After sending away the Tusi envoy, Chen Guang glanced at the ministers in the hall and said:

"You have all heard the words of the Tusi envoy just now, now let's talk about whether our country will agree to the request and conditions put forward by Tusi."

As soon as he finished speaking, Ding Rui, the left prime minister of the Wind Country, stood up from the train and said:

"The king, there are foreign envoys here, there are some things that the minister does not say much, and now, the minister suggests that the king accept Tusi's peace conditions."

As soon as Ding Rui's words fell, another minister immediately stood up and said: "The minister seconded the proposal, in addition, Weichen thinks that the life and death of a person is not worth mentioning at all in front of the interests of the whole country, and the peace between the two countries is a war and a major event, so the overall situation should be more important." ”

"That's right, the king, the scourge of the barbarian soldiers has been a long time, although it does not hurt my gale country, but it is particularly annoying, and the people of the border cities of my wind country have suffered for a long time, and now, since the two countries can avoid the scourge of war, our country should do its best to promote it, how can such a major event be put aside because of the life and death of a small general......"

"The minister also seconded the proposal." Another minister stood up and said: "Lu Chen, the general of Wuguan, is no more than a county guard, and his position is no more than seven grades, and his duty is to guard the border city and resist the barbarian enemy, and now, giving up his life can keep me peaceful in the north of the wind, and it can be said that he has died as he de......serves."

"The minister seconded the ......"

"The minister also seconded the ......"

Immediately afterwards, several more ministers came out of the ranks, and soon, the center of the main hall was full of officials at all levels of the Wind Country, and the opinions expressed by people were almost unanimous, all of them believed that they should accept Tusi's conditions, and Lu Chen was a border city and county guard, and his status was low, and no one cared about his life or death at all.

Looking at the ministers of the Wind Country standing in a pile below, Chen Guang sighed lightly, he was just about to open his mouth to agree, but at this time, at the front of the train on the right side of the minister, there was a sudden voice of opposition:

"Minister, Xu Jingzhi, suggest that my king cut off the ears and nose of the Tusi envoy! Chase it back! ”

"What did you say?" When Chen Guang heard this, he looked at Xu Jingzhi with incredible eyes, he simply wondered if there was something wrong with his ears, the current situation of the Wind Country, and making peace with Tusi was undoubtedly extremely beneficial to himself, even if Xu Jingzhi disagreed, he actually had to cut off the ear and nose of the messenger, wouldn't this be humiliating Tusi! When his envoys return home, Tus must not attack in a big way?

However, seeing that Chen Guang asked again uncertainly, Xu Jingzhi repeated with a calm expression: "The minister suggests that the ears and noses of the Tusi envoy be cut off and expelled from the Wind Country!" ”

At this moment, not only the Wind King Chen Guang was dumbfounded, but all the ministers in the palace were also dumbfounded, and people looked at Xu Jingzhi with eyes like a neuropathy......

Without waiting for others to say anything, Ding Rui was the first to react, and immediately scolded Xu Jingzhi angrily:

"Lord Xu! Do you know what you're talking about? ”

"Don't work to remind the left minister, of course this official knows what he is talking about." Xu Jingzhi calmly replied.

"Humph! Does Lord Xu think that a small border city guard is more important than the peace between the two countries!? ”

"Does Lord Ding think that just because of a barbarian word, he should kill the heroes at will!?"

"You! As an important minister of the society, you should focus on the overall situation! Share worries for the country and the king! And not to bewitch the people and bewitch the king here! Ding Rui said angrily.

"Shut up! Servant thief! Incite the king, kill me Dafeng Zhongliang! What is the intention!? ”

"You! You're the Minister! You're the traitor! ”

The two of them, one is the left minister and the other is the right minister, both of whom are members of the first rank of the DPRK and the Central People's Republic of China.

Seeing that the two of them still had the momentum to continue arguing, Chen Guang couldn't help it anymore, slapped the Wang case in front of him fiercely, stood up and shouted irritably: "Enough!" ”

The Wind King was angry, even if the ministers fought again, they had to shut up obediently, Ding Rui and Xu Jingzhi, the two prime ministers, also bowed their heads and didn't dare to say a word.

The hall was quiet in an instant, and seeing this, Chen Guang stretched out his hand and pointed at Xu Jingzhi, frowned and said, "Lord Xu!" Just now, all the ministers persuaded the king to accept Tus's conditions, but you are the only one, but you suggest that the king cut off the ear and nose of the messenger! Now, this king will listen to your reasons! If you have no purpose, this king will punish you. ”

"Minister, obey the king's orders."

Xu Jingzhi first saluted Chen Guang, and then said:

"Today, Tusi dares to threaten our country and kill his loyal ministers with the matter of peace, so tomorrow, if Tusi uses this as a threat to kill other ministers of our country, dare to ask my king, do you want to kill again?"

When Chen Guang heard this, he couldn't help but gasp, he didn't answer Xu Jingzhi's words, but sat back on the royal chair, and his face also showed a contemplative look.

Seeing this, Xu Jingzhi said: "The king has always been a saint, and what Wei Chen said just now, I believe that the king has a plan in his heart, and this is only one of them. ”

"Go on."

"Yes." Xu Jingzhi continued: "I don't know if the king still remembers that a month ago, Tusi gathered an army of 50,000 to invade our land, but was defeated miserably, so that the whole army was annihilated. ”

"Of course the king remembers."

Seeing Chen Guang's impatient look, Xu Jingzhi hurriedly said: "And this is exactly what happened after Lu Chen took office, before that, the Wuguan defenders lost nine out of ten battles against the barbarians, but since Lu Chen arrived, have you ever heard of barbarians entering the wind and plundering the land?" ”

"King! Lu Chen was ordered to garrison Wuguan and do his duty! Fight the brutes! Make it impossible to make an inch! Such a meritorious hero, the king not only did not reward him, but because of the words of the barbarian, he wanted to kill him. ”

"Besides, why had the barbarians never mentioned peace before? That's because at that time, they were able to enter the windy land to plunder at will! However, now, Wuguan is impregnable, and the barbarians are invincible, so they have no choice but to do so! All of this is thanks to King Lu Chen! ”

"However, at this time, there are a bunch of mediocre ministers and thieves, bewitching the king! If the king listens to such slander and kills Lu Chen, it will be too late to regret it! At that time, Wuguan will return to its former appearance, and barbarians will be able to enter our country at will! If so, will they continue to keep the peace!? Isn't the king cutting off his arm!? ”

Xu Jingzhi talked eloquently, and said all his opinions in one breath, Chen Guang listened to it, like a slap in the head, and was shocked into a cold sweat.

He swallowed hard, and said fearfully, "If not...... If it weren't for Aiqing's timely reminder, this king would really be so confused! ”

Hearing this, Xu Jingzhi's heart finally fell back when he mentioned his throat, and he immediately suggested to Chen Guang:

"King, at this time, I should urgently summon Lu Chen to return to the capital, and grant him a favor to reassure him, so that it will be an insurmountable barrier in my Gale Northland......"
