Chapter 2646 Inquiry
Mou Yuan wrote down these words.
When Wei Xiao saw that the scolding above had stopped, he shouted again: "Zhong Huan, if you have scolded enough, send a message to Emperor Jingyuan quickly... I will go into the palace to negotiate with him in person. It depends on whether he has the courage to see me!"
"You are not afraid of dying in the palace, so how can His Majesty be afraid?" After Zhong Huan said this, he finally gave him a promise: "I will convey your words to Your Majesty, go back and wait for the decree!"
Waiting for the will?
"Emperor Jing Yuan proposed the negotiation first, and we agreed to the conditions. Now we have to wait for the decree. Is Emperor Jing Yuan playing tricks on us? Tell him that he can't afford to play tricks on the Wei family now!" Wei Xiao was afraid that things would change if it was too late! , I didn’t want to wait any longer, so I shouted this deliberately.
But Zhong Huan said: "Before the country is given to you, it belongs to your Majesty. Everything in this world is still your Majesty's final decision. How long you are asked to wait is entirely up to your Majesty. If you are not satisfied, you can Raise your troops and attack the city!"
asshole!
Wei Xiao cursed in his heart, if he could easily capture the iron-barrel-like capital, would he still argue with them?
"Two days, I will give Emperor Jingyuan two days to think about it. At this time two days later, Emperor Jingyuan must give me an answer!" After Wei Xiao dropped the words, he rode away.
Zhong Huan smiled: "You still know how to find a way out for yourself."
Then he said: "Let's go into the palace to see His Majesty."
After leaving Wu Changzhen and others to guard the tower, he took Mouyuan and others to the palace together.
At this time, the sky was already dark and the palace gates had been closed long ago, but Emperor Jingyuan had a decree to let Zhong Huan, Wu Changzhen and others in without being bound by palace rules as long as they asked for an audience.
…
"Your Majesty." Zhong Huan shouted in front of the bed, but he had not seen Emperor Jing Yuan for two hours. He seemed to be a lot more depressed, like an old tree stump buried in the soil, with an aura of decay all over his body.
Emperor Jingyuan was awake, but he didn't open his eyes: "What's the matter?"
Zhong Huan told Wei Xiao and others that they had agreed to the conditions, requested another negotiation, and that Qin Sanlang might have arrived with troops: "I wonder if the Marquis of Qin wants to be the emperor?"
Emperor Jingyuan frowned when he heard this. After taking a breath for a while, he asked old doctor Wu: "How long can I live?"
Old Doctor Wu said: "If you take good care of him, he can live for two months if he only breathes. Normally, he can live for about ten days and a half."
His Majesty fought in the war when he was young and was seriously injured twice. In the past ten years, he has experienced several great tragedies. His body has long been exhausted. Coupled with the poisoning, he will die at any time now. He can live another ten years. Half a month is already a miracle.
Emperor Jingyuan: "Delay until he replies~"
Zhong Huan: "Yes, I will send someone to pick up the hidden stake, and I will definitely get the reply from Marquis Qin as soon as possible."
Emperor Jingyuan nodded and hummed.
Zhong Huan thought for a moment and then asked: "If the Marquis of Qin is willing, will your Majesty really pass the position to him?"
Although I really don’t want to admit it, “This is a big mess. It will take at least thirty years to turn it around completely.”
There are only two or thirty years in his life. If Qin Mu becomes emperor, he will have to work on this mess for the rest of his life until he dies.
During this period, in order to maintain the overall situation, he had to kill many people, and among these people there must be his old relatives and friends. Even in his later years, he had to face his sons competing for the throne. In order to stabilize the overall situation, he committed suicide. Come on... a person with a heart like his will live in extreme pain because of this!
Emperor Jingyuan was very tired and did not answer immediately. He fell asleep for more than a quarter of an hour. After regaining his energy, he said: "I don't want him to suffer... But if he really chooses, he will have to bear all the suffering himself, and no one will." I can’t help him, cough cough cough!”
"Your Majesty, don't get excited." Doctor Wu hurriedly stepped forward to calm Emperor Jingyuan, and gave him a few more injections to make him feel better.
