Two days later, in the capital, a fast horse from Jizhou galloped into the city, holding a secret letter in his hand.

Three hours later, in the East Palace, Xu Jing's ministers were all present.

Even Lin Hai, who almost died in Danzhou, was also not absent.

"Your Majesty has arrived!"

With Gonggong Cao shouting, several people got up one after another and looked in the direction of Xu Jinglai.

saw Xu Jing walk in front of everyone step by step.

"Wait, I've seen Your Majesty!"

Several people knelt down on one knee and shouted.

"Alright, let's all get up."

Xu Jing sat on the main seat and motioned for a few people to sit down.

But none of the three of them were willing to sit down, looking at Xu Jing with guilt on their faces.

"If the ministers live up to His Majesty's trust, how can they have the face to sit down?"

"Please also ask Your Majesty to punish us for dereliction of duty!"

The three of them fell to their knees and shouted.

"What? Do you want me to help them one by one? ”

Xu Jing chuckled, not caring about this at all.

"But it is true that we have not accomplished what Your Majesty has asked us to do on this trip."

"Not to mention, the people of Anxi fell under the hooves of the Tianshan army, and countless dead and wounded were starved everywhere."

"Even if you don't defend the country, it's enough to be convicted!"

Xu Sen and Jiang Zhenting shouted with guilt on their faces.

"Yes! If it weren't for the old minister's excessive action, how could he provoke such fierce resistance in Danzhou? ”

"In the final analysis, it was the old minister's dereliction of duty that caused such a catastrophe."

"Right now, I'm afraid that the land of Danzhou is in a catastrophe, and I don't know how many innocent people will die tragically in the war."

Lin Hai lowered his head and was full of guilt.

"What? Dereliction of duty is death? ”

"Well, in that case, when I was trying to save you, why didn't you wake up and think about it?"

"If you said that at that time, I will definitely let you die as you wish."

"But now, Daqian has spent a lot of rare treasures to save you. Could it be that you plan to give back to me with this? ”

Xu Jing's voice was sharp, and the three of them lowered their heads and were silent and didn't dare to say a word.

Xu Jing could see that the three of them were full of guilt at the moment, and their tone was a little softer: "I know that several Aiqing are all people who are worried about the country and the king. ”

"In that case, why not learn the lesson of this time and better serve the cadres?"

Xu Jing watched the three of them loosen their emotions and continued: "Let's all get up." ”

"A group of senior officials above the second rank kneel here, what kind of system is it? If it spreads, I am afraid that I will be accused of being mean to the court's important ministers again. ”

Xu Jing's last ridiculous words made the three of them breathe a sigh of relief in their hearts, and slowly got up and sat down.

"Let's talk about it, what do you think of the news from Jizhou."

After the three of them sat down, Xu Jing asked without delay.

"I think that if you are not of my race, your heart will be different! When this frost Gui Xihou said this, what he would think in his heart, but he didn't know. ”

"Not to mention whether this is a conspiracy on the Mobei side, there is really such a thing, God knows if this Marquis of Shuanggui will use the conditions given by Daqian to communicate privately with the king of Mobei?"

Lin Hai was the first to stand up against it.

As the mainstay of the Daqian Dynasty for many years, he has experienced countless wars.

In the past few years, Daqian has Zhao'an Mobei tribe several times.

But these tribes are either pretending to be honest or waiting for an opportunity to steal information.

Otherwise, they informed the Mobei side of the matter of the Daqian Zhao'an, and set up an ambush for the Daqian's receiving army as early as possible, resulting in countless casualties among the Daqian's officers and soldiers.

It was naturally impossible for Lin Hai to agree to Zhao'an, lest this be a trap set by Mobei.

Xu Jing listened to what Lin Hai said, nodded slightly, and moved his gaze to Xu Sen and Jiang Zhenting.

"The minister's opinion is not much different from Prime Minister Lin, but there are some differences."

"I think this is an excellent moment, not to mention whether this surrender is false or sincere."

"If Da Qian can come up with enough favorable conditions, I think that the Marquis of Shuanggui will not agree, and the rest of the tribes will also be ready to move."

"As for the fact that Daqian was ambushed several times, the minister thought that the Toucheng team could be allowed to enter the territory of Daqian through the Tianshan Mountains."

"In this way, even if Mobei wants to set up an ambush, it will be difficult to escape the ears and eyes of the Tianshan spies."

Lin Hai stood up and said in a low voice.

"That's right! If Ruoer and the others are pretending to surrender to sincerity, but in fact they are ambushing, we can wipe out this army! ”

"With the big snow dragon rider and the Tianshan army, it is difficult to take advantage of the 100,000 troops sent to Mobei."

Jiang Zhenting stood up and bowed.

"No! If Tianshan is allowed to intervene in this matter at such a time, God knows if they will defect? ”

"Not to mention that Da Qiangang had a big war with Tianshan, and there is a deep blood feud between the two sides."

"If this group of Tianshan soldiers sees that Mobei is strong, and then changes their strategy in battle, then wouldn't they put the big snow dragon rider in the Longtan Tiger's Den?"

Lin Hai hurriedly stood up and shouted again and again.

Xu Jing rubbed his chin and thought slightly.

Each of these three people has their own opinions, and they all have some truth.

Xu Jing was a little unsure for a while, and he was not sure who he wanted to do according to his words.

"Gonggong Cao, what do you think this matter should be?"

Xu Jing glanced sideways, and Gonggong Cao on the side asked in a low voice.

"Your Majesty, the old slave is just a eunuch, and he is not qualified to interfere in politics."

"It is a great honor for the old slave to listen to such a big event."

Father-in-law Cao smiled awkwardly and complimented.

"Yes, you can do this in front of outsiders. It's just me here, so let's just say it. ”

Xu Jing impatiently interrupted Gonggong Cao's flattering words and gestured.

"If so, the old slave will be blunt." Gonggong Cao smiled and bowed his head and said, "The old slave thinks that Your Majesty doesn't have to think so much about it now. ”

After Cao Gonggong finished speaking, Xu Jing and the three of them all looked at Cao Gong.

"Right now, this Marquis of Frost Guixi wants to see His Majesty, and he is bound to negotiate conditions."

"Whether this condition can be negotiated is still unknown, so why think about such a long-term thing?"

"The old slave thinks that the Li family has been in Jizhou for many years, and they must know a lot about the people of Daxia."

"As for whether or not to agree to the surrender of the people of Great Xia, it is not too late to wait until Your Majesty sees you."

Xu Jing and the three of them all bowed their heads and were silent.

yes, why would they skip the appointment and talk about anything else?

"That's reasonable, then I'll wait until I'll see you in three days."

Xu Jingjing nodded and continued with Gonggong Cao's words.

"Your Majesty, the minister thinks that Gonggong Cao can stay in the palace, I am afraid that there will be a lot of grievances."

Lin Hai smiled mysteriously, looked at Xu Jing and said.

"Oh? So what should Cao Gong do? ”

Xu Jing chuckled lightly, looking at Lin Hai with a flat smile.

"The minister thinks that Cao Gong should be allowed to join the army."

"With Cao Gong's ability, he can become a general in half a year at most. Maybe he's still a real general. ”

Lin Hai laughed and said.

As for what Lin Hai said, the gap between genuine and miscellaneous cards seems to be small, but in fact there is a world of difference.
