Queen Of Medicine

On the fourth day, the tengju palace held a great discussion.

On that day, shangguanjian announced to the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty that Xuchang City, the capital of xuzou state, was under attack three days ago. The Manchu Dynasty was in an uproar and everyone was in danger. The discussion on tengju's future plans has been going on for three days.

North Korea and China are divided into two factions, one is the main war and the other is the main peace.

The main war faction advocates to defend the country to the death, fight Daliang to the end with the strength of the whole country, and safeguard the dignity of tengju.

The advocate of peace faction Zhang sent officials to make peace, agreed to cede even half of the city, and even the candidate for the princess was selected, that is, the woman who replaced Prince Rong and was adopted as Wang Ji. Since I have enjoyed the royal family's sacrifice as Wang Ji, I naturally need to make contributions at a critical juncture.

The main war faction is righteous and strict, and looks back on death.

The moderates are compassionate and understand the great cause.

Neither of the two men can persuade anyone.

At this moment, there were two people, one main battle and one main harmony, which made Yan Rong's intuitive skull ache.

He has just taken over Teng juguo. The main battle faction is mainly those veterans in the army. He has not yet fully mastered it. Veterans want to fight every year, otherwise they will become heroes and have no place to play. And they knew that if Daliang occupied tengju like Zisang datan, those ordinary soldiers might be incorporated into the new army, but the generals must be the chickens killed to watch... Which army can use the generals of prisoners of war? It's also a word of death. Why not die with dignity? Although peace talks are almost an option, these generals who killed a way out of thousands of troops in the battlefield know that the emperor Daliang, as a monarch who mastered the cutting-edge powerful weapons, how could they let go of tengju, the weakest of the four countries? How can the only beautiful city meet the ambition of emperor Daliang to unify the five countries? Today's stand still, I'm afraid that the emperor Daliang was thinking about his old relationship with his country's leader. When Daliang unified the four countries, how could this small country be allowed to be free?

The moderates are the old and important officials in the court. The old ministers tried to protect their ancestors' foundation. They would rather offer Wang Ji to cede the border city than fight for a little chance to survive. Most of the important officials in the court are scholars who have been immersed in officialdom for decades. They usually have a deep-rooted relationship with the people in the court, and their influence on the whole court can not be underestimated. If the country is subjugated, they are often unable to be alone. But they heard that the former Zisang's important officials were sent to the border city as coolies, and the women were sent to Kyoto as slaves and maidservants. Most of the things left in the original Zisang bureaucratic system are young officials with low power, simple imperial relations and willing to submit to the new monarch. It's easy to say, but hard to do. Not to mention the position of the scholar family in the new situation, even the new king may not be willing to watch the scholar family preserve their strength and hide their strength. Therefore, for these noble families, it is the best choice to delay the arrival of the war as much as possible, so that they can make arrangements and arrangements, minimize losses and preserve their strength.

Therefore, the two men did not give in to each other and quarreled endlessly.

Yan Rong was about to make them quiet for a while, but he heard a sharp "report -". He was refreshed and knew that the turn was coming

A soldier came running in, sweating.

At one glance, Yan Rong was filled with disappointment.

The soldier was dressed as an ordinary post soldier with a red flag in his hand, which showed that although the news he reported was important, it was not directly related to tengju state.

Sure enough, the soldier handed a little sheepskin roll and said, "serve the country Lord. This is the latest news from xuzou and Xuchang city."

Next to him, the Chamberlain came, took the lamb skin roll, ran and handed it to the big supervisor in front of Yan Rong. The big supervisor opened it and glanced at it quickly, and then presented it to the Lord.

Yan Rong took it, opened it and glanced at the civil and military officials.

The ministers looked at him eagerly.

He said in a deep voice, "as the ministers expected, the city of Xuchang fell, the Lord poked himself, and Xu Zou died."

There was an uproar.

Although this was the expected ending, the ending was bloody in front of us. The sense of crisis came, and the previous sense of urgency suddenly increased several times.

