Chapter 2617: Wearing a Smaller Shoe Size

rim and placed it in the corner, covering it with a bamboo sieve to keep the dust out.Estimating that it was almost noon, the siblings, with aching arms, started preparing their lunch.What are you hav...Luo Fengtang shook his head, a cold expression on his face: "First of all, I'm a soldier. Protecting my country is my duty."

Furthermore, military orders are like mountains, and imperial commands are difficult to disobey!

And lastly, all these Liao armies invading Daqi were under the command of Tuo Ba Yu.

It was also at the instigation of Tuo Ba Yucai that he came to attack Daliang.

And Tuo Ba Yu was precisely the prince who, while his mother came south to Changping Village for a family reunion, took advantage of the situation to seize the young emperor and usurp the throne.

For several years, this former Great Liao Princess and regent for the young emperor has lived a low-key life in Changping Village.

Although she appeared calm and composed in front of him, enjoying the bliss of family togetherness, with a smile as she doted on her grandchildren.

But Luo Fengtang knew, his mother's suffering and her unwillingness could only be buried deep in her heart.

Publicly and privately, this time out on campaign, even if the emperor doesn't appoint me, I will definitely volunteer to go!

“Qing'er will understand me!” His thoughts returned, Luo Fengtang looked at Mu Zichuan and said again in a deep voice.

The voice was extremely certain, without the slightest hesitation.

This left Mukizuka in stunned silence. He thought to himself, "These two people trust each other so much"

>

It's truly invaluable!

"Come on, it's time for the court." Luofengtang patted Mùzichuan's shoulder and strode towards the front gate.

Let me know if you have other text you'd like me to translate!

Mu Zi Chuan responded with a sound, and followed after him.

“By the way, Fengtang brother, when I came over earlier, I saw you chatting with Lord Zuo. How come, did you two know each other before” Mu Zijian asked again.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

“Left Sir I don’t know him.” Luo Fengtang shook his head.

"It was he who took the initiative to strike up a conversation with me. He said he knew me, but I didn't know him. When I asked his name, he was being evasive and wouldn't tell me. I wasn't even bothered to ask again!" he added.

Mu Zi Chuan's footsteps suddenly stopped.

“Feng Tang, there is something I want to remind you about. Perhaps I am overthinking things, but I still want to let you know.” Mu Zi Chuan said.

Luo Fengtang also stopped, turning his head to look at Mu Zichuan: "I'm all ears."

Mu Zichuan said: "The Left Minister we saw earlier is the newly appointed Minister of War."

“Oh” Luofengtang raised an eyebrow.

Since you're superior/inferior to me, why didn't you clarify your identity beforehand

Mu Zichuan continued, "You've been training soldiers in seclusion at Xishan for the past year and are likely unaware of the changes that have occurred in the court."

"This Left Grand Tutor is a relative of the former Minister of War, the one who took you to the White Tiger Hall in the Ministry of War."

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

Luo Fengtang suddenly realized.

“In the court, does he still want to publicly humiliate me” he said.

Mu Zichuan said, "This person is very cunning. He flattered the emperor in the end. His sister entered the palace at the beginning of the year and is now six months pregnant by the end of the year. She will give birth to a royal child next year. Now he is in high spirits."

"Therefore, when we get to the Golden Dragon Hall later, Brother Feng Tang, you should still be as careful as possible and don't provoke that Left Minister."

Luo Fengtang frowned, a trace of disgust flashing in his eyes. He hated this kind of intrigue and backstabbing the most.

But he still smiled gratefully at Mukizuka, “Don’t worry, I have nothing to fear.”

Muzi Chuan also nodded. "That's good then, if he takes the opportunity to make things difficult for you later, I will help you out."

Luo Fengtang smiled again and patted Mu Zichuan's shoulder: "Let's go, it's almost time."

The two walked side by side, together traversing a long marble-paved avenue, and then stepped onto the high white stone staircase ahead, ascending all the way...

In the hall of court, civil and military officials gathered, but the atmosphere was extremely tense.

This is the translation of your text:

Because, urgent news came from the north, King Ling led a large army south and will arrive at Yanmen Pass in three days.

Let me know if you'd like me to translate any other text!

The Yangu Pass is the northern gate of Dachi and has been a strategic location since ancient times.

Once the Yanmen Pass is lost, the capital city of Daqi will be in imminent danger.

Therefore, Emperor Qi sat on the dragon throne, his face gloomy and his complexion poor.

After the eunuch general finished expressing his love, Emperor Qi flicked his long sleeve.

“The war in the north is a critical threat, endangering our great Qi's land and people. Everyone, please share your thoughts!” he said.

>

But the court was eerily silent. Everyone stood with their heads bowed and hands clasped in front of them, standing respectfully.

Eyes gazing at the nose, nose gazing at the heart, the vast hall was so silent that one could almost hear the sound of a needle falling to the floor.

The Qi Emperor waited for a moment, but there was no sound. His gaze swept over the crowd before him, and seeing that no one stepped forward, his face turned dark with displeasure.

Last time during the peace talks, each of you spoke eloquently, analyzing and speculating about Great Liao like you had a guarantee.

>

"Why, when it is truly time to tear face and draw swords today, are you all so flustered"

"Yes, I long for peace throughout the land and dislike bloodshed,"

"But when a nation reaches such a time, even the Buddha would have to take up sword and shield!"

Now, I need to hear your voices. Who will speak first

The Emperor Qi's imposing gaze swept over the crowd below, and everyone bowed their heads, afraid to meet the gaze of the Emperor Qi.

Qi Huang was so angry his eyes almost popped out of his head. He pointed at one of the ministers: "Wang DaRen, if my memory serves me correctly, you were the most eloquent when discussing the matter of Da Liao's disturbance of our Qi territory during the previous court meetings."

“Well then, what do you propose Let's hear it!” said the Emperor.

Mr. Wang, this old geezer, actually wanted to issue a challenge last time but was talked out of it by him.

The old geezer also rallied a bunch of people to chime in, the gist being that if you can avoid fighting, don't fight. If you can condemn and negotiate, don't resort to violence.

"Your Majesty, Great Liao is being too arrogant and taking advantage of our kindness. This old minister naturally wants to give them a severe lesson so they know the might of our Great Qi and Your Majesty's majesty cannot be challenged." Wang Da Ren said submissively.

"However, the War God King, Your Highness, is currently in the south, busy subjugating the Black Lotus Sect and the barbarians."

"If Prince Yunwang were to be transferred to the North, then our Great Qi's southern gate would be in grave danger."

“While the soldiers were far away in the south, they couldn't help with the immediate situation. By the time they arrived, it had been over a month, delaying the opportunity for battle and putting the south in danger...”

“Your Majesty, please reconsider. If there’s truly no other way, we can offer greater sincerity...” Wang Da said.

“What does it mean to show more sincerity” Emperor Qi asked in a low voice, his eyes filled with suppressed anger.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

“Is it ceding territory, paying indemnities, and handing over cities” he asked.

Lord Wang said, "It's not necessarily a bad idea. Letting the princess go to visit her relatives could be a good choice..."

"Behave yourself!"

Emperor Qi slapped the table in front of him, which was carved with dragons and phoenixes, his anger flaring.

“To retreat again and again, we, the great Qi Heavenly Dynasty, how can we bear such a great humiliation”

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

“Come here, strip Wang Bosheng of his position as Minister of History! This man is suspected of treason and collaborating with the enemy. Take him down and temporarily hand him over to the Ministry of Rites for custody. We will investigate him further after that!”

"Your Majesty, the old minister is wronged!"

"Your Majesty, the old minister is being wronged..."
