Chapter Five Hundred and Thirty-Three Seeking a lonely city, let you be buried with you all over the country!
Chapter 533: I want to be alone in this city, and I will let the whole country be buried with you!
The Sun Kingdom is restored!
Hearing this shocking news, Yao Yun was a little confused and didn't come back to his senses for a long time.
A few days ago, he learned the reason for the decline of the Sun Kingdom from the Ghost Emperor. Now he suddenly heard the news of the Sun Kingdom's restoration. Yao Yun was immediately dumbfounded.
Not only Yao Yun, but also all the senior officials of Xiguo were surprised.
However, things did happen.
Yao Yun looked around and asked Hu Yi: "Hu Yi, what's going on outside? Why did the news of Sun Guo's restoration suddenly come?"
Hu Yi reported: "Your Majesty, there is something going on. It is said that Mr. Sun Er, the orphan of Sun King's royal family, came to the King of Chu and complained bitterly. He claimed that Sun had no intention of provoking Chu, Izumo and other four countries. Everything was a misunderstanding.
...
After hearing this, the Marquis of Chu asked for confirmation and found out that he had indeed misunderstood, so he repented and felt guilty, so he decided to help Mr. Sun Er restore his country and return all the cities of the original Sun country to him!"
The bald dragon was outspoken. When he heard this, he immediately sneered: "What? That old guy from the Marquis of Chu is so kind? Helping others to restore their country and return the original city to him? Wasn't it the old guy like him who cared about others' territory back then?
Got it!"
This story is extremely well written, and once it is circulated, it will definitely become popular and be talked about by the world.
However, the story is a story. If it were told to everyone present, no one would believe that although the source of the decline of the Sun Kingdom and the destruction of the country was a ghost disaster, the ones who finally stabbed the country and added insult to injury were the Chu Kingdom, the Izumo Kingdom and other major countries.
At this time, the Marquis of Chu pretended to stand up and restore the country to others. If there was nothing fishy in it, no one would believe it.
Everyone in the palace thought so, which made them even more confused about what kind of medicine Chu Hou was selling in his gourd.
Hu Yi smiled bitterly and said: "The current public opinion outside is saying this. The countries in the Southern Wilderness have praised the Marquis of Chu, saying that he knows his mistakes and can correct them, has magnanimity, and has a pattern. I heard that the Marquis of Chu also appealed to the Mo Kingdom,
The Shanyuan Kingdom and our Xi Kingdom will return the city to the Sun Kingdom."
As soon as these words came out, everyone in the palace looked at each other.
Before, they were a little confused about the tricks played by the Marquis of Chu, but now, everyone finally understood that this was not to help the Sun Kingdom recover, but it was clearly a conspiracy.
Yao Yun frowned, and then asked: "How will Mo Country and Shan Yuan Country respond?"
Hu Yi said: "King Qi, Uncle Mo, and Uncle Shan Yuan have agreed to return the city, but the garrisons of the two countries have not retreated, and the city is still in their hands.
After a pause, he added: "Now the eyes of all the countries in the Southern Wilderness are focused on the Xi Kingdom outside. It won't be long before letters from Chu, Yue, Wu, Izumo and other countries will arrive one after another, admonishing the king to leave.
The city is for Young Master Sun Er!"
"Why!" The bald dragon was filled with indignation and his face was full of anger: "This city was given by the emperor, and it is completely different from their forced occupation. Why should we return the city?"
"You're right, why."
Yao Yun immediately looked around and asked everyone in the hall: "How do you think we should respond?"
Everyone looked at each other in confusion and confusion.
The bald dragon said: "What's there to say? I won't hand it over to them, and we won't let them succeed."
The second elder, Wu Tong, shook his head: "Hey, that's not right. The Marquis of Chu is taking advantage of the general trend. All the countries in the wilderness support Sun's restoration, and the people everywhere praise him. Xi's country is doing the opposite. How do outsiders view Xi's country? Your Majesty is a man who wants to do great things.
, You can’t give people a handle on small details, otherwise you won’t be able to convince the princes of the world in the future.”
Bailihuang: "What the second elder said is true. When the two countries are fighting, they must go out and have a reputation. Now in the eyes of outsiders, if we don't hand over Licheng, we have lost our morality. In the eyes of the humble ministers, we should implement a delaying strategy. No
Withdraw the garrison, wait for the opportunity, and discuss it later."
