Chapter 297 The last resort
Chapter 297 The last resort
Seeing Han Xiyuan walking up slowly, Wu Qingzhi kept his mouth shut. He bribed the eunuch to poison Han Xiyuan before, but unfortunately he failed.
It was also because of this reason that Han Xiyuan would not reuse Wu Qingzhi. If he could find conclusive evidence, even if he could not completely recover the Zhijun, Han Xiyuan would cut through the mess and shoot Wu Qingzhi to death. This could be regarded as revenge for the original body.
But because Zhao Gaoyao has not been arrested yet, Han Xiyuan didn't expect that Zhao Gaoyao had already changed into a junior soldier's attire and mixed into Han Xiyuan's army.
This is also because Zhao Gaoyao has been sending out junior soldiers to inquire about the news these days. When he noticed the changes in the city, Zhao Gaoyao thought it was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. With this good opportunity in front of him, he must be trapped to death in Longdu.
And if Han Xiyuan solves the siege of the city, he will inevitably search the city like a carpet, and by that time, Zhao Gaoyao will also be powerless.
He grabbed the junior soldiers he summoned. The uniforms and equipment were almost the same as those summoned by Han Xiyuan. into the army.
According to Zhao Gaoyao's idea, if the siege situation is resolved, Han Xiyuan will definitely go out of the city to attack the city and plunder the land, and then he will be able to live happily ever after.
Moreover, he trusted Han Xiyuan enough to solve the predicament. This was also because he clearly realized that the system he had just acquired was very powerful.
Because he obtained nearly [-] tons of gold from the system check-in in the past two days. He also took out a few pieces from the system warehouse and bit them a few times. It was pure gold.
Zhao Gaoyao himself came from a poor background, and seeing so much gold for the first time in his life, he naturally lamented that it was a gift from the system.
"Prince Ming negotiated with me, and must do our utmost to work together with His Majesty to help the rise of the Han Empire and its prosperity."
Zhang Yuting smoothed things out with a smile, Han Xiyuan smiled without saying a word, walked right in front of the two of them, and walked slowly towards the palace.
"Song Wang is really a timely rain, so I don't know how to thank you for a while. I just hope that from now on, you and I can have fun together."
Wu Qingzhi took pleasure in suffering, pretended to smile, and said these words.
At the banquet in the palace afterwards, Wu Qingzhi didn't dare to move his chopsticks for a long time. He was afraid that Han Xiyuan would come and he would use his method to cure his body and poison himself to death.
Zhang Yuting was also cautious, subconsciously looking for clues from the food in front of him with his fingers.
"You two good ministers don't need to worry. I am the king of a country. I will never poison you here at this moment. Of course, I also understand your grudges. After all, not long ago, I was also poisoned by a villain."
When Han Xiyuan said this, he stared in Wu Qingzhi's direction. Wu Qingzhi's forehead was slightly lowered at this moment, and panic flashed in his eyes, but his body remained motionless, pretending to be calm.
"Furthermore, what I want to do is Zhao Kuangyin who releases military power with a glass of wine, not Zhu Yuanzhang who burns all heroes with a fire."
After Han Xiyuan came to the time and space of the Great Han Empire, he found that all the history of this time and space was only slightly different from the previous Great Jin Empire.
The main turning point was in 1648, when the original Ming Empire came to the end of the empire. After the peasant army revolted and overthrew the Ming Empire, Liu Xuhe, the leader of the peasant army, re-established a feudal dynasty.
He traced his ancestors directly to Liu Bang, the founding emperor of the previous Han Dynasty, and then established the current Han Empire.
The intention of Han Xiyuan's words is very clear, that is, he wants to seize the military power and take all the power back to the central government, which is in his own hands. As for whether Wu Qingzhi and Zhang Yuting in front of him cooperate, that is not a question he should consider.
"Of course, the two of you can also choose on your own, whether to be that Xiao He or that Han Xin. Of course I can award the two good ministers a gold medal for avoiding death. But it's just a chance to live. The two good ministers can choose to be the one for the country and the country. Xiao He, the people, died well."
