Chapter 1208: Those who hold knives can't say that those who hold pens (Happy New Year!)
"Okay! I'll leave this to you!"
Seeing that Di Renjie took over the first thing, Qin Tiandang even agreed.
How to handle it is up to the other party.
As a king, you don't need to do everything personally, you just need to grasp the overall situation, otherwise you will die from exhaustion.
After fighting for so many years, you are not allowed to enjoy it?
Thank you so much for being exhausted!
"I will not disappoint the king!"
Di Renjie nodded, with more or less excitement on his face.
After staying in the Ministry of Justice for so long, he finally had a chance to show his face.
Logically speaking, the Ministry of Punishment of the Wei Dynasty was responsible for prison and other matters, and it sounds like it had quite a lot of power.
However, arrests in the Royal City are usually handled by the Six Gates, and the Criminal Department cannot handle those who cannot be handled by the Six Gates.
The cities below were only able to catch petty thieves, and those who were serious were handed over to various legions by the county soldiers and sent to the front line as cannon fodder.
To sum up, as the Minister of Punishment, he is quite leisurely.
There is no great merit, but there is no great fault either.
If he didn't have Wu Zetian as his backer, he would be no different from Jia Lu, the Minister of Industry.
(Jia Lu: Are you going to scold me again?)
All right!
Jia Lu can control rivers and is irreplaceable to a certain extent, even better than Di Renjie.
"I think we can agree to Chu's request for help! If Chu really dies, we will be under great pressure!
In addition, I think that an additional elite army can be stationed in Nanyang County!
If the Chu State really dies, we can take the opportunity to seize the territory and make Chu State the Chu State of our great Wei Dynasty."
Zhao Long quickly stood up and put forward his own opinions.
He did not choose the second thing, but chose to worry about the third thing.
The key to the second thing is not the start of the war, but the ownership of the former Xianyang Imperial City.
Li Yuan was the one who took over and proclaimed himself emperor. If he advised Qin Tian to give up the imperial city, wouldn't he be persuading Qin Tian to give up proclaiming himself emperor?
Zhao Long was still a little scared about this!
"I think the state of Chu has not yet reached the point of life and death. Otherwise, why would we, the Great Wei, be the only one to send troops from Jiujiang County?
Wouldn’t it be faster to take the route to Nanyang County?”
Di Renjie unexpectedly spoke at this time, apparently wanting to show off his face.
"I'm afraid the country will be destroyed even faster!"
When Zhao Long saw Di Renjie interrupting, he couldn't help but snarled.
"That's what Lieutenant Zhao said! We, the Wei Dynasty, are the most disciplined people. Is it possible that we can take advantage of this opportunity to swallow up the territory of Nanyang County of Chu State?"
Di Renjie spread his hands, looking harmless.
"..."
Choked by Di Renjie's words, Zhao Long was speechless for a moment.
As expected, the one holding the knife couldn't compete with the one holding the pen. I really wanted to chop the opponent directly.
If you refute Di Renjie yourself, doesn't that mean that the Wei Dynasty doesn't follow the rules?
Although he didn't think Da Wei was very strict about rules, he couldn't say this clearly, could he?
"Okay! Zhao Long will be responsible for supporting the Chu State. They are all the head of the department. What is the point of making noise?"
Seeing the tit-for-tat stance between the two, Qin Tian waved his hand and said without doubt.
If it were Xiang Yu's era, he wouldn't mind continuing to weaken the Chu State, after all, that guy couldn't surrender.
Chu people should have the pride of Chu people!
But now Chu State is in the era of Xiang Long, and this guy may not be as tough as Xiang Yu.
If you knew you were outmatched and raised the white flag and surrendered, you would be embarrassed.
"I accept your order!"
Upon hearing this, Zhao Long bowed and accepted the order, then cast a proud expression towards Di Renjie.
It seems to be saying: No matter how eloquent you are, the king is still on your side.
Di Renjie simply chose to ignore this, as if he felt that Zhao Long's behavior was a bit childish.
"Brother Wang! Regarding the matter of Da Qin, I think Xianyang Imperial City can be given away!"
At this time, Zhuge Liang stood up and said something shocking as soon as he opened his mouth.
After hearing his words, both Di Renjie and Zhao Long cast their gaze over.
When Feng Dao saw this, he also followed the crowd, he was a little expert at fishing!
"Why?"
There was no change in the expression on Qin Tian's face, he just asked these two words in a normal tone.
"In my opinion, the so-called imperial city is no different from other cities, except that it is stronger and can accommodate more people!
In the past, those demons from Taiping Road were able to make Prince Qin Ying escape from the Imperial City of Xianyang in disgrace, so couldn’t we, the Great Wei, do the same?"
Zhuge Liang's tone was filled with confidence in Wei.
"Keep talking!"
A trace of recognition appeared on Qin Tian's face, he nodded and said.
He has no idea of proclaiming himself emperor yet, and the attraction of the imperial city to him is actually not as great as others imagine.
He simply felt that he suffered a loss if he didn't take advantage, and he suffered a big loss if Prince Qin Ziying took advantage of him.
"Of course, we can't take advantage of Prince Qin's son Ying in vain, and use the lives of our officers and men in Wei to sacrifice their lives for the other party!
It would be better for the king to reach an agreement with Prince Ying of Qin, saying that whose army enters Xianyang Imperial City first, Xianyang Imperial City will belong to him.
In this way, the Qin army will definitely move towards Xianyang Imperial City very hard, and we only need to capture the surrounding small cities!"
Zhuge Liang continued to speak.
"Can!"
Qin Tian nodded, and the matter was settled.
Xianyang Imperial City represents more of a symbolic meaning. After all, it is the only imperial city in China today.
The first to enter Xianyang will be the emperor!
