The Eldest Daughter is Beautiful and Saucy - Chapter 1587

Chapter 1587 Defeat

Xiao Rongyan turned a deaf ear, raised his feet and walked towards the jade platform…

Murong Li saw his ninth uncle, his nose twitched, but when he thought that he was the emperor of Yan Kingdom, he held it back.

He lowered his eyes and looked at his mother, who had no breath in his arms. Holding back his tears, he first carried his mother’s body back to the bedroom, put her in place, and ordered the Ministry of Rites to arrange the funeral ceremony. He didn’t even have time to change his clothes, so he went back In the main hall, discuss the matter of sending troops to attack the state of Yan this time.

When Murong Li came back, he heard that the officials who accompanied Xiao Rongyan back to Yandu this time told the ministers in the court that the Prince Regent was in danger this time.

“Fortunately, the Prince Regent asked the Prince Regent to drive the car according to the original route, and the Prince Regent went to the city next to him to inspect the epidemic situation. This did not allow the King of Jiujiang to succeed. Otherwise… the Prince Regent would not be able to stand here!” The accompanying officials talked about this, and their expressions were still more than enough, and they were afraid after a while.

Those Jiujiang military oil and arrows greeted the regent’s carriage, almost destroying the carriage.

At that time, if the regent was in the carriage, there would be no way out.

“The royal clansmen united with the vassal kings to cause chaos, not only to kill this king, but also to kill the Dazhou emperor. This king has received news that after the Dazhou emperor captured Xiping, he has already captured Jiujiang, and Dazhou has already Send troops to the border of Yan Kingdom…” Xiao Rongyan sat on the regent throne under the emperor’s head, turned his thumb and said in a heavy voice, “Perhaps, while we are talking at this moment, Da Zhou’s army has already entered the Yan territory!”

The courtiers recalled that the previous battle report in Xiping said that the regent had captured the family of King Xiping, and also killed the two sons of King Xiping and his concubine, thus saving the Emperor Dazhou. The ministers wanted to ask… but they dared not ask. It is possible that Da Zhou may have already begun to discuss the attack on Yan State.

“Now that the epidemic in the country of Yan has not subsided, and the war has started again, this is my fault!” Murong Li came in from the back of the main hall, carrying the hem of his clothes and walking towards the jade platform, “Back then, when the country of Yan had no choice but to send envoys I went to Da Zhou to seek peace, and decided on a strategy to gamble the country. This time, it was our Yan Kingdom royal clan and the vassal king who were in trouble, trying to control me inside, and quietly ambush outside… I almost killed the emperor of Da Zhou! I was in the wrong… Because the emperor can’t restrain the royal family and the vassal kings, it’s the fault… as the emperor, he didn’t discover the hidden dangers of the Yan Kingdom early.”

“Your Majesty…” The courtiers of the Yan Kingdom heard what their emperor said, and hurriedly said, “If it were not for His Majesty’s proposal to gamble the country, the Yan Kingdom would not have been able to last long, how could this be His Majesty’s fault!”

“Yes, Your Majesty! Although Your Majesty is young, he has already shown his majesty and mind.

The ministers knelt on the ground and pleaded guilty.

Murong Li glanced at his ninth uncle, and seemed to have made up his mind. He clenched his fists, and the taste of blood filled his clenched mouth before he whispered, “Now is not the time to discuss crimes, once a war begins, those who suffer will suffer. It is the common people, and the sacrifices are the soldiers! Therefore… I decided to send envoys to seek the emperor of Da Zhou for peace, and to cede the land and ask for peace! If… Da Zhou is unwilling, then the State of Yan will take a step back and pay tribute to Da Zhou, Servant.”

“Your Majesty! Your Majesty can’t be!”

“Pay tribute, be a vassal… We have become a vassal state just like that of the Dongyi Kingdom!”

Ignoring the cry of the officials, Murong Li spoke again: “I…will make an edict on myself, and ask God to forgive me, so that the epidemic will be eliminated as soon as possible, so that the people will no longer suffer from the epidemic.”

Murong Li knows that he may not be a qualified emperor, but he is trying to be a good emperor, an emperor who can make the people suffer less.

The previous mistakes have been made, and Murong Li can’t be decadent because of this. Since he is the emperor of the Yan Kingdom, he has to take responsibility and cannot rely on Jiu Shu for everything.

Xiao Rongyan came back in a hurry, and he hadn’t discussed the matter with Murong Li, but he didn’t expect that Murong Li had already made a decision.

Originally, Xiao Rongyan wanted to persuade Murong Li to surrender.

After the vassal kings ambush Bai Qingyan, Xiao Rongyan had realized that the vassal kings of the Yan Kingdom were a problem for the Yan Kingdom, and the creeping grass was difficult to get rid of. Murong Li pushed down the throne.

Such a state of Yan, even if the state of Yan was lucky enough to win the game, the state of Yan really managed to dominate the world without cutting down the vassal… The hidden danger of the vassal king will only be greater.

Xiao Rongyan had to admire Bai Qingyan’s foresight, and solved the problem of the vassal king at the beginning of the establishment of the Great Zhou Dynasty.

Xiao Rongyan raised his eyes to look at his nephew, and from his expression, he knew that Murong Li had doubts about his own abilities, and he was full of confidence and high fighting spirit when he asked Murong Li if he dared to become the Emperor of Yan. .

But Murong Li has done a good job, and the country of Yan itself has many problems of one kind or another.

If the State of Yan was facing the former Jin State, not the current Da Zhou, Xiao Rongyan would dare to say…they will definitely be the Yan State who will rule the world in the end!

However, the opponent is Da Zhou.

Da Zhou has Bai Qingyan’s long-term vision, and the emperor who can unite Da Zhou’s heart and make Da Zhou work together. They are like this in the state of Yan… If there are not so many hidden dangers, the court can be united again, and maybe they can compete with Da Zhou. .

Unfortunately, the royal clan of the Yan Kingdom and the vassal kings all have their own thoughts, and all they have in their arms are their own interests.

The defeat of the State of Yan was not unforeseeable.

Xiao Rongyan felt that at Murong Li’s age, he was able to undertake his own mission, and he chose to surrender to Da Zhou for the sake of the lives of the people and soldiers. He was already very brave and responsible.

“All the ministers, get up!” Murong Li said slowly, “Da Zhou may invade Yanjing at any time. It is not too late. We need to draft the national letter immediately and send envoys to meet the Emperor Da Zhou, Ninth Uncle…”

Murong Li looked at Xiao Rongyan: “This time, I won’t work the ninth uncle to meet the emperor of Da Zhou, so that no one will make a fuss about this and throw dirty water on the ninth uncle, according to the ninth uncle… who to send? The best way to go?”

“The minister of the Honglu Temple can go! The Minister of the Household has been in touch with the officials of Dazhou, so let the Minister of the Household also go there in person…” Xiao Rongyan looked at the Minister of the Household.

The Minister of the Household has dealt with those officials in Dazhou. Knowing that Dazhou is full of talents, Liu Rushi will not talk about it, and that Lu Fenglang is not easy to deal with!

Especially that Fan Yugan, who is full of rogue faces, but also makes people lose their temper. Anyway, he has dealt with these people, so it is good to be mentally prepared. My colleagues let Zhou Ren be pitted.

The Minister of the Household took a step forward and kowtowed solemnly: “Please rest assured, Your Majesty, Prince Regent, Wei Chen…will not disgrace our mission!”
