Chapter 629: Thistle City

Thistle.

Although the Yan State official wanted to deliberately conceal it, the news of the defeat spread throughout the palace quietly.

The entire Yan State Palace City was silent. Even when the palace people walked, they were cautious like cats, and when they spoke, they were even more quiet, for fear that they would be heard by a bad nobleman who was passing by and then beaten to death.

After all, this kind of thing is not without precedent. Since the beginning of the past few days, there have been eight palace servants and temple servants who have been beaten to death by the Queen Mother.

A sudden sound of horse hooves suddenly sounded, and it was very harsh in the quiet palace.

Several palace people who happened to pass by widened their eyes, trying to see who was so bold that they dared to run wildly in the palace city.

After seeing the person clearly, the anger on their faces immediately turned into panic.

The person who came was not someone else, but the most powerful figure in Yan State today. He had already served as the prime minister at a young age.

At this moment, Le Jian was still wearing a pair of general's armor, and he looked dusty and even looked a little embarrassed.

Lejian galloped all the way to the steps of the hall before turning over and dismounting.

"Jun Chang!"

"I've met Chang Guojun!"

The palace people and soldiers guarding in front of the hall bowed to the music scene.

Lejian nodded, responded with a nod, and then stepped up the steps and walked towards the hall above.

There is no need to pass the news when entering the hall. Looking at the entire Yan State, only the Yuejian can have such privileges.

As soon as I walked into the hall, a very sharp word came into Yuejian's ears.

"Empress Dowager, Chang Guojun lost consecutive battles. It is no longer time to continue to support Chang Guojun's willful actions. If this continues, Yan may have destroyed the country!"

"The Empress Dowager, the old minister begs the Empress Dowager to consider the State of Yan, immediately remove the military power of Changguojun and send envoys to Handan to negotiate with Zhao!"

Lejian stood at the door and looked away, and found that several old ministers of the Yan State were desperately advising him. Empress Dowager Yan, who was sitting in the head, had a pretty face full of frost. She didn't say a word, and didn't know what she was thinking.

Le Jian sneered and suddenly said, "The State of Yan cannot be destroyed!"

When Lejian opened his mouth, everyone turned their heads when they heard the sound, and then they discovered the existence of Lejian.

Several old ministers all showed shocked expressions on their faces, and their eyes looked at Lejian were quite strange. After all, it was indeed a bit ugly to be caught on the spot when they said bad things.

When Empress Dowager Yan saw the arrival of Lejian, the corners of her mouth suddenly raised slightly, and the ice on her pretty face began to show signs of melting.

The big thorn in the music scene sat down at the first position in the right head, and smiled at the old ministers of Yan State with strange expressions, "Please continue to say it, I'm listening."

Several old ministers of Yan State looked at each other, and were now persuading the Empress Dowager to remove your Lejian, but your Lejian jumped out. What else can someone say in front of you?

But no matter what, the Lejian is just a junior to these old ministers. You should know that among these old ministers, there are even ministers from the era of King Zhao of Yan, such as Hejuxin, who are the true qualifications of the three dynasties.

So just a moment later, the old minister who sat there gave people a feeling that he would die anytime and anywhere spoke tremblingly: "Jun Chang was covered in dust and dust. I guess he had just returned from the battlefield. I wonder what the situation is now?"

Lejian shook his head, and a hint of bitterness appeared on his face: "The Zhao and Qi coalition forces are strong, and our army has been defeated. At most, Jidu will be surrounded by the Zhao and Qi coalition forces within five days."

"What?" Lejian's words instantly seemed to ignite a powder barrel, exploding the atmosphere in the hall.

Several old ministers showed an angry look on their faces, and they pointed at Lejian and began to reprimand.

"Jun Chang, as the prime minister of Yan and the leading general, you must bear the greatest responsibility for this defeat!"

"Mr. Chang, if you hadn't been determined to betray the alliance between Zhao and attack Qi last year, Yan would not have ended like this now!"

"Jun Changguo, the reason why Yan Kingdom is this is entirely due to your mistakes!"

The mouths opened and closed, and countless accusations were circling around the ears of music, and saliva was about to spray on his face.

Lejian said silently, but his right hand was clenched tightly into a fist, with blue veins exposed on it.

When the old ministers saw that they were speechless when they were refuted, they became more imposing. They simply turned their heads to Empress Dowager Yan and made their own requests.

"Empress Dowager, please dismiss the position of the prime minister of the Yuejian country and choose another talented person!"

"Empress Dowager, I will discuss it!"

"I also agree!"

Empress Dowager Yan looked at these excited old ministers, then looked at the Lejian who did not say a word, sighed in her heart, and slowly asked, "Lejian, what do you have to say?"

Lejian said aloud, with a strange smile on his face, and he slowly said, "Empress Dowager, I do have something to say."

"Then let's say it."

Lejian cleared his throat and said, "I heard that there is a senior doctor who is familiar with foreign countries and secretly makes friends with Zhao people. His second son in Wuyang City has gone to the Nulu of Handan many times, and once claimed in public that he would be Zhao people but not Yan people."

"I also heard that an Aqing secretly accepted beauties and property from the King of Jizi, and therefore strongly opposed the Queen Mother's opinion of sending troops to expedition Jizi, during the court discussion."

"I also heard that a junior doctor secretly traded with the Donghu people with the convenience of guarding Yuyang City, and thus made extremely profits. Therefore, he built an extremely luxurious mansion in Wuyang City."

"I heard again..."

During the music, he kept talking one by one. Every time he said something, an old minister of Yan State present would change his face and tremble. Some people seemed to faint immediately.

After a full half day, Lejian finished everything, and then bowed to Empress Dowager Yan in front of him and said, "Return to the Empress Dowager, I'm done with my words."

There was a dead silence in the hall.

Empress Dowager Yan showed anger on her face, and she turned her eyes to the old ministers of Yan who were almost ashamed of her, and said in a deep voice: "My good friends, is the words of the King Chang true?"

Although Empress Dowager Yan is young, she already has a majestic momentum like her mother Empress Zhao Wei. After glanced at her eyes, several old ministers of Yan immediately felt strong pressure and couldn't help but kneel down and beg for mercy.

"The Empress Dowager, the old minister knows his mistake, and the old minister knows his mistake, please spare your life."

"The Empress Dowager, the old minister was also confused for a moment. Please forgive the old minister for his loyalty."

"Empress Dowager,..."

The hall was filled with mercy for a moment.

Empress Dowager Yan had a pretty face and couldn't believe that these so-called old ministers who looked so loyal to the country could do these things. They wanted to get angry, but in the end they couldn't help but sigh and said coldly: "Okay, you all go down first."

Several old ministers of Yan State no longer had the prestige they had before and left the hall in shame.

Empress Dowager Yan looked at Lejian, her eyes stopped on several small wounds on Lejian's face, and then asked in a much gentler tone than before: "I really can't win?"

Lejian lowered his head and said, "Return to the Empress Dowager, it's an incompetent minister."

Queen Mother Yan sighed faintly and said, "The old woman and King Zhao were born to the same mother, and his ambition was known. I thought he was just a man with great ambitions and talent, but I didn't expect that the State of Zhao could develop in such a state of development in his hands! So now I can only discuss peace with King Zhao?"

Lejian nodded with great difficulty and said, "Go back to the Queen Mother, cede land and seek peace should be the only way."

There was silence in the hall again.

After a long time, the voice of Queen Yan rang again.

"Since that's the case, what are you waiting for? Let's send an envoy to Handan today."
