Chapter 606: Reluctance to Meddle
But now the old King of Chu is still at the border, and in the case of victory,
The Eastern Emperor still planned to choose to do it in this way, no matter from which point of view, it was something that they couldn't understand.
Therefore, it is precisely because of this reason that these ministers will subconsciously want to decisively deny this matter.
But thinking about it again, the behavior of the Eastern Emperor now is most likely due to the fear of the Chu Palace, and he will have to solve it in his own way, rather than causing any struggle.
Therefore, after the Eastern Emperor on our side said that he wanted to marry the fourth princess far away and kiss her, so as to appease the wilderness, none of these civil and military officials objected, and no one had the intention of agreeing.
It's just that the Eastern Emperor, who has already made a decision on this in his heart, doesn't care whether these cultural relics and officials agree, and he hasn't asked the opinions of Concubine Hui and the fourth princess at all.
He directly sent an envoy to the border, and asked him to convey this matter to the side of the barbarian army, intending to make peace with them.
It's a pity that this time in this matter, the Eastern Emperor not only thinks too simply.
And it was also because he was looking forward to the Chu Wangfu over there, and forgot what kind of greedy and rude people this barbarian clan at the border was.
So even if the Eastern Emperor here is thinking about how to do it properly, no matter how good he wants to use the four princesses to make peace, and then alleviate the recovery of these two sides to the original situation.
But there is something that cannot succeed, in this kind of heart there is greed, and want more situations, as for from which point of view, this idea of the Eastern Emperor is not only too naïve.
And because of his own selfishness, he even ignored the thoughts in the hearts of the four princesses.
What you must know is that if it weren't for those people at the beginning, if it weren't for the current Eastern Emperor, it would probably be possible that they would solve the war on both sides in a way similar to sending the four princesses out to make peace.
Maybe it's because the Eastern Emperor is now old, and he is very submissive in these things, and he doesn't dare to do it too deeply.
In case it is possible, in this state of affairs, because of these actions, he can no longer continue, control the situation in the entire court, and no longer control the loyalty of these ministers.
If the second prince and Murong Shuang did not leave, and he would have decided the second prince to become the new successor to the throne and the new emperor.
Maybe this Eastern Emperor didn't care about the affairs of the Mo family at the beginning, as well as the previous time, why did he inform the world of the affairs of the Mu family.
And it is mostly impossible to give the father and son of the Chu Palace's Mansion to the people who have completely broken into the enemy's name, and it is impossible to take into account such an extent, under the situation that there has been a victory.
I would rather use the four princesses to go and make peace, than let the old Chu King over there continue to attack and bring this barbarian tribesmen to be completely repulsed.
And the situation over there was alleviated, and in addition to the situation that the old King Chu had already repelled them once, he already had some thoughts in his heart that wanted to quit.
lest this old king of Chu, who was brave and good at fighting back then, and now does not lose his original demeanor, may be defeated and retreated, and leave no room for it.
Under this kind of thinking, the barbarian king here is still thinking about it, but he doesn't want the Eastern Emperor, who is still in the capital over there, to choose a compromise in the end.
wants to exchange relatives with the four princesses, so that they can retire and regain the friendship between the two countries.
Originally, the Barbarian King, who had been taken into account, knew that the Eastern Emperor wanted to ease the war between the two countries in a lighter way, and suddenly the ambition that had been suppressed by him in the bottom of his heart surged up again.
But it's not because of other things, but the more in the current situation, it is enough to see that the barbarian king here already has other ideas in his heart.
Seeing that the Eastern Emperor would rather choose to solve it in this way, he was not willing to let the old Chu King continue to attack them.
Even if he didn't know what the situation was, he could vaguely guess it.
I'm afraid it's because the old Chu King here and the Eastern Emperor over there have some differences, and since the emperor of the Dongling Kingdom is now the Eastern Emperor, he has attacked him, and he is very powerful.
The brave and warlike old King of Chu, he doesn't have to take it to heart, after all, he is just a prince, and judging from his inquiry, this old King Chu is still a prince with a different surname.
