Chapter 103 For the dignity of Wei, we must start a war! 【Ask monthly ticket】
Gao Yangguo asked Wei Wei to give 100 million taels of silver?
As soon as the Minister of the Ministry of War said this sentence.
Everyone present couldn't help turning their heads, their eyes were full of unkindness.
Even Wei Yunyi was stunned at this moment.
Gaoyang country.
It is a vassal state of the Wei Dynasty, located outside the border of Liaodong.
Because of this suzerain-vassal relationship, Gao Yang has always respected Great Wei.
In addition to the necessary tribute every year, domestic officials and literati will also be sent here to study.
Whether it is economy or culture, they are extremely similar to the Central Plains, and even the language must be mastered by the upper class of Gaoyang Kingdom.
Even the country name of Gaoyang was bestowed by Emperor Gao of the Taizu.
More importantly, the successive kings of Gaoyang.
It must also be canonized by the Great Wei Emperor before it can be regarded as justified.
In short, except that Gao Yang does not belong to Great Wei in name, everything else needs to be suppressed.
And now, there are floods in their country.
Actually asked Wei to pay
No wonder the eyes of the ministers present changed.
Just imagine, a country that pays tribute to itself every year suddenly turns around and asks you for money, and no one will like it.
"When did it happen?" Wei Yunyi thought for a while and asked.
"Just after the news from the Northern Frontier Army."
The Minister of the Ministry of War immediately said: "The Ministry of Rites also knows about this matter. Wang Shangshu and I also investigated it. There was indeed a flood in Gaoyang Kingdom, but it was not serious. At most, it caused Gao Yang to reduce some of his financial income."
"As for the people of Gaoyang Kingdom being affected by the disaster, we don't know the details because it happened so suddenly."
After the news from the Northern Army?
When everyone heard this, they all frowned.
Although the flood did happen, this request was a bit of a coincidence.
Whoever is not a smart person here has smelled something unusual in it.
"What about the solution from the Ministry of Rites?" Wei Yunyi nodded and continued to ask.
For vassal states, and exchanges between other states.
Usually carried out by the Ministry of Rites.
At certain times, the Ministry of War will also come forward to negotiate.
As for the reason, it's also very simple, because some things can't be solved by just talking.
At the critical moment, if you show off your muscles, the effect will often be better than extravagant hype.
"Report to Your Majesty." At this time, the cabinet scholar and minister of the Ministry of Rites also came out, and respectfully said: "The Ministry of Rites was very concerned about this news at first, so it sent people to contact Gaoyang Kingdom. After all, it was a natural disaster, so there was no embarrassment. them."
"Of course, it is impossible to come up with 100 million silver, so Wei Chen and Master Lin gave a solution."
"That is to exempt half of Gaoyang Kingdom's tribute this year. Before that, I have been paying attention to Gaoyang Kingdom's finances."
"Their treasury is still full. With the exemption of tribute, this problem should be solved by itself."
Exempt half of the tribute from the vassal state.
This kind of thing happens from time to time, let alone at other times.
Take the first emperor's period as an example, it was carried out five or six times, so the emperor did not need to make a decision himself.
"Then what's the result?" Wei Yunyi thought for a while, recalling the plot related to the original book.
"Gao Yangguo's attitude is very firm, and we must pay for it."
Wang Shangshu of the Ministry of Rites hesitated for a moment, and continued: "They said that for more than 100 years, the things that Gao Yang paid tribute to Wei, in exchange for money, were at least tens of millions of taels. of."
As soon as this word comes out.
All the ministers, including Zhang Zhengming, were angry at the same time.
Exempting half of the tribute is already a kindness from Wei for understanding the difficulties of their Gaoyang country.
Now the other party refuses to agree or say anything, and even uses the things they have paid tribute for 100 years as an issue?
I don't know which ministers were present.
The reason why Gaoyang Kingdom became a subsidiary of the Great Wei was not only because Emperor Taizu Gao sent troops to invade at the beginning of the founding of the country, but the alliance was concluded after losing in the end?
And over the past 100 years, although Great Wei has received a lot of tribute, he will send people to give money every year to help Gao Yangguo.
Their private schools, classics, and even the reclamation of wasteland, which one thing did Wei not participate in?
Without these, he, Gao Yang, is just a foreigner who is better than the prairie barbarians.
Even the Gaoyang Kingdom was invaded by overseas island countries and almost destroyed during the Xiandi period, and it was also the soldiers sent by the Great Wei.
This saved them from the danger of destroying the country.
Not only ungrateful now.
It's shameless to even ask for money!
