Wang Yun resigned last year and returned to Shangdang, so the court could no longer send envoys to Jin State that please him. However, for the safety of Luoyang, the faction had to send him to the sect, even if this time it was obviously going to eat someone's lower corner.

After urgent discussion, the court appointed Guanglu doctor and Situ Huang Wan as the envoy to seek peace, and ordered him to be fully responsible for negotiating matters with the State of Jin, so as to try to quell the chaos around Luoyang as soon as possible, save Huangfu Song and the forbidden imperial guards, and work together to drive away the Hu people who were in chaos in Chang'an.

Huang Wan's courtesy name was Ziyan, and was from Anlu, Jiangxia. When he was young, he was famous for his sharp words and good at debate. Later, he was promoted to the position of General of the Five-Secret General. Because he was framed by the powerful and wealthy in the court on the grounds of gathering friends and forming a clique, he was imprisoned for nearly twenty years. When the Yellow Turbans broke out, Emperor Ling issued an order to amnesty the party members of the world, and he was fortunate to be released. In order to win over the scholars, General He Jin recommended him to enter the court again as an official, become a counselor, and then moved to Shizhong.

Because Huang Wan himself is indeed talented, and with a reputation outside, he was later appointed as a general by the court as a master craftsman, Shaofu, and Situ. After Wang Yun resigned and left, various factions in the court fought for the vacant three-monarch position, and finally got the advantage of Huang Wan, who did not enter various small circles, and appointed him as the new Situ.

Huang Wan became famous for her tongue when she was young, and now she is a world-renowned elder. She is as good as her predecessor, Situ Wang Yun in terms of reputation. It was a painstaking effort for the imperial court to send Huang Wan to Jin State, even Huang Wan himself could not refuse. Who made the past dealings with Jin State Wang Yun, so that the people of Jin State recognized this official position?

Huang Wan, who was carrying heavy responsibilities, came to Mengjin, the Yellow River Ferry with all his thoughts. When he was about to board the ship to head north, he suddenly received an urgent report from Luoyang. When Huang Wan opened it, she suddenly became even more depressed and stood on the bank of the Yellow River and sighed to the sky.

The original message said that Zhang Fei's troops, who had attacked the city and captured the village on the battlefield in Jizhou, were trapped in Taocheng and surrounded by a 50,000 army from outside the city. Now they have become birds in cages, waiting for the court to come to rescue.

Even Zhang Fei was surrounded. Now the court had only bargaining chips left to bargain with Jin State, leaving only Huang Wan, the old face, torment. Do you think he can't be depressed?

Fortunately, on the way from Hanoi County to Jiguan, Huang Wan was not intercepted by the troubled soldiers. Along the way, Zhao Gang secretly opened the road for Huang Wan in front, and screamed and scared away many passing merchants and pedestrians on the road, making the team heading north for peace because the road was empty and the speed of traveling was particularly light.

The Jin State seemed to be waiting for the court to send people to negotiate. The one who sent Huang Wan was the Prime Minister Wang Yun.

The two old and new Situ gathered together. At first, they did not slap their beards and stare at each other, but instead swear to each other in a friendly manner. They talked about the harvest of summer grain and what they saw and heard along the way, and seemed to be joyful and peaceful.

Wang Yun was not in a hurry, that was really not in a hurry. Anyway, the situation on all battlefields has reversed, and Jin has entered the stage of a strategic counterattack. Even the 50,000 Hu people who broke into Guanzhong were pretending, so what else should he worry about?

Huang Wan was not in a hurry, that was pretending not to be in a hurry. If he could not quickly reach an agreement on a ceasefire with Jin State and properly handle the Chang'an crisis, he would move the capital at the least, and he would fall. In the future, the century-old brand of the Han Dynasty would probably have to close down.

When he was so anxious to urinate, Huang Wan finally couldn't hold it in. He asked Wang Yun straight to the point: "Senior Brother, the court used to treat you with a loss, so you resigned and left. It was a bargain. You won't have any opinions on me, right?"

Wang Yun heard what Huang Wan was going to say next, so he replied with a smile: "How could that be! Brother Zi Yan's talent and character are well-known. Even if I am still in the court, you will have the opportunity to take over the positions of Zhang Wen or Lu Zhi!"

