Chapter 3: Know the times and be rich

The rain in September poured down all night, as if the entire city had been thoroughly cleaned. The next day after the rain, although there was still a little cool air in the air that could not be concealed, but in the face of the gradually rising sun, the slightest cool air was quickly dispersed and evaporated without a trace.

Early in the morning, there were countless eyes that were secretly watching the Liuxian Pavilion, paying attention to any movement of the person in the Liuxian Pavilion. Although the person who lives in the Liuxian Pavilion is no longer the same person as them, it is precisely because it is not the same person that in their eyes, they are a little more 'confused' and 'confused' about this person who has been familiar with them... and awe, after all, behind that person, what kind of power is standing, they are very clear in their hearts, and those who are not clear will not send someone to appear here at this moment.

What was the reaction in the palace last night, they don't know, but early in the morning, two internal officials from the palace came to the Liuxian Pavilion, and they all saw it, there is no doubt that this Lord Cui, even His Majesty King Li, would not dare to ignore it.

Under the escort of his entourage, the internal officials retreated from the Liuxian Pavilion, and then rode on their horses and walked away, and it didn't take long for the entire Liuxian Pavilion to slowly become noisy, obviously, the two internal officials brought the will of the palace, and the one in the Liuxian Pavilion at this moment should be responding to the will of the palace. This movement seems, it seems, the people inside, are going out?

Their speculation became a reality, Cui Yanghao walked out of the 'door' with two guards, and behind him, there were extremely bright smiles on the faces of the junior officials of the Liuxian Pavilion: "Master Cui, go slowly, the two fathers-in-law are waiting for the adult's drive in front, and the lower officials will not come forward to join in the fun!"

"Well, those subordinates who greeted me with good students!" Cui Yanghao commanded, stepped on the green horse, and walked towards the palace unhurriedly, with such calmness, it looked as if he was going to the suburbs.

Those who secretly glimpsed all this quietly dispersed, at this time, they no longer had to follow, and it was the most important thing to quickly report the news to the master's family.

The road to the palace, Cui Yanghao is very familiar, in fact, the streets and alleys of Seoul, he is very familiar, born in Si, grew up in Si, he wants to be unfamiliar with it, it is difficult. He sat on the green horse like this, silently rehearsing the rhetoric in his heart, rehearsing those, he seemed to have considered countless rhetoric on the way, he was a little nervous, after all, this time, he had to face his former king, the monarch who had to kneel down at any time before he joined the Fengzi camp.

The two internal officials waited for him at the entrance of the palace 'gate', waited until he passed, jumped off the horse, signaled slightly, and led the way all over the front. Those forbidden troops in the inner city on duty also got the news, and let Cui Yanghao, who was clearly obedient to them, walk in front of them, they didn't squint, as if they hadn't seen it.

"Envoy Cui, please wait in the Yin'an Palace, Your Majesty and all the adults are discussing state affairs, let me go and pass it on!" The internal official directly pushed Cui Yanghao outside the 'door' of the hall and went straight to the palace.

"Discuss state affairs, I'm afraid it's a discussion, how to deal with yourself!" The corners of Cui Yanghao's mouth flashed a slight smile, he remembered his father, if the envoy this time was not himself, then his father should also be one of the ministers who accompanied His Majesty King Li in the Yin'an Palace at this time!

"Envoy Cui, Your Majesty invites you in!"

Stepping into this magnificent hall, Cui Yanghao sighed slightly, this hall, he has been here many times, but, every time he comes, his mood is different, and now, it has changed from the previous awe to indifference, all this is just because, before this, he was just one of the many officials in this hall, but now, he is above these officials.

"Cui Yanghao, Your Majesty treats you as a national soldier, and you will be relied on to be a dry city, and you will be honored with honor, and now, you have stepped into this Yin'an Palace again, have you ever felt half ashamed?" Before he could feel it, an angry rebuke interrupted Cui Yanghao's thoughts.

"Is Lord Jin questioning me Cui, or is he scolding the envoys of the New Army?" Cui Yanghao looked at the other party's gray hair, the left Yizheng of the House of Representatives, and his father's long-time political enemy, Jin Minquan, was angry at him.

"It's all you villain, what's the difference!" Jin Minquan's momentum continued unabated, and he shouted: "It's difficult, you are still two people!" ”

"What a difference!" Cui Yanghao's rehearsal in advance did not have this one, but this is not an accident, this kind of questioning, before he set off, he had expected that there would be, but he didn't expect that it would be on this occasion, by this person.

"If you question me Cui, although Cui is unwilling, but Master Jin has been a friend of my father for many years, in terms of qualifications and prestige, even if Cui has resentment and resentment, he can only bear it!"

Cui Yanghao said lightly, his words turned around, and his voice became stern: "However, if it is Cui Yanghao, the envoy of the new army, who is scolded, it will not give me the face of the 100,000 people of the new army, and wash away the price of such humiliation, I am afraid that Lord Jin will not be able to pay it!" ”

Cui Yanghao's words were sonorous, now he represents Yu Feng and the New Army, if he weakens his momentum a little, how can this next conversation continue? Moreover, Cui Yanghao really still hopes that this war will not be fought, after all, he is also a North Korean, and what he said is also Xunmin Zhengyin, if because of his weakness, King Li and his ministers feel that they can resist the new army, then he has really become a sinner of the nation.

