Civil and military officials of the Manchu dynasty, begging me to ascend the throne

Chapter 137 Decision
The little Taoist frowned tightly, and the letter paper in his hand was tightly wrinkled.

After Ah Yishi finished predicting the war, he closed his mouth, and his eyes no longer stared at the letter paper, but instead looked at the two people in the room.

He understood that the reason why Li Yancheng wrote the letter was because of his "cowardice", so the people who made the choice would be the two people in the room.

Different from the frowning of the Taoist leader, Jiang Sile was not troubled by the matter at all, and after reading the letter, he still drank his tea cheerfully.

The room became silent, and the little Taoist's thoughts were running fast.

Beside him, Jiang Sile and Ayishi were exchanging eyes silently, the atmosphere was ambiguous.

"Your Highness, I still need to ask Mr. Tao about this matter."

After a while, the little Taoist gave his opinion.

He felt that this matter still needed an experienced person to help take care of the plan.

But Jiang Sile shook her head, looking at the little Taoist priest's puzzled face, she carefully explained: "Have you seen the imperial court's treatment of Old General Luan?"

The little Taoist was stunned for a moment, then nodded and said: "Confer the title of Marquis for the old general and settle him in Beijing."

Seeing that the little Taoist priest hadn't reacted yet, Jiang Sile sighed, and said slowly, "That's right. Little Taoist priest, tell me, if Old General Luan hadn't been arrested, would Lord Tao still be willing to rebel?"

As he spoke, Jiang Sile patted the envelope with sharp eyes.

"Now that we have entered a stalemate with the imperial court, if you were Tao Lao, how would you choose?"

Only then did the little Taoist suddenly realize that he was standing too close and ignored some things.

Tao Xiao and Tao Zhizhou are probably the ones who most want to accept the peace talks.

Now that the old general's life is safe, and the court is so generous, how could he not agree?

If he really came, he would try every means to get Jiang Sile to agree to peace talks.

Thinking of this, the little Taoist made a bitter face, feeling that this choice was difficult.

"If Your Highness has a decision, please tell the poor directly..."

Jiang Sile shook her head with a smile, she joked: "Didn't you still talk about making achievements a few days ago? Why is the Taoist leader so discouraged today?"

"Gu really doesn't know what to do about this matter yet—but, as Gu's counselor, the Taoist priest must make a decision quickly, so that he can leave his name in history."

As he spoke, Jiang Sile continued to lower his head and take a sip of tea.

For this matter, the options on both sides look pretty good.

Jiang Sile then threw this hot potato into the hands of the little Taoist priest, and she happily took a break.

The little Taoist looked at Jiang Sile incredulously, leaving such an important matter to him?
Apart from feeling Jiang Sile's trust, the little Taoist was still a little bit at a loss.

He himself believed that in the future, with his own ability, he would definitely be able to use his abilities in this world.

However, he did not expect that so soon...

Now he can already decide the future of a country.But the little Taoist no longer had the eloquence he used to boast.

He nervously began to count. He asked Ah Yi if he continued to fight, the route he should take in the future and the food and grass he would need in the future; The people talk.

Jiang Sile watched coldly from the side, as if she was looking at a piece of beautiful jade.

The original rough stone-like material gradually fell off, revealing the luster of beautiful jade.

She knew that the little Taoist would not live up to her expectations.

……

Three days later, Li Yancheng received an urgent letter from Jizhou.

The letter was not thick, but Li Yancheng felt the heavy weight he brought.

Everyone in the camp focused their eyes on the letter, on their marshal.

Li Yancheng opened the letter, browsed it hastily, and showed a relaxed and relieved smile.

He smiled and circulated the letter to the generals around him, who are now his comrades-in-arms and confidantes.

The generals in armor frowned and squinted their eyes after reading the letter. Some of them were overjoyed and even started dancing; some had gloomy faces and clenched their fists unwillingly.

"Marshal... we can finally go home!" The tears of an old general flowed down unconsciously, his thin white hair and the furrows on his brow told his age.

"But, just withdraw the troops like this?" A young general frowned, and punched the table in front of him with an expression of unwillingness.

Li Yancheng had expected that the generals were divided into two factions and opposed each other.

Originally, he had already thought of an excuse, but he didn't expect the princess to give him more reasons in the letter.

Li Yancheng deliberately suppressed the smile on his face, and looked solemnly at the generals.

He patted the table first, drawing everyone's attention to himself.

Afterwards, after Li Yancheng glanced at the crowd, he opened his mouth and said:
"What do you think? Do you still want to continue fighting?"

"Autumn is coming soon, and sooner or later the grain harvested in the fields will become food for the officers and soldiers.

How will we fight then?
Fighting hungry? "

These words made many generals calm down and bow their heads in thought.

Seeing this situation, Li Yancheng sighed, and said with a wry smile: "You don't know, before the imperial court sent troops to Chengzhou many times to increase troops, it was because Qingyi was about to attack."

"The first emperor also made plans for Great Xia. Although our army is cooperating with Qingyi, is it true that we are going to give the territory of Great Xia to those Qingyi people?"

Speaking of this, Li Yancheng could only see that the generals were excited.

Then, he said the most important and most sensible reason.

"You have all seen the imperial court's request. It is just a relegation to the official position. How can you be afraid that you will not be able to make meritorious deeds and careers when you fight against Qingyi next year?"

Li Yancheng consoled him earnestly: "Are we really going to be Daxia's sinners? Now the new emperor is benevolent and has a blood relationship with the princess. What's more, we are famous teachers, in order to save the old general. Now the court has properly arranged If you leave the old general, I should stop here."

The reason why the little Taoist made such a choice was due to many considerations.

In addition to the farm's autumn plowing and autumn harvest, he was more vigilant about Qingyi, a foreign land.

In his view, Qingyi's borrowing of soldiers has no good intentions.There is definitely a plan to take advantage of the civil strife in Great Xia to invade the border.

This made the little Taoist extremely vigilant and had to guard against it.

In addition, Xindi's character is also very important.If it is not Jiang Yi, who is famous for his benevolence, who is on the throne now, maybe.All this had to be planned otherwise.

Maybe Daxia is real, and the dynasty is about to change.

Li Yancheng recognized the letter in the handwriting of the little Taoist early in the morning, so he was also very happy.This little Taoist priest who once walked with him for a while has now grown into a qualified counselor.
