Take the hospital back to ancient times

Chapter 284

The palace is not concerned about the epidemic situation in Xijiaofang now.

To be exact, it's not that he didn't care, but he didn't care, because there were bigger troubles waiting for the ruling and opposition parties of the Great Zhou Dynasty.

As I said before, Chen Buer was very happy when he set fire to Xijin Mansion and Suzhou Port. As a result, he accidentally burned the main fiscal revenue of the Liao Kingdom.

Liao has no money, what should we do?So I stared at Dazhou in the south and asked for more coins.

Therefore, Yelu Dedu, the ambassador of the Liao Kingdom, has been staying in Bianliang. After all, the two countries need to argue with each other for such a major event, and there is something to be said, but the patience of the Liao people is slowly losing.

The weather in the 25th year of Yuanjing was so strange. Not only was there a drought in the north of the Great Zhou Dynasty, but also droughts occurred in the southern part of the Liao Kingdom and the bordering areas of the Xixia Kingdom.

The grain was not harvested, and the fodder for cattle and horses was starved to death in large numbers. The lives of the people of Liao and Xixia could not go on. At this time, even Xixia had Zhou Guo's idea.

Both countries regard Dazhou as an ATM, and the password is: "If you don't give me money, I will beat you."

Xixia is a small country, but it has always been called "Pingtouge". Although the strength is not as good as yours, everyone will die in the war, even if they die, they will bite you.

The iron kite, a heavy cavalry unit of Xixia, can make Zhou Jun cry with a single charge.

There is no way, Da Zhou is just so weak, he will always be passively defending, and will never take the initiative to attack.If you lose, you have to pay compensation, and if you win, you still have to pay compensation. How can this be reasonable?
In fact, the Xixia Kingdom rescued their big brother first. After all, whoever has the biggest fist these days is the boss.

The Liao Kingdom and the Zhou Kingdom are large in size, and they can call each other the Southern Kingdom and the Northern Kingdom, and agree on what kind of brothers the two countries are, at least they are equals.

But your little Xixia does not have the qualifications, so in name Xixia is subject to the Liao Kingdom, (whether or not you accept it in your heart is another matter.)
As a result, Liao Guo saw that the little brother was asking for money from him, and he spread his hands, saying that asking for money is not a life-threatening thing, and I am still asking Zhou Guo for money.

Of course the Xixia Kingdom is quitting. Usually you drink mine, but you won’t spit it out at critical moments?When Brother Pingtou loses his temper, the Liao Kingdom also wants to let it go.

So the sinister Liao people thought of an idea at this time,
Aren't you, Zhou Guo, trying to argue?Don't you want to increase the old coins?We are a country of brothers, so it's not good to completely tear your face, but I can encourage "Brother Flathead" to do it with you.

So under the instigation and orders of the Liao Kingdom, the Xixia Kingdom began to gather troops to prepare for trouble.

The first threatening letter from Xixia Emperor Li Yuan was sent to Bianliang, which means that you Dazhou will either give you money or food, or I will call your Yan'an Mansion, and if you don't let me pick it up yourself.

At the same time, it also emphasized that they will cross the Yellow River, take advantage of the Datong Mansion of the Liao Kingdom, directly attack Yanmen Pass, and approach Taiyuan Mansion.

Yan'an Mansion is a poor place, there is not much oil and water to scrape the ground, but Taiyuan Mansion is different. It is an important town in the north, a commercial center, and it needs money and food, and there is no shortage of iron pots.

As soon as this threatening letter was received, the ruling and opposition parties of Da Zhou were shocked.

Being threatened by the Liao Kingdom is already aggrieved enough, but now you are threatened by a little Xixia?

Zichen Hall, on the court hall.

Emperor Yuan Jing still sat on top like a clay bodhisattva, with neither sad nor happy expression, let alone any anger.

The military officers below all had their noses crooked.

Shen Bowen, deputy envoy of the Privy Council, was the first to stand up:
"Officials, where is the threat of the Xixia Kingdom to put us in the Great Zhou? A small country with a population of only two to three million dares to make a noise. I think that I should teach them a lesson, and by the way, I can show the Liao Kingdom Look, we are not afraid to fight."

As soon as these words came out, a thousand layers of waves were stirred up in the court, and everyone was talking about it.

Especially the several bigwigs in the military, all of them were blushing and thick-necked, and scolded Xi Xia for not being a son of man.

This is the case with the affairs of the DPRK and China. Some people call for beatings, and some people will definitely call for beatings or not.

No, Shenzhi Zhengshi Zhou Yucheng stood up:

"Fight, how to fight? Now the Liao Kingdom is still eyeing it. This small Xixia country obviously wants to take advantage of the fire. If it encounters the Liaoxia Alliance, then my dynasty will fight on two fronts. May I ask you generals, do you have the ability to fight against it?" Enemy outside?"

"Cough cough~~~"

Several generals rubbed their noses in embarrassment. It's okay to fight Xixia, but if you really want to fight Liao, how can Da Zhou have any chance of winning?
Chen Buer's grandfather, Lu Zhixiao, who is also the deputy commander of the Forbidden Army, also stood up:

"Then what Master Zhou meant was that we obediently pay tribute to the Xixia Kingdom? They want money for money, food for food, because we can't support the possible two-front battle? It seems that Master Zhou's courage has been frightened to death .”

Hahaha, the military officers laughed together again.

Chai Ziyun stood in the first place, seeing that Prime Minister Cui's running dog was a bit of a capitulator, and he didn't want to fight, so he was going to do the opposite.

"Reporting to the official family, I think Mr. Shen is right. The Xixia Congress jumped out. It was obviously instigated by the Liao Kingdom. They said in the letter that they would use the Liao Kingdom to attack Taiyuan Mansion. The Liao Kingdom did not say a word, which clearly shows that The Liao Kingdom acquiesced.

So what I mean is that now that the Liao Kingdom does not want to turn against us and has scruples, we should strictly reject the blackmail from the Xixia Kingdom and fight back fiercely. "

"Okay, Cheng Guogong is right!!!"

Upon hearing this, many princelings and military officers clapped their hands and cheered.

Cui Miyuan's eyes twitched, Zhao Hongguang, Minister of the Household Department, got the signal and immediately stepped out of the shift:

"Returning to the official house, the finances of the household department are very difficult now, and I am afraid it will be difficult to support the war against Xixia. The minister's suggestion is to just send them hundreds of thousands of shi of grain. It's not worth it."

As soon as these words came out, Wu Xinlin, the censor of Zuodu, couldn't help standing up:

"Master Zhao is easy to calculate. It costs money to fight wars, and then you can spend money to buy peace? The lands and mountains laid down by the ancestors, and the wealth created by the people of the Great Zhou, just give up like this? Besides, we can't fight in the Great Zhou, and the people of Xixia Can you fight a war?"

For a while, there was another noise in Zichen Hall.

Emperor Yuan Jing looked at the ministers below, these civil servants and military generals, and he just sighed slightly in his heart.

Before the Liao Kingdom asked for an increase in the annual currency, and today they have not given a regulation, and now the Xixia Kingdom has come to join in the fun again, but there is still no result.

Especially civil servant groups, who only care about fighting for power and profit for themselves, how can they still have national interests in mind?Where is the face of the court?
When you encounter something, you just procrastinate, but can you procrastinate through the first day of junior high school and the fifteenth day of junior high school?
