Chapter 258: Forcing the Palace

"This brute!"

The Son of Heaven walked back and forth in the tent angrily, and news reached him, and he sadly found that he had a big problem with the command of his subordinates.

After the court meeting the day before yesterday, he dismissed a series of chamberlains and Praetorian Guard officers, because these people had been close to the crown prince, and also imprisoned several people such as Gonggong Wei, but sadly found that there was a shortage of useful manpower.

Why did the emperor of the Song Dynasty write the remembered talent on the screen, and why did it say that since ancient times, it is four words to describe a person who has been favored, Jane is in the emperor's heart?

Because no matter who you are, no matter how good your memory is, it is impossible to remember clearly and identify how many people around you can be used.

Because as an emperor, you have to know a person as a confidant, you have to spend time with him, at least chat, have a meal or get to know him in various ways, and not promote people according to official sources, documents, that's a joke.

However, he now finds that there is really not enough manpower, he consumed many people a year ago, and many people have been consumed in the past two days.

And he, the opponent this time, is the identity of the prince!

Just like just now, Shen Yu and his party broke into here, if it was someone else, they would have been chopped into meat paste a long time ago, but now they are still alive and kicking, and they are standing there safely.

Why didn't he attack the imperial city, why didn't he rebel! Why did he keep following me tirelessly and calling me Daddy!

I'll give you a chance to rebel, but you're making trouble in the capital!

"That's the condition of that brute?"

The Son of Heaven looked at the official who brought back the news, and his face turned blue with anger.

"The minister didn't dare to say it."

"What about Taifu, why can't he come?"

"Taifu said, the prince ...... No, that person was benevolent and willing to back down, he admired it, and faced the conditions put forward by the prince without the face. ”

The official's face turned blue, he was a person from the Son of Heaven, and he instigated a group of people from the Taifu to come forward to block the prince, using the reason that no matter what, the Son of Heaven is the Father, and there should be no rebellion at any time, if the prince has any reason, he can meet the Son of Heaven in person to make a statement, instead of leading troops to break in.

He said that he moved the Taifu and a group of civil officials, this group of people is a group of people who are really capable of the great cadres, thinking that Shen Yu would clash with them, but who would have thought that the prince did not have a conflict with them, but agreed with their views.

The prince said that he knew that the Son of Heaven was deceived by traitors, and he didn't want to do unbearable things, so he came today just to ask for peace, and put forward three major conditions.

First, acknowledge who I am.

You've all checked my identity, what else can't you be sure about now? The reason why I have been patient and compromised is because I am the crown prince, but Your Majesty, you have killed me again and again, and you still don't agree with me, so ...... Do you think, do I dare, will I rush in and fight you directly?

If the fight starts now, the prince will die, but what about the Son of Heaven? You and your ministers will surely leave a notorious reputation in history.

History books are like knives, and the things recorded at that time, I'm afraid that thousands of years later, everyone will be strangled, and the eight words of Zhaozhao every day and every day are really too difficult to look at.

You must first write down the decree and identify with me.

This is the name, and you are to give it to me.

Second, punish the generals who blocked the prince just now.

Who separated the crown prince from the Son of Heaven? Who stirred up the contradictions?

Of course not Your Majesty, there must be villains!

Today's events must be explained, the names of those people are listed, not only will they die (of course, some will die), but their families must be eradicated with the crime of rebellion!

Third, it was a quid pro quo, Shen Yu could leave the capital within a month and go to sea by boat after being recognized by the Son of Heaven under the witness of his ministers, and before leaving, he told everyone the location of the silver mine and the high-yield crops he had found and presented them to His Majesty.

"No, the second one is resolutely not!"

The Son of Heaven gritted his teeth and said categorically.

"That man said that if His Majesty does not agree, then he will be separated in two.

The day before yesterday, he did not persecute His Majesty in the main hall, nor did he set off a storm in the capital yesterday, and he came here today just to find a way out for himself and his subordinates.

Article 2: Your Majesty must agree, and only in this way can you let ......"

The officials were afraid to continue.

"Say!"

