Chapter 317: The King of the Northwest (3)
There is still a lot of trouble in the court because of the peace talks, and some ministers have even begun to attack the supreme king of the jade capital. This matter is now walking on thin ice, and there is no way to retreat for a moment, and at this time, a peace agreement called the King of the Northwest is presented.
"Holy Lord, this is a peace talk letter sent by the Lingshan Army...... The person who sent it said, this, this is, the meaning of the king of the northwest. "These three words are very novel!
"King of the Northwest?" Yu Qian's mouth smiled contemptuously, "Do you really think you are the king of the Northwest!?"
Mrs. Liang stepped forward and said, "Holy Lord, since this peace talk book was sent from the northwest, it may be different from the previous one. Why don't you take a look at it first?"
It's not bad for Yu Qian to think about it like this, open the letter and take a look, there is no change in the text inside, and he still has to use Yan Song as a bargaining chip to agree to withdraw from the army, in addition, he also added an article, from now on, he must recognize his identity as the king of the northwest and gain a foothold in the northwest with the vassal king.
"It's just nonsense!" Yu Qian slapped the table, everyone was a little frightened, and quickly knelt on the ground, "Since he wants to be king in the northwest!?"
Gu Shangshu stepped forward and said, "Holy Lord, now that the Northwest Army is menacing, not to mention, the Chen Army is also approaching the south of the Yangtze River one after another. It's better to say yes to them first, and then ......."
"Promise him?" Yu Qian chuckled and said, "Do you know what kind of army the Northwest Lingshan Army is? We Yu can't lose trust to the people, but they don't care about the word integrity, even if I promise them all the conditions today, they still turn their faces and don't recognize people." ”
Gu Shangshu retorted, "At least, Jade needs to survive this difficult time, and it can't mess with itself and let outsiders take advantage of the loopholes." The minister knows that the saint cares about the safety of the concubine Niangniang, but he also believes that the concubine Niangniang is willing to make this contribution for the people of my Yudu. ”
"Bastard......" he let out a sigh of relief, more like he was laughing, "Gu Shangshu has a noble personality, and everything is for the sake of the people of Yudu. In that case, there is no need to let the concubine go, and sending me to such a first-class minister should better reflect our sincerity, right?"
Gu Shangshu said in a panic, "What are the words of the Holy Lord? If the Northwest Army really wants Weichen as a bargaining chip in peace talks, it is not a pity for Weichen to die." But the saint, now the Northwest Army has named the noble concubine Niangniang, and it ......is natural for Niangniang to do these things for the people of Yudu," everyone in the hall agreed.
"It should be ......," he smiled bitterly, clutching the peace book tightly in his hand, "In your opinion, the sacrifice of an insignificant person is a matter of course?...... There is nothing that should be taken for granted in this world, and what she chooses is only related to herself, not for you to stand on the highest point of morality to judge whether a person should or should not. ”
Mrs. Liang also agreed with this point of view and said, "What the Holy Lord said is good. If the concubine is willing to sacrifice for the jade capital, it is the noble character of the concubine, and if the concubine is unwilling, it is also the choice of the concubine herself, and no one is allowed to judge her. Because, in the end, you are not the ones to sacrifice!"
"Old man Liang!" Gu Shangshu stared at him directly, "You can't see the current form clearly, are you? Now that the war is urgent, you still say such things, do you think about the people of Yudu!
"Gu Shangshu, why aren't you for your own wishes, if it was your daughter today, would you stand up and speak so righteously?"
"You!" Gu Shangshu didn't continue to ignore Taifu Liang, but knelt down in the center and spoke directly, "Holy Lord, what is the current battle situation, you know better than us whether or not you can successfully negotiate peace with the Northwest Army, what is related is not personal interests, but the life and death of the entire Jade Capital. If you really don't agree, the minister swears to death, and the concubine will also be sent to the northwest to return peace to the people!"
"The ministers and Gu Shangshu play together!"
…… The current situation is very unfavorable to Yuqian, and officials of all sizes in the court and the central government remind him of the importance of this matter all the time, but let him send Yan Song to the northwest, he would rather not be the emperor and the king of this jade capital.
"Holy Lord, do you really plan to spend it like this?" asked Fengchen from the side.
He frowned, his eyes still falling on the front-line battle report, "Could it be that you also think the same as Gu Shangshu's old fox?"
Fengchen immediately shook his head and said, "I am naturally on the side of the Holy Lord, a war involves a woman, and the Northwest Army does not respect us enough." What's more, if Miss Yan goes to the northwest, she may have to suffer a lot...... Of course, it is the saints who suffer the most. ”
Unable to listen to Fengchen's sensational words, he coughed and said, "Since you think so, then help me do something......
Fengchen's eyes lit up, and he asked anxiously, "What's the matter?"
"Tomorrow, send Yan Song to Jiangnan. He kept his voice as low as he could.
Fengchen half-opened his mouth and whispered in surprise, "Jiang Nan, what are you doing here, you want to transport her out secretly......"
"If it goes on like this, in this palace, I can't keep her anymore, let her go to Jiangnan. At least there is Shen Quansheng there to take care of her, maybe she can rest assured......"
Fengchen immediately said, "Shengshang, but if you send Miss Yan out of the palace, won't you be clearly against Gu Shangshu and them......!
"Suffering?" he put down the scroll in his hand, "Do you think I'm not suffering enough now?" Fengchen didn't dare to say.
It's just that what Yu Qian ordered this time is really difficult to do, first, Gu Shangshu's people were already installed in this palace; second, if this move is done, the saint will inevitably encounter the danger of forcing the palace, if it doesn't work, the saint will inevitably be seized by Gu Shangshu and others, and thus forced into the palace again.
He shook his head and sighed, his master really didn't push himself into a corner......
In the Fengyin Palace, Yan Song's symptoms of coughing up blood have improved a lot in the past few days, and there is no problem getting out of bed to walk or read. So, she couldn't stop looking through the scroll for a moment, even if Ah Chun persuaded her, but it was useless, once she picked up the book, she couldn't let go of the scroll and saw it late at night.
"Miss, don't you want to take the medicine sent by the saint?" she nodded slightly, still looking at the book in her hand.
Ah Xia muttered the news he heard today, "I heard that the northwest sent a peace talk book today...... The book in his hand finally stopped, and he turned to look at Ah Xia.
"Peace talks?"
Ah Xia nodded, "I heard that this time it was sent in the name of the King of the Northwest, and the Holy Lord was directly furious in the court!"
She didn't care about the new title of the king of the northwest, and asked anxiously, "Peace talks, but what has changed?"
Ah Xia looked embarrassed, and then said, "No, in the peace talks, you are still used as a bargaining chip, and the Holy Lord is also asked to confirm his identity as the king of the northwest. You say, can the saint not be angry?" She had a glimmer of hope that Yu Heng would let her go and let her stay in Yudu.
But she seems to have underestimated people's ambitions, and when a raging fire burns, what can a gust of spring breeze blow out?
