Chapter 807: Deliberation and Decision
This really couldn't help but make Qin Meiniang very suspicious that there was a conspiracy behind the emperor's request for peace.
Because for a while, Qin Meiniang couldn't figure out whether the matter of the envoy sent by the Great Britain Kingdom to sue for peace was true or not, but she didn't come up with the conspiracy that the Great Britain Kingdom might use for the time being, so the matter was put on hold for the time being.
The reason why Qin Meiniang gave the Great Britain Kingdom ten days to give an answer, she also wanted to think about it carefully, if the Great Britain Kingdom was sincerely seeking peace, then she was naturally very happy, as long as the Great Britain Kingdom was willing to return the city of the Golden Phoenix Kingdom that it had taken away, and then compensate the Golden Phoenix Kingdom for a thousand taels of gold, this was the best result, but if the Great Britain Kingdom was pretending to seek peace and had another purpose behind it, then she was very worried that the Golden Phoenix Kingdom would fall into an unfavorable situation again.
Therefore, for the fact that the Great Britain Kingdom suddenly sent an envoy to make peace with the Golden Phoenix Kingdom, Qin Meiniang did not dare to make a decision easily, at this time, she must be more cautious, because she knew that the more she reached this critical time, the more she could not make mistakes, and she could not give the Great Britain Kingdom any chance.
The leader of the guards of the Golden Phoenix Kingdom also quickly took the envoy of the Great Britain Kingdom out of the palace gate of the Golden Phoenix Kingdom.
After leaving the gate of the palace of the Golden Phoenix Kingdom, the leader of the guards of the Golden Phoenix Kingdom also said to the guards under him:
"Hurry up and bring the messenger's horse."
The guards of the Golden Phoenix Kingdom also hugged their fists at the leader of the soldiers of the Golden Phoenix Kingdom:
"Yes, leader."
The guards of the Golden Phoenix Kingdom also ran quickly to lead the horse to the envoy of the Great Britain Kingdom.
The leader of the guards of the Golden Phoenix Kingdom also hugged his fists at the envoy of the Great Britain Kingdom and said:
"Envoy, please wait a moment, my guards will bring you the horse shortly."
The envoy of the Great Britain also nodded, and then said:
"Okay."
After a while, the guards of the Golden Phoenix Kingdom led the horses of the envoy of the Great Britain Kingdom and came to the envoy of the Great Britain Kingdom.
Seeing this, the envoy of the Great Britain Kingdom also stepped forward, took the horse rope from the hand of the guard of the Golden Phoenix Kingdom, and then said to the leader of the soldiers of the Golden Phoenix Kingdom:
"Thank you for the leader, this official will go back to the Great Britain Kingdom."
The leader of the guards of the Golden Phoenix Kingdom also hugged his fists:
"The envoy is polite, I will not send it far away."
The envoy of the Great Britain also nodded, and then quickly mounted the horse, and then began to drive away on horseback.
In this way, the envoy of the Great Britain Kingdom also rode quickly in the direction of the Great Britain Kingdom.
Qin Meiniang also immediately summoned an official from the court to her bedroom.
An official from the Jinfeng Kingdom Dynasty also came to Qin Meiniang's bedroom quickly.
After coming to Qin Meiniang's dormitory, the officials of the Jinfeng Kingdom also stepped forward to pay homage with their fists and said:
"See the Emperor."
Qin Meiniang also stretched out her hand to signal that the officials in the Jinfeng Kingdom were flattened.
The official of the Golden Phoenix Kingdom also straightened his waist, and asked Qin Meiniang with a fist:
"I don't know what the emperor is so anxious to summon the lower officials?"
Qin Meiniang also immediately said:
"I summoned you to tell you something, and I hope you and I will discuss it well."
The official of the Jin Feng Kingdom also nodded and said:
"Please tell the emperor clearly, the lower officials will definitely give advice to the emperor, this is the duty of the lower officials."