Huang Wan was buckled by Wang Yun's big hat, and I didn't know where to start, so I just made up my mind and cut the mess with a quick knife. He said: "This time I came to Jin State, the person I least want to meet is Senior Brother Zi. Because I negotiated with you, I knew that I would not even be able to get a little cheaper. So, we should not go around. What are the conditions for the ceasefire between Jin State and the court?"

Wang Yun was not angry, and said with a smile: "Since Brother Zi Yan is so happy, I won't make things difficult for you. In fact, the conditions for the ceasefire between Jin and the court are not static, and they can be adjusted accordingly according to the benefits provided by the court. For example, if the Crouching Tiger Army that broke into Hedong was just withdrawn from Jin, the court would need to announce that all the charges previously made against Taifu Zhao were entirely framed by villains, and now it is clarified."

When Wang Yun said this, there was obviously something to say below, but he kept silent, waiting for Huang Wan's reaction.

Huang Wan was also aware of the situation, so she had to take the conversation and said, "If the court wants Jin State to release General Huangfu Song and more than 30,000 Imperial Guards, what are the conditions offered by Jin State?"

Wang Yun saw Huang Wan so well-informed, so he nodded and replied: "To the world, the Sima family was a traitor. The fifth prince Liu Tian was captured by them, and the previous emperor was also secretly murdered by them!"

Huang Wan was shocked and said hesitantly: "This, this condition seems to be a bit difficult. After all, the Sima family has always respected the Han royal family and has never done anything to overestimate the courtesy."

Wang Yun sneered a few times and asked Huang Wan: "You and I are all wise people. If the Sima family had no unfair intentions, then why did they secretly abduct the fifth prince?"

Huang Wan said in his heart: "The crow said to be pig black! Didn't Zhao Xing kidnapped the third prince too?" But he couldn't say that. He thought about it and felt that at this time, it would be impossible for the court to secretly protect the reputation of the Sima family. Not only has the finger on Yizhou now, but it has been cleared out all the broken things that were unfaithful this time. The Sima family really lost all the rice this time, and it is difficult to clear themselves.

So Huang Wan replied: "I will report this to Luoyang, and I think the court will agree to it in the end. What are the conditions if Jin State wants to release Zhang Fei and 30,000 Southern Army soldiers besieged in Taocheng, what are the conditions?"

Wang Yun seemed to have expected Huang Wan to ask this question, so he said: "If the court does not agree to the second condition, there will be no next third condition. But I am not careful to show you the minimum bottom line of the people of Jin** to you. As long as the court agrees to this condition, everything else will be easy to discuss!"

Only then did Huang Wan understand that Wang Yun had hidden the bottom line of Jin at the beginning, so he had to say, "I'd like to ask Senior Brother to say it clearly."

Wang Yun said calmly: "The court has set aside the great hat of murdering the former emperor for no reason, holding the prince hostage, holding the army to respect my son-in-law, and intending to rebel. Have you ever thought about the ending today? Now Guochang is trapped in a foreign country, and the news is unknown. Hundreds of thousands of soldiers of Jin State and nearly ten million common people jointly wrote a letter asking the court to grant Guochang the title of "Pingxi King" to wash away the stigma that the court had previously stolen. At the same time, in the future, we will always maintain the foreign country, and ensure long-term stability in the Western Regions of the Han Dynasty, and never suffer from the disasters of the Hu people!"

"What? Pingxi King!" Huang Wan stood up in surprise at that time. The third prince and the fourth prince successively won the king, which was reasonable. After all, they were also dragon sons and grandsons. Now the people of Jin State actually asked the court to enfeoff Zhao Xing, a person of a different surname, to be the King of Pingxi. Such conditions are really too terrifying.

Wang Yun seemed to have not seen Huang Wan's surprise and said leisurely: "Now the Western Regions are already out of control of the Han Dynasty. Is it so difficult to entrust a land of namelessness to Guochang?"

Before Huang Wan was still confused, Wang Yun said again: "Once Guochang was named King of Pingxi, Jin State would cheer and cheer. Not only would Huangfu Song and more than 30,000 Imperial Guards besieged, but the 40,000 Dingyuan Army that besieged them would go south without hesitation to solve the courageous Hu people for the court. Wouldn't it be even more icing on the cake?"
