The ministers didn't let Li Guanqi wait too long, and as soon as Qin Minzhong's voice fell, another minister came out and said: "The ministers of the Imperial Palace, the left capital of the Imperial Palace, Lin Baiqi played the emperor, and Lord Qin's words are really cowardly and misleading the country." Since ancient times, the Western Turks have never stopped harassing and plundering our borders, and they are insatiable thieves and robbers, and they can no longer tolerate these thieves, and they beg the emperor to make up their minds and fight with the thieves. ”

Li Guanqi shook his head slightly in his heart, the slogans of this imperial history are shouted louder, but they are just shouting slogans. You think I don't want to fight, just now the person in charge of money said that there is no money, and I can't afford to fight. But Lin Bai has this kind of integrity, and he can't suppress it, so he said, "What is your best strategy for retreating from the enemy?" ”

Lin Bai said loudly: "It is the duty of the generals to protect the border and kill the enemy, and it is not within the minister's ability, but the minister thinks that the thieves must not be tolerated. ”

Li Guanqi kicked his heart in his heart, and you just shouted slogans with your brother. Looking at Zu Donglai, who was slightly closed on both sides underneath, looking calm, although he was not very reluctant, he still had to ask him: "Prime Minister, what do you think?" ”

Zu Donglai said slowly: "Negotiate peace." ”

"Peace?" Li Guanqi subconsciously resisted a little in his heart, he came from modern society, he knew too many unequal treaties, and this kind of alliance signed by people under the city after they reached the door of the house was not equal at all.

"Yes. It's peace. Zu Donglai still had a faint expression.

"Tell me your reasoning." Li Guanqi gritted his teeth and said.

"The Western Turkic soldiers are strong and strong, people are like wolves, horses are like tigers, but our Korean soldiers are mostly negligent in battle formations, and there are few victories in previous encounters, and this time our army has resisted the Western Turkic army for more than a month, which is a good time to negotiate peace. Moreover, the Western Turks just wanted some money and things, and gave it to him. ”

When he said this, except for a few military generals of He Zhuguo, the ministers of the DPRK and China all echoed it.

Although Li Guanqi was very resistant to the negotiation of peace, seeing that the ministers of the DPRK and China were unanimously in favor of peace, it was difficult for him to agree or not. And he is not brainless and angry, he also knows that according to the current situation of the Great Qianchao, it is indeed easy to negotiate peace, so he said: "Then according to your wishes, who is suitable to go to negotiate peace?" ”

"The minister recommends Lord Yushilin of the left capital." I don't know if Zu Donglai deliberately rectified Lin Bai.

Li Guanqi also wanted to see if this Lord Lin really had backbone or could only shout slogans, so he said: "Just do as you say." Lin Bai, you should go to the Western Turks. ”

The emperor has spoken, and Lin Bai can't say no, isn't that a protest? I had to say, "The minister's decree." I will never dare to lose the national body of our Great Qian Dynasty and the emperor's might. ”

After the dispersal of the dynasty, Li Guanqi's mood was in a state of neither good nor bad, although there were a lot of worries, but the harvest of the early dynasty was much better than he originally expected. Although as he originally expected, the ministers in the court are still mostly inactive, and more than half of them are on Zu Donglai's side, but it can be seen that the ministers still agree with their own emperor, at least they are not complete puppets.

At the same time, Qin Minzhong and Lin Bai's performance also lifted his spirits, Lin Bai may not have any real talent, but even if he has backbone, it is good, not to mention that Qin Minzhong still seems to have two strokes.

After dinner, Li Guanqi was a little bored, so he planned to go out of the palace for a walk, this was the first time he left the palace after he crossed over, and he didn't bring anyone with him, only let He Ziming follow.

Out of the palace gate, after crossing the Jinshui Bridge is a large square, the east side of the square is the office of the four departments of officials, rites, households, and workers, and the west side is the location of the military department.

Li Guanqi planned to continue walking, but when he saw that the lights were still on in the household, he couldn't help but be curious, he didn't expect that there were also overtime workers in this era, so he walked to the window and looked in, and saw that the person who looked like a scribe under the kerosene lamp was writing at the desk, and from time to time he pulled the abacus at hand.

Li Guanqi asked He Ziming to wait outside, and he walked in slowly, and when he saw that the man didn't raise his head, he asked, "Why don't you go home yet?" ”

"Huh?" The man was surprised that someone came in at this time, but he was startled, looked up at Li Guanqi, he didn't recognize it, and said with a smile: "Haven't you gone home yet, sir?" You can sit down first, I will have to wait a while for the task at hand to be completed. ”

Li Guanqi didn't sit down, looked around, and said, "Did you want to stay and work overtime, or did your boss arrange it?" ”

The man continued to write without raising his head, and sneered: "I'm not afraid to let you know, no one wants to take the initiative to work overtime, and it's not that our Lord Lu has nothing to do." ”

Li Guanqi originally came in and asked casually, but when he saw that the other party was busy, he planned to leave, walked to the door, and asked casually: "Lord Lu, which Lord Lu?" ”

"Who else can there be, the Lu director of the Huainan Qing Officials Division."

"Lu Yunhai?" Li Guanqi had already stepped outside the door with one foot and retracted it.

"Yes, it's Lord Lu Yunhai and Lu from Biya Sheng, you also know my lord?" The man kept talking.

Li Guanqi heard that he didn't have much respect for Lu Yunhai in his tone, so he raised the question to hear what Lu Yunhai's subordinates thought of the reformers he had always wanted to see, so he pretended to be casual and asked, "You just said that Lord Lu has nothing to do, how do you say it?" ”

"What's going on? One sentence or two sentences are not clear. ”

"I just don't have anything else to do, so you can talk about it." The more he didn't say it, the more Li Guanqi wanted to know.

The man stopped his hand, rubbed his somewhat sore wrist, and said, "Isn't this the Western Turks calling again?" ”

"Yes, but the Western Turks called, what does it have to do with whether you work overtime or not?" Li Guanqi asked puzzled.

The man smiled and said, "This adult can't see that he is still an impatient, you listen to me explain to you slowly." ”

Li Guanqi also found that he was indeed a little anxious, so he smiled wryly and did not speak.

The man continued: "Because the Western Turks are attacking the border passes, Lord Lu believes that because the emperor is newly enthroned, in order to show the emperor's prestige, he will definitely send heavy troops to meet it, and Huainan, as the granary of the world, will inevitably be an important supply place for military rations, so he ordered us to take stock of Huainan's accounts day and night. ”

"Isn't it normal for him to do this? Why do you say he's okay to look for? Li Guanqi was slightly puzzled.

The man smiled mysteriously and said, "It seems that you don't know much about the current situation, looking at your clothes, you are a child of the clan, right?" ”
