Text Section 418 Join forces again

In the main hall of the Moro Palace, everyone who had never seen Zhang Ruming was taken aback by his appearance. If it weren't for the bright red Heavenly Master robe, it would have been a reappearance of the prince. Don't look at Zhang Ruming, he has been in Yaks City for more than two days, but he has been in and out by car, and there are few people who have really seen Zhang Ruming. What's more, judging the royal family itself is a taboo, no one dares to talk nonsense everywhere no matter how similar they look.

Wupol Khan originally wanted to show the prestige of the Moro Empire, but he was slightly distracted by Zhang Ruming. Taifu Xiao Zhicheng hurriedly stepped forward and knelt on the ground.

"Minister, Xiao Zhicheng knocks to see His Majesty the Emperor, long live long live long live."

Zhang Ruming also arched his hand unhurriedly, "The messenger of the gods of the Great Calendar Kingdom, holding the scepter of all people to inspect the heavens, the supreme heavenly master of the mighty Zhenguo Shangguan Xuanwu, has seen His Majesty Wupol Khan. ”

Zhang Ruming said that his title is still a little less, and it seems that he has to think about a few domineering titles for himself when he goes back. Seeing Vupor Khan 'get up to greet him', Zhang Ruming was very satisfied.

Taifu Xiao Zhicheng saw that Wu Pol Khan didn't react, coughed embarrassedly, and said again, "Minister~ Xiao Zhicheng knocked to see Your Majesty, may my emperor live long live!" ”

"Uh~!" Vupor Khan reacted at this time, and quickly stabilized his mind and sat down again.

"Aiqing is flat, Shangguan Tianshi has come from afar, and he has worked hard. Come on, give the Shangguan envoy a seat! ”

Wupol Khan looked at Zhang Ruming with a trace of sad memory in his eyes. But on closer inspection, it is still different from his royal son. Now Shangguan Xuanwu is the envoy of the Great Calendar Kingdom, and his status is equal to that of the emperor, and Wupol Khan also has to take a high look. Originally, he also wanted Zhang Ruming to see the majesty of Moro, but after seeing Zhang Ruming's appearance, Wupol Khan also lost this thought.

Zhang Ruming sat down at the head of the imperial case, and Wupol Khan looked at his ministers and said, "Ladies and gentlemen, since the end of summer, the soldiers and horses of the Northern Ming Dynasty have suddenly invaded our territory. Under the swords and soldiers of both sides, the people of Li suffered, and now the Emperor Jishan of the Great Calendar Kingdom has written to me, willing to mediate the dispute between the two countries. Although I, Moro, am not afraid of the powerful enemies of the world, I do not want to see the people displaced by the war. Today, the official heavenly master of the Great Calendar Kingdom came to my Yakesi City, and the status of the official heavenly master is enough to show the sincerity of mediation. If this catastrophe of swords and soldiers can be quelled, this is the blessing of the people, and I am very pleased. ”

Vupor Khan played an official tone, although all the civil and military officials knew that Duan Lang was fighting with their soldiers and horses in Mamaiya City, but Vupor Khan did not mention a word, only emphasized the invasion of the Northern Ming. Vupor Khan was anxious to end the war, and on the surface he had to give face to the country.

Zhang Ruming nodded slightly, looking at Wupol Khan with a teachable expression. Zhang Ruming is also a donkey temper, if Wupol Khan really gives him a dismount, maybe Zhang Ruming accidentally spits out an ivory from his mouth, which can make the entire court blow up the nest. Since the other party has given face, Zhang Ruming also has to do a superficial article.

Zhang Ruming stood up and said, "This Heavenly Master adheres to the decree of the gods and does good deeds to educate sentient beings. Nowadays, from the courtiers to the Li people, under the kind education of the Heavenly Master, everyone is living a happy and beautiful life. Knowing that there was a war between Moro and Beiming, and more than 100,000 soldiers spilled their blood on the battlefield, this heavenly master was even more heartbroken and couldn't sleep all night when he heard about it. In order to quell this war, this Heavenly Master also tried his best to persuade everyone. Today, I can stand on top of the Moro Palace, thank the gods for their blessings, and hope that the Lord of the Vupor Khanate and all the lords of the Vopol Khanate will be able to end this war as soon as possible with a heart of compassion for all sentient beings. On behalf of the gods, this heavenly master blesses you~ Coax Nini Da! ”

Zhang Ruming put on a divine posture, but his words did not resonate, and the courtiers and officials even glared at him angrily. No one who can stand in the main hall is not a fool, and from the beginning of the war to the present, the army of more than 200,000 Moro has been lost. This blood debt, who doesn't know that it is the sin created by your Great Calendar Kingdom. Now this guy is shaking his head and being holy like a fairy, and many military attaches can't wait to come up and shave his ears.

