Chapter 896

As soon as Wei Zheng's words fell, Ma Zhou lost his voice and said: "Eastern Expedition? This is absolutely impossible! The lessons learned from the previous Sui Dynasty, the Eastern Expedition is nothing more than a waste of money and people!"

Wei Zheng nodded and said: "It is true that Goguryeo's annexation of Silla is not good for the Tang Dynasty, but the Eastern Conquest is even more bad for the Tang Dynasty. The prosperity has only just begun, so how can it be ruined overnight? So no matter what, the imperial court cannot send troops!"

Ma Zhou couldn't help but nod when he heard this. Although the world is peaceful and the country is peaceful and the people are safe, no matter how rich his family is, he can't resist the tossing and tossing of millions of teachers?

If you really want to start the Eastern Expedition, then once, twice, three times...

Thinking of this, Ma Zhou couldn't help but take a deep breath, he must not send troops to Liaodong.

Not only Ma Zhou and Wei Zheng were discussing, but also civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty.

Since Silla came to ask for help, there were only two possibilities, either to send troops or not to send troops.

If you don't send troops, then let Goguryeo annex Silla and increase its strength greatly. If you send troops, everyone can't help feeling awe-inspiring when they think of conquering Liaodong.

Lessons learned from the previous Sui Dynasty!

The entire imperial court was discussing it, and the news spread wildly in Chang'an City.

Even the common people in the market are talking about it.

Some say that Silla is a vassal state of the Tang Dynasty, and has always been obedient to the Tang Dynasty. If the majesty of the Tang Dynasty is ignored, Goguryeo will take the opportunity to become bigger and more rampant.

Some people say that Silla is Silla. After all, it is not the land of Tang Dynasty. It is not worthwhile to send troops for Silla and Goguryeo.

The former Sui Dynasty mobilized millions of troops three times in a row but failed to take down Goguryeo. It can be seen how difficult Goguryeo is, and it is really inappropriate to mobilize troops for Silla.

Some people think that at one time and another, Emperor Sui Yang was besieged by the Turks at Yanmen Pass, but now the Eastern Turks were destroyed by the Tang Dynasty?

The Great Tang is the Great Tang, the former Sui is the former Sui, and the current masters are wise and wise, and the national power is strong, which is not comparable to that of the former Sui.

On this day, the city of Chang'an was very lively. Civil servants and friends gathered to discuss, as did generals.

Everyone is concerned about the same question, that is, whether the emperor will send troops to conquer Goguryeo.

Sujiazhuang was also very lively, Cheng Yaojin, Yu Chigong and others all came to Sujiazhuang.

Today's Su Cheng is no longer that fledgling officialdom rookie. Not only is he well-known in the government and the public, but he also has great influence on His Majesty.

Although Cheng Yaojin and the others didn't say anything, they had to admit in their hearts that the current Su Cheng was more able to speak to His Majesty than they were.

"Boy Su, your information is accurate, it's all those civil servants talking nonsense!" Cheng Yaojin yelled.

Yuchi Gong nodded and said: "Indeed, let's see how those speech officials will face you in the future! In my opinion, you should go to His Majesty to report a complaint and kill their prestige!"

Li Ji said with a smile: "The censors will not be punished for their words, so they will not feel that they are wrong!"

Li Xiaogong laughed and said: "It's not just the Censor who wrote to impeach Su Cheng, but also other officials!"

Su Cheng just laughed when he heard that, Li Shimin thought how could Dongzheng punish the civil servants who wrote the letter at this time?

Besides, Su Cheng didn't suffer much. He hid in the Lishan Palace early in the morning, and made the civil officials very angry. On the contrary, the emperor was almost drowned by the spittle of the civil officials.

Cheng Yaojin laughed and said, "I don't know what old man Wei feels like now!"

Yu Chigong also laughed: "Wei Zheng has just been upright all his life, and now the boat capsized in the gutter, but Wei Zheng will do what he says, and he will definitely come to apologize!"

Li Xiaogong laughed and said: "This is really rare to see, Su Cheng, when old man Wei will come to apologize, you can report to us, so we can be a witness!"

Be a fart witness, just watch the fun!Su Cheng was speechless after hearing that, you really don't think it's a big deal to watch the excitement.

Li Ji said in a bad mood: "Okay, you guys, are you really going to watch the fun? Boy Su, don't accept Wei Zheng's plea!"

Su Cheng said with a smile: "Don't worry, Uncle, I understand that Master Wei is also for state affairs. How can I, a junior, really accept Master Wei's plea?"

Cheng Yaojin chuckled and said, "Wei Zheng is very stubborn, but you can't help him!"

Su Cheng felt a little headache when he thought of this, so he could only take one step at a time.

Yu Chigong talked about the business, and asked: "Su Cheng, Silla came to ask for help, do you think it is more likely that His Majesty plans to send troops or not?"

Without hesitation, Su Cheng said decisively: "Of course His Majesty wants to send troops!"

Li Ji, Cheng Yaojin and the others couldn't help being stunned when they heard this. They didn't expect Su Cheng to say it with such certainty, as if it was a matter of course.

Li Ji asked: "Why? Are you so sure?"

Su Cheng smiled and said: "Because I have tested His Majesty's tone."

The reason why Su Cheng told them so happily is because they still need to charge forward in the court!

Cheng Yaojin and the others originally hoped to send troops to fight, but now that they knew what the emperor wanted, they would definitely dance harder.

Li Ji and the others thought that Su Cheng would list a large number of reasons for sending troops, but they never expected such an answer.

No wonder what Su Cheng said was so certain and decisive, it turned out that he had tested His Majesty's tone.

Cheng Yaojin's face flushed with joy when he heard this, he laughed and said, "I knew His Majesty was so talented, and I knew His Majesty would not tolerate such arrogance of Goguryeo!"

Su Cheng said with a smile: "I told the truth to my uncles, but this matter has to be kept secret, and I hope my uncles will not spread it!

Cheng Yaojin and Yu Chigong both patted their chests and said: "Don't worry, Su boy, we are not people who are not strict in speech, we know the seriousness!"

Su Cheng tried not to laugh out loud, aren't you people who are not strict?Are there people in this world who are not strict?

However, although Cheng Yaojin and Yu Chigong were not strict, they knew the seriousness, and they probably would try their best to encourage the generals to agree to send troops.

Cheng Yaojin and the others got the letter of approval from Su Cheng, and left in a hurry, all of them were very excited.

They really want to fight, and they will grow old if they don't fight, and they will have no chance to lead troops to fight in the future.

If His Majesty wants to send troops to the east, the battle will definitely not be small.Goguryeo is not comparable to a small country like Gaochang.

It is enough to choose a general to lead tens of thousands of troops to conquer Gaochang, but it is not so easy to conquer Goguryeo.

Su Cheng returned to the inner courtyard, the upper room was quiet, Su Cheng waved his hand to signal the maids to keep quiet, and walked in gently.

I saw Princess Changle sitting in front of the window quietly lost in thought, with a dazed expression on her face.

It seems that Princess Changle already knew the news of the arrival of the Silla envoy, otherwise her mood would not be so low.
