Chapter 247: The Third Choice Outside of War and Peace

Inside the hall, it is extremely quiet.

I estimate that except for the people of the Yin Mission, other courtiers will hardly have the opportunity to see the black qi person make a move, no matter whether they are martial arts or not, they will all be stunned when they see the two black qi masters attacking a ghost togetherβ€”how strong is the true qi, and they can actually directly beat the ghost into a pile of ashes!

After being silent for a few seconds, Zheng Chenxi said lightly: "Come on, sweep him out." ”

Sweep...... That's a wonderful word!

Two little palace maids came over, swept the remains of Steward Li into a pinch with a broom, and took it out and poured it out, with such a tragic ending.

"Go ahead with the meeting," Zheng Chenxi sat back in his place, "Commander Chen, you go on." ”

I saw that Wang Situ was still kneeling on the ground, and asked for mercy from Lord Yama again: "Your Majesty, the top priority is to stabilize people's hearts, Wang Situ, and other people who may have received bribes from Emperor Song have been framed, and they are still standing here today, which shows that they are still loyal to Your Majesty, and I hope Your Majesty will not pursue them again." ”

Lord Yan pinched his beard, looked at me playfully, and said with a smile: "Chen Aiqing, you are very different. ”

I was a little confused, I didn't know if he was praising me or hurting me, and when I was a little at a loss, Zheng Chenxi said to the ministers below: "Whoever else has accepted bribes and takes the initiative to admit it, Your Majesty can be exempted from responsibility." ”

The palace marquis is equivalent to the second person, he can speak on behalf of Lord Yama, and he still has a lot of power, and in fact, it is Zheng Chenxi who has been speaking and expressing his position, and Comrade Lord Yan has always been silent and watched coldly, quite a big leader-big leader, all the last to speak.

The crowd looked at each other, no one was willing to stand up, Wang Situ began to order people in order to atone for his crimes: "Ma Situ, didn't you also receive it?" And General Zhu, Zhao Shilang! ”

The three people who were pointed out hurriedly knelt down and begged for mercy, and the others who were not clicked, when they saw that there was nothing wrong, they also knelt down and admitted that they had received bribes from Emperor Song, and the last statistics showed that more than 20 courtiers present were actually bribed by two-thirds, which shows that Song Xinyun is vicious with his intentions, if these courtiers unite to rebel, I estimate that Lord Yama may not be able to escape from the imperial city and successfully withdraw to this peach blossom land.

"Rank Aiqing, get up," Lord Yan finally said, "Extraordinary times, extraordinary things, it is understandable, Chen Aiqing is right, you are still standing here, it shows that you are still loyal to me, and I forgive you for the crime of concealment and non-retribution." ”

You see, the big leader speaks at a level, and Lord Yama used the word "concealment" to cover up the actual guilt of "accepting bribes", and understated it in one stroke, so that the courtiers can feel at ease, rest assured, and loyal.

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your magnanimity!"

After a small turmoil, the meeting continued, and this time no one scolded me again, and I finished telling my "war and peace theory" in one breath.

"There can be neither war nor peace, this is the current situation, Your Highness," I concluded, "and we can only choose the third way. ”

"What is it?" Lord Yama asked.

"Retreat."

"Where to retreat?" Zheng Chenxi frowned and asked, "This is already our last shelter. ”

"Demon Realm," I said, "Now only by going to the Demon Realm and recuperating can we have a chance to try again." ”

Zheng Chenxi shook his head: "Commander Chen, you must know that ordinary ghost people, it can even be said that most of the people present, whether in the demon world or the human world, will not be able to survive for a long time, they will be wiped out because of the magnetic field disorder, unless they are above the green gas realm, they can survive in those two realms, the people above the green gas, the ghost clan is very few, and the proportion in the army is even less than one thousandth, only the Yin Cha Mansion can migrate to the second realm of human demons, however, the power of the Yin Cha Mansion alone is not enough to fight against the Song Emperor's Palace, fight, You have to rely on the army. ”

"I know that," I laughed, "but I also know that there is a place in the demon world where the ghosts can adapt. ”

"Valley of the Dead?" Qin Shuyao exclaimed, and I nodded.

"yes, why didn't I think of that?" Qin Shuyao stood up excitedly, "Father, last time Chen Yang told me about this, Shuyao didn't pay much attention to it at the time, but now that I want to come, it can be used as an enclave of the main hall!" ”

An enclave is a territory that belongs to the jurisdiction but is not adjacent to the territory.

