The main fighting faction was mainly military generals. One of the generals stood up and said:
"The main force of the Qin army has retreated. Now is the best time to send troops to Ruluo Xizhou. The opportunity must not be missed." The prince's division listened to their words quietly to see what King Ruluo Nan had in mind.
King Ruluo Nan turned his gaze to the prince's master and said:
"What's the plan for the foreign envoy?" The prince's master stood up and said:
"The foreign ministers agree to send troops." The nobles of the royal palace and some civil servants stood up and attacked the prince's division, saying:
"King Ruluo Xi has become a prisoner of his subordinates. Qin's military strength is strong. Our Ruluo Nanzhou is already showing signs of resurgence. If we send troops to Ruluo Xizhou, we will offend Qin. Qin will definitely send troops to Ruluo Nanzhou. Ruluo Nanzhou The continent is involved in a great war, and the people are tired and the country is exhausted. This is harming our Ruluo Nanzhou." The Prince's Master confronted him and said:
"It is very dangerous for you princes and ministers to only think about comfort and enjoyment without thinking about war, and you do not know that you are born in sorrow and die in peace and happiness. If you dare not send troops because you are afraid of Qin, this is a sign of weakness. If you blindly show weakness and give in, if Qin What will happen to you when the army attacks? Cut off territory to pay compensation. Cut off five cities today and fifteen cities tomorrow in exchange for a short-term peace. What will your Majesty do? Cutting off cities and seeking peace to satisfy Qin's endless desires is like putting out firewood with firewood, and the war will eventually burn out. The entire Ruluo Nanzhou. Ruluo Xizhou and Ruluo Nanzhou have always been on good terms with each other across the sea. This is the friendship between brothers. If a brother is in trouble, but the king does not rescue him because he is afraid of the power of Qin, then If you are in trouble in Ruluo Nanzhou, who will come to rescue you? The Qin State has less than 300,000 troops stationed in Ruluo Xizhou and its southern continent, and the main force has returned to the Qin State. The Qin State is far to the north. , thousands of miles away from Ruluo Xizhou and beyond reach. This is the best time to send troops to Ruluo Xizhou. It will be difficult to capture it once the Qin reinforcements arrive and lay down a heavy defense. The war situation is changing rapidly, and the opportunity to favor the fighter should be immediately Send troops to gain the upper hand and defeat the enemy. Please seize the opportunity, your Majesty, the opportunity is fleeting, so don’t miss the opportunity because of this!” After hearing the Taizi Shi’s remarks, King Ruluo Nan looked happy and said:
"It makes sense. What objections do you have?" The princes and ministers were speechless, so they instigated the civil servants. These civil servants also looked at the royal family's face and followed suit.
A civil servant stood up and said:
"Your Majesty, cultivating the people is the way to strengthen the country. Cultivating the people and raising soldiers will make the country rich. War is about money and food. If the money and food are not enough, the country will be in crisis. Please be careful when using soldiers. Soldiers are the life and death of the country. A big plan." The prince's master glanced around and laughed wildly.
When these royal families saw this, they glared angrily and said:
"You, an envoy, dare to roar in the court." He then faced King Ruluo Nan and said:
"Your Majesty, the foreign envoy is contemptuous of the king. Please punish him for the crime of contempt of the king." The prince's master stood in the court hall, raised his head and said:
"If you want to impose a crime, there is no reason to punish you for speaking out to the king without any reason. There are only flattering ministers, and what upright minister dares to speak frankly to the king?" He then reprimanded these royal families and civil servants, saying:
"You only seek high-ranking officials and generous salaries, comfortable enjoyment and your own noble status, without considering the interests of the country. Don't you feel guilty? Even if the nest is overturned and the eggs are intact, when the country is in danger, you can still do it. Do you enjoy that kind of status? You are short-sighted and can only see the glory of a country but cannot see the potential crisis of a country. This is a symbol of corruption. I swear not to associate with mediocre people. This is what a gentleman does and what he does not do. Ear?" These royal families were completely angered and said:
"You dare to insult us, come ants, capture this rebellious minister." The red-headed ant rushed out, trying to draw its sword, and said:
"Let me see who of you dares to be rude to sir." His eyes were wide open, and no one dared to step forward. The royal family was frightened back, and King Ruluo Nan was also shocked and couldn't speak for a long time.
