Qi Yu has been a little anxious recently.

Last time, although he played a trick and dispatched a thousand elite of the Imperial Forest Army to Jiayuguan in the name of "escort", it caused the vigilance and dissatisfaction of a group of main courtiers, and they made endless noise in the court every day.

Although Zhang Shoufu still came forward to appease all parties, he was also dissatisfied with his "unauthorized assertion".

Recently, whether it was discussing politics in the court or teaching him in the imperial study, Zhang Shoufu suggested that he give an order as soon as possible, ordering the British Duke to lead the soldiers of the three armies to stick to Jiayu Pass and not take the initiative to fight, so as to appease the courtiers.

But he wouldn't!

Just a small country in Gaochang, a small land, and civil strife is undecided, dare to lead troops to harass the border, rob the border people, if the Great Qi soldiers can't shrink at this time, how to protect the border people, including Gaochang and other small neighboring countries?

He knew why Zhang Shoufu insisted on sticking to it and resolutely refused to fight, and he also understood that Zhang Shoufu's upcoming decree would be of great benefit to the country and the people......

But understanding doesn't mean receiving!

Thinking of the past, Emperor Taizu went from a grass people to fight everywhere and win the world; Emperor Chengzu swept his horse and beat his old enemy to the point that he had nowhere to stay, so he had to take refuge in the desert and move to Beihai.

There is no reason to come to him, but he has to be bullied by a little Gao Changguo.

He is not warlike, but he is not afraid of war!

However, it is not he who has the final say in the court......

Qi Yu has been on the throne for nearly five years, and it is the first time he feels so frustrated and powerless.

But he had to cheer up and deal with a group of courtiers led by Zhang Shoufu, as well as Empress Dowager Li, Feng Yongting and others.

Even if he can't send troops to support the British duke, he must ensure that the 1,000 royal forest troops are not recalled immediately, and strive to make the British duke calmly arrange before he is forced to issue an edict, so that the Crimean will no longer dare to easily offend!

Qi Yu let out a long breath and got up to shake his clothes.

Not long after, the Hanlin Academy repaired Yu Keyuan and others entered the hall in turn to start today's sutra feast.

Today's story is that Emperor Taizu defeated Chen Jiusi's army in Jinling and laid the foundation of the royal industry.

"Taizu is based on Jinling, and Chen Jiusi led the naval army to fight. Chen Jun is very good at water warfare, and his ship is strong and big...... At the beginning of Taizu's occupation of Jinling, his subordinates were not accustomed to water warfare, and Jinling was full of water, and many of the strategists thought that they should avoid its edge and evacuated temporarily......

"Taizu thought that there was no way to retreat, fight or survive, and persist in not retreating. Liu Junshi then made a plan, and the advance team made a detailed plan and secretly set up an ambush......

"The two armies met and fought fiercely...... Taizu took the lead, and finally broke Chen Jiusi in Huze, kept Jinling, and then created a hegemony! ”

Qi Yu's heart moved, and he asked, "Taizu's defeat of Chen Jiusi reminded me of today's Gaochang Kingdom's invasion of the border. What do you think you should do now? ”

Everyone didn't expect Qi Yu to ask such a sensitive question, and they were all stunned for a while.

When they came to their senses, they all stood with their heads bowed like quails, not daring to say a word.

The court has been arguing about this matter for nearly half a month, and there is still no conclusion.

Although Zhang Gui, the first assistant of the cabinet, has expressed his attitude and advocated holding on to it and won the support of most of the courtiers, there are still many people who are resolutely fighting in the end.

Especially the emperor in front of him, His Majesty, quietly dispatched a thousand elite of the Imperial Forest Army to Jiayuguan in the name of "escort", what his intentions were, as long as his eyes were not blind, he could see it.

The emperor and Shousuke fought in the ring, and no matter which side they were on, they were all wrong.

Qi Yu saw that the few people who were still talking about how Taizu was heroic and did not retreat and fought against Chen Jun before, now they have become gourds without mouths, and anger is surging in his heart.

This is his courtiers, the so-called "eat the king's lu, bear the king's worries", and only the first half of the sentence is left for them!

A group of silverfish in the corpse vegetarian meal!

The anxiety and irritability all the time made Qi Yu almost can't help but scold everyone.

