Chapter 322 It's not shameful to surrender to the strong!
"Everyone be quiet! Where is the opinion of the Imperial Master?"
Come back to your senses,
Glancing coldly at the various ministers who were arguing, Dezan looked at National Master Cookie, who had been silent.
"Your Majesty... what I mean... is the same as Lord Khan!"
Bowing slightly, Cookie seemed to have expected Dezan to ask this question, and replied calmly.
"National Master, why are you like this?"
"Exactly, why did you become like this when you came back from a trip to the Dragon Kingdom? We Tubo are the kings of the west. With hundreds of thousands of sophisticated cavalry, are we really afraid of the Dragon Kingdom?"
"I'm so angry!"
"Integrity! Where is the integrity of my Tubo? The Tang Dynasty was so powerful back then, and I, Tubo, never bowed. How could a Dragon Kingdom..."
Wow!
As soon as Cookie finished speaking, the hall became increasingly noisy. Many ministers directed their conflicts at Khan and Cookie, no longer caring about their status.
"That's enough! Imperial Master, what's your reason?"
Seeing this, Dezan's face turned cold, and the hall instantly became quiet.
"Your Majesty, I have only one reason. One month ago, the Yin Sect disciples came down the mountain for unknown reasons, and there were also the strongest Yin Sect disciples who issued orders to all the princes and kingdoms, and they must submit their household registration lists! From then on... all the princes and kingdoms...
Everyone who fell into decline took the initiative to submit their household registration lists, but Long Guo... not only did not submit their household registration lists, it is said that they also arrested the Yinmen disciples who came to "deliver orders"."
Cookie spoke lightly.
"What? Not only did you fail to hand over the household registration list, but you also arrested the Yin Sect disciples? This... is too violent..."
The hall fell into deathly silence for a moment, and even if a pin dropped, you could hear it clearly.
Many ministers looked at each other, suddenly regretting what they had just said.
Although the reason given by Cookie was simple, straightforward and simple, it clearly understood the strength of the Dragon Kingdom. Not handing in the household registration list showed that the Dragon Kingdom was not afraid of the Yinmen. The fact that he captured the Yinmen disciples with his backhand showed that the Dragon Kingdom was not only
Have courage and strength.
It is simply impossible for other secular countries to win over the core disciples of the Hidden Sect who are at the peak of the ninth rank.
Tubo is even worse.
That is to say, the Yinmen disciples did not come to send orders to Tubo, otherwise Tubo would obediently hand over the household registration list to ensure completeness.
"Is this true?"
Dezan's face became a little more solemn unconsciously.
"Your Majesty, this happened at the gate of the palace. Many people saw it with their own eyes. It must be true. I feel that if we, Tibetans, do not pay tribute... there may be only one result in the end.
After all, we had some grudges with Long Guoyi Bolou.
Likewise, there is no shame in surrendering to the strong, especially in a country like the Dragon Kingdom."
Cookie spoke frankly again.
"Let me think about it, if it is true as the two Qings said, so what about paying tribute? It is much better than the Dragon Kingdom to attack first. The Dragon Kingdom King Li Mo's palace is very deep, so try not to provoke him in the future if you can.
....."
Dezan glanced at everyone, his eyes no longer as sharp and arrogant as before, but more helpless and depressed.
"Yes, Your Majesty!"
This time no minister dared to question.
Without it,
In the face of strong men who dare to stand up to Yinmen, you have to put aside your backbone and everything else. Survival is the most important thing.
.........
North of Tubo is Daliang. At this moment, Liangzhou City,
After Li Xuan read the secret letter in his hand, he seemed to have lost his soul. No matter how the old eunuch beside him called, he could not come back to his senses. It was not until Prime Minister Zhang Zhao appeared that he gradually started to react.
"My dear... Gao Xianzhi and Li Guangbi, these two rebels and traitors, actually surrendered to Li Mo and surrounded Chang'an. What should we do? How much did I trust them in the first place? But they actually used this to repay me!"
Li Xuan grabbed Zhang Zhao's arm as if grasping the last straw.
"Your Majesty...we lost! Completely lost!"