Taifu Xiao Zhi glanced at the colleagues in the palace out of the corner of his eyes, and said in his heart that he usually thinks that he is thick-skinned enough, but now he has seen it for a long time. If anyone is not convinced, he has the ability to stay with him for ten days, so as not to be driven crazy Lao Tzu calls you father.

Vupor Khan had calmed down from his son's hallucinations, and anger rose in his heart at the thought of Moro's loss and his son's tragic death. However, Vupor Khan knew that this was not the time to vent his anger, and the content of the peace talks could not be leaked to the courtiers for the time being.

Wupol Khan suppressed his anger and said calmly, "Shangguan Heavenly Master is merciful to the heavens, and I also hope that Your Excellency can achieve your wishes. Now that you Aiqing have learned of the good intentions of the Emperor Jishan of the Great Calendar Kingdom, Taifu Xiao Zhicheng and the two Aiqing of the Ministry of War will stay, and the others will retreat. ”

The civil and military officials shouted long live and began to retreat outside the palace. As soon as the courtiers left, in addition to Xiao Zhicheng in the court, only the Minister of War Wei Chihai and the Minister of the Ministry of Officials Helian Saxing were left. Wupol Khan asked Zhang Ruming to move to the Guanchao Hall to discuss matters, Xiao Taifu accompanied Zhang Ruming to leave from the main gate, and Wupol Khan went directly from the back hall of the main hall to the palace cabinet.

The Tide Viewing Hall is the place where Vupor Khan usually deals with the affairs of the world, except for important military events, few envoys from other countries enter here. Don't look at the fact that there is no sea in the surrounding territory of the Moro Kingdom, but the core palace cabinet has a name for watching the tide.

Zhang Ruming and others stood outside the hall waiting for Xuancheng, taking this opportunity Zhang Ruming wanted to chat more with Xiao Zhicheng. But as soon as he saw that Zhang Ruming was about to speak, Xiao Zhicheng hurriedly said.

"Shangguan Heavenly Master, this Taifu will introduce you to you, these two are the top ministers of my Moro Kingdom. This is Wei Chihai, the Minister of War, and this is Helian Saxing, the Minister of the Ministry of Officials. Two adults, Shangguan Heavenly Master is a rich five-car Bogu Tongjin, you can talk more. ”

Hearing Xiao Zhicheng's recommendation, the minister of the Ministry of Ministers, Helian Saxing, was reluctant to deal with Zhang Ruming, but politely hugged his fists, which was regarded as a greeting.

Wei Chihai, the minister of the Ministry of War, said disdainfully, "I am a rough man below, please forgive me for being lonely and unheard, when this official has heard of Emperor Duan Lang of Jishan, and I have also heard of Emperor Tai Mingyue of the Great Calendar Kingdom." As for this Shangguan Heavenly Master, who is rich in five cars, I really haven't heard of it below. ”

When Zhang Ruming heard this, he straightened his chest indifferently, "This adult has never heard of this Heavenly Master, which is right, because this Heavenly Master is low-key, and he has always smiled slightly at the word fame and fortune." In fact, in the Great Calendar, Duan Lang and Mingyue have to ask this Heavenly Master for advice on many things. Of course, this Heavenly Master is usually silent in cultivating the mind, and he only reminds them a few words in subtle ways. ”

Mrs. Xiao said in her heart that you can pull it down, if this thing is silent, there will be no dumb in this world.

Wei Chihai pursed his lips, "Shangguan Heavenly Master, if you want to say so, is the battle of Molan City also the result of Your Excellency's guidance?" ”

Zhang Ruming laughed twice and waved his hand, "The small scene is not worth mentioning." ”

Yu Chihai couldn't help but be angry, "Hmph! can defeat the joint attack of Mokun and Lu Mu, is this still a small scene? Lord Shangguan, although this official is a member of Moro, he also has a lot of respect for those who are good at using soldiers. However, for those who steal merit, the official feels that it is simply inferior to a pig and a dog. ”

Zhang Ruming didn't seem to hear that he was scolding him, and happily stroked his palm and praised, "Well said, General Wei Chi and this Heavenly Master are simply fellow people." This Heavenly Master has always been dismissive of utilitarianism, and glorious things will be given to others. I didn't expect to be so praised by General Wei Chi, this heavenly master is really ashamed. ”

Yu Chihai couldn't help but open his mouth in astonishment, and said in his heart that this guy would not listen to people, when did Lao Tzu praise him. Xiao Zhicheng rolled his eyes even more when he heard this, and said in his heart that a person's cheek has cultivated to such a thickness, which is really admirable. It is unreasonable that the Great Calendar Kingdom can offer such a person high above the temple.

