Gao Shenghan also fell into great consternation because of these words.
Since the founding of the Beihai Empire, this is the first time that someone has mentioned the word ‘land ceding’.
For a moment, Gao Shenghan had mixed feelings.
For any dynasty in Dongdaozhenzhou, once words such as "ceding territory" and "seeking for peace" are mentioned in the official language, what it means is very clear - it is one of the signs of a dynasty turning from victory to decline.
one.
Has the situation in the empire become so decadent?
“To cede territory and seek peace is like putting out fire with firewood. If the firewood is not used up, the fire will never be extinguished.”
Lin Beichen sighed.
He still has some feelings for the Beihai Empire.
It is not a good sign to cede territory and seek peace. In the end, you may lose your wife and lose your troops.
This sentence instantly hit the hearts of Gao Shenghan, Lou Shangguan and others, and they felt that it couldn't be more fitting.
"Who will host this peace negotiation?"
Gao Shenghan asked.
Peace talks between countries involve many things.
The official positions of Feixue Shisha and the others cannot be said to be low, but they are obviously not high enough to be able to represent the Beihai Empire in peace talks with the Hai Clan and cede territory in humiliation to seek peace.
There is only one possibility.
This time, among the imperial envoys, there was someone with a higher status who had not yet appeared.
Feixue obviously guessed Gao Shenghan's thoughts for a moment, shook his head and said: "I also have an imperial edict here, which is given to the Ling Mansion."
Gao Shenghan's expression changed.
He immediately realized that there was a highly respected imperial official in the great city of Chaohui.
Although this old man has always behaved very low-key, since he came to Zhaohui City, he seems to have disappeared without any sense of existence.
But it was obvious that as long as His Majesty the Emperor was willing, he could immediately make this old man the center of attention for the entire empire to once again shine brightly - but the imperial edict that Feixue said at that moment was too heavy.
Gao Shenghan felt a little chilled.
Is the result of the game between the various forces in the imperial capital going to be that this old man, with his lifelong reputation, will endorse this peace negotiation that is a loss of power and humiliation to the country?
This is too cruel for a man who once made great achievements.
Lin Beichen, however, did not react at the first moment and said: "Ling Mansion, is it for Lord Ling? What's the matter?"
Gao Shenghan sighed and explained a few words.
"Let Mr. Ling preside over the peace talks?"
Lin Beichen finally reacted.
Mr. Ling Taixu has almost never appeared since he came to Zhaohui City.
Extremely no sense of existence.
Lin Da

I was so busy that I almost forgot about the old man.
did not expect……
"Those idiots in the Imperial Capital are eating people's food and not doing anything to help others. Doesn't this make Ling Laoxian take the blame?"
Lin Beichen immediately became dissatisfied.
Zheng Xianglong said with a sneer at the corner of his mouth, and said slowly: "You can't say that, this is also for the survival of the empire, personal honor and disgrace are nothing, haha..."
Snapped.
Lin Beichen whipped him.
After all, Zheng Xianglong was a seventh-level martial arts master, and his reaction was quite fast. He hurriedly dodged to avoid his face, but was hit by a whip on his back. It suddenly shattered, and his skin was torn apart. Cold sweat broke out on his painful forehead, and he roared: "
What are you doing, you..."
"If you don't know how to speak, just shut up."
Lin Beichen slapped the whip on the table, glared like a sword, and said, "I've seen you unhappy for a long time. The whip just now was a warning... If you say one more word, I will kill you."
Zheng Xianglong was so angry that he almost fainted.
Has he ever been bullied like this?
If it were anyone else, even a big boss above him in official rank, he would be angry and resist.
After all, the Zheng family is not vegetarian.
But the person in front of me is a heavenly being.
Still a stupid person.
Zheng Xianglong had no doubt that if he dared to say one more word, Lin Beichen would kill him without hesitation.
He really dares.
Zheng Xianglong, whose eyes were black with anger, endured the whip wounds on his body, snorted coldly, turned around and walked out of the hall.
"Who asked you to leave?"
Lin Beichen patted the table and said, "Sit down for me and listen to me honestly."
Zheng Xianglong almost broke his teeth and had to walk back again, changed to a chair farther away and sat down.
He had never been so humiliated in his life.
On the side, Feixue, the imperial envoy, squinted his eyes and watched all this without saying a word.
Lou Shangguan tilted his head, as if he didn't see all this at all.
Both of them felt as good as eating a big iced watermelon in the dog days of summer.
The so-called evil people still need to be punished by evil people.
Zheng Xianglong is also well-known in the capital as a vicious little devil. He was disgusted with the two of them all the way here, but when he met an unreasonable weirdo like Lin Beichen, he was clearly arranged.
Deserve it.
Lin Beichen used an excuse to vent his anger and felt a little better before continuing to think.
The Dog Emperor is going to cede territory.
Then I worked hard to build it in the great city of Zhaohui
(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)
Wouldn’t everything be in vain?
Yunmeng people, who have finally found a stable home, will have to live in exile again?
It's winter now, everything is frozen to death, and dripping water turns into ice. Tens of millions of people are evacuating from the big city. If they withdraw from Fengyu Province, how many hardships will they suffer along the way, and how many people will die?
Especially those refugees who have finally settled down, how many of them can make it out of Fengyu Province alive?
Can't bear it.
To destroy my leeks is to destroy my foundation.
No matter what, this great city of Chaohui must not be lost.
But, how to solve it?
He raised his middle finger, rubbed his eyebrows, and started thinking.
"Without further delay, Gao Tianren and Lin Tianren, can you two go with me to Ling Mansion to convey the imperial edict?"
Seeing that the atmosphere was somewhat silent, Feixue stood up slowly and said.
With the emperor's orders in hand, he could only act reluctantly.
Gao Shenghan nodded.
Lin Beichen said: "Okay, let's go together and see the excitement."
Several people stood up and walked a few steps. Lin Beichen paused, looked at Zheng Xianglong who was still sitting on the chair, and said: "Your fucking ass is stuck? Why don't you come together?"
Zheng Xianglong, like a little daughter-in-law who had suffered a lot from an evil mother-in-law, followed hurriedly in fear.
"Ha ha ha ha……"
Loushanguan couldn't help laughing out loud.
After leaving the main hall, an array master came over controlling a small flying boat.
Lin Beichen did not board the flying boat.
Instead, he rode his own white horse, surrounded by silver-white guards, and set off on the ground with a clatter.
After a stick of incense.
When he arrived outside Ling Mansion.
Gao Shenghan and others who were riding in the flying boat had arrived early and were waiting for him.
The Ling Mansion has obviously also received news of the arrival of the Imperial Envoy. Ling Junxuan and his wife, as well as more than ten people in the mansion, and some people who are not sure whether they are Chaohui City bosses or members of the Imperial Envoy, are already waiting at the gate.
Lin Beichen threw the reins to Gong Gong and stepped forward quickly.
"Haha, you are Lin Beichen? What a big arrogance, so many of us are waiting here for you, the son of a criminal."
A sinister voice came.
The speaker was a young man who looked to be eighteen or nineteen years old. He had fair skin and a delicate face. There was a sense of arrogance between his eyebrows. He looked at Lin Beichen with undisguised hostility and disgust in his eyes. It was obvious that he was
He deliberately said such provocative words.
Judging from his clothing style, he is not a sophisticated person.
