When I met the legendary Mrs. Hong, she was very heroic and generous, and her behavior was not at all domineering. On the contrary, she was approachable and gentle.

It's just that Da Situ doesn't dare to underestimate him. He who can fight in this troubled world with absolute decisiveness is not as amiable as he appears on the surface.

Think about the soldiers standing outside the lobby. They have been tempered by blood and fire. They are definitely different after seeing blood.

Sure enough, when it comes to peace talks, they are not giving up any ground, and it is also because they have obvious advantages and lack of confidence!

After more than half a month of disputes, they finally bargained for three million taels of gold and thirty million taels of silver, a temporary truce, mutual non-aggression, and the start of free trade.

Da Situ returned to Jiankang with satisfactory results.

On the north bank of the river, Hong Wangyue looked at the departing building boat and said, "Mother, I don't think that brother-in-law looked at us too much."

"A little bit?" Hong Lianshuo frowned slightly and asked, "Do we know him?"

"How is that possible?" Hong Wangyue said, shaking his head like a rattle.

"That brother-in-law has been asking about your origins these days." Chen Zhongyuan said with his eyebrows knitted together like a caterpillar.

"How can you want to establish friendship after asking about our origins?" Hong Lianshuo said casually after hearing this, "It's already finished talking, it's too late."

"I don't know, has he never touched our bottom?" Lin Nanzheng said with some surprise, "We have found out their bottom."

"Perhaps this was their plan from the beginning to conquer the river. As long as we agree, it doesn't matter where we come from?" Cui Ming said casually after hearing this.

"The hometown of the young men caught in the north is not Yandu City, right?" Hong Lianshuo guessed casually.

"So what? There were originally 200,000 people, but only 100,000 of us survived." Chen Zhongyuan said with his caterpillar-like eyebrows twitching.

"Whatever! Anyway, we're not ready yet. I'm going to tell you about the temple. Oops, I'll go. News like pieces of paper came. I really don't know if I don't check it. I'll be shocked if I check it." Lin Nanzheng patted his chest for fear.

He looked scared and said, "It may be more difficult to deal with than the court in the Southern Dynasties."

"We have no soldiers, just a mob." Chen Zhongyuan curled his lips disdainfully.

"Their numbers are huge and cannot be underestimated. Most people can't stand these believers going crazy. If they don't follow them head-on, they disturb other people and prevent them from living a normal life. This is impossible to guard against." Hong Lianshuo looked at them with a stern face and said.

.

"I hope the brothers in Jiangnan will work hard and find out the situation as soon as possible." Ye Yunyu looked at the distant ship channel with a sinking face.

With the results of the peace talks, Da Situ returned to Jiankang City with great satisfaction.

He accepted everyone's compliments in the court, and his flattery made Da Sima blush and his ears warm.

"It's best to talk it over, but what should we do with these three million taels of gold and thirty million taels of silver?" Da Sima couldn't stand the flattery anymore and said.

The originally noisy Jinluan Palace suddenly became audibly quiet.

Who can afford this mountain of gold and silver? One by one, they pretended to be quails and remained silent.

"Don't worry about this." Da Situ said with a smile on his face, "We keep our business with the north in the open. The tea and silk are sold very well in the north."

"Even those with mud legs can still afford silk and satin."

"Everyone is so poor."

"As long as I give you money, why do you care so much?" Da Situ said with a somewhat displeased look on his face.

"How much does this cost?"

"How about you guys do something?" Da Situ said with a dark face.

Now they are silent. Who would give up their own property?

"If you don't have enough money, you can pay it back every year instead of all at once." Da Situ said loudly, puffing out his chest.

"Oh! Da Situ told me earlier! Thanks to you for taking action this time."

Another shameless compliment, which made Da Sima feel sick to his stomach, but no matter what, the matter was resolved.

Amidst the sound of retreating from the court, Da Sima came out of the Jinluan Palace. He looked at his uncle beside him who was in a daze and said, "I said, why do you feel like you have lost your soul during your trip to Jiangbei?"

"Well..." The brother-in-law looked around and pulled him aside, "My sister may not be dead."

"Not dead?" Da Sima was startled when he heard this and then said quickly, "This is a good thing! Where is he? He has been having a hard time these past few years! In a woman's family, is our mother still there?" He suddenly remembered and said,

"Wait a minute, Yandu City is well managed. We also asked people to inquire, but they are all gone. Didn't we see their names on the tombstones!" He said happily, "Thanks to Mrs. Hong, otherwise there will be no one after death."

He doesn’t even have a name.”

"Only my sister is still alive, and she is living a good life." The brother-in-law pursed his lips and looked at him and said, "If I tell you who she is, don't be scared."

"There are still things in this world that scare me, tell me! Who could scare you out of your soul?" Da Sima looked at him funny and said.

"It's Mrs. Hong from the Northern Dynasty." My brother-in-law looked at him and said without blinking.

"Who?" Da Sima looked at him blankly and said.

"Mrs. Hong who unified the north." My brother-in-law said word by word.

"Her? This is impossible, right?" Da Sima looked at him with obvious disbelief and said, "We have been away for ten years. This person's appearance has changed so much, how can he recognize her."

"My sister looks exactly like my mother. How could I admit that I was wrong?" the brother-in-law looked at him resolutely and said.

"Her surname is different from yours? You may have recognized the wrong person." Da Sima shook his head and said, "The status difference between your sister and Madam Hong is too far! How is it possible?"

"I asked around in Jiangbei, and it turns out that Madam Hong and the others survived after escaping from death in Yandu City. Madam Hong has never shied away from carrying corpses herself." The brother-in-law looked directly at him and said, "You and your father were backgrounds in carrying corpses back then.

, after my father and I were captured as young men, our family suddenly lost its source of livelihood, so my sister had to carry the body on her back to support our family in Hukou."

"This corpse..." Da Sima looked at him hesitantly.

"Carrying a corpse is a very unlucky thing, and most people are not willing to do it." The brother-in-law looked at him with a stern look and said.

"If you don't want to do it, it doesn't mean that there is no one to do it. People are forced to live no longer and can't do anything." Da Sima looked at him with dark eyes and said, "In order to survive, we robbed and killed many people.

The property on his body, even..." He closed his eyes, painful memories attacked him, and said with difficulty, "Even killed them and fed them..." He couldn't say any more.

"But the fifteen or sixteen-year-old son next to him looks exactly like you, just like how he looked when I first met you. But he is really high-spirited." The uncle looked at him excitedly and said, "Ms. Hong's appearance
