Chapter XXV
They entered the throne room.
Ning Mo's position among the ranks of military officials was considered to be relatively high.
After all, he was the commander of the new army and the four armies. He was a powerful existence, but even so, there were still nearly ten military officials who could rank above him!
Without exception-
They were all Duke level hands!
Of course.
A First Grade Duke.
Other than the old master, there were only four!
None of these military officials who were even more impressive than Ning Mo were young. They all had white beards and were obviously from the older generation.
However, Ning Mo believed in himself.
Before long,
He would be able to become one of the few people at the front of the ranks of military officials!
"The Emperor has arrived!"
Just as Ning Mo was letting his imagination run wild, the eunuch from the Yellow Gate shouted.
Afterward, the Chu Emperor led the old eunuch out of the side hall, walked onto the dragon throne, and casually sat down.
The civil and military officials cupped their hands and bowed.
"Greetings, Emperor!"
There was no kneeling, nor was there any slogan of 'Long live the emperor, long live the emperor.'
He waved his hand casually.
The Chu Emperor said in a clear voice,
"No need to be polite, dear ministers, rise!"
Everyone said in unison,"
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
After everyone split into two sides.
The old eunuch said in a clear voice,"
"If there's anything, then report. If there's nothing, then withdraw."
Just as he finished speaking.
A civil official stepped forward with a board in his hand.
"Your Majesty, I have a report. Three days ago, the Tartar diplomatic mission arrived in the Imperial Capital and was arranged to stay in Hongwen Hall. Your Majesty, please decide how to deal with the Tartar diplomatic mission!”
Hearing this official's words, everyone in the imperial court was stunned.
Ning Mo frowned."
" At this time, the diplomatic mission of the Tartars came…"
He was probably here to bow down and submit in exchange for time to recuperate.
This result…
This was not what Ning Mo wanted to see.
After all, he wanted to take down the Tartar tribe and seal Wolf Juxu!
Very quickly.
The memorial of the Chamberlain of Dependencies was presented.
The Chu Emperor took a glance.
He grinned.
"Bow down and respect my West Chu as a superior country, and also respect me as the Heavenly Khan. At the same time, I also pray for food to help them tide over the winter crisis!”
After reading it.
He casually handed the memorial to the old eunuch beside him.
The Chu Emperor looked at the civil and military officials.
"Come! Tell me, how should we deal with the Tartar diplomatic mission?”
Hearing the Chu Emperor's words.
The officials began to discuss,
"I think that we can negotiate with him and make him hand over the letter of allegiance. It will be passed down to the various countries to show the might of our country!”
"That's not right. Aren't we giving them food by agreeing to their allegiance?”
"Accept my * ss surrender, he was crippled by Marquis Wu An! Wasn't she taking advantage of his weakness to take his life? Exterminate the entire clan!"
"How can this be? Then how many people will we have to kill!"
" According to tradition…"
“……”
It was like the throne room in the market. Everyone had their own opinions and solutions.
However…
There were two general directions. The military officials felt that they should reject the idea and destroy the entire Tartar. The civil officials advocated accepting the surrender and using methods to show the might of the country and accept the submission of the Tartar tribe.
Standing in the ranks of military officers,
Ning Mo calmly watched the civil and military officials quarrel and did not care too much about it. Anyway, no matter how noisy it was, the one who could make the final decision was Emperor Chu.
"Silence!"
After arguing for a while, the old eunuch said in a clear voice.
Very quickly.
The civil and military officials, who were about to perform a full-scale battle, immediately stopped.
The Chu Emperor sat on the dragon throne nonchalantly. His gaze swept across the crowd and finally landed on Ning Mo.
With a smile on his face, he said,
"Marquis Wu An, you defeated the Tartars. Tell me, how do you think we should submit to the Tartars?”
He was called out.
Ning Mo, who had been prepared to watch the show without saying a word, said,
He could only step forward.
"Your Majesty, I think we should refuse to surrender! Outsiders would always be ungrateful wolves! If they could bow down to him today, they would be able to send troops again in the future! Outsiders deserve to be killed!"
He was still planning to seal Wolf Juxu, so how could he advocate accepting the surrender of the Tartars?
As soon as Ning Mo finished speaking,
The Minister of Rites stepped forward.
"Your Majesty! I think that Marquis Wu 'an's words are wrong!"
"Ever since the West Chu Dynasty was established, we have been constantly fighting against the Tartars. We have never been able to completely resolve the disaster of the Tartars. Now that the Tartars want to submit, isn't this a good way to resolve it?”
