Seeing that Baili Wuji was silent, his mother Zhao persuaded him: "King Chu, although His Majesty has descended the Zhou Kingdom, but Shu is still Shu, and the second generation and foundation of His Majesty are still there. ”

"The king, what the mother said is not appropriate, hundreds of thousands of Shu troops have been defeated repeatedly, and they were destroyed by the Zhou army in the middle of February, if the king pins his hopes on the Shu army, it is undoubtedly a fool's dream." Xu Shiming hit the nail on the head and mercilessly pointed out the loopholes in the persuasion of his mother's descendants.

"King Rong Yu of Chu, the Shu army is by no means unable to fight, but no one can lead the army to fight, His Majesty misheard the rumors, and transferred Han Jixun to Qianzhou as the envoy of Wutai Jiedu to prepare for ...... Belch. Han Baozheng was so eager that he almost missed his mouth.

Sun Guangxian said: "The king, the minister thought that the Shu Kingdom was destroyed, precisely because His Majesty was first obsessed with the palace, did not want to forge ahead, misused the traitorous villain, and then took the initiative to surrender. It's just a waste of the lives of the soldiers of the Chu army. ”

Sun Guangxian's words aroused the indignation of the officials of Shu State. But what Sun Guangxian said was the truth, but he didn't say anything to refute it, and they all looked at each other angrily, but Sun Guangxian didn't blink, looking like he was the master of my territory.

At this time, a clear voice came from among the officials of Shu State, "The flag is lowered on the tree in the king's city, and the concubine knows it in the deep palace; 140,000 people were disarmed, and not a single man was a man. ”

Everyone present looked forward to it, and Baili Wuji was even more heartbeat.

At this time, the officials of Shu State automatically gave way to a passage, and they looked at it for hundreds of miles, although they were already dressed in men's clothes. But after all, the "Lady of Flowers", who couldn't hide the appearance of the city, was walking forward from behind the crowd.

Baili Wuji hurriedly got up, led Xu Shiming and others to bow forward and said, "The ministers will meet the imperial concubine." ”

"King Chu is exempt. This palace is already a person in distress, and it deserves such a great gift from the king of Chu. Madame Blossom said lightly.

Baili Wuji didn't dare to raise his eyes. He knew how powerful this woman was.

"The imperial concubine forgives the sin, not that the minister is unwilling to save the driver, but that it is too late at this time."

"There is another personal decree from His Majesty in this palace, which must be conveyed to the King of Chu."

"Listen to me."

"Your Majesty issued an edict that if the king of Chu can rescue me, I will give up the throne of the emperor of Shu to the king of Chu."

As soon as this remark came out, everyone was shocked. Instantly, there was a whisper.

Hundreds of miles without a trace of emotion, the emperor? It's just a false name. To be called the emperor, this king coerced Chu, Southern Han, Southern Tang, and Nanping. He has long been called the emperor, why should he be in Shu, no, it is now the land of Zhou. Meng Chang is Meng Chang after all. I still can't see through this illusory throne. What's more, Meng Chang's seal has already been obtained by Guo Wei with him. What's the use of an empty promise? In the end, you still need strength to speak.

Baili Wuji said solemnly: "The minister is frightened, and he does not dare to lead His Majesty to give this message." ”

"The king of Chu can rest assured, there are a total of nine seals under His Majesty, and only eight of them fell into the hands of the Zhou army.

Madame Blossom took out a yellow silk wrap from her bag.

After opening, a jade seal was impressive.

Madame Blossom asked Baili Wuji to get the secret decree. Comparisons were made, and officials from Shu and Chu inspected at the same time.

Long. Everyone nodded their heads to indicate that there was no mistake.

Baili Wuji looked at the jade seal that was placed in front of him by Mrs. Hua Rui, and twitched the corners of his mouth slightly.

Holding the jade seal in both hands, he presented it to Mrs. Hua Rui, and said, "The minister does not dare to take this jade seal, and asks the imperial concubine to take it back." ”

Mrs. Hua Rui was shocked, this jade seal represents a country, and people are salivating. Although Shu was destroyed, the officials of Shu are still there, the people of Shu are still there, the land of Shu is still there, and even more, the army scattered all over Shu is still there. And now, being abandoned by Baili is like a cheat.

"King Chu doesn't believe that the jade seal is true?"

"The imperial concubine misunderstood the minister, and the minister dared to doubt the imperial concubine?"

"Then why is the King of Chu unwilling to receive this jade seal?"

Baili Wuji said freely: "The imperial concubine doesn't know, this jade seal is too heavy, and I ask the imperial concubine to forgive the ministers who can't afford it." ”

As soon as these words came out, the officials of Shu were in an uproar, did the king of Chu want to see death or not?

Madame Hua Rui asked, "Is the King of Chu afraid of the Zhou State?" Or are you afraid that the officials of Shu will not obey the order? ”

Baili Wuji replied: "No, the minister is afraid that it will cost the lives of the soldiers of the Chu army in vain, but it will cheapen the Northern Han and Liao people." ”

Madame Hua Rui asked, "What does the King of Chu mean by this?" ”

Baili Wuji turned his face and said to the officials of Shu State: "This king led the Chu State, and after destroying the Southern Han Dynasty and the Southern Tang Dynasty, he worked hard for several years before he integrated the three places. Now even if this king recovers Shu, how many years will it take to integrate Chu and Shu? You have all been officials for many years, so you should know this. If at this time, this king wants to govern the country on the one hand, and fight against the Zhou State on the other, you think, what is the chance of winning? ”

The officials of Shu who were present naturally understood this truth, governing the country, this is not 1 + 1 = 2, but 1 + 1 = 1 or even 1 + 1 is less than 1. Occupy another country, unless it is plundering, or within a few years, you will spend far more energy and money than you have gained, and even dilute your existing strength.

Mrs. Hua Rui also understood, this Baili Wuji didn't want to rescue Meng Chang in his heart, even if this was using the rivers and mountains of Shu as bait, he would not be tempted.

Mrs. Hua Rui still wanted to work hard, and said: "King Chu, there is only one request from this palace, that is, to save His Majesty, please remember the King of Chu and his relatives under His Majesty, and make it difficult." ”

This is not profitable, playing the emotional card, speaking of which, Meng Chang is still the brother-in-law of Baili Wuji.

This made Baili Wuji speechless, seeing that Baili Wuji did not speak, a glimmer of hope began to rise in the hearts of the officials of Shu State, indeed, these officials are different from Mrs. Hua Rui, they no longer care whether Meng Chang will come back, who will be the emperor of Shu State, they only hope that Baili Wuji will recover Shu, because in Shu State, they have too many interests, without Shu State, they are nothing, even if Baili Wuji can think of the same Shu ministers, arrange them to be an official and a half-post, then how can they be so comfortable and comfortable in Shu?

So they said that as long as Baili Wuji could send troops to recover the lost territory, they would return to Shu to contact the military generals of various places to cooperate.

Mu Zhaoyi even said: "The minister is in Qianzhou, and he has told Han Jixun, the envoy of Wutai Jiedu, the envoy of His Majesty's will, and Han Jieshuai made it clear that as long as the king of Chu can go west to recover Shu, he is willing to fall under the command of the king of Chu and obey his orders." ”

Han Jixun, Baili Wuji is deeply impressed, this person led the army and Baili Wuji had a bloody battle in Zhongxian County, and he is also a person valued by Baili Wuji, with his help, things may be possible. (To be continued......)
