Chapter 195 National Fortune and Devil(1/2)
The little princess' panic-looking look was not without effect. It was probably just the instinct of seeking help when she was helpless. However, at this moment, the three people wearing court uniforms were dominated by a passion beyond imagination.
"General, I have something to say."
"Prime Minister Wenren, what do you want to say? Do you think you can make a decision on behalf of His Highness the Princess? If what you say cannot satisfy me, those guys before you are the ones... Anyway, that's what it means."
The general did not say the complete idiom, and he did not feel embarrassed at all. He was originally a butcher, and he praised him for his uneducated words. Even after becoming a general, he had countless scholars who taught him as his teacher, but he did not learn anything. Instead, those scholars were often stripped of clothes and threw them on the streets, and were polite and swept the floor.
However, there is no shortage of stubborn people in this country. After the butcher general committed such behavior, the general originally thought that the scholars would not provoke him again, so he just butcher. He was a general to do whatever he wanted, not to let himself be educated by a group of verbal guys.
However, isn’t it just stripping the clothes? It’s very simple. Find someone to block the streets of the General’s Mansion, so that the idle people will not wait for the passage. Then the scholars arrange their entourages to prepare their clothes and wear them after they are thrown out.
In short, the stubborn behavior of scholars did not play a role in educating Zuo Qiu Zhiming, but instead made Zuo Qiu Zhiming very dislike these scholars, especially those officials who were appreciated by their knowledge, that is, civil officials. Just now, most of the civil officials in the court called him a treacherous, not a son of man, and plotted against him, but now, they can't say it.
"General, I'll just talk straight. These two people cannot be killed. You can just find two scapegoats."
Wenren Guoan became the prime minister less than half an hour ago, and an hour ago, his first five officials were still alive.
"Are you despising the imperial power?"
Among the people present, the one who despises the imperial power the most was the butcher General Zuo Qiu Zhiming. However, Zuo Qiu Zhiming has now regarded himself as the emperor of the next dynasty. Wenren Guoan offended him, which means despising the imperial power.
"I dare not, but I need to protect the princess to the extreme west. There are still many people in the army who support the royal family. If we don't want the royal family to take this opportunity to obtain assistance outside the imperial capital and destroy the current good situation, we still need some planning."
There is no doubt that Wenren Guoan is loyal to the royal family, but this does not prevent him from "planning" the general... In fact, if the army is really allowed to escort the little princess, then all the princes can "survey" the little princes' way forward, and the little princes are young and easily controlled. Once the princes know where the little princes are, they may have heroes who dare to obey the emperor to command the princes.
If this happens, the royal family really has no room for a turnaround.
"Oh? Let's hear it."
Zuo Qiu Zhiming did not doubt Wenren's purpose. In his opinion, after killing so many people, these guys have surrendered to him. Simply put, they have no brains. You can't expect a fool who doesn't know what kind of achievements he has and then becomes a general to see other people's plans clearly.
"These two are demons. We ask the demons to escort His Highness the Princess. After the government is stable, you can still attack the royal family with the demons that still lurk in the royal family. Then we will blame some natural disasters on the demons, and the royal family's prestige among the people will disappear."
“…”
After hearing Wen Ren's words, the general played with his beard. What was he saying? Why didn't he understand? However, it seemed that he could make the royal family even worse, and he had no power to resist him. So,
"Then do this, have you found a city for the exile?"
"Report to the general, I believe that the originally determined city is not suitable for the current situation."
Wenren Anguo saw hope in the little princess. Perhaps this was just his own hope, but even if the little princess was not capable, the little princess knew when to talk nonsense and when to ask for help from others. With this, people with the ideal of supporting Jin will devote themselves to the little princess.
Where did the little princess be sent to? The original city was Oma, an island city hanging overseas. This is the choice of other people who want to be loyal to the royal family. Although it is an island, it has enough farmland to stay away from the war, so that the little princess, the last blood descendant of the royal family, can spend her life safely.
Those people were still loyal to the royal family, but they believed that the royal family was no longer saved and that the dynasty would be changed soon. The princes from all over the country were waiting for that day. It would definitely not be a good ending for the little princess to fall into the hands of the princes. It is everything they can do to find a safe paradise for the little princess.
"Then which city do you think is better?"
