The Jagged Empire of Daqin

Chapter 256 No Palace Card, Please Come Back!

"Yeah, although this consensus is unfair to us, it is also reasonable. My own family fights back, but I will never tolerate foreign races coveting the land of Kyushu. People who are not my race will have different hearts. If the Huns destroy Jin, the Huns The strength will inevitably increase greatly, and the reason why the lips are dead and the teeth are cold, I believe that all colleagues will not be unaware of it!"

"It's too unfair. I have no intention of sending troops to aid Jin at all!"

"Who thinks, none of you here think!"

After Chang Zifei finished speaking, all the ministers began to whisper among each other, feeling uncomfortable and feeling like they were being forced.

"We will definitely send troops from the Great Qin Dynasty. There is no need to discuss this matter. You should discuss it. When the Jin envoy will send people up, how can we discuss the conditions for sending troops!" Ying Chang said calmly.

Du Changjing’s idea is to attack the Huns to control the Bailan Prairie, and once the Qin army hits the Huns, no matter where they fight, it is considered to send troops to aid Jin. In this way, the Great Qin Empire can be considered to have achieved the Kyushu consensus, so there is no need to discuss whether to send troops or not to send troops .

In fact, even if Du Changjing had no idea of ​​attacking the Xiongnu to control the Bailan Prairie, the Great Qin Empire would have to send troops, because the Kyushu consensus was beneficial to Qin.

All the ministers came to their senses after hearing the words, yes, they had already decided to attack the Xiongnu, what's the point of discussing this, now they should discuss how the lion opened its mouth wide and took a bite of fat from the Jin Empire to satisfy itself.

"Your Majesty, if the Jin envoys come to ask for help, let's not say that we need 500 million taels of military pay, 300 million taels of pensions, and 1000 million shi of grain!" Speaking of this, Jia Luo, Minister of the Household Department, was full of strength and opened his mouth. That is 800 million taels of silver and 1000 million shi grains.

"Is it too little?" Niu Yicao, the left servant of Hubu, muttered softly.

"Is it less?" Jia Luo thought for a while and found that it was indeed less, "Then 800 million taels of military pay, 500 million taels of pensions, plus [-] shi of grain, and one tael of silver less. If there is one less grain, we will not do it!"

"Haha!" Ying Chang couldn't help laughing, "Okay, then it's settled!"

"Hahaha!"

All the ministers couldn't help laughing.

"If there is nothing wrong, then retreat!" Ying Chang said, looking around at the officials.

The voice fell, and no one came out. After the three-breath time passed, Ying Chang slowly got up from the dragon chair. Seeing this, all the officials bowed down to salute and shouted: "I will send you off to Your Majesty, my emperor, long live, long live! Long live!"

Yingchang quickly disappeared from the eyes of the officials, and when Yingchang left, all the officials also went together, leaving the solemn and sacred Qilin Palace one after another.

On February 11th, the [-]th year of the Holy Qin Dynasty, the fourth day of the Huns' invasion of the South!

On this day, the Xiongnu temporarily stopped their attack, and the whole army rested for a day, giving the people of the Jin Dynasty time to escape. Seeing that the Xiongnu had not moved for a while, and the Great Wall on the northern border of Qin did not move!

On February 11th, the [-]th year of the Holy Qin Dynasty, the seventh day of the Huns' invasion of the south!

From February 3th to February [-]th, the Xiongnu once again captured many villages in two counties, massacred more than [-] Jin citizens, and captured [-] Jin women. In the huge Weihe County, more than half of the county was slaughtered. On the fifth day, the whole county was slaughtered!

The Xiongnu used the strategy of fighting to support war. Wherever they passed, howling was everywhere, and blood flowed into rivers, filling the land with elegy and blood. The wanton killing of the Xiongnu aroused the anger of countless Jin people, but the anger could not kill the Xiongnu, it would only kill the Xiongnu. Let the Huns be more rampant.

And the Great Wall camp on the border of the Hebei County of the Great Qin Empire already had an attitude of watching a show, and did nothing but daily training. The Qin army did so, and Lin Lin Zhang, who was stationed on the Great Wall in northern Shanxi, breathed a sigh of relief. It is even more certain that the Qin army will not aid Jin.