Everyone thinks of their own destiny. It may be their turn to face the hatred of national subjugation, accompanied by the destruction of their families and the flying of flesh and blood... The ancestral family's foundation is not guaranteed, and the miserable fate that their wives and children will face

For a moment, there is war and peace. It seems that there is no way out... All waiting for them is destruction

The two factions are silent for a time... If there is no war and discord, there is only one way out

Those ideas on paper are completely worthless in the face of bloody war

At this time, Yao Dehui stood up and said, "Mr. Wang, the situation is pressing now. Time waits for no man. The next goal of Daliang is my tengju. Tengju is the weakest of the five countries. Please make plans as early as possible. "

Yan Rong said wearily, "what are you going to do? Didn't Zhong Aiqing discuss it for three days? Are you sure whether it's war or peace“

All the officials at the bottom looked like each other. The only way out appeared in my mind, but no one dared to say it first

Yao Dehui looked around and stopped talking.

Yan Rong saw this and asked, "what good suggestions does Yao Aiqing have?"

Yao Dehui arched his hands and said, "I'm afraid it's too late to negotiate peace now, but there's no chance of winning the war with him. The minister is willing to be a sinner for thousands of years. He dared to suggest a word, "he looked around, the expected light flashed in the eyes of the ministers, clenched his teeth, and said in a deep voice," down. "

The crowd was in an uproar again, but soon they kept silent again. Everyone began to let go of the ideas that had just appeared in their minds but did not dare to think deeply, and began to think about the pros and cons of surrender and the possible outcome in their hearts. This is a method that none of the other three countries have taken, and no one knows what the final outcome will be. But according to common sense, it must be better to surrender without war than to subjugate the country with all-out resistance?

Yao Dehui said again, "with the help of magic guns in Daliang, our army will lose if it meets. Although there are finished eggs under the nest? But subjecting to Daliang can at least protect the people's well-being from it. We can also protect the foundation of Yan Family for decades. The minister is dull, and is willing to send the envoy Da Liang to hand over the surrender watch. If Daliang needs to sacrifice blood as a watch, I'd like to offer my head on my head.

There was silence in the hall, and the dropping of needles could be heard.

Surrender will not change the outcome of defeat, but it is more moderate and more radical than the Democrats. For a moment, everyone saw new hopes and opportunities in it.

There was a faint excitement spreading out in the hall.

Then I heard a sharp cry, "report -"

A figure in a war robe with flying bamboo on his back stumbled in, "report -"

Everyone faces fear.

Only eight hundred miles of urgent military affairs can use such a messenger.

Usually something very, very urgent has happened.

Did Daliang start a war against tengju?

Everyone thought of this at the same time.

The soldier gasped, "report - King, hurry up eight hundred miles. Three miles outside Hongcheng, a border city in the south of China, was attacked by the Daliang army! "

Yan rongmeng stood up, "what happened?"

The soldier took another two breaths and said, "at Mao o'clock yesterday, there was a sound of thunder on the Hongshan mountain outside Hongcheng. After more than ten sounds, there was no movement. General Yang sent someone for reconnaissance and found that the whole Hongshan mountain had completely disappeared. The walls of Sanli Chengguo have also been affected, and there are many gaps cracked by boulders. The soldiers stationed in the garrison Guo said that when the thunder sounded, the earth shook and the mountains shook, and people and animals were frightened. "

The Hall fell into silence again.

That's the power of magic gun

This is the last straw to crush all civil and military officials.

If they did not know the power of the divine cannon before, this exercise gave them a very intuitive and strong feeling, and completely broke all their fluke psychology.

Shangguan sword took a step forward and said in a deep voice, "Lord Yao is right. I agree with you. Please make a decision as soon as possible."

Shangguan sword is the uncle of the state, the loyal minister of the new king and the representative of the interests of the royal family. Even he has stood up and expressed his position. Can others have a better choice?

With this in mind, all the civil and military officials knelt down and bowed down one after another, "minister, I beg the emperor's decision."

The loud voices of the people echoed in the hall for a long time.

In the final analysis, surrender, the most humiliating and loss of interests, must be the head of a country.

Yan Rong was silent for a long time, and finally sighed, "so, let Yao Aiqing and Shangguan Aiqing go out to make an envoy."

After a moment of silence, it rang through the hall: "you are wise..."

