Although Du Wei had no desire to negotiate, the tide had turned, and negotiations were now imperative.
He stepped forward and said, "I am willing to go to the Jin Country's military camp for negotiations."
The Emperor was overjoyed, "Du Aiqing, you are truly a pillar of the state."
"In that case, Du Aiqing, proceed quickly."
Du Wei sighed, "I need two Forbidden Army soldiers and a secretary to accompany me."
The Emperor quickly assigned people to Du Wei.
Du Wei led his men out of the city.
The soldiers on the city walls watched as Minister Du walked step by step into the enemy camp.
Du Wei entered Wanyan Zhang's main tent and found that the Taishang Emperor was also present.
Du Wei knelt silently to pay his respects, then stood up.
Wanyan Zhang's attitude towards Du Wei was still polite, but the terms he proposed were far from courteous.
