A million ways to survive in the dungeon
Chapter 324 Three Two Five: Faint King Situ Xing
Above the main hall, the throne is vacant, but hundreds of officials are paying homage, as if Situ Zhou is still alive.
Jin Ge and Situ Xing sat on either side of the throne, one on the left and one on the right.
Early in the morning, Situ Xing issued a royal order requiring all officials to enter the palace immediately unless there were special circumstances.
In the palace, Zheng Qian and Zhao Aotian stood at the head of the officials.
To be honest, not only Zheng Qian, but also Zhao Aotian didn't look good at the moment.
This Situ Xing is too busy. He has only been in Eastern Sichuan for three days. Is this the first time he has called him into the palace?
While asking us to solve the financial problem ourselves, we constantly hinder the work of others.
If it were Situ Zhou, Zheng Qian would have scolded him.
"Everyone, this time I summon you to the palace to discuss a major matter."
Situ Xing didn't waste any time, stood up and walked to the throne: "As you all know, the late king sold 35% of the land in eastern Sichuan twenty years ago.
Now that my king is about to ascend the throne, I want to take back those lands before I ascend the throne. "
A very direct opening statement, without any mincing words.
This also caused the unprepared ministers to gasp.
Zhao Aotian's face suddenly stiffened, and he quickly turned around without caring about any irregularities: "Prince Xing, are you kidding me?"
"Are you kidding me?" Situ Xing walked down the steps and looked at Zhao Aotian coldly: "The loss of the land of the late king is an eternal pain in the history of Eastern Sichuan. This incident also made the late king always be reviled as a fool until his death. king.
As a descendant, the first thing I want to do when I ascend the throne is to avenge the shame of my late king and take back the land that originally belonged to eastern Sichuan. "
"Prince Star, please think twice."
An old minister stepped forward and said hurriedly: "Those lands were sold by the late king as compensation in order to seek foreign aid.
The international situation at that time could be said to be on the verge of breaking out. The warriors of the former king cut off their arms and forced them to retreat to Eagle Valley at the cost of losing part of their territory. It was really forced by the situation and was a last resort.
And at that time, the sixteen countries had no intention of acquiring it, but the former king took the initiative to use their territory as a bargaining chip in exchange for assistance. The sixteen countries felt the courage of the previous king, and later purchased it at a premium. Foreign trade still provides convenience to Eastern Sichuan.
If you want to buy back at this time, the financial resources required are definitely beyond what the current national treasury can bear. "
Indeed, Situ Zhou took the initiative to sell the land at that time, and the Sixteen Kingdoms had no intention of acquiring it.
In order not to fall short of public opinion, the sixteen countries all made acquisitions at a premium.
The Sixteen Kingdoms spent a huge price to purchase the territory. It can be said that they moved the country to help Sichuan East.
Now if you want to get it back, taking inflation into account, you have to pay a premium.
However, Situ Xing's next answer shocked everyone.
"When did I say that I would repurchase it?"
The whole place fell into silence.
The corners of Situ Xing's lips curled up slightly: "Those lands belong to Eastern Sichuan. It is reasonable for the Sixteen Kingdoms to return their lands."
"This is too ridiculous!" Zhao Aotian hurriedly stepped forward and shouted: "Does Prince Xing want the Sixteen Kingdoms to return their territory without compensation?"
Situ Xing looked down from a high position and said, "Is there any problem with this?"
"Of course there is a problem!" Zhao Aotian's voice echoed throughout the palace.
He hurriedly took a step forward and shouted loudly: "They bought our land legitimately and at a premium, but now you ask them to return it for free, which is a bit too overbearing.
Prince Xing, I understand that you hope that the land in eastern Sichuan will be returned to Zhao intact, and I hope so too, but your request will trigger a war. "
"war?"
Situ Xing burst out laughing: "King Zhao Zhan, are you confused? What's wrong with a country maintaining its territorial integrity?"
"The sixteen countries purchased those lands. If they want to get them back, they must properly consider their ideas, or at least communicate with them."
"Communication? Of course we can communicate. I have sent ambassadors to the sixteen countries and ordered them to return their lands within three months."
