Chapter 135: The Emperor's Migraine (15)

Chapter 8

After getting up the next day, when Cen Zijin got out of bed, he almost fell to the ground.

Fortunately, he reacted quickly and quickly sat down on the bed.

When he went to court, his mind was a little wandering.

In the court, civil officials and military attaches began to quarrel again.

The New Year is approaching in the north, and the barbarians in the north are ready to move.

The north is barren and food is scarce, but most of the barbarians are brave and warlike, and they are much stronger than the people of the Central Plains.

So at this time of year, barbarians invade the border to get food.

And this time is no exception.

The two sides quarreled fiercely over "how to deal with the barbarian attack".

The main battle faction believes that once they show weakness to the barbarians, the barbarians will definitely become more arrogant in the future, not to mention, because there is too much rain this year, the grain harvest is not good, it is 30% of the previous years, and there is no surplus grain for the barbarians.

And the Lord's faction believes that the north is barren, and the people of the north are strong, brave and good at fighting, and if they are war-like, they will be strewn with corpses all over the field, and blood will flow all over the ground.

As the New Year approaches, the people will be reunited with their families, and if a war breaks out, many people will be separated.

The main battle faction retorted that the country is a country, and there is no home for the country. What's more, all the barbarians plundered was the people's grain, and if they were plundered, how would the people spend the winter?

The Lord and the faction believe that Chen Liang can still be used, but if the war starts, there will be no taxes to be levied, what is the difference between being plundered by the barbarians?

Neither side could convince anyone, seeing that the smell of gunpowder was getting heavier and heavier, the two sides suddenly knelt down and said: "Your Majesty, because this year's harvest is not good, the people have already reduced their taxes, if they increase taxes because of the war, I am afraid that people will be unconvinced!" ”

"This is a mistake, the emperor, if you give food to the barbarians, you still have to collect it from the people, why not take advantage of this time to force the barbarians to retreat at once, and then make them dare not invade wantonly?"

"The Emperor's ......"

"There is no need to say much about the love between the two, let me think about this matter, I will come here today first, and we will discuss it tomorrow."

There was also such an incident in the last life, I still remember that there was no war, and the barbarians directly took away a large amount of grain, which was also collected from the people, and that winter, the people were miserable, and even starved everywhere in some areas.

In the years that followed, each time a peaceful settlement was advocated, and the barbarian appetite grew......

But if a war is launched, let's not talk about how to solve the military salary, but who should lead the troops to repel the barbarians, it will be a big problem.

The current general seems to be loyal and full of justice, but in the last life, when the King of Freedom was forcing the palace, he temporarily turned back and became a sharp blade stabbing into his chest......

Moreover, the power in his hands seems to be a little too heavy......

The tiger talisman is in his hands, except for the Praetorian Guards inside and outside the palace walls that are directly controlled by him, the emperor, the soldiers in the army are directly controlled by Song Yanbo with the tiger talisman......

Thinking about things in his heart, Cen Zijin didn't realize the tiredness on his body, and he didn't suddenly realize it until the container shouted to stop him.

After coming back to his senses, the tiredness of his body came up as soon as he could, and he couldn't support it in an instant.

After returning to the study, Rong Qi didn't remember him and her things today, but let him calm down first.

But apparently it was of little use, because he was absent-minded in his writing.

Rong Qi took out the paper he had written, and then said: "The emperor is not quiet, and the words he writes seem a lot more impetuous. ”