Maybe, the current situation in the court is that the Eastern Emperor is afraid of the old King of Chu, and after such a victory, he may seek power and usurp the throne, directly enter the capital, and pull the Eastern Emperor down, so he will choose such a way.
So in the current situation, since he wants to take the situation of great disagreement between the old Chu King and the Eastern Emperor, he uses the most suitable way and the fastest time to seize the most advantageous thing from the hands of the Eastern Emperor.
Otherwise, if it goes on like this for a long time, in this matter, if the Eastern Emperor and the old King of Chu may get back together and restore the original sense of trust, or if the old King of Chu here really chooses to seek power and pull the Eastern Emperor down in the next time,
can only say that he is pushing back, the old Chu King here, becoming the new Eastern Emperor, then everything he does is equivalent to having no effect.
And it may also be because of the behavior of sending troops to attack the border of Tanglin Kingdom this time, which made the old Chu king worry about it, and after he became the new emperor, he was strangled in turn.
He has now done his best, and united with the other barbarian clansmen, but the attack was still repulsed, so when the time comes to really become the new Eastern Emperor, the strength of the old Chu King is naturally not to be underestimated, and he is not half sure that he can win the old Chu King.
Under this kind of thinking, this barbarian king naturally didn't want to give up such a great opportunity, nor was he willing to give up such a good opportunity that would allow him to get more things and get more and more benefits.
And when the other people of the barbarian clan here saw the envoy sent by the Eastern Emperor, they directly said that they wanted to use the way of the four princesses to make peace with the barbarian king, so as to make them withdraw from the army.
But he coaxed directly, and there were two strong barbarian tribesmen, who directly stepped forward and suppressed the envoy, so that he was forced to kneel on the ground: "Damn, kneel down for Lao Tzu!" ”
At least in everyone's knowledge, if an envoy sent by the enemy country of the other side cannot be captured or killed.
Even if you can't give it good treatment, at least you should give it a proper attitude, even if the other party salutes, it is enough to let the other party kneel down directly.
And this kind of behavior done by this group of barbarian people is equivalent to pressing the face of the entire Tanglin Kingdom to the ground, after all, now this envoy has come to this wild place outside the border, which represents the face of the Eastern Emperor.
And he was already in a rather respectful state, and when he was saluting, he even had to suppress him so forcefully to kneel, kneel in front of the barbarian king, and still use such vulgar words.
It is enough to show that this time, they did not look at the Tanglin Kingdom at all, let alone the Eastern Emperor.
It was in this situation that he saw the envoy here, and his face suddenly became extremely ugly, but now that he was in the hands of these people, he would naturally not be so stupid, and directly move the Tanglin Kingdom or the Eastern Emperor out to shock.
After all, since these people are bold and reckless, to this extent, it also shows that they are not afraid of the power of the Tanglin Kingdom, nor are they afraid of the strength of the Tanglin Kingdom.
Therefore, before, it was indeed under the leadership of the old Chu King, this group of barbarian tribesmen was indeed repelled once, but they were not hurt much.
And now that the Eastern Emperor has decided to settle this war with them in a friendly way, then the old King of Chu cannot directly send troops to them with a rash move.
If they can't say it accurately, under the will of the Eastern Emperor, they may still enter the border city and go all the way to the capital to see the Eastern Emperor.
So in this situation, having seen too many things, and knowing how to do it, this envoy directly pressed down these barbarians and let him sit in the situation of these things.
He never said much, and he just knelt on the ground with extreme obedience, and stared straight at the barbarian king in front of him with a humble gesture that was no different from before.
This is only because in such a situation, although he cannot directly resist, lest he lose his life, but he also cannot grovel too much.
In the case where the other party forced him to kneel, he chose to kneel for a while, but he couldn't show his fear.
In this case, these barbarians will look down on him, and even more so from him to the entire Tanglin Kingdom, after all, in this situation, it is indeed they who have the upper hand.
Now that the Eastern Emperor intends to live in peace with them, it is not only that they have the upper hand, but also that they have completely suppressed their Dongling Kingdom this time.
"Barbarian King, why is this kind of move? It is to make the bow of the downward, that is, to be able to say it directly. ”
