Chapter 163 Wu Yunwan

Following Prime Minister Chai Jiliang's voice, the Great Wu Dynasty Hall was extremely quiet at this time.

All the officials looked at Chai Jiliang standing in the front with disbelief. Obviously, no one expected that Chai Jiliang would persuade Emperor Wu to end the war.

After Emperor Wu ascended the throne, he has been waging wars abroad. Now the area of ​​the Great Wu Dynasty is one-third larger than before. These are the achievements of Emperor Wu, and they are also things that Emperor Wu always likes to brag about.

Now, someone dared to stand up and persuade him not to start a war with the outside world, and even said that the Great Wu Dynasty was in danger of overthrowing. Isn't this just death?

Although Chai Jiliang is the prime minister, in the Great Wu Dynasty, the prime minister is not a stable position. Since Emperor Wu came to the throne, it is unknown how many prime ministers have been solved. Then set up the position of prime minister.

Chai Jiliang's head is really iron!
The war between Dawu and Daxia had just begun, yet he dared to jump out and persuade Emperor Wu to end the war.

How could Emperor Wu agree to end the war? Not long after the war started, Dawu occupied two counties in Daxia.

This obviously means that Daxia is going to die. For a king who is obsessed with land expansion, this is a very good opportunity. How could he stop at this time.

At this time, Emperor Wu, who was wearing a black gold silk-trimmed dragon robe on the dragon platform, was staring at Chai Jiliang under the dragon platform.

The atmosphere in the main hall seemed extremely dull, and all the officials under the dragon platform were sweating non-stop. At this moment, the sweltering air made it difficult for people to breathe.

After an unknown amount of time, Emperor Wu snorted and said, "Chai Jiliang, I see that you have been the prime minister for several years, and you are a little confused about where you are."

"Since I came to the throne, I have laid down so much land for future generations. In your eyes, Chai Jiliang, I have become a tyrant who doesn't care about the lives of the people and only knows how to start wars?"

Hearing Emperor Wu's words, Chai Jiliang continued neither humble nor overbearing: "Your Majesty has laid countless lands for future generations. This is indeed His Majesty's achievement. At the beginning, the common people also praised His Majesty, but the wars every year have made Da Wu The common people are tired of it, no matter how much land His Majesty lays down, the common people will not have any smiles on their faces, His Majesty is walking too fast, and the common people can no longer keep up with His Majesty's pace."

"Your Majesty, it's time to rest!"

"You need rest, the Great Wu Dynasty needs rest, and the common people need rest even more!"

Hearing Chai Jiliang's words, Emperor Wu sneered, and seeing that the expression on Emperor Wu's face became more and more gloomy, Geng Chengguang, Shangshu of the Ministry of Rites, stood up and said, "Master Chai, you must have accepted the benefits of the Great Xia Dynasty. , That's why you stood up and persuaded His Majesty to end the war?"

"Now, who doesn't know that Great Xia is full of internal conflicts, and its strength has been greatly weakened. At this time, the immortal Great Xia may not have such an opportunity in the future."

Chai Jiliang said coldly: "Geng Shangshu, I'm afraid you are the one who received the money. I have heard that you have close contacts with the Chu family in Daxia. Every year, the Chu family will give you many gifts. The emperor has long wanted to destroy the Chu family."

"You urged His Majesty to attack Daxia time and time again, disregarding the life and death of the people of Dawu, you know what your intentions are."

Geng Chengguang immediately said: "Mr. Chai, don't slander people's innocence! Everything must be based on evidence!"

At this moment, Chai Jiliang was about to say something, but the Emperor Wu on the dragon platform said in a strong voice: "Enough!"

After the words fell, Emperor Wu looked at Chai Jiliang, and said indifferently: "Chai Xiang is in poor health, and he will take good care of himself at home from today onwards. Geng Chengguang will temporarily take over the position of prime minister."

Hearing this, Chai Jiliang immediately bowed and said, "My lord, thank you Your Majesty for your kindness."

