Mang Ying stared at Emperor Deyang, his eyes really flashed with the same essence as the eagle, Emperor Deyang's heart was said by him, his eyebrows jumped, and he said sharply, "Chongzhao is the hero of my Great Zhou, and he can't be slandered like this by others!" ”

"But Tana is the daughter of our steppe," said the eagle, unfazed, "whatever you do, just return her to us." ”

Emperor Deyang didn't agree immediately, he sat on the chair and waved his hand after thinking for a while, "I think about it." ”

"The minister retreated," Mang Ying did not chase and fight, because he had already made up his mind, Emperor Deyang would definitely agree, not only in exchange for the people to stabilize their own reputation, but also to punish those who betrayed him, why not?

He Runji poured a cup of tea, Emperor Deyang's mouth was dry, and he drank it all.

The hot tea flowed through his throat, and Emperor Deyang tiredly supported his brow with two fingers, as if something was quietly eating away at his heart, and the deliberately suppressed hatred unconsciously appeared.

To abandon the country only for one woman is for infidelity; I treated him like a brother, but he left me for injustice.

Those who are disloyal and unrighteous should be punished.

When Emperor Deyang put down his finger, he had already made a decision, this is the emperor.

"Old General Qin should enter the palace in two days to report on his work, right?"

"Back to the emperor," and Run's voice wilted, "three days later." ”

"Okay," Emperor Deyang nodded thoughtfully, and began to review the chapters.

Three days later, Qin Tengfang, who had traveled thousands of miles to the palace to report on his work, never thought that he would have one more big task.

"Minister Qin Tengfang pays a visit to my emperor!"

"Old General Qin, please get up quickly," Emperor Deyang personally got up to greet him, Qin Tengfang was an old minister of the two dynasties, and everyone respected him quite a lot.

It's just that Qin Tengfang was confused, in the past, he finished talking about his work in the Jinluan Palace, and then he was praised by Emperor Deyang, and the ministers praised it, and then returned to Mobei with the rewards and grain and grass they deserved, because he was afraid of falling into the handle, he never stayed long.

But today Emperor Deyang said that he wanted to find himself to reminisce about the past, one of them was a monarch and the other was a minister, there was nothing to talk about, and when Emperor Deyang succeeded to the throne, his attitude was neutral, but in fact, the dissatisfaction in his heart was well known, and there was nothing old to tell.

"You all stand down," Emperor Deyang retreated, and this time even He Run was driven away.

Qin Tengfang was even more curious about what kind of medicine was sold in this emperor's gourd.

"There is one thing that needs to be done by Old General Qin," Emperor Deyang waited for everyone to leave before he said slowly, "I wonder if Old General Qin is willing?" ”

There's nothing to be willing or not, you're the emperor, did you say I had anything to refute?

"The minister originally worked for the emperor." Qin Tengfang said loudly.

"Okay," Emperor Deyang nodded with great satisfaction, put the pen on the table, and said seriously, "Can Mobei afford to fight again?" ”

"This..."Qin Tengfang didn't know what he meant by this, but it was absolutely impossible to bully the king, "Back to the emperor, it has been less than five years since the war subsided, and our army's vitality has not yet recovered, and it has been recruiting troops recently... If you crusade against other countries, please think twice! ”

Emperor Deyang grimaced, noncommittal.

Now Qin Tengfang is even more uncertain, could it be that he answered wrong?

"Yan Chongzhao's place to bury his name was arranged by you, right?"

"It's Zaichen's hometown, Wynn City!"

"Then you must be the one who is most familiar with where his family is," Emperor Deyang looked at him in a deep voice, his tone cold and meaningful, "Go and take Chu Wudan... Bring it out to me? ”

"What?" Qin Tengfang blurted out, he never thought of stealing his old friend's wife.

Emperor Deyang's reaction to him was already expected, he took a sip of tea unhurriedly, and said in a gossiping tone, "Our Great Zhou, it is true that we can't withstand any war, but the barbarians are all wolves who don't want to die, especially Jibha." ”

Qin Tengfang knew this very well, and it seemed that the barbarians wanted to take Chu Wudan back.

Sure enough, Emperor Deyang continued slowly, "Tana is the daughter of the former Khan En and Jin, and it is reasonable for the barbarians to want to take him back. ”

"You can exchange one person for the stability of my Great Zhou, are you willing?"

Qin Tengfang hesitated and didn't answer.

"But Chongzhao is definitely unwilling, my Great Zhou's rivers and mountains can be Heqing Haiyan without spending a single soldier, what should I do?"

"Minister... This..."Qin Tengfang seemed to burn his tongue, and his heart was also in a mess, no matter how he looked at it, this practice was extremely cowardly, and it was very reluctant, not the big husband's doing. But what Emperor Deyang said was the truth, and the country was stable and couldn't withstand the toss.

Emperor Deyang observed his every move, not even the slightest expression, and saw that the time was almost up before he spoke, "Don't think about it, when you go back to Mobei and pass by Wynn City, do this matter, I will let the barbarian eagle accompany me, and it can be regarded as letting Tana return to her hometown." ”

Mang Ying, this person Qin Tengfang knows, he was deeply used by Eun and Jin back then, and was responsible for delivering news to Tana and him, and he was also another person from the "Swimming Snake". After Chu Wudan confessed to Yan Chongzhao, both of them chose to let go of Mang Ying, Enhejin may have expected that his position as Khan would be short, or the situation of the barbarians was turbulent, Enhejin agreed to this family affair, and even sent some gifts to the Pingsha General's Mansion.

