Chapter 411 The marriage partner cannot be Wu Yuan
For three days in a row, there was a lot of noise in the court.
In three days, Tianli Kingdom also made an offer that Dawu could not refuse.
The first is to pay a huge sum of money to express Tianli's apology for intervening in the three border cities. The second is to sign a peace treaty. During the reign of the leader of Tianli, both sides will not use a single soldier.
The last one was the marriage. As a sign of sincerity, the Tianli Kingdom promised to marry a princess to the Dawu Kingdom, but instead designated the marriage partner, Wu Yuan.
However, all these conditions are clearly stated that they will only be fulfilled if Tianba is handed over.
But I have to say that Tianli Kingdom is very sincere this time, and as a defeated country, it is also very conscious.
The conditions offered are also reasonable and reasonable in the eyes of the ministers.
But they didn't understand why Emperor Wu didn't nod for a long time. The messenger from Tianli Kingdom over there had become impatient, claiming that today was the last waiting period. If Dawu couldn't make a decision, Li Kingdom would go into full-scale war with Dawu that day.
They will fight until one side destroys the country.
Therefore, almost as soon as Emperor Wu sat down in the morning court today, many ministers were asking when Emperor Wu would make a decision and that it could not be delayed any longer.
Of course, there are a small number of people who, although they think the conditions proposed by Tianli Kingdom are reasonable, do not trust Tianli Kingdom and feel that they are ambitious and may not abide by the peace treaty.
Although under the leadership of Wu Yuan, Dawu fought a beautiful victory this time.
But anyone with a discerning eye knows that Wu Yuan was the main factor in why Da Wu was able to win.
But now, Wu Yuan has been deprived of everything, and he has made it clear that he will not interfere in political affairs from now on. In this case, it is even more necessary to guard against the ambitions of Tianli Kingdom.
Therefore, these people hope that Wu Yuan can stand up and negotiate with Tianli Kingdom. Only Wu Yuan has such a deterrent power to maintain the peace treaty.
Therefore, before Emperor Wu could speak, there was another quarrel in the court.
He also asked Emperor Wu to agree to Tianli Kingdom's request for peace as soon as possible, and also asked Emperor Wu to release Wu Yuan quickly so that Wu Yuan could shock Tianli Kingdom.
But no matter which one it is, the fundamental purpose of these people seems to be to hope that Dawu and Tianliguo can give up and make peace.
Emperor Wu glanced at the entire audience, and then gave Eunuch Su a wink.
Eunuch Su raised his horse and shouted: "Quiet!"
For a time, all the ministers' eyes were focused on Emperor Wu. They knew that Emperor Wu was finally going to make a decision.
"My dear friends, it is true that the Tianli Kingdom has a strong army and strong horses, and it is indeed necessary to guard against it. However, this time I came here with sincerity. But I feel strange, why the person they want to marry must be Wu Yuan? Who can give me some advice?
explain?"
When Prime Minister Wen heard this, he immediately understood what Emperor Wu meant. It turned out that he had not spoken for a long time just because he wanted to change the marriage partner.
Prime Minister Wen was not surprised by this. Emperor Wu didn't want to give Wu Yuan any chance to stand up.
"Your Majesty, I also feel that the marriage partner should not be the eldest prince. The whole world knows that the prince Tianba of Tianli Kingdom was captured alive by the eldest prince Wu Yuan, and the 50,000 troops of Tianli Kingdom were also under the order of the eldest prince.
After being completely annihilated, there is no doubt that the person Tianli Kingdom should hate the most is the eldest prince. Maybe this marriage is a conspiracy against the eldest prince."
The speaker was Hai Dongsheng, a high-ranking official of the first rank who was quite favored in recent days, and his status was only lower than that of Prime Minister Wen.
Seeing that the ministers were deep in thought, Hai Dongsheng continued: "Your Majesty must also be worried about the safety of the eldest prince, so he has been unable to make a decision. Your Majesty is really kind and benevolent."
This flattery made other people roll their eyes when they heard it, but they had no choice but to agree with it.
Emperor Wu also nodded with a sad look on his face, "It's a pity that my child doesn't understand my good intentions."
Hai Dongsheng took advantage of the situation and said: "It's only because the eldest prince has a weak character. I believe that your Majesty will understand your painstaking efforts in the future."
Prime Minister Wen finally understood. The two men singing harmoniously were not telling the ministers that Wu Yuan must continue to be imprisoned now, but it was not because he wanted to be imprisoned, but for Wu Yuan's good and to temper Wu Yuan's character.
In the eyes of Prime Minister Wen, it was simply ridiculous, but naturally he did not dare to say what he felt in his heart.
Even Prime Minister Wen had no choice but to agree: "Your Majesty, your Majesty, if this is the case, then we really have to have a good talk with the envoys of Tianli Kingdom. We can get married, but it cannot be with the eldest prince."
Prime Minister Wen followed Emperor Wu's wishes and said that in his opinion, there was indeed something fishy about the fact that Tianli Kingdom indicated that he wanted to marry Wu Yuan.
The two ministers took the lead and basically established the meaning of the entire court, and the ministers below also followed suit.
But at this time, Prime Minister Wen winked at a minister not far behind him, and the man immediately understood and stood up.
"Your Majesty, I have something to report."
Emperor Wu glanced at it and nodded, "What's the matter?"
"Your Majesty, in recent days, there have been many rumors among the people, saying that in order to seek peace, I, Dawu, abandoned the emperor and ignored the death of his teachers and students."
As soon as these words came out, there was once again a murmur of discussion in the court.
Obviously, they all heard about this matter, but no one dared to bring up such a treasonous thing.
In fact, what I said just now was very euphemistic, but what was circulated among the people was much harsher than this. Some said that Emperor Wu deceived his teachers and destroyed his ancestors.
Some people said that Emperor Wu bullied the weak and feared the strong, and there were even worse words.
Emperor Wu's face was also gloomy at this moment, and the minister seemed not to have seen it, and continued: "Your Majesty, although I don't know where this matter came from, Mr. Zhuri has been missing for many days now. If he really falls in Tianli Kingdom,
In our hands, we must get Mr. Zhuri back, otherwise it will affect His Majesty’s power.”
In fact, Emperor Wu never mentioned anything about Mr. Zhuri in the court.
Even these ministers only found out that Mr. Zhuri might have been arrested by Tianli Kingdom after hearing the rumors among the people.
But whether this is true or false remains to be discussed.
But there is no doubt that if the facts are true as the rumors say, then we have to take it seriously.
Emperor Wu was also roasted on the fire for a moment. At this time, his eyes were dark and terrifying. Eunuch Su on the side glanced at Emperor Wu, and then looked at the minister below who was speaking, with a meaningful arc at the corner of his mouth.
Eunuch Su concluded that this matter must be related to Wu Yuan.
"The envoy from Tianli Kingdom came to remonstrate, I want to ask for clarification!" Emperor Wu said coldly.
Prime Minister Wen also breathed a sigh of relief. Although everything was as expected by Wu Yuan, Prime Minister Wen still felt that it was a bit risky to be tough with Emperor Wu.
But now that the matter is over, we have to see what Tianli Kingdom says next.
