Chapter 145 Refuse to make peace! Slap the prime minister! Daxia declares war! Hungary
Chapter 145 Refuse to negotiate peace! Slap the prime minister! Daxia declares war! The Huns are furious!
"His Royal Highness."
"The peace agreement was signed by Prime Minister Li. On the order of Lord Yang, I ask His Highness the Crown Prince to rush to the border as soon as possible."
The sound resounded through the crowd and directly into the jade chariot.
Inside the jade chariot.
Gu Jinnian, who was closing his eyes and relaxing, suddenly opened his eyes and frowned.
Li Shan signed the peace agreement?
What does this matter have to do with Li Shan?
Your Majesty's secret order is to let you make your own decision.
Li Shan is just an assistant.
Even if he didn't come, it should be Yang Kai and Yang Shangshu who signed the deed.
But inside the jade chariot, Mr. Gu couldn't help but sneer.
This made Gu Jinnian even more curious.
"grandfather."
"What do you think about this?"
Gu Jinnian looked at the old man and asked curiously.
"Nothing to see."
"He has surfaced."
Mr. Gu seemed very calm, and he was not surprised at all by what Li Shan did.
"Surfacing?"
"Grandpa, do you mean that there is something wrong with Mr. Li?"
Gu Jinnian instantly understood what the old man meant.
But he was a little surprised.
If there is a problem with the dignified Prime Minister of Great Xia, it will indeed be a big deal and unimaginable.
"Everyone in the court has problems, and the forces behind them are complicated. The higher the official position, the greater the interests behind them."
"And there are often many things that cannot be controlled by an individual. For example, if grandpa asks you to agree to this peace negotiation, you will also change your mind because of the Gu family."
"It's just that most people do it well and safely. Li Shan showed his flaws this time."
Mr. Gu did not directly explain whether Li Shan had any problems, but used an analytical method to let Gu Jinnian think for himself.
"Showing off?"
Gu Jinnian pondered.
Li Shan's biggest problem was that he jumped over the hierarchy to sign the deed. This matter was handled by the Ministry of Rites. Although Li Shan was the prime minister, he had no right to interfere unless His Majesty issued a secret order.
Otherwise, this kind of behavior is an overstep of authority. It not only exceeds the authority of the Ministry of Rites, but more importantly, it exceeds the authority of His Majesty.
Since ancient times, the power of the prime minister and the power of the emperor have been opposed to each other. They may also complement each other, but that was in the early days.
The power of the prime minister assists the imperial power.
But the further you go, the greater the power of the prime minister, and the less power of the imperial power.
When the power of the prime minister exceeds the power of the emperor, there are only two results.
Be killed or usurp the throne.
This is the fate of a prime minister. Since ancient times, few prime ministers have been able to die a good death.
It's not that the emperor is small-minded, but that the influence of the prime minister's power is too great.
When the emperor's voice becomes quieter and quieter in the court, and the voice of the prime minister becomes louder and louder, then not killing the prime minister means slow death.
only.
This matter is obviously not overstepping the authority of the prime minister. It is obvious that Li Shan has his own selfish motives.
Many possibilities emerged in Gu Jinnian's mind.
And Mr. Gu's voice sounded again.
"Your Majesty sent him."
"It's intentional."
"After hiding for so many years, it's time to show off."
Mr. Gu saw things very clearly, and he pointed out a key point that made Gu Jinnian completely realize it.
During this peace negotiation, Emperor Yongsheng sent Li Shan over, making it clear that this was a test.
He wanted to use the peace negotiation to test what kind of person Li Shan was.
He can have selfish motives, he can take bribes and bend the law, and he can hold power, but he must never collaborate with the enemy.
After the difficulties of establishing virtue, Emperor Yongsheng did not trust any of the officials in the court, and he was wary of everyone.
But he was determined to be a good emperor, so without absolute evidence for many things, Emperor Yongsheng did not want to kill his ministers.
He did not want to follow Taizu's path, he hoped to use his own abilities to intimidate all officials, and also hoped to use his own abilities to let all officials see that he was a good emperor.
But Emperor Yongsheng could tolerate everything, but he had his own bottom line.
Gu Jinnian completely figured it out.
test.
Everything is a trial.
Your Majesty is testing Li Shan, and His Majesty is also testing many things, including King Qilin and King Ning, including his own old man.
