Chapter 204: The General Drinks Horses

"Hmph, it's all wine bags and rice bags, all wine bags and rice bags, and the question of a general drinking horses will stump you doctors from the country?" Li Zheng swept all the things on the dragon case to the ground, and looked at the group of ministers kneeling under the court with anger in his eyes.

Hearing the emperor's questioning, these officials knelt on the ground and trembled, not daring to look up at Li Zheng's face.

Dr. Xu Hongdao, a doctor of Guozijian, looked at his colleagues around him, and everyone was kneeling tremblingly: "Your Majesty, the problems of the envoys of the Jin State are unheard of, but if you give the ministers some days, the ministers should be able to calculate what route is the most time-saving!" ”

Li Zheng quietly looked at Xu Hongdao, who was kneeling on the ground, "How many days can you solve it?" ”

"Three...... Not seven days. Xu Hongdao said a conservative time, and even then he could not guarantee that he would solve the problem.

"Seven days? A group of waste, in vain my big dragon boasts of the heavenly kingdom, a small number problem actually takes seven days to solve, this is only the first problem, the next one will take fifteen days, a month or even half a year? Where does my face exist, and where will the face of the court be? ”

"The ministers are incompetent, please forgive your majesty."

Li Zheng ignored the Confucian minister of the Guozijian who was kneeling on the ground and looked at Wei Yong, the left minister: "Wei Aiqing, you have always been resourceful, you may solve the general of the envoy of the Jin State to drink horses?" ”

Wei Yong was stunned for a moment and immediately held the Chao Wat and went out of the ranks: "Back to Your Majesty, the minister has also been familiar with the nine chapters of arithmetic, and has not heard of the general's counting topic of drinking horses, the minister is guilty, and he has the Holy Trust of His Majesty!" Please punish Your Majesty. ”

"Tong Aiqing, it is said that Jiangnan Dangyang Academy is the best talent in the world, but you have been singing all the way to enter the imperial court with the best talent, I don't know if you have a solution?"

Tong Sansi shook his head slightly: "Back to Your Majesty, the minister is proficient in the Four Books and Five Classics, and he has dabbled in various miscellaneous studies, but he is not very proficient in arithmetic, please forgive Your Majesty." ”

Li Zheng's expression is getting worse and worse, and the two prime ministers have no choice, are they really going to be embarrassed by the questions raised by the Jin State Mission?

"Ladies and gentlemen, who has a way to solve this problem, I am willing to allow his official to be promoted to one level and knighted!" Li Zheng had to use inducement to get the ministers to solve the problem.

The civil and military officials were all stunned, obviously they didn't expect the emperor to promise such a big reward, and the official promotion would be even if he was promoted to the next level, after all, as long as he stayed up for two years, he would always be upgraded, but the knighthood would make people moved, who didn't know the importance of the title, it was a title for the benefit of future generations.

However, the richer the reward, the greater the risk, and if you can't solve the problem of the general's drinking horses, you will also suffer the wrath of the emperor.

The civil and military ministers of the Manchu Dynasty looked left and right at each other, and no one dared to stand up.

"Xia Aiqing, you are a veteran of the two dynasties, and you have seen the most extensive things, and you can't solve the problem of a general drinking horses?"

Imperial Historian Xia Gongming was stunned for a moment, and he never thought that His Majesty would ask a question about the counting of Imperial Historians who supervised hundreds of officials.

"Back to Your Majesty, the minister is incompetent and can't solve this problem."

"Prince, where are you? Didn't you usually say that Jiang Guozijian's books had already been flipped through? Can you solve this problem? ”

The prince's expression was tight, and he really wanted to show himself in front of his father, but he really couldn't understand why the general had to take the shortest route and save the most time, isn't this sick? But he didn't dare to show it.

"Back to my father, my sons are incompetent." After speaking, he looked at the brothers around him, and usually wanted to compete with him for the favor of his father, but today they all stood as steadily as a stake in the distance, motionless.

"Your Majesty, the minister has something to say." Wu Guogong Wan Buhai stood up.

Li Zheng's face was happy, could it be that a problem that could not be solved by a cadre of Wenchen Wan Buhai and a martial artist could not be calculated, but when he thought about the problem of the general drinking horses, Li Zheng secretly wondered if he happened to fall into the hands of Wan Buhai, after all, Wan Buhai is the boss of the generals, and he should know better how to walk in the most time-saving.

"Wu Guogong quickly speak, do you have a solution?"

The corners of Wu Guogong's mouth twitched: "Back to Your Majesty, the minister has no solution!" ”

Li Zheng frowned: "Oh? So what does Wan Aiqing want to say? ”

"Your Majesty, the minister thinks that he can't solve the problem, so he solves the problem, the envoys of the Jin State are clearly unrighteous to fight without declaring the war, and there is also the problem of the general drinking horses, how can the generals drink the horses themselves, they all send personal guards, the ministers see that the envoys of the Jin State just want to find fault, it is better for the minister to lead a group of guards to send them back to their hometown in the name of exterminating the bandits in the city."

Well, he is worthy of being a military general, his temperament is hot, and he doesn't think about how to solve the problem, but plans to solve the problem, so that the problem will be solved.

That's right, and that's the truth, but it doesn't seem to be a matter of solving the problem for the envoys to do such a thing, but to set off the swords of the two countries.

As soon as Wan Buhai's voice fell, a group of military generals became agitated.

"Your Majesty, the minister thinks that Wu Guogong's words are reasonable, what kind of bullshit general drinks horses, does the general drink horses himself?"

"Your Majesty, what Wu Guogong said is right, you are going to prepare to discuss the war, and that general will go to drink horses, isn't this a dereliction of duty? The envoys of the Jin State just wanted to find fault, but they didn't have to say that they didn't need to go out of the country, the ministers were willing to lead the guards to get them and ensure that they were silent. ”

Li Zheng's face darkened, he couldn't imagine that these generals planned to kill these envoys, although he also wanted to do so, what kind of bullshit generals drank horses, didn't they have enough to eat? While preparing for the march, how can there be time to release the horses.

But I can only think about it, if I really want to agree with Wan Buhai's advice, I am afraid that the two countries will not be able to avoid fighting each other.

The two armies are still fighting each other, let alone peacetime exchange missions.

Song Aiqing, the secretary of the Ministry of War, Ye Aiqing, the secretary of the Criminal Department, and Qin Aiqing, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites: "Don't you have a solution?" ”

Song Yi looked at his colleagues around him in embarrassment and had to stand up: "Back to Your Majesty, the minister is incompetent." ”

"The minister is incompetent."

Li Zheng stood up from the dragon chair with a gloomy face: "Okay, great, all the civil officials are Confucian scholars who have read poetry and books, and all of them are officials elected by the top three jinshi and the second class jinshi, don't you usually boast that you are very powerful?" The question of a general drinking horses will stump all of you, what kind of face do you have to stand above the court to share your worries for me, what worries do you share, I see that you are all incompetent. ”

The civil and military ministers of the Manchu Dynasty were all so frightened that they knelt down: "Your Majesty is angry." ”

"The envoy of the Kingdom of Jin gave a deadline of a few days?"

Xu Hongdao said tremblingly: "Three days." ”

"Dr. Guozijian listens to the order, and you are limited to solve the problem within three days, otherwise you will .............."

"Your Majesty..........."

"Retreat."

Zhou Fei, the chief manager of the inner house, immediately shook off the dust: "Retreat." ”

In the imperial study, Li Zheng put down the brush and folded a letter: "Zhou Fei, rushed to Dangyang Academy day and night to hand over the letter to the teacher. ”
