Chapter 593 The Jin Empire surrenders!
"In this way, this Xu Pin is a talent, what do you guys say?" Ying Chang smiled at the ministers with a smile.
"Haha, yes!"
“Yes!”
"yes!"
All the officials laughed in awesomely, and it was even worse than crying!
Ying Chang took a deep breath and said calmly: "As soon as the order is taken, Feng Xu Pin is a sixth-rank official from the Ministry of Revenue, and serves as the grain custody officer. If he can complete it successfully, he will be promoted to the first rank!"
"Your Majesty is wise!" Zhang Feizi quickly bent down and flattered him.
Ying Chang looked at Zhang Feizi, and said in a cold tone: "Zhang Aiqing, don't be anxious to be happy first. I am ugly, but Zhang Aiqing said that he would guarantee Xu Pin. If Xu Pin does not do well and disappoint me, it will not only be that he will lose his official position, but Zhang Aiqing will also be blamed!"
"I understand!" Zhang Feizi responded with a solemn expression.
Ying Chang looked around the ministers and said calmly: "Do you all beloved officials have any questions to report? If there is no reason to report, then leave the court!"
After the words came to an end, no one of the officials stood out!
"Report!"
Just as Ying Chang was about to announce his retreat, an urgent report came from outside the hall. The officials and Ying Chang in the hall subconsciously looked up and saw a powerful imperial guard of Kong Wu quickly walking into the Qilin Hall. When he walked to the center of the hall, he knelt on one knee with respect to compile the report:
"Report to Your Majesty, the last general is on duty at Chengde Gate today. There is a man who claims to be an envoy of Jin outside Chengde Gate. He asked to meet His Majesty, saying that there was something important to discuss and his identity has been verified. It is indeed an envoy of the Jin Empire to Qin. Will Your Majesty announce the envoy of Jin?
Hearing these words, Ying Chang couldn't help but be surprised. It was not that he didn't know that the Jin envoy was coming, but he didn't expect that the Jin envoy was so fast. Yesterday, the Ministry of Rites submitted a memorial saying that the Jin envoy would arrive in two days, but today it was here.
"Present!" Ying Chang replied indifferently.
He wanted to see what the Jin court was planning. At this time, the envoys were sent to Qin. For the sake of redeeming Emperor Min Zizhang, a truce, and cede land and compensation?
"Abide by the order!" The Imperial Guards responded with a respectful expression, then stood up from the ground, turned around and left the Qilin Hall. As soon as the Imperial Guards left, the right Prime Minister Chang Zifei stepped forward and took a small step, and wrote with a serious expression: "Your Majesty, the Jin envoy is coming, 80% of the time he wants to ced the land and cease the battle!"
"Cexing the land and truce?"
"He was thinking about beauty. It's too late to get a truce now!"
"Twenty years ago, what did he do!"
"This battle will surely destroy the Jin Empire and seize the nine counties of the Jin Empire!"
"I guess the Jin Empire should rely on the Zhao Empire as a helper to put pressure on our Qin Dynasty and force us to stop fighting!"
"Come on, whoever is afraid of whom!"
"If the Zhao Empire dares to participate, then fight with him!"
"The Jin Empire may also want to redeem the Jin Emperor!"
"It shouldn't be. Now that the Jin Empire has established a new emperor, it is unlikely that he will redeem the previous Jin Emperor!"
"What's impossible!"
The ministers began to discuss the purpose of the Jin envoy entering Qin.
"Silent!" Pei Ji, who was standing next to the dragon chaise, shouted coldly with a solemn expression!
After the words came, the ministers shut their mouths one after another. The hall suddenly became quiet. The hall was silent for a while. Ying Chang broke the silence and said, "No matter whether the Jin envoys came to cede the land and truce the battle, or redeem their former emperor, I, Daqin, don't care!"
Ying Chang was just curious about the reason why the Jin envoy went to Qin, and did not care about the purpose of the Jin envoy. The interview with the Jin envoy was mainly to satisfy his curiosity, and secondly, to go through a motion and give the Jin Empire a last bit of respect!
After hearing this, all the ministers showed their consent. Whatever he did, it was just two words, so they refused!
The hall began to quiet, and all officials and Ying Chang were waiting for the Jin envoy to enter the hall. After about half a stick of incense, the former guards arrived to bring an old man with old skin and wrinkles. The old man was wearing a blue peacock men's garment and was resolutely a third-rank official of the Jin Empire!
This third-rank official of the Great Jin Empire was the envoy of the Great Jin Dynasty to Qin this time. He was appointed as the left minister of the Ministry of Rites, named Deng Changle. He was 48 years old this year. He did not seem so old at first, but the recent bad news made him live like a year.
Deng Changle walked to the center of the hall with a nervous expression, bowed and raised his hand to salute, "Foreign minister Deng Changle, who is in the will of our emperor, will come to Qin to pay homage to Emperor Qin!"
"Tell me, what's the matter?" Ying Chang said with a calm expression.
Deng Changle took a deep breath, forcibly stabilized his inner tension, then slowly bent down his knees, knelt down and said, "Foreign ministers representing the Grand Jin court, surrender to His Majesty Qin!"
"Hmm?" Ying Chang raised his eyebrows, a hint of surprise flashed across his eyes. All the officials in the hall were stunned and did not react for a moment. Surrender? Is the Jin Empire going to surrender?
"Even if you surrender, why don't you see the seal of Emperor Jin?" Ying Chang's sharp eyes as sharp as a sword intimidated Deng Changle's mind!
Deng Changle trembled and gritted his teeth and replied, "Go back to Emperor Qin, my great Jin is willing to demote himself to the national level and to a vassal state. The emperor will be changed to a king, and will be under the command of the Great Qin Empire, and ceded all the territory outside Jinchang County to the Great Qin!"
The meaning of this sentence is very simple. Surrender can be done, but the great Jin regime must be retained, which indirectly explains why he did not surrender with the seal of Emperor Jin. The seal of Emperor Jin symbolizes a country's regime. During the empire, it was the seal of Emperor Jin, and during the vassal states, it was the seal of Princes!
If there is no seal, the regime will not exist and the nations will not recognize it!
"No!" Ying Chang refused without hesitation, "The Great Qin does not need a vassal state. The Great Jin regime that the Great Qin wants is completely destroyed and the world will be returned to Qin!"
Deng Changle fell silent and seemed to be in hesitation.
"Let's do this, the condition I gave you the former emperor was that as long as the Great Jin Dynasty was willing to surrender to the whole country, I appointed Emperor Jin as the hereditary King of Jin and gave him a palace in Xianyang City for eternal life and eternal life. I will eat my Qin Lu for generations. The descendants of the royal family will be treated preferentially, and they can be appointed as officials and join the army!" Ying Chang then said, telling Deng Changle his conditions.
Deng Changle looked up at Ying Chang on the high platform and asked nervously, "Where are the officials of the Great Jin Dynasty?"
"I welcome those who are willing to serve the Qin Dynasty. Those who are unwilling to serve the Qin Dynasty will be given a mansion in Xianyang and take good care of their old age!" Ying Chang said calmly.
"Oh!" Deng Changle let out a long sigh, his head slowly lowered, his forehead pressed against the floor, and he said in a weak voice: "Okay!"
Originally, when the Jin court surrendered, he did not think about retaining the regime. However, Deng Changle was unwilling and lucky, and wanted to retain the regime for the Great Jin Dynasty. Unfortunately, this was just a dream that Daqin would not discard the fat meat he had!