Even His Majesty is still testing himself.
Give yourself the power and see what you do.
yes.
Isn't that what the emperor is like? If you are given the power to do something, no matter what you do or what the result is, you cannot directly change the fate of the country.
But through one thing, you can know who you are actually standing with.
The emperor was suspicious.
It's really scary to think about.
"Jin Nian."
"Next, do what you want to do and do what you should do."
"Remember, no matter what the emperor does, he will not be suspicious of you. You are his nephew, and you are following the path of Confucianism and Taoism, and you have great righteousness."
"They are different. They are officials and the emperor's ministers."
"Li Shan showed his flaws and your Majesty will deal with him. You have to remember that you have only one goal now."
"To revitalize our country and make the people prosperous, this is my grandfather's expectation for you. No matter what means you use or what you do, as long as you care about the people, you will be undefeated."
Mr. Gu spoke seriously, this was his warning.
No matter what happens, if you stand on the same front as the people, you will be invincible.
"My grandson understands."
Gu Jinnian nodded.
Soon, the deed was delivered into the jade chariot.
Gu Jinnian looked at the deed carefully.
The conditions for each country are clearly stated above.
The Fuluo Dynasty was willing to give 50,000 taels of silver, and the Jin Dynasty sent 100,000 monks to build temples at their own expense to save the souls of the two countries.
The Daxia Dynasty only needed to agree to revise the history books and then agree to the establishment of a defense line by the Huns. However, there was a special note that the defense line would be built under the supervision of the Daxia Dynasty.
After reading this deed.
Looking back on this Jin year, I am indeed a little confused.
The Fuluo Dynasty produced silver.
Monks from the Jin Dynasty.
The Daxia Dynasty only needed to revise the history books and agree to set up a defense line, and then agreed to return the twelve cities on the border. What does this have to do with giving it away for free?
In fact, it is not a big deal whether history books should be changed or not, because it is not to erase this period of history, but to change it in a light and non-heavy way to promote friendship and unity.
See what benefits the other party offers.
Twelve cities were returned just to revise the history books. This is nothing.
As for building a defense line, it is a bit excessive, but not too much. After all, it is okay to build a defense line after the twelve cities are returned. When the war actually starts, this kind of defense line will have no effect.
This deed looks pretty good no matter how you look at it.
Yes.
not bad.
The conditions of this deed, no matter what they are, are only good for the Great Xia Dynasty and have no harm.
Now Gu Jinnian finally understood why Li Shan dared to directly exceed his authority.
He did have a reason to overstep his authority.
Because of this condition, it is too good to be picky.
If it is such a deed, Li Shan really has a reason to explain it.
"Grandpa, look."
Gu Jinnian handed the deed to Mr. Gu.
The latter just glanced at Qiwen, and then sighed.
"Jin Nian."
"Don't you understand His Majesty's intentions yet?"
Mr. Gu looked at Gu Jinnian and couldn't help but remind him.
When he said this, Gu Jinnian really didn't understand.
"From the beginning to the end, His Majesty never wanted to negotiate a peace."
"This battle."
"Daxia must fight."
Mr. Gu spoke out, just three words, but Gu Jinnian was stunned in the jade chariot.
This was indeed something he didn't expect.
Never thought about negotiating peace from beginning to end?
Sensing Gu Jinnian's doubts, Mr. Gu didn't say a word, but asked the team to move on.
About half an hour later.
When the large team was about to arrive at Tongguan City, Mr. Gu suddenly spoke.
"stop."
He spoke, then looked calmly and walked down from the jade chariot.
Gu Jinnian didn't hesitate and immediately followed his grandfather out of the car.
After the grandfather and grandson stepped off the jade chariot.
Mr. Gu asked the team to move on and return to Tongguan Military Camp.
He took Gu Jinnian to another place.
Gu Jinnian didn't know what the old man wanted to do, but he didn't ask further and followed his old man forward.
The two walked for a long time.
Almost half an hour.
Finally, in a plain, the old man stopped.
In the distance, there is a cemetery.
However, it seemed deserted.
This cemetery is so big that we can only use some gravel to build a city wall for protection.
There were some soldiers guarding the entrance to the cemetery, but after seeing Mr. Gu appear, these soldiers all stood at attention.
"I have met Duke Zhen Guo."
They spoke one after another, showing great respect.
