Tang Dynasty Mingyue Song Dynasty Pass

Chapter 636 Infighting
Wei Cen stepped out of the queue at this time, and said loudly: "Officials, since the State of Song intends to stop the war and negotiate a peace, this is a matter of life and death for the State of Tang. It must not be taken lightly. If you can exchange a Su Chen for the safety of the State of Tang, I feel very Good deal."

Chen Jue also stood up and said: "Master Wei is right. At present, the two fronts are all facing the stage of collapse. As time goes by, in a few months, it is very likely that the two fronts will all be defeated, and the Song army will be defeated." Under the city of Jinling. At that time, our entire Tang country will be in danger, if he can exchange a single Su Chen for the safety of the Tang country, this is his merit, and as a subject, he should pay for the court."

"I support what Master Wei said!"

"My minister agrees!"

Some ministers stood up to support Wei Cen and Chen Jue's point of view. They exchanged a Su Chen for the safety of the Tang State. If they were able to cease the war and negotiate a peace, the Tang State and the court would be preserved, and their safety and official positions would also be preserved.Therefore, most officials support this view and feel that it is too cost-effective.

Especially the members of the Song Party, they had always held a grudge against Su Chen. Because of Su Chen's existence, the Han Party rose and returned to the hub of power, overwhelming them.

The people of the Song Party, the officials have long held their breath, and at this time, Song Guo put forward a request for peace, which is to use Su Chen as an exchange, which just gave the Song Party officials an excuse to vent their anger, and they all supported this decision. And standing on the side of righteousness, so the momentum is very big.

At this time, Han Xizai walked out of the shift, with an anxious expression on his face, and even a bit of anger, and said: "Officials, this matter must not be done. This is obviously the strategy of the envoy of the Song Dynasty to drive a wedge between Su Chen and the court, so that the relationship between Su Chen and the court will be separated." Our side is caught in internal strife, and its heart can be punished, so we must not fall into this treacherous scheme."

Xu Xuan also stood up and said: "Master Han's words are very reasonable. We have all witnessed Su Chen's talent. This person can stop tens of thousands of troops. Whether it is his influence in poetry, or his medical skills and ability to study things , and his ability to do business are nothing in a million. With so many talents gathered in one body, his ability is too outstanding. We must not take the initiative to hand over this person to the Song State, otherwise one will ebb and flow, and the Song Congress will continue to grow day by day. Powerful, and my country of Tang will completely decline, and the gap with the country of Song will become wider and wider, which will only accelerate the demise of the country of Tang."

Gao Yue stood up and said: "Master Han and Master Xu, what they said is very reasonable. Su Chen is too important to my country of Tang. If he is there, we still have a chance to turn the tables. As long as Song Jun can't break through the two lines of defense , it will definitely recede soon, and when the time comes, we will regain our strength and recuperate. According to Su Chen's plan, in a few years our Tang Kingdom will definitely prosper, and we will gradually narrow the gap without fear of Song Kingdom's pressure. Therefore, Su Chen is very important. Don't hand it over easily, otherwise, how will the people of the world treat my Tang Kingdom?"

Feng Yanlu stood up and said: "This statement is absurd. No matter how talented Su Chen is alone, my country of Tang will perish without him? Don't really treat him as a crouching dragon and phoenix, let alone whether he has such practical effects What is the role of peace? If we keep fighting and discussing peace, our army will be defeated at any time. When the Song army arrives at the Jinling city, how will we solve the siege?"

"If you don't send Su Chen away, the country will be destroyed at any time. There is no future development. I advise you to seriously think about it. We can't hold on anymore. We don't have time to give Su Chen the opportunity to develop later. How to solve the current situation?" Urgency is the key.”

Wei Cen echoed and said: "Master Feng's words are reasonable. We all know that Jiangzuo Sulang is talented, but we should not blindly exaggerate his talent, and this kind of talent must be given in a stable national environment. Time can only be achieved step by step. But now the Song Dynasty will not give us this time. Whether to perish or hand over people is the choice between these two options. I hope everyone can proceed from reality."

Chen Jue said: "According to the spies' report, the food and grass in the entire Runzhou city can last for four months, and the army is less than 3. It is hard to say how long it can last in the face of a siege of [-] troops outside the city. Broken, instead of waiting for the city to be broken and Su Chen to be taken back to the State of Song by captives, we have no bargaining chip, why not take the initiative to hand over Su City now, in exchange for a chance for the State of Tang to breathe. In this way, the court of the State of Tang and the ministers will have a brighter future , otherwise the country will not be a country, and its destruction will be imminent, this is the most important thing."

Li Yu listened to the ministers arguing with each other, each talking about their own reasons. As a bystander, he felt that both the Song Party and the Korean Party made sense.

However, justification does not necessarily apply. Which one is most suitable for the current choice is the most important. He saw that Pan You and Li Ping, members of the new party, remained silent and did not speak.

Li Yu pondered for a while, and understood that Pan You and the others did not want to get involved, and if they supported the surrender of Su Chen, they would offend Sun Dang and even the scholars in Jiangnan.If Su Chen is not handed over, it is very likely that Tang State is really in danger and violates the interests of the New Party. After all, the group of New Party members are all southerners, representing the local nobles and powerful forces in the south of the Yangtze River. Once the Tang State is not protected, their interests will be jeopardized Big hit and hard hit.

Therefore, at this time, Pan You and the others will proceed from their own interests, and they should be more inclined to hand over Su Chen in exchange for Tang Guo's remaining time.

Furthermore, Pan You and Li Ping are also reformers themselves. If the Tang State can cease the war, then Pan You and the others will have a buffer time to continue to carry out reforms, and even absorb some of Su Chen's previous proposals for business reform and carry out a comprehensive tidy.Perhaps the Southern Tang Dynasty will become prosperous and strong again, and after learning the lessons of this defeat, better arrangements will be made for the defense of the city along the Yangtze River and along the defense line.

Therefore, Pan You and Li Ping remained neutral for the time being, but they were more inclined to hand over Su Chen.

They hope that the blame for offending people and the people in the south of the Yangtze River will be borne by the Song Party, and the loss will be borne by the Sun Party. After all, the Sun Party will lose Su Chen, and a crack will be created between the royal family, which will gradually decline. Then the New Party Then you can absorb the interests of the other two parties and take the opportunity to rise and grow bigger.

This is the reason why Xindang and others did not speak directly.

They want the Song Party and the Sun Party to fight fiercely and lose both, so that the New Party can dominate alone, and then display their political ambitions, carry out reforms, realize their personal political ideas, and revitalize the Tang Dynasty.

Li Yu felt that it would be difficult to get a result if the debate continued like this, so he announced that he would withdraw from the hall and discuss it another day.

He wants to go back to Chengxintang, meet important ministers of the three parties in turn, find out the thoughts of all ministers and parties, make a comprehensive evaluation, and do what is most beneficial to the royal family.

At this time, any emotional factors are no longer important, how to ensure the interests of Tang, the court and the royal family is the most critical.
