The Path Toward Heaven

The death of General Pei directly changed the situation in the world.

Qin Guotieqi successively defeated several defenses of the Chu army, and soon passed Baihe County, the capital was in sight.

The reason why the army advanced so smoothly is that there is another important reason besides the fact that the Qin army is too strong and the Chu army has insufficient combat power.

——Qin Jun ’s vanguard is the army of King Jing. They knew too much about Chu and they were full of hatred towards the court.

Under the silent attack of Zhao Guo, Xi Daying also failed to persevere for a long time. The elite battle once lost its core, and the speed of collapse was faster than everyone ’s imagination, even He Zhan and Zhao Guo. When the remnant army fled and evacuated, there was even a white streamer hanging when General Pei died.

Whether going from Baihe County or Xidaying to the capital city of Chu, it is all plain, fertile land, but there is no basis for danger.

The battle ahead continued to pass back to the capital, and the air was filled with a tense and desperate atmosphere.

The people stood on the street and looked at the notice, their expressions numb and blank.The officials in Chaotang and the ministries flickered, not knowing where to look.The scholars at the academy no longer had those feelings, and looked at the distance with their books in distraction, not knowing what they were thinking.

Instead, the business of the Qinglou became very good. Every night, the buildings on the banks of the river and lake were brightly lit and full.

On the occasion of this nation's survival, the grief and despair are present, so we have to sing songs every night, only to be drunk and dream of death, which seems to be something understandable to the Chu people.

The blue bird flew through the night sky of the capital, overlooking these bizarre pictures and human beings, and fell in the deepest part of the palace.

There were no lights in the hall, it was very dark, and you could clearly see the lights outside the palace falling into the night sky.

Jade Bird walked to the end of the wide couch, looked at Jing Jiu's eyes and said, "You have no time."

Jing Jiu said aloud without saying anything.

If there are no other countries such as Qin Zhaoqi, Chu people can live well on their own, but they will always be a problem if they are strong against the enemy.

If Bachelor Zhang is still alive, this day may arrive later.

But he died, and even General Pei is now dead.

No one can control such things as life and death, nor can Jing Jiu.

Even in the real world outside Qingtianjian, he can only try to control his own life and death as much as possible, without affecting others.

The Jing family in Chaoge City, such as the Lius in the small mountain village, will die one day.

Jade Bird looked at his eyes quietly, without turning into a little girl.

Soon it will leave again, for the outside practitioners to see the magnificent picture of Qin's army going south.

Jing Jiu was silent for a moment, flicking his fingers, and the oil lamp on the pillar was lit.

A moment later, footsteps came from outside the temple, and the little eunuch knelt on the ground, waiting for instructions.

Jing Jiu said: "Tell people outside the palace that I will attend tomorrow's court meeting."

...

...

Not even the light is bright, the sky is dark, and there are only traces of lights of joy and despair remaining somewhere.

The sound of wheels crushing bluestone slabs rang on the road.Many cars came from Nancheng and gradually gathered on the straight road in front of the Imperial City.

Some cars stopped, and officials raised their curtains to ignore each other, or whispered, speculating on each other's ideas, and more importantly, His Majesty's ideas.

In fact, in the current situation, many officials, including civilian scholars, already have the idea in their hearts, that is, surrender.

Under the attack of Qin Zhao and the Second Kingdom, Chu State could not support it, not to mention that even the last Pingzhi West Camp was gone.The emperor Bai is brutal and abnormal, and the eunuch He is cold and perverted. If Chu really persists and angers these two, I am afraid that there will be a picture of blood flowing into the river. Such tragic events in the massacre may happen.

Now Qin Guo striker is King Jing ’s army, and many of them are Chu people. It is better to surrender to them than directly to foreigners. Jing Wang and his subordinates can never do too extreme.The Qin State even helped the Chu people block Zhao Guoqing on the Xidaying side, if they still wanted to unify the world.

How to see surrender is the only choice of Chu at present, and the sooner the surrender result, the better.

This idea lingered in the hearts of all officials.

But they didn't tell their colleagues or friends, even the closest ones didn't know what they were thinking.Because whoever surrendered first will be the sinner in the history of Chu. No one wants to die with such a reputation-it would be better to die directly in the wine tank of the blue building.

There is also the most important question, what is His Majesty the Emperor?

Negotiation with King Jing is the best choice for Chu, but King Jing must kill His Majesty to avenge his son ...

With all kinds of ideas and speculations about the emperor's mind, the officials walked silently into the palace like a suffocating fish, and arranged them in two rows on the palace.

On the royal chair at the highest point, the man was wearing a bright yellow royal robe, and his black hair was simply tied behind his head with a cloth strap, revealing that beautiful face.

The picture that has not been seen for a long time reminds some ministers of the bloody palace change five years ago, some of them paled because of fear, and some people gave birth to hope, and two blushes appeared on the pale face, such as fast A university clerk who was exhausted by government affairs and wars and did not return home for fifty days.

Jing Jiu's eyes swept across everyone's face.

