Feng Yu Jiu Tian vol15 ch3-5

***************************

Feng Ming was stunned.

A peace treaty?

Should such an important thing be mentioned so nonchalantly? I heard a peace treaty between kingdoms should be very strict. After all, the contents would determine many significant aspects of foreign relations.

Does he want to decrease the impact of the assault today by using a peace treaty to overshadow what he has done?

"Signing a treaty here... is not appropriate, is it?"

"It's not out of place at all. Don't tell me that, just now, Duke Ming was only speaking casually and had no intention to fulfil what he previously said."

"But my status, at the moment, is not..."

"Does Xi Lei's, Duke Ming, surprisingly hold no power to represent his country in signing a treaty? Don't tell me that, as the young lord of the Xiao Family, you also don't have the right to make any decisions either?"

This.... With both overbearing power of Xi Lei and Xiao Family on my side it would be unlikely for him to give me unequal treaty, right?

He Di, revealing his obstinate and unruly side, without allowing Feng Ming a chance to respond, continued, "Since Duke Ming has refused to come aboard my ship, then I will just send one of my men over to yours. Is that fine? Humph, the good intentions of Dan Lin being suspected truly makes me feel dissatisfied. If it weren't for a future of peace and harmony for my people, this Prince would not stand for this humiliation."

He then gave an order to his subordinate. "Kong Liu, take a boat and go alone to their side. Show them our Dan Lin's sincerity in handling matter."

Kong Liu obeyed and left for his assignment.

The small boat he used, reached the Xiao ship, where he was personally received by Luo Deng. In his hands was a box.

Seeing Kong Liu bravely enter enemy territory alone, the Xiao Family men felt that this subordinate of Dan Lin's prince was quite exceptional.

If they knew that Kong Liu, from an early age, had lived as a pirate, then they would not have been so surprised.

A pirate is an individual that faces mysterious and unpredictable occurrences at often when at sea. Dealing with death is a common thing in their lives. It can be said that pirates are among those who are least afraid of death.

And as a person whom He Di personally selected from among the pirates, Kong Liu was meticulously trained to never fear death.

When Kong Liu arrived in front of Feng Ming, despite the numerous experts surrounding with hands at the hilts of their swords, he remained calm. Opening the small box, he took out a pen, an ink slab, and two papers that had the contents of the peace treaty written.

The men on board did not completely understand the scene that was occurring in front of them. When it comes to killing and shipping goods, they could be considered experts. However, politics was beyond their realm of comprehension. In Rong Hu's case, he had been following Rong Tian for years, resulting in a basic knowledge of politics. He voluntarily stepped forward and accepted the peace treaty. With utmost respect, he presented the items to Feng Ming and proceeded to step back. From behind, Rong Hu evaluated the contents.

Feng Ming scanned the document for any clauses that would deem the treaty as unfair.

To his surprise, everything on it could be considered ideal. The treaty called for mutual cooperation between the two sides. As Dan Lin's representative, He Di had already stamped his seal on the papers.
