Why did the good news from Huangzhou come so quickly?
Is someone harming him?
Because it was he who suggested swallowing his humiliation and getting married yesterday, it was he who went to talk to the envoys from the Sirius Empire, and he was the one who just received the honor!
If Huangzhou's good news is received after the Sirius Empire replies, he will be the one to relieve the country's difficulties and share the king's worries.
At least this behavior is not criticized by others.
However, before the news of Huangzhou's good news came before the Sirius Empire could reply, he directly became a traitor and a weakling seeking glory.
Everything he did from yesterday to today is evidence.
The old thief Sima will definitely bite him to pieces.
Those censors who would even kick a dog when walking would not let him go.
It’s over!
All is lost!
Cold sweat broke out on Cao Wei's forehead.
now.
Emperor Xia finally came to his senses: "Quick, bring it to me!"
"yes!"
Eunuch Wei ran quickly to get the military report and presented it with a respectful expression: "Congratulations to your majesty, congratulations to your majesty, God bless Great Xia!"
Emperor Xia eagerly took the military newspaper and read it word by word. After reading the end, he finally breathed a sigh of relief and stood up from the dragon chair: "My dear friends, Marshal Li led his troops into Huangzhou. Annihilated Sirius' 200,000-strong army in one fell swoop, captured the eldest and youngest Princess Sirius alive, and rescued King Huangzhou and Princess-to-be Sima Lan who were trapped in the mountains!"
"My dear friends, we have won!"
"Twenty years of humiliation in a desolate state, one morning of snow!"
"This time, the people of Daxia will finally stop poking the imperial court's spine!"
at this time.
Cao Wei felt like there were stars in his eyes, and the world was spinning before his eyes.
Sure enough, the disaster star is not dead yet!
What a fucking nemesis!
at this time.
All the officials knelt down in unison: "Congratulations to your majesty, congratulations to me in the great summer. After twenty years of humiliation in the barren state, it finally snows today!"
"Uuuuuuuuuuuuu"
After congratulating many ministers, they were like shrews in the market, slumped on the ground and cried: "Twenty years of national humiliation in the barren state! One day of snow!"
"It's really not easy!"
At this moment, they were frantically venting their grievances.
Emperor Xia held the military report tightly, with a complicated look in his eagle eyes, and cast his gaze outside the palace door, as if he was seeing Huangzhou: "Xiaojiu, it's good that you're not dead!"
"Father is very surprised!"
"Old man, tell Ancestor Yin and Yang that there is no need to go to Huangzhou to collect Xiaojiu's body!"
Eunuch Wei had a look of embarrassment on his face: "Your Majesty, according to the report from the Imperial City Division, the ancestor of Yin and Yang disappeared directly with his people after leaving the imperial capital!"
"Now, we can't find any trace of him."
"With Patriarch Yin Yang's ability, it will be difficult for people from the Imperial City Division to find him!"
"However, the old slave also asked people to search for him. If he is found, let him return to the imperial capital."
The emperor nodded: "Then let's do it like this!"
"Place the Imperial City Division's spies into Huangzhou immediately. I want to know how the battle in Huangzhou was won?"
"I want to know how Xiaojiu escaped death this time?"
"From now on, I want to know Xiaojiu's every move, eight hundred miles away, one report every day!"
"yes!"
A strange light flashed in the depths of Eunuch Wei's eyes.
now.
Emperor Xia said in a deep voice: "Okay!"
"My dear friends, I am as excited as you are, but this is Tianxia Palace, not a vegetable market in the city, so don't pretend to be a shrew and vent!"
The ministers in the palace then silenced their voices, wiped away their tears and noses, and returned to the train!
Sima Jian came out and said: "Your Majesty, Marshal Li has made such a great contribution and should be rewarded more!"
Emperor Xia smiled and said: "That's right!"
"The matter of rewarding Marshal Li will be decided by the left and right prime ministers and the six ministries together!"
"At the same time, the rewards for the soldiers who went on this expedition should also be increased, and the pensions for the fallen soldiers should also be generous, so as not to chill the hearts of the soldiers."
"yes!"
suddenly.
Emperor Xia looked at the military report in his hand and frowned: "Why is there no casualty figures in the military report?"
The official of the Ministry of War blinked: "The soldier who delivered the good news said that only the Qingzhou cavalry lost three thousand elite soldiers, and the armies of other states lost less than a thousand people. Most of them were wounded, and only a few died!"