Zhang Ruming was about to say more, when he saw a palace official walk out, "Shangguan Heavenly Master, several adults, Your Majesty has announced that you will enter the palace." ”

Xiao Zhicheng hurriedly straightened his court clothes and took the lead in walking inside. Zhang Ruming walked at the end, Xiao Zhicheng knelt down to Wupol Khan after the three entered, Zhang Ruming just bowed slightly, and stood aside.

Vupor Khan changed into loose and comfortable clothes and sat upright on top of the slump. Wupol Khan glanced at Zhang Ruming and said to the three courtiers.

"Everyone, this is not a palace, you all sit. Shangguan Heavenly Master, please! ”

Zhang Ruming was not polite, and sat on the left side of the soft collapse, but Xiao Zhicheng and the others sat on the right. Wupol Khan looked at Zhang Ruming and said, "Shangguan Heavenly Master, I have already read the conditions for peace talks in your country. Although the peace talks are beneficial to both sides, I do not see what is in the interests of my Moro in the terms of the peace talks you have listed. ”

Zhang Ruming pursed his lips, "Your Majesty Wupol Khan, there are just a few of us here, and you don't need to go around in circles." If there's anything, let's open the skylight and say something. Let's be honest, do you want peace talks? If you want to, then let's move on. If you don't have this will, then the Heavenly Master won't force it. However, this Heavenly Master first declares that I am here with sincerity, and if you don't believe it, you can ask Lao Xiao. These days, the two of us are communicating openly with each other, and he should know the faith and sincere intentions of this Celestial Master. ”

Xiao Zhi stood up angrily, and said in his heart, when the did you communicate with Lao Tzu about peace talks? You can't talk nonsense, if you don't get it, you will be tired to death.

Wupol Khan waved his hand, signaling that Xiao Zhicheng did not need to be in a hurry. Wupol Khan said, "Shangguan Heavenly Master, as the Emperor of Moro, I have always been true to my word. If I hadn't been sincere, I wouldn't have agreed to peace talks. ”

Yu Chihai couldn't help but say angrily, "My Lord Your Majesty has made peace talks twice, but you have set up an ambush to kill my Moro Sacrifice Lord, and you also brutally killed my Moro Prince. Shangguan Xuanwu, is this what you call sincerity! ”

At the mention of this, Vupor Khan couldn't help coughing slightly a few times and sighed bitterly. Especially in the face of Zhang Ruming, who was so close to the prince, it made Wupol Khan extremely sad.

Zhang Ruming's face was solemn, "Since General Wei Chi has mentioned this matter, let's not talk about peace talks for now, and make this matter clear before continuing." Your Majesty Vupor Khan, this Heavenly Master can swear to you in the name of the gods that Lord Hutu and Prince Vupattu were not killed by us at all. When the Japanese Heavenly Master personally led the army, it can be said that he witnessed everything. You were blinded by others, and you actually regarded the real murderer as a friend, which simply made Hu Tu and the prince blind to death. ”

Wupol Khan was stunned for a moment, and looked at Zhang Ruming in surprise, "You mean, you didn't kill my emperor?" ”

"Yes, it was Xiyue Lu Mu who killed Prince Wu Batu."

