Chapter 747: Who Told Her
Seeing that he mentioned Princess Shaoyang, Lu Chen's heart couldn't help but tighten slightly, which was also something he was worried about.
There is no doubt that if Lu Chen agrees to Heqing to destroy Chu, then Princess Shaoyang will inevitably cry and cry endlessly.
It's impossible for a real king to be controlled by a woman in military affairs! Even if he loves Shaoyang again, it won't work!
At this time, Lu Boyan said again: "Great King, if you really destroy the Chu State, it will be tantamount to fueling the enemy's situation, and then the Qing Kingdom will definitely turn around and attack our country again!" ”
What he said, of course Lu Chen knew, but this step was inevitable.
As soon as Lu Boyan's words were finished, the other ministers also said: "I hope the king will think twice."
Seeing that there were so many ministers opposed, Lu Chen took a deep breath, and then said in a slow voice: "Okay, what the ministers mean, this king understands, this matter will also be seriously considered by this king, you all retreat first." ”
The king did not make a decision, and when the ministers heard this, they knelt on the ground and couldn't help but glance at each other, and then they could only say: "The ministers are leaving"
After they all left, next, Lu Chen summoned Sima Wen, Chen Qun and others in the study in turn.
Chen Qun was the first to propose that Heqing destroy Chu, on this issue, he said to Lu Chen: "Chu State is left and right, swaying, two sides and three swords, it is allied today, tomorrow it is possible to ally Qing, there is no faith at all, and the king wants to dominate the world, Chu must be destroyed, and we must take advantage of our current occupation of Sanjiangkou and Hanyang, otherwise, it will drag it behind, the situation is difficult to control, and more importantly, Chu has just experienced civil war attrition, and the country is still unstable, the king should take this opportunity to make a decision early!" ”
Here, he is strongly admonishing Lu Chen to destroy Chu, and after he leaves, Sima Wen comes in, and it is the same statement, but after putting forward his own opinion, Sima Wen said cautiously: "King, if the matter of destroying Chu is known by the princess......
"Shaoyang ......" Lu Chen closed his eyes, and then said quietly: "She can't control the determination of this king to dominate the world!" ”
Then there was Liu Yuan, he said to Lu Chen: "King, if our country does not destroy Chu now, then Chu will definitely try to recover Hanyang and Sanjiangkou, once our country loses these two strategic places, then even if we want to destroy Chu again, there is a Yangtze River moat, I am afraid it will be more difficult than attacking Qing." ”
Sanjiangkou and Hanyang, these two places, if it were not for the civil strife in Chu at the beginning, how could the Feng army take advantage of the situation to occupy it, such a strategic place is also a necessary condition for the Feng army to enter Chu.
At the beginning, it seemed that the two armies of Fengqing were fighting in Chu, but in fact, when the two armies retreated, they were stuck in the key points of the Chu State, and they also laid the groundwork for the destruction of Chu very early.
The three important ministers had the same opinion, which also made Lu Chen immediately make up his mind.
On the second day, Lu Chen personally met with Shangguan Jin, and while drinking with the latter, he also said: "Prime Minister Shangguan, there is still a doubt under this king, and I also ask Prime Minister Shangguan to solve his doubts." ”
"Please show me the Wind King." Shangguan Jin hurriedly said.
Lu Chen thought for a while and said: "If the two countries work together to destroy Chu, when the war starts, the Chu State is defeated, then it will inevitably seek peace. ”
"Still extinguished!" Shangguan Jin said directly.
"Good!" Hearing this, Lu Chen didn't say anything more, but picked up the wine glass in front of him, and said with a hearty smile: "Come, this king will give another glass to the prime minister!" ”
"Your Highness, please." Shangguan Jin also hurriedly raised his wine glass with both hands.
After the Wind King Lu Chen made a decision, Shangguan Jin did not stay in Fengzhou for long, but resigned and began to return to Qingdi.
As for this result, many ministers of the Wind Country began to persuade Lu Chen in the court, except for Sima Wen and a few others, people fell to their knees.
The ministers have the thoughts of the ministers, and they can't say that they are wrong, they can only say that in their opinion, Qingguo is more terrible than Chu, and their own country should not conspire with Qingguo, even if they don't destroy Chu, their country can still be invincible among the three kingdoms, but if Chu is destroyed, there are only two countries left in the world, and there are some potential dangers in their own country.
Lu Chen also understands this truth, but his determination to dominate the world is beyond doubt!
Above the court, looking at the ministers who were kneeling down, he stood up and shouted: "This king has made up his mind!" Never change! You don't have to persuade again! Retreat! ”
Lu Chen, the king, is absolutely decisive to kill, and the ministers also have a certain understanding of their own monarch, seeing that Lu Chen has left, people sighed, when he left the court, Lu Boyan said to Sima Wen: "Lord Sima is a product of the dynasty, today's court, why don't you say a word!" ”
He was blaming Sima Wen for why he didn't come out to advise, but where did he know that Sima Wen was in support of the destruction of Chu!
After hearing this, the latter also smiled slightly, and said in a flat voice: "Before the king makes a decision, the persuasion of the ministers will still play a role, but once the king has made up his mind, no one can change it." ”
In fact, Sima Wen and his group of ministers who followed Lu Chen from Pingzhou are completely different from the Jing officials, Jing officials or the old ministers of the Wind Country are more concerned about the stability of the country and there is no war in the Wind Country, while Sima Wen and his several strategists are more concerned about helping Lu Chen dominate the world and complete the supreme feat.
To put it bluntly, Sima Wen and Chen Qun represent the radicals, while Lu Boyan and Wang Song represent the conservatives.
A few days later, in the palace study.
Liang Xiao walked in quickly, and Shi Li said, "The king, the princess is ......."
Before he finished speaking, Princess Shaoyang had already walked in, her face was still stained with tears, and after seeing Lu Chen, she asked directly: "Are you planning to attack Chu?" ”
Unexpectedly, she actually found here, in front of Princess Shaoyang, Lu Chen didn't know how to answer this question, so he couldn't help but put down the bamboo slip in his hand and looked at her with a complicated expression.
"Husband, are you planning to attack Chu, answer me?" As Princess Shaoyang spoke, tears fell from her eyes, and she also took two steps forward.
Seeing this, Lu Chen took a deep breath, then glared at Liang Xiao, and said angrily, "Who told her!" Who told her!? ”
This kind of thing, how dare Liang Xiao tell Princess Shaoyang, hearing Lu Chen's angry shouting, he couldn't help but swallow his saliva, and said cautiously: "Weichen...... Wechen doesn't know ......"
"It must be Lu Boyan's ministers!" Lu Chen waved his hand irritably, signaling him to step back.
Liang Xiao hurriedly saluted and retreated, now that the situation is not right, how can he want to stay here.
And after he left, Princess Shaoyang took a few steps forward and said with tears in her eyes: "You are my husband, I am your wife, and the country of Chu is my mother country, how can you attack the ...... of Chu"
