After Zheng Shuxuan went back to tell about Lanling, Ang Lee had a bitter face at the time.

"Why did you agree to this?"

Ang Lee was quite helpless. As a result, their Li family would stand opposite the royal family. Zheng Shuxuan's decision made him anxious and didn't know what to do.

He is the head of the Li family, but he can't ruin the foundation of the Li family in Chang'an just because of a decision. Besides, Li De is now the Grand Governor, in charge of the Sixteen Prefectures of Youji.

Isn’t this force his son to do something traitorous?

"Hey, do you know what kind of crisis your decision will put the Li family in?"

Ang Lee complained helplessly.

Zheng Shuxuan knew that she shouldn't say this, but she couldn't bear it when she saw Lanling having the courage to give up her identity as a princess. She was always her daughter-in-law and his grandson.

"Let's think about what can we do." Zheng Shuxuan said calmly.

"What else can I do? I will write a letter to Youzhou immediately."

Ang Lee had no idea. The matter was related to Princess Lanling. He wanted to estimate the foundation of the Li family and naturally had to discuss the matter with Li De. He could not really listen to Zheng Shuxuan's wife's kindness.

"I have to do this."

It took a few days to arrive in Youzhou. When Li De saw the urgent letter from Chang'an City, he thought it was to expand the Hu Ben's personal guards, but he realized it was Princess Lanling when he saw it.

Li De smiled bitterly when he saw the content of the letter. He was really like the princess he knew, and such a bold thing could be done.

It seems that there is nothing wrong with thinking from the other party's standpoint.

Li De scratched his head a little. It was not a journey of taking Lanling to Youzhou. It was easy to come. After coming, the Li family would anger the royal family.

Perhaps he will become the first person to elope with the princess, and it feels quite helpless to think about it.

Li De thought about it and decided to write a letter to go back.

"Governor, the imperial court has sent a letter. The Turks asked us to deal with it ourselves." Yang Yu'er rushed into the room and said.

Seeing Li De frowning and thinking about the matter, he immediately stopped the sound of fear of disturbing him.

"Prince Yu, is there any news in Fancheng?"

Li De did not continue to be stunned, put some thoughts and asked.

"By time, we infer that our people should come back in the past two days."

As he was talking, he saw the dusty guard coming in.

"The governor has contacted the Turkic tribes, and they are willing to redeem the prisoners with supplies. The specific price will take ten days to discuss and each tribe will send envoys to Youzhou City."

"Thank you for your hard work in Weili this time." Li De said with concern.

"It's all the things that subordinates do, so how hard it is. If the Turks can be exchanged for a large amount of supplies, it will be worth it." Wei Li said.

"Prince Yu settles the accounts. The daily food, drink, housing, transportation, and material losses caused by their willful attacks on Youzhou City, mental losses to the people and casualties to the soldiers must be counted for me."

Yang Yuer felt more and more that this compensation was like a war reparation. I really didn’t know if the Turkic mission members would accept it.

"Are we going to find civil servants to contact the Turkic mission?" Yang Yuer asked.

"Princess Yu is now a military city. Where do you ask me to find civil servants? Is it good to choose a few quiet-looking people for negotiation?" Li De asked.

Princess Yu was silent, and things settled.

The purpose of the negotiation is to safeguard the interests of Youzhou City, safeguard the interests of pioneers, and safeguard the interests of all people in the city.

A few days later, the envoys from various tribes of the Turks arrived one after another, and the negotiations were quite distinctive. In order to successfully separate a street as a market this time.

Li De did not come forward but looked at the Turkic envoys who came from thousands of miles away in the pavilion. No matter how he looked, he felt that these people looked more like merchants.

They all liked the people who redeemed it, either they were strong and powerful, or they were related to their tribe, and they heard those people talking local dialect in a linguistic manner.

It took half a day to make a bid for redemption.

"Thirty stakes are a person, no, you are robbing."

After some negotiations, many envoys from the Turkic tribes stopped working and did not redeem a single person in the morning.

The governor who was staying in the attic and watching did not care and thought it was watching the fun. Princess Yu next to him said anxiously: "Governor, do you see if the price is too high, and they are unwilling to take the money."

"The negotiation has just begun. As the saying goes, "I have to pay back the money by starting the price on the ground and landing, and I always have to give people a chance to bargain."

Yang Yuer didn't know what Li De was talking about, she knew that no matter how much she suffered, she would always be the enemy.

"Princess Yu, have the merchants arranged by you come?" Li De asked.

"It's all arranged and you'll meet it soon." Yang Yu'er replied that before entertaining the Turkic envoys, in addition to negotiating with the Turks, many merchants were invited.

The purpose is self-evident to go to the market economy and make the Turks feel that competition is so that they can pay more easily if they are under pressure. Of course, Li De's idea was originally to do business.

There is no element of acting at all, but it is only in people's opinion that Yang Yuer thought it was a deliberate arrangement, and the pioneers would not suffer any loss anyway.

While taking the Turks to have lunch, merchants from Jiangling and other prefectures came with caravans. They didn't pay much attention to the Turkic envoys.

When I saw the vanguard commander, I asked: "We are here to do business. Can you please ask the general to take us to see the goods?"

Those who can engage in this business are rich and powerful, either with background or with a way of doing things, or are not good people in any case.

"Okay, please come with me." Wei Li felt very friendly when he saw the merchant coming over, and he knew that their plans had achieved results since this.

Because after listening to the translation among the Turkic envoys, the envoys showed anger on their faces and discussed on the side, but Wei Li didn't care what they said.

The merchants' eyes were all over when they saw the Turks, but after asking about some market conditions, they all had a bitter face.

Wei Li then took these people to the restaurant for dinner.

Let them discuss the rest.

The guard directly went to the situation of Lieutenant General where Li De was located.

"Governor, the merchant is not very satisfied with the price we offer." Wei Li said.

"At most, 25 stakes, you need to pay cattle, sheep and horses as a payment. Tell them that if they pay all of them, you can discount the price to 20 stakes." Li Dedao.

Wei Li calculated that if he had redeemed all 60,000 people, wouldn't he have to exchange for 60,000 war horses? No matter how he calculated that they would have made a profit.

"Are the governor too optimistic? Will they agree?" Wei Li asked in confusion.

"Don't forget that what they lack the most is people. The strength between tribes depends on the population. Let's see, there will be people who can't hold it back first."
