Chapter 1277: The Ass Determines the Head
Now that the Imperial Sky Moon took the initiative to stop the attack and made a gesture that it was going to rest for a long time, the Great Sun Demon Kingdom army, which had been pressed and beaten by it before, suddenly secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
At the same time, the army of the Great Sun Demon Kingdom, which had been sulking for a while, decided to find a punching bag to spill out, so they naturally set their sights on their long-cherished enemy, the Tianyu Empire.
Almost overnight, the whole situation changed suddenly.
Except for a part of the army that was placed hundreds of miles in front of the Imperial Sky Moon, the army of the Great Sun Demon Kingdom made a posture that I didn't want to fight with you, but just watched you, and the rest of the army began to fully turn to the battlefield where the Great Sun Demon Kingdom and the Tianyu Empire were fighting.
In addition to the army's posture of not messing with you and not beating me, at the same time, the envoys of the Great Sun Demon Kingdom also rushed to the Han Dynasty and began to lobby the ministers of civil and military affairs.
There is only one meaning that the envoys of the Great Sun Demon Kingdom want to express, although there was a small friction between the Great Sun Demon Kingdom and the Great Han Dynasty in the past, the relationship is still good, the friendship is far-reaching, and it is not good to fight and kill. The killing of the envoys before was all a misunderstanding, but the Tianyu Empire was obstructing it, wanting to provoke the two countries to go to war, and then they took advantage of the fisherman's intentions, which is simply outrageous.
It is precisely because the Tianyu Empire is so despicable and shameless that the Great Sun Demon Kingdom and the Great Han Dynasty should recognize its ugly face and shameless behavior, turn the war into a jade silk, and join forces to beat the Tianyu Empire to death.
The envoy of the Great Sun Demon Kingdom even said that as long as the war between the Great Sun Demon Kingdom and the Great Han Dynasty can be quelled, any conditions can be negotiated. For the sake of friendship and peace, even if it is impossible to give up some territory to the Great Sun Demon Kingdom.
I have to say that the words of the envoys of the Great Sun Demon Kingdom are quite encouraging and very tempting, so the direction of the wind in the court of the Han Dynasty soon changed.
In addition to the fact that some of the main peace factions continued to vigorously advocate the uselessness of war and long live peace, some less determined main war factions also wavered.
"What should be done about this matter?" After Zhao Weiwei and Liu Yulinglong returned to the capital, they were summoned to the palace by Emperor Jingping, and then put such a question in front of them.
"Of course this is ......" Liu Yulinglong couldn't help but feel angry in his heart when he heard this, and he wanted to say that of course he couldn't just forget it, since the war had begun, how could he do it if he didn't win?
It's just that before he finished speaking, Zhao Wei stopped him with a look.
Then Zhao Weicai said: "This matter is very important, how can we make the decision, naturally it is to be handed over to the emperor's holy judge, whether it is war or peace, we will listen to the emperor's decision." ”
These words are righteous and awe-inspiring, loyal, and full of the posture of taking the emperor's head as the head and obeying his orders.
But if you listen to it from beginning to end, you will find that what you have said for a long time is the same as not saying it. Zhao Weiwei kicked the ball back to Emperor Jingping.
"Ah?!" Emperor Jingping was stunned when he heard Zhao Weiwei's words.
Because although Zhao Weiwei's attitude towards him was polite before, it was really not like now.
In the past, he asked Zhao Wei for help or help, and he was always able to get answers and solutions quickly. Nothing like this has ever happened.
"What do you mean by that?" asked Emperor Jingping.
"Since the emperor is in charge, how can our courtiers make decisions without permission. Zhao Weiwei said again.
Liu Yu Linglong stood aside, his eyes half-squinted, as if he was asleep. He hadn't figured out what was going on, so he decided to wait and see.
"Isn't it true that I can't make a decision, so I want to discuss it with you?" Emperor Jingping said helplessly. It can be seen that after he became this emperor, in addition to calling himself me, his treatment of Zhao Weiwei and Liu Yulinglong has not changed much from the past.
"I don't know, why don't you listen to the opinions of the courtiers more?" Zhao Weiwei's eyes flashed with a gleam, and said, "Whether it's war or peace, we don't have any opinions." I still have some important things to do, so I'll take my leave. ”
As he spoke, Zhao Weiwei bowed his hand to Emperor Jingping, took a step back and turned around and left.
Liu Yu Linglong naturally wouldn't stay any longer, and followed Zhao Weiwei out of the palace.
"What was the situation just now, what kind of dumb riddle did you fight?" Walking out of the palace, Liu Yu Linglong still asked with some confusion.
"The emperor asked us what to do, it means that he is hesitating now, he doesn't know whether to fight or make peace, otherwise why ask more, just keep it as it is. Speaking of this, Zhao Wei sneered: "In the end, the boss is right, the affairs of the Han Dynasty are still less good, and if you do it, you may not be able to please it, and maybe you won't even have love in the future." ”
"Could it be that the Thirteen Princes will still turn their faces against us?" Liu Yulinglong looked at Zhao Weiyi, and said with surprise and disbelief on his face: "Can't you?"
