"Bastard!" Wenren Taibo was so angry that he almost rushed up and punched him.
When he got the news of Xiaocao being captured, he was extremely anxious and wanted Emperor Xuanren to send people to the northern border immediately. Although he knew Liuqi's plot, his daughter's life was safe, but that was only her life. He didn't know what Liuqi's group of barbarians would do. But now, someone actually said such a thing!
"Princess, why did you go to the Northern Frontier? Don't you feel guilty for saying such things?"
"It is understandable that Lord Wenren loves his daughter dearly, but what I said is also true. Originally, it was not appropriate for Princess Anguo to go to Northern Frontier. Although she has great medical skills, she is alone after all. What she can do on the border is limited. Not only that, more people need to be sent to protect her, which has brought trouble to Northern Frontier. Now..."
"Shut up!" Wenren Taibo was originally a very elegant man, but now he was like an angry lion. "If that's the case, everyone will think that as long as there are others, one more or one less won't make a difference. Why would we rush to such a dangerous place? We are all afraid of death and can't wait to go home to feed our children. Who will protect the country and the people
When the epidemic broke out in the south, why did my daughter have to step forward and rush over thousands of miles regardless of her own safety? The tens of thousands of people in the county town and hundreds of thousands of people in the prefecture city should just be left to die!"
Emperor Xuanren above frowned, his eyes solemn.
The Xiadu Imperial Censor stepped forward and said, "Sir Wenren, please be careful with your words."
Wenren Taibo was angry, lifted his robe and knelt down, "I was angry and said something wrong, please forgive me, Your Majesty. But, Your Majesty, I have been learning medicine since I was young. I have never kept what I have learned. I have tried my best to benefit more people. Wherever she can contribute, wherever she is needed, she will not care about the danger and will not hesitate to work hard. As the world says, she is precious and can live a leisurely life without anyone criticizing her, but she didn't.
She was self-disciplined and spent most of her time either curing illnesses and saving lives, or researching difficult and complicated diseases, developing various medicines, or teaching people medical skills. What was she doing for? Fame and fortune? But she had been doing these things for the past 18 years, even though she was just a little female doctor.
I would like to ask, looking at the whole world, how many people can compare to her? Besides, how many officials in the Qi Dynasty, inside and outside the imperial city, have done as much for the common people as she has
Now she was captured by Liu Qi and was in trouble, but some people thought it was her fault, that she shouldn't have done that, and even that she deserved to die..."
Wenren Taibo's eyes turned red, his body trembled, and he couldn't continue speaking.
Emperor Xuanren's eyes softened slightly, "An Guo is also my daughter. Her contributions are known to the world. If the Qi Dynasty doesn't even protect such a person, how many people will be disappointed?"
“Your Majesty…” The person before him jumped out again.
"Shut up!" Emperor Xuanren glanced at him coldly, as if he dared to say one more word, he would immediately take off his official hat and dismiss him from his post. "I don't want to hear any more nonsense. Anguo must be saved. There is no room for negotiation." Emperor Xuanren's eyes were fierce. "Even if Liu Qian used Anguo as a bargaining chip to delay the situation for a while, it would only delay him for a while."
Even during the negotiations, there was absolutely no "friendly agreement" between Qi Chao and Liu Qia.
Don't forget, after a long period of preparation, Liuqi was defeated in one fell swoop, and it was around this time. At that time, no one knew there would be such a snowstorm. Liuqi's plan was at most to wipe out some of the advantages brought to Qi Dynasty by the snowstorm - yes, just some. After all, Liuqi froze those people to death, how could they get compensation from Qi Dynasty? Moreover, even if Liuqi "aided", it would only be for a few months at most. Can Liuqi's losses be wiped out in a few months
As the saying goes, a strong monarch leads to weak ministers, and a weak monarch leads to strong ministers. With such a strong and wise monarch as Emperor Xuanren, the court officials are naturally weak. After all, once he makes a decision, there is no room for others.
"What we need to consider now is who to send as the chief envoy to the northern border to negotiate with Liuqi."
"Your Majesty, I am willing to go." Wenren Taibo said immediately.
If the captured person was replaced by someone else, Wenren Taibo would indeed be a very suitable candidate. However, he has now somewhat lost his rationality and sense of proportion. If he were asked to talk to Liu Kai, wouldn't he be able to agree to any conditions Liu Kai puts forward
"Get out of the way." Emperor Xuanren was too lazy to talk nonsense with him at this moment.
"Your Majesty..."
Emperor Xuanren gave him a cold look, and Wenren Taibo had no choice but to shut up, then stood up and rolled back to his original position.
Now that the previous question had been settled, everyone now expressed their opinions and engaged in a heated discussion.
But the weather in the northern border is freezing cold, and all the elderly people are excluded. If they fall ill on the way before arriving in the northern border, it will only cause more trouble.
"Your Majesty, I am willing to go." Prince Duan stood up and spoke loudly.
The other voices disappeared immediately.
