Sword God Wine Ancestor

Chapter 557 The Crucial Battle

Hearing what Zhao Wuji said, Queen Shangguan and the others didn't dare to say any more.

After a night's rest, Zao Wou-ki sat on the main hall in the morning of the next day and went to court!
Today's civil and military officials heard that Zhao Wuji had woken up, and they still didn't believe it. Now seeing Zhao Wuji sitting on the dragon chair, they are convinced, and at the same time they are very excited.

"Long live my emperor! Long live!"

Due to excitement, the voice of Shan Huan live became a little louder, Zhao Wuji's face was still a little pale, he slowly raised his hand and said: "Everyone, love yourselves, let's go! I haven't seen you for a long time, I miss you all very much in my heart!"

"Your Majesty is fine, it is the blessing of all people!" Li Chengji bowed and said.

Zhao Wuji smiled slightly, and began to deal with the government affairs. Since there are rebellions everywhere, the most important thing now is to put down the rebellion, and Zhao Wuji has already decided to go to the imperial court himself, so he still has to make an announcement on the court.

Zhao Wuji said in a deep voice: "I heard that the Fifth Prince and the Seventh Prince left separately. One went to Liaozhou to suppress the rebellion, and the other went to Huizhou to resist the rebels. But is Huizhou too close? So I decided to go to Huizhou in person , look at what my good son is doing!"

Although it was said that it was a personal conquest by the imperial driver, Zhao Wuji also knew that it was impossible to let the Seventh Prince Zhao Zhen, who was nearby, go straight to the south, and the first problem now was to solve the Seventh Prince!

Hearing this, all the officials had different thoughts, none was the happiest than Prime Minister Li Chengji, after all he supported the eldest prince, and of course the fewer competitors the elder prince had, the better!
The other ministers reacted less. This matter has little to do with them. The reason why Zhao Wuji said this was only to greet them, not to discuss with them. Say more.

So the matter was quickly settled, and three days later, Zao Wou-ki would personally lead an army of 50 to Huizhou!

Of course, these 50 troops cannot all be the elites of Shangjing. Only 20 of them are the elite troops of Shangjing, and the remaining 30 are temporarily gathered from other places.

After coming down to court, Mr. Lu found Su Bai and said directly, "Your Majesty is awake and is going to Huizhou."

Su Bai was slightly taken aback, although he expected that it was normal for Zhao Wuji to wake up again when Li Nong Guzhu was there, but now he was a little surprised when he heard this, and the other party was planning to conquest himself?It is really vigorous and resolute!

Su Bai said, "Old man, what do you think of this matter?"

Mr. Lu pondered for a moment, and then said: "It's hard to say, now Huizhou has been taken over by the Seventh Prince. According to information, the Seventh Prince also has an army of 40 and 50. This time, His Majesty personally leads an army of [-], which seems to have a great advantage, but It's hard to say what the outcome will be!"

Su Bai frowned, but he didn't expect that Mr. Lu would not be optimistic about Zhao Wuji's personal conquest. He said, "If that's the case, have you ever tried to dissuade His Majesty? Why do you think the outcome is unpredictable?"

"Dissuade?" Mr. Lu raised his eyebrows, and said with a noncommittal smile: "Your Majesty, can you listen to other people's words? Don't look at me as the Minister of the Ministry of Officials, but I dare to talk about this kind of thing, hehe, The end will not be good! As for what to say, the outcome is uncertain, because the Seventh Prince has no way to retreat. If His Majesty uses Zhao'an's method to let the other party return to Beijing, maybe the other party can come back, but now it's another word Don't say anything, just send troops there, do you think the Seventh Prince will surrender directly, or resist desperately?"

Su Bai didn't speak. According to this situation, the Seventh Prince is more likely to resist desperately. It is really hard to say the outcome of the battle of hundreds of thousands of troops. Why didn't Zhao Wuji let the Seventh Prince go to Beijing to plead guilty?But after thinking about it, when the second prince was self-reliant, Zhao Wuji directly ordered to kill him. Although the seventh prince was not self-reliant on the surface, the nature was actually the same. Besides, someone might have said something in Zhao Wuji's ear, It is not difficult for Zhao Wou-ki to make such a decision.

Su Bai said: "If the seventh prince is dealt with, what will happen to the fifth prince...?"

Mr. Lu shook his head and said: "It's hard to say now. If His Majesty can quickly cut through the chaos and wipe out the Seventh Prince, it will be enough to deter the world. The rebellion in various places will soon disappear. , are nothing to worry about, I even think that the Fifth Prince may return to Beijing directly to plead guilty!"

