Aspirations for Nation and Beauty Chapter 7: Dingding Section 30 Tree Falling Hozen Scatter (1)
The unscrupulous appointment of the administrative officials of the Jiangnan and Wuhu regions by the Protectorate of the Great Capital of Western Xinjiang has in fact announced the end of the power of the central government of the Tanghe Empire. After exercising power, the situation in the empire also forced him to exceed his authority in advance. If he wanted to bring the empire back on the track of normal operation and restore the local economy earlier, he would have to abandon those moral principles in many cases. Hypocrisy, since it has been determined to do it, there is no need to hide it.
The appointment of the administrative officials of the Wuhu and Jiangnan regions by the Protectorate of the Great Capital of Western Xinjiang also stirred up infinite disturbances in the imperial capital. The central government of the empire is targeting several fallen kings, and even several legions such as the city guards in the central government of the empire are called chaotic troops. But the situation is a bit different now. The appointment of administrative officials in the five lakes in the south of the Yangtze River, which belonged to the absolute core area of the empire, is undoubtedly an open disregard for the power of the imperial center, which means that the imperial center's control over the empire's territories has officially come to an end. .
Once the flood gates are opened, no one can stop it. The news about Qin Wang Li Wufeng proclaiming himself emperor in Hanzhong quickly spread in the imperial capital. Kai Bian indicates that Li Wufeng, king of Qin, officially established a new dynasty is no longer a fantasy, but a real possibility.
Except for a small number of ultra-conservative nobles in the imperial capital who are still cursing Li Wufeng as a rebel every day, more people are already thinking about their next steps, and even the major media in the imperial capital have changed their minds. When the wind blows, no longer talk about the whereabouts of the empire. Instead, they talked about the national interests and national trends of the Tanghe nation. Such a change also made the people of the imperial capital clearly feel that the empire may really change this time.
Although the First Division of the Imperial First Legion still firmly controlled the north gate of the imperial capital, the city guards who stayed under the imperial capital were not able to enter the city through the north gate after being ordered by Ma Yuanxiang to prohibit them from entering the city. I don't know if he was worried that the imperial guards under Ma Yuanqian's control would turn against him. Tie Longping also politely declined Yusuf's request to enter the city through the north gate, but only asked his city guards to station outside the north gate. The situation in the imperial capital is still a little chaotic. The emperor Situ Yuan has discussed with some ministers in the court many times about his future, and the ministers in the imperial court are not sure what to do now. In fact, the entire empire only has An imperial capital city and the four prefectures of Yanyun County are not under the control of Xijiang. It does not make much sense for such an emperor to continue to be an emperor. Situ Yuan is not a fool. He hopes to end all this with a decent way to step down , but Xijiang has never responded and Situtai's firm opposition made him hesitant.
The two people who were sitting withered just sat cross-legged in their positions, facing each other silently. Situ Yuan, dressed in ordinary clothes, picked up his teacup impatiently and took a sip, then put it down heavily again, he really didn't want to procrastinate like this. But seeing the other party's indifferent and calm face, he felt that he didn't know where to start. It's just that sitting like this is difficult to solve the problem even if it lasts for three days and three nights. Situ Yuan doesn't think there is any value or significance in sitting like this.
"Thirteen sisters, do you think there is much point in our stalemate like this? Can't we find a more appropriate solution?" Maybe I think that if I don't open my mouth, this girl can probably sit still. Going down, Situ Yuan finally couldn't help but opened his mouth and opened his special visit this time to his sister who still has considerable influence among the nobles of the imperial capital.
"Seventh Brother. Then what do you want to do? Do you want to surrender to Li Wufeng, or take the initiative to give way? Do you want the Situ Dynasty and the Tanghe Empire to end on you like this?" Situ Yushuang, the elder brother who has no bones, really doesn't understand why the generation of Situ family is full of these weak bones and wimps. Situ Biao, Situ Lang, Situ Jun, Situ Yuan, and that elder brother Situ Tai who is ambitious and talented.
