Chapter 542

Think for a long time.

"Fight!"

The second prince gritted his teeth, and a fierce look flashed in his eyes, it was already too late to get rid of his relationship with Nan Qing, if that was the case, then go wrong.

"Order."

"At all costs, capture the imperial capital."

"As long as you are enthroned, things will turn around."

"..."

For the current plan, it is better to kill the third prince first, so as to avoid the enemy.

. . .

Dayan Imperial Capital.

Inside the outer hall.

The envoys from Baicheng and Qianzhai, who were drinking tea leisurely a few days ago, could not calm down at all. Nanqing's intervention made the situation in Dayan even more complicated.

Before that, everyone still hoped that Dayan would be broken.

Now, I urgently want it to be consistent with the outside world.

Nanqing's intervention is not in the interests of both sides. Taking Qizhou means that Nanqing's strength is stronger, and more importantly, Nanqing has more than that.

It is necessary to curb the pace of Nanqing's expansion.

. . .

three days later.

The second prince won, and when he found the third prince, he had already committed suicide at home.

However, the second prince was not happy at all.

In just these three days, the army of the vassal king began to attack him, as if he wanted to destroy him, and even sent someone to persuade him to surrender, which was obviously impossible for him to agree.

Thanks to the deterrence of the Forbidden Army and the Guards, there was no call across the board.

Otherwise, the problem will be big.

The death of the third prince means that the emperor is under his control, which greatly increases the ability to resist.

In the past three days, the news of the Nanqing Army kept coming, making people happy and worrying. The joy was that the vassal kings couldn't stop them at all, and ran away in large numbers.

The worry is that the territory occupied by the Nanqing Army is too large.

Moreover, the person sent to contact him has not returned yet.

"Your Highness, most of Yunzhou has been occupied by the Nanqing Army."

"..."

"The deputy commander-in-chief of the Brown State surrendered, and the 40,000 State Army was captured."

"..."

"There was almost no resistance in the towns occupied by the Nanqing Army."

"..."

This is also the thing that left the Second Prince speechless the most. Nanqing's entire behavior was in the name of himself, and the local people did not resist at all, and even welcomed it.

But he himself knew that this was a pit.

No matter what, Nanqing will be the winner, and the thought of Qizhou makes his heart bleed.

With such a large area and such a long coastline, it is one of the largest granaries in Dayan.

It will be difficult to take it back in the future, unless Baicheng and Qianzhai intervene strongly.

But if he takes it back after he ascends the throne, on the basis of ceding the land, the image of a dishonest king will make him feel uncomfortable again.

In short.

Thinking of the future, the second prince felt as if he had eaten something.

depressed!

. . .

At this time, Yuancheng.

The latest big melon arrived, causing a sensation.

Countless people were stunned. Nan Qing just "misunderstood" to occupy Qizhou. Everyone thought that they would return it soon, but they didn't expect the situation in Dayan to deteriorate so quickly.

The second prince was forced to cede the land of a state.

The Nanqing army entered the Great Extension Territory forcefully.

It's a little too good at making things happen.

The situation in Dayan has caused many big households to come here, which has once again exacerbated the rise in housing prices, and Yuancheng has become a little more crowded. Many big households in Nanyu have mixed feelings.

picture!

so similar.

Wasn't that how I was driven here at the beginning?

But for a while, another kind of comfort came to my heart.

For Sarah?

Of course, it was because some people followed their old path. At the beginning of the civil war in Nanyu, a large number of big households came to flee, and the big households in Nanyu were severely teased by Dayan.

Now, big households in Dayan are also facing the same experience.

Um!

I feel like I can have an extra bowl of rice at noon, no, two bowls.

. . .

At this time, envoys from Baicheng and Qianzhai found Ban Xian. They were actually stationed in the city, but they had just received letters from their respective homes.

Hastily came to the Government Affairs Council.

"Lord Ban Xian, how could Nanqing invade the territory of neighboring countries for no reason."