Mr. Gu just nodded without saying anything, but led Gu Jinqian away.
An old man and a young man walked into the cemetery.
Suddenly, a gust of breeze blew.
Waves of yellow sand blew under your feet, and inside the cemetery were stone piers, which were strangely unlike other tombs.
The cemetery is very large inside.
Stone pillars appeared in front of Gu Jinnian one by one.
The yellow sand is rolling, and there is an indescribable desolation.
There are no statues, nothing special, not even tombstones, just these stone mounds.
However, there are some things placed on these stone piers.
But these things are weird.
The old man moved forward. After walking for a while, he suddenly stopped.
Then he pointed at the stone pier here and spoke slowly.
"Jinnian, look down."
He spoke.
Gu Jinnian lowered his head and looked at the stone pier. On the stone pier was a piece of extremely dried human skin. The skin was stiff and yellowish, but there were light blue patterns on it.
The font was distorted, but Gu Jinnian knew what it meant.
【Summer Dog】
For a moment, Gu Jinnian couldn't help but frown.
And Mr. Gu's voice sounded again.
"This is Daxia, Shankui Army, soldiers of the fifth phalanx, a total of one hundred and seventy-two people."
"Thirteen years ago, twelve cities on the border were lost. The soldiers stationed in the cities of Daxia hid in the city and resisted the Huns. They were captured alive, had the word "Xia Dog" carved on their backs, and then tore off their skins and sent them to Daxia."
Mr. Gu spoke calmly. There was no sadness or anger in his tone, but a kind of calmness.
However, after hearing this, Gu Jinnian couldn't help but fell silent.
Immediately afterwards, Mr. Gu took a few steps forward.
He pointed to a stone pier and spoke.
"Look again."
As the sound rang out, Gu Jinnian looked over and saw several leg bones placed on the stone pier.
"On the 15th day of the sixth lunar month in the first year of Yongsheng, the twelve cities were lost. The ninth battalion of the Tiankui Army fought to 240 people. The Huns made them kneel down and shouted that the people of Daxia are like pigs and dogs. The Tiankui Army
Of the two hundred and forty people, not one of them knelt down and would rather die than surrender."
"The leg bones were cut off, the body was thrown into the wilderness, and he was tortured."
After Mr. Gu said this, he pointed to another place.
Gu Jinnian looked away.
But what is surprising is that on this stone pier is a pot.
"On the 15th day of the sixth lunar month in the first year of Yongsheng, the Xiongnu invaded the city and massacred the army. A family was getting up early to cook. Unconsciously, the Xiongnu soldiers rushed into the family and killed the man.
The newborn baby was thrown into a boiling water boiler, and the pot was evidence of the crime, and his mother was abused by dozens of people."
Mr. Gu's voice was extremely calm, without any emotion.
But he took another step forward.
"On June 16th, at the third quarter of the Yin hour, fifteen children under the age of ten were trampled to death by the Huns' war horses, with bones all over their bodies broken."
"On June 16th, at a quarter of noon, twelve cities fell, thousands of Daxia people were gathered together, 3,450 people, old, young, women and children, no one was spared."
Mr. Gu was talking about one thing after another. His tone seemed calm, but every thing he said shocked Gu Jinnian greatly.
Especially when you see all kinds of evidence of crime, how can you calm down?
Soon, Mr. Gu came to a strange stone pier. These stone piers were not big, but they were densely packed. It looked like there were at least five hundred of them.
"On June 21, the Huns captured 549 children under the age of ten, sealed off four streets, and allowed these children to flee at will. Ten Huns soldiers chased the children with swords and killed every one they saw.
Goug out his eyes and cut off his arms as trophies for the entertainment of the Huns."
When he said this, Mr. Gu fell silent.
There was something touching in his heart.
A few more steps forward.
Mr. Gu continued to speak.
"The Xiongnu soldiers imprisoned my Daxia girl on the first floor, with more than 300 people, the youngest was five years old. That night, the laughter of the Huns spread from inside the city to outside the city."
"After that night, there were more than 300 people, but not a single one was left alive."
"Jin Nian."
When Mr. Gu said this, he suddenly shouted.
Let Gu Jinnian look forward.
this moment.
Gu Jinnian looked forward.
In the deserted cemetery, a huge stone pit appeared. In the stone pit were mountains of bones.