At the same time, the Qin army did not send troops to aid Jin, which also made the Xiongnu feel proud. They thought that the Qin army was afraid of them and did not dare to send troops. The [-] Huns who stopped outside the Great Wall on the border of Qinbei often talked happily, and some were drunk The Xiongnu ran to the Great Wall of Qinbei to act wildly and provoke.

On February 11th, the 13th year of the Holy Qin Dynasty, the Xiongnu invaded the south for No. 30 days. In just [-] days, the whole Weihe County fell. Taking Weihe County so effortlessly made the Huns self-inflated!

Chaercan Hai's original plan was to rob a county and leave, but seeing the Jin Empire as the fish under the sword, there was no power to resist, and it would be a pity not to take it. Therefore, the Xiongnu continued to extend eastward, and the goal was determined to be Jinling. .

Jinling is the imperial capital of the Great Jin Empire, and there must be more treasures. How could the Xiongnu give up Jinling, a great treasure.

The speed of the Xiongnu was so fast, which the court of the Jin Dynasty did not expect. It was originally thought that it would take at least a month for the Huns to conquer Weihe County, but they did not expect that the entire county would fall in just a dozen days. They have not yet recruited soldiers and horses, and Huangshi soldiers and horses have just been mobilized.

According to the speed of the Huns, the Huns had already reached Jinling City before the Huangshi soldiers and horses arrived!

Great Qin Empire, Xianyang City, Imperial Palace, Chengde Gate!

"Get out of the way quickly, I have something urgent to discuss with Emperor Qin!"

Outside the Chengde Gate, more than 30 powerful imperial guards guarded the gate and sealed the Chengde Gate. The person opposite the Imperial Guards was definitely the prime minister of the Jin Empire, Qiu Yixiao. At this time, Qiu Yixiao had an angry face. Her hair was quite disheveled, and her dark blue Baihe Buzi's court clothes were crooked, looking extremely embarrassed.

It took Qiu Yixiao only ten days to travel thousands of miles from Jinling City to Xianyang. During these ten days, he only slept for two hours, and spent the rest of the time on the road, killing dozens of horses. Go to the Ministry of Rites to register, and go directly to the palace to meet Ying Chang, because he knows that the time of the Great Jin Empire is running out!

If the Qin Empire did not send troops for a day, tens of thousands of people in the Jin Empire would be slaughtered. Therefore, he had no time to tidy up his appearance. He just wanted to negotiate terms with Emperor Qin Yingchang as soon as possible, and let the Qin army send troops to aid Jin as soon as possible!

But it turned out that he couldn't eat hot tofu in a hurry, because he didn't register with the Ministry of Rites, and Qiu Yixiao didn't have the palace badge issued by the Ministry of Rites, so he couldn't enter the palace, and was ruthlessly blocked by many imperial guards.

"No palace card, please go back!" A chief of the imperial guards replied coldly.

"This envoy really has something urgent to do, so please report to the general quickly!" Qiu Yixiao said to the Chief of the Imperial Guard.

The Chief of the Imperial Guard remained silent, and the rest of the Imperial Guard were even more silent, their expressions indifferent and frightening. Seeing this, Qiu Yixiao couldn't help shouting angrily: "You are really presumptuous and rude, is this you? Is it the Qin people's way of hospitality?"

PS: "Ask for a full reservation, ask for a monthly ticket, ask for a recommendation ticket, and ask for a reward. Don't hide your recommendation tickets. The old Qin people never talk, be quick, and just vote!"

Chapter 257 Do You Have Someone Like Others?

Fadao reminds you: ask for collection () after reading, and it is more convenient to read again.

"The real minister is the prime minister of the Jin Empire. Logically, you should treat him with national courtesy, but you keep the real minister out of the palace and prevent the real minister from meeting the Emperor Qin. What are your intentions!"

"The truth really has something important to discuss with Emperor Qin, so I would like to trouble the generals to report it, okay? It's the truth, I beg you, I beg you!"

Qiu Yixiao used up the hard ones and began to use the soft ones, with a pleading look on his face, but the imperial guards were still indifferent, treating enemies as nothing with a smile, in the eyes of the imperial guards, what kind of bullshit is the prime minister of the Jin Empire, this is the Great Qin Empire, don't Speaking of the prime minister, even if the Jin emperor came, he had to follow the rules!

