Baili Hengtian saw that the minister was speaking with great energy and excitement, and Emperor Dongyue was also a little moved.
Hundreds of thousands of troops were buried overnight. Dongyue Kingdom will never have border troubles. This is what Dongyue Emperor hopes for in his dreams. He never thought that God would help him...
This is God's will.
So, he wanted to give an order to Baili Hengtian not to evacuate the people, but Baili Hengtian knelt down and said, "Your Majesty, I have ordered that we must do our best to evacuate the people! And I have also sent a letter to the Netherland Kingdom to tell them that there is
A natural disaster is about to cause an earthquake..."
As soon as Baili Hengtian said this, all the officials, including Emperor Dongyue, were shocked...
They couldn't believe it.
"Why?"
Emperor Dongyue asked.
The ministers even said that Baili Hengtian was collaborating with the enemy and betraying the country, saying that Baili Hengtian actually informed the Netherland Kingdom about the earthquake, which was a collaboration with the enemy and treason, and he was standing on the standpoint of the Netherland Kingdom...
Baili Hengtian had no choice but to explain, "I cannot win everything at the expense of the lives of the people in the north."
"This is God's will..."
The ministers said one after another, "We did not deliberately let the people die, but the earthquake buried the army of the Netherland Kingdom. This was God's will. It was God who allowed our Dongyue Kingdom to win. And we won easily without sacrificing our soldiers. Why?
Do you want to go against nature?"
Baili Hengtian, "Now that we know it, we can change it, and we can avoid more casualties. It's not God's will, but a man-made disaster..."
When the ministers saw what Baili Hengtian said, they completely quit. Does this mean that they deliberately let the people in the northern border die?
So, the ministers started arguing with Baili Hengtian...
Baili Hengtian's mouth could not stand up to the dozens of mouths of his ministers. His voice was suppressed, but he stood firm and did not flinch when he looked at Emperor Dongyue.
He said firmly, "Your Majesty, I know the meaning of everything I do! To protect the people in the north, soldiers have to go into battle, but soldiers are born for fighting, but the people are not! Soldiers should protect the people, right?
?”
"Then why do you need to notify the Kingdom of the Underworld?"
Emperor Dongyue couldn't understand.
Baili Hengtian, "Because they also have people. If they don't understand what happened, where they can guess, and they are half-doubtful, it will delay the rescue of more people."
"Are you the king of the North or the king of the underworld?"
Emperor Dongyue was dissatisfied with Baili Hengtian for the first time.
Baili Hengtian, "Your Majesty can punish me..."
The ministers also demanded that Baili Hengtian be punished... He must be punished. Baili Hengtian was too arrogant and arrogant.
He directly informed Xi Mingyan of such a big decision without even discussing it. Isn't this traitorous?
Hearing that the ministers were attacking Baili Hengtian as a "traitor", Emperor Dongyue was hesitant. This was his most valued son.
He also wants to hand over Dongyue Kingdom to Baili Hengtian. If he is convicted of "treason" and his life is not saved, how can he inherit the rule?
Moreover, Baili Hengtian would not betray the country. He did not believe that Baili Hengtian would betray the country.
Therefore, Emperor Dongyue showed his imperial majesty and suppressed the anger of his ministers.
He finally ordered Baili Hengtian to pay for his crime with his merits, thinking that he would spare his death because of his many meritorious deeds, and go back to face the wall and reflect on his mistakes.
Facing the wall and thinking...
After all this trouble, the ministers felt that although Baili Hengtian was the eldest son of the emperor, he had fallen out of favor. Before, they all thought that His Majesty wanted to depose the crown prince and make Baili Hengtian the crown prince. But with Baili Hengtian's move, he was destined to be short-lived.
I won't be able to become a prince anytime soon.
Those courtiers who supported Dongfang Xiao breathed a sigh of relief. They knew that Dongfang Xiao might be able to temporarily protect his position as the crown prince.