Astonishing.
Mr. Gu looked at the bones here and said with an extremely calm expression.
"People of the Twelve Cities."
"Most of the bones of the people in the twelve cities are here."
"One person, one bone."
The old man spoke up. He used the simplest words to tell the most cruel side of war.
There are more than a hundred thousand bones in this huge pit?
Mountains of corpses.
These are just four words.
But now, it was reflected in front of Gu Jinnian.
After seeing this scene, Gu Jinnian was completely silent.
Mr. Gu just stared at it for a while, then turned around and patted Gu Jinnian on the shoulder.
"Jin Nian."
"You can watch carefully here."
"Wait until you figure out why His Majesty must go to war."
"When to go back."
The old man said nothing more and turned to leave, leaving Gu Jinnian alone here.
As the old man left.
In the cemetery, it seemed even quieter and desolate.
There are no epic stories and no magnificent buildings.
Here, except for stone piers and utensils, there is nothing else.
Gu Jinnian stood here quietly.
Looking at all this.
The old man told Gu Jinnian the most tragic story of Daxia in the simplest way.
This is a piece of history.
It is also a pain in the hearts of all the people of Daxia.
Thirteen years ago.
The Xiongnu defeated the twelve cities of Daxia.
The war was raging, and war horses were galloping in the city.
At this moment.
Black rays of light appeared, and these rays of light swept across the entire cemetery in an instant.
But to outsiders, nothing has changed.
The black gas caused the sky and the earth to change color, and strong winds blew, making it difficult for Gu Jinnian to open his eyes.
And all around, buildings are rising up one after another, forming the scene of an ancient city.
The law!
The roar of war horses sounded.
Figures appeared one after another and rushed towards this ancient city.
The war was raging, and Gu Jinnian saw the chaos and chaos, and also saw a terrifying scene.
A group of Huns' cavalry rushed in. They held swords in their hands and galloped through the city, letting out wanton laughter.
This smile is like that of an evil ghost. When he sees the people in the city, he will kill them with one knife.
The people panicked and dispersed to both sides.
There were children scattered among the crowd, and the Huns' cavalry trampled them into bloody mud without even the slightest hesitation.
The skull was shattered and blood flowed.
It’s not just children, anyone who runs a step slower will turn into pulp.
This group of people were like evil ghosts coming out of the underworld. Their war horses were stained with blood, and their swords were extremely scarlet.
Flames burst out.
The entire city is like a purgatory on earth.
All kinds of frightening sounds sounded, one after another, making people frightened.
Gu Jinnian saw all of this.
In his mind, he couldn't help but recall a memory from his previous life.
Two different time and space.
But the same thing happened.
It's still miserable.
Still utterly heartless.
Hell is empty and the devil is in the world.
Gu Jinnian watched all this helplessly, but he couldn't do anything, and there was nothing he could do.
When the horses' hooves trample them.
Gu Jinnian stretched out his hand to resist, but was unable to do anything because this was an illusion.
The Huns broke into the city. They entered a house and started killing, followed by shrill screams and the sound of women crying and struggling.
They came to the restaurant, picked up a child in their hands, and threw him down from the high restaurant.
The restaurant owner knelt on the ground and cried heartbrokenly.
An old man trembled and ran away, but his legs were cut off directly.
The strong men were directly slaughtered.
The women were mercilessly abused.
The children were crying with despair in their eyes. The pregnant women were in great pain due to excessive fright and running. They lay on the ground and cried. The Huns came on horseback and chopped them off with one knife.
This scene makes people grit their teeth.
This picture makes one's soul tremble.
Daxia's soldiers held up their weapons to block the attack, and they charged almost risking their lives.
But infantry has almost no suspense in front of cavalry.
Four hundred soldiers were almost massacred.
But even so, these soldiers did not choose to retreat.
"General, no more fighting."
"This is a useless effort. We should save our energy and deal with them in the streets. Their cavalry is too powerful."
When a soldier spoke, it was not because he was afraid, but because he thought that his sacrifice would be in vain.
no need.
We should leave this place and use low and narrow places like alleys and streets to fight the Huns.
However, faced with such words.
The leading general looked calm.
"If we retreat, the people will die."
The general spoke calmly.
At this moment, everyone suddenly understood that choosing to fight them here was not a fearless sacrifice.
