Chapter 1183
Although it was not pointed out, Ma Yuanchang had already realized the other party's intentions, but he was not ready to submit. He wanted to hear the other party's accurate purpose, "Tiancheng, there is no need to cover up any other things. Just make a direct introduction to the specific requirements. I think whether it is Li Wufeng or you, it is not as implicit as it is."
"Very good, that day's success is clear. His Highness of Qin hopes that the Lord can refuse the city guards to enter the city, because it is difficult for Yusufu's performance to make people believe him. When the situation in the imperial capital changes, I hope that the Imperial Guards can look at what happened in the empire from the height of the entire Tanghe nation, and do not cause big mistakes because of the personal friendship of some people. Simply put, His Highness of Qin's army is about to enter Zhongzhou. I hope that the Imperial Guards can prevent chaos in the imperial capital and avoid war in the imperial capital. This is what His Highness of Qin is most reluctant to see, and it is also what he wants to avoid." Huangfu Tiancheng said lightly, but the content of his words was clear.
"Avoid war? As long as His Highness the King of Qin does not come to attack the imperial capital, wouldn't war be avoided? Why did he have to take this responsibility?" Ma Yuan gently tapped the sandalwood coffee table beside him, and a sarcastic smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
"Sir, this imperial capital is important and important, but if an imperial capital can determine the fate of the entire empire, it is too much of a joke. The fate of the Situ family cannot be preserved because they can occupy the imperial capital. Both I and I should be very clear about this. All this in the imperial capital does not belong to any private or family. This is a civilized treasure of our Tanghe nation. Our Tanghe nation has left too many civilization accumulation and cultural and artistic treasures in this imperial capital. This city is for every Tanghe people.
, all have extraordinary significance, so His Highness the King of Qin does not want to cause harm to everything in this city, and this is the feeling that he should be able to understand. His Highness the King of Qin is just worried that the Situ family will be in a hurry to jump over the wall and do the crazy behavior of the imperial capital, destroying everything that should belong to our entire Tanghe nation. As for the rest, including Tiancheng, we do not think that the Situ family can still bring to the Western Xinjiang now." At the last sentence, Huangfu Tiancheng's tone was no longer pride and confidence, and of course it was also mixed with a toughness.
Ma Yuansheng murang, he could not help but admit that what the other party said was reasonable. Now Situ Tai or the Imperial Central Army were unable to resist the advance of the Western Frontier Army. The south had been pacified, and the Maqi Khan also withdrew his troops from the peninsula area in shame. Li Wufeng's power was increased several times out of thin air. Ma Yuansheng could not see where the Situ family's way out. Although the imperial capital was strong, it had never been defensive operations for so many years. When the situation was over, could the people of the imperial people still accept such a meaningless war? Can he really watch the battle start in the Imperial Capital? As the other party said, every grass, tree, and stone in the Imperial Capital were the crystallization of the civilization of the Tanghe nation over the past two thousand years. As a Tanghe people, who would be willing to destroy all this in the war? The demands made by the other party were not considered excessive.
The room fell into silence again, and Huangfu Tiancheng did not urge the other party. He knew that the other party was still struggling with the last thought at this time. The irreconcilable contradiction between loyalty to the Situ family and being responsible to the Tanghe people seemed to make it difficult for the nostalgic old man to make a choice, but Huangfu Tiancheng was confident that the other party would make a rational choice.
"Tiancheng, maybe what you said makes sense, but I also need to keep my bottom line of being a human being. I once promised to the Thirteenth Princess that I cannot break my own promise. However, as a Tanghe native, of course I will not sit idly by and watch the destruction of our nation's treasures happen. You are right, the emperor should not go through a war, I will do my best to avoid it." Ma Yuansheng ended the conversation with a polite and vague words. He didn't even give Huangfu Tiancheng any chance to persuade him and brought tea to the guests. This made Huangfu Tiancheng feel a little comforted and worried.
The impact of the turbulent situation on the upper class of the imperial capital was not limited to some people with great power, but also caused great trouble to some people who had no power but had considerable influence. Many people did not know where they should go. The fear in their hearts made many people unable to sleep or eat, but the identity halo on them made them dare not express their opinions at will. However, if they did not express their attitude in time, what kind of treatment would their whole family face in the future also made them frightened. Will the story of "The sky is full of the bones of the ministers" be staged again in this city? Who could have predicted it?
