Chapter 239

The location shown on the map is not Daming, but An Nanguo.

Cao Nai's heart trembled suddenly, he seemed to understand today's topic, and at the same time, he also understood why the emperor named the Ministry of Rites and the Ministry of War to be present.

No, didn't I persuade you to do something serious?
Why do you have to fight as soon as you come up...

When King Jing'an left the capital, there were many voices of opposition.

After all, in An Nanguo, there is a lesson learned from Emperor Taizong.

It is possible to fight, but the loss is too great!

Zhu Qizhen's expression was flat, and he pointed to the map of Annan Kingdom and said, "What do you think about the war between Annan Kingdom and Champa Kingdom?"

Everyone knows it well, what do you think?
The maps are all out, and you still ask us what we think!
Cao Nai was about to speak, but was preempted by Tang Xinggu.

"Qi Zou the emperor, I think that the Annan Kingdom has always been disobedient to the king's land, arrogant and arrogant, and bold and reckless, so we should send troops to attack it!"

"What Tang Yushi said is too extreme!" Cao Nai couldn't help but said, "As the saying goes, the first is to attack the enemy, the second is to attack the enemy, the second is to attack the army, and the next is to attack the city. Fighting is not a child's play, you have to think twice before acting! "

Tang Xinggu was neither humble nor overbearing, and even had some righteous words, saying: "When the officials were studying, this book said, is there any king in the world, and the king's ministers on the shore of the land. The current emperor is the son of heaven. The black and white words are always That's right? The book also said that there are no two suns in the sky, and there are no two masters in man, but King Annan actually calls himself the emperor, so there are actually two emperors in this world?"

Cao Nai frowned and said, "You can't say that. Annan is a small country, and it doesn't understand etiquette. It's ordered to order. How can it be so easy to use swords?"

"Mr. Cao's words are wrong!"

Tang Xinggu shook his head and said: "Everyone may wish to think about it, why did Emperor Xuanzong return Annan?"

"Naturally, the loss is huge, and it cannot make ends meet."

"Why is the loss huge?"

"Annan's domestic rebellion continues, this is a bottomless pit!"

"Why the rebellion?"

"Of course...it's because..." Cao Nai said with a dark face, "Tang Yushi, what exactly do you want to say, just say it, there is no need to show off in front of the emperor!"

Tang Xinggu smiled lightly, and said: "The answer is obvious, that is, Annan is not educated, and someone secretly incited them. They thought that my Ming Dynasty was thousands of miles away, and there were Mongols watching from the north. They would not dare to invest too much manpower and material resources in Annan. Now that the chaos in the north has been eliminated, what is there to shout about in Annan?"

Cao Nai was speechless for a while, although Tang Xinggu was very annoying, but there was nothing wrong with what he said.

At the beginning, Emperor Xuanzong gave up Annan, mainly to restore national power and recuperate.

Because during Taizong's period, the Southern Expedition and the Northern Expedition, sailing to the West, and compiling grand ceremonies had already exhausted the national power. As a last resort, they could only shrink their defenses and start with the people.

Now it is very different. There is no more Bei Yuan in the world, and the pirates along the coast and the White Lotus Sect have also been eradicated. The Ming Dynasty has no worries inside and no troubles outside. Why can't we beat Annan again?
At this time, Bei Lin said: "Tang Yushi is right. The people of Annan proclaim themselves emperors. This is a disgraceful ritual. This alone is enough!"

Cao Nai glanced at him helplessly, and said to himself that you should go to build a competitive machine, and stop messing around here!

Seeing that the situation was not right, Kuang Ye stood up and said, "Your Majesty, the old minister suggests that this matter should be discussed in the long term. My Ming Dynasty is a kingdom of heaven and a state of etiquette. We cannot just turn swords and soldiers at every turn. Such a thing is disrespectful!"

Everyone was discussing fiercely, and Wynn came to the hall.

"Your Majesty, An Nanguo's envoy Chen Liulin is asking to see you!"

Zhu Qizhen raised his head and said, "Xuan!"

Since King Jing'an went to Annan as an envoy, this Annan envoy has come to see him every day.

However, Zhu Qizhen was too lazy to talk to him, and basically never saw him.

Today is different, because Zhu Qiyu has already led Shenjiying to sea, and this battle is about to start, so it doesn't matter if we meet.

Cao Nai said: "The ministers will take their leave first."

"No need!" Zhu Qizhen waved his hand, "You are right here, accompany me to meet this Annan envoy!"

Everyone had no choice but to stop, Belin's mind turned quickly, and she had already put away the map on the desk.

A while later, Chen Liulin went up to the hall to have an audience.

This person was wearing An Nanguo's dress, and he said with tears in his eyes: "I have seen His Majesty the Emperor of Ming Dynasty. I am in the capital and abide by the etiquette and laws of the Ming Dynasty. I am walking on eggshells every day. I never dare to offend anyone. But for some reason, I am angry. Tianyan was destroyed, and the kingdom of the upper kingdom suddenly conquered the kingdom of the subordinates. The kingdom of Annan is a vassal state of the Ming Dynasty. It pays tribute to the Ming Dynasty every year without interruption. The two countries have always had good relations. This is unkind!"

Cao Nai couldn't help asking, "Why did Envoy Chen say that?"

After all, Zheng Annan is just an idea, and it hasn't been put into action yet, so why did you come here?

Chen Liulin looked aggrieved, and said: "The minister received the king's handwritten letter, the King of Jing'an County of the Ming Dynasty gathered [-] soldiers and horses in the area of ​​Yunnan and Guizhou. With Duke Qian as the vanguard, the army has already marched into Annan!"

"What did you say?"

Cao Nai's jaw dropped in shock, the fight has already started ahead?

We don't know anything!

what's the situation?
Suddenly, he understood why when the emperor summoned everyone, he directly showed a map of An Nanguo.

For such a big matter, you should discuss it with us!

Even if I'm not the chief minister of the cabinet, at least I'm still a veteran of the three dynasties, right?
The previous battle has been fought, and we don't know anything. This...is very embarrassing!
He looked at Zhu Qizhen suspiciously, but Zhu Qizhen looked at Chen Liulin. This person had dark skin and looked thin. Although there was panic in his words, what he said was neither humble nor overbearing.

"I heard that your King Annan, Li Sicheng, proclaimed himself the Son of Heaven?"

"This……"

Chen Liulin thought for a while: "I don't know about this matter."

"You don't know? I also heard that the driving of King Annan is exactly the same as mine!"

Sweat dripped from Chen Liulin's forehead, and he said: "There is a way, to punish without teaching is to abuse, if the country has made a mistake, His Majesty should first warn, if the country does not change, His Majesty raises troops, it is justifiable, but he sent troops rashly... ..."

Zhu Qizhen suddenly became angry, do I still need a reason to hit you?

Even if you, King Annan, don't overstep, I've long disliked you, occupying such a good geographical location in Nanyang...

No, I, Daming, am a teacher of justice, not for the purpose of grabbing territory, but for the sake of getting rid of the bad breath back then!
"Over the years, I have rewarded Annan more generously than other countries, but your king calls himself the emperor. It is said that he also calls me the Northern Dynasty. Do you think I am a fool?"

"No, I dare not...!"

Chen Liulin hurriedly explained: "I came here because I hope... I hope that the two countries can restore the old relationship..."

Zhu Qizhen sneered and said: "It's fine if you want to rebuild it, it's easy, let your king come to me in person to plead guilty, maybe I will forgive him!"
