Chapter 164
Chapter 164: Must discuss peace
Gu Du received a reply from the sentry, saying that all counties and counties issued notices that the Emperor Ling would negotiate peace with Zeguo and would send envoys to Zeguo soon. Once the peace talks were successful, the State of Lingguo would open and trade.
This message is like a bolt from the blue. After the two families fought for three hundred years, the Linghuang actually wanted to negotiate peace? Then Jin Lan's revenge is endless!
After fighting for three hundred years, everyone has been exhausted. Lingguo has always been strong and Zeguo is in harmony. Now Lingguo has taken the initiative to make peace. No matter the officials and people, they will hope that Emperor Ze will agree. In this way, there will be no war and can live a stable life.
Dongfang Xia Lan looked at him and said, "Kill the envoys and don't let them negotiate peace."
Gu Du shook his head with a wry smile, stroked her face and said, "All counties have issued notices, but the envoys have not set off. The Emperor Ling just wants our country to report this matter back to the country first. If I kill the envoys, I will be punished by the people of both countries. At that time, people will be separated, and no matter which country, there will be no place for me to stand in my cone."
Dongfang Xialan looked sad, stroked Gu Du's face, and said with tears: "Don't be sad, let's avenge Jin Lan and her son."
Gu Du smiled bitterly. The two countries were in peace and people were looking forward to peace. Who would rebel with him? How could the people from Jueling Sect afford to fight?
Dongfang Buwen walked in, and the two hurriedly separated. Dongfang Buwen asked, "What happened? Why are the soldiers excited?"
Gu Du sighed, Sure enough, people's hearts are happy and no one wants to fight.
Dongfang Xia Lan raised her hand and wiped her tears, saying, "Every county and county Zhang issued a notice, and the Emperor Ling wanted to negotiate peace with Zeguo."
"What?" Dongfang Buwen was stunned and asked for a while: "Party discussion?"
Gu Du said: "Yes, peace talks, and trade needs to be opened and closed."
Dongfang Buwen frowned, and Gu Du said, "Master Priest, I remember you told me that the hatred between the two countries has accumulated for three hundred years, and countless corpses have accumulated on the grassland. The hatred has reached its core. Do you think the emperor and the courtiers are willing to negotiate peace?"
Dongfang Buwen sighed and said, "When I said this to you, I never thought that the Lingguo Council took the initiative to make peace. From what I can remember, the Lingguo has been strong and unchanged. The Zeguo can only fight, but not peace, because the Lingguo does not need peace, but now because of you, the spiritual power has dropped sharply and the national power has declined..."
Dongfang Buwen paused for a moment, sighed, and continued, "You made great contributions to Zeguo. Not only did you turn the tide with your own strength, but you also greatly weakened the military and national strength of Lingguo. But... Jin Lan's revenge will be avenged."
The head of the Military and Political Department of Ze Kingdom, Hua Qingsheng, met Emperor Ze, and handed over the detailed report to Emperor Ze, saying: "Emperor, all counties and counties in Ling Kingdom have posted notices. Ling Emperor wants to negotiate peace with our country and open and trade. I will send envoys to come soon."
Emperor Ze was stunned and turned his face to look at Li Xia, who was also stunned.
Hua Qingsheng lowered his head and said, "I will leave."
Hua Qingsheng left, and Emperor Ze hugged Lixia and said, "I won't negotiate peace with him. This is clearly a delaying strategy. The uncle in Lingguo disturbed him from peace. He came up with this method to curb the uncle. When he recovered his vitality, he would come back to conquer him!"
Li Xia saw tears in her eyes, but shook her head and said, "You are right. This is a delaying strategy. But even if all the officials and workers agree that this is a delaying strategy, it is necessary to discuss peace, because the people do not want to fight and soldiers cannot fight. If you do not respond, you will be in the hearts of the people. At that time, the Emperor Ling will launch a war to the north again. The soldiers will not be determined to fight, and the people will not be determined to fight, and the country will be in danger."
