Huang Di hesitated for a while, then raised his head and glanced at the representatives of several wealthy families in the front row, such as Gao Yang, Gao Xin, You Yu, and Tao Tang, the most direct blood relatives, and frowned in distress.
"Who did this?"
As soon as these words came out, there were a lot of low voices in the hall, and many people looked unhappy.
"Who did it?" When Huang Di asked the question for the second time, he had already recalled Xuanyuan Sword and placed it on the table.
The crowd began to commotion, and the voices gradually became louder. Huang Di asked this sentence to mean that he had given in, and wanted to find a "culprit" among them to take the blame!
No one can turn a blind eye to matters involving such core interests, even in front of Huangdi, even if he puts on a tough stance, they have to bite the bullet.
There are also some people who did not participate. They are all extremely wealthy families, so naturally they are not afraid of being involved. However, they are also not optimistic about this plan. This is simply a bad idea. It not only loses the hearts of the people, but also affects the people.
It reached the national prestige of the entire Daxia.
Suddenly, Huang Di, who had been frowning, laughed loudly and said: "Since those barbarians want war, then give them war!"
This sudden and completely reversed attitude made all the people in the hall who had been scheming and scheming all their lives dumbfounded. Which song was this? Just now, I was looking sad and thinking about making things big, and now I am so proud and ready to go to war. This gap is really real.
It's too big.
They were surprised. Although they were also eager to have such a war to teach the beasts a lesson, they were not stupid either. They could naturally understand Huang Di's difficulties. War was not something that could just be fought. There were many things that had to be discussed in the past few years.
Come on.
As soon as Huang Di finished speaking, a large number of ministers had something to say, and all of them talked about the dangers of war, as if each of them had forgotten that they wanted to teach the beasts a lesson.
The thoughts of this group of people are obvious. No matter what the matter is, as long as it is an matter, it will involve the issue of interests and distribution of interests. Fighting wild beasts is what everyone wants, but how to fight? Who to send to fight? How much to send?
?How much is the army quota for each family? Logistics, contingency, contingency plans... these all require a lot of energy and long time to plan. Such a sudden announcement really messed them up!
Don't look at the last time in the Heavenly Court, the war between demons also suddenly received news. The response of each family and the coordination of Daxia were very fast at that time, and it was almost a war that started at any time.
But that is due to special reasons and special conditions. First of all, there are so many millions of beasts joining in. Secondly, this is a war related to the survival of the interests of the entire country. Internal fights and competitions are internal conflicts and can only be resolved internally.
, but when the matter rises to the national level, no matter how big the hatred is, you have to put it aside first. The country is gone, and there is still a fight!
However, this time is different. Even if the opponent is a savage beast, it is still in the ancient continent, and it can be regarded as an internal conflict, so the above problems are irrelevant. Each family's recruitment quota determines the amount of direct losses, and each family
The family has its own power and official positions in the army and the court. Which general should be sent to fight, whose staff should be sent to plan tactics, etc. These are all matters related to the discovery and face of the family, and must be discussed carefully.
ah!
So when they first heard the news, all the big bosses who were still sharing the same enemy and wanted to give the beast a head-on attack all changed their tune and advised that the matter must be discussed slowly, saying that "the overall situation is the most important thing" and "cannot be reckless", but
Huang Di was still resolute, and even said that he would send troops immediately. Everyone quickly tried to dissuade him, and only then did Huang Di take back his orders with affection and reason.
"Huh, okay, here you go...well, twenty days is enough, right? The Luo family must be avenged!" Huang Di panted heavily and gave the final bottom line with an angry face, as if he wanted to take revenge eagerly.
.
All the ministers responded one after another, "That's right, that's right. Your Majesty deeply feels sorry for the Luo family and wants to seek justice."; "Love the people like a son, have the world in mind, the Holy Emperor is virtuous!"...
When everyone left and Huang Di was left alone, Huang Di, who was still angry just now, stroked his beard and laughed reservedly. However, he was too happy and couldn't help but want to laugh, which soon turned into haha.
laughing out loud.
At the same time, Zhuanxu looked up to the sky and appeared beside Huangdi with a smile: "Wonderful, wonderful! Play hard to get, true or false, those people have settled it for the time being and will not pay too much attention to this matter anymore."
Huang Di stroked his beard and smiled: "Things are not that simple. I have used the excuse of attacking the beasts to guide them into short-term profit distribution, but after they have discussed it, they still have to face the problem of whether to fight or not!"
Emperor Zhuanxu nodded with emotion and said: "We can resolve the crisis with just a few words, but in the final analysis, it is still interests that are at work. Today we can use the distribution of interests as an excuse to stabilize them, but in the future they can attack again because they cannot see the benefits. This is an endless cycle."
Na."
"No, the problem has been solved." Huang Di said confidently: "This battle with the barbarian is just a fight! It's just a matter of exposing a few trump cards."
