Imperial City, Tai Chi Hall!
Yan Jiaoran was still engaged in a war of words with the court ministers who had their own ulterior motives.
"Your Majesty, time waits for no man. Please send an order to the princes from all regions to come to the capital to quell the rebellion as soon as possible!"
"Your Majesty, the princes are all pillars of the Great Zhou. They certainly won't be as ambitious as the King of Qin. Please make a decision soon and don't miss the opportunity to fight!"
"Your Majesty, the rebels are valiant and cannot be defeated without the combined might of our nation. Do not hesitate any longer!"
“…”
Minister after minister kowtowed and offered advice.
What a loyal patriot!
What a loyalty!
They were almost about to reveal all their passion and loyalty.
Yan Jiaoran sat on the dragon throne and pursed her red lotus-like lips in disdain.
Sneered continuously.
Without saying a word.
Just quietly watched the performance of the ministers below.
Maybe he saw that the time was ripe.
Yang Yingguang stepped out again.
At the same time, the originally noisy voices of advice suddenly died down.
The Tai Chi Hall, which was previously as noisy as a vegetable market, suddenly became quiet again, as quiet as a ghost cave.
Yang Yingguang walked to the front, bent slightly and saluted.
Then he said calmly: "Your Majesty, for the safety of the Great Zhou, please draft an edict!"
According to his idea.
As long as the emperor orders the princes of the world to come to Beijing to defend the king.
At that time, the princes who intend to get their hands on the throne will surely engage in open and secret struggles.
The entire Jingzhou City might turn into a battlefield and become a mess.
This situation is a great opportunity to take advantage of the situation, raise prices arbitrarily, and ask for exorbitant prices.
Therefore, he strongly requested that the princes lead their troops into Beijing.
Unexpectedly, Yan Jiaoran just smiled coldly, with contempt in her voice, and said lightly: "No need."
"They are just a few rebels. I have a plan to defeat them."
What!
Yang Yingguang suddenly raised his eyes and glanced at Yan Jiaoran, his face full of surprise, obviously he did not expect this answer.
No way, this is absolutely impossible!
Yang Yingguang's heart was in turmoil.
The enemy is at the gate.
All officials forced the emperor to abdicate.
The public was outraged.
People want change.
What else can the empress do?
Who else can the empress rely on?
Relying on Li Yaoshi and the 30,000 newly formed Shen Ce Army?
The Qin King's vanguard was unstoppable and reached the city of Jingzhou in a short time. How brave they were!
Even he had to sacrifice tens of thousands of carefully bribed guards.
Where does the empress get the confidence to win?
Yang Yingguang was puzzled, his brows raised, and he advised: "Your Majesty, state affairs are more important, don't be petty."
The words fell.
His followers also stepped forward.
"Your Majesty, although there are 100,000 guards in the city, the enemy is too fierce and they can't hold out for many more days!"
"Your Majesty, even if we deployed 100,000 guards, it wouldn't be enough to defend the huge Jingzhou City!"
"Your Majesty, the people of the Great Zhou have just recovered from the effects of the drought and cannot endure the ravages of war again. We must end this war quickly to minimize the impact on the people!"
"Your Majesty, you are right. Please put the country and the people first!"
"Your Majesty, please put the country and the people first!"
“…”
In the court, voices were rising one after another, and everyone echoed them, creating an extremely warm atmosphere.
Seeing this, Kong Lingda snorted coldly and cursed in his heart.
You bastard!
I don’t know which prince he is colluding with!
Whether it's war or peace, once the weapons are deployed and the flames of war have begun, aren't the people the ones who suffer?
A tyrant ruler is in power!
The great Zhou...
In the huge court...
All these nobles are such shameless people who don't care about the people!
As he thought about it, a hint of anger appeared on Kong Lingda's face.
Then, he stepped forward, hunched over, and suggested once again, "Your Majesty, do not start a war lightly!"
"Once the princes of the world enter the capital, war will break out and countless lives will be lost!"
Yang Yingguang's imperial censor immediately retorted, "Master Kong is wrong. How can we suppress the rebellion without inviting the princes to the capital?"
"Rely on your broken body, or on the 100,000 guards in the city?"
"General Pan Feng and his 30,000 guards were no match for Hua Zijian's 3,000 men. How can the King of Qin defeat him with a full 30,000 men?"
Kong Lingda did not speak, and the officials of his department immediately responded:
"Master Zhu is quite right. Since the Qin army is so brave and valiant, and unrivaled in the world, why don't you leave the city and negotiate?"
"To save the Great Zhou from war, and to save the people of the Great Zhou from the suffering of separation from their wives and children, and the destruction of their families!"
It was clearly a surrender, but he spoke with confidence.
Zhu Wusi was so angry that his whole body was shaking. He raised his shaking hand slightly, pointed at the man's nose and cursed: "Traitor, traitor, traitor!"
"Bah, you shameless bastard, you still have the nerve to scold me?"
"You are a traitor, your heart deserves death!!!"
This suddenly stirred up a hornet's nest.
The two sides started to quarrel with each other, like a shrew scolding in the street.
Yan Jiaoran looked at the officials who were arguing with each other with a playful look, and memorized all their names in her mind.
The two gangs made righteous accusations and attacked each other.
In her opinion, it was just the pot calling the kettle black.
They are all cancers of the Great Zhou and must be eradicated as soon as possible!
Yan Jiaoran clenched her fists and said coldly, "My dear ministers, you are really helping me share my worries."
"It is truly a blessing for the people of the Great Zhou to have loyal ministers like you."