Emperor Wu didn't bother to continue talking nonsense, he got up directly, waved his sleeves and said, "Retire!"

Then Emperor Wu left the Lizheng Hall.

As soon as he left, some officials gloated and made sarcastic remarks.

"Master Chai, why do you say you are doing this? Now it's over, I've lost all my official positions."

"Lord Chai, I think His Majesty is right. You have been the prime minister for a few years, and you don't know your position."

"My Dawu's army is about to hit Daxia's capital, and Mr. Chai actually jumped out to oppose His Majesty. If it is said that Daxia's money is confiscated, this official will not believe it."

"Master Chai, you'd better go back and recuperate well. It's best to ask a doctor to check your brain, hahaha."

……

Hearing the cynicism from the officials, Chai Jiliang didn't take it seriously at all, and he walked directly outside the hall.

This is the case in Dawu. The prime minister is just a worker. If he has power in his hands, he does have some power.

But in terms of how much power he has, from the officials who laughed at Chai Jiliang just now, it can be seen that the little power in his hands is nothing at all.

His power can be deprived at any time, so not many officials in the court are afraid of him as a prime minister.

……

Dawu.

The imperial palace, Qingyun Palace.

A woman in a long purple dress was sitting on the couch with her slender legs crossed.

The woman looks so beautiful, with a beautiful face and a moony appearance, with icy muscles and bones, and her body seems to exude a holy light.

At this time, she was holding a bamboo slip in her hand, and her eyes were all focused on the bamboo slip.

At this time, a servant girl entered the hall and said, "Princess, Prime Minister Chai is here."

The woman said softly, "Let him in."

The woman's voice is mature and full of charm, which makes people feel like they are bathed in the spring breeze.

Soon, Chai Jiliang entered the hall.

"I pay homage to the Eldest Princess."

Wu Yunwan let out a "huh" and then asked, "I don't know why Chai Xiang came to Qingyun Palace in this palace today?"

Chai Jiliang said directly: "Your Highness, I advised His Majesty to end the war with Daxia today, which annoyed His Majesty, and was finally deprived of his position by His Majesty. Now he is no longer a prime minister."

Hearing Chai Jiliang's words, Wu Yun raised her beautiful eyes, and then couldn't help chuckling.

"Let my father end the war? Master Chai, you really love to joke."

Speaking of this, Wu Yunwan stared at Chai Jiliang, and then said: "Tell me, what do you want to do with me, is it possible that you plan to let me persuade my father to end the war?"

"If Lord Chai thinks so, then please come back, Lord Chai."

Chai Jiliang immediately said: "Princess, you have misunderstood. I am looking for you because I hope you can use your relationship to make Emperor Yue pay attention to the situation in the north."

Hearing Chai Jiliang's words, Wu Yunwan was immediately confused.

"north?"

"The relationship between Bengong and Yuehuang is good, but why should I let Yuehuang pay attention to the north?"

Chai Jiliang said: "There are [-] heavy cavalry from Daxia in the north. If these [-] heavy cavalry borrowed from Dayue, it is likely to directly cut off the retreat of the Dawu army."

Hearing Chai Jiliang's words, Wu Yunwan still smiled.

"Master Chai is referring to the [-] heavy cavalry in the hands of the Northern King of Great Xia?"

Wu Yunwan is not an ordinary princess, she has a lot of power in her hands, which makes her very familiar with the affairs of the major dynasties and countries, and she also knows what Chai Jiliang said about the [-] heavy cavalry.

Chai Jiliang said, "Exactly."

Wu Yunwan then said disapprovingly: "Lord Chai, don't worry, the 20 heavy cavalry cannot use Dayue. In order to prevent the barbarians from going south, Dayue sent [-] soldiers to go north."

"Let's not talk about the Northern King's excuse of the Dayue Dynasty. The Yuehuang will definitely not agree. Even if they pass through the land of the Dayue Dynasty quietly, the 20 troops will stop them."