Qiu Yixiao didn't know if it was because of being too tired, but suddenly fell to the ground, all the imperial guards couldn't help looking at each other, but no one went to help Qiu Yixiao, Qiu Yixiao was ashamed, lying on the ground with red eyes Looking at the cloudless sky, my heart is full of grief.

Who would have imagined that the prime minister of the Great Jin Empire, who used to be invincible in the past, would have fallen to such a state that he could not even enter the palace of the Great Qin Empire...

Imperial Palace, Royal Study Room!

In the imperial study room, Ying Chang sits high above the black dragon throne, holding a memorial in one hand and an apple in the other. He glances at the memorial and takes a bite of the apple. A smile is in stark contrast.

At this moment, a pretty young court lady came in. This court lady was Xiao Wei, who was Tang Hua's confidant.

Xiaowei walked in, Yingchang didn't pay attention, and continued to read the memorial and eat apples, but as soon as Xiaowei walked into the imperial study, he immediately lowered his head, then carefully walked around Yingchang, walked to Tang Hua, and leaned next to Tang Hua. He whispered a few words in his ear, and after finishing speaking, he quickly exited the imperial study room.

After Xiao Wei retreated, Tang Hua rubbed Ying Chang's shoulders and pressed his back, and whispered softly, "Your Majesty, Prime Minister Jin fainted outside the palace. Has Your Majesty summoned you yet?"

Ying Chang raised his hand to grab the apple, Tang Hua quickly stopped, knelt gently beside Ying Chang, took the half-eaten apple with both hands, put it on the wooden tray next to it, and took out another Zhang silk scarf often wipes hands for Win.

"If you faint, you will faint. It's no big deal. It's okay to die!" Yingchang said disapprovingly, then picked up a brush and reviewed a memorial. Tang Hua stopped talking and continued rubbing his shoulders and back for Ying.

Yingchang did not continue to review the memorial, moved his body back, looked out of the hall with sharp sword-like eyes, seemed to be lost in thought, and after a while, he said: "Take someone to arrest Min Qing, the empress of sin, Chen Qiu Yisheng brought it, it's time for them to meet each other!"

"Obey!" Tang Hua bowed respectfully and bowed, and quickly exited the imperial study.

Outside the palace!

Qiu Yixiao was still lying on the cold floor, staring at the sky without blinking, like a dead body, at this moment, a carriage came from a distance, and when the carriage approached Chengde Gate about ten steps away, it stopped immediately down.

"Master, slow down!" The housekeeper of the Changfu, Lao Fang respectfully lifted the curtain of the car, and saw Chang Zifei, the prime minister of the Great Qin Empire, walking out of the carriage in court uniform. Ji saluted and shouted: "I have seen the prime minister!"

"Excuse me, excuse me!" Chang Zifei nodded with a smile, and then looked at Qiu Yixiao who was lying on the ground. Chang Zifei was not surprised that Qiu Yixiao appeared here, because he came here precisely for Qiu came with a smile.

Chang Zifei walked up to Qiu Yixiao with a smile on his face. Seeing Chang Zifei, Qiu Yixiao immediately turned his head to the side. Chang Zifei couldn't help but smiled, squatted down gently, and patted Qiu Yixiao's hand. "Chou Xiang, what are you doing? Why are you lying here? Doesn't my Great Qin Palace have a place for Your Excellency?"

"Hehe, there is really no place for the real face in this huge Qin Palace!" Qiu Yixiao lay on the ground and sneered, then turned his body to one side.

Chang Zifei got up immediately, walked to the other side of Qiu Yixiao, Qiu Yixiao turned his body around again, anyway, he just didn't want to face Chang Zifei face to face, seeing this, Chang Zifei couldn't laugh or cry, knowing that Qiu Yixiao was living the Qin Empire's way of hospitality angry.

Chang Zifei can also understand this matter. After all, Qiu Yixiao is the prime minister of the Great Jin Empire. Although the Jin Empire has suffered a series of defeats and its national strength is not as good as before, he is still a high-ranking prime minister. Now he is under the influence of birds in the Great Qin Empire , naturally unacceptable.

"Oh, what's the need for Prime Minister Qiu? Hurry up, get up." Chang Zifei bent down to help Qiu Yixiao up, which was a step down for Qiu Yixiao. Next, Qiu Yixiao stood up, and then slapped the dust on his body with great force, as if venting the anger in his heart.

