Chapter 9 Granting Excuses Top

In the morning of this day, the carriages and horses were ready, and the group was ready to return to the Tibetan Valley. Lin Yan's carriages and horses also arrived,

When He Ran was about to get on the horse, the edict suddenly came, and Su Pingjiang summoned him to the palace for discussion,

Zhu Yin was very strange, because he just asked the king for leave yesterday. What's the matter with him?

"I hope it's not Fan Yu's trouble." He Ran whispered and prayed,

Zhu Yin said affirmatively, "No, she knows that she can't be in a hurry for a while, and she won't make trouble now."

He Ran originally wanted everyone to go first, but he caught up, but everyone was worried and insisted on waiting for him to come back and go together.

Entering the palace hall, only Su Pingjiang and Su Ge were here. He Ran thought that Su Ge had sued him again. He didn't expect Su Pingjiang to summon him because of the secret envoy of the emperor. He passed on the edict of the emperor and ordered Yi Guo to send troops to attack Zhao,

The edict of the emperor has long been out of the world. This sudden edict was unexpected by Su Pingjiang, so after letting the messenger go down to rest, he immediately summoned Sugo to discuss with He Ran.

After tling out the reason, He Ran asked, "Does the emperor want to attack the world or have a choice?"

Su Pingjiang said, "I asked, the meaning of the emperor is that the kingdom of Liu is good friends with the State of Zhao for generations, and the king of Liu will not send troops. Xiping's ambition has been shown, and the emperor does not want to take the opportunity to expand his power again, so he hopes that the three countries will be divided into Zhao."

He Ran meditated for a moment, and then smiled,

"Why are you laughing?" Su Pingjiang stared at him and asked,

He Ran said, "I'm Smiling Mozhu, and I'm really thoughtful."

"Mo Zhuo." Su Pingjiang is a little puzzled,

He Ran stood up and asked with a smile, "You don't really think this is the meaning of the emperor, do you?"

Su Pingjiang realized something and said, "You mean that the imperial edict of the emperor was instructed by Mo Yu."

He Ran smiled and said, "It should not be wrong. Kang is the only one who can take the emperor to order the princes. In fact, Mo Yu wanted to urge us to send troops. He expected that we lacked an excuse to tear up the alliance with Zhao, so he specially sent this excuse, so I said that he thought thoughtfully."

Su Pingjiang looked at Su Ge. Su Ge nodded and said, "Most of his analysis is right. That's what it should be."

"Then how do you think you should reply to the messenger?" Su Pingjiang made a gesture to He Ran and said dissatisfiedly, "Don't be in a hurry to go. This is related to our next national policy. We have to discuss it."

He Ran did not mean to sit down at all and said, "What else is negotiable? Even if there is no Mo Zhu's urging, it is inevitable for us to attack Zhao. Now is a once-in-a-lifetime good time. The news from the general said that there are not many Zhao soldiers in hundreds of miles deep. Zhao Ming really has no soldiers to use, so he can only be lucky. I hope a covenant can stumble on our footsteps. Otherwise, he really has no other way. At this moment, he is running to occupy the land, and there is no battle to fight at all.

"You mean you can send troops immediately." Su Pingjiang asked,

He Ran pouted his teeth and said, "The feast is in front of us. The question is that we have eaten enough. I want to allow about half a year to send troops when the newly occupied places are settled down and officials can be transferred. Now the situation is very clear. The State of Kang has contained a large number of Zhao troops. If we don't send troops, we will do it. Once we send troops, we will do it. The soldiers pointed to the plan of Jingqu City. Only in this way can the State of Zhao have to transfer troops to resist. Otherwise, they will fight hard over there, and we will stop occupying some cities leisurely. Kang Guo must turn against us. This is really too unrighteous.

Sugo said, "This is also thanks to your new policy. In just a few years, we have increased from three cities to more than a hundred cities. In the past, no one dares to think about it."

Listening to Sugo's sincere exaggeration of the new policy, He Ran's heart was warm and smiled at him and said, "I'm just talking. The good effect of the new policy depends on my brother and all the adults."

Su Pingjiang was also very happy. The estrangement between the two was a serious illness in his heart. Now it seems that the two can be reconciled. He wanted to strike while the iron was hot, and he said with great interest, "You can go back to the valley tomorrow. The three of us will drink a few bottles later and discuss in detail when it is best to send troops."

He Ran quickly shook his head and said, "No, no, no, we all got on the horse. You called me. I have to go now. They are all waiting for me, not to mention Lin Cainu."

Su Pingjiang sighed and said to Su Ge, "See, I'm the king. I can't keep a minister to drink. What kind of king is this?"

Su Go smiled and said no words,

He Ran smiled and said, "The king treats me like a brother and a brother. I don't see the king. I'm not in a hurry to attack Zhao for a while. After I went back, I thought about it carefully. As for how to reply, I only said that we were tired after a long war, and the soldiers who went to war in a row would have resentment. To tell them the truth, we don't have so many officials available. It's difficult to go deep into the instability after fighting all the way. Anyway, it will take three or five months.

"All right, go quickly." Su Pingjiang waved his hand angrily,

He Ran saluted with a hippie smile and walked out step by step. He turned back before he got to the door. He grinned and said, "I think it's a high-sounding excuse to fight against Zhao by the edict of the emperor, but I'm really embarrassed to see Zhao Min. After all, he has always been affectionate to me. Think about it and see if I can do it again. Find some excuses, or I can resign temporarily.