Zhang Zhao looked at Li Xuan, whose hair was scattered and his eyes were blank, while he smiled bitterly and shook his head, feeling even more bitter in his heart.
Facts have proved that not everyone is a real dragon emperor,
The Li Xuan that he identified was actually an incompetent "prince" who was sent to Liangzhou. Without the support of Gao Xianzhi and Li Guangbi, he was nothing. It was ridiculous that the two of them had been plotting before and wanted to take away the power of Gao Xianzhi and Li Guangbi.
.
It turns out that they had already voted for Li Mo and had been acting with them.
Of course, the biggest mistake that Great Liang made was to provoke the evil god Li Mo on the day when the Dragon Kingdom was founded. If it hadn't been for that stupid move... maybe Great Liang would have been able to survive for a few more years.
But what about in a few years?
The final solution may be no different than now.
"If you lose... if you lose... there will be no room for you at all? My Great Liang Emperor has only been in office for a few months... a few months! No! My dear, you must still have something to do, right?
Is that so? We haven’t established a relationship with the Yin Sect disciples, so they will definitely help us, right?”
Li Xuan's eyes were red, and he slumped down on the dragon chair as if he had lost his soul.
His addiction to being emperor has not been enough. Only half of the seventy-two concubines in the Three Palaces and Sixth Court have been canonized. If possible, he will always be the emperor of Great Liang.
How can you accept it if you just admit defeat now?
"Your Majesty... if you want to survive... just find a way to leave Liangzhou City. As for the Yin Sect disciples... they don't pay attention to the secular country at all. Just a household registration list is simply
Won’t help us.”
After taking a deep breath, Zhang Zhao did not salute again and left the hall decisively.
Not bad as expected,
After the Dragon Kingdom captured Chang'an City and beheaded Anlu Mountain, it would definitely counterattack Daliang. How many imperial guards did Liangzhou have? Can they stop the Dragon Kingdom's cavalry?
"Leave? No! I want to live and die with my palace!"
Looking at Zhang Zhao's leaving figure, Li Xu murmured to himself, becoming more and more crazy.
Unfortunately, after Zhang Zhao left, the maids and eunuchs in the hall fled when they saw something was wrong. In the end, only Li Xuan was left sitting alone on the dragon chair, maintaining the last dignity of the Great Liang, looking extremely pitiful.
But there must be something hateful about poor people,
If he could get to this point, wouldn't it mean that Li Xuan was seeking his own death?
If he hadn't provoked Li Mo, this day wouldn't have come so early, and at least he would have no problem gathering together the Three Palaces and Sixth Courtyard.
...
The secular world can no longer be calm because of the Dragon Kingdom's actions. Then the general trend of the world will be reorganized and the Hidden Sect will no longer be calm.
In front of the mouth of a deep valley, several figures fell one after another.
Looking up, I saw lush greenery on both sides of the valley. Centennial trees can be seen everywhere. There are also many rare birds and animals in the woods. A clear stream meanders in the valley. The beauty of the scenery is comparable to the fairy tales written in the book.
Cave.
There is also a huge stone tablet standing at the mouth of the valley, with the word "Yaogu" engraved on it.
"Elder brother, what should we do now?"
Looking at the looming corner of the ancient building in the valley, a disciple said.
The group of people was none other than Qin Jian and his group who wanted to put all the blame on "Mu Han" in order to evade responsibility.
"Junior sister probably hasn't been here before!"
Looking around, Qin Jian frowned slightly.
"Senior Brother, we traveled all night without daring to stop and took shortcuts. We must be ahead of Senior Sister."
The disciple nodded heavily.
Although Gu Xixue is already an innately strong person, he is sure of this.
"Okay! Then call the door!"
Qin Jian nodded, then turned around and looked into the depths of the valley. At the same time, he picked up his cultivation and shouted,
"The people from Yaogu quickly sent Mu Han to the entrance of the valley. I will go to Yunmeng Mountain to plead guilty, otherwise... don't blame me, Yunmeng Mountain, for being rude!"
Buzz!
Qin Jian was born with half-step innateness, but with deliberate actions, the sound reverberated back and forth in the valley like a loud bell, causing birds to fly in fright and fish to jump!