"Oh? And this kind of place? Lord Yama was also puzzled, "Chen Aiqing, that Valley of the Dead, in which country is the demon world?" ”

"White Tiger," I said, "but it's also very close to the Blue Dragon Country, and if we join forces with the Green Dragon, we may be able to use the Blue Dragon Army's army to occupy it." ”

"Okay, that's it!" Lord Yama was very excited, "Immediately order the defenders of each city, abandon the city and evacuate, and after converging in the Peach Blossom Spring, they will all retreat to the demon realm!" ”

"Your Majesty, don't be impatient," I said, "and Wei Chen thinks that he should send someone over there first, pave the way, and then go there?" We can't go directly to the demon world, but we have to go through the yang realm, and then go to the demon world through the portal, Your Majesty has such a large force, if you take the ordinary portal, I am afraid that it will be sniped by the forces of the three clans, only by taking the main portal of Lilac Lake, will we achieve a fast crossing, in this case, I have to go to the Qinglong side to arrange it first, and when the large army passes, I have to use the fastest speed to rush to the Valley of the Dead. ”

"It has to be within an hour," Qin Shuyao added, "otherwise most of the troops will be turned into smoke in the demon realm." ”

I nodded, and from a scientific point of view, it was.

"Peach Blossom Spring, how long can you keep it?" I asked Zheng Chenxi, and Zheng Chenxi looked at General Zhao again.

General Zhao thought for a while: "If all the soldiers and horses in the city are withdrawn, they can be defended for three days." ”

"Three days?" I frowned, "Can't it be any longer?" ”

β€œβ€¦β€¦ The last general is already quite optimistic," General Zhao smiled bitterly, "The enemy army is a coalition of five halls, and the difference in strength between the two sides is too great. ”

It's still a little late, and if I hadn't been captured by the dragon group, I might not have been so embarrassed if I managed to come to the underworld directly from the island country, but then again, who can predict the prophet?

"Without further ado, leave immediately," Qin Shuyao walked in front of me, this time, she didn't care about the eyes of others, she directly took my hand and turned to Lord Yama, "Father, Shu Yao doesn't understand military affairs, and it is of little use to stay, I am willing to go to the demon world with Chen Yang to pave the way for my father and the army." ”

"Okay," Lord Yan was not polite, and picked up a large brick-like green jade from the table, "My jade seal, you take it with you, as a token." First, you can represent me and negotiate with the Qinglong Kingdom, and second, once the Peach Blossom City is broken, you will be the king of Qin Guang! ”

"Father, the emperor's ......" Qin Shuyao had tears in her eyes, and knelt down to receive the jade seal.

"Go and come back quickly, and wait for your good news." Zheng Chen said to the west, as the head of the administration, she must stay.

"I have to go, right?" Su'er asked softly from the side.

"If you don't go, who will open the portal for us?" Qin Shuyao was coquettish.

"Aren't you afraid to be a light bulb for you?" Su'er laughed.

"Hehe, Xu'er, didn't your lamp cannon turn green above my head a long time ago?" Qin Shuyao also smiled.

The conversation between the two was very small, but because the space in the hall was smaller, everyone heard and understood the relationship between the three parties.

"Ahem!" Zheng Chenxi coughed heavily, "Stop talking nonsense, let's go!" ”

Zheng Chenxi may be afraid that the conversation will continue, and then drag her into the water.

"What about me?" Neo asked dumbly, he might not understand these things.

"Tsk! Isn't that messy enough? Don't follow to make trouble, you stay, and be responsible for protecting Your Majesty. Zheng Chenxi blamed.

β€œβ€¦β€¦ All right. Neo pouted, slightly dissatisfied, he just wanted to go and have fun.

The meeting ended successfully, and everyone was busy.

In the Peach Blossom Spring, there is no entrance to the Yang Realm, you have to go south for twenty miles, there is a small mountain town, a small "backing mountain", which is the closest Yang Realm passage from the Peach Blossom Spring, according to Qin Shuyao, the strategic significance of that backing mountain is almost zero, there should be no army of the Song Emperor's Palace, it doesn't matter, we just transit, not occupy, just go in.

Qin Shuyao and Xu Er and I came out, rode fast horses, and ran to the south gate of Peach Blossom Source City, but from a distance, we saw that the soldiers were moving southward, as if they were going to fight.
