"Your Majesty...... General Wu...... General Wu he ...... Killed in battle......"

Li Jingyao suddenly got up, looked at the person kneeling in front of the hall in disbelief, and said in a trembling voice: "What! The tens of thousands of soldiers at the city gate couldn't even cope with the hundreds of people in his Song Dynasty? Even Wei Zhong ......"

"Humble and incompetent! Ask the emperor for forgiveness! Several lieutenants lowered their heads extremely low, not daring to look at Li Jingyao's gaze at all. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

It's embarrassing to say such a thing, Li Jingyao's chest was a little breathless, and his head hurt like a pinprick, Sheng Zhi hurriedly stepped forward to help him: "Your Majesty ......"

"Your Majesty, the eight-hundred-mile emergency has arrived!" A little eunuch rushed into the main hall without vision and said urgently.

Li Jingyao raised his eyelids and looked at him for a long time before he said to the person beside him: "Take it and read it to me." ”

"Yes." Sheng Zhe didn't dare to delay, hurriedly got down the jade steps, hurriedly took the urgent report, and opened it in front of Li Jingyao, trembling with a mouth but unable to say half a word.

Li Jingyao waited for a long time, and finally couldn't wait, snatched the emergency report, glared at Sheng Zhe and looked at the emergency report, even if he was mentally prepared, he couldn't help but feel shocked.

Zhao Kuangyin's actions were so fast, he had already captured ten cities in a row, if he didn't take any action, he was afraid that the entire Southern Tang Dynasty would be swallowed up by him.

But what's even worse is far more than that, how did Yuan Qi, who was far away in Zhaozhou, rebelled with 100,000 soldiers and teamed up with the new monarch of Southern Chu to recover the prefectures of Southern Chu, which was no less fast than Zhao Kuangyin.

"Your Majesty ......" Sheng Zhe saw that his face was pale, he was very anxious, he didn't know what to say, and the few people kneeling in front of the palace also secretly knew that things were not good, and they didn't even dare to breathe.

The urgent report slipped from Li Jingyao's hand, he held his forehead and closed his eyes and said, "Let's all go out, let me be quiet." ”

The lieutenants looked incredulous, got up and saluted, and quickly exited the hall in a panic.

"What have I done wrong all these years? actually turned a good Southern Tang Dynasty with a harmonious world into this situation! Nowadays, the court wants talents without talents, generals without generals, the land is unguarded, and the court is empty! The appearance of Song Chaozong's external strength and middle cadres is really good! The more Li Jingyao thought about it, the more angry he became, and his chest rose and fell violently, and he coughed violently.

Sheng Zhe never intervened in these things, but seeing that Li Jingyao was so troubled, he couldn't help but step forward and ask, "Then what is the emperor going to do?" Summation? ”

"Summation?!" Li Jingyao opened his eyes suddenly, and his two eyes were as fierce as knives on Sheng Zhe's face, Sheng Zhe was shocked, and was about to apologize, but the eyes of the person in front of him suddenly darkened, and he lowered his head and said, "Seek peace...... Scold...... What can I do now but make a peace? I've gotten to this point, and I don't have a choice. ”

What does it mean to sue for peace, it means that Li Jingyao will be removed from the emperor's title, and the Southern Tang Dynasty will become a vassal state of the Song State, not to mention the tribute to the Song State every year, Li Jingyao will also submit to Zhao Kuangyin.

Sheng Zhen paused and asked, "What's that...... Does the emperor plan to summon the ministers to the palace for discussion? ”

"There's no need for this, things have come to this point, presumably they also know it, in other words, they have rushed to me in the past, chattering endlessly, but you see how many people have come to me in the past few days? How many more people have come up with advice? ”

In fact, these ministers are not cowardly and timid to see Li Jingyao, but they can't think of a way not to meet him with such a face.

As soon as the words fell, the little eunuch went back and forth, and said softly: "Your Majesty, the prime minister is asking to see you outside." ”

Li Jingyao raised his head slightly, and his mood was completely different from the past when he heard the word prime minister, and he was still a little happy in his heart, and today he is probably the only one who is still persevering.

"The old minister sees the emperor!" Zhou Yongnan said and made a big salute, Li Jingyao hurriedly stepped forward to stop him, and said in a low voice, "The prime minister doesn't have to be like this, there are no outsiders here, just say anything." ”

Zhou Yongnan's body shook suddenly, and he was shocked by Li Jingyao's words, and he was stunned for a moment before he reacted, and asked in a low voice: "The old minister heard that General Wu was killed in battle, and he came to ask the emperor about his next plans." ”

"What are the prime minister's plans?"

Zhou Yongnan was shocked again, Li Jingyao had never faced his opinion so seriously, and coughed lightly and said, "Your Majesty!" This Zhao Kuangyin wolf ambition is eyeing my Southern Tang Dynasty, if I don't prepare in time, I am afraid that I will become a prisoner of the Song Kingdom......"

Li Jingyao turned around and handed him the eight-hundred-mile emergency report on the dragon case, Zhou Yongnan opened the eight-hundred-mile emergency report with a curious gaze, but his eyes couldn't help but be shocked, and he was shocked: "How could Zhao Kuangyin's movements be so fast?" It's ......"

Without waiting for him to finish speaking, Li Jingyao reminded again: "The prime minister has read all this urgent report first, and then let's talk about it." ”

Zhou Yongnan immediately squinted his eyes and looked at the emergency report seriously, and finally firmly grasped the eight-hundred-mile emergency report in the palm of his hand, staggered back two steps, and beat his chest excitedly: "This is the day to die in the Southern Tang Dynasty!" ”

"Why is the prime minister so excited? But there is a solution to everything. Li Jingyao saw that his face was full of old tears, and couldn't help but reach out to Sheng Zhe to ask for a handkerchief, and handed it to Zhou Yongnan.

Zhou Yongnan gratefully took the handkerchief, wiped his old tears, and asked with a trembling voice: "Could it be that the emperor already has any good ideas in his heart?" ”

"It's not a good idea, maybe it's not even an idea." Li Jingyao turned sideways and said in a cold voice, "I decided to fulfill Zhao Kuangyin's heart and make peace with Song Guo. ”

"Summation! Never, Your Majesty! This matter of seeking peace is too important, and it is a great blow to the court and the people! As the elder of the two countries, Zhou Yongnan naturally did not want to watch the dynasty that the first emperor had worked so hard to build submit to another lord.

This is undoubtedly the greatest humiliation to the first emperor!

"So according to the Prime Minister's opinion, what should I do? Gather all the troops of the Southern Tang Dynasty and fight to the death? Prime minister, don't forget, in addition to Zhao Kuangyin, there are also the means of Nanchu Xinjun! I have no other way now than to be useful and plot for the future! Li Jingyao's voice was not loud, but it was so harsh and shocking when it reached Zhou Yongnan's ears.

He was silent for a long time, and Li Jingyao also accompanied him to be silent until Zhou Yongnan sighed and said, "Eh...... Since Providence is so...... So that's it......"

"But for the matter of Nanchu Xinjun, I won't stop there!" Li Jingyao slowly walked up the jade steps, held a talisman on the dragon case in the palm of his hand, and said in a fierce tone, "Song Chaozong!" You have caused me so embarrassed, and you have caused Nantang so badly, then I will never let your six-year plan come true! ”
