"This ......"

Hearing Chu Xiuran's words, everyone in the council hall couldn't help but turn their heads and ears, but no one dared to step forward and say a word.

Chu Xiuhan's efforts to protect the Great Chu River and Mountain this time have indeed made a lot of contributions, but the contradiction between Chu Xiuhan and Chu Xiuran is also well known.

No one dares to anger the Son of Heaven for the sake of a prince, and a prince who wears a sinful body.

Besides, now that Prime Minister Xiao is trying his best to be on Chu Xiuhan's side, if they stand up and say something contrary to Prime Minister Xiao at this time, it will not end well.

This Prime Minister Xiao and the emperor, they can't afford to offend one of them! So, the only way for them to do so is to remain silent and say nothing.

Looking at the group of timid people in the hall, Chu Xiuran was angry, slapped the armrest of the dragon chair fiercely, and said angrily:

"A bunch of waste, what do I want you to do? At critical moments, there is no one who can give advice. ”

"The ministers are afraid, the emperor forgives the sin!"

Obviously feeling Chu Xiuran's almost murderous anger, everyone in the hall trembled, knelt on the ground, and shouted loudly.

Chu Xiuran looked at the group of civil and military ministers in front of him who would only be the most uniform at this time, he gritted his teeth angrily, his hands were clenched into fists, his knuckles were pinched and gurgling, his eyes were full of anger, staring at the group of people in the hall, he didn't speak, just looked at them quietly.

And Chu Xiuran didn't speak, and those ministers naturally didn't dare to get up, so they knelt on the ground like that, buried their heads low, and didn't dare to look directly at Chu Xiuran's anger.

"Your Majesty, the minister thinks that Prime Minister Xiao Cheng's suggestion is not feasible."

After a long time, a voice against Prime Minister Xiao suddenly appeared among the ministers who were kneeling.

Suddenly, there was silence in the hall, and Prime Minister Xiao Cheng frowned and looked at the man with some displeasure.

However, when he heard this, only Prime Minister Xiao Cheng was displeased.

The other civil and military officials in the hall were relieved in their hearts when they saw that a bird finally appeared, at least they didn't have to bear Chu Xiuran's anger.

And when Chu Xiuran heard this, the corners of his lips raised slightly, this was the answer he wanted.

"Oh? Li Aiqing said, why is the prime minister's suggestion not feasible? ”

Chu Xiuran narrowed his eyes, looked at Li Lei, and asked with a straight face.

Li Lei stood out from the crowd and walked to the center of the hall to stand, everyone was even more relieved when they saw that it was Li Lei, since the new emperor ascended the throne, he has always favored Li Lei, and Li Lei is also happy to disregard other things and go to please Chu Xiuran, so it is most appropriate for Li Lei to come forward for such a high-risk matter.

"Your Majesty, His Royal Highness King Han was originally guilty of sin, and this time he went to the border to make meritorious service for his crimes, besides, King Han was already guilty of heinous crimes, and such a small merit was not enough to offset the crimes he committed."

Li Lei stood in the center of the main hall, and he said every word, and he was not afraid of Prime Minister Xiao Cheng looking at him at this moment, and his eyes were eager to kill him.

Because he knew very well in his heart that what he said was what the emperor liked to hear.

"What's more, now that the enemy is present, it is the duty of every man to protect his family and defend the country, so His Royal Highness King Han is just doing what he should do, and there is no such thing as rewarding him at all."

As if to completely crush Prime Minister Xiao's words, Li Lei gushed endlessly.

Listening to Li Lei's words, Prime Minister Xiao Chengxiang was so angry that his whole body trembled slightly, and he stretched out his hand and pointed at Li Lei angrily: "You ......" strong words.

"Hmm...... Li Aiqing is right. ”

However, before Prime Minister Xiao could finish speaking, he was interrupted by Chu Xiuran's words, Chu Xiuran smiled and nodded, expressing his agreement with Li Lei's words.

As soon as Chu Xiuran's words came out, Prime Minister Xiao Cheng could only swallow all the words back into his stomach, Chu Xiuran said this was already obvious, and the implication was that he never thought of removing Chu Xiuhan's charges at all, perhaps, when Chu Xiuhan triumphed, he would still be sentenced to death for the crime of assassinating the Queen Mother.

Li Lei hooked the corners of his lips slightly, looking at Prime Minister Xiao Cheng's angry eyes and round eyes, angry and nowhere to go, his heart, not to mention how happy, suddenly, he thought about it again, looked at Chu Xiuran, bowed slightly, and said:

"Your Majesty, the minister has another suggestion, I don't know ......"

Li Lei deliberately wanted to speak and stopped, Prime Minister Xiao wanted to save Chu Xiuhan, but he just didn't let him, this time, he not only wanted to let Chu Xiuhan go and not return, but also pull the entire Prime Minister's Mansion into the water.

"Li Aiqing, but it doesn't hurt to say it."

Chu Xiuran looked at Li Lei with a smile, looking forward to what he would say next, because this Li Lei would always surprise him, wouldn't he?

Emperor Xiao Qianxian was already the prime minister when he was in power, and now he is the ruler of the country, many times, it is not good for him to directly confront him in the court, but other people can.

As for this other person, Chu Xiuran felt that Li Lei was a very useful chess piece.

When Li Lei heard this, he glanced at Xiao Chengxiang with a smile in his eyes, the cunning in his eyes was obvious, Xiao Chengxiang was shocked, and his intuition told him that Li Lei was playing ghost tricks again, and it was definitely not a good thing.

Prime Minister Xiao Cheng frowned deeply, staring at Li Lei for a moment, to see what tricks he wanted to play.

Looking at Prime Minister Xiao Cheng's nervous appearance, Li Lei felt very happy in his heart, and then turned his head to look at Chu Xiuran, and immediately became a respectful look, and said:

"Your Majesty, Weichen thinks that the grass must be eradicated, and now His Royal Highness King Han has won a complete victory at the border pass, why not chase all the way to the victory, go straight to the nest of South Vietnam, destroy him South Vietnam, and never be in trouble."

"Your Majesty, no."

When Prime Minister Xiao heard Li Lei's words, he was afraid that Chu Xiuran would really agree to Li Lei's suggestion, and at that moment, before Chu Xiuran could speak, he hurriedly stopped it.

Chu Xiuran was about to open his mouth to answer Li Lei's words, but he was blocked by Prime Minister Xiao Cheng's words, and he immediately frowned unhappily, and said in a cold voice:

"What does the prime minister think is wrong?"

"Your Majesty." Prime Minister Xiao Cheng looked at Chu Xiuran: "King Han went to the border pass, he only brought two thousand soldiers, and now it is not easy to repel the South Vietnamese barbarians for more than 30 miles outside the pass, if you want to use these two thousand soldiers to destroy South Vietnam, this is undoubtedly an egg to hit the stone, I am afraid that South Vietnam will not be destroyed by then, but it will bring great trouble to my Chu country!" ”

Rabbits will bite people when they are in a hurry, and besides, those barbarians in South Vietnam are all arrogant, if they rashly attack South Vietnam, the consequences will ...... It's unimaginable.

"Then what does the prime minister think should be done about this matter?"

Chu Xiuran looked at Prime Minister Xiao Cheng, his narrow phoenix eyes narrowed slightly, and the dangerous aura was undoubtedly revealed, showing that he was very unhappy at the moment.

"The minister thinks that it is better to let His Royal Highness King Han guard Nanyue to ensure that Nanyue will never come to attack."
