Chapter 118 How about compared with the previous emperor?

Compared with the arrogance of sand filling, Sha Lie is now very humble to Gongsun Nan. At the beginning, Shaming couldn't bend his knees slightly, but Shalie knelt down respectfully and asked him to get up with Gongsun Nan's permission. This is also an important reason why Gongsun Nan acquiesced that Sha Lie took charge of the shamanism and became a high priest.

In Gongsun Nan's view, an arrogant and talented subordinate who married his daughter to his eldest son is more ambitious. And Sha Lie is just a woman no matter what, he can't turn over any big waves. After the death of sand filling, Gongsun Nan also needed a shaman who could weigh the power of the court and not pose a threat to himself.

Gongsun Nan looked at Sha Lie, who was kneeling in front of him and said, "Get up. Compared with sand filling, you are too constrained and seem to be distracted."

Sha Lie still knelt down and said, "Your Majesty is your king, and Sha Lie is your minister. When the minister sees the emperor, he will kneel down."

Hearing Sha Lie's words, Gongsun Nan felt much more comfortable and said slowly, "In all dynasties, there will always be casualties in power struggles. Fortunately, you have also become a shaman's high priest, and your master can rest under the nine springs. After all, you are still young, and there are some things that need to be experienced. Sha fill has just died. If Sha Yun dies now, it will seem too unreasonable for the royal family.

Sha Lie still said with a respectful face: "Shaman is attached to South Vietnam. Although Sha Lie is a woman, he also knows that state affairs are the most important. For the sake of his own selfish desires, Sha filled colluded with the eldest prince to secretly collude with the Ming king in an attempt to send troops to the south of Chu, causing civil strife in South Vietnam to ascend the throne. It is really a crime that cannot be killed.

"Nonsense, my father is loyal to His Majesty and sent troops to Chu for the sake of South Vietnam." Sha Yun shouted angrily, "My father died so badly that you still won't let him go. My father only has one daughter. Even if I die, I can't let you slander him!"

Sha Lie looked at Sha Yun and said, "We don't have many shamans, and each of them is extremely precious. Shaman has today's status in South Vietnam, which is all given by His Majesty. Even if there is only one shaman left, he will be loyal to His Majesty and the people. The reason why Shalie has lived until now is that he just wants to be loyal to His Majesty and protect the people from the war.

Sha Yun snorted coldly, "You say it well, but in fact, you are extremely selfish in your heart. Although Nanming Town is small, it is a necessary place for South Vietnam and Dachu. If we can occupy Nanming Town, we can have an advantage when facing Dachu. And you have been opposed since the day you became a high priest. After all, isn't it because it was your father's suggestion? You are afraid that our South Vietnam will remember our father's good, so you are so firmly opposed.

The king of An laughed and said, "A woman dares to interfere in national affairs. No wonder South Vietnam would do such a stupid thing that harms others and herself."

Gongsun Nanyou looked at King An and said, "As far as I know, King An has had a very hard time in Chu. As long as King An is willing, I will take the position of prince. But if King An always thinks about Dachu, there is no place for King An to talk here.

King An still said coldly, "I don't pay attention to the throne. It's ridiculous that you don't know that South Vietnam is about to be destroyed by the sand.

Gongsun Nan's eyebrows were locked. Seeing An Wang's calm face, his heart was also a little shaken, but his face was not obvious. He said lightly, "Then tell me, how can you destroy South Vietnam if the sand filling is dead."

Angwang turned his eyes and asked coldly, "Your Majesty, how do you think he is better than the former emperor of South Vietnam?"

Gongsun Nan was stunned, but still coughed and said solemnly, "When the late emperor ascended the throne, the ten rooms in South Vietnam were empty, and the people endured corrupt officials and robbers repeatedly. In the 15th year of the reign of the late emperor, South Vietnam gradually ruled the Qingming Dynasty, and the treasury was full to lay a good foundation for me. I just entrusted the richness of the late emperor. Even if I do nothing, South Vietnam is peaceful, and naturally I am not as good as the emperor.

King An's cold face smiled and said, "Your Majesty is too modest, but your Majesty knows why the former emperor of South Vietnam did not take a step when Emperor Wu first ascended the throne during the chaos of Chu? Even if the emperor of South Vietnam suffered from Mobei for years in order to rest and recuperate, South Vietnam did not do so when the country was rich and the people were strong after many years of cultivation?

Gongsun Nan's face slowly became cold and said coldly, "That's the kindness of the emperor. It's a waste of a great opportunity. What monarch doesn't yearn for the expansion of territory?"

King An suddenly laughed. Gongsun Nan saw that King An was so angry and said, "King An, don't be too rampant! You are standing in the land of South Vietnam!"

"The emperor of South Vietnam is not too kind, but he clearly knows that it is useless to occupy Nanming Town unless South Vietnam swallows up the whole southern land of Dachu." King An looked coldly at Gongsun Nan and said, "Over the years, the national strength of Dachu has become increasingly prosperous under the efforts of several generations of kings and ministers, but South Vietnam has been infighting. Compared with the ancestors of South Vietnam, the national strength has only retreated and has not progressed, right?"