Chang Zifei walked up to the imperial guards, and pretended to berate him: "Why are you treating our distinguished guests from Daqin so rudely? Didn't the palace teach you basic etiquette? You don't help people when they fall down, just in case What if the old man Qiu Xiang froze to death, do you have his old man's body and bones?"

"Huh?" Qiu Yixiao stared, and the guards blushed. Chang Zifei quickly waved his hands and laughed, "Slip of the tongue, slip of the tongue, I'm used to scolding dogs and scolding at home, I'm really sorry, Xiang Qiu!"

"Puff!" One of the imperial guards couldn't help laughing, and then immediately suppressed it, while the rest of the imperial guards trembled from laughing, and tried their best to hold back their laughter.

"Okay, hurry up and enter the palace!" Qiu Yixiao almost exploded his lungs, who the hell is that.

"Okay, what are you still doing in a daze, why don't you open the way!" Chang Zifei continued to pretend to berate all the imperial guards, and all the imperial guards backed away from the sides holding back their smiles, making way for a way out, Qiu smiled Blowing his beard and staring angrily, he walked into the palace angrily flicking his sleeves.

Seeing Qiu Yixiao's embarrassed back, Chang Zifei also blushed and wanted to laugh out loud, but at this moment, Qiu Yixiao suddenly turned around and shouted at Chang Zifei angrily: "Hurry up, lead the way!"

He had only been to Qin Gong once, and he didn't know where to go.

"I'm coming!"

"Old Fang, you go back and prepare a big banquet first, and I want to entertain Prime Minister Qiu!"

"Okay, master, don't worry, it will be done properly!"

After Chang Zifei greeted Lao Fang, the housekeeper, he walked towards the Royal Study Room with a smile on his face.

At the same time, Oasis Palace!

The door of Ganquan Palace, which had not been opened for a long time, was pushed open. Since it had not been cleaned for a long time, a thick layer of dust fell when the door was pushed open. He walked in expressionlessly, while Tang Hua sat on the stone bench that Ying Chang had sat in the past and waited.

Chapter 258 Let them meet each other!

After a while, two court ladies led Min Qing out. Min Qing was dressed in white and her hair was gradually turning white, but even so, her eyes were still sharp and she exuded a faint majesty. Many court ladies saw Min Qing's pale face , can't help but feel a chill.

Seeing people coming out, Tang Hua walked up to Min Qing in a dignified and generous way. Perhaps others would be afraid of the former empress dowager who covered the sky with one hand, but she was not.

In terms of status, she is the chief steward of the palace. In terms of status, she is the first woman of the Great Qin Emperor. In terms of background, the Great Qin Emperor stands behind her. In terms of beauty, Min Qing, who is not inferior to her peak state, is no worse than Min Qing in everything. There is no reason to be afraid of an empress dowager whose glory is no longer there!

"After the crime, Min Qing, Your Majesty wants to... crack!"

A loud crisp sound sounded, Tang Hua tilted his head to one side, a deep red palm print appeared on his delicate cheek, and a trace of blood overflowed from the corner of his mouth. The rest of the maids saw this scene, their eyes were horrified, and they were at a loss for a while, because This was played by Min Qing!

"What are you? After you dare to call Aijia a crime, seeing that you have become the leader of the palace at a young age, you don't know what method you used to confuse that little emperor!" Min Qing looked at Tang Hua coldly. , like Her Majesty the Empress.

In the huge imperial palace, only Min Qing dared to expose the open secret between Yingchang and Tang Hua in front of so many people. She also has the qualifications and strength. No matter how miserable and lonely she is, she is still The mother of the Great Qin Emperor, this is a fact that no one can change.

Tang Hua calmly wiped the blood from the corners of his mouth with the front of his clothes, and did not yell like a mad woman. The previous palace staff had endured, so this slap was nothing.

After wiping the blood overflowing from the corners of his mouth, Tang Hua bowed down dignifiedly and generously, and then said in a calm tone: "To be honored by His Majesty is a blessing that a servant can't achieve forever. The servant who is today is all thanks to His Majesty's favor." , Your Majesty's great grace, I am willing to be a cow and a horse to repay you, and I will not be like someone who repays the late emperor with the blood of countless loyal ministers!"

"Snapped!"

