Eighty-one, self-defeating
Zhang Wenrong shook his head: "You don't know, I'm from Shengguo." Emperor Shengguo was a madman who went on a campaign from the time he ascended the throne. There is no one to cultivate the land, and the land has long been barren. He fed his war with war, and no one survived wherever he passed. He does not allow the voice of opposition, and if there is one, he will kill. β
Wenchen was killed, and only her Zhang family was left to support her. But that madman didn't plan to let go of the Zhang family, and first arrested her and destroyed the priest's power with drugs.
During the time of being tortured, Zhang Wenrong thought countless times that he would not be able to live.
When Huailin rescued her, some things had reached the point where they could not be reconciled. The madman became even more crazy and ordered her to be taken into the palace as a concubine.
The Zhang family was silent. Zhang Wenrong remembered that on the day of the recitation of the holy decree, none of his grandfather, father, elder brother, or younger brother received the decree of thanksgiving. As if they had not heard the official's decree, they knelt motionlessly on the ground.
Finally, she received the decree and thanked the Holy Grace.
At that moment, Zhang Wenrong made up his mind.
Use yourself to keep the Zhang family.
Unexpectedly, the most obedient brother and Huailin teamed up to drug her and send her away.
It turned out that at the moment when she made up her mind, the Zhang family also made a decision. Better die standing than live kneeling.
Zhang Wenrong knelt in the imperial study and confided everything.
She burst into tears: "I beg Your Majesty to let me go." β
Zhu Qinghong held his jaw with his hand and did not respond.
Demons are everywhere, abandoning farming, and fighting to feed war, which is simply self-defeating.
No matter how strong an army is, it is composed of one person. People need food and water to live.
When there are resources around, it is true that you can taste the sweetness of fighting by fighting. What about when resources are exhausted? Demons can't eat, what do so many people eat?
Cannibalism, or starvation?
"Not yet." Zhu Qinghong got up, "I think I'll meet him." See if he has three heads and six arms. β
"Your Majesty." Zhang Wenrong shook his head, "He saw that your country was full of rice and the people were rich, so he would inevitably have a heart of plunder." Your Majesty thinks twice. Do not bring death to the people because of me. I have involved many people, and I will never be able to implicate you again. β
Zhu Qinghong didn't want to say any more, and raised his hand lightly. Wei Wan stepped forward to help Zhang and ask for a look, and took the person down to appease him.
Not long after, Fang Youan sent a call: "Your Majesty, Emperor Shengguo has asked to meet you." β
"Bring him here." The corners of Zhu Qinghong's lips lifted lightly, "It doesn't matter how many people he brings." I don't think so. β
"Yes." Hanging up the call, Fang Youan looked at the man opposite.
Emperor Shengguo, wind chill.
"Your Majesty agrees with you. Please. Fang Youan turned sideways and moved out of the way.
The wind chilled and strode forward.
The guards behind followed, but Fang Youan didn't stop him. Back in Tianyang City, ready the carriage and they continued to set off.
From Tianyang City, stop and go for seven or eight days, pass through Yingling City, and arrive at Tianchong City. Along the way, Feng Han saw patches of green rice fields, and his eyes were hot.
The other party made no secret of it, how could Fang Youan not see it. He was disdainful, and he didn't know who would hit whom in the end.
On the day of arrival, Zhu Qinghong did not meet him immediately, but hung it for two or three days.
In the meantime, they walked around the city.
Food, a constant supply of food. Feng Han and the accompanying guards smiled from the bottom of their hearts.
On the day of the reception, Zhu Qinghong tried his best to choose something that was not delicious on the menu. However, to be included by her, it must be food.
Finally, choose a few of the most ordinary dishes. In the small courtyard, Wei Wan, Zhang Wenrong, and Fang Youan accompanied.
"Please." Zhu Qinghong sat down with a smile, "I don't know what you like to eat, so I chose a few dishes at random." β
Feng Han sat down and poured a glass of wine first. The evil smiled and hooked his finger at Zhang Wenrong: "Come here." β
Zhang Wenrong didn't want to go over, and he didn't want to cause trouble to others. Just as she was about to take a step, Zhu Qinghong spoke: "Now she is an official of the Yunhong Dynasty. Emperor Shengguo summoned him and came and went, didn't he take me seriously? β
Surprised in his heart, Zhang Wenrong didn't know when he became an official of the Yunhong Dynasty.
Feng Han raised his eyes and looked at Zhu Qinghong: "Zhang Wenrong is the emperor's concubine." If you don't let go, do you want the two countries to go to war? With your little strength, do you have a chance of winning? β
"If I hand over the officials of the DPRK and China today, it will not be cowardly and incompetent." Zhu Qinghong poured wine, "So, I won't let go." β
Feng Han's eyes sharpened, and he put down the wine glass heavily: "Women are really emotional." Do you know the consequences of not letting go? β
"What consequences?" Zhu Qinghong didn't care, "Women are emotional. As the king of a country, what is it for you to fight for a woman? I tell you clearly, in the territory of the Yunhong Dynasty. No one wants to take her. β
"Since we can't talk about it, we don't need to talk about it anymore." Feng Han smiled bloodthirsty, "You're going to pay for it." β
"I'm waiting." Zhu Qinghong raised his hand, "Don't send it if you go slowly." Fang You'an watched them appear. β
"Yes." Fang Youan made a gesture of invitation.
The wind was cold enough, and he glanced at Zhu Qinghong fiercely, and then glanced at Zhang Wenrong and turned around to leave.
Until he couldn't see them, Zhang Wenrong Fang breathed a sigh of relief.
Wei Wan covered her lips and chuckled, what is there to be afraid of.