"It's against Western agreements."

"Nanqing's soldiers must be stopped and retreated immediately."

"..."

As soon as they came up, they sent out inquiries and demanded immediate withdrawal.

heard the words.

Ban Xian chuckled and shook his head slightly.

"I want to emphasize that this is not an invasion, it is aid, it is to help Dayan move towards peace and stability, and it is to end the current chaos in Dayan. Please pay attention to the words."

"..."

The mouths of the missionaries twitched.

Depend on!

How shameless.

"The second prince is not the monarch of Dayan, how can he be qualified to make such a decision?" an envoy said.

Ban Xian pretended to be taken aback.

"Didn't the second prince ever be the Crown Prince of Dayan? Among the existing princes, no matter their qualifications or strength, they are the best candidates for the monarch of the Dayan Empire."

"It is inevitable for him to sit on the throne."

"..."

The envoys were all pissed off, and you have the nerve to say such a far-fetched reason.

"Even if you think it is inevitable, it has not been registered after all, the name is not correct, and the words are not right."

"That's right."

"..."

There was a lot of chatter, and the envoys continued to persuade Ban Xian. They didn't know that Ban Xian was pretending to be confused, and they were very reluctant to go up and beat him up, but they didn't dare.

After a while, the sound stopped.

"That makes sense." Ban Xian nodded.

Hearing this, everyone had something in their hearts.

"Well, let's all go back first. Let's discuss it internally and reply to you in a few days. Don't worry, Nan Qing is not unreasonable and will consider it carefully."

"How many days?"

"Three days!"

"OK."

It seems that Ban Xian has 'suddenly awakened', and the envoys are relieved.

Three days is three days. Anyway, the Dayan Empire can survive for a while. After all, it is not paper. As long as Ban Xian retreats, he will leave.

. . .

After people left.

Ban Xian bowed his head and continued with what he was doing.

As the Chief of the Government Affairs Council, there are many things to do in a day, but not too much. The biggest workload is signing, and hundreds of documents need to be signed in a day.

As for the meeting to discuss Dayan?

cut!

Where are you free? It's just perfunctory.

Moreover.

In terms of military operations, a group of people from the Military Affairs Academy are in charge. The most important thing now is to delay. In three days, the front line can advance a long distance.

As for the troops being assembled in Baicheng and Qianzhai?

Ah!

It was already expected, but unless it really broke the face, the two sides dare not confront the Nanqing army head-on in the short term.

As long as you maintain an attitude of 'proactively solving problems' on your side, you can wait for the front line to win.

Thinking of the day when the Quartet will unify in a short time, Ban Xian couldn't help but tremble with excitement, and the speed of signing has inexplicably increased a lot.

. . .

three days later.

"It's okay to withdraw troops, but the military expenses..."

"What?"

"Bring your own military expenses? That's not acceptable. You know that Nanqing is so poor that everything needs to be done..."

"Qizhou must be returned to Nanqing, and there is a ten million taels of gold as compensation... Can't make the decision? Then write a letter to your family and let someone who can make the decision come over."

"..."

The long tug of war begins!

For another three days, the mission was speechless. Ban Xian was determined to knock off a Qizhou and ten million taels of gold. Although it was difficult to accept, it was better than holding back.

So, when Feishu passed it back, it would probably take many days to delay it.

And at this time.

A bad news came.

"The second prince ascends the throne."

In an instant, each of the envoys had big heads, and it was even more difficult to persuade them.

But still bit the bullet and came to the door.

"Without the vassal's approval, this throne is not in compliance with the rules." A young envoy said suddenly.

"..."

Ban Xian looked at the man with a strange expression on his face, "When does the emperor ascend the throne, do you need to consult the opinion of the feudal lord? Did I hear it wrong, or are you out of your mind?"

"you......"

After all, the young man didn't say anything excessive.

Although it is not under Ban Xian's jurisdiction, it is still on his territory after all.
