"Humph! Look at how arrogant this Yan Burning Abyss is, he dares to make such a request! ”

After the early dynasty, Emperor Tianshui left Situ Jingtian, Wu Yunyang, General Liu, Run Wangye, Zhou Zichuan and several officials alone to discuss the matter. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

"What do you think about this matter, and how should you deal with it?"

"Your Majesty, the old minister thinks that since Yanhuo Country intends to reconcile and does not need to spend too much price, why not do it. Miss Wu's sacrifice alone can be exchanged for five years of peace and contentment and recuperation for the border people, and I don't think Lord Wu will object to it. ”

Without waiting for the ministers to speak, Zhou Zichuan said first. After finishing speaking, he also raised his eyes and glanced at Wu Yunyang, whose face was pale, and the provocation in his eyes was not obvious.

"You ......"

Wu Yunyang's face changed, and even though he wanted to take a step forward to reason with Zhou Zichuan, he was stopped by Situ Jingtian and General Liu who were standing aside.

"Sacrificing a woman in exchange for a temporary peace in the country is something that a minister would never agree.

If one woman can be exchanged for peace between the two countries, then what do we need to do as border guards, the country does not need to guard a large number of soldiers in the border city, just send a few women directly to each neighboring country! ”

Snorted coldly at Zhou Zichuan, General Liu, who rarely participated in the affairs of the court after returning to Beijing, walked out and bowed to Emperor Tianshui.

"If peace can be obtained just by sending a few women, then the blood of our border guards will not be in vain! Besides, Your Majesty, this Yanhuo country is famous for not keeping its word and going back on its word.

Ten years ago, my Tianshui Kingdom defeated the Yanhuo Kingdom and hit his border, and at that time, the king of the Yanhuo Kingdom admitted defeat and surrendered to our country.

But six years ago, just four years have passed, the Yanhuo Kingdom has relapsed, and came to the border of our country to burn and plunder, and finally the young King Jing led the troops to defend the city, and finally waited for the arrival of the army, and defeated the enemy of the Yanhuo Country. ”

Seeing Emperor Tianshui's thoughtful expression, General Liu turned around to look at the expressions of the surrounding ministers of civil and military affairs.

"It's not that my Tianshui Kingdom can't defeat the Yanhuo Country, besides, now the Yanhuo Kingdom is still nominally defeated and submitted to our country, so why should they ask us to send them beautiful women for peace!"

"General Liu is right, my father and son-in-law agree with General Liu's idea. The son pleaded with his father to reject Yan Yanyuan's proposal. ”

Situ Jingtian stood up, the first to express his approval of General Liu, and knelt in front of Emperor Tianshui.

"The old minister also asked the emperor not to agree to let the minister's daughter reconcile in order to seek peace."

Wu Yunyang did not hesitate, and immediately followed behind Situ Jingtian and knelt down.

"Your Majesty, although General Liu's words are not unreasonable, but when the war broke out, countless soldiers and civilians were killed and wounded every year. Even for the sake of these people and sergeants, isn't it good that sacrificing one Wu Tianrou can be exchanged for five years of peace and let the people recuperate?

Master Wu, are you so selfish, disregarding the safety of the people in the world, and insisting that you don't want your daughter to sacrifice for the country? ”

Seeing that Emperor Tianshui was shaken, Zhou Zichuan immediately stood up again, and Wu Yunyang's eyes were cold.

"Humph! Nonsense! Let me ask the people and soldiers of the Tianshui Kingdom, do they have to hide behind the women and seek safety! ”

When the rest of the officials didn't dare to speak out, King Run stood up.

"The people of Yanhuo have no credit, everyone knows it, Lord Zhou, if you let your daughter do such a meaningless relationship, are you willing?"

"This is that Zaichen has a second daughter, otherwise for the sake of the country, Weichen will never tolerate a daughter!"

Showing his loyalty to Emperor Tianshui, Zhou Zichuan did not forget to raise his eyebrows and look at Lord Run, his eyes full of coldness.

Weichen agreed with Lord Zhou's proposal, Wu Tianrou can dedicate herself to the country, this is her honor. Why did Lord Wu block everywhere and disagree. ”

Qin Shou, the waiter of the Ministry of Works, hurriedly began to support Zhou Zichuan, causing General Liu and Wu Yunyang on the side to frown.

"You ......"

Wang Ye Run was angered by the shamelessness of Zhou Zichuan and Qin Shou, and was about to say a few more words, when Emperor Tianshui, who was sitting at the top, coughed and suppressed the tension on both sides.

"Okay, let's not say a word. Master Wu, Sedum, you should get up first. ”

Coughing twice, Emperor Tianshui raised his eyes to look at the people standing below. Obviously, the officials below were divided into two factions, one faction was led by General Yanagi, who was resolutely opposed to exchanging a woman's happiness for an ethereal temporary peace.

The other faction, led by Zhou Zichuan, agreed to exchange a small sacrifice for five years of peace, and supported Wu Tianrou to make peace.

Looking at the officials on both sides who were a little tense, Emperor Tianshui also had a headache.

To be honest, if he didn't spend a single soldier to get five years of recuperation, he thought it would be very cost-effective. But what General Liu and Lord Run said is also good, it is normal for the people of Yanhuo to rebel, who knows if what they said this time can be taken seriously.

Just when Emperor Tianshui was silent and his brain was broken, Emperor Tianshui's personal eunuch Yun Gonggong walked in.

"Your Majesty, the Queen Mother learned about the Yanhuo Kingdom, and specially ordered someone to send something to the emperor."

"What is it, please present it."

Unexpectedly, even the Queen Mother was alarmed, Emperor Tianshui frowned, and beckoned to the little eunuch holding the tray behind Gonggong Yun.

"Yes."

The little eunuch bowed and bowed, then walked up with the tray and sent the tray to Emperor Tianshui's eyes.

The tray was covered with a red cloth, and Emperor Tianshui gently uncovered the red cloth, revealing the hilt of the short sword underground, and his face suddenly became serious.

"Alas, the sword used by the emperor during the expedition ......"

Emperor Tianshui took the hilt of the broken sword in his hand and couldn't help but sigh.

In the early years of the emperor's state turmoil, the Yanhuo country often violated the border, so the emperor often drove the expedition in person, with the bravery and command on the battlefield, the Tianshui country was able to stabilize the situation so quickly and was recognized by the surrounding countries.

However, during a battle with the Flame Kingdom, the sword was cut off by the king of the Flame Kingdom at the time, and although the Emperor finally defeated the Flame King, he himself was seriously injured. In the end, within a few years, the fairy passed away, which is also an eternal pain in the heart of the queen of heaven.

Now that the Queen Mother has taken out this broken sword, it can be seen that her meaning is already obvious.

Emperor Tianshui put the broken sword back into the tray, and after a little groaning, he raised his head again.

"I've made up my mind about this time. Yanhuo Country has always been untrustworthy, and the soldiers of my Tianshui Country are brave and good at fighting, and they are not afraid of the army of the Fire Country at all, and my Tianshui Country does not need to send beautiful women to Yanhuo Country to ask for peace! ”

Glancing at the ministers underground, Emperor Tianshui smiled on his face.

"Send someone to inform Yan Yanyuan, my Tianshui Kingdom does not agree to his request, I am willing to fight peace, follow him!"

"My Emperor Shengming! ......" (To be continued.) )