"Mingda, you finally come. When is it now? You are still slow. Is it really worth your troubles at the work of Tianhua Palace that you are so worried about?" He glanced at the brothers of the same clan who were walking slowly while walking down the street. The old man in Confucian shirt said angrily.
"The two brothers are here first? What did they make the two brothers so nervous?" Situ Mingda, who stepped into the warm cabinet, looked surprised. He came after receiving the invitation from two brothers of the same clan. He wandered in the sea of books all day long, and he had less contact with the outside world. He did not always pay attention to the changes in the empire situation like his other brothers.
"Hmph, Brother Six, look, our Situ family is probably only Mingda who is so optimistic about his fate. The army is approaching, and the situation in the imperial capital is in danger. He still looks indifferent. Mingda, do you really don't know or be fearless? If you are a brother, you are really convinced by you." The old man in Confucian shirt complained to the man in a green cloth robe sitting next to him, and stared at the old man who had just arrived hatefully.
"Don't calm down, I really don't know what happened. The army that the starling brother mentioned just now said that Li Wufeng's army has entered Zhongzhou?" Although Situ Mingda was addicted to the book sorting work of Tianhua Palace all day long, he was not ignorant of what happened around him. The battle of Yunzhong shocked the world. The only pillar of the Situ family basically lost the capital to confront Li Wufeng again in this battle. The general trend of the world seemed to gradually become clear. Although he was quite sad, he was open-minded by nature and was only a little emotional for two days, and then he became calm afterwards.
"Bah! Mingda, are you praying for Li Wufeng to enter Zhongzhou?" The old man in Confucian shirt spitted on the other side with anger, but then said in frustration: "Although he has not entered Zhongzhou yet, it is probably too soon. Li Wufeng's First Legion of Western Xinjiang heard that he was gathering in Jiujiang, and the Eighth Legion of Western Xinjiang and several Independent Divisions of Western Xinjiang were also active in Yuhang and Huzhou. It seems that he will enter the north from Zhongzhou and the East China Sea in one fell swoop."
As a royal family, no one is not clear about the current situation of the empire. This not only concerns the fate of the entire Situ family, but also concerns the life and death of their own small families. Although the old man in Confucian shirt and Situ Mingda are only brothers of the same clan, the only ones in the Situ family are only those who can be on the table and be valued by the previous emperor. The situation has reached a critical moment. If you don’t think about countermeasures, how many people will be left in the entire Situ family when that day comes?
"Two brothers, Mingda, I have no power or soldiers in my hands. What can I do? Even if Li Wufeng's army put their swords on my neck, I had to admit it. My family has become accustomed to living in this imperial capital. The graves of my ancestors are here. I can't let my family leave everything behind and exile overseas, right? Then let me die here." Although Situ Mingda's words were a little worried, the expression on his face was nothing unusual. He was born optimistic and open-minded and never took the surname Situ to heart, and was very low-key in the court, so he was chosen by Situ Mingyue to take charge of the Tianhua Palace and presided over the engagement ceremony between Li Wufeng and Situ Yutang. In his opinion, at most, it would be better to take off all his burdens at home and be more relaxed and at ease.
"Hmph, Mingda, you think it's easy to think. If Li Wufeng can do the world, then he can still tolerate those of us who have become the remnants of the previous dynasty. Just the bloodline of the Situ family will make us worse than death. Those of his men will not change their ways to make us die before they can be contented. Isn't Li Wufeng afraid that our Situ family will make a comeback?" The old man in Confucian shirt was already thinking about the matter after the relocation of the country. The new dynasty has always had a deep taboo on the remnants of the previous dynasty, especially the children with the blood of the previous dynasty's royal family are even thorns in the eyes of the Xin Dynasty. All those who want to rebel and restore the restoration want to pull up the tiger skin as a banner. It seems much more convenient to borrow the bloodline of the previous dynasty's royal family as a reason than to rise up in emptied it. So no wonder many new dynasty pretended at first, but later they took different methods to eradicate these remnants.
