Chapter 140

No one present was a fool. As soon as Yan Chujing said this, they knew that His Majesty the Emperor, who had always advocated ending war with war, was angry.

Just now, the ministers who advocated showing the aura of the upper kingdom and posing as winners immediately held their heads high, while the group of people who advocated caution and safety first looked at each other, showing a little hesitation.

"Your Majesty..." After a long while, someone among them said, "The ministers are just putting forward some ideas on the actual situation, so why are you so angry?"

"That's right, even if we give Beiyan more face, it's impossible for you to go to meet people in person."

"Actually, we just need to be polite to them and give them enough face. Wouldn't it be nice to be a little more tolerant and exchange a peaceful life without fighting with swords? Not only did we not lose anything, but we also appeared to be magnanimous. This is the real truth. The style of Shangguo..."

"That's right, we're just suggesting to be friendly..."

Someone started, and these people began to justify their proposals one by one.

In the words, it seemed that they were still secretly accusing Yan Chujing of being extreme, and threatening them at them during the discussion.

"What a tolerant and polite man, what a Shangguo demeanor." Yan Chujing clapped his palms and laughed angrily, "It's been so many years that you still don't understand that Dajing, who has a complete country today, can accept the worship of Beiyan as a Shangguo, all thanks to the past The blood and tears that soldiers shed on the battlefield for several years.

"As for the magnanimity you are talking about? Heh... Not only can this thing not be exchanged for a piece of land, it can't even be exchanged for our enslaved people."

He snorted slightly: "Stop holding unrealistic and naive ideas, instead of hoping that others will respect you because of your humility, it is better to use your strength to frighten the other party, so that people dare not move around under your nose.

"Beiyan is the defeated side. They sent me Dajing as an offering to pray that Dajing's iron cavalry would no longer set foot on their territory, and stop killing their troops.

"In this way, they want something from us, and therefore, we treat them as a small country attached to them."

After all, Yan Chujing didn't give anyone a chance to refute, so he got up directly, and ran away with a flick of his sleeves: "My decision has been made, and I will never change it. If anyone argues with me about this matter, I will ask first. You and Bei Yan What's the relationship?"

The emperor left with a flick of his sleeves. Although the courtiers who stayed in the hall still had a lot to say, none of them wanted to get close to him at this time.

But not provoking Yan Chujing doesn't mean that the two parties in the dispute can get used to each other.

"Your Majesty just said, you must have heard it?" The person who had the same opinion as Yan Chujing was the first to stand up and speak, "The emperor's order must not be violated. Since Your Majesty has said that he will show the demeanor of a winner, those so-called friendly , you can collect it.”

"Hmph, what you said is simple. Your Majesty is young and energetic, are you also young and energetic? After posing your feet, if you break the peace, what should you do?"

"That's right, our enmity with Beiyan has not lasted for a day or two, and those barbarians are unreasonable, and they will grin their teeth and try to fight you desperately if something goes wrong. When you meet such a person, it's better to be less aggressive."

"But His Majesty just said clearly..."

"As ministers, we are supposed to share His Majesty's worries. When His Majesty makes a wrong decision, we must correct it in time. Otherwise, we will be foolish and loyal."

"Who are you calling stupid and loyal?! I am timid and afraid of getting into trouble, and I want to pass the responsibility to others?!"

"Don't push? Will you take care of it if something happens?"
