…
In fact, it stands to reason that if it reaches this point, there are nothing more than two outcomes for Che Shiguo.
I swear to live and die with the royal city, or to open peace talks with the city!
However, he didn't want to surrender, and he didn't want to resist desperately.
Surrender will destroy the majesty of the Cheshi royal family. How can we frighten the people in the country and cut their leeks in the future?
Resistance means death and no life. Nabu Liduo doesn't want to die like this. After all, his wealth has not been squandered. It would be a pity to die.
Therefore, in today's parliament, Fu Liduo was extremely irritable and kept roaring at the ministers to vent his inner fear and unwillingness.
"Just Bai Qi, isn't he just an executioner? I'm not afraid of him!"
"And you, all sitting in the hall with high-sounding honours, are you really that clean? Don't you have some solution to the problem?"
"I will never fail. I am the king of the Cheshi Kingdom and will never admit defeat!"
"You should stand in front of me and die for me!"
Listening to Buliduo's incoherent roar, the eyes of Minister Setia and Prime Minister Xubuli were filled with resentment. After exchanging glances with each other, Xubuli spoke first.
"Your Majesty, do you still love the people of Cheshi Country? The people of Cheshi Country have survived under the protection of successive kings. Are you willing to make some sacrifices for them?"
Hearing Xubuli's words, Nabuliduo was furious: "My prime minister, are you trying to persuade me to bow to those bandits and admit my mistake? It is impossible for the royal family of Cheshi Kingdom to bow to foreign enemies!"
Xubuli sneered in his heart and thought to himself, what you said is really nice. When the Mengluo people went to the west, you gave money and women, and crawled to their feet to recognize your father. Now you are tougher?
He rolled his eyes twice, lowered his head and said, "Your Majesty, the matter has reached a point where you can no longer resolve it by just bowing your head and admitting your mistake. The name of Bai Qi massacre has caused a sensation in all the countries in the Western Region. We really shouldn't provoke him."
Na Buliduo interrupted Xu Buli: "Provoke him? When did I provoke him! Xu Buli, please explain it clearly to me!"
Xu Buli said: "This matter itself is the fault of our country, Cheshi. We should not have secretly colluded with Guishang and provided false information to the Western Region Protectorate. Otherwise, this disaster would not have happened."
Na Fuliduo waved his hand without any regret: "Things have already happened, what's the use of talking about this! Besides, Guishang promised to give me 50,000 taels of gold every year as long as the plan succeeds. Why didn't I agree to them? Will the Han Dynasty give money?"
Xu Buli is a little desperate. At this time, you still care about those things outside your body. It is really hopeless.
Since you want to die, then go and die quickly. If the Cheshi Kingdom is destroyed, we can still live like a rich man and don't have to be buried with a fool like you.
In response, Xu Buli raised his hands and said, "Your Majesty, it's too late to say anything now. Since Your Majesty is unwilling to admit his mistake to Bai Qi, I have a way to get the best of both worlds, which may be able to resolve this crisis."
When Nabu Liduo heard the words, his eyes suddenly shone: "Master Prime Minister, tell me quickly, what is the solution?"
Xu Buli stood up and said: "Bai Qi's purpose is nothing more than to seek an explanation. As long as the king announces his abdication to the people in the city, this disaster of war will definitely be stopped outside Cheshi's city."
Hearing this, Na Buli almost hit Xubili with his golden staff.
His chest heaved violently with anger, and he asked sternly: "What did you say? Ask me to abdicate? Xu Buli, are you tired of living?"
Xu Buli replied calmly: "Your Majesty, after you abdicate and pass the throne to your son, Cheshi Kingdom will still be your world.
What you have lost is just an empty title of king. Apart from that, you have lost nothing. Your harem beauties and your wealth have not been lost at all.
Isn't this good? If you are not willing, you will not be able to appease Bai Qi's determination to massacre the Cheshi Kingdom. Please think again, Your Majesty. "
After Jing Xu Bu Li said this, Na Bu Li Duo was also a little shaken: "However, this way I will no longer be the king of the Cheshi Kingdom. Let me think about it carefully."