"Huh"
All the ministers took a breath of cold air.
How can this be?
Are the invincible Sirius cavalry just scarecrows left to be chopped down?
Cao Wei had a look of disbelief on his face: "Kill the two hundred thousand elites of Tianlang and capture their princesses. I will lose three thousand. Is this Li Jian the god of war who descended to earth?"
"This is too powerful!"
He did not dare to question Li Jian randomly.
Li Jian's success this time was in Sheji. Now, whoever dares to attack Li Jian will be attacked by the court officials.
What's more, Li Jian is one of our own!
Emperor Xia also had a shocked look on his face: "Instruct Marshal Li to report the details of the battle in Huangzhou. I want to see it!"
"At the same time, the left and right prime ministers discussed with the six ministries and sent people to Huangzhou to reward the three armies and verify their military achievements!"
"yes!"
Sima Jian and Cao Wei took orders at the same time.
Then.
Sima Jian said: "Your Majesty, I joined the Right Prime Minister Cao Wei and betrayed his country and sought glory. When the war was pending, he encouraged the king to seek peace with his enemies and relatives. He was a traitor and sought glory. He was not worthy of serving as our Right Prime Minister of Great Xia. .”
"I am writing to ask you to depose the right prime minister and choose a capable person to relieve the king of your worries!"
"I second the proposal!"
A large number of courtiers agreed.
In particular, the censors in red were all impassioned and slobbering: "I have reviewed the seven sins of Prime Minister Cao Wei on your right, and the evidence is as solid as a mountain. I ask for your Majesty's sanction."
One by one, the censors in red took out memorials from their sleeves. They seemed to be well prepared!
Cao Wei's heart sank.
Old thief Sima, it was indeed him who set up the trap.
However, he is not someone who can be manipulated by others!
Cao Wei knelt down and said, "Your Majesty, I was also worried about the country and the country yesterday, and I wanted to share your worries with Your Majesty."
Emperor Xia thought for a while and said: "Yesterday, the military situation in Huangzhou was defeated, and you didn't dare to say anything. The right prime minister shared your worries and proposed a marriage proposal. Don't blame him!"
"If he did something wrong yesterday, does that mean I was wrong too?"
The ministers quickly said: "I don't dare!"
Emperor Xia and Xini: "Since it's not the case, Huangzhou has won a great victory and the whole country is celebrating, so the marriage issue will no longer exist!"
"Don't blame Prime Minister Right anymore!"
"yes!"
Cao Wei finally breathed a sigh of relief.
At this moment, a voice came from outside the palace: "The envoy from the Sirius Empire asks for an audience!"
Emperor Xia said enthusiastically: "Xuan!"
Not long after.
The envoy of the Heavenly Wolf Empire walked into the hall arrogantly and greeted him arrogantly: "The envoy of the Heavenly Wolf Empire, Huyan Bailang, has met His Majesty the Emperor of Great Xia!"
"My emperor sent a message to ask this envoy to tell His Majesty the Emperor of Daxia that our Sirius Empire has sent 500,000 troops at the border. If Daxia does not release my eldest and little princess Sirius, and does not send the eldest daughter for marriage, Princess Xia, my army of five hundred thousand Heavenly Wolf will trample Daxia with its horses."
"What?"
There was silence in Tianxia Palace.
Sima Jian said coldly: "Sirius's presence is so majestic. Princess Sirius is a prisoner of war. If you want to redeem her, please negotiate with her with good words!"
"As for the princess's marriage, don't mention it. You are the defeated party, so what qualifications do you have to make such an rude request?"
The Heavenly Wolf envoy said arrogantly: "If His Majesty the Emperor of Daxia agrees to these two conditions, our Heavenly Wolf Empire will suspend its troops."
"If one less person refuses to agree, it will be a national war. I hope His Majesty the Emperor of Daxia will think twice!"
"Furthermore, we know that His Majesty the Emperor does not have a princess, so we want Prime Minister Sima's legitimate daughter Sima Mei to marry!"
The news of Huangzhou's successful arrival in the imperial capital made the whole city rejoice. When the Heavenly Wolf envoy heard about it, he directly asked for a meeting to threaten him and make conditions.
at this time.
All the ministers looked at Emperor Xia.
Your Majesty, will you agree to these two rude conditions?