"Why do you have to provoke a war?" Zhang Wenrong looked at Zhu Qinghong with complicated eyes, "Can you not fight?" β
Zhu Qinghong calmly poured himself a drink: "No." He has a crush on our food, and I have something to look at. β
"You're fighting a tiger." Zhang Wenrong persuaded bitterly, "He is a madman and will never die." You don't have to fight hard. β
"That's very good." Zhu Qinghong asked Ono to take the dishes on the table to feed the dogs, "No need to say more." You're just a trivial excuse. Whether you go back or not, he will go to war against us. Since there is a war, I have no reason. β
Zhang Wenrong held on to the last glimmer of hope: "No, what she wants is me." I go back, maybe I can stop her. β
"Don't be stupid, how can a woman's substantial interests be important. He wants you, but you can make him get great benefits. Zhu Qinghong stood up and entered the house with a wine jug, "Don't think about what you don't have." You can't stop him, and you can't stop me. β
Wei Wan took Zhang Wenrong's arm: "Okay, Miss Zhang." It's not our turn to worry about these things. Go play. β
However, Zhang Wenrong had no thoughts and was always depressed. Wei Wan couldn't, let her go.
Don't just run.
Border.
Fang Youan sent a group of people out of the wind cold.
Feng Han turned his head, his eyes full of ambition.
"Zhang Wenrong is indeed the emperor's lucky star." He laughed, "Find such a good country for the emperor." β
"Congratulations to the emperor, congratulations to the emperor." The guards bowed. Feng Han laughed arrogantly: "Heaven helps the emperor." β
This appearance fell in Fang You'an's eyes, and was sent to the twelve guards of the two armies and Zhu Qinghong.
After reading it, everyone didn't know what to say. Self-confidence is a good thing, arrogance is not advisable.
There are always people in the world who think that the world revolves around them. There is no self-knowledge.
Tianchong City, Imperial Palace.
Zhu Qinghong didn't want to give Feng Han a chance to mobilize the army, so he immediately ordered the whole army.
In this battle, Gao Chen and Yingcai went out.
Dong Siqing and Dong Sishuang stayed in the rear. The Twelve Guards led the army and marched towards Shengguo in three teams.
Zhu Qinghong led the team, Su Rui led the right team, and Fang Youan led the left team. The three teams quickly assembled, and set off immediately after a day's rest.
Zhang Wenrong rushed over when he heard the news: "Your Majesty, please take me." That's my country, and I can't stay out of it. β
"Of course you want to go." Zhu Qinghong patted her on the shoulder, "You are the indispensable focus of this battle." β
"Is there really no room for recovery?" Zhang Wenrong couldn't bear to say, "When the two countries are at war, it is always the people who suffer the most. β
Zhu Qinghong smiled: "There is a way to fight without blood. It's up to you to see if you're willing to do it. β
"What's the method?" Zhang Wenrong asked eagerly.
If you can really fight without blood, if you can minimize the damage......
"You are the daughter of the Zhang family. The Zhang family would rather self-destruct than let you enter the palace and suffer humiliation. Zhu Qinghong looked directly at her, "It proves that the Zhang family cares about you and will listen to you." The Huailin in your mouth is a military attachΓ©. He can save you, and he has some power in his hands. β
"Sang Xu, his name is Sang Xu, the word is Huailin." Zhang Wenrong said gently, "He is the youngest general in Shengguo." β
"Look, you're not at the end of your rope." Zhu Qinghong hooked his lips, "The family is intertwined, and the emperor can't get rid of it." Sangxu is armed with force, if you join forces. Are you still afraid that you won't be able to overturn that mad emperor? It was you who repeatedly backed down and made him more and more unbridled. β
Tyranny, there are beneficiaries, and naturally there are victims. Connecting all the victims to form a new force.
Not to mention 100% winning, there are chips to fight against it. Being soft-hearted and not allowing the people to suffer from the flames of war will only make the situation even more out of control.
The so-called mercy is not in charge of the army, this is the truth.
Strip the rotten parts of a great country and collect a country full of holes.
It's obvious which is better or worse. As a monarch, he has always known how to maximize the interests of his country.
Zhu Qinghong turned over his hand and took out a teacup and poured a cup of tea: "It's so far." You should know that if you don't give it a go, you will only be devoured. Whether you win or not, you just don't want to sit still. I am willing to help you for mutual benefit. β
Zhang Wenrong's heart was very confused, and he couldn't make a decision for a while. She took the teacup: "Your Majesty, please let me think about it." β
"Before you go to war, you just want to." Zhu Qinghong looked at her calmly, "After the war, I can't help you." β
Nodding, Zhang Wenrong took a sip of tea, and retreated with a heavy heart. Zhu Qinghong poured tea for himself and shook his head: "Although I have the people in my heart, I am indecisive. Hopefully, she will grow through this. Otherwise, the Zhang family may decline. β
[Master, Sheng's state-owned minerals have been detected. The other party was very tightly guarded, and I finally found something. γ
"Isn't it a state priest." Zhu Qinghong drank all the tea in one gulp, "Dare to be presumptuous in front of me, I'm tired of being crooked." β
[Shengguo feeds the war with war. In addition to minerals, there should be a lot of gold, silver and jewelry. Just flooded the treasury. γ
Zhu Qinghong shook his head: "How can I care about gold, silver and jewelry." It's just put it there, and don't take it for nothing. β
γβ¦β¦γ
Ono complained.
[Hello hypocrisy. γ
"Passing the prize." Zhu Qinghong opened the map and designated Tianyang City as a temporary grain depot.
The baggage of the army was transported to Tianyang City first, and they only needed to bring a small amount of food with them when they went to battle. The battle is either a quick one, or they don't need to do it at all.
