With the sound of music and the attention of all the people, His Highness the King of Han, accompanied by all the civil and military officials, descended from the city gate tower and greeted the travel-worn messenger.
Before the messenger could stop his horse, the King of Han lifted up his robe, knelt in the dust, and said loudly: "My son Zhu Gaoxu, I respectfully wish my father to be in peace!"
All the civil and military officials behind the King of Han quickly knelt down and respectfully greeted the messenger.
The messenger's expression changed, he hurriedly got off his horse, helped the King of Han up and said, "Your Majesty, you have misunderstood. I am not an imperial envoy delivering the decree..."
"What?!" Seeing that he had made a big mistake, King Han's face turned red, but he couldn't blame others. Who made him so anxious that he was so confused?
"Then who are you?!" Hou Tai said angrily, "Why don't you tell me quickly!"
"This little man is the messenger sent by His Highness King Zhao." The messenger knelt down on his knees, took off the cylinder from his back, and presented it with both hands. "His Royal Highness King Zhao has been sent to His Highness the King of Han from 800 miles away!"
"..." King Han's heart tightened, and he had a bad premonition.
Hou Tai quickly took the cylinder, opened the seal, and presented the letter to the King of Han. The King of Han raised his hand, but did not accept the letter, but said to Wei Wuque behind him: "Sir, please read it for me."
Wei Wuque calmed down, tore open the seal, took out the envelope, read it quickly, and then leaned close to King Han in a low voice and whispered a few words.
The civil and military officials didn't know what to say, so they could only stare at the face of His Highness the King of Han Dynasty. They saw that the prince's face turned from black to green, from green to white, and finally turned as black as the bottom of a pot. At this time, even a fool knows that something bad is happening.
Got it!
"Your Majesty, your morale should be strong but not declining. Let's get over here first..." Seeing that Zhu Gaoxu was about to have an attack, Wei Wuque quickly advised him: "The soldiers are all looking at Your Majesty!"
"Alas..." The King of Han gritted his steel teeth and finally suppressed his anger, saying in a low voice: "Today is just a meeting to challenge thieves. We will choose another auspicious day to go on the expedition..."
"Ah?!" All the generals were shocked. They didn't know what happened, but the prince had to give up when he was about to take action!
A huge swearing-in meeting, but the final result was loud thunder and light rain. His Highness the King of Han just said a few words, "The imperial court is in trouble, bandits in Shandong are in trouble, fight bravely to kill the enemy, Guangzong will be honored?"
Nonsense, he perfunctorily treated his generals and left with a dark face.
The soldiers who were originally ready to go were brought back to the military camp in a daze. No one knew what happened.
In the Palace of the Prince of Han, there came from the Yin'an Palace a roaring sound like a mad tiger, and the sound of obscene curses, accompanied by the sound of banging things! The eunuchs and maids outside the palace were so shocked that they all kept silent, fearing that they would be harmed.
, lost his life.
Wei Wuque, Zhu Heng, Hou Tai, and Ma Zhong stood in the palace with all their strength, looking at His Highness the King of Han who was about to go crazy with anger, waiting for him to finish his attack...
The King of Han was really going crazy! He had been planning for so long! He had been holding back for so long! He even endured it for so long against his nature! What he got in return was nothing in the bamboo basket, nothing in joy, and all the people.
Throw it to grandma’s house!
After His Highness the King of Han smashed all the bottles and jars in Yin'an Palace, Wei Wuque asked: "Your Highness, what happened?"
Everyone also looked at His Highness the King of Han, really wanting to know what was so crazy about him.
"..." Zhu Gaoxu wanted to show King Zhao's secret letter to a few people, but found that he had thrown it away in a rage just now. He had no choice but to darken his face and said in a low voice: "He said that the prince used the reserve position to replace
Liu Sheng acted as guarantee and fought for him for another month!"
"Ah!" The generals now understood. No wonder the King of Han was going crazy. It turned out that the cooked duck had flown away again.
"Your Majesty, the key is what will happen in one month?" Wei Wuque asked calmly.
"It is said that after one month, if Liu Sheng still cannot win, not only will Liu Sheng be held accountable, but the prince will also ask to abdicate." Zhu Gaoxu said coldly: "I didn't expect that my eldest brother would be so afraid of this king!"
"Then this is not a bad thing?" Wei Wuque said softly: "As long as we wait patiently for another month, the prince will still become the governor-general, and the prince will be unable to eat and walk around..."
"Well." Zhu Gaoxu nodded and said in a muffled voice: "The third son also said the same in his letter. He asked me to endure it for another month. As long as I live in peace with the White Lotus Sect for one month, I will be the one who deserves it, and I will be the one who doesn't deserve it.
It belongs to me too!"
"But we have already sent out troops!" Zhu Heng reminded the two kings of Han in a low voice: "We have even captured the city of Linzi, how can we still be at peace with Qingzhou?"
"How about we withdraw our troops immediately," Hou Tai whispered, "and return Linzi to Qingzhou?"
"Hmm..." After venting his anger, His Highness the King of Han regained his composure. He held his chin and thought for a moment and said, "There is no reason to spit out what you have eaten! This time we captured Linzi unprepared and must not hand it over again."
!”
