Father Zai Tian squinted at Zhen Jian and asked, "What did Master Zhen say......
Can it represent the will of His Majesty the Great Chu Emperor?
” Chu Li, who was on the throne, immediately said loudly when he heard this: "Of course I can represent!"
I will never agree to such an unreasonable request!
” Father Zai Tian laughed and said slowly: "Okay, since your country does not agree to our Great Khan's request, it's okay, our Great Khan has given a total of two choices, and the first choice is only the first one." ” Chu Li asked, "Is there another choice?"
” Zai Father Tian said: "The second choice is to apologize with money, and the Chu State needs to give me 10 million Tiele as compensation for my crimes." ” Everyone in the palace was eyelids when they heard this, ten million!
What are you kidding, where is there so much money in the treasury now, Zhen Jian in order to build a water army, there are only three million guan left in the treasury, and these three million guan are still reserved for emergency use, in case there is a natural disaster and disaster relief or something.
Zhen Jian raised his eyebrows and looked at Zai Father Tian, and said loudly: "There is no money." ” Zai Father Tian turned his head to look at Chu Li and asked, "May I ask if His Majesty the Emperor of Chu State also replied like this?"
” Chu Li nodded without hesitation: "That's right, I won't agree to this request." ” "Alas......"
Father Zai Tian pretended to sigh and said, "Since your country is so insincere, then the foreign minister can only go back and report to the Great Khan truthfully, and I hope that Master Zhen will not regret it when the time comes." ” Zhen Jian said coldly: "Are you threatening Master Ben?"
” "Don't dare."
Father Zai Tian smiled and said, "Master Zhen caused the four princes and national teachers of our Great Khan to die tragically in the territory of Great Chu, and there is no remorse at all, although our Great Khan is as broad-minded as the sea, but he can't accept such a bullying, Master Zhen, are you ready to meet the wrath of our Great Khan?"
” Zhen Jian walked slowly in front of him, because he was half a head taller than Zai Father Tian, so he needed to look down at him, the two were only a foot apart, Zhen Jian's face was gloomy, and he said word by word: "You actually dare to threaten this Taishi!"
” Seeing Zhen Jian's vicious appearance, Zaifu Tian was scared, but he thought that as Tiele's envoy, he couldn't weaken Tiele's national prestige, so he still straightened his waist and said: "Master Zhen can say whatever he wants, anyway, Chu State doesn't have any sincerity, then we only have Taoist soldiers to meet!"
” As soon as these words came out, the whole audience was in an uproar, and they openly said such things, which was a complete failure of diplomacy and the two countries were about to go to war.
Zhen Jian sneered: "Dare to say such a thing in front of my Great Chu Emperor above the main hall, do you have my Chu State in your eyes?"
” Zai Father Tian also responded with a sneer, and did not answer, although he did not speak, his expression had already given an answer: "Can Chu State enter my Tie Le's magic eye?"
” "Good!
You're good!
Zhen Jian said loudly, "Someone!"
Tiele envoy Zaifu Tian threatened the emperor and national teacher of Chu State on the top of the main hall, despised the prestige of my Great Chu State, the crime is unforgivable, pushed down, beheaded to show the public, and the head was sent to Honglu Temple and handed over to the Tiele Mission!
” Hearing this, Zai Father Tian was shocked, and said in a trembling voice: "You......
You dare to kill me!
” Zhen Jian glared at him and said proudly, "Why don't I dare to kill you!"
” "The two countries are at war, and they will not be killed!"
When Zai Father Tian saw two palace guards rushing into the palace, he shouted in horror, "Aren't you afraid of the wrath of our Great Khan!"
” "I also want to ask Yulin Zhentuo, if I am afraid of the anger of this master!
Push it down!
Chopped!
” The two guards in front of the palace came up directly, one left and one right, and dragged them outside, and Zai Fu Tian struggled frantically and shouted: "You can't do this!"
You can't kill me!
I am the envoy of Tieler, and you are bringing about your own destruction!
You can't kill me, Your Majesty, you can't kill me......"
Zai Father Tian's voice went out of the main hall, and gradually went away, everyone in the hall looked at each other, no one squeaked, everyone knew that this time the Chu State was in trouble, and the main culprit in the trouble was naturally Zhen Jian, and Emperor Chu Li was an accomplice, and their ministers and all the people of Great Chu were all victims.
In fact, Chu Li is also a little confused, he is peaceful by nature, and he will never do such a thing as killing the envoys of other countries, Zhen Jian suddenly wanted to kill the envoy of Tiele, it was indeed a bit unexpected by him, but it was just surprise, some of the words said by the envoy of Tiele did make him very unhappy, and he dared to threaten him and Zhen Jian in front of so many ministers in this hall, this is simply an act of contempt for Da Chu, kill it.