In the evening, when Yan Rong returned to Fengming palace where Fengxin was located, he saw that Fengxin was playing with his son with the wooden Luban lock sent by Zhuo Xi a few days ago. Seeing Yan Rong coming back, Qian Yao stood up and saluted him like a model, "see your father."

Yan Rong strode forward happily, picked up his two-year-old son and held him in his arms, "Yao'er, do you feel better today?"

Yin Qianyao replied cleverly, "back to my father, Yao'er is much better." He looked at Fengxin. Fengxin also smiled and said, "he was blown by the wind when he fed fish in the garden two days ago. He would be fine if he had a rest for two days."

The son raised the Luban lock in his hand and said proudly, "father, look! This is the Luban lock that Aunt Xi asked someone to bring me! I can spell it! "

Yan Rong nodded his nose, "Yao'er is great!"

Yan Rong put his son on the ground and motioned the nurse standing aside to take him back to rest. The nurse saluted and took the little prince out.

Feng Xin poured a cup of tea from the desk and handed it over. "I'm tired today?"

Yan Rong held her in his arms, took the teacup with one hand and drank it, "it's finally finished." In fact, he didn't care about a major event that decided the life and death of a country just discussed in the court, as if they were only discussing what to eat for dinner today. Because of this decision, he had made it long ago, but it took a few days for all the ministers to willingly accept this proposal

After drinking the tea, he was about to return the cup to Fengxin. He wondered, "Hey, why does this tea seem a little different?"

Feng Xin said with a smile, "you've been busy with State Affairs recently. I've added some Astragalus membranaceus and medlar to make you feel better today. You don't know senior brother's ambition! The reunification of the five countries will happen sooner or later. Haven't you made plans? "

Yan Rong sighed, "it's one thing to know yourself, another thing to let others know, and another thing to let others know, accept and implement."

Feng Xin put his hand around his waist, hid in his arms and said, "let him realize this wish quickly. I really want to go back to Kyoto City to see Zhuo Xi and them. Their little yu'er is not as big as our Yao'er. I'm looking forward to seeing how our Yao'er bullies their little yu'er! "

Yan Rong smiled, "what did you say? Like you have deep hatred, why should our son bully their son? "

Feng Xin said lazily, "don't you know? Elder martial brother bullied me from childhood. Zhuo Xi also bullied me! It is not a gentleman to take revenge! "

Zhuoxi bullied her? So she's talking about the time she was poisoned? He tightened his soft body in his arms, smiled and said in her ear, "I want to thank her! If it weren't for her, how could I be with my beloved? "

"So you promised us to go to the capital city together?"

"Well, since shangguanjian and Yao Dehui are going to be ambassadors, why don't we dress up and revisit our hometown?"

Feng Xin laughed, "that's a good idea!"

He was tengju on his way back. He had only participated in the political affairs of a country for more than a year. Speaking of it, even if he is a king, he doesn't necessarily have deep feelings for his father and son, let alone his responsibility and love for this country and its people. For him, it was better for him to stay in the palace to deal with government affairs than to be a dark guard around Jing Yuan. Moreover, with his wife and son around him, he has no intention of being diligent and loving the people. Now there is such an opportunity to unload the burden, why not?

But then again, he was really interested in the magic gun. Yes, but the king of a country can't really practice weapons. It's meaningless to listen to others describe the power of that new weapon from a distance. He has long wanted to return to Beijing. It is said that Jian Yi attacked datan with divine artillery, and that Jian Yun presided over the main work of the military academy. The military academy also has valuable art of war and is trying to develop new weapons. So many interesting things that he can't see or touch. He can only "hear" in tengju far away. Why doesn't it make his heart itch?

One mountain cannot tolerate two tigers. The king of a country who had surrendered was either imprisoned or killed. However, he seems to have no fear of life at all. I'm just a family of three. Besides, I'm still a former subordinate of the master, and my wife is the master's junior sister. I don't have a way to live, do I? On the contrary, it is the important officials and families of the imperial court who have to face the reshuffle of the situation and whether they can protect their lives or not. But what does this have to do with him?

Thinking of the military books and new weapons of the military academy, he suddenly filled with new expectations for his new life in the future.