I don't know what the purpose of the barbarians is to bring back Chu Wudan, in order to restrain General Pingsha? But he has already buried his name, and he does not have any military power, so he does not have any threat.

What else could that be for? It is almost impossible to restrain Emperor Deyang and himself.

This behavior is undoubtedly sorry for Yan Chongzhao, he was born and died for Da Zhou, and now he has withdrawn to catch his wife? Even if the reason for this retirement is this lady, he should not forget everything he has done for Da Zhou.

Could it be that Emperor Daodaoyang's understanding of Yan Chongzhao was fake? In fact, he really wanted to punish Yan Chongzhao?

In just a few moments, Qin Tengfang's heart was already filled with all kinds of strange thoughts, and then he looked at Emperor Deyang, his expression was flat, and he couldn't see any guilt, this old general who had been fighting horses for half his life suddenly felt a chill.

"Can the old general think about it?"

"Minister..."Qin Tengfang gritted his teeth and knelt on the ground, "The minister is unwilling!" Ministers can't do such vile and filthy things! ”

Emperor Deyang slapped his palm on the table, "Presumptuous! ”

"Don't dare..."

"You mean I'm despicable and filthy!"

"The minister has no such intention!" Qin Tengfang felt as if his head had floated to the ground of the noon gate.

"I'm not still for the sake of the Great Zhou!" Emperor Deyang paced back and forth angrily around the table, "You measure it yourself!" Not to mention how much financial resources it will cost to fight a war, even people will die as much as they want! ”

"Now only one person can be exchanged for the stability of the people of Dazhou! Otherwise, why bother with that barbarian? ”

This is true, but Qin Tengfang's husband just can't do this kind of thing, "You are hurting the hearts of the old ministers by doing this!" ”

"If I don't do this, it will hurt the hearts of the people of Dazhou!" Emperor Deyang's shouts had almost turned into a roar.

Qin Tengfang slammed his head to the ground, "Please think twice, the emperor!" ”

No one spoke for a long time, and Emperor Deyang sat on the chair as if deflated and pressed his eyebrows hard.

Regardless of whether Chongzhao is his old friend or not, whether he is a hero of the Great Zhou Dynasty or not, Qin Tengfang has no way to cross the hurdle in his heart, although he already has a high-sounding reason - loyalty to the country.

Neither advance nor retreat, although Emperor Deyang's approach is despicable, it is the best way to alleviate the war, no matter who the barbarians want is himself, Qin Tengfang will not hesitate to agree.

"Get up," Emperor Deyang sighed after a while, as if he was extremely tired, his brows tightly twisted together, "Except for you, no one has such skills, and I don't worry about anyone else." ”

"It's up to you."

"Your Majesty!" Qin Tengfang burst into tears, "Absolutely not!" This not only insults your reputation, but also slaps me in the face..."

Smack-

Emperor Deyang threw the teacup in his hand out violently, and the whole person was furious, and shouted, "Don't resist the order!" ”

"Minister..."Qin Tengfang's voice trembled, like falling into an ice cave, "Obey the order..."

The king wants the minister to die, and the minister has to die, let alone what the king wants the minister to do?

I'm still too pedantic and too stupid. Qin Tengfang looked at the indifferent emperor in front of him, he was even more affectionate than back then, if he were Qin Yan, he would never agree.

If he were to choose again, he would still choose to take the reckless eagle to rob Chu Wudan, who was shopping for vegetables and preparing to cook at home, because he would give up everything for the sake of the king and the people of the Great Zhou, including his own shame.

Since that day, Qin Tengfang has always felt that the arrogance of half his life is gone, and he is embarrassed to think about the things he was proud of, and he has never boasted about how heroic he was when he fought on the battlefield back then.

All the merits were crushed by their own despicable and shameless deeds.

But Emperor Deyang didn't think so, I don't know when he began to feel that everything was as it should be, Yan Chongzhao should sacrifice his wife to ensure the stability of the Great Zhou, and Qin Tengfang should help the barbarians snatch the wives of the heroes of the Great Zhou.

Just because they are kings, they are ministers. What they are worried about is the world, and they are only worried about those few people and those few things.

"The minister retreated," Qin Tengfang did not answer Emperor Deyang's question, and got up without any politeness to leave.

"Old general," Emperor Deyang didn't blame, but suddenly raised his voice, "What has been done, don't be daunted, you are an old hero in the hearts of the people of the Great Zhou." ”

"The minister is not worthy!"

"You are worthy," Emperor Deyang stood up slowly, looking at his back, "Whether you are worthy or not depends on your choice this time, you are old, but Qin Xi is still too young, whether it is Mobei or Da Zhou, you need to ask Chongzhao to come back, you have to be clear about this." ”

Qin Tengfang's footsteps only paused, and then he walked out as quickly as he ran, although he couldn't see his expression, but Emperor Deyang just knew that this old general who had been fighting all his life had once again compromised.
