Chapter 2617 wearing small shoes
Luo Fengtang shook his head and said with a stern face: "First of all, I am a soldier, and it is my duty to protect my family and my country."
"Secondly, military orders are like mountains, and the emperor's orders are difficult to do!"
There is one last point, that is, these Daliao troops who invaded Da Qi were all under Tuoba Yu.
It was also Tuoba Yucai who gave instructions to invade Daqi.
And Tuoba Yu was the prince who used a trick to kidnap the young emperor and usurp the throne when his mother came south to Changping Village to reunite with her son.
In recent years, my mother, the former eldest princess of Daliao and the assistant to the young emperor, has been living a low-key life in Changping Village.
Although in front of him, my mother behaved very calmly and calmly, and seemed to enjoy the family happiness and the joy of teasing her grandchildren.
However, Luo Fengtang knew that her mother's suffering and unwillingness could only be buried deep in her heart.
For both public and private reasons, even if the emperor doesn't appoint him for this expedition, he will definitely go out on the expedition!
"Qing'er will understand me!" Luo Fengtang looked at Mu Zichuan and said in a deep voice again as his thoughts came back.
The voice was extremely determined, without any hesitation.
This made Mu Zichuan stunned for a moment, thinking that the two people's trust in each other had actually reached such an extent?
It is really valuable!
"Let's go, it's time to go to the morning." Luo Fengtang raised his hand and patted Mu Zichuan's shoulder, and walked towards the front door.
Mu Zichuan responded and followed up.
"By the way, Brother Fengtang, when I came here earlier, I saw you chatting with Mr. Zuo. What, did you know each other before?" Mu Zichuan asked again.
"Master Zuo? I don't know you." Luo Fengtang shook his head.
"He took the initiative to talk to me. He knew me from what he said, but I didn't know him. When I asked him for his name, he kept it secret and I didn't bother to ask again!" he continued.
Muzichuan's steps suddenly stopped.
"Brother Fengtang, there is something I want to remind you. Maybe I am worrying too much, but I still want you to know." Mu Zichuan said.
Luo Fengtang also stopped and looked sideways at Mu Zichuan: "I am all ears."
Mu Zichuan said: "The former Master Zuo is the newly appointed Minister of War."
"Oh?" Luo Fengtang raised his eyebrows.
Since you are your superior and subordinate, why didn't you reveal your identity before?
Mu Zichuan continued: "You have been training soldiers in an isolated place in Xishan almost this year. You don't know the variables in the court outside."
"This Lord Zuo is a cousin to the former Minister of the Ministry of War, the one who arrested you and took you to the White Tiger Hall of the Ministry of War."
Luo Fengtang suddenly realized.
"Above the court, does he still want to openly wear small shoes for me?" he said.
Mu Zichuan said: "This person is very cunning, and he finally pleases the emperor. His compatriot sister entered the palace at the beginning of the year. At the end of the year, she was pregnant with Liujia. After the year, she will have a child for the royal family. Now she is in the limelight."
"So, when you get to the Jinluan Palace, Brother Fengtang, you should try your best to be careful and avoid Master Zuo's ways."
Luo Fengtang frowned, a trace of disgust flashed in his eyes. What he hated most was these intrigues and intrigues.
But he still smiled gratefully at Mu Zichuan and said, "Don't worry, I'm not afraid of slanted shadows."
Mu Zichuan also nodded, "That's good. If he takes the opportunity to make things difficult for you later, I will also act according to the opportunity to help you."
Luo Fengtang smiled again, raised his hand and patted Mu Zichuan on the shoulder: "Let's go, it's almost time."
The two walked side by side, walking along a long marble-paved avenue, and then stepped on the high steps made of white jade in front, going straight up...
In the court hall, civil servants and military generals gathered here, but the atmosphere was extremely tense.
Because there was another urgent report from the north. King Ling led his army southward and would reach Yanmen Pass in three days.
Yanmen Pass is the northern gate of Daqi. Since ancient times, it has been a battleground for military strategists.
Once Yanmen Pass is lost, the capital of Da Qi, the capital, will be in danger.
Therefore, Emperor Qi was sitting on the dragon throne, looking melancholy and looking bad.
After the eunuch general finished reporting his feelings, Emperor Qi flicked his sleeves and said,
"The war in the north is at the root of the war, which is endangering our country and the country. Please express your opinions," he said.
However, there was silence in the court hall. Everyone stood with their heads bowed and their hands folded in front of them, standing respectfully.
Look at your nose with your eyes, and look at your heart with your nose. The large court hall is so quiet that you can almost hear the sound of an embroidery needle falling to the ground.
Emperor Qi waited for a moment, but before he could make any sound, his eyes swept in front of him and saw that no one was coming out of the queue. Long Yan suddenly became unhappy.
"During the last peace talks, you all spoke eloquently and analyzed and speculated on Daliao in a hundred ways, but you just didn't guarantee it."
"Why are you so confused today when we really broke up with each other and when it's time to pick up the sword?"
"That's right, I long for peace in the world and don't like killing,"
"But when the country has reached such a moment, the Buddha must also take up the sword!"
"Now, I need to hear your voices, who speaks first?"
Emperor Qi's majestic gaze swept across the people below, and everyone lowered their heads, fearing to meet Emperor Qi's gaze.
Emperor Qi was so angry that he almost rolled his eyes, so he raised his finger and pointed at one of the ministers: "Master Wang, if I remember correctly, you were the most eloquent person in the court when we talked about Daliao's harassment of our Qi territory a few times ago.
.”
"Then what's your idea this time? You might as well tell me!" Qi Huang said.
This old guy named Wang actually planned to declare a challenge last time, but was persuaded to do so by this old guy.
The old guy also gathered a group of people to advise him, and the general idea was that if you can, don't fight, if you can, condemn, and if you can negotiate, don't use swords and sticks.
"Your Majesty, Da Liao has gone too far to bully others and has gone too far. Naturally, I want to teach them a lesson so that they will know that the majesty of our country, Da Qi, and your majesty cannot be violated." Mr. Wang said solemnly.
"It's just that His Highness, God of War, King Yun, is currently in the south, busy attacking the Black Lotus Sect and the Southern Barbarians."
"If His Royal Highness King Yun is transferred to the north, then our southern gate of Daqi will be in danger."
"But the soldiers are far away in the south, and the distant water cannot save the nearby fire. By the time the soldiers arrive, more than a month has passed. Not to mention the delay in fighting, the south is also dangerous..."
"Your Majesty, please think again. If this is not possible, we can show more sincerity..." Lord Wang said.
"What does more sincerity mean?" Qi Huang asked in a deep voice, with suppressed anger already welling up in his eyes.
"Is it to cede land as compensation and give up the city?" he asked.
Mr. Wang said: "Not necessarily. It would also be a good choice to let the princess go and get married..."
"presumptuous!"
Emperor Qi slapped the table in front of him, which was decorated with dragons and phoenixes, and he was furious.
"After retreating again and again, how can we, the Great Qi Kingdom, endure this great humiliation?"
"Come here, remove Wang Busheng from the position of Minister of History. This person is suspected of collaborating with the enemy and betraying the country. He will be detained and temporarily handed over to the custody of the clan government for further interrogation later!"
"Your Majesty, I have been wronged!"