In other words, although he came here to negotiate with Li Cong on behalf of Yu Feng, he thought in his heart that his starting point was still good, and he still sincerely thought about all North Koreans.

"You..." Jin Minquan's beard stood up, and he was about to refute, sitting on the right seat, after Cui Yanghao came in, Li Cong, who had not made a sound, slowly spoke: "Jin Qing, the benefits of words are useless, don't dwell on Cui Envoy's previous identity!" ”

The voice is very flat, 'waves' are not shocked, and I can't hear any feelings, but Cui Yanghao still moved slightly in his heart, he always thought that Li Cong was angry and angry about his betrayal, and he was also ready to bear Li Cong's ridicule and even contempt, in the final analysis, in his heart, he always felt a little guilty about himself, the former king.

However, Li Cong's performance made him feel a little better in his heart, although the emperor's heart is elusive, but His Majesty King Li's title is not so deep, it seems that he really doesn't care about his betrayal anymore?

"Cui Envoy, is there anything you want to discuss with this king when you come this time?"

"Exactly!" Cui Yanghao took advantage of the situation to put aside Jin Minquan and no longer dwell on this issue: "I don't know Your Majesty King Li, do you know about the current trend?" ”

"'Traitor' thief! Villain! When Jin Minquan heard him call Li Cong His Majesty King Li unashamedly, he muttered hatefully: "No monarch father, 'chaos' Gangchang, what a villain!" ”

Li Cong was silent, what the situation is now, he naturally knows, even if his subordinates in the past, no matter how much they deceived him, but at this moment, he will not take his net worth and 'life' to do this kind of thing again, Li Cong at this time will kill people.

"Your Majesty King Li, the new army is now stationed in Haizhou, it has been more than a month, tens of thousands of male divisions, the sword is pointing at Kaesong, and now His Majesty's military strength is only afraid of the defenders of this Hancheng, most of them are concentrated in this Kaesong, even so, full of battles, this Kaesong defenders, can occupy the army, but less than 20,000!" He raised two fingers, "And the Haizhou New Army, stand above twice as much!" ”

"What's the use of having more soldiers, didn't the righteous army of our dynasty break five thousand Japanese in the Renshen period, with 800 people?" Jin Minquan shouted again, although he knew that Cui Yanghao was not exaggerating, but he just didn't like him.

"Lord Kim, that's not how this account is calculated!" Cui Yanghao glanced at him and said coldly: "How these widows were expelled in the end, I'm afraid Lord Jin won't know!" ”

No matter how much the Volunteers can fight, they can't keep the 3,000 miles of rivers and mountains under the invasion of the Japanese Invaders, besides, is that the Volunteer Army, is it His Majesty King Li's army? What kind of bullshit metaphor is this, nondescript.

"The Ming army was defeated by General Li's Ming army, and they crossed the sea in a hurry, the combat power of the Ming army, I'm afraid I won't say it, you also know it very well, today's Ming army, millions of people, but in the 'engagement' with the Qing people, they didn't take any advantage, this point, I'm afraid Lord Jin knows it, right?" Cui Yanghao asked rhetorically.

This also wants you to say that Jin Minquan despises the other party very much, if the Ming Kingdom Heavenly Army is extremely powerful, he would have eliminated you rebels and traitors at the request of His Majesty King Li, where is it your turn to be on this Yin'an Palace at this moment, there are five people and six people.

"And the 'engagement' between the new army and the Qing people is invincible, and the emperor of the Great Qing Kingdom has decided to marry Princess Meilan, who is the most beloved under his knees, to our general at the beginning of the 'spring' next year!"

Cui Yanghao reminded lightly, look, do you think that the Ming army, which is more bullish, was made a mess by the more bullish Qing army, and this even more bullish Qing army, when it meets our new army, it will stop eating directly, the emperor of the people, even the 'daughter' was sent out, do you want to compare?

"Forty thousand?" A trace of sadness flashed in Li Cong's eyes, don't say 40,000, even 10,000 people like this, he can't handle it, 40,000 people gather in Haizhou, he has nothing to feel except sadness.

"Haizhou to Kaesong, but a day's journey, the army arrives in the morning and evening, and as soon as Kaesong is lost, the north of Seoul is all the way!" Cui Yanghao said loudly: "For the sake of His Majesty King Li's people, His Majesty King Li should also have a decision!" ”

"You're here to persuade you to surrender?" Li Cong's voice was as emotionless as ever, "Aren't you afraid that I will kill you on the spot to boost my morale?" ”

"I'm afraid, Your Majesty King Li, but I'm even more afraid to see the Korean people displaced and countless people die in this military disaster!" Cui Yanghao is righteous and awe-inspiring.

Li Cong was silent, his eyes drooped, he didn't know what to think, and in the hall, for a while, the atmosphere became extremely depressing.

In the middle of the sound, Li Cong slowly raised his head and asked Cui Yanghao, "General Pingyuan, what do you have to say to this king?" ”
