Demoting the Wife to a Concubine? The Reborn Legitimate Daughter Crippled his Entire Family.

The Duke of Jin had a conflict between heaven and man in his heart. He didn't want to bear the reputation of being greedy for life and afraid of death, but he also really wanted to do something for Nan Zhao.

Moreover, he was dubious about Shen Ning's words and did not dare to believe them all.

The atmosphere in the hall was a bit stagnant.

The other officials who were summoned did not say a word at this time.

He neither showed his contempt for Shen Ning's words nor angrily criticized Jin Guogong's decision.

After a brief silence, one of the young officials spoke: "Even if the Duke of Jin has the world in mind and is willing to give up his reputation for the people of Nanzhao and be charged with being greedy for life and fearing death, and betraying the Lord and seeking glory, how can you guarantee that he will succeed?" How long will you live? After using us ministers, when the situation in Nanzhao stabilizes, you will find a reason to kill us all? "

The cunning rabbit dies and the lackey is cooked.

Nan Zhao is currently employing people. Ji Yucang and Shen Ning are determined to recruit capable loyal ministers and generals. This decision is not surprising to them.

But what happens after you finish using it?

Will they be killed as former ministers of the previous dynasty?

As soon as this was said, other ministers nodded: "That's right! Who would believe the promises of you invaders?"

"Because the reason why Ji Yucang and I are willing to pardon you is for the sake of the people of Nanzhao." Shen Ning said calmly, "There are many traitorous officials in Nanzhao and if I promise them to be loyal to the new emperor, do you think these people are using their interests to Will your treacherous minister agree?"

The Duke of Jin and several other officials looked at each other.

"It is easier to subdue traitors than loyal ministers, but we all know that traitors only think about themselves, while loyal ministers think about the people of the world." Shen Ning made a promise seriously and seriously, "Since it is all for the people, you should believe me. It’s the same with you. No matter who takes the decision in the future, I can ensure that loyal ministers will never be killed unjustly.”

The Duke of Jin raised his eyes and looked at Ji Yucang who said nothing: "The reputation of the regent of Yong has spread all over the world. This time he led troops to conquer Nan Zhao. Doesn't he plan to proclaim himself emperor?"

Ji Yucang's voice was indifferent: "This issue is not something you need to consider."

"If South Vietnam attacks in the future, who does the regent plan to send to fight?"

"First, I can ensure that South Vietnam does not dare to raise troops; second, even if South Vietnam does dare to raise troops, there are many people under my command who can fight, and there is no need for the Duke of Jin." Ji Yucang said calmly, "So you don't have to worry that you will Die on the battlefield, or be killed for supporting the troops."

The Duke of Jin was shocked and his face turned green and white.

Although he did think so in his heart, but...how could Ji Yucang guess it?

Shouldn't he think that he wants to go to the battlefield and perform meritorious service?

Ji Yucang casually took the jade seal on the dragon case and looked at it carelessly: "I dare to save your lives today, and I will not be afraid of your rebellion in the future, so put away those unnecessary worries. No family in this world can last forever. The dynasty is still prosperous, let alone all of you, the former ministers? "

Why worry so much?

After ten years there will be fifty years, and after fifty years there will be a hundred years.

Who can ensure eternal prosperity for his children and grandchildren?

If you are worried about this, you might as well just wipe your neck and be done with it.

Duke Jin and several other ministers looked at each other, obviously struggling.

Shen Ning could understand their reaction.

For some noble ministers who pay attention to reputation, it is indeed unacceptable to have their reputation damaged. Not to mention what outsiders will think, they may even feel a little contempt for themselves. They despise themselves because they are afraid of death, and they are even more afraid of implicating their wives. Sons and grandsons have tarnished the name of "strongness".

But if they die, they will never see what happens to Nanzhao and the people of Nanzhao in the future.

There is nothing you can do to help them.

Even...even in a corner that no one knows about, they may feel a trace of joy deep in their hearts. They are glad that the foolish kings and traitorous ministers who led to the destruction of Nan Zhao have been eliminated, and they are glad that there is a new emperor who can break the enemy in Nan Zhao's belly. The difficult situation allowed Nan Zhao to break through and stand up again, and regain a new life.

"Everyone, go back and think about it." Shen Ning didn't plan to say too much, "Go back and take a look at your families, your wives and daughters, your sons and daughters-in-law, or your elderly parents, and the anxious eyes of the whole family. You Make your decision again.”

"Three days." Ji Yucang said, "After three days, if you want to die, you should have Bai Ling at home. You will know what to do. If you are willing to do your best for the people of Nanzhao, I welcome you."

The Duke of Jin said: "Will you treat the people of Nan Zhao and the people of Yong Dynasty equally?"

"Yes." Ji Yucang nodded, "But the customs of Nanzhao and Yong Dynasty are different, and some rules may be different, so if officials from Yong Dynasty govern your people, you can think about whether it will bring some inconvenience to them. ?”

The Duke of Jin was silent, nodded slightly, turned around and walked out.