But it delays time.
Give the people time to escape.
After understanding this, the soldiers were completely speechless.
They stand here without fear of anything.
"kill."
Deafening killing cries rang out.
These soldiers move forward fearlessly.
Half an hour later.
There was only one person left out of more than four hundred people, the only one who survived. His face was covered with blood, some from the enemy, but most of it was the blood of his own compatriots.
His eyes were blurred and his strength was exhausted. The Huns cavalry looked down at him.
His eyes were full of disdain.
"kill."
He was powerless, but at the last moment, his voice was deafening.
Under the bloody light.
He fell down.
No miracles happen.
The Huns hung their corpses on the city wall.
On the city wall.
The soldiers were captured alive one by one and executed on top.
This is a kind of showing off one's strength, and this is a kind of trampling.
However, this is not despair. When the city gate was controlled by the Huns, the city was closed.
After the city gate was completely closed, the real horror emerged.
Turned into hell on earth.
Scenes appeared one after another.
Some people died tragically at the hands of the Huns.
Some people were tortured and killed alive.
Some people became the playthings of these Huns.
The soldiers were tortured so much that they would rather die than surrender.
He saw that some soldiers, with arrows piercing their hearts, still preferred death to surrender in front of the enemy.
He also saw that in order to protect the people, some soldiers deliberately exposed themselves and died under the sword of the Huns.
this moment.
No soldier is afraid of death.
Because they know what they are carrying.
This is the Daxia general.
I don't know how much time passed.
Gu Jinnian woke up from the illusion.
Everything around him was completely calm at this moment.
It's still desolate.
There are still stone piers.
But in Gu Jinnian's eyes, these stone piers had completely changed.
Their absence is a kind of memorial.
But a period of unforgettable hatred.
this moment.
Gu Jinnian completely understood what the old man said.
His Majesty.
There was never any thought of negotiating peace from beginning to end.
Why?
Because your Majesty cannot forget this hatred, and it is impossible for him to forget it.
This is a national feud.
How could it be easily forgotten.
At this moment, Gu Jinnian also fully understood how ridiculous it was to revise history books.
History book revision.
Can this hell on earth be modified?
A few simple strokes of green ink.
But how can people forget this piece of history?
Who dares to forget?
Think of this.
Gu Jinnian took a deep breath. At this moment, he no longer hesitated and walked towards the outside of the cemetery.
Before.
He stood above national interests and thought about this peace negotiation.
He believed that in this peace negotiation, Daxia should not agree to anything.
But now, he completely understands.
Daxia does not need to negotiate peace!
Your Majesty does not want peace!
Because these people will not agree.
Although they are dead, they are still watching to see who will forget them and who is forgetting them.
The more he thought about it, the more angry Gu Jinnian became.
Later generations.
It’s okay if you don’t remember this bloody hatred.
Some people choose to forget.
Some people choose to ignore it.
Some people want to erase it for profit.
Some people even shouted that they should put aside their hatred and look ahead.
How dare you do this?
Is this worthy?
Not ashamed?
Still human?
Gu Jinnian walked out of the cemetery and walked quickly to Tongguan Military Camp.
About half an hour or so.
Gu Jinnian came to Tongguan Military Camp.
Outside the military camp, there were dozens of soldiers standing, holding swords in their hands, and they stood firm regardless of wind or rain.
They are stationed at the border, enduring the most miserable hardships in the world, and protecting the millions of people behind them.
The soldiers saw Gu Jinnian. It seemed that the Duke had informed him before, but they did not stop him.
After meeting Gu Jinnian, everyone was extremely respectful.
"I have met His Highness the Crown Prince."
They were on the border, but they had also heard of Gu Jinnian's reputation.
Justice for the people.
Would rather die than surrender.
Such behavior gave Gu Jinnian an excellent reputation in the military.
You can bow respectfully in front of everyone.
Gu Jinnian immediately bowed back without any airs about the prince.
"You officers and men are guarding one side and protecting your home and country. There is no need for a big salute. It should be Gu who salutes you."
Gu Jinnian bowed deeply to everyone. He was not doing it artificially, but from the bottom of his heart.
If you have not gone to the cemetery before.
It is difficult for him to have such an awareness.
"Your Highness, please."
Feeling such a great gift from Gu Jinnian, these soldiers were somewhat flattered and invited Gu Jinnian to come in.
