The Age of Lords Reborn

Chapter 861 The Confrontation in Wang's Imperial City (Subscribe)
The royal palace of Korea, the imperial city of the Wang family.

Although it has the name of the imperial city, in Mo Xiaobai's view, except for the slightly larger area, the entire palace has no royal majesty, and it is more like a manor that has been painstakingly built.

It can be seen from the mere sixth-level level of guards on guard that Goryeo's overall military strength is really not very good.

Stepping into the palace, the two rows of Korean ministers on the left and right have arrived.

King Goryeo is sitting on the 'Dragon Chair' at the moment, and Mo Xiaobai estimates that he should be about 40 years old from his appearance.

The two looked at each other, and it was not difficult for Mo Xiaobai to see the anger hidden in each other's eyes.

"Foreign minister, I have met the King of Korea."

Now that he had entered the palace, Mo Xiaobai performed the ceremony of audience in a proper manner.After all, China is a country of etiquette, and it would be embarrassing to spread such impoliteness.

After chatting to express our respect, he took the lead in saying: "Last night, I didn't notice the firearm I was carrying for a moment. The fire broke out and destroyed the moat, disturbing the subjects of your country. Please forgive me, the king. If you want to repair the moat, I will definitely compensate you according to the price. .”

Didn't notice for a while?
Compensation according to price?

I am the emperor of Korea, will I be short of that money?

Outrageous!

Sitting on the dragon chair, the emperor of Korea, Wang Xun, was about to challenge Mo Xiaobai for what happened last night, but this guy was lucky enough to explain everything to... a fire?
"Are you a three-year-old child?"

With a sullen expression on his face, he opened his mouth, and the anger that had been accumulated all night broke out completely at this moment: "If the shelling was not aimed at the outside of the city, but this palace, would you still use such words today?"

"My lord Mingjian, although my dragon cannon is powerful, its effective range is not more than ten miles. I was still in the temple last night, but it was twelve or three miles away from the palace. No matter what, it will not bring any danger to the palace." Xiaobai cupped his hands again, squinted his eyes and started talking nonsense, anyway, he would not let the Koreans inspect the dragon cannon, so he was giving the King of Korea a step.

Sure enough, Wang Xun, who seemed to understand what Mo Xiaobai said, calmed down a little, but he still didn't reveal the matter right away: "It won't threaten the palace, so can my royal city be left to fire by you? "

"I would like to offer ten thousand gold to make amends for what happened last night." Mo Xiaobai spoke again very simply, making Wang Xun who was sitting on the dragon chair froze, and even the surrounding Korean courtiers clicked their tongues.

Wan Jin!

What a great handwriting!
After the momentary stupefaction passed, Wang Xun immediately clapped his hands: "A gentleman's words are hard to follow. I offer ten thousand gold. I will not pursue what happened last night."

Mo Xiaobai nodded: "Your Majesty, don't worry, when the foreign ministers return to the Dahan, I will send someone to bring the Wanjin."

As soon as the words fell, someone on the right stood up: "Is the earl joking? Since the promise should be fulfilled in court. Or the earl has no intention of paying compensation at all, and is just using this to play tricks on my king?"

"It's not that I procrastinate on purpose. It's just that I'm not safe here. Even the prize money won in the competition the day before yesterday has already been sent back. It must be almost to Wanshi Island." Mo Xiaobai shook his head with a smile, and looked at the The king of Koryo in front: "If the king is not at ease, the foreign ministers can sign a contract, and there is no intention of going back on it."

For Mo Xiaobai, nothing that can be solved with money is not a problem.If you can use [-] gold to guarantee the safety of your party, you can definitely save a lot of trouble.

However, Mo Xiaobai wanted to get things done so easily, but some people did not make him happy. The current prime minister standing at the forefront of the ministers came out, looked at Mo Xiaobai and said, "I think this matter can be discussed later." Today, the earl and the general are invited here, not because of the so-called million dollars, but because there is one thing that needs to be clarified."