Now Han Xiyuan can be said to have spoken out completely, because he even said that the two people in front of him were wary of him and wanted to escape, so Han Xiyuan would completely cut off their thoughts.
If they were sensible and handed over the military power obediently, Han Xiyuan could let them live for the rest of their life, if not, then Han Xin would have died tragically.
"Furthermore, the two good ministers are obviously very aware of the current offensive and defensive situation between us. Before entering the city, if you wait for two people, it is considered as a siege. I will be the fish, and you will be the sword. But you also leave it to me. The royal family is a bit thin, forcing me to issue an edict to abdicate. Now, you wait for the fish and I for the sword. Let you wait to hand over the military power, and then live under my nose. I think it should not be an exaggeration. Of course, I am also Ready to cross the river and demolish the bridge. If the warrant you are waiting for cannot mobilize the army, then you have to wrong the two old ministers and go with Cao Bowen. If I want to tie the two of you to the chariot, I don’t believe that your subordinates will be hard-hearted.”
Han Xiyuan directly overturned the table in front of him, the amiable look just now was gone now.
Wu Qingzhi and Zhang Yuting were both frowning at the moment. If Han Xiyuan really acted like that, then they really didn't have the confidence to grasp the next situation.
"Of course, this is a last resort. I still hope that we can have a more harmonious time together. However, my patience is limited. I think that soon, the news that you are imprisoned in the palace will be over. It will be known by all countries. If my guess is correct, the envoys of these countries will still clamor for my responsibility, and hope that I can release you and the other two."
Han Xiyuan saw that the two still had no tendency to speak, and thought that the two of them might still have their final fantasy, and that the great empires might be their last resort.
Therefore, what Han Xiyuan has to do now is to completely shatter the last fantasy of the two of them.
"However, I will never compromise. In the past hundred years, those self-righteous and dirty empires have continued to commit murders on the land of our Han Empire, and their people have acted recklessly on the land brought by our Han Empire. .Even, forcibly occupying the land of our Han Empire and using it as a concession. The concession is the front station for the major empires to inquire about our Han Empire."
The more Han Xiyuan talked, the more excited he was, he kept blaming the two people in front of him.
"And what about the two? They are constantly helping the evildoers, and are willing to be the spokespersons for the great empires to invade our Han Empire and persecute our people. Could it be that these two good ministers are so willing? Seeing their relatives and friends being bullied? I see two good ministers, You also rose from poverty. Now that you are in a high position, why have you forgotten to worry about the country and the people?"
Every word Han Xiyuan said seemed to be judging Wu Qingzhi and Wu Qingzhi, but they remained silent.
They have questioned themselves over the years, and have not attacked their compatriots, but they have agreed to the terms of the major empires, which means that they are oppressing their compatriots invisibly, so they have no reason to argue and try to refute.
"Therefore, the two good ministers are also accomplices. Now, I only give the two good ministers three days to consider whether they choose to hand over the military power and fight with me. Or are they tied to a chariot, reduced to a prisoner, and subjected to all kinds of hardships?" Torture. I also ask the two good ministers to make a choice as soon as possible."
After Han Xiyuan finished speaking, he got up directly and walked out of the palace slowly. Cao Bowen and others also left. Outside the palace, there were guards from the Imperial Forest Army.
"Your Majesty, what should we do with the captured rebels?"
Cao Bowen stepped forward quickly and asked Han Xiyuan.
"For the time being, these people will be the main labor force for the construction of our Great Han Empire in the future. Besides, we will expand the army by a million in a short period of time. Especially the Sakura Empire, which keeps coveting our Great Han Empire, I must beat him down completely."
The construction of the Great Jin Empire in the future will naturally need these fresh troops, so Han Xiyuan has no intention of killing.
"Yes, Your Majesty."
Cao Bowen responded immediately, and then the two left here.
But Wu Qingzhi and Zhang Yuting sat where they were, with helplessness in their eyes. They raised their heads and looked at the map hanging on the wall not far away.
It was a map of the current situation, and the spheres of influence of the major empires were clearly marked on it.
The two of them were dull for nearly an hour before Wu Qingzhi spoke tentatively.
