Chapter 283 Sudden Message
"Your Majesty, your words are too kind."
As soon as Tianxuan finished speaking, the huge figure in the crowd who was the focus of his attention replied in a voice as sweet as an oriole. While speaking, a pair of triangular eyes blinked and cast a seductive glance at Tianxuan.
Forehead!
Facing the ambiguous glances from a woman with a voice as sweet as the song of an oriole, a body as big as a sow, and facial features that have nothing to recommend them, and a typical round face, is definitely not a pleasant thing. Tianxuan felt a chill all over his body, and he almost jumped up and slapped this fat woman named Gongsun Linglong.
"Mr. Gongsun, if we talk about oratory, the school of diplomacy is the best among all the schools of thought." After taking a deep breath and calming down, Tianxuan looked at Gongsun Linglong as if nothing had happened. "In the past, Su Qin and Zhang Yi both used their eloquent tongues to dominate the world, and their words could be worth tens of thousands of soldiers."
"Although the oratory of the masters is not as good as that of the diplomats, both 'a white horse is not a horse' and 'a sheep born in a triangle' have left their names in history. I want to manage the Western Regions and assimilate the people of the Western Regions with the civilization of the Central Plains, even the Qiang people and the wolf tribe. I wonder how many elite disciples of the masters Mr. Gongsun has brought with him?"
"Thirty of them, all of them are elites of our famous schools. The five most outstanding among them have debated with Confucian disciples in the Jixia Academy!"
Gongsun Linglong looked at Tianxuan's handsome face with sharp eyebrows and starry eyes and a nose like a gallbladder, and found that her heart was shamefully moved. Fortunately, she had not forgotten the original intention of coming here, and faced Tianxuan's question without hesitation.
"Thirty?" Tianxuan thought, "That should be enough."
"Everyone, what about you?" After asking Gongsun Linglong, the woman who would be nicknamed Aunt Gongsun by Jing Tianming in the future, Tianxuan turned his gaze and looked at the representatives of Confucianism, Legalism, Military Science, and Miscellaneous Schools.
"Your Majesty, I have brought with me thirty well-educated Confucian scholars."
"Your Majesty, I have brought ten disciples of the Fa School."
"Sir, all you need is a word from you, and my thirteen military disciples will fight for you!"
"Your Majesty, the forty-two disciples of our family are waiting for your orders."
……
In most people's minds, with the defeat of the wolf tribe, it was easy for Tianxuan to seize the Western Region. For the people of the various schools of thought, promoting the doctrine of their own school is undoubtedly the highest pursuit. When Zheng Ge intended to send a team composed of students from various schools of thought to Wuwushuang City to help Tianxuan govern the Western Region, the people of various schools of thought rose up.
The famous family and its heir Gongsun Linglong came out in person; the people coming from the Legalists, Confucians, Eclecticists, and Military Strategists were all elites.
"very good."
Tianxuan was very satisfied with everyone's answers.
"In that case, I will order someone to prepare a school. After the Western Regions surrender, I will invite the masters of Confucianism and Miscellaneous School to spread the Central Plains civilization to the hostages of the Western Regions."
"Here."
The representatives of Confucianism and Eclecticism knew that their doctrines were not as effective as those of other schools of thought in terms of immediate use, so they had no objection to Tianxuan's arrangement.
"Gentlemen of the Legalists, please compile a set of laws for Wushuang City, no, for the entire Western Regions, to restrain the caravans and restrict the countries in the Western Regions." After assigning tasks to the Confucianists and Eclecticists, Tianxuan turned his attention to the representatives of the Legalists.
"Please rest assured, Your Majesty."
Compiling laws and judging cases are the specialty of the Legalists. The representative of the Legalists, Shen Wujiu, is a man in his thirties with a straight face and an upright character. He is said to be the master of the Legalists: Shen Buhai. After Shen Buhai, facing the heavy task assigned by Tianxuan, Shen Wujiu had no intention of refusing, and his eyes were filled with excitement.
"Zhang Han, why did His Majesty send you here?"
After assigning tasks to the famous scholars, Confucianists, eclecticists, and Legalists, Tianxuan's handsome face showed a helpless expression.
Zhang Han!
A rising star in the empire and also Tianxuan's former comrade-in-arms.
"You should ask His Majesty this question." Facing Tianxuan's questioning, Zhang Han was not moved at all and said calmly. "Yes," Tianxuan smiled knowingly, "You should indeed ask His Majesty. Of course, the premise is that I have the courage to do so."
Bang!
Just when Tianxuan was about to pack the thirteen military strategists brought by Zhang Han into the army, he suddenly heard hurried footsteps. Before Tianxuan could say anything, the tightly closed door was violently pushed open from the outside. A servant from the mansion rushed into the room and appeared in front of Tianxuan.
"What happened?" Tianxuan frowned, looked down at the other party with displeasure, and asked loudly.
"Your Majesty, General Li and Mr. Chen Ping are back!" The servants did not dare to look at Tianxuan, fearing that they would become his punching bag. "They... they have returned in defeat!"
"What?" Upon learning that Li Shang and Chen Ping, who were sent by him to the Western Regions to turn Gumo into a bridgehead, returned in defeat, Tianxuan's face changed furiously and he jumped up from the armchair.
As Tianxuan exclaimed, the antique study room decorated by him also had a solemn atmosphere. Zhang Han, an imperial general, had a stern expression, and his right hand instinctively appeared on the hilt of the sword.
"Take Li Shang and Chen Ping to Xuanyuan Hall." After being shocked, Tian Xuan suppressed his confusion and questions in his heart, "Pass on my order and order Zhou Bo, Liu Ji, Xiao He, Fan Kuai, Lü Laobo, and Cao Shen to come see me!"
"Here."
After hearing Tianxuan's order, the servants felt as if they had been pardoned, and ran out with their hands and feet.
"Somebody come!"
After sending away the servant who came to report the news, Tianxuan's eyes fell on Gongsun Linglong and others, and called for people again.
"Your Majesty!" As soon as Tianxuan gave the order, two pretty girls appeared on both sides of the door, with their heads lowered, waiting for Tianxuan's order.
"Take Mr. Gongsun and the others to the inn to rest." He ordered his servants to take Gongsun Linglong and the others away. Tianxuan showed everyone an apologetic expression, "Gentlemen, this happened suddenly. I have to deal with it first. Sorry."
"Your Majesty, your words are too kind."
"Goodbye, my Lord."
"Your Majesty, we will meet again."
……
Gongsun Linglong and the others also knew that they had suffered a great defeat and that Tianxuan had to deal with it urgently. As they spoke with relief, the representatives of the other four families, except Zhang Han, followed the servants and headed towards the inn in the city.
"General Zhang, let's go!" Tianxuan looked at Zhang Han, the only one who stayed. Seeing the solemn look on Zhang Han's face, he knew that Zhang Han had changed his identity from an envoy to a general of the Qin Empire. He said, "If the situation is urgent, I'm afraid you will have to put on your armor and follow me into battle to kill the enemy!"
"Ah."
…………
"We lost, we lost!"
“What a miserable defeat!”
"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu"
……
When the 3,000 Qin troops set out, they were full of vigor and vigor, as if nothing in the world could defeat them. But when they returned, their morale was low, and only a thousand of the 3,000 soldiers were left. They were all covered in dust and looked in disarray. They were gathered outside Wushuang City, wailing and howling at the sun hanging high in the sky.
