Seeing her so angry, Huo Jingzhi also knew the anger in her heart.

"Don't be angry, the emperor didn't agree, and I saw that the emperor also wanted to fight."

"It's right to fight, you can't be polite to these Turkic guys, you have to beat them, they will know how to converge."

"Just relying on harmony will only fuel their arrogance even more."

Hearing that the emperor did not agree, and was still planning to fight, the gloom on the face of the eldest princess of Ningyang eased a lot.

"Everyone understands this truth, but now that the Yu Dynasty is facing many snow disasters, how can it have the ability to fight?"

Fight, many people in the court want to fight, but the immediate problems of the Yu Dynasty are also in front of them, there is no money and no food, and there are so many victims who need to be resettled and resettled.

What to take to fight.

"I remember that this Turk is in the north, right?"

Huo Junyao suddenly spoke, and several people on the side were stunned.

"Yes."

Huo Jinyan smiled and nodded.

"In that case, what will happen to them if the snow disaster on our side is so serious?"

As soon as these words came out, the room fell silent for a moment, only the hot pot on the table was still bubbling.

Huo Jingzhi and Huo Jinyan's eyes burst into light, and it took a while for Huo Jingzhi to ask; "You mean, the snow disaster on the Turkic side is even worse?"

Huo Junyao smiled, and did not answer directly, but looked at Huo Jinyan and asked; "Second brother, how much is the fresh mutton you bought today?"

When she asked so suddenly, Huo Jinyan just wanted to answer, but immediately reacted.

"The usual price is six or seven pounds, I have come here a lot recently, and I will buy some every time, the price has been rising, at first I thought it was the people below messing around."

"Last time, I went with me personally, and a pound of mutton cost 12 Wen, and today I also went, and a pound needs 15 Wen."

Hearing him say this, Huo Jingzhi and the eldest princess of Ningyang also sensed that something was wrong.

In just a short period of time, the price has doubled, and there must be a problem here, and it is still a big problem.

Thinking of Huo Junyao's words just now, Huo Jingzhi and Huo Jinyan immediately understood in their hearts.

Although the Yu Dynasty also raised its own sheep, most of them would still import from neighboring countries, not to mention that they did not deal with the Turks, but they would also import a lot of cattle and sheep from the Turks every year.

Now the price of mutton has skyrocketed, and it is more than the highest price in previous years, why is this?

Naturally, it is because there are fewer imported sheep, why is this happening?

"No, the old man has to go back to the capital immediately."

"I'll go back after eating, what's the hurry."

The eldest princess of Ningyang pulled Huo Jingzhi, who had already stood up.

"I have a chance to eat this in the future, I have to go to the market to investigate and inquire first, and then enter the palace, this is big news."

Seeing that he was so anxious, the eldest princess of Ningyang also knew that the matter was not small, so she did not stop it.

Huo Jingzhi quickly returned to the capital, and the first thing he did was to go to the market and inquire about the price of mutton and some beef cattle.

This inquiry was terrible, almost doubled, and the merchants also said that there were very few cattle and sheep coming from the Turkic side, and the price would inevitably rise in the future, and it might even rise to two or three times.

After getting these investigation results, Huo Jingzhi immediately went to the palace non-stop.

"Respectful of it? Didn't you say that Xiu Mu went out of the city today? ”

When Emperor Zhaowu heard Gao Fu say that Ji Guogong asked to see him, he was slightly stunned.

Recently, there have been a lot of things in the imperial court, and Huo Jingzhi has been busy with work.

Seeing that his mental state was not very good, and Huo Jingzhi also muttered from time to time that he hadn't gone outside the city to see the county lord of Zhaode for a long time, so he gave him a day off, first, to let him have a good rest, and secondly, to let him go outside the city to see his daughter.

I didn't think that after only half a day, he would come back.

"Let him in."

Huo Jingzhi quickly entered the imperial study, without waiting for Emperor Zhaowu to ask why he came back.

Just listen to Huo Jingzhi said; "Your Majesty, the minister just got a big news, maybe it will be a good opportunity for us to attack the Turks."

Hearing this, Emperor Zhaowu didn't bother to ask him why he came back, and hurriedly asked; "What's the big news?"

Then Huo Jingzhi went to the outside of the city, and accidentally talked about the Turkic seizure of the border, focusing on what Huo Junyao said.

After listening, Emperor Zhaowu's eyes burst into light.

"Yes, the Turks are located in the north, and the snow disaster on our side is so serious, how can they escape?"

"The emperor also has news, the price of mutton in the capital has risen very quickly recently, it has been double the ordinary price, and the minister went to the market just now to inquire, and those merchants said that the cattle and sheep from the Turkic side have decreased sharply, and the price may continue to rise in the future."

"Chen thinks that the Turkic side must have encountered a more serious snow disaster, causing many cattle and sheep to freeze to death, so this is the case."

Emperor Zhaowu nodded again and again, and immediately ordered people to comprehensively investigate the prices of cattle and sheep in the surrounding markets, and at the same time issued an urgent secret order to the border pass, so that they could reject the Turks to check the specific situation of the Turks.

Immediately after the order was given, he summoned all the ministers to discuss the matter.

This conversation came in the evening, and the people who investigated the surrounding markets during this period also came back one after another.

The results obtained are the same as what Huo Jingzhi said, and those merchants have made it clear that the cattle and sheep from the Turkic side have decreased sharply, and the price will continue to rise.

"Your Majesty, this is an opportunity, although we have difficulties, but the Turkic side is even more difficult, this battle must be fought, but there is still a hard fight."

"I want to be the vanguard."

Ning Guogong Cheng Yong immediately shouted excitedly.

Right Xiang Fang Qiao also stroked his beard and nodded with a smile; "This battle can indeed be fought, but we still have to wait for the secret report from the border gate to come up and make a decision."

He's not a belligerent, and normally he would hardly support a war, but this time the opportunity was good.

If everything is as analyzed, this battle can indeed cripple the Turks.

Although the consumption will not be less, but now the Turks are eyeing each other, if they do not fight, they will have to sue for peace, and the price paid will definitely not be less.

The left and right have to pay the price, why not just start a war, cripple the other side, so that in the next few years or even more than ten years, they will not suffer from the Turks?

"If the situation is true, the minister will also ask for war."

Zuo Xiang also spoke.

Although the left minister here is a civilian official, the person who holds this position in the Yu Dynasty at this time is not a civilian official, but Li Jiujun, who is known as the military god of the Yu Dynasty.

This Li Jiujun is also the founding hero of the Yu Dynasty, and was named the Duke of the Kingdom, when the imperial Xiao family raised troops, the Emperor Taishang was the generalissimo of soldiers and horses, and this Li Jiujun was the deputy, although he was the deputy, but he did the marshal's business.

It can be said that most of the world of the Yu Dynasty was defeated by Li Jiujun.

Later, the Yu Dynasty was established, and Li Jiujun handed over all the military power in order to avoid suspicion, with the intention of withdrawing from the court, but Emperor Zhaowu gave him the position of the head of the hundred officials in order not to let people say that his Xiao family could not tolerate meritorious heroes.

It can be regarded as worthy of his merits for the founding of the Yu Dynasty.
