Chapter 632: The Choice Between War and Peace
"You're a big-headed ghost." Besides, he hated and scolded in his heart.
To tell the truth, he really doesn't hate the Jade Princess, if there is really a need, marrying the Jade Princess can eliminate the war in the mainland and outside the Saiwai, not to mention the Jade Princess, even if he marries the princesses of all ethnic groups, he will let it go, anyway, one is to marry, two is to marry, ten or eight are the same, it's a big deal to marry back and put it as a vase.
But this kind of thing is not something he can decide, if he marries a Han person, as long as you are willing to do so, he can negotiate the marriage by himself, because this has nothing to do with the court, but when it comes to foreign races, she is still a princess, so she has to discuss the emperor with the court. Even if the court agrees to him marrying a foreign princess, he still has to go through a series of diplomatic negotiations, sign some memo documents, and then discuss what ceremony to use to marry and so on.
"I think this is what makes it, let's congratulate His Royal Highness Qincha and Xiaoyu girl, whether her father agrees or not, anyway, I agree. Let's take advantage of this heat, let's go and drink a few glasses of wedding wine first. King Tushun stroked his palms and laughed.
Everyone laughed, although King Shun is also a famous king, and his identity is not much different from that of Wara Khan, but after all, he is not the father of the Jade Princess, what do you agree to do.
However, when it comes to begging for wine, everyone agrees, and everyone knows that although the Han people are fighting wars, the wine they make can indeed make people's tongues hungry.
The princesses, princes, and captains of all tribes followed into the camp, and the previous saint and several elders actually came uninvited, and they didn't even see each other.
In the blink of an eye, the tense atmosphere just now has turned into a ball of harmony, which shows that marriage is indeed a symbol of peace and beauty.
Besides, he doesn't particularly hold a grudge against the previous saintess, as the commander of the Jinyi Guard, he is the sworn enemy of the White Lotus Sect, as long as there is an opportunity, it is normal for the previous saint to kill him. He is the same, if he encounters a good opportunity to kill the previous saintess with one blow, he will not let it go.
The two pillars of the White Lotus Sect are the sect leader and the saintess, although this saintess has abdicated, but everyone still regards her as a real saintess, the current saintess has not grown up after all, and is still constantly cultivating and tempering, if you want to gain the respect of the people and treat her like a master, I am afraid that it will not work for ten or twenty years.
During this period, many of the saint's responsibilities were still in the hands of the Supreme Virgin.
In fact, the White Lotus Sect now has two holy women, one is a positive saint and the other is a deputy saint.
Jiu Niang couldn't help but want to say something, but she quickly stopped it with her eyes, but Murong Yanran pretended not to see it.
Ji Chang originally wanted to stop it, but seeing that he was calm and calm, he didn't do anything.
When King Tushun and others saw this scene, they couldn't help but sigh and admire their open-mindedness. The previous saint was sharp and used all kinds of means, and she didn't care at all, she didn't hold grudges, and none of them could be so calm.
"Hey, did you really invite me in?" The previous saints felt strange.
"I didn't invite it, but if Her Highness the Holy Maiden is willing to come, I don't object to it, let's discuss how to eliminate the catastrophe, and the more strength you have, the more you can be sure." Besides, he said calmly.
"Yes, His Highness Qincha is so right, let's work together like a family." The Jade Princess said.
"All kinds of grievances between the various ethnic groups on the grassland, between us and the Han people, including between the Holy Sect and the imperial court, should be put aside, and we should concentrate on studying how to eliminate this unprecedented catastrophe, otherwise, in the end, before we can fight a victory, we may all die in this catastrophe, what is the point of our struggle." Tushun royal road.
"Well, I also agree with Uncle Wang's words, as long as the White Lotus Sect no longer provokes us, we are willing to put aside this hatred for the time being." Sa Thorn said.
"You're wrong, our Holy Sect has never done anything unseemly, and you just splashed dirty water on our heads." The incumbent saint sneered.
"If you want to say that, let's talk about it." Anger flared up on Ssa's face again.
"Hey, hey, what's going on, haven't you already said it, stop fighting over these flies and dogs, and quickly concentrate on eliminating the calamity." King Tushun hurriedly explained.
"Uncle Wang, my brother was killed, this is not a matter of flies and dogs." Spur didn't want to hear it.
"Okay, I'm wrong, but that's not as important as this catastrophe, if you don't get rid of the demons, the entire grassland will be doomed, including you and me, which thing do you think is more important?"
Hearing King Tushun say this, Sa's face turned red, but he had nothing to say. However, he insisted that the Holy Maiden of the White Lotus Sect was the murderer of his younger brother Yu Du, at least directly related to her, this was a hatred that was not shared, it was just a matter of time or time, and it was impossible not to count.
Everyone came to the big tent of the Chinese army, and asked the guards to bring dozens of jars of wine, although there were also girls among the guests, they were all bold characters, and they drank more wine than Han men, so they didn't let people serve tea.