After saying that, Na Buliduo fell into deep thought.
But Xu Buli didn't give Na Buli much time to think about it. After looking at each other and Setia, he said casually: "I'm afraid the king is reluctant to give up the position of king. These humble ministers can understand."
As soon as he finished speaking, Sethia immediately picked up the conversation and said in a weird voice: "How could it be? The king is a person who values the overall situation. For the sake of Cheshi Kingdom, how can he care about the title of king?"
Xu Buli continued: "But the king is the king of a country, and it is difficult for ordinary people to accept it."
Setia: "No, our king is not an ordinary person, but a god descending to earth. He will not care about these vain titles."
Xu Buli: "Actually, even if the king doesn't want to, we ministers should support him. At worst, we can fight to the death with Bai Qi, and the king and his ministers can go to bliss together. That's not bad."
The two sang in harmony, and the double act quickly aroused the dull atmosphere in the palace. In the end, everyone knelt down in front of Bu Liduo and petitioned loudly: "Your Majesty, please abdicate for the future of Cheshi Kingdom!"
"Alas!" Nabu Liduo sighed heavily and said with great reluctance: "That's all, I just want to abdicate. I will immediately issue an imperial edict and pass the throne to the eldest prince. Hu Situo will succeed him as the new king of Cheshi Kingdom!"
"Your Majesty is wise!"
All the officials thanked him together, feeling as if they were surviving a disaster.
Xu Buli took the opportunity to order people to get paper and pen and wrote the edict.
After Bulidu reluctantly put the seal of King Chaushi, he slumped down on the throne and said to Xubuli: "Go and tell Hu Situo to go to the palace."
But just as Xu Buli took over the edict, a woman's shrill cry echoed outside the palace. When everyone looked, it was the concubine Bu Li Duo who ran to Bu Li Duo's feet with tears streaming down her face.
"Your Majesty, our son Justo fell into the lake and drowned!"
"What did you say!"
The sudden bad news shocked Nabu Liduo on the spot. He had just passed the throne to Hu Situo, and he died? This is too much of a coincidence!
When Xu Buli heard this, he was unusually calm, and he couldn't help but reveal a cunning smile as if his conspiracy had succeeded.
After a long time, Na Buliduo came back to his senses and said to Xu Buli: "Quick! Draft the decree again, I will change my title..."
Not wanting to finish his words, Xubuli said in a dark voice: "That's enough, Nabuliduo. Now, you are no longer the king of Cheshi Kingdom, and you have no right to decide the successor of Cheshi Kingdom!"
Na Buli was shocked and looked at Xu Buli with a look of disbelief on his face: "You, what did you say?"
Xu Buli turned around and said to the officials who were in a mess: "Everyone is quiet, please listen to what I have to say! That Bu Liduo, regardless of the safety of Cheshi's country, decided to go against the Western Region Protectorate.
This has led to today's situation. For the sake of the lives of hundreds of thousands of charioteers, I want to take this culprit to see Governor Bai and ask him to forgive our sins.
Are you willing to follow me and follow the big man and obey the command of Governor Bai? "
After a brief period of calm, Setia was the first to shout loudly: "Draw the culprit Na Buliduo to see Governor Bai!"
"Yes, he was the one who harmed everyone!"
"Tie him up!"
"If that's not enough, you've caused us misery!"
Soon, under the instigation of Xu Buli and Setia, all the officials rushed to the throne one after another, roughly pushed him to the ground, and tied him up tightly, even his eldest concubine was not spared.
"Come here, escort, escort..."
Nabu Liduo was struggling hard, but no matter how he called, the guards standing behind him turned a blind eye and watched everything in front of them quietly.
"Bastard, bastard!"
At this time, Na Buliduo finally understood that he had been tricked by Xu Buli and Setia. They had been bribed by Bai Qi, and they were waiting for today.