"He said it, he trusts His Majesty, but those who are separated from father and son must pay the price, only when His Majesty kills those families, he can rest assured, and he is not worried that someone will take risks in order to seek wealth and wealth."

"Brute, brute!"

The Son of Heaven only felt that his veins were constantly beating, this bastard was simply a brute!

When he was young, he competed for the throne with several elder brothers, and he had seen all kinds of intrigues and tricks, including some attacks and humiliations, but he had never seen anyone despise and ridicule him so nakedly!

He doesn't want any compensation, he doesn't need any communication, he just holds your head down, makes you admit that he is your son, calls you daddy sweetly, and most importantly, despises your IQ!

He dared to bet with his life that Shen Yu would never go out to sea on this boat, he would definitely press forward step by step, he agreed to Shen Yu's conditions, and in the next step, he must have a way to stay in the capital.

Finally sat on the throne!

But......

What kind of bullshit operation is this!

……

"Actually, opening up overseas is the royal way in the sage book."

There were melon seeds and fruits on a table, plus more than a dozen chairs placed here, and Shen Yu invited twenty or thirty Confucian and old gentlemen to chat together.

Although the Xue family was watching everything with a fierce eye, and although the Praetorian Guards in the distance even moved a bed crossbow, Shen Yu not only kept his face unchanged, but even said, "Don't worry, I'm here today to talk to Your Majesty, not to warn you, and peace is precious."

What's the hurry?

"The problem of Daqian is that there are too many people, and there will always be all kinds of problems when they develop, but it is very good to immigrate overseas and reclaim many places.

Perhaps, in a few years, overseas friends will write to our people here, Lao Li, come over quickly, we can eat meat here once a week, and ensure that you can eat a round belly.

Then, after Lao Li passed, he found that he was deceived by his friend, and instead of eating meat a week, he could eat meat every day, and he could eat as much as he wanted, so he was very strange and asked his friend why he lied to him?

There is no way, my old friend said, if I write to you, we have one meal of meat a day here, and eat it to your heart's content, you will definitely not believe me. ”

This is not made up, but in another time and space, the immigrants of the United States wrote to their brothers in Ireland, fearing that the brothers who were dying of starvation in Ireland would not believe it, and had to lie to them about the real things about the reclamation.

Who is our friend and who is our enemy must be clarified.

Today, these old gentlemen and Confucians are in front of him, everyone is already a very brave person, fighting for life and death, wanting to reconcile the contradictions between the Son of Heaven and himself, and not wanting to have an uncontrollable situation.

Before they blocked Shen Yu, they jointly wrote to the Son of Heaven, saying that since the prince has returned to the throne, then the Son of Heaven should renew the relationship between father and son, just like that, what else can Shen Yu say?

"Is there really such a place?"

"Yes, there really is."

Shen Yu's eyes sparkled, and his voice was full of temptation.

"Our planet is round, and there are many continents on it, and Daqian is just a part of one of them.

There is a continent, there is no one on it, the flat grassland is endless, the sun is shining all year round, grazing does not need to think about the threat of ice and snow, barbarian burning and killing, etc., as long as you are on it, just concentrate on harvesting, well, this boundless, refers to the real boundless, you can use it as a sunny pasture the size of two states.

There is a continent, several times larger than the area of Daqian, except for a few savages, there are all kinds of animals, endless bison are overwhelming, a herd is thousands or even tens of thousands, and even hundreds of thousands of bison herds are galloping around, where the surface is flat and boundless, and the climate is very similar to the climate of Daqian, incomparably rich.

For example, there is a bird over there, called a passenger pigeon, which is several times larger than a normal bird, like a chicken, and guess how many of them are in a flock? ”

The scene depicted by Shen Yu made the Confucians and old gentlemen at the scene feel relaxed and happy.

"Hundreds of thousands?"

"No, tens of millions, or even hundreds of millions!"

Shen Yu's voice was full of sincerity, the old gentlemen have been teaching and educating people all their lives, and they know very well that he is telling the truth, and he has really seen it!

"Hundreds of millions of chickens...... Such a group of people who can do a lot of work, each person has a chicken in the pot......"