The general also felt that the island was not good, so far away. If he stabilized the situation one day, suppressed all the princes, and then wanted to kill the chicken to scare the monkey, he would not be able to find the chicken? The strategist once said that those princes could not kill randomly, but could only conquer them, so this chicken could only be wronged by the royal family of the "former dynasty".
"City of the Sun."
"There is already a ruin, what are you thinking? Could you let others see how I bully the little girl?"
The general was furious. Of course he knew where the City of Sun was. It was the first capital of the huge Jin State. After the death of the founding emperor Sima Zhongda, the most trusted person the emperor had insulted injustice.
Ge Kongming, this despicable villain, gathered the power of seven stars on the Giant God Peak and destroyed the capital. The majesty of imperial power was smashed into the dust that day.
"In any case, it was the original capital of Jin State, and it was the destination of faith in the hearts of many people. Once the royal family brings the demons to the destination of faith, no matter how much reputation the royal family still has among the people, it will disappear."
Wenren Anguo was like trying to clear the obstacles to the royal family for the powerful generals, and he was the lackey of General Zuo Qiu Zhiming.
However, the other two ministers belonging to the royal family were originally indifferent to the current situation, but suddenly they looked at each other, and took a step forward.
"I'm going to discuss it."
"this……"
Among the ministers who should belong to the general's camp, there are a few who seem to have different opinions, but before they can speak, there is a way that you dare to do it if you dare to speak nonsense, and you stare at them.
"I'm going to discuss it."
"... Then let's do it, the descendants of the royal family who were bewitched by the demons and caused the people of the world to live in poverty and sent them to the former site of the Sun City, allowing them to build a new city."
The general was in a good mood, and the ministers of the two sides reached an agreement on their opinions. You should know that in the past, both sides were like enemies. If you bite me and I bite you, now the opinions can be reached. Wouldn't it mean that the ministers on both sides are already loyal to him?
Sure enough, he was the savior of destiny, and he wanted to open up a new dynasty like the founding emperor Sima Zhongda.
...
"Your Highness, I can only send you here."
Wenren Anguo sent Vallad, Anne and the little princess abroad for ten miles before he planned to say goodbye.
"Prime Minister, are they really demons?"
The little princess was a little uneasy, but she came to this place well and asked because there were only five people here.
"It's not necessarily a demon, but some strength can protect your highness."
Zhang Mingxuan didn't see Valiad's strength, but he was still calm when he put the sword across his neck. It can be imagined that his strength will not be weak.
"No, General Zhang, these two are real demons."
Wenren Anguo choked Zhang Mingxuan with just one word. Zhang Mingxuan originally planned to threaten Vallad (of course Anne was ignored). If she could not protect the little princess, she would take Vallad's life. But, do you think this is a real demon?
"Mr. Wenren seems to have some insights."
Valliard did not say much in the court, because what was going to happen next had a great impact. Of course, the most important thing was that the general had no idea of killing him and Anne, and Valliard could take this opportunity to get close to the last royal family of this country.
"All humans will be covered by national destiny. Even those who betray their motherland are no exception, because they have been associated with their own national destiny since their birth. National destiny is the god we sacrifice. Those who are not covered by national destiny are demons. You two have no national destiny."
Is there anyone in this world who has no country at birth? It is impossible. Even if there is only one ethnic group, even if this ethnic group has not established its own country, as long as it is a member of this ethnic group, it will be shrouded in the "national destiny" or ethnic fortune of that ethnic group.
This is true for everyone. Therefore, what else can these two people in front of you who have no national fortune besides the devil? But even demons can appear, so can something even more outrageous?
"So, why are you sure that we two demons will help your princess?"
Vallad did not deny his identity. Although if he was not shrouded by the will of the people, that is, his national destiny would be a demon, then Vallad and Anne would undoubtedly be a demon, because neither of them belongs to this world line. If they do not have their own country in this world line, how could they be shrouded by his national destiny?
"Because you are here, the arrival of the demon will not be aimless. You have not killed all directions in the court, nor have you taken the opportunity to destroy the capital. Then, the only one who can attract you is our Princess. I don't believe you, but I don't believe in those nobles. Please take good care of His Royal Highness for me."
The court wizards were frightened to death when they peeked at Vallad, which really scared the ministers in the court. Although they were literati, could literati be wizards? To put it bluntly, the most powerful group of literati, who called wind, rain, and drove away thunder and lightning, were much better than those wizards.
So after discovering that Vallad and Anne had no national fortune, Wenren Anguo was confused. The demon that only existed in the legend actually appeared.