Just like this, she watched piece by piece of land of the empire fall into Li Wufeng's hands, and watched the public's attitude change little by little, even the attitudes of those nobles and gentry who were most loyal to the Situ dynasty began to change. Ambiguous and evasive, is this the irreversible trend of history? Situ Yushuang's beautiful Danfeng eyes flashed a touch of helpless melancholy and confusion, wondering if it was a mistake to let Seventeenth Sister replace herself and Li Wufeng. If I take on the role of Seventeenth Sister, will it help the empire? This question has also turned in Situ Wangshuang's mind many times, but until now she has not made a decision, and no one can predict what did not happen, but Situ Yushuang believes that if she replaces Situ Yutang, she will definitely be better than her. That seemingly intelligent younger sister did even better. She completely failed her father's entrustment at that time. Sometimes Situ Yushuang wondered if she had forgotten the blood flowing in her body, and devoted herself wholeheartedly to Li Wufeng's embrace, even Still dreaming of Li Wufeng's imperial concubine?
"Sister Thirteen, I can understand your feelings, but look at the current situation, brother's army has completely collapsed. The army is simply unable to defend Yanyun, and the sixth brother also left the field. Li Wufeng took over his army and territory. The eldest brother thought that the Puer people and Dorton people aided by Austria had already issued a statement that they would no longer intervene in the internal affairs of our empire. , do you still think that there is still room for improvement?"
Sighed helplessly, Situ Yuan didn't know why his sister was so persistent, she must fight to the death with Li Wufeng, the problem is that she doesn't have the capital to fight to the death with Li Wufeng at all, could it be that she Do you really think that Ma Yuanxiang and Yusuf will be loyal to the Situ Dynasty to the end? It's not that Situ Yuan doesn't believe in the two, but that he understands human nature too well. This kind of confrontation with no chance of winning is tantamount to seeking the path of destruction. Ants are greedy for life, let alone humans? As long as there is a way of life, no one is willing to choose death. If you are like this, how can you ask those outsiders? The sixth brother has already taken a step ahead. It seems that Li Wufeng did not make things difficult for him. He was able to come to the imperial capital safely. Situ Yuan really admires Li Wufeng's generosity and courage. On this point, Situ Yuan believes that no one can With the courage of Li Wufeng.
"Situ Yuan, don't tell me you are so greedy for life and afraid of death, so eager to enjoy a comfortable life, where is the blood of the Situ family? Even if our Situ Dynasty reaches the last step, can't you behave better? A little bit? Act a little more nostalgic? Do you want history to record you in the history books like this?"
Situ Yushuang could no longer find the right words to criticize her elder brother. She also knew that her elder brother was not a wise and decisive master, otherwise she wouldn't have come to where she is today, but The behavior of these men from the Situ family is really disappointing. Several older generation uncles have already come to the door to inquire about it, clearly wanting to find out their own attitude. Situ Mingxiang, the scum of the Situ family She actually wants to take the lead in inviting Li Wufeng to Beijing to preside over the overall situation. She can't understand where their blood is at all?
"Presumptuous! Yushuang, what are you talking about?! I have heard that you have committed crimes against several clan uncles today. I still don't believe it. Anyway, the clan uncle is always your elder How can you insult the elders with rude words?" Situ Yuan finally got angry, maybe he still wanted to show some majesty in front of this thirteenth sister, his attitude became more serious: "You are only one person, but we Situ There are still several hundred members of the family in the imperial capital. If you don’t think about yourself, you should also think about the many people in our Situ family! None of us want to see our Situ family get to this point. ~IndoMTL.com~ But now that we have come to this point, we should have the courage to face the reality, the kind of unwillingness to admit the reality, blindly messing around is a sign of cowardice! Don’t think that your tough attitude is a sign of bravery, The solution we want to find is to be greedy for life and fear death. Is it also a rational expression to use a pebble to hit a rock? Let me tell you, that is stupidity, not bravery!"
I didn't expect my elder brother to explode suddenly at this time, and his remarks sounded decent. If someone else said it, maybe Situ Yushuang would calm down and think about it, but once Seeing Situ Yuan's performance, Situ Yushuang felt even more contemptuous: "Really? I can't tell that Brother Seven is really wise. The younger sister is indeed a bit stupid, but the younger sister knows that she is willing to sacrifice for our Situ family. Everything, but look at your performance at the beginning, if it wasn't for your power struggle and conspiracy, how could you let Li Wufeng take advantage of the fire? You still have the nerve to teach my little sister plausibly, Situ Yuan, don't you think of yourself too much? ?”
Situ Yuan turned blue with anger from some sharp confrontations, but he couldn't get out, but he knew that his sister was determined to resist to the end, although he didn't think her resistance would be of any use, But there is one less wise man in the imperial capital who can stand on the side of the Situ family and make suggestions for himself to find a suitable way to solve this matter decently.
