Chapter 982: The Northern Moon Kingdom Returns to Qianmei
After listening to Yue Ruhong's words, Yue Ruhai asked softly:
"So your majesty is...... Have you already decided to accept Liu Tingfeng's conditions? ”
Yue Ruhong smiled lightly:
"In the future, you don't need to call me Your Majesty anymore, if everything goes well, I ...... I'll be the county guard of Kitatsuki County from now on! ”
He had a faint smile on his face, but his eyes were full of endless loneliness.
As the emperor of the Beiyue Kingdom, in the end, he had to condescend to others and become someone else's courtier, who could understand the bitter taste in his heart?
Yue Ruhai thought about it and suggested:
"Otherwise, we also choose to live in seclusion in the mountains and forests, and cultivate with peace of mind, just like the emperors of several other countries, let the juniors lead the hundred officials and the army to take refuge, and find a quiet place to cultivate with peace of mind, wouldn't it be a lot less troublesome."
Yue Ruhong shook her head and said:
"Although the world is big, except for this land in the North Moon Country, there is no place where I can feel a sense of belonging, leaving here, I don't feel at home anywhere, I don't want to leave this land."
"Actually, the real cultivation of cultivation is the mind, and there is no need to deliberately avoid it, as long as you adjust your mentality, you don't need to live in seclusion in the mountains and forests, and you can find inner peace."
"If you don't do the emperor, you can reduce a lot of pressure, and you don't have to worry about a country, in fact, it is also a good choice, in my opinion, being in the court, it is also a good place to practice, in the face of the disturbances of the world, you can also maintain inner peace, that is a kind of realm improvement."
"Perhaps, if you learn to let go, you will also gain something else!"
After a pause, Yue Ruhong explained to herself:
"I have lived for thousands of years, and I have experienced all the things that should be experienced, and now my greatest wish is to be able to improve my cultivation, to be able to successfully cross the tribulation, and to enter a higher realm.
Yue Ruhai looked at the side where Liu Tingfeng and the little white dragon lived, and suddenly whispered:
"Actually, we still have a way to flip it, now that General Liu and General Bai are with us, if we take them hostage and go to Mu Qianmei to talk about conditions, with the relationship between Mu Qianmei and Liu Tingfeng, will she dare not agree to the conditions we propose?"
Yue Ruhong looked at Yue Ruhai in surprise, and only sighed after a while:
"Alas, you, after all that, why don't you understand? Although the cultivation itself is a matter of going against the heavens, in the process of cultivation, we must follow the laws of the heavens to cultivate. ”
"The same is true for doing things, Mu Qianmei has become a big trend, if she does it at this moment, it is going against the current, even if she compromises temporarily, but have you thought about the things that followed?"
"If we threaten the lives of Liu Tingfeng and Bai Xiaolong, it will be equivalent to seeing through Mu Qianmei's face, after the deal is concluded, can we really live a peaceful life?"
"With Mu Qianmei's prestige in the eyes of the people now, if she doesn't move us, we will not be able to move an inch, not to mention the current Liu Tingfeng, or the identity of the leader of the martial arts alliance, we put a martial arts alliance leader under house arrest, wouldn't it be to make the world's martial arts the enemy?"
"Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon in the rivers and lakes, there are countless masters, if we offend them, we don't want to have peace one day, and even one day, how we disappeared from this world inexplicably, we don't know, we died unexplained, and it has become a mystery in the rivers and lakes."
After a pause, Yue Ruhong continued:
"This is also one of the reasons why I don't feel at ease and leave, I'm here, everyone here can follow my arrangement, if I leave, you don't know what foolish things you will do, you know, some things, once you decide, you can't turn back, how can I bear to watch you lead the people of the North Moon Country into the abyss?"
Yue Ruhai couldn't help but reply ashamedly:
"It's because I'm confused, and I'm not thoughtful for a while, so I will talk nonsense, Your Majesty...... Brother Huang learned the right lesson. ”
After Yue Ruhong calmed down for a while, she said slowly:
"Actually, it's not right to call me the royal brother, we are no longer a royal family, so call me eldest brother in the future!"
"I also thought about it a lot, the biggest responsibility for Beiyue Country to have today should be me, if we have firmly stood on the same front with Mu Qianmei from the beginning and maintained an alliance, now I don't need to put forward conditions, with Mu Qianmei's style of doing things, she will not forcibly include us in her territory, in that way, we will still be an independent country."
"Think about it, when we withdrew from the Five Nations Alliance, only the Southern Star Kingdom was left to maintain an alliance relationship with the West Rain Country, at that time, the West Rain Country itself was extremely difficult, but she resolutely and vigorously supported the South Star Country with a lot of materials to help them get through the difficulties, at this point, she is indeed as warm as spring to her friends!"
