Chapter 115 Chapter 110 Five Chapters

"Chen Lianghan, Governor of Xuanjing Prefecture, has an audience—"

Wei Chengyun's voice sounded again in the hall.

Chen Lianghan at the entrance of the main hall trembled in fright when he heard the voice, then hurriedly arranged his clothes to ensure that his clothes were neat, and then walked into the main hall.

As soon as he entered the hall, Chen Lianghan saw Qi Bu kneeling on the ground, not daring to vent his breath.

He thumped in his heart, feeling a bad premonition.

But he still walked forward quickly and bowed his hands in salute.

"My humble minister Chen Lianghan, I have met His Majesty."

Now he doesn't even dare to speak to the Governor of Kyoto.

But the emperor obviously couldn't let him go so easily, and said with a hint of anger in his tone.

"Chen Lianghan, you are so brave, how dare you wantonly arrest innocent people?"

The emperor deliberately added the word "innocent".

Chen Lianghan thumped in fright, and knelt down with Qi Bu.

"Your Majesty, this... this is what Lord Qi ordered Weichen to do."

At this time, we can only push everything on Qi Bu.

After all, if you die as a fellow Taoist, you will never die as a poor Taoist.

"Oh, he told you to do this, so you do it, and if he told you to hang yourself, do you want to go or not?"

asked the emperor, obviously dissatisfied.

Does he still have the emperor in his eyes?

Chen Lianghan just wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, not daring to speak anymore.

But he glanced at Qi Bu who was also kneeling on the ground, and felt that he should explain, otherwise he would be finished today.

"Your Majesty, I didn't know that those people were innocent. It was Master Qi and I who said that those people wantonly spread rumors, which would have a bad influence on the court."

"Wei Chen then sent someone to arrest those common people, Wei Chen didn't know that this was just Master Qi's selfish intention."

The emperor lowered his eyes and looked at the two kneeling below. These two people were really the same.

I just don't know who will intercede for these two people.

His fingers tapped on the dragon chair, but there was no sound, but Chen Lianghan and Qi Bu felt that the hand was tapping on their hearts.

Let them have a feeling of being out of breath.

Obviously they usually look incompetent, but today's emperor makes all of them feel different.

But it seems that the emperor is still the same emperor, and his momentum has not changed, but it just feels different from before.

But everyone looked at the two kneeling on the ground, and none of them wanted to step forward to intercede for them.

Two brainless people are not worth their effort.

If they are down, they will just put their own people in there.

Whether it is the Governor of Kyoto or the Minister of the Household Department, they are all important official positions.

Chen Lianghan and Qi Bu knelt on the ground and shivered, knowing that they were doomed today.

The emperor waved his hand and asked for the two of them to be taken down.

Although both Gu Hongyuan and Jiang Zhao impeached them, the emperor still needed to send someone to find out what happened.

The emperor doesn't have much real power in his hands. If he is convicted on the spot, these ministers will definitely speak out against him.

They will not allow their rights to be taken back, even if it is a little bit of decision-making power.

After the imperial guards took the two of them down, the emperor wanted to announce his retreat.

But Jiang Zhao finally met the emperor, and she hasn't said what she wanted to say.

Jiang Zhao hurriedly cupped his hands and saluted.

"Your Majesty, I still have something to say."

The emperor was a little curious, does Jiang Zhao have any evidence to put those two people to death?

"Say."

Jiang Zhao raised his head and spoke out the strategy he had been pondering for several days.

"Your Majesty, when I was playing in the outskirts of the city, I met two refugees who fled from the border, and knew that the border barbarians invaded again."

The emperor didn't expect that what Jiang Zhao said was actually this matter.

His eyes lit up, as Jiang Zhao said, there should be some good strategy to offer.

The barbarians would invade the border every winter and rob the people on the border of winter supplies, making the people on the border miserable.

Lord Zhen Guo didn't expect Jiang Zhao to mention this matter, so he quickly took this opportunity to ask for orders again.

"Your Majesty, I am willing to lead troops to meet the Xiongnu."

Cheng Wudi, the mighty general standing behind Zhen Guogong in the ranks of military officers, stood up and said in a low voice.

"Your Majesty, the barbarians have been harassing me to cross the border every year. I should have beaten him a son of a bitch. If I had sent troops earlier, why would the people on the border wander to the capital?"

To use his words, he should dispatch troops as soon as possible, and beat up those bastards until they don't even know their mothers.

Prime Minister Du Yuan glanced at him, stood up and said.

"War, go out, and once you go out, you need money for military pay, money for rations, and money to appease the families of soldiers who died in battle."

"Now the treasury is empty, where is the money to go out!"

As soon as Du Yuan opened his mouth, Zhao Dang also stood up and said.

"Your Majesty, the people of the world have fought hard for a long time. If they go out again, I am afraid that the people will complain. At that time, the people will not be able to live. I hope Your Majesty will think twice."

Grand Tutor Jiang Ding also did not support the campaign.

"Your Majesty, the current treasury is empty and not enough to support the expedition of the army. My Tianyu Dynasty still focuses on defense."

Cheng Wudi was upset when he heard what they said.

"A bunch of cowards, they're all coming to your door, but you're still trying to defend yourself here."

Jiang Ding was not angry when he heard his ridicule, but continued to speak.

"Your Majesty, the current national treasury is really empty, and it is unrealistic to go on a campaign. If you insist on conquest, you will have to wait a few more years until the treasury is full, and then fight again. Tianyu will surely win."

Jiang Ding's words made people's blood boil.

But Cheng Wudi's brain circuit is simple, he doesn't care about the treasury or not, he just wants to fight.

Lying at home all day, his bones are going to be soft.

"After all, it's not a bunch of cowards, but they dare not fight."

"I don't understand, and you don't need to go to the battlefield, what is there to be afraid of?"

Du Yuan snorted coldly: "The courage of a man!"

"Who are you talking about?"

"It's you, Cheng Piff."

"Say it again, believe it or not, I beat you so hard that you wouldn't even recognize your mother."

……

The emperor looked at the civil and military officials who were quarreling again below, and felt a little headache.

Jiang Zhao looked at the group of people curiously. It turned out that the quarrel between the ministers written in the history books was like this scene.

Both parties are about to start working.

But after hearing this in the hall, she understood the situation.

The military officer can't wait to go to war immediately, but the civil servant doesn't allow it, let alone the treasury.

As for the emperor, it looks like he wants to fight, so it's best to go to the army himself to establish prestige in the army and pave the way for him to take power in the future.

But going on an expedition now would be too taxing for the people and money, and the civil servants did not want the military attache group to benefit, nor did they want the emperor to take power.

But letting the barbarians play disco on the border is not an option.

Jiang Zhao cupped his hands and said to the emperor.

"Your Majesty, the treasury is empty, we can support war with war."