Qin Meiniang also said it immediately, saying:
"That's right, today the Great Britain sent an envoy, this messenger came with a letter from the emperor of the Great Britain asking for peace, the Great Britain suddenly wants to ask for peace with our Jinfeng Kingdom, do you think the Great Britain Kingdom is really asking for peace, or is it a fake request for peace? Tell me what you think about it. ”
The official of the Jin Feng Kingdom was also stunned, with a somewhat surprised expression, and hugged his fists:
"Ahh The Great Britain Kingdom suddenly sent an envoy, and he also brought a letter from the emperor of the Great Britain Kingdom to ask for peace, which was to ask for peace with our Jinfeng Kingdom! ”
Qin Meiniang nodded and said seriously:
"Yes, the envoy of the Great Britain Kingdom has just left, and I have summoned him."
The official of the Jin Feng Kingdom also choked up, and then said:
"Since the envoy of the Great Britain Kingdom has brought a letter of peace from the emperor of the Great Britain Kingdom, the lower official believes that the Great Britain Kingdom is very likely to sincerely ask for peace with our Jinfeng Kingdom, after all, our Jinfeng Kingdom has also defeated them one after another in the war with the Great Britain Kingdom in recent days, at this time, the Emperor of the Great Britain Kingdom suddenly wrote a personal letter, and then sent an envoy to the Golden Phoenix Kingdom to seek peace, which is reasonable, and it is also a move of the Great Britain Kingdom to take the initiative to show weakness! It proves that the Great Britain Kingdom is now unwilling and unable to continue to fight with our Golden Phoenix Kingdom like this, after all, this long-term war will consume a lot of troops and materials. ”
After listening to the words of this official from the DPRK and China, Qin Meiniang suddenly opened her mouth, and she couldn't help but say:
"That's right! I didn't think of it! The Great Britain Kingdom suddenly sent an envoy to sue for peace, and the emperor of the Great Britain Kingdom also wrote a letter asking for peace, which can only prove that the Great Britain Kingdom now feels the pressure of our Golden Phoenix Kingdom, and it is also a manifestation of taking the initiative to show weakness, don't continue to fight with our Golden Phoenix Kingdom! This is a good thing for us in Jinfengguo! ”
When the official of the Golden Phoenix Kingdom heard Qin Meiniang say these words, he also echoed:
"What the emperor said is, however, the lower officials believe that if the conditions given by the Great Britain Kingdom are suitable for our Golden Phoenix Kingdom, our Golden Phoenix Kingdom can accept the peace proposed by the Great Britain Kingdom, after all, even if we continue to fight with the Great Britain Kingdom, the Great Britain Kingdom will be defeated in the end, and our Golden Phoenix Kingdom will also recapture the city we lost, but for our Golden Phoenix Kingdom, there will still be casualties and material losses! I don't know how the emperor feels. ”
Qin Meiniang was stunned, and said with a serious face:
"What you said is right, the Great Britain Kingdom has indeed offered us very good conditions for the Golden Phoenix Kingdom."
The official of the DPRK and China of the Golden Phoenix Kingdom also clenched his fists and asked:
"Oh! I don't know what good peace conditions the Great Britain Kingdom has offered to our Jinfeng Kingdom? ”
Qin Meiniang also spoke slowly:
"The promise made by the Emperor of Great Britain in his letter to me asking for peace is that as long as our Golden Phoenix Kingdom accepts the peace request of Great Britain Kingdom, he will return all the cities of our Golden Phoenix Kingdom that he occupied to our Golden Phoenix Kingdom within half a month, withdraw all troops back to Great Britain Kingdom, and compensate us Golden Phoenix Kingdom with another 1,000 taels of gold as compensation."
After listening to Qin Meiniang's words about the conditions set forth in the letter from the emperor of the Great Britain Kingdom, he couldn't help but say excitedly:
"Your Majesty, the conditions set forth by the Great Britain Kingdom are very good, and the Emperor can consider accepting the matter of the Great Britain Kingdom seeking peace."