Fortunately, Hanlin Xiu Yu Keyuan walked out in time.

"Your Majesty, the ministers think that since it is a war or a defense, and the courtiers insist on their own words and quarrel endlessly, it is better to think of a compromise idea." Yu Keyuan replied.

Seeing that Yu Keyuan didn't stick to it directly, Qi Yu became interested and asked, "Oh? Don't know how to find a compromise? ”

Yu Keyuan replied: "Gaochang is a small country, and there has been civil strife for many years, but the third prince Kerim dares to invade the border at this time, except for the lack of grain in autumn and winter, it may not be that I have been holding Jiayu Pass for many years, and I am contemptuous, so it is time to send troops to deterre."

"However, rashly conquering Gaochang State, the minister thought that it was not possible. After the death of the old lord of Gaochang, the three princes attacked each other for the throne of the khanate all the year round, and the border was peaceful for many years. If the Great Qi sends a large army to press the border at this time, under the fear of the destruction of the country, maybe the three princes will temporarily abandon their hatred and work together to deal with the Great Qi. ”

But now the Crimean has forced both of his brothers to retreat to the northern border of Gaochang. At this time, if the imperial court sends troops, it can first send people to contact the eldest prince and the second prince, promise heavy benefits, and jointly exterminate the Crimea. Qi Yu said.

As for the remnants of the remaining eldest prince and second prince after the extermination of the Crimea, there is no need to worry at all.

"Perhaps your majesty would have expected." Yu Keyuan arched his hand and said, "However, if it is not my race, its heart will be different", and "there are eggs under the nest", whether the eldest prince and the second prince will be as expected by His Majesty is unpredictable. ”

Qi Yuchen lowered his face and said, "Even if Crimea and his two brothers join forces, they will have no power to resist in the face of the Great Qi King Division!" ”

Yu Keyuan did not back down, and asked earnestly: "Dare to ask if it is Your Majesty's original intention to drive the people to war?" ”

Yu Keyuan's words were extremely bold and disrespectful, and the imperial study was suddenly silent.

On an October day, the other Japanese speakers were sweating profusely, and their hearts were frightened and worried.

Newborn calves are not afraid of tigers, Yu Xiu is still too young in the end, he has not experienced wind and rain, and he does not know the dangers of the Huan Sea, so he dares to question the emperor so bluntly, causing them to suffer as well......

In the midst of uneasiness and anger, the emperor who could hear the throne said coldly: "Zhuqing will step back for the time being, and Yu Xiu will stay." ”

Everyone took a long breath and hurriedly bowed down and retreated, for fear that if they took a step too slow, they would become the fish in the pond that were affected.

Qi Yu had a gloomy face and glanced at Feng Lin.

Feng Lin understood, and hurriedly led a group of palace maids to retreat and close the door of the palace.

"Smack-"

As soon as the door of the temple was closed, there was a sound of throwing cups in the hall.

followed by Qi Yu's questioning: "Earlier, when I talked about Taizu's defeat of Chen Jiusi's army, you were impassioned, praising Taizu for his fearlessness, resoluteness and battle; Now in the face of the incursion of Xiao Gaochang, you and others are not fighting, what is your intention?

"If I want to follow Emperor Taizu's example, why can't I?"

Feng Lin was startled, and hurriedly waved away the little chamberlain, and eavesdropped on his own ears.

I could only hear that Yu Keyuan was stubborn and did not retreat, and replied respectfully: "The minister doesn't dare." However, the world is different, how can we see it equally? Chen Jiusi's water army attacked, Emperor Taizu could win the Central Plains when he entered, and he had to fight if he retreated or fell into the cliff; If Your Majesty sends troops to conquer, do you know that the three princes of Gaochang Kingdom will not follow Emperor Taizu and fight against the water? ...... then"

"Smack-"

A crisp sound of porcelain breaking cut off Yu Keyuan's recital.

Immediately followed by Qi Yu's angry scolding: "Bastard thing! It's just a barbarian, how can it be compared to my Emperor Taizu! ”

Feng Lin quietly withdrew and breathed a sigh of relief.

As long as everyone in the court is on the side of Zhang Shoufu and his godfather, he resolutely advocates sticking to it and opposing the war.
