MTL - Unparalleled Concubine-v2 Chapter 1075 Artifacts are easier

   Chapter 1075 Artifacts are easier

In the face of absolute power, the trust between people is really too weak. Not only is it weak, but it can even be said to be completely unable to withstand the test of power. Throughout the dynasties, even the blood relatives of the heavenly family, the father, son and brother draw swords against each other. There are also many people.

  Because of this, the contradiction between the two generations has been caused, which has continued to this day.

   It is also for this reason that Li Xin separated from the Ji family, and from a charcoal seller, he became the "ambitious family" in the eyes of outsiders.

   Hearing Gongyangshu's words, Li Xin slowly shook his head.

"The old man's words are wrong, I am a Jin person, but the emperor in the capital, Baiguan is also a Jin person, according to the old man's words, the old man in the capital should not want to see life being ruined, if When they open the city to surrender and let the Southwest Army enter the city, naturally there will be no military disasters, and there will be no scenes where life is ruined."

   "Since everyone is from Jin, there is no reason for me, Li Xin, to be a saint by myself. Why should the Southwest Army withdraw troops because of the idea of ​​mercy, and the court cannot surrender because of the idea of ​​mercy?"

   Ram Shu Da frowned.

"Although Li Houye is eloquent, but there are too many crooked arguments. The former emperor has already sealed the king of Shu in the southwest, and in this dynasty, the southwest will no longer even pay taxes to the court. In fact, it has become a country of its own. He has sent people to contact Hou Ye more than once. If Hou Ye withdraws his troops, the imperial court will never be stingy with a hereditary and irreplaceable Southwest King to do it for Hou Ye. Even if Hou Ye wants to open a national ancestral temple, at this time, the court will recognize Hou Ye in the southwest. The country you have established is from the beginning to the end, Li Houye, you are pressing step by step, the court has been striving to stop the army and make peace, how can it become that the court does nothing when it reaches the mouth of Li Houye?"

   General Li sneered slightly.

"In the past few years, the imperial court has assassinated me dozens of times. This is also called retreating step by step? If the Southwest Army is weak, most of the imperial imperial troops have already entered Jincheng at this time, taking the head of Li Mouxiang, and the Southwest The army fought all the way from the southwest to the lower part of the capital, relying on skill, not the alms of the imperial court."

"I know what the emperor in the capital is thinking. According to the time, the imperial court has already produced the powder of gunpowder. As long as it takes a few years, the firearms of the imperial court can gradually take shape. The humiliation suffered will make the Southwest Army pay back tenfold and a hundredfold."

   "Did I say yes or no, old gentleman?"

Gong Yangshu shook his head and smiled bitterly: "Master Li has to think so, the old man has nothing to say, it seems that the old man is indeed here in vain, today I will rest in Luzhou City for one night, and tomorrow morning, the old man will leave. Go back to the capital."

Li Xin looked calm and said lightly: "If we want to talk, it is not impossible to talk. According to my opinion, Emperor Yuan Zhao immediately issued an edict of abdication, passed the throne to the sixth prince Ji Ying, and then the emperor himself came out of the city to Luzhou. The old prime minister led someone to take the sixth prince into the capital, and at the same time, the Gyeonggi Imperial Army was transferred from the capital a hundred miles away, and our Southwest Army also withdrew from the capital, and when the dust settles in the capital, the Southwest Army can consider retreating."

   "What do you think Lao Xiangye thinks?"

Gong Yangshu lowered his head and pondered for a while, and said, "The old man said earlier that His Majesty can issue an edict of abdication, and the sixth prince can enter the capital at any time to succeed the throne, but the Gyeonggi Imperial Army cannot move, and the Southwest Army will also withdraw a hundred miles away. As for Li Hou Lord, whether you want to enter the capital to watch the ceremony, or stay outside the city to watch, the imperial court does not impose any restrictions."

Having said that, the old man stroked his gray beard and said solemnly: "But no matter what, I will never go out of the city to be a proton for your Southwest Army today, otherwise I will be the first in the more than 100 years since the founding of the Jin Dynasty. The scandal will be engraved on the history for thousands of generations in the future, and will be ridiculed by future generations!"