However, the ministers didn't think so, and at this time, Wu Zaiyan, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, suddenly stepped forward and said loudly: "Your Majesty, please quickly issue an order to forgive Tie Le's envoys and kill his father, and you can't let Zhen Taishi Hu come, otherwise Tie Le will come and the whole country will be worried!"
” "Yes!
Emperor!
Xu Wei, the squire of the military department, also came out and said, "Your Majesty, stop it quickly, otherwise there will be no room for recovery." ” Next, several ministers came out to invite, Zhen Jian looked at them silently on the side, did not speak, these people have one thing in common, they are all from the gate valve.
The gate valve family is a very special group in Dachu, and generally has a very strong heritage, because they have a long heritage, and some can even experience several dynasties, such a strong heritage, creating their strong economic strength and connections, every medium-sized and large gate valve family will have clansmen who hold important positions in the court, and some even have more than one, and there are people in the court who are easy to do.
Originally, this was nothing, but whenever the gate valve family was in troubled times, they would speculate and look for powerful forces as backers, and at the same time provide help to the backers and support the backers to seize the world, which is a kind of investment.
They are very greedy, in order to strengthen themselves, they will do a lot of illegal things, such as selling illegal salt, tax evasion, and the final loss is the country, but the country generally does not care about these small things, who makes them meritorious.
There are five major valve families in Dachu, and these five major valve families supported Taizu when Taizu raised his army, so they have been sucking the essence of Dachu for hundreds of years.
Zhen Jian has been unhappy with this group of gate valve families for a long time, but he has not moved them, this time, he wants to see how these gate valve families will oppose him this time, whether they will touch his bottom line, once he touches his bottom line, he has to take action.
Facing the invitation of this group of ministers, Chu Li frowned, he was most annoyed by this kind of controversial thing, once this kind of controversy appeared, he had only one choice, everything was based on Zhen Jian's choice.

So he waved his hand without hesitation and said, "Don't persuade me, I think Zhen Jian is doing the right thing, that Father Zai......
Tian, as a foreign minister, but he does not respect the prestige of the Great Chu State, and openly threatens me and Master Zhen on the main hall, if this matter can be endured, how can I have the prestige of the Great Chu State!
” "Your Majesty!
That's not how the words ......."
Zhen Jian finally spoke at this time: "Ladies and gentlemen, don't persuade anymore, today's father Tian must die, if you continue to persuade again, I am afraid that you will also be very bad." ” Zhen Jian was warning them, and several people immediately stopped talking and returned to the queue, but they were still secretly exchanging glances.
Not long after, a guard came to report: "Report to Master Zhen and the emperor, Tiele envoy Zaifu Tian has been killed, and the head is outside the palace." ” Zhen Jiandao: "Don't dirty the palace, wrap the head, send it to Honglu Temple, hand it over to the Tiele envoy group, and pass on the order of the Taishi to order them to leave the capital before sunset today!"
” "Yes!"
The guard was ordered to retreat, and above the main hall, there was silence, and everyone had different expressions on their faces.
The next court meeting was held in a depressing atmosphere, and it didn't take long for the court to disperse.
Zhen Jian had just left the palace gate, and Qin Xueyang from behind caught up and stopped him, and before Qin Xueyang could speak, Zhen Jian smiled and said, "You must be asking me why I am so impulsive today, right?"
” Qin Xueyang said: "Although I also think that Father Zai's words and deeds are hateful, it is very unwise to anger Tie Le now. ” Zhen Jian said leisurely: "I'm afraid that the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty also think like you." ” Qin Xueyang couldn't help but nodded, indeed, the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty thought that they should not kill the envoys of Tiele, because in this way there would be a complete rupture between them and Tiele, and they also went abroad to unilaterally tear up the Loess Gang Covenant, Tiele could completely send troops to Dachu, and the division was famous.
Zhen Jian smiled and said, "We and Tie Le, sooner or later, a battle, for now, I am not sure of winning Tie Le, but......
That's an offensive situation, if it's defense, but don't forget, we are the best at defense. ” Qin Xueyang's eyes lit up when he heard this: "What do you mean......"
Zhen Jian nodded and said: "That's right, I deliberately provoked Tie Le and let them attack us, after more than a year of preparation, we have become much stronger, plus gunpowder, it should not be a problem to hold our territory, if Tie Le comes to attack, we have a better chance of winning, in fact, to put it bluntly, at this time, whoever takes the initiative to attack will lose the upper hand." ” Qin Xueyang muttered: "The first striker, counteract others." ” "That's it."
