Pirates' Ice Dragon General

The carriage stopped behind the palace gate. Bai Ning stepped out of the carriage and looked at the guards on both sides and the small yellow gate rushing in and out. w

The snow was falling in the sky, and the bleak scene in the palace made him feel a little hesitant. Once upon a time when he was here, the atmosphere here should not be like this. The surrounding imperial guards and palace guards all knew who was coming and did not dare to stop him.

This morning's morning session has long passed, and the emperor will not be waiting for him in Chui Gong Hall.

Turning around a corridor, I found the direction of the imperial study room with ease. Before I could get close, the door over there opened and a figure came out. He stepped back respectfully and saw Bai Ning.

The other party bowed: "Your Majesty, Qin Hui, has met the Chief Manager."

Qin hinoki

Bai Ning stopped and looked down at the man who bowed and straightened up. In his subconscious mind, he still had some fluctuations in these historical celebrities. Of course, it was only a short fluctuation. At the moment, Qin Hui was just a young man who had just received some appreciation. An official is far inferior to the status of that person in another time and space.

"The officials summoned you...what did they say?" Bai Ning clasped his hands. For such a person, he didn't need to be conceited and asked directly.

Opposite me, Qin Hui was also a little surprised. He obviously didn't expect the other party to ask such a straightforward question. After all, a thin layer of cold sweat broke out on his forehead. He whispered: "Huizhi is lucky enough to be recruited by the official today." Asking the right questions in the palace is the blessing of the association..."

"Nonsense, let's get to the point."

"It's...about the Jurchens. Your Majesty asked your officials how the Wu Dynasty would deal with it if the Jurchens went south. He replied that your Majesty would discuss it more with the officials, strengthen the defense in the north, and place the Jin Dynasty's envoys outside the city. .....”

At this time, a Xiao Huangmen came over and whispered a few words in Bai Ning's ear. Bai Ning waved his hand to let him go down, turned sideways to Qin Hui, stared at him with cold eyes, and said: "You are missing one... cede Yanshan Yi Bei, you must have said this in the imperial study before. pb"

Qin Hui broke into a cold sweat, and it was not enough for him to kneel on the ground, but there was still a tremor in his words, "Yes...it was said by the lower official. The one who always advocated tit-for-tat with the Jurchens, this last one, is Qin Hui If you think there is no way to retreat, you can agree to the bottom line of the opponent's conditions. And north of Yanshan, it is actually quite difficult for the Wu Dynasty to control it, so it is better to strengthen the defense of nearby places."

"Well... you go down." Bai Ning waved to him, "Since the officials are interested in you, it means they are optimistic about you and do your job well. As for the Jurchen incident, what you said makes some sense."

Qin Hui was born as a scholar, and he actually looked down upon eunuchs at all. Even knowing that eunuchs had such rights, he originally had a displeased attitude, but when he really had to face the great eunuch in front of him, he felt a deep pain in his heart for no reason. The chill is like the creepy feeling of having a poisonous snake right in front of you but not knowing when it will bite you.

After the other party left, Bai Ning asked Xiao Huangmen to go into the royal study to report, and then came out to let Bai Ning in. A charcoal stove was lit in the study, which was very warm. A maid came over and took off Bai Ning's cloak and moved a chair. To the side of the desk.

Zhao Ji was not dealing with the memorial, but seemed to be reading some related books on battlefield warfare. After seeing Bai Ning sit down, he put down the book in his hand and read over.

"... Regarding Yan Yun's matter, some senior officials in the court have quite criticized Xiao Ningzi's actions."

"Weichen knows, probably because he has a bad opinion about Weichen committing suicide without authorization." Bai Ning looked at the other party, with a look of sincerity and fear on his face, "...but the battle ahead is fleeting. If you are not careful, you may lose everything. The surrender of the Liao Dynasty will certainly greatly enhance the reputation of the Wu Dynasty, but have you ever thought about whether he can miss the Wu Dynasty today and whether he will rebel again tomorrow when the Wu Dynasty is weak? Your Majesty has not seen such people elsewhere, but the ministers have seen them. These people do not have much sense of the Wu Dynasty sincerely. Instead, they do things with a mentality of being a rare commodity. Such people only keep More complicated incidents will arise. So...Wei Chen lets them die on the battlefield, and the soldiers and horses in their hands belong to the Wu Dynasty."

"I know...I understand." Zhao Ji knocked on the table twice and spoke faster. Even though he has gotten older and became a father, he is much calmer, but he is still young and energetic.

"I know that they are surrendered generals... and they may betray the Wu Dynasty at any time, but I want to make a fuss about them for the world to see, and for those literati below who keep shouting in my ears. , originally everything was half done, but when I received the news that those generals were dead, you made my plan fail and embarrassed me."

He took a deep breath and controlled his emotions, "...Forget it once it's done. Everyone is dead. There's no point in pursuing this matter. On the way back from Xiao Ningzi, some more information came. Now it's winter. When the time came, the Jurchens also lay low. They completed the war against the Liao Kingdom, but Yanyun of the Wu Dynasty only took back Zhuozhou, Mozhou, Yingzhou, and Weizhou. The rest were all in the hands of the Jurchens. The next step is to negotiate... I don’t want to use weapons anymore.”

"Then how does Your Majesty think of talking to the Jurchens who are like wolves and tigers?" Bai Ning had a bad feeling in his heart.

Zhao Ji shook his head and waved his hands and said: "We are just discussing for the time being. While the Jurchens have no intention of going south, I and the courtiers should make up their minds..."

The trajectories of history are so similar. Even if Bai Ning wants to change something, he has done a lot of useless things. He also knows in his heart that Zhao Ji is not fighting at this moment. If there is fear of the Jurchens, another reason may be the appearance of the Jurchens. In the case of Bai Ning and Tong Guan, the so-called negotiations have probably already figured out the charter. If I don't say it at this time, it is probably because the emperor doesn't want to tell him about it. The meaning is already obvious.

"Since His Majesty wants to make peace with the Kingdom of Jin, it is inconvenient for me to say anything more."

Bai Ning cupped his hands and said, "I'll take my leave."

Zhao Ji waved his hand and watched him exit.

After leaving the palace gate, there was still heavy snow falling outside, and a cloud of mist came out of his mouth.

"The civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty...a bunch of treacherous ministers...the Jurchens have been fighting for so many years. Even if they can defeat the Liao Kingdom, they are already weak. There are so many Liao Kingdoms. They need money to recuperate and recuperate. You go talk... go spend money to buy them. For the Jin Kingdom, the twelve states can be taken back at any time. Tens of millions of dollars are equivalent to giving to others to help others raise people and soldiers. This is to benefit the enemy. ah"

"A bunch of idiots... Since you want to do it on your own... I won't accompany you."

As the sun sets in the west, the huge Bianliang City blooms with flowers. Bustling crowds carry snowflakes and buy new year's goods on the street. The lights come on as the night falls. At the moment when the skylight disappears, only a few people or maybe only one person... Only then did he see a steel knife hanging above everyone in the city, and even the entire city, that could fall at any time. See more Weixin official account: hhxs665