Someone muttered to himself that he was born in poverty, and from childhood to adulthood, his family ate at most one chicken a year.

Some people listened with interest, but they raised questions.

"His Royal Highness the Prince, you said that you have seen these things, then, you have been in the deep palace, how can you have seen these things?"

"That's why I want to see the Son of Heaven today, and I want to explain the reason to the Son of Heaven.

The day before yesterday, His Majesty was deceived by the traitor, and actually wanted to marry my sister-in-law, and the situation was urgent at that time, so I had to show my true appearance.

Heaven and earth are humane, and there is no room for desecration.

I wanted to have a good talk with Your Majesty, but I found that my father was not only overjoyed, but thought that I was a demon.

If Your Majesty is not ready to renew your friendship with me, I will have no choice but to sail out to sea, but I have some things and some situations that I want to tell my father, such as why I know so much knowledge, and why I tell you that I have seen so many things. ”

Shen Yu sighed and poured a cup of tea for the old gentlemen.

"I came to see my father today, just to make this matter clear, some things are born in the world, and some things are from the ancestors of Sheji, I have conflicts with my father, he will not allow me, this is what I did as a son is not good, but I should still make it clear."

Shen Yu sighed and sighed again.

"If Your Majesty doesn't want to see me, then I have no choice but to leave. None of the three I have proposed are compromised. ”

The group of people in front of him has great power in terms of the right to speak, and Shen Yu only wants to know now, how is the old emperor going to deal with it?

Come on, hurt each other.

It's a big deal to fight a battle, and the mountains and rivers will be shattered, and the corpses will be mountains and a sea of blood!

……

Shen Yu was like this, chatting with the Confucians present about the affairs of Tiannan and Haibei.

In the modern era of Blue Star, many young people talked about the ancient Confucianism, and it was these people who were self-contained, but in fact, from ancient times to modern times, the Confucianism was the representative of the most advanced culture.

They lead the trend of the times, preserve the seeds of culture, and when they need change, they take the initiative to stand up and improve their theories from generation to generation.

Shen Yu and them have all met in Guozijian, they have all read the books written by Shen Yu, everyone has drunk tea every day, and the difference between chatting now and in the past is that Shen Yu talked about a lot of eye-opening things.

"Our planet, more than seventy percent of the ocean, there are all kinds of strange creatures in the sea, such as whales, the big one is equal to the weight of thousands of cows, as long as one is killed, the meat in it is enough for people in a county to eat, the taste is no different from beef, and there is thick fat, used to make candles, soap or something, very useful......"

Shen Yu was enthusiastically telling everyone about the scenes, and the messengers kept bringing back news. By the way, how do they explain it to the Son of Heaven?

Quite simply, Your Majesty, we want to extract the location of the silver mine from this man's mouth.

The old ministers, including the princes, persuaded Your Majesty that peace is precious, after all, now that there is really a trouble, things are out of control.

Not only these civil officials, but also the ministers, nobles, and members of the royal family who came with the Son of Heaven had to express their attitude.

Although the Son of Heaven can barely mobilize the Praetorian Guards now, it is difficult to form combat effectiveness, only a group of internal guards around him, but if these people are really used to kill Shen Yu, can't people run?

When the time comes, will there be emptiness around the emperor, and will anyone take the opportunity to make trouble?

Although everyone knows that Shen Yu advances by retreating, he ...... How do you know, Shen Yu must give face to the Son of Heaven?

"If Your Majesty refuses to recognize me, then I can only escape from the capital, but if Your Majesty wants to kill them all, then I can only fall into the grass."

Shen Yu smiled and said to the Confucians, speaking happily.

"Alas, it's not easy to fall into the grass and be a coward, but it's nothing, the military of Daqian has fallen behind, and I will come back to the Qingjun side with a new army when the time comes.

Ladies and gentlemen, don't be complacent, Daqian is not the most powerful country.

On a continent, I have seen some armies that use gunpowder weapons, and their weapons can take people's lives within 100 paces, and the range is even as far as 1,000 paces. ”

"What, nonsense? Okay, this little brother, you can take a look, this thing. ”

Shen Yu asked Xue Yuhua to take out three black and slippery things, and let the guard with strong internal strength pick one at random.

