"Then, what the king means..." Qiu Rong asked tentatively.

King Huan glanced at him: "I'm afraid the Prime Minister will have objections when he said it, but when things have developed to this point, I have to do so."

Speaking of this, he paused and said, "Ask peace with the ghost clan."

"What...what!?" Qiu Rong's eyes widened, and he didn't react.

King Huan sighed, as if he was serious: "Prime Minister, have you ever thought about it? Our army's combat strength is not as good as the ghost army. If we continue to fight with it, even if the Allies enter Huan territory, then our army will be completely destroyed by then!"

Qiu Rong still looked shocked and had not come back to his senses.

King Huan continued: "The Ghost Army is fierce, I don't know if the Allies can break through Wuxia Pass!"

At this moment, Qiu Rong finally reacted and asked in a trembling voice: "Big... the king wants to give up fighting with the Ghost Army, but in this way, where will the people in Huan land be placed..."

Knowing that he would say this, King Huan avoided the important and said lightly: "This is just my delaying strategy. First, discuss peace with the ghost clan, preserve our army's strength, and wait for the Allied troops to repel the ghost army. As for those civilians, I can't control so much."

The war between foreign races had already happened in Huan territory, and the assistance of the various nations and alliances was due to national justice.

This is the first country of Huan to stand up and resist fiercely, fighting to the end, but in such a national crisis, King Huan was still thinking about sitting in the mountains and watching the tiger fight, which shows that he was greedy and selfish!

When Qiu Rong heard this, he also shouted sadly: "King! The ghost clan is an enemy from abroad. He kills my people and slaughteres my compatriots! How many evil deeds have been committed! If you discuss peace with him, how will the people of Huan Kingdom view the royal court? How will the people of the world view the Huan Kingdom!"

"These are no longer important! What's important is that Huan Kingdom is still there now!"

"But the king!"

"Prime Minister!" King Huan interrupted him, showing an unhappy look: "I knew you would object, but this matter is related to the safety of Huan Kingdom. Don't use your personal opinion to influence military and national affairs!"

The meaning of this sentence was already very obvious. Qiu Rong couldn't help but shake his body and staggered back two steps: "King..."

"Okay! This matter will be mentioned in the court tomorrow. As for how to make a decision, it still needs the opinions of all the ministers. The Prime Minister will retreat if you have nothing to do." King Huan waved his hand impatiently.

He is the monarch and has ordered his ministers to retreat. Qiu Rong had no choice but to do his best and said, "Yes, the minister is leaving, and I beg the king to think twice..."

After saying that, he also politely retreated.

This is King Huan, who is greedy and selfish, likes to take advantage of small gains. When he is not helped by the Allies, he is so panicked. When he is helped by the Allies, he wants to sit and watch the Allies defeat foreign enemies.

If the king is like this, the degree of decay of the court can be imagined.

During the court meeting the next day, when King Huan brought up the matter, he not only did not encounter much opposition, but instead received a lot of support.

Most of the ministers of Huan Kingdom seek peace. Even if they can win, they still hope for peace, let alone being crushed all the way now. Even if King Huan doesn't mention it, I'm afraid someone will propose it today.

The ministers on the scene were roughly divided into three batches.

The head of Qiu Rong insisted on opposing him, but the number of people was too small, with only a few people, and it was soon refuted by Guo Kai and his group.

The other party could not resist the talk, and he was obviously at a disadvantage after the debate.

Some others were swaying around and wanted to seek peace and ensure safety, but they also felt that the peace agreement seemed to have a great impact.

Especially Guo Kai, he even listed the various benefits of peace talks with King Huan.

He said: "Now the Ghost King has entered the Central Plains in person. Maybe the Ghost Army has a follow-up army. Their combat power is too strong. If you continue to fight, there will be only a dead end."

"Similarly, the Allies have arrived at Wuxia Pass. If our country chooses to negotiate peace with the Ghost Army, it will not only keep peace and avoid war, but also lead the Ghost Army to the Allies, so that they can fight to the death."

You know, the Allies are here to help Huan Kingdom! Now that foreign enemies are invading, everyone should work together to fight the ghost clan out first!

But Guo Kai's words were just in the heart of King Huan.

The latter was about to agree, but Qiu Rong stood up and said sternly: "How big is the territory of our country of Huan! Tens of millions of people! If the court tells the world clearly, fight to the end! Tens of millions of people will follow you! But now, he is bullied by the little ghost clan to this point! It is because of your corrupt bones! There is no bones!"

"Wang Ting didn't dare to fight anymore! The people can only be enslaved by the ghost clan! The soldiers no longer have the will to fight! How can they be invincible!"

He was really angry.

But Guo Kai immediately said: "Master, is it too biased to blame us ministers for the failure of the front line war?"

King Huan's face also darkened: "Is the Prime Minister accusing our country of Huan for being weak? I have said a long time ago that this is a delaying strategy. For military and national affairs, it is not necessary to fight to the death to protect the country."

"But as a member of my Chinese princes, your peace request represents the entire Huan Kingdom!!"

"The Ghost Clan is an enemy from other places! It is not my kind! The king's peace request will only further increase their arrogance! It will allow them to further invade the Central Plains! It will only make our people even more panic! It will make our military and civilians' only fighting spirit disappear!"

"King! You are the monarch of Huan Kingdom! No one can fight without fighting! The king's court must fight without fighting!!"

Qiu Rong said loudly.

His attitude has become more inclined to question.

King Huan couldn't help but look cold.

Seeing this, Guo Kai took the opportunity to point out Qiu Rong: "The Prime Minister is rude! This is the court's discussion hall. As the prime minister, I will discuss politics with the emperor. How dare I do this??"

Qiu Rong was too lazy to pay attention to him. Now that things have come to this, he knows in his heart that with the character of King Huan and the support of ministers such as Guo Kai, he may be unable to change it.

Therefore, in anger, he bowed directly to King Huan: "I am not in good health, so I will leave first, please forgive me!"

After saying that, he even snorted at Guo Kai and left with his sleeves.

Before the court could be disbanded, he left like this, which showed anger in his heart.

Looking at his back, King Huan's face became colder.

The ministers on both sides looked at each other.

Guo Kaize said repeatedly: "This, this, king, look at Lord Qiu, your attitude is really arrogant! If this continues, there is no king in his eyes..."

"Okay! Don't say anything more!" King Huan was also very angry. He naturally felt a sense of anger towards Qiu Rong's attitude today, but he endured it and did not attack. Instead, he ignored the matter and looked at Guo Kai:

"Mr. Guo, for peace talks, you can work hard to meet the ghost king."

"Yes, I received the order..."