The prince's teacher said:
"They don't dare to do anything to me? Don't be rude and get out of here." The red-headed ant then retreated. King Ruluo Nan said:
"Let me think about it, this is a national matter, I have to be cautious." The royal family stood up, glanced sideways at the prince's division, then looked at King Ruluo Nan, and said:
"Your Majesty, the foreign minister is rude, please punish him for his crime." King Ruluo Nan said:
"The speaker is not guilty. I will retire from the court." King Ruluo Nan was so frightened that his legs became weak and he did not dare to stand. He could only sit and wait for the civil and military officials to leave first. He was helped up by the eunuch. There were beads of sweat on his forehead. Wiping the cold sweat on his forehead, he walked towards the harem.
There are green towers and high pavilions, with dragons and phoenixes dancing on the eaves, and small springs surrounding them. Behind the rockery are thousands of red-walled palaces, hidden in the secluded forest.
Thousands of purples and reds bloom on the branches, waiting for spring. King Ruluo Nan came all the way to find her. The queen's palace was decorated with jewels and jewels, and the red door was ajar, waiting for the king's arrival.
There are so many deep palaces and courtyards, and how many people with haggard faces sit alone in empty rooms. It is rare to see the king once in half a year, but they have this vain beauty.
The sky is getting dark, the full moon is alone in the horizon, and there is loneliness in the sky. If these concubines are blessed by the king and give birth to a boy one night, they can fly on the branches and become phoenixes. What an honor. Competition for favor in the harem is commonplace.
"Queen, queen," a eunuch rushed in to pay homage. The queen walked out of the bead curtain and said:
"What's the matter?" The eunuch looked up and said:
"The king is coming to Bichen Palace tonight." The queen was overjoyed and said:
"Aijia received it." Then he entered the curtain, sat in front of the dressing table, looked left and right, asked the maid behind him, and said:
"Look at my headdress, there are still flaws in my makeup." The maid behind her said happily:
"Your Majesty, it's perfect." He took out a few more hairpins and asked:
"Which one is most suitable for the Ai family?" The maid picked out one and said:
"This is most suitable for the empress." The queen turned her head back, then turned back to stare at the beaded hairpin, and said:
"On Aijia's birthday, the king gave it to Aijia and put it on his head himself." The maid catered:
"So this is of great commemorative value." The queen handed the hairpin to the maid behind her, and the maid put it on the queen's head.
King Ruluo Nan entered the queen's palace. The queen came out of the curtain and knelt to greet her, saying:
"I respectfully welcome your Majesty." King Ruluo Nan stepped forward and said with a sad look on his face:
"I'm tired, queen. Please lie down." The queen stood up and accompanied the king into the bead curtain. The maids and eunuchs all exited and closed the palace door.