He saw fear, it was a military officer who was afraid of being ordered, he saw excitement, that was the doctor who was preparing for his imperial expedition, he also saw fear, that was afraid that the bloody story would be repeated again, and it was bad heart. Guy, the thing he sees most is numbness, which is boring after desperation.

The hall was very quiet, and there was no sound until he said, "Imagine the purpose, I am accurate."

The ministers were very surprised, and looked at each other silently, and did not understand the meaning of His Majesty. What is this purpose, what do you want to be accurate?

"You can talk about anything, but don't talk to Cangzhou, let Xianyang come."

After finishing this sentence, Jing Jiu got up from the royal chair and left the hall.

The main hall remained silent, and it wasn't until the bright yellow figure disappeared deep in the main hall that the officials reacted to what they had heard.

Your Majesty ... is ... surrendering?!

The officials were shocked and speechless, and they produced countless complex emotions, looking at each other, not knowing what to do.

Sect Master Zhou sighed, eyes full of pain and guilt.

He felt that he had lived up to the hopes of Zhang Xueshi, and he was sorry for the people of Chu Kingdom. His majesty had fallen into such an embarrassing situation.

He knew clearly why His Majesty held the DPRK meeting and said this to the court officials.

There is no doubt that Chu will lose. Surrender is the best choice, but no courtier dares to make such a decision.

Like the stories in history, everyone knows that when the two countries are at war, the court and the people can surrender, but the emperor cannot surrender ... His Majesty offered to surrender. Mess.

This decision is wise and clear. The question is which emperor would be willing to do so?

Who can think of Mr. Zhou? Ca n’t think of these clever officials from North Korea and China?After a long silence, several cries suddenly sounded in the hall.

Even if there were no officials crying, his eyes were flushed, apologetic, and miserable, although he did not know the truth.

Huo Ran, the leader of Taichang Temple, turned to stare at these useless officials and shouted sharply: "Crying and mourning! Your Majesty is still alive!"

Grandpa Zhang's mother passed away four years ago. He is now an old man with silver hair. His majesty is far superior to that time. He even has his father's legacy.

Under his vigorous drinking, the cries of the temple finally stopped, and the ministers awoke to God, and they all looked towards Zhou Zhoushi.

Academician Zhou's lips twitched slightly, and he squeezed out a hard sentence: "Peace with the Qin people, and all the forbidden troops moved towards the west camp."

Then he stared at the officials with the harshest eyes, said coldly.

"No one is allowed to speak outside, don't tell me anything that can't be concealed, can you conceal it day by day, have you heard it!"

...

...

A Qin State mission secretly entered the capital of Chu State.

According to the requirements of the Chu State, King Jing did not appear, but there were still many old people from Cangzhou in the mission.Some officials in the court gave birth to many ideas, trying to find a relationship with those people, whether in the same year or in the same country, in order to protect themselves, and even hope to get a good position in the future of the new dynasty.

Those old people in Cangzhou used to be officials of the Chu Kingdom, but they were officials selected by Jing Yan Shizi Tong Yan personally. They were in touch with the officials in the court with a smile, only when their eyes fell on the palace. Showing the meaning of coldness and hatred.

No secret mission can conceal everyone, the news gradually spread in Kyoto, and the turmoil began.Zhou Shou, known as Kuan Ren, finally got the courage of Zhang Shou this year, killing the three ministers extremely hard, only to temporarily stabilize the situation.

The so-called peace talks are surrenders. The Chu State has no confidence. The Qin State is struggling step by step. It is difficult to discuss clearly in a short time, but there is one thing that does not need to be discussed. The emperor must abdicate.

There is no two days in the sky.

If the White Emperor wants to become the co-owner of the world, he will naturally not allow Jing Jiu to sit on the throne.

The best ending for Jing Jiu in the future is probably to obtain the title of a county king and be guarded by heavy soldiers. When the people of the Chu Kingdom gradually forget him, they will be slowly poisoned or starved to death, or accidentally fell into the water and die. Like his father.

At this time, a will was suddenly heard in the deep palace, and His Majesty the Emperor wanted to talk to the Qin State Mission in person.

As soon as the purpose came out, many officials and those old people from Cangzhou in Qin's mission gave birth to a lot of shame. I wondered what good conditions do you want to seek at this moment?The bigger house or damask?Or is it a 16-year-old concubine and full house wine?

One morning, several officials from Qin's mission entered the palace and came to the quiet hall.

Jing Jiu waved his hand, beckoning all the eunuch ladies to retreat.

Those Qin officials thought of some rumors, their expressions changed slightly, and immediately thought that even if you killed us all, what would be the use?

At this time, an ordinary Qin State official suddenly said, "You all withdraw first."

The officials of Qin State were a little uneasy, but they dared not object, and withdrew from the palace.

Jing Jiu looked at the Qin State official and said, "I didn't expect you to be here."

The official of Qin State raised his head, lifted Yi Rong, exposed the beautiful and pleasant face, and looked at him with a smile.

"If you don't come this time, I think I might never see you again."

"This is over."

A sound suddenly sounded behind the pillar.

This time it was no longer lazy, but a little bit angry.

Zhuo Rusui came out and looked at Jing Jiu angrily and said, "Since it is her, then pack your bags and go."