"you……"
When Zhao Aotian heard this, he was so angry that he was speechless for a moment.
When Zheng Qian heard this, he couldn't help but lower his head and sigh.
It's over, this kid got into trouble.
"Back then, the late king asked them to provide money and send troops at the cost of their territory. Now Sichuan East requires them to return their territory for free. This is inappropriate, Prince Star!" Zhao Aotian reiterated again.
Situ Xing smiled and said: "Isn't it enough to take our land for twenty years and develop it for twenty years? I have not recovered their development dividends."
"You are burning bridges across the river, Prince Xing. This is fraud. From now on, Sichuan East's international reputation will plummet!"
"Pay attention to your attitude, King Zhao, you are just the King of War, I am the future king of eastern Sichuan!"
At this moment, Situ Xing was in front of the dragon throne and Zhao Aotian was in front of the ministers.
One high and the other looked at each other.
The extended vision collided like thunder, burning out the smell of gunpowder smoke that did not exist.
The two of them expressed their attitudes by looking at each other without giving in.
"I also object to what you are doing."
Zheng Qian, who had been trying to analyze calmly, now stood up and chose Zhao Aotian's side.
“Morally speaking, Situ Zhou took the initiative to sell his country, and the Sixteen Kingdoms did not participate in Eagle Valley’s attack plan, and even secretly supported Sichuan East.
Coupled with premium acquisitions and military support, their land acquisitions do not add insult to injury.
The Star Prince insists on forcibly taking it back for free. This cannot cleanse Situ Zhou's name as the Fool King, nor can it make you a wise king. This approach will only make you a worse person than the Fool King - a faint king! "
As soon as these words came out, although the ministers did not speak, their expressions showed their approval of Zheng Qian and Zhao Aotian.
That territory was not lost, but gained strength.
Now that Sichuan East has power, if he wants to get his country back, he must repay the benefactor who helped him back then.
This is reasonable.
Even Jin Ge, who was next to Situ Xing on the stage, wanted to echo several times, but Zheng Qian glared back and refused to allow him to speak.
However, in the face of what people want.
Situ Xing stood in front of the throne as steady as a mountain, looking down at everyone.
Finally, his eyes rested on Zheng Qian and Zhao Aotian.
"Yeah, I understand."
After a long time, Situ Xing finally spoke.
Upon hearing this, Zhao Aotian thought he had figured it out, and his expression immediately relaxed: "Prince Xing, do you understand? I have prepared it for you here..."
"Since you don't agree with me."
Zhao Aotian's words were interrupted by Situ Xing's cold voice.
On the stage, Situ Xing looked at Zhao Aotian and Zheng Qian with sword-like eyes, and said coldly: "Then from now on, I will announce that Zhao Aotian and Zheng Qian will be removed from their status as war kings, and all the members of the three clans will be killed." members were exiled abroad.
You are never allowed to step foot into eastern Sichuan again. "
"What..." No matter how calm and smart Zheng Qian was, he never expected Situ Xing to say such a thing.
The whole palace was in an uproar.
Situ Xing actually wants to fire Zhao Aotian and Zheng Qian? !
"Prince Star, think twice, these two are..."
"Teacher Ginger, even if you are the regent, you cannot suppress me forever and prevent me from ascending the throne."
Jin Ge just couldn't help but speak and wanted to overrule this decision, but Situ Xing turned around and stopped him as if he had expected it.
The cold eyes were like an awl, stabbing hard into Jinge's face.
"Or is it that Teacher Jinge also wants to join in the trouble with the two of them?"
"you……"
"Let's talk first. Although I am not on the throne now, as the direct successor prince, I do not need to really obey your management. If you are complicit, I can still remove you."
OK, come on!
Jinge couldn't say these four words.
Because the moment he opened his mouth, Zheng Qianyou glared at him again, telling him to shut up and submit.
Although Jin Ge was very dissatisfied in his heart, out of loyalty to Zheng Qian, he still lowered his head and chose silence unwillingly.
And this silence, in Situ Xing's eyes, was submission and fear.
"snort."
He glanced at Jin Ge, then turned to face the ministers, and finally looked at Zhao Aotian and Zheng Qian.
"Blow them both out!"