However, there was a difference, the men drank in large bowls, and the princesses and their maids were embarrassed to use large bowls, but used slightly smaller glasses. The wine glass is actually not small, it is larger than the bowl of the Han people to eat at home, and the so-called big bowl is actually a large sea bowl.
Every table came up with some preserved fruits, dried meat and other foods, no one shouted for meat, since drinking, it was a bit of a drink, dry drink is the most refreshing, the most pleasant.
The previous saintess was no exception, holding a small bowl and slowly tasting the wine, and the elders all picked up the big bowl, and the scene was in full swing.
Several elders drank and their eyes moistened, thinking that in the Central Plains back then, this wine was the water they usually drank, but now it is difficult to drink it once.
Although Datong is not far away, they are all on the wanted list of the imperial court, as long as they are recognized by the official government, it is difficult to escape the arrest of the government, and the local government has also hired some masters to be the head of the arrest and give heavy rewards.
The White Lotus Sect has a secret base in Datong, and the helmsman was killed by someone besides last time, which can be regarded as an account. Counting the fact that there are many masters who have died in their hands, most of the important losses of the White Lotus Sect in recent years are related to the situation, so it is no wonder that the Holy Maiden can't help but want to kill him as long as she has the opportunity.
"According to me, we should set up a charter today, from today onwards, we will stop the civil war between our various clans, stop the internal friction, the spearhead is the same, and the power will be used in one place, that is, how to eliminate the catastrophe and get rid of the demons." King Tushun raised his bowl and gestured.
"I'm for it." Besides, immediately raise your hand to make a statement.
Everyone laughed, what they said was that the various ethnic groups in the grassland had a Mao relationship with your Han people.
Moreover, he continued: "In fact, the world is a family, why bother to divide the inside and outside, and why bother to fight around all day long, it's not good to hunt with this spirit, at least no one will die." According to me, today we will make a covenant that as long as the catastrophe is not eliminated and the demons are still doing evil, not only will the war stop between the various races outside the country, but also the war should stop inside and outside the country. This catastrophe is not only a matter outside the fortress, but also related to the life and death of tens of millions of living beings in the Guan. ”
King Tushun muttered: "Well, I agree with this, although I have no right to promise His Highness Qincha anything, but I will fight for it from the Khan." ”
The seventh princess said: "For the time being, there is no problem with our clan for a truce." ”
The Jade Princess also said; "Our clan agrees, and my father Khan is willing to live in peace with the imperial court."
Hassan smiled bitterly: "Your Highness Qincha, your character and morality are not said, and the general admires it very much, but you also know where the contradiction between us and the imperial court is, as long as the imperial court is willing to supply us with the necessary materials, and then allow mutual markets, and restore the tributary system, no one wants to fight with the imperial court." ”
"That's right, every time there is a war, there are more good men who die inside and outside the Great Wall than ants who are trampled to death, and it hurts to think about it." King Tushun said with a bitter face.
His younger brother, who was also a famous king, died in the last attack on the Great Wall, and his body was trampled by the people behind him.
"I can make certain concessions on the supply of materials to the imperial court, but all parties must also show greater sincerity, if the imperial court is asked to agree to all your conditions, then you should also agree to all the conditions of the imperial court." Besides, calmly said.
Besides, unlike these people sitting here, although these people are also in high positions, they are not the ones who can make the final decision, and they are the ambassadors with full powers to negotiate, as long as he signs and seals, it is the final decision of the imperial court.
When King Tushun heard the meaning of his words, he sighed in his heart, he didn't know how many years the imperial court and the king of Alta had not been able to reach a peace agreement, mainly because of the stalemate on how to deal with the White Lotus Sect.
The imperial court demanded that the king of Altan hand over the heads of Zhao Quan and others, and demanded that the White Lotus Sect be expelled from the grassland, which the king of Altan could not do anyway.
The king also put forward some conditions that the court could not agree, such as an unlimited supply of all kinds of iron tools needed by the steppe, not only iron pots and farm tools, but also other iron tools, but he did not directly ask to sell them weapons.
"I mean, putting aside the process and outcome of the negotiations, we should first decide whether to make peace or war? Isn't the cloud over us brewing enough to be more important than what we're fighting for? And he continued.
"Putting aside negotiations and talking about cooperation, that's what His Highness Qincha meant, right?" King Tushun asked.
"Yes, cooperation is to deal with this catastrophe, not for anything else, and the negotiation is for the sake of our two sides to communicate with each other and improve the living standards and material conditions of the people on all sides, which are inherently unrelated."
Hassan said with a smile: "Your Highness Qincha, the issue you said is too big, it is useless for us to agree or disagree, we have to make a decision from the khans of various clans, you should find a chance to talk to them about this issue in Bansheng City." ”
Besides, he said: "That's not the case, all of you here are the elites of all races, if you want to start a war, it depends on you, if you are all in favor of peace, this war will not be fought." ”
Moreover, he did not hesitate to spend time with these people, just to persuade them to favor peace, these people are high and powerful in their respective clans, and their influence is huge, if they are all in favor of peace, the khans of all clans will not be able to wage war.