"What benefits can you give us? I don't hide it from you. Our purpose is indeed related to this little girl, but why do we achieve our goal?"
Valiad is trying his best to create the image of a demon. Cunning and changeable, and treacherous and impermanent are the standard image of a demon. So, is the purpose of a demon really worth the demon trying his best to achieve? Perhaps the purpose that the demon wants to achieve is very unusual and important in the eyes of mortals, but in the eyes of a demon, he just goes out to eat noodles, and then finds that the dumplings are also good on the way, and then walks into a Sichuan restaurant.
What Valiad had to do was to make Wenren Anguo believe in his identity more. If he really agreed with him in one mouthful, Wenren Anguo might not be assured to let him protect this little princess. But if Valiad asked for benefits, it means that in Valiad's eyes, there are many substitutes like a bowl of fried noodles.
"Gold, reputation, life, jewelry, whatever it is, as long as it is what you need, I and them will satisfy you, at all costs."
Wenren An Guo’s courage at this moment is not like a literati at all, but more like a long-time general on the battlefield.
"I want...nationality, my sister and I want to become Jin, do you have no objection?"
After knowing that the special power of this world is a special will called "national destiny", what Vallad thought was not how to fight against this will, but how to be protected by this will. This is the will of the people, and it is a true will that only exists instinctively. If he does not join a country, those favored by national destiny will inevitably have a strong will attack when attacking him.
"Nationality alone is not enough. We need the status of aristocrats, how about it?"
Annie spoke while Wenren Anguo was hesitating. She was as smart as she guessed that Valiad was constructing the identity of the demon. However, just a nationality, a smart enough person might think that nationality is very difficult for the demon and was unwilling to give it out easily, but with the identity of a nobleman, it would be different.
"Yes. Your Highness will leave it to you."
As soon as he finished speaking, Wenren An Guo suddenly raised his hand, and the team of soldiers who were staying not far away were wiped out by the sudden rain of swords.
"Prime Minister, what are you doing?"
Although the team of soldiers brought by Zhang Mingxuan was not loyal to him, they were also his colleagues. In name, they were his subordinates, but they were now arranged by Wenren Anguo to clean up the manpower.
"Come on, give me a sword and take a ruthless move."
Wenren An Guo did not explain and put Zhang Mingxuan's hand on his sword toughly.
“…Is it necessary?”
Zhang Mingxuan didn't know what Wenren An Guo was planning, but he was the few capable literati loyal to the royal family, not to mention that he is still the prime minister of Jin State, so how could he do it?
"Actually you don't have to do this."
Vallad saw a glimpse of clue. If his return did not satisfy the literati, perhaps Jian Yu's targets would be him and Anne, the demon? After all, he is the legendary creature. No one has seen it before, so no one knows whether he can kill the other party, but this does not mean that no one dares to try.
"must."
Wenren Anguo smiled at Valiad, then looked at Zhang Mingxuan with a serious expression and gave an order.
"Occured."
Zhang Mingxuan showed no mercy and slashed the wound with a sword. He heard that the wound was cut from An Guo's left shoulder to his lower abdomen, and blood continued to flow.
"That's good. The thief Zhang Mingxuan was bewitched by the demon. When I led the team back to the capital, he killed the soldiers in the team and followed the descendants of the royal family."
Wenren Anguo opened his mouth and put a hat on Zhang Mingxuan, but Zhang Mingxuan was not angry, but instead knelt on one knee on the ground.
"Thank you Prime Minister to fulfill it!"
Zhang Mingxuan now understands what Wenren Anguo means. These two demons can protect His Royal Highness, but there are others who need to protect the princess. Zhang Mingxuan is the best choice at present.
Moreover, the news that Wenren Anguo would report to him that Zhang Mingxuan was bewitched by the demon. In this way, Zuoqiu butcher had no excuse to attack the Zhang family. Instead, he had to boast about bringing back Zhang Mingxuan, who was bewitched by the demon. After all, he asked Zhang Mingxuan to send away the little princess.
At first, the meaning was probably to disgust Zhang Mingxuan, who was struggling to resist during his coup, and to let Zhang Mingxuan watch the princess he wanted to protect disappear into the West little by little in front of him. This intention was something that everyone could see was that there were two royal ministers in the court now. Those two ministers understood Wen Ren's intentions and would definitely let the general take the blame on him.
