Chapter 389 Fight? Or not?
Fei smiled, but said nothing, just looked at Shao Shuhuan, and Shao Shuhuan said, "Young Master Ting!"
Shao Ting was about to speak, but Shao Shuhuan smiled and said, "I won't have anything to do. I took the initiative to meet Your Majesty!"
Shao Ting sighed and understood in his heart that if Mizhou is controlled by Nan Xia, even if he doesn't want to go out, staying will be useless. Moreover, if he is a scholar, if he really has something to do, he can only be slaughtered. What else can he do?
"Since that's the case, I will leave!" Shao Ting said, bowing to Shao Shuhuan, turning around and retreating, but the word "子" was particularly chewed.
Mo Wu and Long Guanwei also retreated together. Shao Shuhuan then smiled and said, "Your Majesty, please sit down!" As he said that, he poured a cup of tea from the table and held it to him with both hands.
Murphy took the tea, put it casually on the table, and asked, "Why is Shuhuan making an appointment with me?"
"I just want to know what Your Majesty is going to do?" Shao Shuhuan asked.
"Me?" Murphy smiled, "It would be great if he could kill Ji Yu, but I don't have that big ambition."
Shao Shuhuan sighed, leaned on the chair weakly, and after a long time, he asked, "How can you get Your Majesty to retreat?"
"Shuhuan!" Murphy stood up, walked back and forth in the room for two steps, then shook his head and said, "I think you might have made something wrong. It's not that I don't want to withdraw my troops, but that Shao She wants to force me to death."
"I can negotiate with Hongtong Money House!" Shao Shuhuan said with a wry smile.
"I want to exempt everyone from the land. Withdraw from the South Xia Kingdom!" Murphy whispered. "Can Shuhuan make the decision?"
When Shao Shuhuan heard this, he couldn't help but clench his fists. After a long time, he said, "Shuhuan can't make the decision. But I can lobby my father and ask him to return the things originally belonged to Your Majesty to Your Majesty."
"No—" Murphy shook his head. "In addition to asking Shao Shedi people to retreat from the Nanxia Kingdom, I also want one person!"
"Me?" Shao Shuhuan smiled bitterly.
Murphy stared at him for a moment and then said, "If you want to speak, there is no room for negotiation for this matter. Ji Yu has to fight. I want it to be Dugu Shiqing!"
"Rich? Beauty?" Shao Shuhuan suddenly wanted to laugh out loud. So that's it, so that's it...
Murphy actually likes Dugu Shiqing. No wonder when he saw Xiaoya, he felt that Xiaoya looked like Dugu Qing. It turned out... he couldn't help but think that when Shao Shuhuan remembered that when he watched "The Two Prouds" in his previous life, he couldn't get it, so it was good to have a substitute. He actually found a girl with a similar appearance as his daughter?
"I want all the beauty in the country!" Murphy snorted, "I want Dugu Shiqing. As long as she is willing to go with me, the rest will be easy to discuss."
"If Dugu Shiqing follows His Majesty, from now on, the Xuanji Cave will be unified, and it will be no problem whether there is a Linglong Blood Cauldron. In the future, His Majesty will inevitably lead his troops north to seize the great Zhou dynasty." Shao Shuhuan suddenly discovered that he was afraid that the deal between him and Murphy might not be able to continue.
It would be fine if anything else, but Dugu Shiqing - that's Shao She's woman, and no man is willing to give up his woman to others.
"Shuhuan is really powerless to do what His Majesty asks, but I can still make the decision on Hongtong Money House." Shao Shuhuan said, taking out a jade pendant from his sleeve and handing it over, "With this, Your Majesty can withdraw silver from Hongtong Money House at any time."
As he said that, Shao Shuhuan put the jade pendant on the table and pushed it in front of Murphy.
Murphy took the jade pendant, put it in his hand and rubbed it for a moment, and whispered: "The master's belonging..." After a while, he put down the jade pendant and sent it to Shao Shuhuan, sighing, "You should know that this jade pendant is just a token. Except for you, it will be useless to hold anyone."
"What is that damn Linglong Blood Cauldron?" Shao Shuhuan could no longer help but ask, why was he trapped in such a quagmire?
Murphy pointed to the chair opposite him and signaled him to sit down and talk. After a while, he sighed: "I don't know how to say this. Perhaps, the so-called Linglong Blood Cauldron is a cover... a lie passed down by Yin Mo back then.
But because of this guise, Northern Zhou and Qiannan Yin have not known how long they have been earning for this, but they are still making money now. It has to be said that Yin Mo is not an emperor's material, but a master of conspiracy. Hongtong Money House has been passed down for so many generations, and each generation of big shopkeepers is a family system, and they only recognize the blood cauldron but not the people..."
Shao Shuhuan shook his head. He had not had much contact with Hongtong Money House. At most, he was curious and went to Hongtong Money House to withdraw some silver. When he showed the jade pendant, the other party didn't even ask questions. The silver was so refreshing that he was very happy.
"Shuhuan, I'll ask you a question, and answer me honestly!" Murphy said suddenly seriously.
"Hmm?" Shao Shuhuan asked curiously, "May I ask?"
"Your Prince Ji Wei of Northern Zhou is the child of excuse?" Murphy asked.
