Chapter 585 Minions
Wang Xuance was still a young man in the sixth year of Zhenguan. He always had some minor problems unique to young people, such as arrogance, impulse, and impatient... But equally, because of this, he was more "energetic", dared to think, dare to do, and was surprisingly bold.
It is not easy to subvert a country. Even if it is a small street stall, if someone wants to take it for themselves, the stall owner will probably try his best, let alone a country.
So if Ju Wentai caught Wang Xuance's handle, with the old man's urinary personality, it is probably not impossible to kill him directly. But there are not so many "if, if" in the world, and regret medicine is just a legend after all, otherwise there would be no such thing as "it's hard to buy money but know it before you know it."
There are many things that seem to be coincidental, but in fact it is inevitable. Lao Juyu's personality determines that he is destined not to be truly supported by his subordinates. Under the strong pressure from the outside world, his subordinates chose to betray, and his son also chose to betray.
As long as you take the first step, it will be difficult to stop again. Ma Wanjie can't stop, and Ju Zhisheng can't stop either.
After Wang Xuance left, Comrade Xiao Ju couldn't help but jump up immediately. Regardless of whether Lao Ju could hear his words, he immediately said to Ma Wanjie: "Prime Minister, what should I do? The Tang Dynasty actually... wants to start a surgery with Yutian. If I really follow Wang Xuance's method to say, then there will be no place for us to stay in the Western Regions in the future!"
"Your Highness, it's better to have surgery on Yutian than to have surgery on me, Gaochang." Ma Wanjie sighed with a sigh, and if he had a deep meaning, he sat down in the position where Old Ju often sat in the past: "Your Highness, there is an old saying in the Central Plains: I'd rather be a peaceful dog than a person in troubled times."
Ju Zhisheng was stunned for a moment, unable to understand the meaning of the "old saying", but then he realized that he was sitting in the old man's position now, and he couldn't help but feel aroused in his heart, forgetting all the questions he just wanted to ask.
"Your Highness, think about it from another perspective. Perhaps it is not necessarily a bad thing for us to surrender to the Tang Dynasty. We can become the most powerful country in the Western Regions with the support of the Tang Dynasty. At that time, it will not be how other countries view us, but how we view them, whether they are allowed to continue to survive in the Western Regions, and you will become the greatest king who ruled the entire Western Regions!"
"The greatest king of the Western Regions!" Ju Zhisheng's eyes were a little confused, he stroked the armrest of the seat in a daze, and after a while he said to himself: "Is this possible? This is the greatest dream of ancestors of all generations. Will it be realized in my hands?"
"Yes, as long as the Tang Dynasty supports us, it will definitely be realized! King!" Ma Wanjie replied with great affirmation with his body bowed, and at the same time, he changed his name to Comrade Xiaoju without realizing it.
King, this title sounds so nice.
Ju Zhisheng took a deep breath, suppressed his excitement, turned his head to look at Ma Wanjie and said in a deep voice: "That's it! I'll let someone inform you immediately. The third party meeting will be held in the palace tomorrow morning."
Ma Wanjie secretly glanced at Xiao Ju who was in excitement, suppressed his sneer in his heart, and replied respectfully: "Yes, Master! I will do it now."
As for Lao Ju lying on the bed... who still has the heart to care about him now!
The night passed quickly, and in a blink of an eye, it was already the next afternoon. The envoys from various countries gathered together again, but the slight difference in the past was that the person on the throne turned into a young and somewhat overly young man - Ju Zhisheng.
"Prime Minister Gaochang, what does this mean?" Before Ju Zhisheng, who was on the throne, had already pointed at Comrade Xiao Ju on the throne and made a questioning voice, without any respect in his words.
"This is my Prince of Gaochang, His Highness Ju Zhisheng, and His Highness has taken over as the Lord of Gaochang under the witness of the envoy of the Tang Dynasty last night. What? What do you think of the envoy of the Khotan?" Ma Wanjie stood up and asked coldly between the envoy of the Khotan and Ju Zhisheng.
"Substitute the position of Lord Gaochang? Humph, since that's the case, why don't we know?" The envoy of Khotan turned around and pointed in the palace, and then continued, "And how could he, a baby who was still stinky, take charge of such a big event as a league?"
"Rareless! What is your identity? When will I need to notify you when will the replacement of my country's king of Gaochang be made?" Ma Wanjie took a step forward and asked in a deep voice.
"It is not necessary to know, but I suspect that there is a problem with the handover you said, so I want to meet the old king and listen to what the old king said!" The envoy of Khotan smiled coldly, and seemed to have not heard of Ma Wanjie's question.
"The king of the country is sick and will not see any guests." Ma Wanjie glanced at Wang Xuance, who was only under the throne with a look of help, and said with a stern finger.
Their alternation this time was not so glorious, and the time was a bit hasty, and they completely completed the handover that had originally taken several months overnight. If there was no trick in it, I wouldn't believe it.
But there is nothing I can do about this. Ju Wentai has only been hanging in one breath. He saw that he was not alive and could not delay for so many months.
The matter of the alliance is imminent. If you do not want to give up the position of hosting the alliance, you can only immediately select a king to replace Ju Wentai. Otherwise, whether the country will be in turmoil or not, just losing the position of hosting the alliance will make Gaochang lose the value of being used.
"Just, the king is healthy, how could he get terminally ill overnight? What shameful secrets are there..."
"Enough! The handover of the Lord Gaochang was my own meeting. The envoy of Khotan, do you have any doubts about the envoy?" Wang Xuance slapped the table and interrupted the envoy of Khotan's next speech.
The reason why Wang Xuance spoke now is because he wanted to give Ju Zhisheng and Ma Wanjie a warning to see if they could withstand the oppression of the countries if they left the support of the Tang Dynasty.
But equally, Wang Xuance cannot really be forced into a dead end. Qualified agents like Gaochang are not so easy to find. To achieve this, things can only be completed in the last step and the first stage of the layout. If Gaochang collapses, the work in the first half of the year will be in vain, which is not in line with the current interests.
"I, I..." The envoy of Khotan hesitated for a moment, and finally bowed rationally to apologize: "Dear Tang envoys, foreign ministers dare not! Since there are envoys who have witnessed it, there is naturally no problem."
Chapter completed!
