Three hundred and ninetieth chapters prepare to negotiate
Feng Minyi planned to burn everything and enter the palace alone.
However, when Feng Minyi told Wang Yiyao this idea, she was strongly opposed by Wang Yiyao. Although the two had originally planned to enter the palace the next day, the situation is unclear. Once King An is offended, maybe King An will turn against the emperor and the emperor.
When the queen takes action, she must remain calm and consider the long term.
"Yaoer, the queen is now controlled by King An and Princess An. We can no longer sit back and wait for death." Feng Minyi looked at Wang Yiyao with a sad face.
"Now that King An has not found us, he will not really attack the emperor and the queen." Wang Yiyao advised.
"But now that the life or death of the emperor's brother is uncertain, how can this make me feel at ease?" Feng Minyi held her head and sat on the stool.
Wang Yiyao walked over and grabbed Feng Minyi's hand, "But it's not an option for you to be so sad."
"So I went into the palace to find Prince An, negotiate with him, and ask him to release the emperor's brother and take me as a hostage." Feng Minyi broke away from Wang Yiyao's hand and stood up.
"Do you really think that King An only wants your life or the emperor's life?" Wang Yiyao looked at Feng Minyi and said sternly: "He wants both of your lives."
Wang Yiyao continued sadly: "What King An wants is the lives of both of you. In fact, it is the lives of you, me, the emperor, the queen, and our children. If you go now, it will be like throwing yourself into a trap."
"
Feng Minyi understood what Wang Yiyao said. He understood everything, but now that he cared about it, it would lead to chaos. King An had now taken control of the court, and the ministers had not gone to court for several days.
The most important thing is that King An held the emperor hostage, so that King An could hold the emperor hostage and order the princes.
Precisely because the emperor was held hostage, Gao Zhan could be ordered to do so, and as Gao Zhan was a person close to the emperor, even if the ministers were suspicious, they had no reason and could only entrust Gao Zhan to help the emperor find a medical doctor to treat him properly.
After all, the emperor is the king of a country. If the emperor falls ill and falls, all the mechanisms of the entire country will be paralyzed.
In fact, Feng Minyi was not only worried about the emperor's comfort, he was more worried that the emperor would not be able to go to court, the whole country would be paralyzed, and the people of Liming would be the ones who suffered.
Moreover, if it is not resolved in time, it will take a while for the country to regain its former vitality, and during this period, it is likely to be attacked by neighboring countries.
Maybe the enemy country has been recharging its strength, but their country is suffering from internal and external troubles, and the people are in dire straits. No matter who steps in now, something may happen.
"Then, can I just sit back and wait for death now? How can I capture us when Prince An and the others find us?" Feng Minyi was a little irritable and yelled at Wang Yiyao.
Wang Yiyao understood that Feng Minyi was grumpy because she was under too much pressure and worried, so she didn't take it to heart.
He just grabbed Feng Minyi's hand and comforted softly: "I understand that you are feeling irritable now, but what if we enter the palace rashly and King An jumps over the wall and hurts the emperor and the queen?"
"Yao'er, I really don't know how to make a long-term plan. I'm looking outside now. I don't know what kind of life the emperor spends in the palace every day." Feng Minyi said a little tiredly.
"If we can't save the emperor, the whole country will have no monarch. The longer it goes on, the longer it takes. I'm very afraid that our country will eventually become a country with internal and external troubles, and the people are in dire straits."
Seeing Feng Minyi in such pain, Wang Yiyao felt a little distressed in her heart, but she couldn't let Feng Minyi enter the palace hastily.
You can't just throw yourself into a trap and go and die.
"I understand, I understand what you said, but we should really recharge our batteries now, gather the army, and then go to fight with King An."
Wang Yiyao said while comforting Feng Minyi.
Feng Minyi could also understand what Wang Yiyao said, but he still wanted to negotiate with King An so that King An could remember the brotherhood and look back in time.
Feng Minyi thought calmly and said, "Yao'er, what you said is all right, but I still want to negotiate with King An first. If it doesn't work out, I will come back and we will have a long-term plan and recharge our batteries."
?"
Wang Yiyao looked at Feng Minyi's eyes full of pleading and had no choice but to agree.
"Okay, let's give it a try tomorrow. If it doesn't work, let's recharge our batteries. Remember, we must come back intact. Do you understand?"
"I understand, Yao'er."
Late at night, when Wang Yiyao had gone to bed, Feng Minyi went to the study and summoned Sima Ji.
"See the Pavilion Master." Sima Ji saw the ceremony and had no choice but to stand and wait for Feng Minyi's arrangements.
"Sit." Feng Minyi said one word first.
After Sima Ji sat down, Feng Minyi continued: "The king asked you to gather the army, how about it?"
"Back to the Pavilion Master, all the troops that the Pavilion Master led in the battle have been recalled, but the number is not yet certain." Sima Ji said truthfully.
"How much can we be sure of?" Feng Minyi asked, frowning.
"Reporting to the Pavilion Master, it's less than 30,000."
Sima Ji felt the sudden gaze from Feng Minyi and trembled a little.
"Why are there so few?" Feng Minyi frowned into a frown.
"Back to the Pavilion Master, the previous Pavilion Master has not led the army in recent years. Some of the veterans who followed the Pavilion Master back then have disarmed and returned to their fields because the later generals were dissatisfied with them."
"For those who are not sure how many people there are, how many are there?" Feng Minyi stroked her brows and continued to ask.
"Back to the Pavilion Master, the number of people who can't be confirmed...can't be confirmed is about 20,000." Sima Ji was frightened by Feng Minyi's dull expression and stuttered.
Feng Minyi fell into deep thought. The total number of people was only about 50,000. Even if the number of people in Xuanji Pavilion was added, it was only 80,000.
"You go down first." Feng Minyi frowned and dismissed Sima Ji.
"Yes, I am resigning."
After Sima Ji left, Feng Minyi continued to think about the problem just now - he only had 80,000 sergeants in his hands now, and it was still unclear how many people King An had in his hands.
But one thing that is certain is that King An's army must also be stationed outside the city. After all, a large number of troops have entered Beijing, and there is no way there will be no news at all.
In this case, it is best to talk to King An first. If we can reach an agreement, it will be the best. If we cannot reach an agreement, we will have to use force to solve this incident.
Afterwards, Feng Minyi took out a pen and paper, compiled a letter, and wrote to King An, asking him to meet at the city gate at noon tomorrow to negotiate alone.
"Here comes someone." As soon as he finished speaking, someone knocked on the door, and then Bai Yu walked in.
Today it happens to be Bai Yu's turn to keep vigil.
