1015: It's better to surrender (2)
The Seventh Prince said gloomily, "We were captured by the willow thief...... Now she's a prisoner ......."
He was badly wounded, and the arrow wound on his shoulder was all filth, and if he didn't handle it properly, he might have pus and rot.
The eighth prince chuckled in his heart, as if he did not believe in this reality.
"We've been caught?"
He is not a naïve person, and if he falls into the hands of the enemy, the fate can be imagined.
The Seventh Prince nodded heavily, "Hmm." ”
"In that case......," the eighth prince hurriedly asked, "Is there any movement over there in the imperial court?"
He and the Seventh Prince are both princes of the imperial court, representing the face and majesty of the imperial court in Northern Xinjiang, and if they are humiliated, the imperial court will lose face.
It is impossible for the imperial court to allow the enemy to humiliate them, and it will definitely send someone to negotiate with the willow thief and negotiate a condition for the exchange of the two.
The seventh prince knew what the eighth prince was thinking, so he shook his head slowly for a while, rejected the other party's expectations, and said gloomily, "The willow thief has not seen us so far, and the imperial court is controlled by the sixth child, he wishes that we will die soon, how can he send someone to redeem us?"
The Seventh Prince has always supported the Eighth Prince free of charge, and the Eighth Prince is still a strong contender for the Acting King.
The two are the confidants of the sixth prince, how could the latter give up his interests in exchange for the two?
As everyone knows, the royal court has exploded.
The sixth prince had not slept for two days, for fear that if he closed his eyes, the enemy would break through the royal city and enter the imperial court.
After not sleeping for a long time, his nerves were extremely fragile, and the ministers below were still chattering, making his brain hurt.
"Quarrel and quarrel - do you have anyone who can relieve your loneliness except for your quarrel?"
The sixth prince exploded emotionally, and his voice containing anger made the ministers quiet for a moment, not daring to squeak.
"You! You stand up and say!" the sixth prince casually pointed to a minister, "If you can't say that you are ugly, you will be killed!"
The ministers were as quiet as chickens, and no one dared to be this bird.
Only the father-in-law of the sixth prince dared to stand up, he was the main battle faction, and the only seedling Hakyi died on the battlefield, he wanted to avenge his son.
The sixth prince was a little weak in the face of his father-in-law, so he barely suppressed his manic emotions and listened patiently to the other party's words.
The old man has only one core throughout the whole story - war!
As for the strategic layout, there is no mention of it, and the reckless man who is alive and well only has muscles in his head.
War?
What kind of war?
Take the head and fight the willow thief?
They have been blocked into the royal city by the willow thieves, and they are like the eight kings of ten thousand years, and their morale is extremely low, and they can't beat them at all.
The sixth prince endured the urge to vomit blood in his heart, and on the surface, he still had to stabilize the old man, but now he still has to rely on this old man.
"Report to the king, an arrow was shot from outside the city, and there was a letter from the willow thief on it. ”
The sixth prince perked up and hurriedly said, "Come quickly, see what is said above." ”
There were not many people in the Northern Xinjiang who knew the Han language, so in the end he could only pass the letter to the third prince and let him read it on his behalf.
When the third prince unfolded the letter, his face was as gloomy as ink, and his throat seemed to be choked with something, and he couldn't read a word.
"Third - even you have to disobey the order of the lonely king?"
The sixth prince was furious, and his anger caused him to breathe rapidly, his chest heaved violently, and he was panting like an ox.
The third prince was stunned for a moment, and read out the above content with difficulty.
The seventh prince and the eighth prince have become prisoners of the willow thief, and if the imperial court in northern Xinjiang wants to redeem the two, they must surrender in Kaicheng - the surrender of Kaesong is not over, and the imperial court will become a prisoner - if she is willing to agree to this condition, she will only clean up the imperial court and not hurt other nobles.
This is Jiang Pengji's ultimatum, if Beijiang doesn't know what to do, then don't blame her for being ruthless.
"Get out of here—all for the lonely one-" The sixth prince lost control of his emotions, he got up directly from the throne, strode to the third prince, snatched the letter from his hand, and tore it to pieces in three or two strokes, "Who does she Liu Xi think she is?
The Northern Imperial Court is the most noble race in Northern Xinjiang.
According to genealogical records, they are descendants of gods worshiped in northern Xinjiang, and their bloodline is extremely noble.
Don't think that only the Central Plains family pays attention to bloodline, and the barbarians in Northern Xinjiang care more about bloodline.
The Northern Imperial Court is a descendant of gods, they were born to control the creatures of the earth, and mere mortals still want to control their life and death?
Absurd!
However, the gods or something, to put it bluntly, they put gold on their faces.
If not, how could the imperial court be able to suppress other families in northern Xinjiang and become a royal family?
The third prince looked at the sixth prince's crazy and angry appearance, and asked coldly, "If not, what should the seventh and eighth do?"
The sixth prince angrily pulled out the dagger at his waist and said to the third prince, "Lone is the acting king, and you are just courtiers." Instead of worrying about the loneliness, you ask the loneliness what to do? Waste - all waste - what's the use of loneliness asking you for this waste?"
The third prince looked at each other coldly, he knew that the brother in front of him was about to be driven crazy.
The court was in chaos, and everyone was noisy and had no idea.
On the second day, a mobile arrow tower was pushed hundreds of paces away from the royal city, and two unarmed men hung on it.
It is the half-dead seventh prince and the eighth prince.
They wore two long strips around their necks with a few large bohemian characters written on them.
A long strip reads——[When the two princes died]
Another long strip reads - [The day our army broke the city, and you waited for the head of the owl]
At the end, the family emblem of the Liu clan is also painted, and the arrogance and arrogance are blowing in the face.
When the guards on the walls of the royal city saw this, their legs weakened with fright, and they hurriedly transmitted the news back to the imperial court.
The sixth prince sat stunned in place, his face was so dark that he couldn't look at it, and the courtiers who were arguing under the tent couldn't let him come back to his senses.
"On behalf of the king, the old minister is willing to ask Ying to go to war. ”
“…… Instead of being humiliated, it is better to integrate and go out of the city to fight to the death with the willow thief!"
The old man is bent on avenging his son, this is the only seedling in his vein.
Now that his only son is dead, he is equivalent to cutting off his children and grandchildren, and it is better to fight a battle in Kaesong than to be so humiliated by the enemy alive.
The old man regards death as home, and is willing to fight to the death for the royal family, but other nobles are unwilling.
Why die if you can live?
How much is backbone worth?
They don't pay attention to courtesy, righteousness, honesty, filial piety, and faithfulness.
As long as they live, they will continue to enjoy the glory and wealth, but only with a different allegiance to their master.
If surrender can save their lives, why should they be buried for the royal family?
"It's better to—come down—" said an old minister, his voice was not loud, but it attracted everyone's attention, and he said boldly, "Now that the willow thieves are in full swing, it is only a matter of time before the city is broken." Rather than increase casualties, it's better to get sooner-"
Before he could finish his sentence, a white light flashed in the air, his neck was cold, and hot blood splattered all over the ground.
The third prince retracted the knife from the scabbard and said with a gloomy face, "Surrender without a fight, you are still iron-clad men from the northern frontier?"
If Master Wu Liba was still there, he would definitely fight to the death, how could he have the idea of groveling to the enemy?