The queen after entering the curtain said:
"Your Majesty has been working hard on state affairs all day long. It is better for me, my concubine, to undress your Majesty." At this moment, the eunuch stood outside the palace gate and said:
"Your Majesty, the envoy is standing outside the palace gate asking for an audience." Feeling disappointed, he said without getting tired of the trouble:
"We are here to persuade the ants to send troops again." The queen ant said to the outside of the curtain:
"Let's just say that the king has rested. If you have anything to discuss, we can discuss it in the court tomorrow." The eunuch withdrew, faced the prince's teacher, and said:
"Your Majesty has rested. If you have anything to say, let's discuss it in the court tomorrow." The prince's master was about to force his way in, but the eunuch blocked him and said:
"This is the queen's palace, foreign ministers are not allowed to enter." The prince's master angrily said:
"Military affairs are related to the country's major plans. Are you able to take on such a big thing?" The eunuch entered again and said:
"Your Majesty, it's not good, the envoys are trying to break into the palace." King Ruluo Nan walked out of the bead curtain and said helplessly:
"Arrange it in the imperial study room of the aunt, waiting for the aunt." The eunuch led the prince's master into the royal study to wait. Later, King Ruluo Nan walked in, and the prince's master came forward and knelt down, saying:
"The foreign minister is here to pay his respects to the king." King Ruluo Nan walked up and sat cross-legged in front of the desk and said:
"Foreign envoy Ping Shen." The prince's master then sat aside and King Ruluo Nan said:
"What do you mean when a foreign envoy comes to the palace late at night?" The prince's master looked up at King Ruluo Nan and said:
"The foreign minister is here to invite the king to send troops to Ruluo Xizhou. This opportunity cannot be missed, and it will never come back." King Ruluo Nan was a little embarrassed about this matter, so he hesitated and said:
"I also want to send troops, but I have to take the ministers' face into consideration when sending troops." The prince's master said:
"A king is not influenced by powerful ministers, and his principles are arbitrary. Peace is not permanent, but is fought through war. Princes compete for hegemony, heroes fight for chaos, and there is no king who is not fought through war, but in exchange for the people living and working in peace and contentment, a general The result is a thousand bones. If it is controlled by powerful ministers, then the royal power will be weakened. Are there many examples of ministers who commit regicide? How to control the ministers depends on the king's methods. The king must not be careless." This said to King Ruluo Nan. His heart was gone, his blood was boiling, he slapped his hand heavily on the desk, stood up and said:
"Tomorrow we will send troops to Ruluo Xizhou. Your Majesty will lead an army of 1.8 million soldiers to attack Ruluo Xizhou. General Ma Liang will be the deputy general and Dr. Boyi will be the supervisor." The prince's division stood up and walked out, knelt down and looked up, saying:
"The king is wise." The next day, King Ruluo Nan, wearing a seven-star robe and a royal crown on his head, walked up the pedestal and entered the palace hall.
All civil and military officials knelt down and bowed three times and shouted:
"My king has a long life without borders, my king has a long life without borders." King Ruluo Nan ascended the throne, turned around and said with his long sleeves flowing:
"Everyone is at peace." All civil and military officials stood up and looked up at him. King Ruluo Nan sat down and said:
"We have decided to send troops to Ruluo Xizhou." The royal family and some of its civil servants stood up and said:
"Your Majesty, you have to think twice!" King Ruluo Nan looked down at these officials with firm eyes and said:
"I have thought twice and made my mind up. There is no need for you to persuade me." Then he stepped forward and said:
"This time the troops are dispatched to Ruluo Xizhou, led by Mr. Ma Liang as the deputy general, and Dr. Boyi as the supervisor. They will lead an army of 1.8 million people on land and water. They must capture Ruluo Xizhou within ten days." This move made the royal family restless. Stand out:
"Your Majesty." King Ruluo Nan swept away with his peripheral vision, took out the Emperor's Sword, and said:
"Sir, take the sword." The prince's master bowed forward and took the emperor's sword with both hands. King Ruluo Nan faced the ministers and said:
"Military orders are like mountains, and national laws are ruthless. Anyone who wants to deceive the military will be treated equally, no matter how noble or humble their status is. If they take the emperor's sword, they can exercise the power of life and death on behalf of the emperor. They will not be tolerated." The royal family will never tolerate them. He was stunned on the spot. Seeing that King Ruluo Nan's attitude was as hard as steel, any further persuasion would only deceive the soldiers' morale, so he had no choice but to retreat.
King Ruluo Nan leaned over to face the prince's master and said:
"But there is a condition." The prince's master said doubtfully:
"What are the conditions? Your Majesty, please tell me." King Ruluo Nan faced the civil and military officials and said:
"It is inconvenient for the termite prince to travel long distances, so he needs to stay in Ruluo Nanzhou." King Ruluo Nan wanted to keep the prince as a hostage, but he was worried about handing over so many troops to a foreign minister, so he took this reassurance.
The second is to encourage it to lead these soldiers in a bloody battle, only allowing victory but not defeat. It seems that the Southern King of Milk Snails has a very deep mind!