Emperor Jingyuan waved his hand and said: "We are talking and delaying. After he replies, I will see Wei Xiao again."
"Yes." Zhong Huan agreed and went out quickly.
In the outer hall, Ouyang Zhang and Mr. Feng are still looking at the memorial. Now Ouyang Zhang is the elder of the pavilion and handles some government affairs on behalf of His Majesty, while Gu Jinan, Feng Yu, and Yan Xiaowu are helping them.
When the two sides met, they just nodded to each other and went about their own business without saying anything else.
After Zhong Huan left the imperial city, he returned to the tower and continued to guard.
Two days later in the evening, Wei Xiao came over again and asked, "Zhong Huan, does Emperor Jingyuan agree to the interview?!"
Zhong Huan: "His Majesty proposed this matter first, and His Majesty naturally agreed. However, during the last negotiation, Zhou Huang injured Your Majesty with poison, which made His Majesty feel a little sick. Let's wait for a day or two, the day after tomorrow. , the day after tomorrow, you lead a hundred people into the city, and we will discuss the details of various conditions, and that’s it!”
He decided it himself, without giving Wei Xiao a chance to refuse.
Wei Xiao had no choice but to agree.
After returning to the Wei Jiajun camp, Wei Xiao told the news to all the ministers and generals. Everyone frowned and felt that this was too long, but as long as Emperor Jingyuan still recognized the situation, it would be done.
Wei Qi saw that the guys didn't say anything against it, so he could only grit his teeth and wait for one more day.
Lord Wang looked at him and said: "King Wei, the weather is still a bit hot in August now, so the corpses cannot be kept for long. It is better to find a piece of land first and bury the corpses of Dongyuan Shanjun and others. After the great cause is completed, How about you move his grave as a disciple and complete the master-disciple relationship?"
Wei Qi agreed: "Okay, let's hold a funeral tomorrow and bury Master and the others."
When they were put down again, the corpses stinked, and Yan Kuang and the others were killed by Emperor Jing Yuan. The corpses were kept in the camp, reminding him of this failure all the time, which really made him unhappy.
"Yes." Mr. Wang went down to do it.
The next day, Wei Qi was busy all day and finally buried Yan Kuang and others.
At Mao o'clock on the third day, the entire Wei army was in full formation. Wei Xiao, with his men and horses, arrived at the city gate at exactly the right time. It was very punctual.
However, because there were too many people and Zhong Huan was cunning, it was not until noon that Wei Xiao was able to enter the capital with all his ministers and generals.
But they failed to go to the imperial city, but went to the Wucheng Bingma Si Yamen.
The place is heavily guarded and there are soldiers everywhere. It is very safe for Zhong Huan and the others.
Zhong Huandao: "Your Majesty is ill, so we don't need to bother discussing the details of the terms. I ordered Mr. Ouyang Ge, Mr. Feng, and this officer to lead all the civil and military officials in the capital, as well as the famous noble families, to come with us." King Xiao Wei will discuss the details.”
Wei Xiao clenched his fists in anger: "Zhong Huan, you are kidding me!"
What he said the day before yesterday was that he wanted to interview Emperor Jingyuan, but he came in person and couldn't see Emperor Jingyuan's people, so he had to argue with ministers like them.
After that, they still have to wait for them to report to Emperor Jingyuan, and then wait for Emperor Jingyuan to make a decision. Then when will the outcome of this matter for Jiangshan be reached? !
"Xiao Wei Wang, you are wronging me by saying this." Zhong Huan said: "You are in charge of the army. You should understand that when negotiating between two parties, the subordinates should talk first. After the talks are almost done, the coaches of both sides will meet again. Only in this way can we get twice the result with half the effort. Otherwise, the coaches of both sides will come to argue every time. How would that be done? Isn’t the King Wei of your Wei Family Army also here?”
Such words almost made Wei Xiao draw his sword and kill someone, but on the surface, Wei Qi was the king of the Wei family army, and Zhong Huan stunned Wei Xiao until he was speechless.
