After leading the Iron Futu to within thirty miles, the Turkic Great Khan halted, merely sending a message to Chen Dingye, laughingly saying: "I have already shown sincerity, coming all this way."
"Emperor Chen, likewise, must show the magnanimity and grace fitting of Emperor Chen. Given the sincerity, and since we have come to support the Emperor, should not the Emperor come out to my central army to discuss?"
"Yet, you mustn't go into Zhenbei City."
The envoy who came to receive him forced a smile: "Our Emperor of Chen is already in Zhenbei City, prepared for a long time, waiting for the Great Khan to come. Now, at this critical moment, suddenly not going into Zhenbei City, wouldn't that be somewhat wasteful?!"
The Great Khan rode his mount, holding a whip, smiling leisurely:
"Hahaha, wasteful?"
"Indeed, the name of Chen Dingye is not unfamiliar to me. If not, my Iron Futu entering your Zhenbei City might truly fear being trapped by you."
"Hahahaha."