"General Baili is right, adapting to circumstances is the best policy."
Soon, the palace was in chaos, with people talking and angry.
Everyone is not a fool. Sun Guo's restoration of the country is obviously a cover, and its real purpose is to plot Xi Guo's departure from the city.
After Yao Yun experienced the initial surprise, now that he heard the whole story, he calmed down.
After rejecting the marriage offer from Emperor Di Mu, Yao Yun knew that such a day would come.
These days, he secretly accumulated strength in order to wait for the storm to come.
Although the Chu and Izumo attacks in front of him were a little tricky, they were expected by Yao Yun.
After two years of development, Licheng is no longer the dilapidated small town it once was. It has become extremely prosperous. At the same time, because of its connections with several countries, its commerce is quite developed. There are many merchants and they are extremely rich. They have long made all countries
They were salivating, especially Uncle Izumo, who was thinking about taking back Li City day and night.
Of the four cities in the Xi Kingdom, no one dares to touch them in Xidu. Chishui City is behind Xidu and is difficult to attack. Guanling City is currently stationed by Jimo Gongzi. The only opportunity is to leave the city.
It turned out that Yao Yun originally thought that Izumo Bo would unite other countries to attack Li City, but he never expected that the other party would use the pretense of "restoring the Sun Kingdom", and he never expected that the Marquis of Chu would end up personally.
Compared with the other party taking action in a strong way, this approach of pretending to be a "teacher of justice" is obviously more difficult. It not only has to face a powerful army, but also faces the world's public opinion.
In this era where morals are regarded as saints and emperors, personal morality is extremely important, especially for people like Yao Yun who want to do great things. Moral stains cannot be allowed.
For example, in the restoration of the Sun Kingdom, no matter how insidious the Chu Hou's intentions were, at least on the surface, he stood on the moral high ground, he was the embodiment of justice, and he controlled the public opinion of the countries in the Southern Wilderness.
A difficult question was placed in front of Yao Yun: whether to hand over Li Cheng or not.
Failure to do so will inevitably leave a moral stain and be talked about by the world;
If you surrender, you will fall into the Chu Hou's trick and hand over a high-quality city that has been in operation for several years for nothing, allowing the villain to succeed!
This is indeed a difficult problem!
If Yao Yun didn't have an elite fifth-grade army and hundreds of thousands of ghost soldiers and ghost generals, Yao Yun would probably have a huge headache and feel aggrieved when faced with such a dirty trick.
But now, Yao Yun is not so panicked. He is not interested in either option.
He has always been committed to repaying kindness with kindness and repaying hatred with evil, so he chose the third path:
The Chu State, the Izumo State, the Mo State, the Shanyuan State and other countries set up traps to trap him, so he would trap them back and leave these countries with no time to take care of themselves.
Who wouldn't tell lies with your eyes open?
As long as Yao Yun has a thought, hundreds of thousands of ghost soldiers and ghosts will be launched.
Overnight, news spread about the presence of Yinming dragon veins in the Chu, Izumo, Mo, and Shanyuan kingdoms, and the suspected presence of ghost stone mines.
The next day, these countries will be in chaos.
Don't talk about restoring the Sun Kingdom at that time. I'm afraid several monarchs will not be able to sleep well at night.
Of course, Yao Yun didn't want to do this unless it was absolutely necessary, because doing so would most likely trigger a conflict between the Kongming Ghosts and the Southern Wilderness countries in advance.
Although this conflict is inevitable, Yao Yun does not want to be the promoter.
all in all,
Don't be forced to be alone!
You are plotting to isolate your city and let the whole country be buried with you!
After having this trump card, Yao Yun's depression disappeared. Now he looked at the quarreling ministers and felt a little calm and confident in his heart.
However, at this moment, Sun Muyue, the Prime Minister of Xi State who had been silent and did not speak, stood up.
It is rumored by outsiders that the Prime Minister Sun Muyue is the princess of the Sun Kingdom.
After learning about Sun Guo's restoration, this decisive iron lady has been silent and has not expressed any opinions.
At this moment, he suddenly stood up and attracted everyone's attention.