Beside Mo Xiaobai, Zhou Hun whispered at the right time: "Count, this person is Yuan Zhiqi, the Patriarch of the Yuan Family."

After giving Zhou Hun a clear look, Mo Xiaobai also turned sideways: "What advice does the prime minister have?"

Yuan Zhiqi's old face was low, and he said in a cold voice: "I dare not be a teacher. The Earl and General Cao's troops went straight to the border of Baekje. Should I give my king an explanation for this matter?"

"An explanation? Want an explanation?" Mo Xiaobai pretended not to know, then turned to look at Cao Yi: "Uncle Guo, did our soldiers cross the border and collide with Korea?"

Cao Yi understood, and said with a smile: "Korea is in the north, we are waiting to fight in the south, why is there a conflict?"

"That means it's gone?"

Mo Xiaobai nodded first, then turned to Yuan Zhiqi and said, "Return to the Prime Minister, General Cao and I don't know what to say to you, please tell me clearly."

The emperor was sitting on it, and the skill of Mo Xiaobai's words made Yuan Zhiqi's old face look very ugly in an instant.

As an earl, Mo Xiaobai's tricks are so... rascal!
Although everyone present knew that this was just a trick to provoke Goryeo's monarchs and ministers, but this trick itself showed a problem.

Yuan Zhiqi hurriedly faced Wang Xun, bent down and saluted, and said, "Your Majesty, the three Koreas on the peninsula are one. This is a major military and national event, and the old minister has the courage to ask the king to put the country first and immediately send troops to the south to support Baekje." .”

Wang Xun sat on it and watched the play for a long time, and said uncertainly: "What the prime minister said is exactly what this king thinks. Han and Song invaded Baekje for no reason. This king must not just sit idly by."

"Your Majesty's words are wrong. How could we use swords for no reason?"

Hearing this, Mo Xiaobai waved his hands, shook his head and said, "I won't talk about the old scores between Dahan and Baekje. Although I won the battle of Wanshi Island, I lost a lot. Baekje has always held a grudge. There are many people on the east coast. Take precautions and be ready to counterattack at any time. What's more, Baekje has a grudge against me, and at the same time, it has greed for Silla. It thinks that its military strength is strong, so it will bully the weak. If it weren't for this, the Silla envoys would not be forced to visit me unannounced A big man, I am sorry for Baiji's ten crimes."

"Let me ask, if I, a big man, turn a blind eye and indulge Baekje like Goryeo, and wait for Baekje to defeat Silla with all its strength, and then come to Wanshi Island with a big victory, how will I, a big man, defend ourselves against the enemy? So this battle seems to be We waited for a surprise attack, but the cause was Baekje's ignorance and greed, and my Han expedition was Wang Shiyi's army, in order to seek justice for Silla."

The crackling call came out, leaving aside other effects, Mo Xiaobai almost believed it himself.

Dong Chong Xia Wan, who participated in this kind of court discussion for the first time, was a little stunned. The boss was really invincible for being able to turn right and wrong to such an extent.

"What a eloquent Earl of Han, you mean that Han and Song want to intervene in Samhan, support Silla to annex Baekje and compete with Korea?"

The so-called Jiang is still old and hot. Although Mo Xiaobai fooled around, Yuan Zhiqi still maintained a clear mind, and pointed directly at the dead point that Wang Xun could not bear.

In any case, the infighting in Sanhan is Sanhan's own business.

As the king of Goryeo, Wang Xun never wanted to see outsiders intervene in Samhan.

At the moment when Wang Xun's expression changed suddenly, Mo Xiaobai frowned, cupped his hands and said, "Your Excellency's whimsy is not bad, but there is no enmity between the big man and Goryeo, why should I bother to let Silla Sit down and become enmity with your country? Could it be that the king of Silla is my own brother?"