"Your Majesty!" At this time, Zhang Zhengming thought for a while, and then stood up and said, "Gaoyang Kingdom is shameless, but now the battle in the northern border is about to start, and there are 20 troops on the grassland watching over it."
"The most important thing now is not to be too busy, so I think that money must not be given."
"But you can take a step back and exempt Gaoyang Kingdom from paying tribute this year."
These words made everyone fall into silence.
They didn't speak.
Because I know it's impossible.
If at any other time.
They can completely ignore Gao Yangguo's unreasonable demands, and at worst, send troops directly.
But now, the war in the northern border is about to start. Even if Marquis Shenwu is in command, the specific situation is still hard to say.
Even if the grassland tribes could be repelled, if at this time, Gaoyang Kingdom suddenly returned to the water and launched an attack from Liaodong.
At that time, Wei will face the situation of fighting on two fronts.
And in fact.
With Wei's current strength, there is no problem in dealing with two fronts.
But the problem is that besides Gaoyang and the grasslands, there are also threats from the southern border
So hold on and hold on to Gao Yang for the time being.
That's the smart move.
"My minister agrees with Taifu's opinion." The Minister of Rites thought for a while: "There are still eight departments in the grassland that have not moved. If they suddenly go south at this time, the garrison in the northern border will definitely not be enough. We must mobilize troops from other places. .”
"And the closest place to the northern border, apart from Yandi, is the Liaodong garrison. But once this is the case, they will not be able to deal with Gaoyang Kingdom."
The territory of the Great Wei Dynasty is indeed very large, and it also occupies many rich resources, and its economy is strong.
However, this has also brought about several major problems.
First of all.
It is a land of prosperity since ancient times, which is coveted by everyone.
Such as the grassland tribes, such as the southern border, and outside the northwest region.
Secondly, if the territory is too large, it will border too many countries.
When there was no war, almost no one dared to move. After all, when the Great Wei was founded, it had already beaten almost all the countries in the Eastern Continent.
But once a certain place invades, other countries will be tempted, even if they don't send troops, they will find a way to get some benefits.
Obviously, Gao Yangguo was holding this idea.
And want to govern a country well.
Rely on, not just strength.
It is also necessary to assess the situation and, when necessary, make compromises to ensure the greatest benefit.
In fact, all the cabinet scholars present had this idea in their hearts. Even though they were very shameless and angry at Gao Yangguo's actions, the top priority was to deal with the crisis in the northern border.
No one can bear the consequences of facing a two-line battle and whether the surrounding countries will be dispatched.
So this decision is the best solution at present.
After thinking about the official documents of Lien and Song Dynasties.
In the end, I also thought so, and said: "Minister, second."
Master Lin, Shangshu of the Ministry of War, lowered his head and didn't speak, but he didn't know what he was thinking.
But its meaning is also very obvious.
As for Wei Yunyi.
In the face of everyone's opinions, he didn't speak. He was recalling the plot of the original work.
He knew that when the grassland tribes went south, the Gaoyang Kingdom suddenly launched an attack and demanded that Wei pay 100 million yuan to help the victims.
But in fact, their disaster situation is not serious. Although the people of Gaoyang have suffered losses, they can still survive.Even if the tribute is not exempted, it can be maintained.
Therefore, the real purpose of Gaoyang Kingdom is to use this as an opportunity to exempt all future tributes.
After all, if it is any country, it is not willing to hand over part of it to others every year.
And the original owner, because he was concerned about the grassland tribes.
Therefore, the opinions of Zhang Zhengming and others were finally accepted.
Choosing patience directly exempted the other party from three years of tribute.
As a result, Gaoyang Kingdom gradually invested a large amount of finances in other places, and its economy and military also began to grow, becoming stronger and stronger, and finally became a small overlord among the eastern countries.
Logically speaking, if Wei Yunyi chooses to be a faint king now, he should do the same.
Because as long as Gaoyang Kingdom becomes strong, it will definitely threaten Wei.
In this way, luck will also be affected and weakened.
But in fact.
In the original book, Great Wei is also growing stronger and stronger.
Gaoyang Kingdom is indeed powerful, but it has not become a big threat.
Even though they themselves were dissatisfied with the Great Wei court, they did not dare to really choose to fight.
Especially in the later stage, the original owner also began to choose to start a comprehensive exchange and trade with Gaoyang country.
Under this influence, Wei's economy also began to develop rapidly, and all aspects became stronger.
It can be said that if he chooses to compromise this time, in the short term, he will be weak to the outside world, which is in line with the act of a foolish king.