Wei Chihai, the minister of the Ministry of War, couldn't help but say angrily, "I, tens of thousands of soldiers in Moro, have seen it in my eyes, and I still dare to talk here. ”

Zhang Ruming's eyes widened, "Fart!" The monarchs and ministers of my Great Calendar Kingdom fought in all directions, killed Han Pingzi and destroyed Mokun, and even let Lao Tzu trample under his feet in the Great Xia Dynasty. Let's ask this world, what else is there that the monarchs and ministers of the Great Calendar Kingdom dare not admit. Lao Tzu did lead his soldiers and horses to the scene that day, but by that time Hutu and Wu Batu had already been killed. All you see is that our soldiers have just arrived. It doesn't matter if you're framed, isn't it just to continue to fight. But letting Lao Tzu carry the black pot for others is a bit aggrieved. ”

Wupol Khan's heart moved, and he looked at Zhang Ruming in shock. This matter has always been based on Long Mu's recital, and since tens of thousands of soldiers have seen it with their own eyes, Vupor Khan will certainly not doubt it. Moreover, the Ministry of War also sent people to check, and it basically became an iron case. But now, Zhang Ruming actually denied it, and said it so categorically. Besides, there is really no need for Duan Lang to deny it, no matter whether Shangguan Xuanwu admits it or denies it, this peace talks must continue. Seeing Zhang Ruming's tough attitude, Wupol Khan couldn't help but become suspicious.

Just when Zhang Ruming was negotiating peace with Wupol Khan, the lord of Moro, in the city of Mamaia, the great Tusi of Longmu hurriedly came to Lu Mu's marshal mansion. Long Mu didn't say a word, and directly handed Lu Mu a secret letter.

Lu Mu looked at Long Mu in surprise, "What, Shangguan Xuanwu went to Yaks City?" But the news is from the Ministry of War? ”

"No, it was sent by a certain tribe of the dragon with a sparrowhawk, and the news can be confirmed."

When Lu Mu heard this, he slammed the table in front of him. Of course, he could guess what Zhang Ruming was doing when he went to Yaks City, but now that he was facing a critical moment, the peace talks would be a disaster for the entire Western Vietnam. Lu Muke didn't believe that the Lord of Moro would have such a good heart and be able to think about them Xiyue.

And Long Mu is even more worried that after the peace talks, many things will be shaken out. At that time, even if there is no evidence for the investigation of the matter between Hu Tu and the crown prince, he will be held responsible for the war losses. It is even said that it is very likely that like Hu Tu last time, he needs to cooperate in killing Lu Mulai to show favor to Duan Lang. Long Mu was already tied to Lu Mu on a warship, and he didn't even want this war to end prematurely.

Lu Mu pondered for a long time, and looked at Long Mu with a cold gaze, "Lord Tusi, this matter is very important, and even related to the entire national fortune of my Xiyue. For you, as soon as the fighting stops, you are likely to face the responsibility of the lord of the Vupor Khanate. Therefore, you and I must join hands to stop this peace talk once again. ”

Long Mu shook his head bitterly, "To be honest, I also want to continue fighting." Only by taking down Duan Lang's head can I be able to offset my responsibility for the loss of soldiers and horses. But now, no one can stop the peace talks, after all, they are in the city of Yaks, not on our ground. Unless, start your troops immediately and kill Duan Lang at all costs. As long as Duan Lang dies, any peace talks will become waste paper. When he came down to find Lu Dudu, he wanted to break the cauldron and hunt down Duan Lang all the time. Only in this way, there may be a glimmer of hope. ”

Lu Mu shook his head, "This method doesn't work at the moment, even if we go all out, I'm afraid it will be difficult to trap Duan Lang." However, there is still a way to stop the peace talks. ”

Long Mu was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly asked, "What way, Lu Dudu has something to say." ”

Lu Mu stared at Long Mu and said coldly, "Use all the secrets of my Xiyue in Yaks City to join forces with your Long Mu family, and you must not let Shangguan Xuanwu leave Yaks City alive." I know the weight of Shangguan Xuanwu in the Great Calendar Kingdom, as long as he dies, Duan Lang and Tangtai Mingyue will completely cut off the road to peace talks. ”

Long Mu's heart tightened, and he looked at Lu Mu with a pale face. If this is found out, it will not be a matter of accountability, and it will even be a great crime of extermination.

Lu Mu continued, "Lord Tusi, at present, you are the only one who can use Sparrowhawk to rush back to Yaks City overnight. Therefore, it is necessary to make a decision immediately, otherwise it will be too late. The Governor of Pontus can hand over to you all the secrets of Xiyue in the city of Jax, and your family will act under your command. Don't forget that you know the true cause of Hutu and the prince's death, and if Vupor Khan finds out, it will also be a great crime to exterminate the race. Toast-sama, join forces, this is the only way out. ”

Listening to Lu Mu's threatening tone, Long Mu's body couldn't help but tremble a little. After thinking about it for a while, Long Mu gritted his teeth and decided to join forces with Lu Mu again. With no way out, they can only take risks to find a way out.