Zhen Jiandao, "Originally, I didn't plan to do so, but today at the court meeting, Zai Father Tian threatened me, I am in charge of the court, I need prestige, if this kind of third-rate small character dares to and pee on my head, how can I gain a foothold in the court in the future, Yulin Zhentuo estimated that he had already thought about it, thinking that I would choose to pay compensation because I was afraid, I wanted to go the opposite, not retreat but advance, there is a kind of he will come to attack us, Tiele has just experienced civil strife, if he chooses to attack us at this time, I will call him to return!"
” Qin Xueyang thought for a while and said, "My Great Chu border is quite wide, I don't know where they will attack from?"
” Zhen Jiandao: "I have already considered this problem, the northern land has just been recovered, it seems to be weak, but we have invested a lot of troops there, and it is the most difficult to overcome, if Yulin Zhentuo is not stupid, he should choose to choose from near Xiangfan or Hezhou, rest assured, I will send Gai Qing to prepare and do a good job in border defense." ” Qin Xueyang smiled and said, "It seems that I'm worried in vain." ” Zhen Jian smiled proudly: "I'll do things, don't worry." ” …………………………………… In the afternoon of the same day, Tiele's envoys left the capital in disgrace and returned to China, and the next day, the family began to spread the word among the gate lords, and decided to re-assemble.
This time, the leaders of the various gate valve families were in a bad mood, they thought that Zhen Jian couldn't stay, Tie Le was strong, but Zhen Jian wanted to provoke him, which angered Tie Le, and a battle with Tie Le was inevitable, and they had to think of a way out in advance.
However, they have always been mainly dependent on others, should they be attached to Tiele, even if they are willing to be dependent, is Tiele trustworthy, the Chu people in Tiele are classified as the lowest people.
So someone proposed to deal with Zhen Jian, if Zhen Jian was caught and sent to Yulin Zhentuo, a big battle should be avoided, however, how to arrest Zhen Jian, Zhen Jian himself has strong martial arts and many guards, and it is not easy to arrest him, so this council ended in nothing, and all the gate valves were depressed.
More than a month later, news came from Kuaima that Tiele raised troops to attack Western Tibet.
More than two months later, news came that Tiele had conquered Xibo and captured Xibo Zampu, and Xibo had been included in the border of Tiele, and Tiele's territory had expanded by two or three times in an instant.
The news reached the middle of the court, the Manchu Dynasty civil and military were shocked, the Western Tibetan people were brave, the military strength was strong, and they occupied the plateau advantage, easy to defend and difficult to attack, this point has long been ingrained in the hearts of the Manchu Dynasty civil and military, I didn't expect that in just two months, Tiele wiped out the Western Tibet, and you know, Tiele just experienced civil strife last year, and in such a bad situation, it can be defeated in the Western Tibet, it can be seen how powerful Tiele is.
Don't talk about the civil and military of the Manchu Dynasty, even Zhen Jian was very surprised, and had a new understanding of Tiele's military strength, at the same time, Zhen Jian also admired Yulin Zhentuo, Yulin Zhentuo obviously had insight into his intentions, and was not carried away by anger, it can be seen that Yulin Zhentuo's analysis of the situation is also very clear, and before he is absolutely sure, he will never attack Chu State, Liang State and Xiongnu originally spent too much national strength to attack Chu State, neglected the north, and his Tiele clan can take the opportunity to rise, Chu State is good at defending, and if you want to destroy Chu, you can only kill with one blow.
Zhen Jian suddenly had a feeling of meeting an opponent in chess, and said with a touch of conscience, if he was not a traverser, Yulin Zhentuo would probably be invincible in this era, just like Genghis Khan in history.
Yulin Zhentuo chose to attack Western Tibet, it was a wise move, to destroy Tubo, the land and people of Tubo and all the resources are owned by Tiele, the resources of a country, that is unimaginable, Tiele will recover at an unimaginable speed, and grow rapidly.
And from then on, Tiele no longer had to worry about the external invasion of the West, and he could deal with the Chu State with one mind.
In this vast land, only the two great powers of Chu and Tiele are left to confront each other.
The civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty expressed panic about Tie Le's annihilation of Xifan, will it be their Chu State next?
Among them, the most panicked are the gate valve families, after all, their family has a big business, and once the country collapses, they will be the most unlucky.
So, they met in secret again, and at the beginning of this meeting, Gusu Wu said a sentence: "No one is allowed to leave unless a useful strategy is discussed today!"