Shao Shuhuan's fingers were gathered on his long sleeves and couldn't help but tremble gently.
How did he know about such a secret question?
"Shuhuan, you have known for a long time that the prince is a child from the land of freedom?" Murphy asked again.
Shao Shuhuan smiled bitterly and said, "Why is Your Majesty suddenly interested in the private affairs of the royal family of the Great Zhou Kingdom?"
"You actually hide something like this from me?" Murphy said angrily.
"Your Majesty, this is a private matter of the royal family of the Great Zhou Kingdom!" Shao Shuhuan was also very angry. Damn, letting hundreds of thousands of troops do nothing, why did he care about such a mess?
"Private affairs?" Murphy snorted angrily, "Since it is a private matter of the royal family of the Great Zhou Kingdom, Shuhuan, when you asked me to do something for you, why didn't you say that this is a private matter of the Great Zhou Kingdom?"
Shao Shuhuan took a deep breath. When it came to this, he did owe the God of War Murphy a favor. Otherwise, the prince would have Shao She's support, and it would be not easy to get him to step down like this.
"Shuhuan, what do you think I am? I have hundreds of thousands of troops in Northern Zhou Dynasty. You asked me to withdraw my troops with one word, and you asked me to come over to see you with one word. You really think that you are the Linglong Blood Cauldron, and we all have to listen to you? Since you and I cooperate, you can at least show some sincerity. You don't even say such an important question?" Murphy said angrily.
Shao Shuhuan asked with a sarcastic smile: "If Your Majesty had known it a long time ago, what if?"
"If I had known that the prince was Shao She's son, I would not let you leave my Daxia Kingdom at all. I just had to send a message to Prince An, and the Northern Zhou Dynasty would have been in chaos!" Murphy snorted.
Shao Shuhuan smiled sarcastically. Sure enough, the mentality of the superiors is all crazy...
"Now the Great Zhou Kingdom is still in chaos, Your Majesty has achieved its goal!" Shao Shuhuan smiled bitterly, "Shuhuan is begging Your Majesty to withdraw his troops, not to summon Your Majesty. Therefore, if Your Majesty is angry, he should also ask Shao Sheren to send him, not me!"
"Shuhuan, it's easy for me to withdraw my troops!" Murphy took a breath and calmed his anger.
"I have no right to agree to your two conditions!" Shao Shuhuan smiled bitterly. He could not agree to everyone who wanted Shao She to retreat from Nanxia or Dugu Shiqing.
From the standpoint of the Great Zhou Kingdom, the nails buried in the Southern Xia Kingdom must not be allowed to retreat. How could Dugu Shiqing, a woman who is so arbitrary and remote and strange, be willing to make sacrifices for the overall situation and the people?
"No!" Murphy snorted, "Shuhuan and I will be able to leave!"
Shao Shuhuan didn't say anything. Murphy wanted to take him to the Southern Xia Kingdom. What he knew was that those who got the exquisite blood tripod would win the world...
Although it is just a rumor, the rumors are terrifying these days!
"Shuhuan, do you know or not? It's not the question of whether I am willing to withdraw my troops or not, but whether Shao She and His Majesty the Emperor of the Northern Zhou Kingdom are willing to let me go." Murphy sighed, "Do you know what Shao She has done over the years?"
"I know!" Shao Shuhuan smiled bitterly, "He told me that he controls the economic lifeline of your country."
"Yes!" Murphy nodded, "He relied on the power of the Dugu clan and took advantage of the chaos to control the economy of the Daxia Kingdom. This money - a penny to kill the heroes. If it were before, I could command the army to rob and seize it, but Shuhuan, now you tell me, where did I go to rob? Should I rob my own people? The Daxia Kingdom has been through wars for a long time and the people are already suffering enough. Do I still have to increase the taxes of the people?"
"I know that this war was initiated by Shao She." Shao Shuhuan smiled, but there was an indescribable bitterness.
"Yes, because of the Prince of Zhou, he can't vent his anger to you or Ji Yu. I'm really easy to talk to me?" Murphy sneered, "Stop the battle! Since I am known as the God of War, then let's finish the battle. Winner, this beauty in the country is mine!"
"What if I lose?" Shao Shuhuan asked back.
"If you lose, you lose!" Murphy sneered, "If you lose, you will be just a life!"
"What did Your Majesty leave the army and come to Mizhou for doing?" Shao Shuhuan shook his head. His Majesty, the king of a country and the god of war, would even be insincere.
"If there is a better way, I don't want to fight!" Murphy snorted, "War - all people die! Whether it is the enemy or the great soldiers of our Nanxia Kingdom..."
Shao Shuhuan nodded. At this point, Murphy was reasonable and war! Everyone died...
When prosperity comes, the people suffer! When death comes, the people suffer!
And the battle, no matter the outcome, it will save thousands of bones from being broken...
"Shuhuan, you should understand that I don't want to force you, do you follow me, or continue to fight this battle?" Murphy said, "I don't have much time..."
"Your Majesty, you know the answer!" Shao Shuhuan sighed. He could not go with Murphy, otherwise he would not be able to explain to Emperor Zhou. Moreover, even if he was willing to go to Nanxia with Murphy, Emperor Zhou would never stop such a messy war... (To be continued,)
