After seeing Zhao Kuangyi stand up, Han Qinhu, who had just competed with him for the expedition, couldn't help but stand up.
"Your Majesty, I am also willing to lead troops to quell the chaos..."
The civil servants looked at them with surprise and anger.
The conversation we just stopped was picked up again by you Qiu Ba people?
I'm really afraid of you!
"Wu and Yue have been feuding for a long time, and the scope of the war is not large! There is no disturbance in the normal life of the people! If the imperial court sends troops at will, the war will inevitably double! It will be the people of the two countries who will suffer!"
"The national treasury is already empty, how can we use money to raise useless troops?"
"Yes, you are ambitious! For your own selfish interests, you want to bring disaster to the people of Wu and Yue! You should be punished..."
Li Qian looked at the noisy court below and let out a long sigh.
Now we are back to the same situation, with no progress at all.
If this continues, when will this matter come to an end?
The sun was rising high, and the dazzling sunlight shone in from outside the temple.
Li Qian had not eaten any water or rice since he got up in Yinshi. Now he was so hungry that he felt dizzy. He suddenly had the urge to turn around and leave.
Horse riding...
Li Qian gritted his teeth and murmured in a low voice: "Aren't these old guys hungry?"
"Did they all eat before going to court? They are really cunning!"
His eyes were constantly scanning the queue of ministers below, and he found that no matter how fierce the quarrel was, the highest-ranking civil servants and generals did not move.
"Sitting so peacefully? These old guys must have had breakfast..."
Li Qian wanted to cause trouble for them, but he knew clearly that he couldn't afford to offend these people.
Li Yuan, Zhao Kuangyin, Yang Jian, Qin Hui, Wei Zheng...
Wei Zheng?
Li Qian was startled when he realized who this person was.
Isn’t it said that he dares to speak out and sarcastically?
Why haven't you spoken until now?
The reputation of Wei Zhengzhichen was extremely loud in his previous life, and Li Qian subconsciously regarded him as one of his own.
"Ahem~"
Li Qian cleared his throat, and the officials who were arguing fiercely gradually stopped and looked at the dragon throne.
Li Qian looked at Wei Zheng expectantly: "Wei Qing's family, what will the court do? Do you also think that we should not send troops?"
In the front row, the eyes of Yan Song and others suddenly tightened, and they seemed to be very at odds with Wei Zheng.
Wei Zheng, who had a short beard, first raised his hand to Li Qian after standing up, and then solemnly said: "No."
"Your Majesty, the State of Wu has ignored the authority of my court by launching a rash war, and shall be punished!"
The civil servants glared at him. You, Wei Zheng, who has thick eyebrows and big eyes, dare to betray the civil servants!
The military attachés looked at Wei Zheng's expressions with joy. There were also people with similar ideas among the civil servants!
Li Qian was also a little surprised: "Then the Wei Qing family also thinks they should send troops?"
Wei Zheng shook his head again: "No!"
"Your Majesty, you have recklessly mobilized troops to harm the people and money. Besides, the generals who went out to fight must have selfish motives. It is the people of Wu and Yue who will suffer."
The smiles of the generals froze on their faces.
After the initial surprise, the civil servants were not surprised at all.
It's okay to argue with both sides. This is very Wei Zheng.
Li Qian was also speechless: "Then what good strategy does the Wei Qing family have to pacify Wu Yue?"
Wei Zheng replied in a bachelor's manner: "I am stupid, no."
“But please put all these quarrelsome people in jail and hold them accountable for their crimes!!”
"Because these people don't want to serve the country, they only seek personal gain!"
All go to jail??
Don’t think about serving the country, just seek personal gain???
These words were nothing more than a huge thunder that exploded directly in the court hall.
Li Qian looked at Wei Zheng in confusion, and was shocked by his arrogance.
This "mirror of the king" actually said such a thing!
Doesn’t this offend everyone?
Li Qian forced a smile on his face: "You and your family are just discussing government affairs normally, so... what kind of crime is this?"
If, as Wei Zheng said, he ordered these people to be imprisoned, they might turn against him the next moment.
