The rise of Tianzhu of Daqin

Chapter 523 The Pot-sharing Conference
Running wildly all the way, further ahead is the city run by the merman tribe, and there are no pursuers behind him. The merman prince couldn't help but heaved a sigh of relief, but in a blink of an eye, he immediately became frowning.

It is gratifying to escape this time, but in the battle of Lijiang, the Yuren suffered a disastrous defeat. As the prince of the Yuren on the battlefield of Lijiang, he retreated before the battle. If he does not give an explanation to the Yuhuang, he is afraid that he will have no good fruit to eat!
"Prince, why are you frowning?"

There was a merman commander who wanted to celebrate, but seeing the face of the eldest prince, the smile disappeared. The merman prince is not easy to explain to the merman, can they explain it easily?
They are also deserters, the eldest prince is the son of Emperor Shark after all, and they are just courtiers under Emperor Shark's rule, so it's hard to say who will die and who will live!
The eldest prince was also aware of this, so he prepared to discuss with everyone to see if there was any reason to make the Emperor Yu angry.

"Everyone, although I escaped from the sword of Liaodong Heijia this time, I'm afraid that my father's side is also the wrath of thunder!"

The merman prince asked: "What should I do?"

Matters of life and death are naturally on everyone's mind. Some people frowned, thinking about it, and said: "It's better to shift the responsibility for the defeat to other people. We encountered many deserters along the way, and they all said other people The merman commanders have all died in battle."

"It's perfect to let the dead take the blame!"

Immediately someone echoed and said: "Besides, in the battle of Lijiang, His Royal Highness the First Prince did not want to go to war at all. It was those commanders who maintained their power and did not listen to the First Prince's words, which caused the Yuren to be defeated and killed tens of thousands of them. Die in battle, and let us fall to this point."

"It's not right!"

A merman leader thought for a moment, then frowned and objected: "Although the former merman army was defeated, there are countless people who fled, and there are no more thousands of insiders. We can fool the merman for a while, but we can't fool the merman!"

"If the matter is revealed, we will still be dead, and we will not be able to drag our wife and children down!"

The crowd immediately came to their senses, patronizing the merman commander, they almost forgot about the fleeing merman soldiers.

After everyone was silent for a moment, someone became ruthless and made a move to kill and silence, but it made the eldest prince dissatisfied.

"There are tens of thousands of defeated soldiers, and they are all our merman soldiers, how can we kill them!" The merman prince said: "Let's think of other ways!"

"Prince, you are confused!"

A merman leader hated iron and steel and said: "Now the situation is grim, you will die or I will live. Most of them belong to the third prince. How can you have a woman's heart and benevolent thoughts!"

"Yeah, a wrong step is a wrong step. If they got the wrong start, they can't blame us for the wrong end."

A merman leader continued: "We are waiting for the subordinates, there are still strong men who dress up as humans and come forward to intercept and kill them, and great things can be accomplished."

"Sacrificing tens of thousands of people is enough to save the lives of 15 mermaids like me!"

The eldest prince couldn't help being in a dilemma, but his own life was at stake, so that was the only way to go.

"The human race has stopped chasing soldiers. You have used this method to deceive the Emperor. Are you treating the Emperor as a fool, or did you not die fast enough?"

Zhao Ji's figure suddenly appeared in front of the First Prince and the others. Just now, she heard everyone's plans, and only felt that they were doing it for themselves.

If all the merman soldiers died on the way to escape, and the army of lovers under the eldest prince was safe and sound, it would be strange if there were no ghosts among them. With the methods of the merman emperor, it is easy to find out that the hands and feet of the first prince are sitting behind the merman prince.

In order to appease the merman's anger and re-stabilize the mermen's morale, even if the merman's eldest prince is the son of the merman, he will die, and besides, he is not the merman's favorite son.

"The High Priest!"

"I have seen the great priest!"

Zhao Ji appeared suddenly, and everyone seemed to have a backbone, asking Zhao Ji's opinion one after another.

"The high priest thinks what should I do?"

Zhao Ji sneered and said, "In the Battle of Lijiang, the Yuren were defeated. They have lost the initiative of the entire southern Kyushu and were suppressed by the human race. Someone is indeed responsible for this."

"It's understandable to push it to the dead, but you must also pay attention to your words, and you can't clean up your snakes."

"High Priest, just speak up, how should we speak to save our lives?"

At this time, the leader of the sharks was not hypocritical, and directly begged Zhao Ji.

"The leader of the mermen is quite arrogant. He doesn't listen to the words of the eldest prince. He doesn't know the details of the black armor in Liaodong. He underestimates the enemy and advances aggressively. He fights on his own. He is defeated one by one by the empire, and his army is defeated like a mountain."

Zhao Ji said indifferently, and in the blink of an eye, the reason for the defeat of the Yuren was clearly arranged.

"But even so, it would be a death penalty for me to run away!" Someone shook his head and said, obviously what Zhao Ji said could not solve their urgent needs.

"Since the army has been defeated like a mountain, you are powerless to return to heaven. In addition, all the strong mermen have been beheaded, and the merman's power is gone. Therefore, I ordered you to retreat to preserve the strength of the mermen, and then plan for the future! "

Zhao Ji said: "Remember, it's a retreat, not a rout!"

The strong sharks all showed joy and were very excited. Zhao Ji was going to take the blame for them. They couldn't help being grateful, but they were concerned about Zhao Ji's safety.

"But if the Shark Emperor blames it, and you bear it all, you may be in danger of your life!"

"Actually, I was the coach of the Lijiang battle. I am responsible for Lijiang's defeat!"

Zhao Ji said: "If I can defeat the strong human race, even if Lijiang loses miserably, the strong mermaid can turn the tide!"

"How can it be your fault?"

A merman leader said: "If they hadn't insisted on confronting the human race head-on, the outcome of the Lijiang battle would still be unknown."

"I will definitely play them a book in front of Lord Yuhuang, even if they die, they will not be able to live in peace!"

Zhao Ji frowned, and scolded the leader of the merman, saying: "Nonsense, the most urgent thing is to save your lives. If you keep staring at a dead person, not only is it meaningless, but it will make the merman suspicious."

"Although they were defeated, they were also killed in battle, which is better than you running away!"

Zhao Ji said: "After pushing the responsibility for the defeat to them, we should not insult or despise them at all, but praise them, praise them severely."

"They didn't die in battle, but after receiving the retreat order, they sacrificed their merits and held back the strong human race, buying time for you to retreat, and finally died of exhaustion."

"He is spreading the ferocity of the human race, saying that the human race cut off their heads and hung them on the horse's head, showing off their might, and directing the wrath of the demon emperor to the human race."

Zhao Ji finally said with the final word: "The responsibility for the battle of Lijiang will be borne by the dead, and the wrath of the Shark Emperor will be borne by the human race. This is your ray of hope."

"I would like to thank the high priest for pointing out the maze. In the future, if the high priest comes to our place usefully, just ask, I will definitely not refuse!"

Zhao Ji's words made everyone turn the corner, and everyone naturally reciprocated.

It's a pity that the leader of the sharks who died in the battle on the south bank of the Lijiang River will suffer injustice after death.

What a pot-sharing meeting!If Huang Quan, the leader of the mermen, knows, the coffin cover may not be able to hold it down, which is wrong. Their corpses have already been used by the Hei family in Liaodong to build a Beijing temple. Where did the coffin boards come from!