Gongsun Nan's face became more and more ugly. As King An finished speaking, he looked at Gongsun Nan so coldly. Gongsun Nan also looked so straight at King An, but the other people present did not even dare to say anything.

Gongsun Nan finally sighed and said, "There is no regret that Emperor Wu can have a son like you. It's rare for you to have such courage. I'm afraid you're exouraging.

Angwang continued: "Although the distance between South Vietnam and Namming Town is not far away, it is not conducive to the army to walk. It takes a long time to send troops to Nanming Town, and it is also a problem to transport grain and fodder. Even if grain is forcibly collected locally, I'm afraid that when the grain is collected, they will become wronged one by one.

Gongsun Nan couldn't help but say with a few doubts: "How can I say this? Does Da Chu still have the ability to drive out my South Vietnamese soldiers and horses in just a few days? Nanming Town is easy to defend and difficult to attack, and it is also a century-old old city. As long as Nanyue occupies Nanming Town, it is easy to send God.

"When Emperor Wu established the Great Chu, he explained that if the descendants of emperors lost an inch of land, they would be the eternal sinners of the Great Chu Dynasty. No matter how cruel Mobei is, we have never thought about seeking peace. If Nanyue attacked behind when Dachu and Xiling jointly fought against the north, I'm afraid that Dachu's hatred for Nanyue would be even more indifferent.

King An still stared coldly at Gongsun Nan and said, "The south of Chu is close to South Vietnam, and there is plenty of rain. In order to show his friendship with South Vietnam, a dam was built in the upper reaches of the Nanming Town River to ensure that the people of Nanming Town and the surrounding towns of South Vietnam will not be displaced by heavy rain. I'm afraid that Chu would rather destroy the dam and destroy all the villages and towns in the south, and will not let South Vietnam do its wish.

Hearing this, Gongsun Nan couldn't help sweating a little, and his eyes looking at An Wang changed from hesitation and worry at the beginning to fear now. Seeing Gongsun Nan like this, Sha Lie's eyes were full of tears, but he knelt down again and kowtowed heavily with a sincere face.

"Your Majesty only wants to expand his territory, but he forgets the relationship between South Vietnam and Chu for many years. Shafill and the eldest prince knew that sending troops to Nanming Town would bring war to South Vietnam, but they repeatedly encouraged His Majesty to take advantage of the chaos. Now that Sha fills up is dead, Sha Yun does not keep his wife and morality to kill the full grandson. Please make a decision. Shaman is willing to defend South Vietnam and the people to the death.

Princess Yueya also knelt in front of Gongsun Nan and said, "Father, do you know? Sister Hui is dead. After that incident, Hui Niang stayed at the county guard house of Nanming Town. When her eldest brother asked her to steal the military distribution map of Nanming Town, Hui Niang refused. Now the military map of Nanming Town is in the hands of his daughter. If the father wants it, his daughter is willing to offer it with both hands.

Princess Yueya took out a drawing from her arms and took it in front of Gongsun Nan with both hands. Seeing the drawings he had always wanted in front of him, Gongsun Nan had no intention of getting them. He just looked at them quietly. Gongsun Tu, who was beside him, wanted to reach out to get them, but Gongsun Nan picked them up directly and threw them into the brazier.

"Father, do you really want to listen to their rhetoric and don't want to go to Nanming Town? Have you destroyed him with your own hands after planning for so long? Gongsun Tu roared almost angrily.

"It's not that I don't want to, but that I don't have the ability. Even if your grandfather can't do what grandpa can't do, I'm afraid I can't do it. Gongsun Nan's defense suddenly became much more decadent. When he looked at Gongsun Tu, his originally dim eyes became grim again.

"For the sake of your dead mother and your sister, I can still forgive you. If you are a stable person in the future, I can also promise you the wealth of your life. If there is anything else you want, don't blame me for not thinking about father and son.

Gongsun Tu snorted coldly: "How has my father ever had a trace of father-son affection for me? Since I had the queen and Gongsun Zi, I have long been superfluous."

"You..." Gongsun Nan didn't expect that his eldest son, who had been cautious in front of him, dared to contradict himself so much, but he was so angry that he couldn't speak. Seeing Gongsun Nan like this, the queen next to her hurried over and touched his back.

Gongsun Tu seemed to care about nothing and walked out of the door with Gongsun Man in his arms tightly. After years of suffering and the loss of his son with high expectations, Gongsun Tu has already lost his fighting spirit. Looking at the huddled back, he is much older than Gongsun Nan, his father.

Princess Yueya stood beside Gongsun Nan and persuaded, "Father, don't be angry. My brother has been in poor health. Now Man'er has left again. I'm afraid that he is very sad, and please be sure to bypass my brother."

"How can your father be angry? It's a good thing that you can be so tolerant of your eldest brother. I always feel that I owe this son, and I need you to take more care of him in the future. Gongsun Nan said here, but he looked at Sha Yun quietly and said, "Let's lock up Sha Yun first. The eldest prince is not in good health, and he can't leave such a vicious person around him."

Sha Yun suddenly shook away the two people who wanted to catch him, and his eyes almost oozed poison and scolded, "I want you to die!"