Soon, Gu Jinnian went straight to the military camp, he was going to find Li Shan.
Inside the military camp.
Before Gu Jinnian left, Li Shan's voice rang in his ears.
"This matter has been decided."
"The conditions of the Xiongnu Kingdom are not harsh at all. The silver does not need to be paid out by Daxia, the mines can be taken back, and the twelve cities can be taken back by just revising the history books."
"Isn't this possible?"
"What else do you want to say?"
"Is it possible that you really want these generals to die before you are willing to do so?"
Li Shan's voice sounded.
Talking to Yang Kai.
After hearing this, Yang Kai's voice responded slowly.
"I'm not saying that the prime minister did something wrong, but that this matter should not be decided directly. I did not agree. Furthermore, His Highness the Crown Prince did not come. Yang does not approve of this matter."
Yang Kai spoke out, his meaning was very simple.
If he didn't agree, the matter wouldn't count.
"Yang Kai."
"Why are you so confused?"
"Furthermore, what will happen if Gu Jinnian comes or not? You are the Minister of Rites, don't you have your own judgment?"
"I would like to ask you, are you satisfied with this condition?"
Li Shan continued.
Hearing this, Yang Kai couldn't help but sigh.
"This condition is indeed feasible, but it is too fast after all."
To be honest, Yang Kai actually knows that this condition is indeed good, but it is too fast. There is no need to be so fast.
You should communicate well.
"Since it's feasible, what else is there to say?"
"Okay, now that I have signed the contract, let's do this."
"After returning to Beijing, I will explain to Your Majesty."
Li Shan didn't say much, he took charge of the matter.
But just as he finished speaking.
Gu Jinnian's voice sounded outside.
"Master Li Xiang."
"No need."
At this moment, everyone in the camp couldn't help but look outside the camp.
Soon, Gu Jinnian walked into the camp.
With calm eyes, he glanced at the people in the camp.
There are generals on the left and right. The old man is not here, Li Shan is sitting in the first place, and Yang Kai is sitting in the first place on the left.
"I'll wait to see His Royal Highness."
Seeing Gu Jinnian, the generals all bowed respectfully to Gu Jinnian.
They were all soldiers under the Duke of Guo, so they naturally showed respect to Gu Jinnian.
And Gu Jinnian also bowed to everyone immediately.
Then he came directly to Li Shan.
"Master Li Xiang."
"There is no need for your Excellency to return to Beijing to explain this matter."
"The lower official does not agree to negotiate peace."
Gu Jinnian spoke calmly, bowed to Li Shan for a moment, and then expressed his thoughts.
"disagree?"
"Why don't you agree?"
Seeing Gu Jinnian's arrival, Li Shan's face was extremely calm. As for what Gu Jinnian said, Li Shan had not changed at all.
"Just because of the revision of history books."
"It is absolutely impossible for me, Daxia, to modify history books."
Gu Jinnian's tone was calm, but his eyes were extremely firm.
"Ah."
"It's really unreasonable."
"Then I'm asking you, how did you agree to negotiate peace?"
Li Shan was a little angry.
In his opinion, the Huns' peace negotiation conditions were so good.
I don't agree to this.
Just because of a conflict of emotions?
Just because you, Gu Jinnian, hate the Huns?
There is no consideration for the country at all.
"Return the Twelve Cities Unconditionally."
"The principal offender, the officer, commits suicide to apologize."
"The king of the Xiongnu kingdom issued an edict to sin against himself."
Gu Jinnian spoke up, this was his request.
But as soon as he said this.
Li Shan smiled.
"Ignorance."
"Why?"
Li Shan was really angry at Gu Jinnian. In his opinion, Gu Jinnian was just talking nonsense here.
"My Daxia soldiers are not afraid of death."
"With my Daxia Dynasty, the national bones are still there."
"I, the people of Daxia, will never forget."
"I, Gu Jinnian, can destroy the Xiongnu's fortunes three times."
"Master Li Xiang."
"Are these enough?"
Gu Jinnian already knew Li Shan's true nature, so he showed no courtesy.
As soon as these words came out, the soldiers in the military camp showed surprise in their eyes.
They didn't expect that Gu Jinnian would be so brave and bellicose to say such words.
"You have no right to interfere in this matter."
