cabinet.
When King Chen arrived, he could see that all the ministers had gathered together, and King Jin was also here.
King Chen sat down, twirled his Buddhist beads and said calmly: "Chen Renmei has offended the Shang clan envoy and has been successfully captured. She can give an explanation to the Shang clan."
"not enough."
Du Beiyuan's expression was solemn, with a cold look in his eyes. Whether Dou Changsheng did it intentionally or not, the prince's good situation was all ruined because of Dou Changsheng.
It is such a pity that a strong man like Chen Renmei did not die on the battlefield, but died in the struggle. Du Beiyuan was really disgusted with Dou Changsheng who caused this consequence, and he spoke bluntly:
"Chen Renmei was just an innocent disaster, and the culprit was Dou Changsheng."
"What do you think, General?"
Yang Kaitai's tall and burly body was like a wild bear, lying on the ground. At this time, he lazily said: "Chen Renmei is wrong, Dou Changsheng is also wrong."
"But these two alone were enough originally, but now the Shang clan is taking the initiative to leave Shili Village."
"The other party is a god and demon. The two of them alone are not enough. If a god and demon takes the initiative to put pressure, he must give the other party a satisfactory attitude."
Lu Tianen said leisurely: "The will of a god and demon is very important, not to mention that this Shang clan can serve as an envoy in the early Yuan Dynasty. He has a respected position in Wanbao Pavilion and is one of the seven owners of Wanbao Pavilion. "
"The Mysterious City established in Tianwai Tianzhong is famous among all races. In the early Yuan Dynasty, it was able to influence the Shang Clan's attitude towards the Human Race. This time, two disciples died one after another. They must hate the Human Race deeply."
"If he is not given a price to explain his past, he will definitely start to lobby the gods and demons of the Shang clan after returning to the Shang clan, and he will definitely join the anti-human alliance by then."
"The Shang Clan does not need to take the initiative to attack us. As long as many markets and commercial capitals are closed in Tianwaitian, and the human race is classified as an enemy and prohibited from entering, most of our human race's foundation in Tianwaitian will collapse."
"Without the merchant clan's transit, trade with all clans will be reduced by half."
King Jin frowned and objected: "The Shang clan is already in a state of decline. They can bear such losses."
"We can't afford it, but the Shang clan can?"
Lu Tianen replied: "Of course the Shang Clan cannot, but races such as the Monster Clan and the Dragon Clan will naturally take the initiative to lift the restrictions on the Shang Clan, thus increasing their ties with the Shang Clan and binding the Shang Clan into their alliance."
"In this way, the strength of the human race will decrease sharply, and the alliance of the five races will add another race, and its strength will increase significantly. This will be a disaster for us."
Du Beiyuan sneered and said: "Dou Changsheng cannot be saved. Not only is this the leader, he may also become an official like me."
Du Beiyuan looked at everyone chattering, but he had no intention of following the official routine as usual, and went straight to the topic in one sentence.
Having said all that, it’s not just that Xiang Zhuang’s sword dance was intended for Pei Gong.
They want Chen Wang to become an official and resign as the head of the six sects.
He really has a huge appetite, and he needs to rely on one thing to make the two husbands step down, and then there are Xiao Tianyou, so there are three.
In a short period of time, one-third of the cabinet will collapse. This can be called a major shake-up.
All eyes were directed at King Chen. King Chen looked calm and confident. Facing the attacks from General Yang Kaitai and Secretary of Household Affairs Lu Tianen, he did not feel any strange. He slowly twisted the beads in his hand and watched everyone react. Look at yourself.
He spoke slowly: "The Shang Clan is actively exerting pressure. Naturally, we have to give the other party a satisfactory explanation so that the Shang Clan cannot use the situation as an excuse. If I fail to handle the case, I will take the initiative to write a letter to the Saint to resign and return home."
"It's just that Dou Changsheng is a young man after all. He may have been a little more urgent in handling the case. If it's not his fault, we still have to give him a chance. Let's dismiss him from office and seize the title this time."
King Jin raised his eyes and looked at King Chen. He was a little surprised by these words. Dou Changsheng was not an innocent person in this incident. The culprit of Mr. Du's words was well deserved.
At this time, King Chen wanted to protect Dou Changsheng, at the expense of his own official career. You must know that the Shang clan envoy had to explain to the early Yuan Dynasty that with Chen Renmei, a first-class martial arts warrior, and Du Xianggong, the Minister of Rites, it was already about there.
It is very difficult to capture King Chen. After all, the princelings are public enemies and they attack in groups. Mr. Du wants to become an official no matter what.
There is no love without reason in the world. King Chen, who has always been a Buddhist and ignores worldly affairs, has been acting as usual recently, but when it comes to Dou Changsheng, there have been several abnormalities. For example, in the last morning court, King Chen also supported Dou Changsheng. .
The two sides were involved a lot, and it could make King Chen give up this huge power. King Jin didn't think clearly for a while, but he took the initiative to agree and said: "It's enough to deprive Dou Changsheng of the title of Marquis of Chen, take back all the fiefdoms, and reduce his position to serve the people." .”
Gu Chen
"Such a punishment is severe enough, and it is justified for the Shang clan."
