Lu?" Lu JinNian said helplessly, "Brother Yu, let's go for a stroll together..." "Ahem, just call me A-Jin."