"If we assimilate them with Confucian etiquette and give them the grace of a king, we will definitely be able to make these foreign races submit to us. From then on, our West Chu will no longer have the trouble of the foreign races and we will not have to consume our West Chu's national strength!”
Ning Mo muttered to himself after hearing the Minister of Rites 'words.
It made sense.
But there was not much reason!
If the alien tribes could really assimilate so easily, then the Central Plains wouldn't have been invaded by the alien tribes all this time.
" The wild ambitions of the alien race."
Ning Mo spoke again,"
"If they could truly assimilate, the Great Tang would have long since resolved the Outsiders 'calamity in the last unified empire!”
"The Great Tang Empire has used such methods as marriage alliances, bestowing year coins, and moving inward. Back then, the Great Tang was also known as the Heavenly Kingdom, and the emperor was also known as the Heavenly Khan? But what would happen to the Great Tang in the future?”
Hearing Ning Mo's words, she said,
The Minister of Rites 'expression did not change.
"Marquis Wu An only knows that the Outsiders must be killed, but he doesn't know that the disaster of the Outsiders cannot be resolved! After so many years of fighting, there were victories and defeats. If this continued, the national treasury would be emptied!”
Swoosh--
He looked at the Minister of Rites with disdain.
Ning Mo said loudly,"
"You guys can't fight the Outsiders, I'll do it! The Tartars that you can't destroy, I'll destroy them!”
"The disaster of the Outsiders can't be resolved? Then you are wrong! As long as they killed all of them until there was not a single Outsider in this world, there would be no need to talk about this disaster! Minister, what do you think?"
Whoosh--
He flicked his long sleeves.
The Minister of Rites glared at him.
"You bastard! Didn't they know that there were tens of millions of Tartars? You can kill them all?"
He glanced at the Minister of Rites.
Ning Mo turned his head in disdain."
"You're an eggless idiot! Don't you know that my West Chu has tens of millions of blades! Killing one is a sin, slaughtering ten thousand is a hero, slaughtering nine million is a hero among heroes! Tens of millions of Tartars? Why can't we kill them all?"
Not to mention killing millions.
Ning Mo alone had hundreds of thousands of human blood in his hands, so when he said that he was going to kill someone, it didn't feel like he was bluffing at all. Instead, it made people feel a murderous aura!
Hiss--
Everyone gasped.
All the civil officials looked at Ning Mo in shock, including the military officials.
They never expected that…
A handsome young man could casually say words that could destroy an entire race.
At this moment…
Everyone felt as if they had gotten to know Ning Mo all over again!
After all, everyone had only heard about Ning Mo's battle report before!
In addition to Ning Mo's handsome appearance, he had the style of a scholarly scholar. He was really too confusing, so many times, people felt that he was not the kind of person who loved blood and murder!
He didn't continue arguing with others.
Ning Mo cupped his hands and bowed towards the Chu Emperor."
"Your Majesty, in the previous battle, although Marquis Jing Ping and I won a great victory, the truth is that nearly three hundred thousand out of the six hundred thousand main Tartar troops have returned to the grasslands! This is an extremely powerful force!"
"If we give them time to recuperate, I'm afraid the next time they invade, it won't be six hundred thousand, but a true army of one million. At that time, it won't be easy to defeat the Tartars.”
Whoosh--
He directly knelt down and requested to fight.
Ning Mo said loudly,"
"In the previous battle, I traveled thousands of miles and destroyed a large amount of the Tartar's rations. This winter, the Tartar tribe will pay a painful price and become even weaker.”
Hearing Ning Mo's words.
The Chu Emperor stroked his white beard.
He smiled and asked,"
"Do you really think so?"
He nodded.
Ning Mo said seriously,"
"Yes, sir!"
Hearing this.
The Chu Emperor laughed loudly.
"Hahaha…Good! It was a good idea to have such an idea, but the start of a war was definitely not as simple as you imagined! Get up and go back to your line!"
Hearing the Chu Emperor's words.
Ning Mo replied,"
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
After saying that.
Ning Mo silently returned to the ranks of the military officials. He was thinking about what he had said just now. Was there something wrong with what he had said? He was also trying to guess what the Chu Emperor was thinking. He couldn't figure it out either!
"Tsk…"
He was secretly speechless.
Ning Mo frowned."
"I'm still too young…I really don't know much about the matters of the Imperial Court.”
To be honest,
This was only Ning Mo's third time attending the court assembly, so he really didn't know much about the court.
But he felt that…
What he said today should have some shortcomings, but there was no big mistake!
Otherwise…
The old master would not sit by and watch him make a mistake without helping him!
At this moment…
Ning Mo was fully aware of his lack of political knowledge!
