Jiang Ning has not asked about the East Village construction site recently, so Liu Zhong is too lazy to report and pretends to investigate. Hu Yawen also cooperates, interrogating one or two people every day, fooling...
On this day, the Ministry of Rites received a letter from the Northern Wolf Clan, also known as the Northern Desert.
The letter stated that the ninth princess of the Northern Desert Royal Family was going to visit the Wu Dynasty and wanted to see the mountains and rivers of the Central Plains.
Above the Golden Palace, the Minister of Rites, who was also the Prime Minister Yang Hui, read out an excerpt...
All the civil and military officials present could not help but change their faces when they heard this.
Jiang Ning also frowned. He knew that the Northern Desert was located in the north and had always been eyeing the Central Plains. He felt that if something went wrong, there must be a monster.
However, I didn’t say much, as I wanted to hear the thoughts of the ministers present.
"Dear ladies, what do you think of this letter?"
Yang Hui was the first to express his views and said: "Your Majesty, things may not be that simple! Three years ago, there was a big war between Beimo and Wu Dynasty. Wu Dynasty was defeated and lost one hundred thousand taels of silver and
Twenty thousand cattle, tens of thousands of gold and silver jewels, and even skilled craftsmen, I feel that this letter is more than just a letter..."
"yes!"
"I think so too!"
"Why does the Ninth Princess want to visit the mountains and rivers of Wu Dynasty? To put it bluntly, she just wants to get involved in our Wu Dynasty again!"
"Back then, we lost so much in exchange for five years of peace. Now, only three years have passed, and they can't stand it any longer. Your Majesty, the people of the Northern Desert are all ambitious. We should reject their request!"
"That's right..."
"But have you ever thought about what we will face after rejection?"
"Will Beimo take this opportunity to send troops? To be honest, these should all be taken into consideration!"
Above the Golden Palace, voices of discussion rang out one after another.
We are all smart people, so we can naturally see the clues.
It's the Northern Desert in the north, and it's itching again...
If we agree, we will automatically be dwarfed by the Northern Desert. If we don't agree, they may start a war.
For this powerful country, it is not a waste of effort to bully a country that is recuperating.
In this era, whoever has the strongest fist is the king!
Jiang Ning nodded, "My dear friends, what you said makes sense. No matter what choice you make, the Wu Dynasty will suffer!"
Xu Wenqing stood up at this time and said: "Your Majesty, I think that this time in Beimo, we are just testing it first. Since they have opened this door, why don't we welcome the Ninth Princess with a heavy gift so that everyone in the world can see it?"
The magnanimity of our Wu Dynasty will provide Wu Dynasty with an opportunity to recuperate and recuperate... If we refuse, we may start a war!"
"Now, the Wu Dynasty does not have the ability to start a war!"
There are internal and external troubles, and a war would destroy all lives.
Yang Hui also said: "Your Majesty, what Xu Shangshu said is that we must not refuse now!"
Why doesn't Jiang Ning understand this easy-to-understand truth?
"What you said is what I thought of!"
"This letter..."
At this moment, Liu Zhong suddenly stood up and said: "Your Majesty, our Wu Dynasty is a great power in the center, how can we bow to those vulgar people? I think that the northern and southern armies of our Wu Dynasty total 200,000, which is not bad.
Fight! To avenge the great revenge three years ago!"
This Liu Zhong is really afraid that the world will not be in chaos.
Jiang Ning spat in his heart, Damn it, if the Wu Dynasty is torn apart, what good will it do to him?
True Nima will not settle accounts!
Ye Wen, Minister of War, said: "Your Majesty, I have reviewed the war three years ago. The three armies led by the Imperial Guard were defeated. I don't think what the Imperial Guard said was right!"
"You..." Liu Zhong was brought down on the spot, blowing his beard and staring in anger.
Worri!
When Jiang Ning heard this, he felt happy. His new team was pretty good. At least they would tell the truth when they had something to say.
"Master, don't be angry. As long as it's true, we can't deny it. What do you think?"
Liu Zhong was so angry that his teeth itched, and he had no choice but to nod with a dark face.
"Yes...Your Majesty!"
Jiang Ning nodded and said slowly: "Anyway, since Beimo has made this request, we can't ignore it. Since we are shorter, we will greet him with national gifts!"
Hearing this, all the civil and military officials present frowned.
"Your Majesty, the state ceremony should be to welcome their king, not a ninth princess!"
"yes!"
"Your Majesty, I believe that this mouth cannot be opened. Once it is opened, I'm afraid..." Someone was half-sentence and did not dare to continue.
National gifts are used to welcome the emperors of various countries, and now they are welcoming a princess.
One can imagine what kind of position it has lifted Beimo to.
Naturally, Wu Chao himself was ruthlessly suppressed, and it was no longer as simple as bowing his head.
Jiang Ning wanted to be Gou Jian, and he had to endure hardships until the opportunity came, and he would pay back the humiliation he suffered this time.
Of course, his premise is that it must be obscene and developed.
When the time comes, go back and fight again!
For the Wu Dynasty, which was waiting to be revitalized, what it needed most was time.
As long as there is enough time, Jiang Ning believes that he will be able to reach an unprecedented height.
"Don't raise any objections, just do as I say!" Jiang Ning said.
All the civil and military officials looked at each other and did not dare to say anything.
After all, the emperor's golden words are true.
"I obey!"
Jiang Ning's eyes fell on Yang Hui again and said: "Mr. Yang, if you come to greet us next time, I will leave everything to you!"
"Yes...Your Majesty!"
When Jiang Ning announced this decision, a ball of fire filled his chest.
"If you have something to do, start to act, if nothing happens, leave the court!"
All civil and military officials, silent, bowed and sent Emperor Wu off respectfully.
Jiang Ning strode out of the Golden Palace, took a scimitar, and went to the imperial garden to slash and vent his anger.
Angry, so angry...
One knife after another.
Regarding today's decision in the Golden Palace, Jiang Ning was purely helpless, because it was simply impossible not to do so. He could only give in and show kindness in order to gain opportunities.
To start a war with Bei Mo, you must at least wait until you have resolved your domestic worries.
otherwise…
Starting a war is a dead end. Jiang Ning has settled this issue clearly.
In front of me, broken limbs of trees kept falling down from before my eyes.
Because he hesitated too much, he swung out the knife and accidentally slipped it on his palm. A bright red gash oozed out on the spot. The wound was a bit ferocious. A blood line ran down the side of his hand. Drops of blood fell on it.
In the dirt...but he didn't care and continued to slash!
Not long after, Liu Yunxiang passed by the Royal Garden. When she saw this scene, her beautiful eyes immediately widened. Her expression became panicked, her face was full of concern, and she quickened her pace, "Your Majesty... Your Majesty, you are all injured. Stop practicing. Hurry... go...