There was another loud and crisp sound, and a crimson slap print appeared on both cheeks of Tang Hua, his face was red and swollen, and the corners of his mouth were overflowing with blood again, Min Qing slapped Tang Hua twice in a row without getting discouraged, and grabbed Tang Hua directly. The painted skirts were slapped one after another!

"Clap! Clap! Clap!"

"You bitch, how dare you mock Aijia!"

"Crack! Crack!"

Min Qing slapped Tang Hua angrily and scolded Tang Hua in a cold voice, but Tang Hua didn't resist and let Min Qing slap her to vent.

"Quickly pull them away!"

The maid next to her also understood the importance of the matter at this moment, and hurriedly separated the two of them. Otherwise, Min Qing could beat Tang Hua to death. Once Tang Hua died, His Majesty's anger would definitely be poured on them, and Min Qing was purely barefoot. Those who are not afraid of wearing shoes are not afraid of consequences at all.

"Director Tang, are you alright?"

"Come on, pass the imperial doctor!"

"No, a little injury, it's okay, take the empress to the imperial study immediately!" Tang Hua quickly waved his hand and refused to invite the imperial physician.

Min Qing gritted her teeth angrily when she heard that Tang Hua claimed that she was guilty of a crime. She wanted to kill Tang Hua. Perhaps in Min Qing's eyes, Tang Hua was a lowly person, and she was the eldest princess of the Great Jin Empire and the queen mother of the Great Qin Empire. , such a noble status, after being called a sin by a lowly person, the only pride left in her heart drove her crazy.

But no matter how angry she was, she couldn't get rid of the shackles of the maids...

Yong Xiangsi!

Under Yongxiangsi, there is a dungeon. The dungeon is dark, with no fingers sticking out, and it still smells rancid from time to time. Xiaowei, the confidant of the chief executive of the palace, led five eunuchs down the stone ladder to the dungeon. light up.

As soon as the oil lamp was turned on, the dungeon also lit up, and I could see the appearance of the dungeon clearly. The dungeon was a water dungeon. The water dungeon was round in shape, and there was a stone platform in the center. It is from these stagnant waters that the stench emanates.

And there is an iron cage on the stone platform, and a white-haired old man is sitting in the iron cage. His body is dirty and his clothes are tattered. He looks like a beggar. He is the Great Jin Empire and the Great Qin Empire. Qiu Yisheng, the Taifu of the two countries!

For three years, he has been imprisoned here for three years. During these three years, he has not received any news from the outside world. Calculate the fate of the Jin Empire.

Hearing someone coming down, Qiu Yisheng couldn't help frowning, now is not the time to eat, why are there still people coming at this time, could it be that the Jin army has entered Xianyang?That's right, it must be, the Jin army came to save me!

Qiu Yisheng turned his head to look full of expectation. When he saw the court ladies and several eunuchs, Qiu Yisheng's eyes dimmed. He sighed inwardly, closed his eyes gently, and thought to himself, what is Your Majesty doing? According to the development speed of the Jin Empire , should have the strength to destroy the Qin Empire, why has there been no movement after three years.

The pungent smell made Xiaowei and her group cover their noses, and tried to disperse the pungent smell with their hands. Xiaowei resisted the smell and pointed to the iron cage, ordering to the five eunuchs: " Hurry up and take him out to take a bath, it stinks to death!"

"Yes!" The five eunuchs nodded their heads and stepped into the sticky stagnant water carefully. As soon as they stepped in, the eunuchs almost fainted from nausea. When Qiu Yisheng heard Xiaowei's words, he opened his eyes immediately, with doubts in his eyes .

take me out?What does it mean?Could it be that the Jin army really broke in?

Thinking of this idea, Qiu Yisheng couldn't help shaking his head and gave a wry smile, and immediately dismissed the idea. If the Jin army really came in, then the ones who came in to rescue him must not be the court ladies and eunuchs, and judging by the expressions of these eunuchs and court ladies, it would be hard to tell. It's like the state of a large army.

Why on earth did you take yourself out?Could it be that the court of the Great Jin Empire put pressure on the Great Qin Empire and released him to return home?

Well, this is still possible.

Thinking of this, Qiu Yisheng's mind immediately became active, and at the same time he was relieved that he could finally see the scenery outside. He had enough of staying in this ghostly place.

Imperial study room!