Dou Changsheng must be protected no matter what. Although Dou Changsheng did not say that he was doing things for himself, he believed that those who helped him were already his. King Jin must protect him. He still has this responsibility, otherwise everyone under his command would be I'm heartbroken, who else can work as seriously as Dou Changsheng.
"Dou Changsheng is the culprit. If we don't hand over such a person, how can we resolve the Shang clan's misunderstanding?"
The prince's voice sounded from outside the door. He had already opened the curtain and walked into the house. He looked at King Jin and said indifferently: "Dou Changsheng can avoid death, so Chen Renmei, who is just an innocent disaster, does not need to die. "
The prince's eyes were sharp, he looked around at all the princes, and finally looked at the King of Jin and said: "The heavy armor soldiers of Daliang are top-grade Taoist soldiers. The number of three thousand in full force now is enough to compete with the first-grade martial arts."
There is no need to say the rest of the words. King Jin also understood clearly that as long as Dou Changsheng died, the prince would definitely not fight. This high-grade Taoist soldier would fall into his hands, and Dou Changsheng would seize the wealth of the Xiao family. But the enemy's property also fell into his own hands.
After obtaining this high-grade Taoist soldier, you will get a private soldier without spending even half a penny.
King Jin's lips moved, and he wanted to speak several times to save Dou Changsheng, but every time he spoke, the words came to his lips. In the end, he was unable to speak, and he completely lost his voice.
Dou Changsheng has always vetoed a relationship with him and disliked him very much. He had no relationship with him at all. If he died, he would be dead. Besides, it was simply impossible to save Dou Changsheng this time.
King Chen wanted to protect Dou Changsheng with his official position as the leader of the six sects. This was impossible. Now the princelings wanted to kill Dou Changsheng.
Looking at Du Beiyuan's solemn expression, King Jin really shrank in his heart. This husband, who became an official because of Dou Changsheng, no longer concealed his hatred for Dou Changsheng in his heart.
Although the princelings have lost their most important pillar this time and their strength is greatly damaged, their crazy counterattack is also extremely terrifying. It is not directed at themselves, but against Dou Changsheng, which is a good thing.
Sacrificing Dou Changsheng in exchange for greatly damaging the princelings' power and obtaining Daliang's heavy armored troops was a great thing.
King Jin was silent, as if he were transparent. King Chen looked at this scene, his mouth curved into a sneer. King Jin, known as the wise king, was usually known for his benevolence and righteousness, but at the critical moment, he was still exposed. Out of character.
The Ji family is mean and ungrateful, and no one is an exception.
The prince is the lord of the East Palace and the crown prince of the Great Zhou Dynasty, and his words are of vital importance. Unless many ministers publicly refute and contradict the prince directly, the matter has already been decided.
The prince looked around, and no one spoke up for Dou Changsheng again. No one would openly contradict the prince. This was the prince's authority. The Great Zhou Dynasty had not yet collapsed, so this incident would never happen from beginning to end.
The prince looked bad, this time the loss was too great, and in order to appease King Jin, he even voluntarily gave up the heavy armored soldiers of Daliang, just to let Dou Changsheng die.
Dou Changsheng must die, this is what the prince thought after the accident. The princelings have suffered a great loss because of Dou Changsheng, so they must take revenge. This is more important than the king of Jin.
If you don't kill Dou Changsheng, how can you reunite the scattered people's hearts? You can pay some price for this, but you must also accomplish this.
Xu Changqing, who had been silent all this time, slowly spoke: "The envoy of the Shang clan has officially informed the court that he has returned to Shili Village and is preparing to leave at three quarters at noon."
"Chen Renmei and Dou Changsheng cannot be killed and will be handed over directly to the Shang clan envoys."
King Chen stood up slowly, twirled the beads and said calmly: "Leave this matter to me. They are two people from the Six Sects after all. I will send them off on their last journey. When the time comes, life or death will be decided." It depends on their destiny.”
Xu Changqing nodded and said: "Okay."
King Chen left directly, and the room fell silent for a while. This was something that no one expected. The situation turned upside down and something like this happened.
No one thought that Dou Changsheng was so bold as to kill the Shang envoy, because there was no gain at all for Dou Changsheng. Once the Shang envoy died, Dou Changsheng had to pay for his life.
That was the messenger representing the clan. He died for no reason. The consequences were too serious. After the news was spread back to the Shang clan, they didn't know what kind of uproar it would cause.
There must be something fishy about this scene, and one might even suspect that it was King Jin who did it.
Because the biggest beneficiary was the King of Jin, but there was no evidence. When the Shang clan was about to leave, they had to give an explanation to temporarily appease the Shang clan.
But this matter is not over yet, this case will continue to be investigated, and the person who takes the initiative this time will definitely be the prince, who will intensify the investigation.
Xu Changqing sighed in his heart, it was a pity that Chen Renmei, this person with the power to suppress the world, actually lost it. That Dou Changsheng was really a disaster star. It would not be a pity to die. No matter where he went, something would happen.
Da Zhou can't stand the tossing anymore. If the other party survives, Da Zhou will be tormented by him and collapse sooner or later.
The bones of the old Liang King were still cold, but Du Beiyuan was now dragged down, and even the prince's status was unstable.