"Who can say for sure. Don't forget, he is not the Thirteenth Prince now, he is Emperor Jingping. Zhao Wei sneered: "In addition to the boss being indifferent to power, how many people can be willing to give up this great world?
"According to what you say, the emperor is going to cross the river and demolish the bridge, which is not good for us?" Liu Yulinglong said.
"Not necessarily, as long as he wasn't stupid, he wouldn't do it now, but he had to be on guard. Zhao Wei said with a gloomy face: "He is hesitant now, most likely under the influence of those courtiers in the court. Now that we can stop a war related to the fortunes of the country because of a few nonsense words from the courtiers, who knows if we will be killed again in the future for the slander of some people?"
"Damn, let's help him wholeheartedly, and in the end we will become a bad person?" Liu Yulinglong was immediately unhappy when he heard this, and said: "If I want to be a minister, why help him, let's throw away our own territory and come over to help him, but in the end, it will become a mistake, who to reason with." ”
"He won't do it now, and he won't be able to keep it in the future, so let's be less busy. Zhao Weiwei said: "There are so many ministers in the court, all of them are proficient in Wen Taowu, he loves to believe in whoever he likes to use." ”
"That's it. Liu Yulinglong said: "Lao Tzu is no longer serving." ”
"We can't completely pick the pick, the boss is still fighting, even if we don't care about the emperor, can we still help the boss?" Zhao Wei said: "Money, food, ordnance or something, you still move forward, we won't interfere in other idle matters, and when we finish the battle of the Great Sun Demon Kingdom, we will withdraw the manpower from the Han Dynasty and don't play with them from now on." ”
"That's what the boss said?" asked Liu Yulinglong.
That's what he seemed to mean. Zhao Weiwei said.
"That's it. Liu Yulinglong clapped his hands and said, "Anyway, I'm tired of those guys in the court who eat people and don't do anything, so it's just worry-free." ”
Seeing Zhao Weiwei and Liu Yulinglong leave like this, Emperor Jingping couldn't help but be a little dazed. He could obviously see that the two of them were a little estranged from him, but he couldn't think of what the problem was for a while.
However, Emperor Jingping was a smart man after all, even if he couldn't figure it out at first, but after thinking about everything several times, he quickly figured out the problem.
"Blame me, I'm really confused!" Emperor Jingping patted his head, and his heart was suddenly stunned, and at the same time, he couldn't help but feel ashamed and afraid.
He was indeed hesitating whether he should take this opportunity to make peace with the Great Sun Demon Kingdom. At the very least, the war can cease and the rebellion in the country can be resolved.
It's just that at that time, he forgot that this battle was fought to this point, not to say how brave and fierce his soldiers and horses of the Han Dynasty were, so that he could have today's victory and force the Great Sun Demon Kingdom to sue for peace in turn.
It was Xia Fan and the people around him who really led this war and won it, and at the same time paid a lot for it.
If Emperor Jingping really agreed to the request for peace talks with the Great Sun Demon Kingdom, then where would Xia Fan and the others be?
This may not be considered a betrayal, but it is definitely a crossing of the river and the demolition of the bridge, and from the beginning to the end, Emperor Jingping only considered his Han Dynasty but never thought about Xia Fan and his interests.
If Xia Fan is a courtier of the Han Dynasty, and his soldiers and horses are also soldiers and horses of the Han Dynasty, it is naturally understandable, maybe no matter how aggrieved he is, he has to shout a sentence about the emperor's wisdom, thunder, rain and dew are the emperor's grace and the like.
But the problem is that this is not the case.
Xia Fan is helping him in terms of the brotherhood between the two, if Emperor Jingping really talks to the Great Sun Demon Kingdom for the benefit of the Han Dynasty, then this brotherhood can be regarded as a complete injury.
"I used to hear the senior brother say that the ass decides the head, and I didn't believe it, but now it seems that this is really the case. Emperor Jingping smiled bitterly, regretting it in his heart, and at the same time he became unusually calm.
Emperor Jingping compared his state of mind before and after ascending the throne, and finally realized that he had indeed changed. Although he said that he thought about it in his heart and was not affected by the identity of the emperor, he still sank while sitting on the dragon chair, listening to the courtiers shouting long live, knowing that he was in control of everyone's life and death.
Fortunately, I came to my senses relatively early, otherwise it would have been too late to turn back in the future.
After pondering for a long time, Emperor Jingping's eyes became clearer and clearer, and the smile on his face became brighter and brighter, just like when he was in the Qiankun Sect that day.
After understanding what his mistake was, Emperor Jingping quietly left the palace and went to the town king's mansion to see Zhao Weiwei and Liu Yulinglong.
Although the town king is gone, the original town king's mansion still remains, and it is still owned by Xia Fan. Zhao Weiwei and Liu Yulinglong were too lazy to go home in the mansion, and they usually stayed here.
When the two came back from the palace, they were drinking tea and chatting, but they didn't want Emperor Jingping to run over, which startled them.
Emperor Jingping didn't twist, he was very happy to compensate the two of them, and then said some of his thoughts on self-reflection, and his posture was very low.
Seeing this, Zhao Weiwei and Liu Yulinglong naturally couldn't bother with him anymore, so they picked up the teacup and touched Emperor Jingping, which was regarded as turning the previous matter over.