"Your Majesty is right!" Wei Wucuo nodded, agreeing very much: "We conquered Linzi, and we have a good reputation. There is no reason why Tang Tiande sneaked up on us, but we can't fight back. In the humble opinion of students, we can let those who attack Guangrao and Shouguang first
The army retreated, and then sent people to Qingzhou to tell them that it was justifiable for us to take back Linzi as punishment for them breaking the alliance!"
"Hmm." King Han couldn't help but nodded and asked, "Then what?"
"Then, we can give them two choices, war or peace. If they want to fight, there is nothing to say. Everyone will meet each other and fight to the death on the battlefield!" Wei Wuque said in a deep voice: "If they want peace, they
You must swear that you will never betray your alliance, stab your allies in the back, and hand over the culprits that caused the previous 'Linzi Incident' to our side!" After a pause, Wei Wuque whispered: "If you can do this, I will
Only then can Linzi be returned to them."
"What?!" When Zhu Heng heard this, he became furious and said, "You didn't listen to the prince, you must not return Linzi to them!"
"Hey, General Zhu, please be patient. The student's so-called return to Linzi is just empty talk." Wei Wuque shook his head and said with a smile, "Don't forget that our goal is just to win a month. So how can we win it?
?It’s nothing more than the word ‘drag’.”
"Drag?" Zhu Heng was stunned for a moment.
"Yes, delay." Wei Wuque said with a smile: "The so-called negotiation is just to delay time. That Tang Tiande is narrow-minded, prone to repetition, focusing on small gains and forgetting the overall situation. Hearing that we have captured Linzi, he will definitely be furious and want to fight
We will fight to the death. But if he hears again that we can return Linzi, he will definitely change his mind and try to avoid a war with us. But if he hears again that he needs to hand over his subordinates and confidants, he will definitely fall into conflicts again. This goes back and forth, and it lasts for a month.
Come quickly, he may not even have an idea!"
"Well, that's right!" Zhu Gaoxu nodded. Not to mention Tang Tiande, even he himself would still be hesitant for a long time when faced with such a complicated situation.
"What if," Hou Tai said sharply, "he surnamed Tang made a mistake in one of his tendons and quickly got an idea?"
"It doesn't matter. Even if he agrees to our request, he will definitely put forward a series of conditions. When the time comes, we will discuss and study it. Won't the time have passed?" Wei Wuque pursed his lips and smiled and said: "Even if we make a covenant, when will it happen?"
Shouldn’t it be up to us to return Linzi City to them? If we delay it for ten days, eight days and months, will they still be able to bite people?!”
"Haha, not bad!" Zhu Gaoxu finally cleared up from the clouds and nodded with a smile: "It belongs to Mr. Yiwei! Let's send people to Qingzhou and drag him down for a month!" After speaking, he asked again: "Who do you think will replace him?
Is this the most appropriate trip for me to take?"
"Originally it is the student's duty to refuse, but people from the White Lotus Sect are very wary of students and may not talk to me." Wei Wuque thought about it and said: "His Royal Highness is the most suitable. He has a noble status, can best represent the prince, and has ever
In Linzi City, we were plotted by the White Lotus Sect. If the White Lotus Sect wants to question us, His Royal Highness can confidently accuse them of breaking the covenant first!"
"Yeah." Zhu Gaoxu thought about it and nodded: "Anyway, it's just to delay time. It's not really about reconciling with them. Let Zhu Zhantan go there, so it won't mess up..." After that, he gave the order in a deep voice.
Said: "According to Gu's decree, Wang Bin and Chen Feng immediately led the army back to Le'an. Zhu Zhantan handed over the army to the deputy general and immediately went to Qingzhou as an envoy. There must be no mistake!"
"Obey the order!" The generals responded in a deep voice...
The news that Linzi City had been captured by the Han army had only reached Qingzhou at this moment. When Tang Tiande heard this, he was immediately shocked and hurriedly summoned his subordinates Wenwu to discuss matters in the lobby that had been changed to the "Government Hall"!
A group of so-called prime ministers, political ministers, and privy envoys, all dressed in pure white official uniforms, knelt down and saluted Elder Tang, shouting that the Dharma King would live forever!
In the past, Tang Tiande liked this etiquette the most, but today it was of no significance. He hurriedly walked to the dragon chair, sat down and said, "Everyone, get up."
"Thank you, King Fa." When all the civil and military officials stood up, Tang Tiande said in a deep voice: "The King of Han has taken action against us. He sent a large army to sneak attack Linzi last night. With the cooperation of traitors, they attacked the city at dawn. Our army suffered thousands of casualties and left many injured.
The remaining defeated generals are on their way back..."
"Ah?!" The expressions of the civil and military officials suddenly changed, and Bai Baier screamed: "This is incredible, the slave family just said that the King of Han cannot be messed with, right?!"
"Shut up!" Tang Tiande slapped the throne and said angrily: "The King of Han used us before to achieve his goal of making a comeback! Once the emperor re-enables him, he will be the first to destroy us and prove to the emperor that he can use him
That's right!" He spat: "Knowing this, why do I still sit back and wait for death? I must strike first!"
"But Linzi was taken back by others..." Bai Baier muttered: "I don't see the strength." As one of the three giants who later submitted to Tang Tiande, the other two Dong Yangao and Hao Yunzhong were both made prime ministers by Tang Tiande.
, only Bai Baier was left behind, which made him extremely unhappy, and he became more and more weird all day long. For mobile phone users, please visit http://m.piaotian.net