"Throw it at a place where there is no one over there, and let everyone see how powerful this weapon is that people are beginning to popularize."

Daqian already has firecrackers and the like, and the Tianji box that Shen Yu used before has gunpowder in it, and this grenade is some of the things that Shen Yu has made in the past six months by using spiritual power to purify and extract.

Although there is no machine tool, mental power, that is the best operating tool, just like the extraction of rabies vaccine.

The guard looked at Shen Yu, then at the big guys around him, nodded, and randomly selected one of the three black things.

The thing was very heavy, about six catties, but it was nothing to the guards, a few war horses were tied in the distance, he lit the fuse, and threw it dozens of meters away, and then only heard a loud noise, and everyone felt the power of the explosion.

The horses were blown to pieces, flesh and blood flew sideways, and some stones flew to this side, including an unlucky guy standing in the opposite direction, at least thirty meters away, only to be hit by a stirrup fragment, and half of his head disappeared with a bang.

Everyone present was stunned for a moment, this sweet potato-like thing is so powerful?

"This is just an auxiliary weapon used by their foot soldiers, and the weapon that is really used to kill people does not need to be thrown at all, only need to move their fingers, just like a bow and crossbow, killing people a hundred steps away, even if they are martial arts masters, they may not be able to stop it!"

Shen Yu said this, as if talking about ordinary things.

"They grew up in a much more barren place than we are, and they are divided into small countries that are constantly fighting and fighting, and their weapons are innovating and changing every day and every month, and the way they fight is the same.

While fighting on their own, they built sea ships, looked for new land, and when they went up, they killed all the local men, leaving only women and children as slaves, and they would come to Daqian sooner or later, because our Daqian is their legendary ultimate golden country. ”

"Nonsense, there is such a country there!"

Someone retorted like this, but Shen Yu just smiled.

"After so many years, so many silks and handicrafts have been sold through the Northwest Corridor? Or do you doubt the power of this thing? ”

Shen Yu's words made the man fall silent.

"As for the thinking of the people over there, they are different from us, so I'll tell you a story.

There used to be an island city-state of Milos, and two countries, Athens and Sparta, were at war, and they wanted to remain neutral between Athens and the Spartans, but the Athenians did not agree.

During the pre-war negotiations, the Athenians were straightforward in their assertion that justice was based on a balance of power between the two sides, that the strong could do everything they could, and that the weak could only endure what they had to endure. Demanded that Milos must join the Empire (Delian League), believing that this would be beneficial to both sides.

The Milos were reluctant, believing that after joining the empire, Athens would be the master and Milos would be a slave, and this would do the Milos any benefit.

The Athenians are naked and threatened: because you have submitted, you will be spared the catastrophe.

The Milos were unwilling to accept such humiliating terms, and after the negotiations collapsed, the Athenians began to organize a siege.

The Milos were mired in civil strife during the long siege of Athens and finally surrendered unconditionally to the Athenians.

The Athenians executed all the adult men of Milos who had been captured, and sold the women and children into slavery. ”

"By the way, this is the most glorious and civilized country over there, and the glorious era of the highest morality in their history, similar to our three emperors and five emperors, whether it is Athens or Sparta, is still praised today, and guess what will happen to them when they come?"

Shen Yu pointed to the remaining two black and large sweet potato-like grenades placed on the table, and signaled that the one who helped to help the eyes was actually an official of the Ministry of Industry who had been eager to test the explosives.

"Okay, I suspect you temporarily buried gunpowder over there just now, I'll find another place to test it!"

Shen Yu was amazed by the brazen and brazen methods of the Ministry of Industry officials, especially when he left with two swarthy grenades, saying that there were too many people here, it was too dangerous, and he was going to test it elsewhere, which was actually dedicated to the Son of Heaven.

Shen Yu can only say that this person has a bright future!

Well, go ahead and drink tea and sip melon seeds.

Yesterday I watched the news...... Over there, it's really eye-opening......
