Chapter 239: Killing an egg against a stone
"But what if your Linnan's sword is broken?" asked Censor Chen.
"We are willing to cancel the land transfer and seal off the country. I believe King Linnan will forgive us."
"After all, our Linnan soldiers are not as good as the Han army." Peng Wen said confidently, and began to introduce the long sword in his hand to everyone, saying it was so sharp that it could cut iron like mud.
Now, all the soldiers of Linnan are equipped with this sword, and they are unstoppable wherever they go.
In the eyes of other ministers, Peng Wen's self-confidence, which came from the bottom of his heart, was just mysterious self-confidence, like a monkey who did not know his own limits.
At present, all the officials in the court look down on Peng Wen, but only Ren Hao is sober-minded. He knows that this old man Peng Wen is not an easy person to deal with.
"Your Majesty, this must not be agreed to. This sword is made of fine steel. Regardless of whether Linnan's soldiers are fully prepared, Peng Wen must have planned it in advance." Ren Hao saw through Peng Wen's plan at a glance and immediately spoke out to stop him.
Peng Wen's expression suddenly changed at this moment. He never expected that Ren Hao could actually recognize fine steel.
Could it be that the Han Dynasty had already mastered the art of steel smelting?
This kid is definitely not an ordinary person.
Peng Wen sighed secretly, and just when he thought that this plan would fail, Zhao Ping'an came to his rescue.
"I have never heard of this in all my years in office."
After Zhao Ping'an finished his words, he took the opportunity to incriminate the king, saying that Ren Hao was a spy planted in the court by the King of Linnan, who was afraid that the iron sword of Linnan would be broken by the iron sword of the Han Dynasty and miss the opportunity to change the king's territory and enfeoffment.
This sound from the traitor really made Ren Hao laugh.
"Prime Minister Zhao, please stop talking nonsense. I think using a sword contest to decide whether to change a territory or enfeoff a country is too much of a joke."
"I think this matter needs further consideration." Ren Hao explained hurriedly, and winked at the Emperor on the throne, hoping that the Emperor could understand his eyes and not agree, but must come up with a temporary solution.
Let’s not talk about the fact that the sword competition would decide the land change and the country establishment. This sword competition would expose the gap in weapons between the two sides.
What does that old saying go?
If you fall behind, you will be beaten.
Peng Wen only knew that the elite troops of the Han army were stationed at the God of War Pass, but he was not clear about the current level of weapons of the Han army.
Once Peng Wen knew that the Han soldiers' weapons were backward and he released them, it would be a small matter whether to agree to change the king of Linnan's fiefdom or let him declare himself emperor. The only thing was that the king of Linnan would, under Peng Wen's instigation, directly lead his troops to the north and rebel.
But Wen Yan did not believe Ren Hao this time. Instead, he waved his hand with mysterious confidence and said, "Come here, bring the guard's sword."
Eh.
It seems that it is fate that cannot be defied.
Ren Hao sighed secretly and felt disappointed with the emperor for the first time.
Even just let the emperor do it.
Just when Ren Hao decided to give up, he suddenly remembered the alliance he made with Wen Yan.
If she becomes an official in the court, she will definitely assist her brother well and will also do her best to turn the tide and save the Han Dynasty.
If we leave the emperor alone and allow him to agree, although this will give the emperor a good lesson and warning, letting him know the gap in technical level, but if anything goes wrong in the future, I'm afraid I will have to help the emperor clean up the mess.
Rather than causing trouble for yourself in the future, it is better to nip the trouble in the bud now.
Just as the imperial guards entered the hall with swords in hand, waiting for the emperor to issue an order, Ren Hao stopped them and said, "Wait a minute."
Wen Yan frowned in dissatisfaction, and Zhao Ping'an, who was standing in the hall, also said, "Ren Sikong, you have been blocking His Majesty and me everywhere, and you still say that you are not a traitor planted in the court by the King of Linnan?"
"Your Majesty, I agree with what Prime Minister Zhao said." Chen Lang also echoed this and insisted that Ren Hao was the traitor in the court.
Other ministers also echoed in agreement. If Ren Hao was not a traitor, why would he block the competition for no reason?
How could the weapons forged in this mere monkey land be better than those in the Central Plains?
You have to know that looking at the whole world, the best things and technologies are all in the Central Plains.
Looking at the ministers in the court acting as if the Celestial Empire is unsurpassed, they are simply hopeless and ignorant to the extreme.
As the saying goes, good words can hardly persuade a damned ghost.
Seeing that all the ministers agreed that Ren Hao was the King of Linnan's traitor, Wen Yan was very angry.
No matter how capable Ren Hao is, there is no way he could be a traitor planted in the court by the King of Linnan.
"You all shut up."
"Ren Aiqing is a rare pillar of the court. How could he be a traitor?"
"If any of you dare to call him a traitor again, don't blame me for being rude."
Wen Yan slapped the imperial desk several times, and the hall instantly became quiet and silent.
"Mr. Ren, what's wrong with you now?" Wen Yan asked.
"Your Majesty, since you have decided to decide the matter of changing the land and enfeoffment by sword competition, I have a treasure in my mansion. I would like to use this treasure to compete with Peng Wen on your behalf."
"Peng Wen claims that the sword in his hand is extremely sharp and can cut iron like mud, and the treasures in my mansion are indestructible." Ren Hao said at the end and glanced at Peng Wen.
Peng Wen was a little frightened by Ren Hao's look and felt uneasy.
"What treasure is it?" Wen Yan asked with immediate interest.
"This thing is a piece of glass." Ren Hao said frankly without hiding anything.
Glass also exists in this era but it is very rare and not as pure and transparent as it will be in the future.
The glass of this era was used for ornamental purposes and was considered a rare item.
Glass?
All the ministers in the court were confused.
Although many ministers present did not know what glass was, His Majesty, as a minister of the first rank, knew what His Majesty was.
Can this thing be called indestructible?
I'm afraid this isn't meant to be funny.
Even Peng Wen suddenly laughed, thinking that he had been nervous for nothing.
How could something as fragile as glass be compared with the long sword made of fine steel in his hand?
This is simply like throwing an egg against a rock.
What's more, Peng Wen even began to suspect whether Ren Hao was a traitor planted in the court by the King of Linnan.
"Ren Hao, you still say that you are not a traitor? Anyone with a sound mind would not take out a piece of fragile glass and let the sword cut it." Zhao Ping'an jumped out immediately to point the finger at Ren Hao, regardless of what the emperor had said before.
Censor Chen hesitated and finally said nothing.
The other ministers were afraid of what the emperor had said before, so they didn't say anything.
Wen Yan frowned and suddenly felt a little unsure.
Why not take out a piece of glass?
How can I favor you? Even if you are not a traitor, you are definitely one by taking out such a thing.
"My dear Ren, you can't joke like that. How can a treasure as fragile as glass be indestructible?" Wen Yan said to Ren Haopu.