Many ministers also came to their senses and looked at Wei Zheng angrily: "That's right! I'm just here to express my views on politics, so what's my crime?"
"Master Wei, as a remonstrating minister, how can you talk nonsense?"
"This is a real slander..."
Wei Zheng ignored them and continued to shout to Li Qian: "Your Majesty!"
"The reason why these military attachés are vying to send troops is to gain profits in Wu and Yue, and to seize the people's wealth! Marshal Zhao Kuangyin and General Yang Jian have already had evil intentions. Your Majesty must not let them send troops or treat them as powerful!"
"Civil officials don't want to send troops because sending troops must allocate military expenditures! All the money has been stolen by the military generals, so they have nothing to be greedy for!"
After Wei Zheng finished speaking, you could hear needles dropping in the huge Qianyang Palace.
Many civil servants and generals looked at Wei Zheng in shock and anger.
Especially the soldiers under Zhao Kuangyin and Yang Jian, the murderous intent on their faces was undisguised!
Conspiracy, how serious a crime is this?
If looks could kill, Wei Zheng might have died a thousand times over at this moment!
Li Qian also looked at Wei Zheng dumbfounded.
Fierce... so fierce... I really dare to say anything...
He is not a fool, so he doesn't know the selfish intentions of civil servants and generals!
It's just that it's one thing to know, but it's another thing to expose it in public!
Li Qian turned his eyes to Zhao Kuangyin and Yang Jian, who were at the forefront of the military attachés, and found that their faces were normal and there was nothing unusual about them.
But the ministers in the rear were not so calm.
Both civil servants and military generals called out to Chongtian Qu one after another and began to fight back:
"Your Majesty, Wei Zheng is talking nonsense and bringing trouble to the imperial court. Please, Your Majesty, kill this thief!"
"Your Majesty, I am extremely loyal! Now I am accused of being greedy for money by Wei Zheng's thieves! I am unjustly accused!"
"As a remonstrating minister from Taiwan, I don't think about correcting things, but instead like to make flattering remarks!"
"This won't work, that won't work either. Mr. Wei can't come up with an idea. Could it be that he came to the court to cause trouble?"
"Your Majesty! Please imprison Wei Zheng for his crime!"
"Your Majesty! Please imprison Wei Zheng for his crime..."
Li Qian couldn't help but feel a little numb when he looked at the excited courtiers.
Both civil and military officials were attacking Wei Zheng!
But when he thought of Wei Zheng being imprisoned, Li Qian felt a little resistant.
Because, among the great traitors in the Manchu Dynasty, Wei Zheng was a breath of fresh air and the only one who dared to tell the truth.
Besides, the first thing you do when you become emperor is to put Wei Zheng in prison? This is not a bad time traveler. It is not embarrassing enough to spread the news.
"Ahem!"
Li Qian patted the dragon chair hard, trying to save it.
The voices of the ministers gradually became quieter, but all their eyes looked directly at Li Qian.
Either majestic or majestic...
At this moment, there seemed to be a huge pressure like a sea surging towards Li Qian.
He truly felt the power of Baiguan.
A layer of sweat broke out on Li Qian's forehead, but he still clenched his fists and said, "This dynasty has always had a practice of not punishing ministers for their words, and the Wei Qing family also..."
Halfway through his words, he was interrupted by a minister whose face turned red:
"Your Majesty, what you said is wrong! The remonstrating officials acted as usual, and naturally they are not guilty. But Wei Zheng is arrogant and incompetent, using grandstanding words to attract public attention, and doing things that disrupt the imperial court! How can such a traitor be compared with ordinary remonstrating officials!"
"Your Majesty, don't make mistakes! Wei Zheng is incompetent and jealous of talents! He is a traitor to the country!"
"His Majesty Wanwang has made a fair decision and will punish Wei Zhengming..."
All the high-ranking officials in the scarlet robes used to be the ones who kept their word in front of their subordinates.
Or they are waving the jade tablet in their hands, their beards and hair are spread out, or their faces show a solemnity that cannot be rejected, majestic and solemn...
Li Qian's face was a little pale, he squeezed the armrest of the dragon chair tightly and looked at the excited courtiers.