"I think you are the Crown Prince, and for the sake of the Duke, I won't argue with you."
Li Shan ignored Gu Jinnian.
He didn't bother to pay attention.
But at this moment, Yang Kai's voice slowly sounded.
"Li Xiang."
"His Majesty's secret order."
"This peace negotiation is entirely decided by His Royal Highness."
Yang Kai spoke up.
Tell His Majesty's secret order.
As soon as these words came out, Li Shan frowned instantly and looked at Yang Kai, who had no expression on his face.
At that moment, Li Shan took a deep breath.
Then he looked at Gu Jinnian.
"His Royal Highness."
"The Huns will not agree to what you just said."
"It's not necessary, just leave it when it's good."
"It is a good thing for the Great Xia Dynasty."
Li Shan spoke up and said this.
"I won't agree."
"Then the Huns will agree to fight."
"Also, why should we just accept it when it's good? The Xiongnu country massacred countless of my Daxia people and killed my Daxia soldiers. This is a blood feud. Returning the twelve cities is what the Xiongnu country should do."
"How come the return of the Twelve Cities from what Prime Minister Li said turned out to be a favor to the enemy?"
Gu Jinnian spoke coldly.
"yes."
"There are indeed some things about the Huns that are outrageous, but after all, this happened thirteen years ago."
"The past has passed. The Great Xia Dynasty cannot fight now."
"Gu Jinnian, have you ever thought about the consequences of your impulse?"
"Hundreds of thousands of troops fight, and countless money and silver are spent."
"If we win this battle, Daxia will have to sacrifice the lives of no less than 100,000 soldiers."
"If we lose this battle, the dynasty will be in danger."
"A moment of anger is not a good thing."
"Do you know this?"
After learning that Gu Jinnian had the final decision-making power, Li Shan was no longer as condescending as before. Instead, he was sincere and hoped that Gu Jinnian could understand some truth.
But after saying these words.
In Gu Jinnian's eyes, it was even more disgusting.
"Li Xiang."
"I, Gu Jinnian, can pay for the military expenses that are wasted."
"Daxia will never forget the dead soldiers."
"Moreover, Daxia will not be defeated."
"Daxia has never been defeated."
"Thirteen years ago, the Huns took advantage of the turmoil in Great Xia and attacked us."
"Thirteen years later, if I, Daxia, are afraid of failure, then in the next thirteen years, what I have lost will continue to be lost, and what I cannot get back will still be lost."
"In short, I have made up my mind and do not agree to negotiate for peace,"
"Master Yang, please write a letter to inform the Huns that Daxia will not negotiate for peace."
"Prime Minister Li has no right to interfere in this matter."
"The deed is void."
"Only the Xiongnu Kingdom will return it unconditionally, and the principal culprit will commit suicide. The Xiongnu Kingdom will issue an edict to compensate one hundred thousand taels of silver, otherwise it will declare war."
Gu Jinnian didn't bother with Li Shan.
Speak your mind directly.
"No."
However, before Yang Kai could say anything, Li Shan stood up directly and denied what Gu Jinnian said.
"Thirteen years have passed since this incident occurred. The current situation should be considered."
"We cannot plunge Daxia into war just because of your wrong thoughts."
"Gu Jinnian, I know you hate me, but you can never do this."
"Thirteen years have passed since the shame of the border. I have to choose to let it go. Daxia needs peace, and Donghuang also needs peace, which will benefit the world."
Li Shan still insisted on his own ideas.
But in Gu Jinnian's opinion, such remarks were full of ridicule.
"Dare to ask Mr. Li."
"What qualifications do you have to say let it go?"
"The shame of the border, nearly a million people died in Daxia, and 200,000 soldiers were massacred."
"Why do you let it go just because you say it?"
"You are not qualified to say forgiveness for them."
"Gu is not qualified to apologize for them."
"This hatred is irreconcilable."
"Every citizen of Daxia should keep this hatred in mind and should not forget it."
"Returning what originally belongs to us requires us to erase the traces of millions of lives."
Gu Jinnian's eyes were cold.
When he said this, his eyes looked at Li Shan as if they wanted to bite people.
"Li Xiang."
"Open your eyes and look. Above the Great Emperor of the Wilderness, there are millions of lonely souls watching you."
"I, Daxia, have 200,000 soldiers, and I am watching you fiercely."
"Their hatred."
