When the drum on the city tower just sounded, the civil and military officials passed through half of the capital at five o'clock in the morning, lined up in front of the noon gate, and waited in front of the palace gate when the drum fell and the palace gate was opened, and the hundred officials entered in turn.

On the top of the palace, the king was dressed in a bright yellow dragon robe, sitting on the dragon chair, looking down at the world, looking down on the civil and military officials!

Each hundred officials knelt down and bowed three times, and after the ceremony, a minister moved in front of the king, he was very careful, and reported the important government affairs since yesterday and a day according to the regular practice, and as soon as the words were over, the king on the dragon chair frowned, and the troubles were written on his face, but this frowning appearance only made the hundred officials in front of him look at it, and they were in awe from the bottom of their hearts, and their heads drooped low.

The hundreds of officials peeked left and right in private, for fear that if one eye met the king, they would cause trouble.

Under the silence, the king was still furious: "I think that my Wei country is the time to use people, you are good to wait, and you have become an idle person, now, the territory is urgent, the people are not happy, if you can't come up with a way, this king will punish you to go to the battlefield, and if you can't win the battle, you won't let you come back." ”

There was an uproar in the audience, and they all exchanged heads and ears, and no one wanted to really go to the front line, but they couldn't help it, so they shook their heads one by one.

A minister mustered up his courage and stepped forward tremblingly: "The king is angry, the king should not be angry and ruined." The frontier is not a matter of one or two days, I think that Shu is determined to attack my Wei country, if you don't find a way to quell the war as soon as possible, and when the Shu country enters the city, I am afraid that it will not be able to stop it, and then it will make the real people miserable. Now, only the people of Li near the frontier have suffered a little, but it has been a long time, and it is difficult for this frontier to be defended. Those soldiers on the frontier have been injured countless times, the front line is already a broken and ruined plain, and the people living there are at a loss for their attachment to life. The minister thought that when the people were recruited quickly, all the adult men were sent to the front, and the young people were better than the sick and weak bodies of us courtiers. ”

Another courtier hurriedly said, "Where is there a strong man?" Master Fu is really joking, young strong men, from all families, have long been conscripted to the front line. He sighed again: "Alas, thinking that I am a big country, there is no talent to cast, it is really not possible, and I can only cut off some territory to temporarily ensure the well-being of the surrounding people, and then kill back when my soldiers have rested and recuperated." ”

As soon as the courtier's voice fell, the king Long Yan was furious, and slapped the table with a "snap".

"Mediocrity, mediocrity, all of them are mediocre, you can say such things that grow the ambition of others and destroy your own prestige? Even if my Wei State is poor and talented, I will not give up a little bit of land to others. ”

In front of his fingers, the corners of his robe were like the surging golden waves, the sleeves were carried high by the wind, and the long eyebrows were raised, and he said: "The first king has always known people well, cultivated internal affairs, and ruled by Ming Zhang, but when he came to this king, he never changed the slightest. How did you expect that today, in front of you old courtiers, you are useless. I can't imagine that when it comes to employing people, you can't use them one by one, do you know that the country is safe and the people are happy, and the people are rich and the country is strong, and now, do you want to sit and wait for death? But the way to be a courtier? Thinking about the worries of the Son of Heaven? ”

As soon as the king's words fell, everyone knelt down in unison, and there was silence.

"Long live my king, long live long live my king." Just as he was about to wave his sleeves and be furious, he was about to lift the table in front of him, only to see a person walking in the hall.

Following the prestige, a young man walked with light steps before meeting, his face was like a carving, his facial features were distinct, his eyebrows were picturesque, his skin was like bronze casting, his eyes were clear, and he had a bad smile, and he looked dissolute on the outside, but the light in his eyes made people dare not underestimate him.

Although he knew that he was the new martial champion, he was really a little young, although he was young and could do something, but there was nothing to worry about in front of the many officials in front of him, he would not believe the hairy boy in front of him.

only said lightly: "This king has been very physically and mentally exhausted recently, and no one can solve his worries, do you have a good elixir to solve the king's worries?" ”

After bowing in front of the king, he said: "The minister heard that my king has been suffering from a headache for the frontier war recently, and the anger of the Son of Heaven must be for the minister's inaction, and for the minister, it must be, even if the corpse is thousands of pieces and the blood is thousands of miles, he must stand up, which is the way of the minister." ”

When the king heard this, he heard the strength in his words, and suddenly came to his senses: "Okay, what this king wants is a person like you who has thousands of corpses, bled thousands of miles, and is loyal to the country. It's just that, according to the current situation, Aiqing, what are your plans? Tell me quickly, and come to this king. ”

He turned his head and glanced at Sun Meng from a distance behind him, the wind blowing, and the hair on his forehead fell into waves. He smiled slightly, a trace of uninhibited ripples on his face.

"I think that my Wei State is a well-deserved great country, and at any time, I will not grovel to the enemy. In the face of the bullying and tyranny of Shu, we can't back down a bit, and we should sacrifice ourselves to protect the country. It's just that at the moment, in the case that Shu is still in the lead, if it is a brute attack, it will be unfavorable to our Wei State. ”

The head of his analysis was Dao, and even the king in front of him suddenly sat up straight.

"I can't imagine that you are young, and your talent and momentum are definitely not below others, this king wants to listen to you carefully, but what good plan have you come up with? When you came near, you said that you should listen to this king, and this king should listen carefully. ”

He stepped forward, arched his hands on his chest, and said respectfully: "The minister has inquired a long time ago, the king of Shu is a king, and now there is a shortage of food and grass, if the two countries fight desperately, even if the wounded soldiers also lose food, they may not necessarily win." It is better to follow the habits of the king of Shu and give him a plan, which is a more stable way at the moment. Even if it stabilizes the thief's heart, it is also good to give ourselves time to breathe, and after raising soldiers and horses, it is not difficult for him to exterminate them one by one. ”

When Lord Fu heard this, he arched his hands on his chest, walked quickly to the king, and then turned to Qiu Hongwen and replied dissatisfiedly: "The minister dares to ask you in front of the king, what General Qiu just said is really the same as not saying it, you said before that you would not grovel to others, and the latter offered this strategy, I think this is the real servile knee." ”
