The king said, "Why?" Could it be that if we keep the army, we will have more say in it? Do you think that now our army is still our army? If you withdraw it, you can withdraw it, anyway, the imperial court has no money to support them. They all went back to farming and hunting, and the court not only saved military salaries, but also added more people to work, and the widow thought it was very good. ”

Listening to the king's words, Gandhi thought to himself, this is a coward to me, a faint king, and even such a thing as the dismissal of the army is so light, not only light, it is almost like throwing off a burden. It seems that he is really not suitable to be a king, and he is not even suitable to be a puppet king.

The ministers below were silent again, and since the king had said so, what else had they to say? One by one, they were speechless.

At this time, the prime minister stood up and said, "Your Majesty, the old minister thinks that this Tatar slave is indeed a little too deceitful. ”

"What can you do with you, Prime Minister?" The king asked, looking helpless.

The prime minister said: "In the opinion of the old minister, we should send people to other countries to inquire to see if their annual allowance has also increased." If so, then we can unite and negotiate with the Tatars to reduce our annual supply, or at least restore it to its previous level. ”

I frowned, my chubby face twitched a few times, and I asked after a moment of silence: "What does the prime minister mean that other countries are likely not to increase the amount of annual offerings?" ”

The prime minister nodded and said: "The Tatar people do not allow these ten countries in our west to communicate with each other, so the news is naturally blocked, and it is indeed a question whether other countries have added additional annual offerings. ”

The king said, "Then we may ask the ambassador?" He'll know. ”

The prime minister said: "This old minister has already asked. The ambassador said Duga. ”

The king said, "Then it must be all added." ”

The prime minister said: "Even if it is all added, then we will join forces?" ”

The king asked, "Will they join forces?" ”

The prime minister said: "They have all been added, our country has difficulties, I think they will also have difficulties, and they will unite." ”

The king frowned again and pondered.

Gandhi looked at the old prime minister below, and felt that this person was a person who understood and had some courage, at least he was trying to find a way to solve the problem, instead of blindly complaining, or looking helpless.

The king pondered for a long time, and then asked the prime minister, "Prime minister, even if they are willing to unite, if the negotiations are not good and the Tatars are annoyed, will they destroy our country in a fit of rage?" ”

Gandhi shook his head slightly and smiled, and said secretly in his heart: "This king is a coward, and he didn't run away." ”

I only heard the prime minister say: "Isn't it us who annoyed us, isn't there nine other countries?" As the saying goes, this law does not blame the public, at most it wants to scare and scare us, and then if the annual supply is not reduced, it will be over. ”

The king asked, "Is it really as simple as the prime minister said?" ”

The prime minister said: "It's not that this old minister can't guarantee it, but it's just an inference based on facts. ”

The king thought for a moment and said, "It's not accurate to infer things, so I think it's better to let this matter go for now!" ”

The prime minister had no choice but to say, "Yes, Your Majesty. ”

Gandhi shook his head again, and scolded in his heart: "This stupid pig king, how good is the prime minister's suggestion? He actually wanted to let it go. Is it any wonder that the Tatar ambassador is so arrogant, and when he encounters such a weak king, why don't he hurry up and be powerful? The vassal state is also a country, not a territory of his Dayang Dynasty. ”

At this time, one of the ministers came out and said, "Your Majesty, the minister thinks that the prime minister's suggestion is very good. It's also an opportunity. What if the Tatars saw that we were united, and took a step back? We've had a much better time since then. ”

The king was stunned when he heard this, and said, "You agree with the prime minister's statement?" ”

"The minister agrees." The minister said.

"But it's dangerous!" The king said.

The minister said, "Your Majesty, if you want to benefit, you have to take risks. ”

As soon as the words fell, another minister stood up and said, "Your Majesty, the minister also agrees. Today, the minister can barely eat two meals. But in the future, the appetite of the Tatar people will grow bigger and bigger, and when the time comes, the minister's family may not even be able to eat a meal. Last year's annual offering, the Tatar increased by 30% with just one sentence. In the past, the original annual scale was a bit unbearable for us. Now that it has increased by 30%, if it weren't for the fact that our court and the common people would have taken silver together with His Majesty's royal family to make up the numbers, these years would definitely not have been able to make up.

When the Tatars saw this, they ordered that this year's annual offerings should be prepared now. Isn't that persecuting us? The deficit left by last year's annual allowance has not yet been raised, and a new deficit has begun. No wonder the common people complained! ”

When the king heard the minister's words, he said, "No one knows about this. Well, are there any of you who are not in favor of unification? ”

As soon as the king's words were finished, one of the ministers stood up and said, "Your Majesty, the ministers do not approve. ”

The king nodded with a smile, which means look at it, there are also supporters of the widow. He said, "Okay, tell me your opinion." ”

The minister said: "The ministers and His Majesty the King have similar thoughts, but the ministers also think that if the Tatars know that the people behind this union are our Great Black Bird Country, then our Great Black Bird Country will become a guilty lamb, and the Tatar people will definitely not let us go." At that time, the crimes of the ten countries will be borne by our Great Crow Bird Country. Isn't that more than worth the cost? ”

After hearing this, the king nodded again and again, and said, "You are right, even if it is a union, then our Great Crowque Kingdom cannot be the initiator. After the matter is revealed, the Tatars will definitely be angry with our country, and the consequences will be unimaginable. ”

After this idea came out, the lobby began to fall silent again, as if time had stood still.

Gandhi thought to himself: "It is said that people talk a lot, and now it seems that this sentence is not false at all." There are pros and cons for everything, and each has good reasons. It's not easy to do! ”

After a while, the king asked, "Who else is opposed to union?" ”

No one responded. The king frowned, which means that it is not appropriate to have only one objection! Then he asked, "What about those who are in favor?" Who else is in favor? ”

As soon as the words fell, the three ministers stood up and said together: "The ministers agree to unite with the other nine countries. ”

"Why?" The king asked, his voice a little angry, and his face a little ugly.
