"Your Excellency, I don't agree with you!" Wilson retorted, "From what I have seen with my own eyes, the Great Zhou Emperor is an enterprising monarch, and he will not be indifferent to the fact that a vassal state is attacked by the Empire. ”

"The Great Zhou Emperor is an enterprising monarch?" The parliamentarian of the main battle faction sneered: "How did I hear that the current Emperor of the Great Zhou is the most famous emperor since the founding of the Great Zhou?" ”

"Where did Your Excellency the Councillor hear these words?" Wilson asked, surprised.

"Naturally, it is in the mouth of the merchants who trade with the Great Zhou!" The parliamentarian of the main war faction said, "There are not one or two merchants who come and go to the Great Zhou in the empire, but these businessmen all say that the Great Zhou Emperor is mediocre and incompetent, greedy for flowers, lustful and ignorant of state affairs.

I also learned from those merchants that the Great Zhou Emperor often did not go to the court for a month or two to govern, haven't you heard of these?

There is also the reform that the Great Zhou Emperor is now carrying out, according to my analysis, the reform of the Great Zhou Emperor this time has violated the interests of all the Great Zhou nobles.

Although the Great Zhou Emperor suppressed the rebellion of the southern nobles, this matter was only the beginning. In the future, I am afraid that more turmoil will break out in Da Zhou.

At that time, how could the Great Zhou Emperor still have the heart to think about Burma?

Therefore, I dare to conclude that the Great Zhou Emperor certainly did not have the energy to deal with the affairs of Burma! ”

After listening to the words of the pro-war legislators, there was a lot of discussion in the parliament, and many people were excited.

Another councillor stood up and said, "I think what Your Excellency said is very reasonable, at this time, even if Da Zhou wants to start a war with the empire, I am afraid that he will not send many troops.

I think the empire can take this opportunity to test the combat effectiveness of the Great Zhou army......"

The congressman Balabala said a lot, and a cold sweat broke out on Wilson's forehead.

Ignoring the sweat from his forehead, Wilson said loudly: "Everyone, you all said how the empire attacked Burma this time, but have you forgotten that the empire has just established trade relations with the Great Zhou.

Should the empire attack Burma at this time, the Great Zhou would definitely cut off trade with the empire.

At that time, I wonder how your Excellencies will feel? ”

"The Great Zhou will not sever trade relations with the Empire!" The main battle faction shook his head and said, "As far as I know, the Great Zhou Emperor is very interested in the machinery of the empire.

If Da Zhou dared to sever trade relations with the Empire, then he would not be able to get any of these machines! ”

"Come on!" Wilson scoffed, "If this really happens, Da Zhou really can't get a machine from the Empire, but it can get it from France and other countries."

But don't forget that France, Prussia and other countries on the mainland have already sent envoys to the Great Zhou.

When the time comes, I'm afraid that the empire will be empty!

What's more, Da Zhou is the most populous and at the same time the richest country in the world. The industrial products of the empire, should they be sold to Da Zhou?

Have you ever considered it, Mr. Parliamentarians? ”

How much profit can be made from silk, tea, porcelain and other items shipped from the Great Zhou. Others don't know, but it doesn't mean that these members of parliament don't know.

And dumping industrial products on Da Zhou, these parliamentarians also have to consider.

You must know that although most of these councilors are from aristocratic backgrounds, Ken himself owns many industrial and mining enterprises.

If normal trade with Da Zhou can be commenced, not only will the empire benefit, but they, the parliamentarians, will also benefit from it, and they will not be impressed.

Therefore, after Wilson said this, many lawmakers were still moved.

The speaker looked at the time and said, "It's almost time, you guys start voting!" ”

"Raise your hand if you are in favor of attacking Burma!"

Seeing that most of the councilors on the field did not raise their hands, Wilson couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

"Raise your hand if you oppose war with Burma!"

As Mr. Speaker's words fell, a small number of people raised their hands.

Finally, Mr. Speaker took the statistics and said: "The total number of participants in this meeting is 323, of which 132 are in favor, 123 are against, and 68 abstain.

The number of people in favor is not more than half, and the meeting is invalid! ”

Hearing Mr. Speaker's words, Wilson couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief.

At the same time, Wilson also understood that as time went on, especially after a better understanding of the Great Zhou, such meetings would be held countless times.

At that time, I don't know what the outcome will be?

Wilson had a faint intuition in his heart: sooner or later, the empire would have to go to war with the Great Zhou!

……

The flowers bloom at two ends, one on each branch.

In the big week, the time has entered October.

Since the departure of the European envoys with a large number of purchased goods, good news has been sent frequently from all parts of the Great Zhou.

First of all, Zhang Guangzhi, the governor of Yunnan and Guizhou, completely suppressed the Miao rebellion, and the policy of changing the land and returning to the river was carried out in an orderly manner.

Soon, all the money and grain collected by the state treasury this year had been counted, totaling 32,830,000 taels of silver.

Last year's tax revenue was less than 10 million taels of silver, but this year it actually exceeded 30 million taels, and the tax revenue increased more than three times at once.

It's just that how many of the ministers are genuinely pleased, it is unknown!

At the same time, Concubine Gao, Concubine Cao, Concubine Yan, and Concubine He also gave birth to princes and princesses successively, which was even more joyful.

Among them, the second prince born to Concubine Gao was named Zhao Han, the third prince born to Concubine Cao was named Zhao Xu, the eldest princess born to Concubine Yan was named Zhao Hairpin, and the second princess born to Concubine He was named Zhao Shu.

The mother is expensive by virtue of the son, although the positions of the noble concubine and the concubine Cao have not been promoted, but since the birth of the baby, the court wives who go to congratulate every day have broken through the threshold of the two bedrooms.

In this regard, Concubine Cao had a headache, but Concubine Gao was proud.

In the court, the father of the noble concubine, the status of Gao Pei, the secretary of the criminal department, has also risen, and there is an endless stream of people who come to take refuge, and there is a tendency to faintly suppress the household department and the official department.

Zhang Lingyang didn't pay attention to this at all.

Li Guangtai, the imperial history of the left capital, was worried about this.

"The second prince has such a strong Yue family, I'm afraid it's a blessing in disguise!" Thinking of the situation of the princes of previous dynasties competing for the crown, Li Guangtai had to worry.

"It's better to defeat some people's wishful thinking earlier!" After thinking about it carefully in his heart, Li Guangtai entangled the imperial history of the Inspectorate and made a lot of twists and turns to Zhang Lingyang.

Just for one event, that is: Lichu!

As for who to appoint as a reserve?

Naturally, it is the eldest son Zhao Hao......