"Don't think about resigning." Su Pingjiang immediately refused,

He Ran said with a sad face, "Then... then you can make some excuses for me, otherwise I always feel sorry."

After he left, Su Pingjiang sighed with emotion, "He is too affectionate. People with such a position are really not as powerful as him. You can see that in fact, he is a very shameful person, and he is afraid of being sorry for others and doing this to the enemy."

Suge also sighed and said, "The power does not change his nature, and the wealth does not move his heart. He is a person with a true temperament. It is because of this that the king will not have the slightest suspicion of him, and we are also happy to work with him."

"I'm not angry with him." Su Pingjiang raised his eyebrows and asked,

Su Ge's face was so sad and said, "The facts are better than eloquence. A few months ago, I was still dissatisfied with him. I was very touched by the minister. I thought that I was only three cities in the Yi Kingdom at the beginning, and the breath of the Shun Kingdom could make us ashes, but now we can not only protect ourselves, but also have competed for the world. Strength, I have always been worried about whether the country is owned by the king. I was shocked by the destruction. Finally, I understood that our efforts to protect ourselves was the most important thing. This truth is simple. When there were dozens of cities at the beginning, I was confused by victory and interests, and I forgot that we were still just food in the mouth of others. The stupid thing of worm horns fighting for profit is confused. He told me this truth repeatedly, but at that time, I seemed to be fascinated, but I couldn't listen to it. It was in vain that he praised me as a shrewd person. It's really shameful to think about it. He is the most shrewd. His eyes are far beyond the reach of the minister. His heart has always known what to do. There has been no confusion at all. Who belongs to the country? It's important, but it's second-class than self-protecting. Besides, I shouldn't doubt him. In terms of loyalty to the Su family, he is actually stronger than me.

Su Pingjiang breathed a sigh of relief and said happily, "You are really smart in vain. I have understood this truth for a long time, but you only understood that in a fierce battle at the beginning of the founding of the country, I didn't listen to his good policy, so that the only little soldiers and horses lost most of it. To be honest, I was discouraged. I thought that my life was over. I just wanted to save my mind in the last days. I didn't think that I could escape from heaven at all. The fire in front of the Tibetan Sage Valley was like a divine help. While burning away the enemy soldiers, I was also convinced. At that time, I vaguely felt that God sent him to help me change my country, and then I was disabled. The weak soldiers have repeatedly frustrated the hero of the country. This is not what God's help is. The hearts of the army and the hearts of the people are all directed at it. It can be called a single pillar to support the country. If he wants to oppose me, it's just a lot of work. I will cut him off with fear as if he is self-destruction and changing the country. What is especially valuable is that he only values love and righteousness and not greedy for fame. What you just said is wrong. He can't talk to me. What loyalty, it's just affection. Brotherhood and in-laws make me feel more secure than loyalty.

Su Ge nod and smiled, "The king's words are really insightful. It's really good to think about it. He is not loyal but affection. If he is just loyal, he dares not be so arbitrary in front of the king. No wonder he always says that the king is the most clearest. I know today that this is by no means a word of parony. I used to blame the king for being addicted to it. Now it seems that it is wise for the king to do this. It is precisely because he let him let go that he has the current good situation for Yi.

Su Pingjiang's face was full of complaance and said, "I increasingly believe that God sent him to help me. Now you should believe it."

"Anyway, the achievements he has built are unmatched. I firmly believe that he will definitely return to the mountains and forests when Yunei is peaceful. This country will always be a king. This one is enough, and I will no longer be embarrassed."

Su Pingjiang was greatly comforted and praised, "That's right. Then don't hide idle. Come out and govern quickly."

Su Ge was ashamed and said, "I am about to resign. I have recently figured out that since the reform of the official system, a large number of officials have been abolished. In fact, the most important thing to be removed is the minister. He is trying his best to protect me by thinking about the friendship in the past. It's ridiculous thing is that I have repeatedly fought against it. It is not easy for him to allow me now. I now know this feeling. He said that he would no longer have the face to be in the position of Taizai.

Su Pingjiang said earnestly, "You can't resign this official, but don't brush his affection. As you know, my sister-in-law is in charge of most of the government affairs. In order to be able to justly open a government office to reduce fatigue, he would rather set up a Zhongshufu than slightly damage your position of Taizai. To protect your power, he repeatedly stressed to me. Yes, when Shengyi's sister was the Zhongshuling, he told me more than once that when you were willing to govern, the Zhongshu Mansion would immediately return to the Dazai Mansion and tell the truth. He was very moved by your kindness. If you insist on resigning, he will not feel good in his heart. The first thing he does is love. Don't hurt his heart.

Suge's heart rolled, and tears appeared in his eyes. He choked slightly and said, "Thank you for your success with the military division. I'm ashamed to say. After going back, I will immediately study the new policy in order to be effective in the future."

Su Pingjiang smiled and said, "It's long over. Well, it's over. You can stay and drink a few bottles with me. Speaking of him, it's not pleasant not to drink a few bottles." With that, he sighed with resentment, "This man is good at everything, but he is too lustful than friends. I really want to stay with him for a while. I have endless fun with him."