   General Li said dumbly: "Since the old Prime Minister insists on this, there is really no need for negotiation. The junior here has a few good words to advise the old Prime Minister."

   At this time, Gong Yangshu was still walking in front, and Li Xin was walking behind him. Hearing that, the old man stopped, looked back at Li Xin, and stopped.

   "Master Li, please speak."

  Li Xin squinted his eyes with a bit of anger in his eyes.

   "Old Xiangye thinks that the Southwest Army has a certain degree of certainty that it will be able to conquer the capital?"

   Gong Yangshu shook his head: "I don't know, but you shouldn't be too sure about coming to Lord Li Hou. Otherwise, Lord Li wouldn't take time out of his busy schedule to talk so much nonsense with the old man at this time."

   Li Xin grinned: "There are always three or four percent, right?"

Gongyang Shu Mo was speechless, and after a long silence, he slowly said: "The two Zhechong manor's forces were scattered overnight by the Li Shuo under the Hou Ye, and the strength of the Southwest Army was so strong, 30% to 40%. Surely there is a certainty.”

   "That's 30%."

   General Li had his hands behind his back, his voice a little low.

"At this time, the imperial court is all determined to abolish the emperor, welcome the sixth prince to the capital, and preserve the fighting strength of the Gyeonggi forbidden army. Then even if our southwestern army enters Beijing, the great Jin will still be the great Jin, and the Ji family will still be the Ji family, and the rules of etiquette It is still here, the Imperial Army still has fighting power, and Li will at most go to Beijing to be a powerful minister, in the future the emperor will still be surnamed Ji, and the official in the court will still be the official.”

Having said that, Li Xin squinted his eyes slightly and continued: "But if my Southwest Army seizes this 30% chance, smashes the forbidden army, and enters the capital abruptly, even if Li wants the world to continue its surname. Ji, the Southwest Army will also force him to be surnamed Li, when the artifact will change hands, and the world will change his surname, will a civil official of the Jin Dynasty like Lao Xiangye still be a civil official of the new dynasty?"

   "Lao Xiangye has survived three dynasties and has not fallen, and he is still working for the emperor in the capital. I don't need to tell Lao Xiangye the reason for this, you can naturally understand it."

Gong Yangshu's face became a little ugly, he frowned, stroked the few gray beards under his jaw, and groaned: "If what Li Houye said is true, this old man can call the shots now and put the six The prince welcomes him into the capital and forces the emperor to abdicate, but once the Southwest Army enters the capital, what will it look like in the future?

   "Lao Xiangye can only trust me."

Li Xin's face was calm, and he said, "Let me go to Beijing at this time, the whole Southwest Army will remember the merits of the court officials. Even if the artifact is easier, the civil servants will still be civil servants. The emperor can't change them, it sounds a bit ugly, but in fact It's none of your business."

   The old man flushed with anger at this sentence, gritted his teeth, and said angrily: "Do you, Li Changan, think that the people in the world are all innocent people?!"

"There are so many civil servants, and there are those who have integrity. This thing can't be eaten. If they don't want to continue to serve as officials in the court, they will give money back when the time comes. I can assure the old man that if the court opens the city and releases the Southwest Army. When I go to Beijing, I will not kill any civil servant indiscriminately."

   Lao Xiangye's face was ugly and he didn't say a word.

   When they said this, the two of them had already reached the edge of the city wall of Luzhou City. Li Xin invited Gong Yangshu to the city wall, and then the two of them looked in the direction of the capital together.

General Li pointed to the capital, looked up at the sky again, and said: "My southwestern army has arrived in the capital, and the decision to fight at this time is not in my hands, but in the hands of the imperial court, the imperial court will open the city. The door will naturally save you from a military disaster.”

   "If the imperial court does not open the city gate..."

  Li Xin squinted his eyes and pointed to the capital, his voice was not too loud or not.

   "At this moment, most of Li Shuo's artillery fire has already landed on the city wall of the capital."