Qin Meiniang also couldn't help but sneer and said:
"If this Great Britain Kingdom really wants to make peace with our Golden Phoenix Kingdom, then this condition is indeed good, and I am indeed acceptable, in this way, our Golden Phoenix Kingdom can restore peace to the world as soon as possible, but if the Great Britain Kingdom is pretending to seek peace, then it may cause some unfavorable situation for our Golden Phoenix Kingdom!"
After listening to Qin Meiniang's worries and concerns, this official of the Golden Phoenix Kingdom also pondered for a moment, and then said:
"Your Majesty, the lower officials think that now our Jinfeng Kingdom has strengthened a lot through the recruitment of troops in the country, and the power of our Jinfeng Kingdom has also increased a lot, and the wars ahead have also won battles one after another, even if this time the Great Britain Kingdom's peace is false, then the lower officials also believe that this Great Britain Kingdom will not be able to make much waves, after all, if the Great Britain Kingdom really has enough strength to fight with our Golden Phoenix Kingdom, then it will not be easy to send envoys to our Golden Phoenix Kingdom to sue for peace."
Qin Meiniang heard the officials of the Jinfeng Kingdom court say this, she also thought it was reasonable, and said:
"Well, what you said is also very reasonable, but I'm not afraid that this Great Britain Kingdom will really play any tricks behind it, just because, the last time the Great Britain Kingdom sent people to sneak into the city in front of me to poison it, I still have some scruples in my heart now, in case, if this Great Britain Kingdom really jumps over the wall in a hurry, it will also cause unimaginable trouble to our Golden Phoenix Kingdom."
The officials of the Jinfeng Kingdom also insisted on their own views, believing that the conditions and motives for seeking peace in the Great Britain Kingdom were acceptable, and this was very favorable to the Jinfeng Kingdom.
The official of the DPRK and China of the Golden Phoenix Kingdom also said seriously:
"Your Majesty, the lower officials still insist that it will be more beneficial for us to accept the peace of the Great Britain Kingdom, and please think twice before acting! If our Jin Feng Kingdom does not accept it, then it is bound to continue to fight with the Great Britain Kingdom, so that even if our Jin Feng Kingdom wins the war in the end, it will also suffer heavy losses, after all, the Great Britain Kingdom is now taking the initiative to seek peace and compromise, which can be regarded as a discovery of conscience, regret not being the original performance! ”
After Qin Meiniang heard this, she also suddenly felt a contradiction in her heart, although accepting the peace of the Great Britain Kingdom, in a short period of time, it would be more beneficial to the Golden Phoenix Kingdom, but if the Great Britain Kingdom was a false peace, it would still be unfavorable to the Golden Phoenix Kingdom.
After thinking about it, Qin Meiniang also secretly decided, so she took a gamble first, and sent the envoy of Jinfeng Kingdom to the Great Britain Kingdom first, and agreed to the request for peace with the Great Britain Kingdom, and tried to see if the Great Britain Kingdom really wanted to ask for peace sincerely.
Qin Meiniang was also stunned, let out a sigh of relief, and said slowly:
"Okay, then I will send an envoy to the Great Britain Kingdom as soon as possible according to what you said, if the Great Britain Kingdom really wants to ask for peace, then they will withdraw all the soldiers and horses from my Golden Phoenix Kingdom as soon as possible, and return all the cities of our Golden Phoenix Kingdom to our Golden Phoenix Kingdom, and will also send someone to send a thousand taels of gold compensation, if this Great Britain Kingdom is sincerely seeking peace, then I will take a step back and not entangle with the Great Britain Kingdom a lot, if this Great Britain Kingdom wants to play any tricks, then I will also be unkind to the Great Britain Kingdom."
When the official of the Jinfeng Kingdom heard Qin Meiniang say that he would send an envoy to the Great Britain Kingdom and accept the peace request of the Great Britain Kingdom, he also clenched his fists and said:
"The emperor is wise."