Emperor Zhuanxu was silent when he heard the words. He who was always so carefree rarely shouted to fight or kill, but slowly reminded: "Other trump cards will be exposed if they are exposed, but that trump card..."
"Of course I have this confidence," Huang Di said easily and freely: "Now let's go see Jifeng and his son."
…
He has read all the information on the table, but the result is that there is still no news about Fatty. At this time, he already has a splitting headache, and his newly recuperated body cannot withstand such a heavy load.
of fatigue.
Closing my eyes had little effect. My eyes were completely dark, but there were dots of dark red, silver, and platinum light spots or light patterns flashing by. It was like a kaleidoscope that kept spinning. It was so easy to wait for the little brother.
When I jumped out of this cycle and woke up, less than half an hour had passed without my noticing!
When I woke up, my head still felt heavy. This time, I didn't close my eyes to think. My brain was too tired. I could force myself to sleep just by closing my eyes.
Although I know that I only need to ask Yue Xiaotian or Yi Nan, the current situation is obvious. They are deliberately hiding it from me. Generally speaking, there are only two purposes for doing this, either it is bad luck or a surprise, so I don't care.
Either way, the other party won't tell him honestly, so I need to find some supporting evidence on my own.
So a paradox appeared at this time. After finding sufficient evidence, it is equivalent to knowing the truth, and knowing the truth, there is no need to ask. Faced with this situation, the little brother made a decision with his eyes closed.
…
"Tell me, what happened to my brother?"
Outside the palace, Yue Xiaotian was invited over by his younger brother and went straight in without even saying a few polite words.
Yue Xiaotian only hesitated for a moment, then as if he had not hesitated at all, he looked up to the sky and sighed, and in a sad tone he talked about the whole process of searching everywhere after the battle but only finding the body of that man!
"...By the time I found him, his body was already covered in scars and his bones were exposed in many places. I thought I couldn't tell you such a thing, so I kept putting it off until today."
After Yue Xiaotian finished speaking, he stretched out his hand to pat the little brother on the shoulder and tell him not to be too sad, but the palm fell in vain. The little brother stood not far away and stared at his face with complicated eyes.
Even with his thick skin, he felt uncomfortable being stared at by a man like that.
"What are you looking at me doing?"
"Let me see if you have finished editing it! Just like that? The plot of the story is not rich!" A smile appeared on the corner of the boy's mouth.
"Ah?...You said I made it up? I don't know what's good and what's good!" Yue Xiaotian was surprised and quite angry.
The younger brother smiled and shook his head: "At first I was worried about finding any excuse to talk out my words, but you just figured it out all by yourself."
"First of all, when I asked you a question, you started telling the story almost without hesitation. It can be seen at a glance that you had planned it!"
Yue Xiaotian relaxed a lot when he heard this and said, "What's so strange about this? I've been preparing these words since you were unconscious, but I was just afraid of irritating you and didn't say them, but since you asked
I won’t just say that.”
"Okay, even if what you said is true," the little brother smiled and continued to throw out his own evidence: "Your expression is too pretentious, why are you pretending to be so sad? My brother is the same as you.
Friends or something else? Besides, I never told you what my brother looked like, so how could you find his body?"
"Even if you have your own information and know what my brother looks like, how can you explain that when I ask you, you can tell such a basic and complete story?"
Yue Xiaotian was stunned for a moment, and then shouted: "Didn't I just say it just now? I've been preparing to tell you about this for a long time..."
"No, no, no!" The younger brother shook his head repeatedly to stop him, and said: "Although you barbarians are impatient and say anything, it is a matter of life and death. You didn't even say a word like telling me to be mentally prepared.
Isn’t it too false to just tell a story when you open your mouth?”
Yue Xiaotian stared blankly, and Yi Nan's clear laughter came from the palace: "Okay, stop pretending, I should have thought of it earlier, you can't deceive him, this guy is totally weird!"
The younger brother smiled and said nothing, looking at the palace door quietly. Yi Nan came out first. The person following her, even without looking, just by feeling the aura with a combat power of only 5, he knew who it was.
!
"Hey, here! You are becoming less and less mature. How can you still be considered a man if you follow a woman behind you?"
There were no tears, the feelings between the men were deep and intense. The two hugged each other quietly, and there was no words between them. The "bang bang" slap on the back was obviously made with a lot of force.
"Come on, drink!"
The little brother let out a loud roar, shouting out the frustration and tension he had felt these past few days, shouting out the repressed anger deep in his heart, and like a magic trick, dozens of bottles of pure alcohol-like spirits brewed by barbarians popped up. The little brother was impatient.
He opened a bottle and sprinkled it on the ground.
"My brother! You are the only one who hasn't come back yet! I don't care whether you are alive or dead, this wine is gone!"
