Chapter 36: The Great Zhou Emperor's Touch
Great Zhou Empire.
Inside the Royal Palace.
Emperor Ji Wu of the Great Zhou Dynasty looked at the letter in front of him with a solemn face.
Beads of sweat broke out on his forehead.
The recent events of Da Zhou have made him feel anxious.
When he ordered the whole city to be rebuilt, not only did not the people turn to him, but on the contrary, they made the people resentful of him even more.
According to his understanding, some corrupt officials, after embezzling money, forced the people to pay for their own materials and renovate their houses in order to give him an explanation.
If it is not renovated, it will be regarded as rebellion......
In this case, the people were almost driven to a dead end.
It happened that in a city outside the capital of the Great Zhou, there were people who rebelled.
The emergence of the rebel army attracted hundreds of people to join in, and the rebel army attacked fiercely, causing several cities to fall.
Even the capital almost fell in the last battle, because the people of the capital all worked together to open the city gates and let the rebels in......
If it weren't for the timely return of a legion guarding the north, he might have lost his head by now.
After that, the Northern Army put down the rebels.
Although the rebels were put down, the national strength of the Great Zhou also began to decline wildly......
What made Ji Wu feel the most troublesome was that the Northern Army came down to help, causing other countries to start invading the Great Zhou.
Now that the war is raging, all kinds of resources have begun to show a trend of not being in supply, and he can't help but feel anxious.
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, the envoy we sent to Datang has returned."
A eunuch walked into the palace and whispered.
"Coming back? Let him in. ”
The Great Zhou Emperor wiped the sweat off his forehead, put down the fold, and panted.
He can only hope that Datang will not make a move at this time.
If the Tang Emperor, who is eloquent and has an extremely vicious vision, makes a move......
He was really not sure that he would be able to hold Da Zhou.
"Yes, Your Majesty."
The eunuch left the temple.
After a while, the Great Zhou envoy was brought into the palace.
The moment the Great Zhou envoy saw Emperor Ji Wu, he knelt down in panic and said, "See Your Majesty!" ”
He couldn't help but be afraid.
The Emperor of the Tang Dynasty actually rewarded their majesty.
And the holy decree is still in his hand, he is afraid that if he takes it out, he will be stabbed to death by the emperor's sword......
"What happened to this trip to Datang? Let's take it into detail. ”
Ji Wu exhaled, waved his hand and said.
The Great Zhou envoy hesitated for a moment and told the emperor everything that happened in the Tang Dynasty.
Among them was the Tang Emperor's public humiliation of Ji Wu.
Originally, the Great Zhou envoy thought that the emperor would feel angry after hearing this.
Unexpectedly, Emperor Ji Wu looked indifferent, and did not look angry at all.
And so it is......
Ji Wu not only did not have any anger, but on the contrary, there was a burst of happiness.
Is the Tang Emperor angry?
Because he saw through the layout of the Tang Emperor, the Tang Emperor became angry and humiliated him in public.
"Is that all?"
Ji Wu said with a smile.
When the envoy of the Great Zhou saw the emperor's smile, he was stunned for a moment, and then said: "The emperor of the Tang Dynasty also sent a holy decree, and the princess also sent a letter back. ”
Divine decree? Letter?
Ji Wu raised his eyebrows slightly, raised his hand and said, "Show me the princess's letter first, right?" ”
He is still very interested in this princess.
Because this princess is too smart......
The loss is the daughter's body.
If it is a man's body, whether this throne is his or not is still two words.
The Great Zhou envoy took out a letter from his waist.
Ji Wu opened the letter and looked at it carefully.
After he finished reading it, he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
Really.
The Tang Emperor really wanted to invade the Great Zhou, but he was unknown.
It's a shame that he noticed it, otherwise Da Zhou would really come to an end.
If his previous speculation about himself only felt that there was a 99% chance that it was true, then after reading this letter, he was 100% sure!
Come to think of it, the Tang Emperor will not be ill-intentioned towards the Great Zhou in a short period of time, right?
Ji Wu's hanging heart finally relaxed, and he waved his hand and said, "You can read the holy decree given to me by the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty to me." ”
Reading the Decree?
The expression on the face of the Great Zhou envoy suddenly became wonderful, and he wanted to die, if he read it, he still had a dog's life?
"Your Majesty...... The content of this decree is not very good, or you don't need to read it, right? ”
His voice trembled.
Not so good content?
Could it be that the Tang Emperor humiliated him?
Ji Wu shook his head and said, "Don't worry, no matter what the content, I will forgive you for your innocence." ”
He didn't have any anger in his mind.
On the contrary, there is a faint comfort.
can be insulted by such an eloquent emperor, that is also a proof of his strength.
When the envoy of the Great Zhou heard this, he could only grit his teeth, take out the holy decree and open it, looked at the content on it, and said in a trembling voice: "Over the years of Chengde, the emperor's edict has been ......."
He had just finished reading this sentence, as if he had lost his strength, and he couldn't read it no matter what.
Seeing this, Ji Wu frowned slightly, and scolded: "Waste, bring the holy decree here, I want to see what is written, so that you dare not read it." ”
The envoy of the Great Zhou Dynasty hurriedly handed the holy decree to the emperor as if he were about to receive an amnesty.
Ji Wu opened the holy decree and watched it.
After reading it, he couldn't help but tremble.
The content of the holy decree is all translated into the text of the Great Zhou, and the meaning is almost like saying that he is a, which is not the point, what shocked him.
In the name of 'reward', the Tang Emperor actually sent 10 million taels of silver, armor, war horses, grain and grass, and countless other ......
Is this the Tang Emperor aware of his situation in the Great Zhou, suppressing the hundred officials in the name of rewards, and forcibly giving him the assistance of the Great Zhou?
"Brother Tang Emperor, take great pains to ......"
Ji Wu's eyes were red, and a warm current crossed his heart.
The most ruthless imperial family.
He sat on the throne of the King of God and was destined to be ruthless all his life.
For example, in his current situation, who of those ministers is willing to help him on weekdays? They all lowered their heads, and none of them jumped out of their fart ideas.
In this case, it was the Tang Emperor who actually gave him assistance.
Perhaps the emperor knows the emperor best......
"Your Majesty, this is given to you privately by the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty, and he sent someone to tell me, I can only show you."
The Great Zhou envoy gritted his teeth and took out another letter.
Ji Wu opened the letter and watched.
Inside the letter was a map, on which the military deployment of various parts of the Tang Dynasty was drawn.
"Brother Tang Emperor...... This is because I am worried that I will not be able to defeat it, and when the time comes, I can rely on this map to escape into the Tang Dynasty, avoid the major military deployment places, and live a good life? Brother Tang Emperor, it's really ......"
Thoughts flashed in Ji Wu's heart, he didn't expect that this eloquent Tang Emperor would care so much about him.
It's not because he saw through the layout of the Tang Imperial Brother.
The Tang Emperor thinks that he is very smart, and heroes cherish heroes, so he can't bear to see that he may die in the future and leave this map?
