Chapter 108 Xiao Shuo Persuades Surrender
Liu Ruyan sent someone to send the results of the sect's discussion to Huo Yang.
After reading the letter, Huo Yang came to the other courtyard and said to Yerou: "From a different standpoint, I shouldn't have accepted you here, but Master Uncle is the elder with the highest seniority in Tianyunzong. According to common sense, but there is always his reason, so I hope that you will not do anything to endanger the people of my human race while waiting for him to come back. This is my advice, and it is also the warning of the entire Sky Cloud Sect to you."
"City Master Huo can rest assured, we know that we are under the fence now, and we will never do anything to embarrass you." Yerou promised.
"That's good. If you have any needs, you can tell the servants in the mansion at any time. After all, you are the guests of the master and uncle, so I don't want to neglect you."
"Master Huo has a heart, thank you!"
Regardless of humans or Hades, eyes can't deceive people.
Huo Yang has been the city lord for so many years, so it depends on his ability.
In Yerou's eyes, he didn't see anything suspicious, and he believed in his uncle's vision even more.
Since the old man dared to let these two strong Mingzu stay in Tianwei City, it is enough to show that these two people are not that dangerous.
In this way, he can concentrate on the national war and continue to expand the territory until he completely wins the imperial city of Xuanling Kingdom and completes the great cause of unification.
The Great Hall of the Xuanling Kingdom Imperial Palace.
Xiao Ao, who was sitting on the dragon chair, frowned and looked sad.
Following the practice of the national teacher before, the situation was indeed stabilized for a period of time by distributing money and food to the people.
However, in the past year, Huo Yang's army has been aggressive and captured [-] major cities in the northern region. At present, most of the entire northern part has fallen into Huo Yang's control. If this trend continues, it will take less than three months. , Huo Yang will completely rule the two major regions in the northwest.
By that time, Xuanling Kingdom will probably have no chance of a comeback.
The generals he sent out were either persuaded by Huo Yang to surrender or killed.
Xiao Ao, who had no one around him now, knew that he might become the last king of Xuanling Kingdom.
And as the king of the kingdom, his name will definitely be nailed to the pillar of shame in Xuanling Kingdom.
After the morning court ended, the ministers left the hall.
A masked man came in from outside.
This person is Xiao Shuo, the prince who helped Qin Yu infiltrate Sheng Tianzong.
Why did he, who was handsome at first, turn into an ugly monster with scars all over his face.
It was all because of the evil consequences of his support of Sheng Tianzong at the beginning.
Back then, as the sect elder who helped Sheng Tianzong raise funds, besides applying for part of the funds with Xiao Ao, he often sent people to various places in private to search for people's fat and people's anointing.
Many originally happy families ended up ruined.
Although Xiao Ao knew about these things, in order to reduce the pressure on the treasury, Xiao Ao has always turned a blind eye.
The Shengtian Sect was destroyed, and the suzerain Situ Ce also died, and Xiao Shuo completely lost his support.
Those ordinary people whose families were ruined by him naturally transferred all their resentment to Xiao Shuo who was still alive, so they conspired to burn down the prince's mansion and kill Xiao Shuo.
At that time, he was trapped in the fire and could not escape, so the people took the opportunity to rush into the prince's mansion to kill him.
Fortunately, the troops sent by Xiao Ao arrived in time, so the common people did not succeed.
But he also paid a huge price for this, one of his eyes was gouged out, and his face was completely ruined.
Now whether you are at home or going out, you can only show people with a mask.
Although Xiao Ao has a cruel personality, he never hated this fourth brother.
Without his help back then, the person sitting on this dragon chair today would certainly not be him.
"Fourth brother, why are you here?"
Xiao Shuo didn't have any nonsense, and said bluntly: "I'm here to persuade you to give up the position of monarch."
what?
Xiao Ao stood up from the dragon chair in surprise.
"You asked me to give up the position of monarch? Are you kidding me?"
"I'm not joking. Huo Yang's army is so strong that it almost captured the entire northern region in less than a year. According to this situation, within three years at most, Xuanling Kingdom will be completely defeated by him."
"Even if he conquers the western, northern and southern regions, it doesn't matter. Don't forget that the most elite troops of our Xuanling Kingdom are all in the eastern region. No matter how strong Huo Yang is, he won't be able to capture it easily. east."
"Having said that, have you ever thought about the great people in the world? The longer the war lasts, the longer they will be in dire straits. Huo Yang is deeply loved by the people now. Only we can make concessions. Only then will the world be at peace.”
Xiao Ao said angrily: "Why didn't he Huo Yang make concessions, but let me make concessions, Xiao Shuo, don't think that you can point fingers at me in state affairs because you are kind to me, believe it or not, I will kill you now gone."
Xiao Shuo knelt on both knees and said: "The king wants the minister to die, and the minister has to die. But in order to let the people in the world live a good life, the minister must say these words even if he dies."
"you"
A trace of murderous intent appeared in Xiao Ao's eyes, but it quickly disappeared.
"You go back, go home and take care of your old age, and live in peace for thousands of years. If you don't have my summons in the future, don't come to this palace."
Xiao Shuo wanted to continue persuading, but was "invited" out by Xiao Ao's guards.
At this time, the national teacher walked to Xiao Ao's side again, and whispered in his ear: "Your Majesty, the prince came here to persuade him to surrender. In my opinion, he may have betrayed Xuanling Kingdom."
But Xiao Ao shook his head and said: "No, the fourth brother has always been loyal to Xuanling Kingdom, and it is absolutely impossible for him to have the heart of betrayal. He came to persuade me, but he just didn't want to see the common people die because of the war. "
"By the way, the national teacher, you came here suddenly, do you have a way to deal with Huo Yang's rebels?"
"Return to Your Majesty, that's right!"
The national teacher lay beside Xiao Ao's ear and told him his plan.
After hearing this, Xiao Ao said in shock: "How can this be possible? Our Xuanling Kingdom established rules with various sects at the beginning of its establishment. In the national war, no monks can participate."
"It's true to say that, but wasn't Huo Yang a disciple of Tianyunzong? Although he left the sect many years ago, where did his cultivation come from? They broke first Rules, what we do is just to imitate, even if those sects know about it in the future, we have every reason to explain it."
Xiao Ao carefully considered the suggestion of the national teacher, this idea is indeed conducive to Xuanling Kingdom's recovery of the territory.
But once monks participate in the national war, more casualties will inevitably be caused.
By that time, Xuanling Kingdom, which is already unpopular with the people, may completely become a target of public criticism.