Emperor Ze frowned and said, "Jin Lan has not revenged his great revenge, how can he be willing to do it?"
Li Xia's tears fell and she choked and said, "I can't accept it. He can't interfere with the peace talks, otherwise he will be a rude man in the world and will be criticized by thousands of people and scolded by thousands of people. From then on, there will be no place to stand."
Li Xia pushed Zedi away, raised his hand to wipe away tears, and said, "I want to write a letter to my brother and call him back to the country to discuss matters."
Emperor Ze summoned Dongfang Bin, and Jueling Sect was not part of Ze Kingdom. They were originally here to assist in the war. Now Ling Kingdom is interested in peace, so Emperor Ze must discuss with Jueling Sect.
Dongfang Bin said: "Your Majesty, this matter is of great importance and I cannot make a decision. I want to go back to Mount Tanyuan to report to my father."
Emperor Ze said, "Uncle, go and go back quickly, I'm waiting for your reply."
Dongfang Bin and Dongfang Xia Lan's family letter arrived at Danyuan Mountain. Dongfang Xinghao told Dongfang Bin that since Lingguo took the initiative to seek peace, Zeguo had no reason to refuse, but this was just Linghuang's delayed military strategy. Once Lingguo recovered his vitality, he would inevitably launch an army to fight north.
But in terms of the current situation, even though we know this is a trap, we still have to jump down, because Zeguo is already at the end of a strong crossbow, the country is weak, the people are poor, and the soldiers are scarce. If Zeguo does not agree to peace agreement, the Linghuang will raise troops immediately. At that time, Zeguo will be in a favorable position, and Zeguo may be difficult to protect.
Dongfang Bin said: "The child is worried about Gu Du."
The lady said, "Gu Du is not a reckless man. He will not do anything that is so rude to the world. But he has to let him come back and I want to talk to him in person."
Dongfang Bin said: "Xia Hou Xu 600 miles in a hurry to summon him back to his country. The letter should have arrived at this time."
The lady said, "Then tell him when you go back, your mother wants to see him, let him finish his business and come back."
Dongfang Bin replied: "Yes."
Gu Du received a letter from Lixia, asking Dongfang Xialan to take Gongsun Yan and her children to ride Mo Xuan back, and he and Feng Jiu and Ye Xiaodong rode back.
Feng Jiu asked, "Master, do you really want to withdraw your troops? What if peace talks are a trap?"
Gu Du replied: "It's a trap, and we have to be obsessed with the soldiers and the people first. Without them, how can we fight?"
Feng Jiu frowned and sighed, and said, "Then you have to wait until the alliance is signed before withdrawing?"
Gu Du replied: "It will be withdrawn sooner or later. It is inconvenient for you to take the child with you, so let's withdraw it first."
Feng Jiu sighed again, and Gu Du said, "Okay, I haven't sighed yet, why are you sighing?"
Dongfang Xialan took Gongsun Yan and the child away. Gu Du led Fengjiu and Ye Xiaodong over the mountain, walked around to Zhenbei Pass, and shouted: "Hey! I'll send a notice, I'm going to see General Wu Renxiong!"
The city asked, "Who are you?"
Gu Du replied: "I am Gu Du!"
The crossbow immediately turned on the city wall and pointed it at the three people.
Gu Du shouted: "Don't the Spirit Emperor want to negotiate peace? Do you dare to shoot me?"
After a while, Wu Renxiong ran up to the top of the city, held the chassis and looked at Gu Du gasping for a while before shouting: "Brother! You are so brave, what do you want to do?"
Gu Du replied: "I am hereby order to return to China and borrow three horses from you, and borrow a few pieces of cooked meat and water grain!"
Wu Renxiong was stunned and shouted, "Are you angry with me?"
Gu Du replied: "Don't the Spirit Emperor want to negotiate peace? Will he be stingy with this little thing? If you don't lend it to me, I will go back and continue to make trouble!"