"But once His Majesty loses this battle, the situation will be completely different! Just look at it, not only will there be no fewer rebellions in various places, but it will become more, and the fifth prince will even clearly stand on his own!"

Although Mr. Lu didn't explain why, Su Bai also wanted it, it was nothing more than seeing Zao Wou-ki's old age, no, he couldn't control the world anymore!I have to say that although Zao Wou-ki was poisoned this time, although he did not die, some caring people saw that the other party was not immortal, but also had weaknesses, and would also be injured by poisoning. It's really dangerous!
Su Bai's heart skipped a beat, he was suddenly a little excited, this kind of excitement was inexplicable, he just suddenly had a feeling that he was about to witness history, the changes in the situation of the entire Wu Dynasty were about to happen before his eyes, about to happen In the next battle!
Su Bai looked at Mr. Lu and asked, "Master Lu, do you think His Majesty can see this? Will other ministers in the court see this?"

Mr. Lu shook his head slowly, and sighed: "It's hard to say. We can actually guess what His Majesty is thinking? Besides, as His Majesty's martial arts have become more and more advanced over the years, he believes in strength and believes in absolute power. In front of them, all conspiracies and tricks are nothing more than chickens and dogs! As for the other ministers, it is even more difficult to say, but as I said before, even if someone can see the key to this battle, I am afraid they will not Will speak, after all, it can be seen, and it is clear that His Majesty will not listen to these opinions."

Su Bai nodded slowly. With the improvement of personal strength, especially from the acquired to the innate, the mentality will indeed change. After all, the average person can live to be seven or eighty years old. Double the amount, if you are a natural expert, if you pay attention to health preservation and know how to take care of it, it will not be a problem to live to be more than 80 years old!

Sometimes the length of lifespan is enough to distinguish a race!
Su Bai sighed, although he is not yet innate, but with the improvement of strength, his mentality is actually undergoing wonderful changes, although he will not regard ordinary people as another race, but he is indeed more and more confident, otherwise He also won't stay in Shangjing, because he feels that with his own strength, even if there is a war in Shangjing, he can escape with confidence!

Su Bai said: "Old man, don't you just watch this war start, don't you have any other ideas?"

If the court loses this war, life will be difficult in the future!Even if Mr. Lu said that no matter who ascended the throne, it would not have a great influence on him, but he would never want to watch the world go into chaos, would he?
Hearing what he said, Mr. Lu suddenly looked at him with some deep meaning, and asked with a half-smile: "Boy Su, what about you? What do you think? Now you also understand the importance of this war. How to do?"

Su Bai was stunned for a moment, he didn't expect that Mr. Lu would suddenly ask him such a question, he was silent for a moment, he really didn't think much about this question before.

In fact, don't look at him sworn sworn brothers with the fifth prince, and promised to help the other party fight for the succession to the throne. He even felt that if he couldn't get out of this muddy water no matter what, he might as well take the initiative to do so!But despite saying this, in fact, whether it was when the second prince stood on his own, or when he saw the fifth and seventh princes leave one by one, now Zhao Wuji is about to go on a personal conquest, and there may even be chaos in the world later.

Su Bai suddenly felt that he didn't really take all this to heart!He suddenly felt as if he was just a passer-by, just witnessing all this, even if he would participate in it, but he still didn't realize he was in it, and he always felt that this matter had nothing to do with him!
Now that I think about it carefully, the reason why I have this kind of thinking is that I may have traveled through time with him, and I am not from this world, so it is difficult to integrate into it when facing all this, even if I hear that it may cause chaos in the world , I don't feel deeply about him.

These thoughts quickly flashed through Su Bai's mind, and he suddenly smiled and said, "Old man, don't forget, I have sworn sworn vows with the fifth prince, and of course I hope that the next thing will be beneficial to the fifth prince."

Mr. Lu shook his head noncommittally. He didn't judge what he said, but asked again: "So, do you want to see the world in chaos and people's lives are in dire straits?"

Su Bai's expression suddenly turned serious, and he slowly shook his head and said, "Old man, you are wrong, I never want the world to be in chaos, but just like you have always reminded me before, I always feel that the general trend of the whole world depends on Compared to an individual, I'm really too small, or to be precise, I'm really nothing compared to a small person like me!"

"The wheel of history is rolling forward, crushing everything that stands in its way! It will never be shifted by individual will. The Wu Dynasty has been established for more than 400 years. If it really ends like this, and a new dynasty replaces it, that's okay. It's not impossible, the only thing I can do is to choose a better king and let him ascend to the throne as much as possible."

Hearing Su Bai's words, old man Lu was stunned immediately, he never thought that Su Bai would say such words, such words would come out of Su Bai's mouth!He couldn't imagine, what kind of experience made Su Bai have such a concept?