"No one is qualified to forget."
"Master Yang, write a letter."
Gu Jinnian was too lazy to talk to him.
He wants to declare war.
Let the Huns take a good look at the character of Daxia.
Let these resentful souls who died tragically take a good look. The Great Xia Dynasty will never forget them.
Remember this grudge.
"Gu Jinnian, are you still worthy of being a scholar? Do you still have any kindness at all?"
"You only have killing in your heart, and your eyes have been blinded by hatred."
"I absolutely do not agree with this matter."
Li Shan didn't care anymore, he still held an opposition attitude.
But the next moment.
Snapped.
Gu Jinnian slapped Li Shan directly, his eyes extremely cold.
"shut up."
"What qualifications do you have to evaluate this prince's Confucianism and Taoism?"
"If you want to give birth on your knees, it's your own business."
"I would like to give you a final warning. This is the Northwest Army Camp, not Daxia Kyoto. I will be polite to you. If I address you as Prime Minister, if you are not polite, who will you be in the eyes of me?"
Gu Jinnian's voice was extremely cold.
And this slap was even more crisp and loud.
The beating made Li Shan silent.
The soldiers in the military camp who were also beaten all had their eyes widened.
They had heard that Gu Jinnian was fierce in his actions, but when they saw him today, they found that the rumors were much more conservative.
Slap the prime minister on the spot?
Only Gu Jinnian dared to do it.
Even Yang Kai was speechless.
Li Shan, who received a slap in the face, did not get furious as expected, but had a sullen face.
It's not that he's afraid of Gu Jinnian.
But what Gu Jinnian said was right, this is the northwest military camp, and Duke Zhen is guarding here. If he dares to mess around, he is afraid that Duke Zhen will appear immediately.
Lord Zhenguo is not a reasonable person.
I'm afraid the situation will be even more embarrassing by then.
"good."
"I understand."
"For such a big matter, let His Royal Highness just mess around."
"I'm going back to Beijing now to wait for the great victory at the border."
Li Shan spoke, he wanted to leave, and his words were strange.
"Need not."
"Just wait here."
"Come here, take good care of Prime Minister Li."
"Protect Li Xiang every step of the way."
"Li Xiang, since His Majesty asked you to come, you'd better not leave until the matter is completely resolved."
Gu Jinnian did not intend to let Li Xiang leave.
Let’s not talk about whether this guy will do something extreme. I’m afraid that if this guy goes again, he will spread all kinds of rumors and cause trouble.
Put pressure on yourself.
It's better to just stay here.
"Gu Jinnian."
"I am the Prime Minister of Great Xia. Do you still want to restrict my travels?"
Li Shan's face was gloomy and terrifying.
"yes."
"Can't Mr. Li see that?"
"I am just guarding against you."
"In this peace negotiation, what authority do you have to sign the contract?"
"Why can you sign the deed?"
"To put it mildly, you are overstepping your authority."
"To put it more seriously, I have to suspect you of collaborating with the enemy and betraying the country."
"Come here, take him into custody and take good care of Prime Minister Li. When the time comes, he will return to the capital with me."
Gu Jinnian spoke frankly.
right.
I just think you are collaborating with the enemy and betraying the country.
Do you have any question?
If not, then be quiet.
"good!"
"good!"
"good!"
"It's good to be a collaborator and traitor, but it's good to be someone who has exceeded his authority."
"His Royal Highness, when I return to the capital, I will read your book."
"Based on that slap just now, the truth will definitely not be kind to you."
Li Shan didn't have any fear.
Some are just angry.
"You won't take it away yet?"
Gu Jinnian was too lazy to listen to Li Shan's chatter here.
At that moment, some soldiers entered the camp directly and forcibly took Li Shan away.
Yang Kai on the side was hesitant to speak.
"Master Yang."
"Write a letter."
Gu Jinnian did not hesitate and asked Yang Kai to draft the letter.
An hour later.
The envelope is sent away.
The royal court of the Huns.
There was also an angry voice.
"Gu Jinnian."
"You really don't know what's good or bad."
——
Brothers, go to other places, and then the code is yellow, and then do the nucleic acid test in the hospital, and you can't leave until the results are available.
My whole body was numb.
I got up in the morning, went out to have breakfast, then went to the hospital and cried.
It was only in the afternoon that I could get back to code.
