Chapter 424(2/2)

Chuanxiao's expressionless face, "Those who know the current affairs are heroes. When I advised you, you insisted on not listening, and ended up today.

Don’t blame the ruthlessness of being a brother.”

The sword is passed on to reveal the meaning of death.

Facing death, he became much more calm. His lips were closed and his eyes were staring at Chuanxiao, without reprimand, without anger, only pity.

Chuanxiao seemed unable to stand this gaze, and he waved, "Execute!"

A subordinate called down the mechanism, and the huge rock fell from the head of the sword.

...

Imperial Palace, Tai Chi Hall.

The morning court today was longer than before. In addition to discussing the government affairs, Duke of Lu reported on the peace talks between the Northern Zhou and the Ming Dynasty. The progress of this matter was not going well. Zhu Liye issued an order to reach a peace talks with the Northern Zhou Dynasty before the tenth birthday of the October 10th. People in the court also discussed it.

Some people advocate retreating.

Shenxiangou is too far from the border. Although it is a fortress, its terrain is low-lying and is separated from Fenghuangling. It is easy to defend and difficult to attack for the Northern Zhou Dynasty, but it is not friendly to the Ming Dynasty. Now that the Northern Zhou Dynasty is defeated and its vitality is severely damaged, once it is corrected, it will inevitably lead to war. Although the Ming Dynasty has strong national strength, the national treasury has been tight for years of war, and the maintenance of the troops garrison is too expensive. Since this is the case, it is better to return it and ask for some compensation.

Some people advocate garrison.

The power of the emperor comes to the dynasty. Since ancient times, the Emperor Qin, Han Wu, Tang Zong and Song Zu, had no more than to gain the reputation of the emperor for the rest of his life. Since it was exchanged for blood from the soldiers, there was no reason to withdraw troops.

People from both factions were talking, but there was no result.

Zhu Liye did not say a word, but listened to the ministers' arguments, but he made a decision in his heart, but he would not speak. Over the years, he has become accustomed to letting the ministers speak and then be the referee himself.

"Duke of Lu, what do you think?"

The ministers immediately stopped and looked at Duke Lu. This matter was originally the Duke Lu who was leading the negotiations. The emperor threw the problem to him, so they were worried.

Duke Lu was a master who figured out His Majesty's will. He knew that His Majesty wanted to withdraw his troops and asked for compensation, but it was not something the emperor could say when he won. If the emperor wanted to fight, he would not take the opportunity to transfer Xue Huai back to the capital with the reason of a "birthday banquet".

If he were in normal times, he would definitely report directly, and the contribution of victory was His Majesty's, and the decision to withdraw the troops was from Duke Lu. If there were any problems in the future, it would also be Duke Lu's problem. Your Majesty would not be wrong.

It's clear that I like to take a slap in the dark.

But today is different, because there is someone waiting outside the Tai Chi Hall to meet the saint. He walked out of the ministers and said, "Long live the report. The officials are not doing anything about war, so they dare not make any comments."

How could Zhu Liye not hear what he meant? "Who can discuss it according to my beloved?"

Lu State is fair, "In theory, it is best to decide the city by Marshal Xue, but he is the most suitable one. However, Duke Xue is ill and has not been able to go out to court. However, there is also someone who is most familiar with the two countries when fighting with Chu and Zhou. You might as well listen to his opinions."

"who?"

"King Yinyang Zhao Langjiang."

Zhu Liye said, "Xuan Zhao laid the river into the palace!"

The eunuch passed the order down, and soon Zhao Langjiang walked into the Tai Chi Hall wearing a python robe and a golden knife.

The civil and military officials of the court were all staring at the young prince. The golden sword entered the hall, and the honor only Xue Huai, the King of Dingbei, and he enjoyed in the entire Ming Dynasty. It can be seen how this newly-risen general? He was favored by His Majesty and couldn't help but discuss it.

When Zhao Lianjiang entered the capital, the matter of King Dingbei led his horses had already spread throughout the capital. Over the past few days, there were more cars and horses to visit Duke Anguo's old mansion. Even the vendors who set up stalls to sell cold noodles at the streets could see another powerful man in the dynasty who lived in. However, the civil and military officials of the court visited Zhao Lianjiang, and the prayers at the door were piled up in a mountain, but Zhao Lianjiang stayed in the door, either practicing swords in the mansion, or accompanying his wife and teasing his son, but never took a step out of the mansion. Therefore, when Zhao Lianjiang appeared, it was the first time that many people saw him.

Zhao Langjiang has a burly figure, thick eyebrows and big face, walking and walking. When several old ministers saw him, they couldn't help but change their faces. They all lowered their heads, and could not help looking at each other, with a horrified god on their faces.

"My minister Zhao Langjiang will meet with Your Majesty!"

Zhao Langjiang was the first time he met the saint. He had already performed ceremony in the Ministry of Rites before sunrise. He was no stranger to this. He knelt on the ground, bowed three times and kowtowed nine times, and performed the rituals of his subjects.

Zhu Liye said, "Zhao Aiqing is calm."

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

Zhu Liye said, "I am very relieved when you made great contributions in Yinyang last year. However, the border is tight and I have not transferred you back to Beijing. You won't blame me, right?"

Zhao Langjiang said, "I dare not."

Zhu Liye said, "Raise your head!"

"I am afraid of rushing to Longyan."

These words were boring, but there was no way. Although Zhao Langjiang was unhappy in his heart, he did not express any feelings. He thought, don’t come to the capital if you have nothing to do in the future.

"I forgive you for not guilty!"