The reason why the people support her is also the same reward for her kindness to the people, when the people are in trouble and displaced, there are many people who can take in the people, but who would want to do such a thing? On the contrary, many merchants took advantage of the war to raise the price of grain and make a lot of money. ”
"Only Mu Qianmei was desperate to take them in, and even did not hesitate to spend a lot of spirit stones to build a Cuiyun City for them, what a broad mind and magnificent spirit this is!"
"This kind of courage, none of the older generation of emperors of the five countries of the fairy world have it, when the West Rain Country was invaded by the Demon Realm, at that time, we all hoped that the West Rain Country would perish, we had better divide a little land and wealth, let the five countries become four countries, and then unite to resist the demon world army."
"The one who led this was the emperor of the most powerful country in the five kingdoms of the immortal world at that time, Long Chengyuan of the Longxiao Kingdom, probably living too long in peacetime, we all forgot the cruelty of war, and thought it was too simple to resist the invasion of the demon world, and we all thought that our country was very strong, and only when we really faced the army of the demon world, did we find that we were so vulnerable."
"Even the Longxiao Kingdom can't stop the iron hooves of the Demon Realm army, but the precarious Xiyu Country has become the biggest opponent of the Demon Realm army at the last moment."
Speaking of this, Yue Ruhong couldn't help but sigh again and said:
"Perhaps, this is also providential!"
"When there is an internal struggle in the five countries of the fairy world, it is already irretrievable, everyone hopes that other countries will face the army of the demon world first, and they will be the last fisherman, they all have such thoughts, the alliance of the five countries has been torn apart, how can they resist the invasion of the army of the demon world alone?"
"In the end, one country after another was broken by them, and only a weak Xiyu country was left struggling to support, and it gradually developed to the current situation."
"Think about it, in this process, Mu Qianmei's pressure is also conceivable, it's really hard to imagine, how can a little woman who is only sixteen or seventeen years old be so powerful?"
"I think that in addition to extraordinary wisdom and strategy, the most valuable thing is the sincere love for the people!"
"We all regard ourselves as the royal family, believing that the people are our people, and when the disaster is coming, the people should sacrifice unconditionally for the royal family, because we are superior to others."
"Only Mu Qianmei understands that the king is like a boat, the people are like water, and water can carry a boat and overturn a boat, so she has always insisted on treating the people well and truly loving the people like a son."
"Demon Venerable Qu Yunyang doesn't have such a realm, so if we want to choose, we can only choose Mu Qianmei, this is already the only choice."
After listening to this, Yue Ruhai pondered for a long time before sighing:
"It turns out that this is Mu Qianmei's way to win, and at this point, she really does better!"
After finishing speaking, he couldn't help but ask suspiciously:
"Since my brother has already figured these things out, why didn't he immediately agree to Liu Tingfeng's conditions?"
Yue Ruhong smiled lightly:
"I know I can't do it, but I just want to try to fight for it!"
"If we can win independence, it will be better, even if we only keep half of the land, we can still save some face, that's all."
After finishing speaking, Yue Ruhong immediately said:
"Okay, the matter has been decided, then let's rest, and we will go back to Liu Tingfeng tomorrow."
Early the next morning, Yue Ruhong readily agreed to Liu Tingfeng's conditions, and was willing to cooperate with the army of Xiyu Kingdom to jointly attack Qu Yunyang's demon army.
When the goal was achieved, Liu Tingfeng and Xiao Bailong did not stay long, and after discussing the specific plan of action, the two hurriedly returned to Hongchang City that day.
Five days later, the two quietly returned to Hongchang City, at this time, Hongchang City, in Nanbuyi, the four people had basically straightened out the work they had taken over, not only completely controlled Hongchang City, but even some surrounding cities also arranged their own people in the rectification.
After receiving the news that the Beiyue Kingdom had been attached, several people seemed very happy, and the Tiger King said excitedly:
"This time, the Beiyue Kingdom is fighting with us inside and out, and the Demon Realm army has nowhere to escape!"
Wei Wuji was more concerned about the issue of combat effectiveness, so he asked directly:
"How many troops does the Northern Moon Kingdom have now?"
Liu Tingfeng replied with a smile:
"The total number of people fleeing to Xue'an Forest in the Northern Moon Country is more than 30 million, including 20 million troops, but over there, their lives are extremely difficult, and many people have died in the past two years, and if they don't come out again, their lives will become even more difficult."
"Yue Ruhong promised to send an army of 10 million to cooperate with us, but they are short of supplies and need us to provide food and grass, so we must open a passage as soon as possible to support them at any time, and then consider gradually annihilating the army of the Demon Realm."
The Tiger King volunteered to fight:
"The last general is willing to lead the army to open this passage!"
Liu Tingfeng looked at the Tiger King, thought for a while, and then said slowly:
"This passage is not so easy to open, Qu Yunyang only had nine million troops when he retreated, but this piece of the city is his territory, each city has a defender, plus the recruits he temporarily recruited, it is estimated that the total strength can reach about fifteen million."
"And they have Beining Pass as a barrier, even if they break through Beining Pass, every city behind them has a wall or moat, it is not easy to break through!"
