Qin Mingyue said: "It's late today, tomorrow, ask He Jinfang to see me in Qingming Hall." ”

Chunyin hurriedly came down.

Qin Mingyue naturally went to rest and didn't mention it.

The next day, it happened to be the Great Dynasty Meeting, Qin Mingyue had not been to the Dynasty since the last time she participated in the Great Dynasty Meeting, this retreat was over, and she naturally wanted to show up.

Therefore, Qin Mingyue still wore the priest's robe early in the morning and went to the palace to go to the court.

At the last court meeting, Qin Mingyue showed her political acumen. However, some officials did not dare to underestimate it. In addition, Qin Mingyue has a good future, and the saints are well-off, this time when she went to the court and walked on the road of the palace, it naturally attracted a group of officials to come over to say hello.

Qin Mingyue greeted everyone kindly, but her footsteps did not delay at all.

After a while, we arrived at the Taiji Hall. After the three rings of the whip, the emperor began to go to court. Emperor Changping saw the beautiful figure in the priest's robe among the officials, and he was also a little incredible, after all, Qin Mingyue had not been to the court for a month.

However, at the time of the Great Dynasty Meeting, Emperor Changping did not ask Qin Mingyue. Super will go on normally. Officials were in favor of each of the topics discussed, and there were officials against. Qin Mingyue had been standing quietly all the time.

This lasted for an hour, and when the officials were discussing the border issue, Emperor Changping couldn't help but ask Qin Mingyue: "Qin Langzhong, I don't know what you think about this matter." ”

All the officials focused their eyes on Qin Mingyue. Some officials thought, sure enough, His Majesty is going to ask Miss Mingyue about the government again. Some officials thought that Miss Mingyue had a clear idea of Jiangnan's question last time, and this time she didn't know what kind of high opinion she would have to express.

In everyone's expectant gaze, Qin Mingyue replied: "Back to Your Majesty, this issue has not been studied by the minister, so I dare not say what I think." ”

Hearing this answer, most of the officials, including the high-ranking Emperor Changping, were a little disappointed. However, Emperor Changping knew that this was not the time to be entangled, so he could only continue to discuss it with his courtiers.

At the end of the entire Great Dynasty Meeting, Qin Mingyue never spoke.

After it was over, Qin Mingyue was ready to go back to the Star Tower as usual, but a eunuch left her, the military department secretary, and several university scholars behind. It was said that His Majesty had summoned him.

Qin Mingyue sighed in her heart, it is estimated that it will not be possible if she wants to express her opinion today.

When he arrived at the Heart Cultivation Palace, the emperor was already sitting behind the imperial case and was ready to review the folds. After Qin Mingyue and several ministers knelt down together, Emperor Changping asked people to bring them chairs.

After Qin Mingyue sat down, Emperor Changping said: "At today's court meeting, there has been no debate about the use of troops at the border pass. I'd like to ask you what you think. Mingyue, this time, you can't help but say it. ”

Everyone's eyes were focused on Qin Mingyue again. Qin Mingyue sighed, and could only be the first to speak: "Emperor Qiqi, now, the three surrounding countries often come to harass our Great Zhou. We have to station a large number of soldiers at our border gates all year round, which brings a great burden to the country. This is indeed a drawback, which existed at the beginning of the establishment of our Great Zhou. Historically, these three countries have often invaded the territory of our Great Zhou, bringing deep trauma to our people. However, we have always been reactive. This is actually the shame of our Great Zhou. The people of the Great Zhou, the emperors of every generation, and the courtiers of every generation want to be ashamed. However, it is not easy. ”

"What is the war fought for? The war is fought for money, grain and grass, the lives of the soldiers, the accumulation of the people for countless years, the concentration of wisdom by the ministers of the DPRK and the central government, and the efforts of the emperor of the dynasty. ”

"Our Great Zhou is not like a nomadic country like Great Xia, Great Yu, and Great Shang, our Great Zhou is an agricultural country. Our people are more engaged in farming, studying, and business. In such an agricultural country, the people are like docile sheep, and if we want the people to become warriors, we must train and cultivate. But what about nomadic countries like Bactria and so on? Their people are herdsmen, they are born on horseback, born on horseback, died on horseback, man has not yet grown to the height of a horse, can already bend a bow and shoot arrows. They can even organize old people and women to fight a war. Compared to us, their people are like fierce wolves. ”

"Although the land of our Great Zhou is the largest among the four countries, and the people are the largest among the four countries, we are a group of sheep here, and they are all a group of wolves. Although there are many sheep, they are not a big threat to wolves, but make wolves salivate. ”

Qin Mingyue's words made the emperors and courtiers in the Heart Cultivation Hall all look at each other angrily, although they couldn't help but agree with Qin Mingyue's statement in their hearts, but how could they listen to such shameful words? Not to mention Emperor Changping, who is a Ming monarch.

At this moment, Emperor Changping's face was so black that he could scrape off a layer of frost.

Emperor Changping was unhappy: "Qin Langzhong, then according to what you say, we'd better not fight, let the other three kingdoms bully us, and we will just be killed?" ”

Xie Xiang actually agreed with Qin Mingyue's opinion, but he didn't expect that Qin Mingyue would be so bold and say it so bluntly. However, after thinking about it, which of the past generations of national teachers who picked up the Star Tower was not arrogant and bold? The glory of the royal family, the majesty of the emperor, is really nothing to the national teachers? They are the spokesmen of the gods, where can they fear the emperors and generals in the world?

Xie Xiang smiled mockingly and did not make a statement.

Behind him, Bai Hongwei, a scholar of Wuyingdian University, was furious, and was about to refute Qin Mingyue's words, but when he heard what the emperor said, he could only endure it, and if Qin Mingyue didn't answer well, he would step forward to reprimand him again. At the same time, he couldn't help but think in his heart, after all, she is a woman, this timidity, if she is made a national teacher in the future, it will not be a good thing.

Qin Mingyue was just like Xie Xiangxiang, she was not afraid of Emperor Changping's anger at all, and said calmly: "Your Majesty, the minister didn't mean that?" Will a rabbit bite when it's in a hurry? Moreover, we are the spirits of all things. No matter how stupid we are, we know how to fight back when we are beaten by others. It's just that I'm not in favor of a large-scale war now because we don't have the conditions yet. Because we haven't cultivated a division of tigers and wolves, we can go to the northwest, southwest, and northeast to fight against those tiger and wolf countries. ”

"Now we have always been on the defensive side of the week. As long as the three of them have their hands free, they will beat us twice, and they will all form a habit. In this way, we have to station a large number of troops on the border all the time, and we dare not relax at any time. In the long run, can it become a fatigue teacher? As the saying goes, there are only a thousand days to be a thief, where is there a thousand days to prevent thieves? ”

Emperor Changping laughed angrily: "This doesn't work, that doesn't work, so what does Qin Langzhong mean?" ”