But if you take a long-term view, there are actually many benefits.
And the reason why Wei reached the peak in the end has a great relationship with this matter.
Therefore, compromise is impossible.
You have to think of other ways!
Thoughts so far.
Wei Yunyi raised his head, looked at the crowd, his eyes gradually changed, and said, "Gaoyang Kingdom is taking advantage of this opportunity, just wanting to cheat, because it is expected that I, Great Wei, will have to deal with grassland tribes and worry about other countries. They have no skills at all, so they dare not take tough measures."
"But over the years, how did my Great Wei help Gao Yangguo? But they did such a thing, it's extremely shameful."
"Everyone, just imagine, if you choose to compromise today and exempt Gao Yangguo from entering the palace, what about tomorrow?"
Speaking of this, he narrowed his eyes, and continued: "I am afraid that I will ask to be exempted from all future tributes. If things go on like this, the majesty of my Great Wei will plummet, and the nations will think that my Great Wei is weak and deceitful."
"Then other vassal states also made similar rude requests. At that time, will I agree or not?"
Wei Yunyi's words can be said to be resounding, completely starting from the majesty of Great Wei.
Especially in that speech, there was absolutely nothing wrong with it.
Other countries except Gaoyang.
The reason why he chose to surrender was because of the strength of Emperor Taizu Gao.
And they didn't dare to confront the Great Wei head-on, so they could only choose to become subordinates and pay tribute every year for safety.
But at this time, if you choose to show weakness, will it give the eastern countries an illusion that Great Wei is dead?
In this way, I am afraid that the crisis encountered may be even greater!
All the ministers looked at each other when they heard the words.
They naturally understand the truth of this.
But that's something that can't be helped, but His Majesty's words are completely correct and cannot be refuted.
In the end, Zhang Zhengming sighed, then walked forward, and couldn't help asking: "Then what does His Majesty mean?"
"I've heard a saying that if you hit one punch, you won't get a hundred punches!"
With a cold look in Wei Yunyi's eyes, he continued: "Under this situation, I, Great Wei, must be strong. Whether it is against the grassland or against the surrounding countries, we must not choose to compromise just because of a temporary predicament. Gao Yangguo wants me, Great Wei, to take out 100 million taels of silver, what is this? It's coercion, it's taking advantage of the fire, and we must deal with this kind of thing resolutely!"
"I have said so much, but I can sum it up in one sentence, that is to start a war!"
Go to war?
As soon as this word comes out.
All the ministers present were dumbfounded.
I thought that although His Majesty was very angry about this.
But at most, it was just a tough attitude, not agreeing to Gao Yangguo's unreasonable intercession.
But what they didn't expect was that His Majesty would go to war directly.
"Your Majesty, this is absolutely impossible."
Minister of the Ministry of Rites stood up and said: "Although there are many garrisons in Liaodong, they are almost all prepared for the northern border. If you choose to go to war at this time, you can only mobilize [-] to [-] troops at most. Although other prefectures also have garrisons, But mobilizing it also takes time and a lot of money.”
"Especially, the situation in the northern border is severe now. If we start a war easily, it may put us in a disadvantageous position."
The combined total of all Wei's troops is indeed more than a million.
But more than [-]% of them are prepared for grasslands.
In addition, there is also the need to deal with pirates and defend the southern border.
So can't move at all.
Otherwise, if other countries invade, it will be difficult to resist.
The garrison in Liaodong has always cooperated with the garrison in the north, and most of them cannot be moved.
Therefore, the words of Shangshu of the Ministry of Rites are based on the actual situation, not alarmist talk.
Even Zhang Zhengming, who was standing aside, frowned.
Knowing that if the war starts again, a series of things will happen.
Of course, there is a more important point, that is, the treasury of Great Wei is difficult to support the two-front battle. Even if the army is enough, it cannot move without money.
So although he didn't speak, he obviously preferred not to start a war.
"If we don't start a war, will Gao Yang be allowed to humiliate my Great Wei like this?"
Wei Yunyi turned his head, and immediately said: "I, Great Wei, since I am the lord of the Central Plains, must show a corresponding majesty and attitude, otherwise how can I convince the public?"
"Besides, Gaoyang is only a small country. To deal with him, [-] to [-] troops from Liaodong is enough."
"As for the garrisons prepared for the northern border, there is no need to move at all, and it will not affect the overall situation!"
At this moment, there are only two things Wei Yunyi thinks about.
One is to launch a war directly, no matter what the final result is.
After going through this battle, Gao Yang and Da Wei are bound to turn against each other, so the comprehensive communication after that is completely out of the question.
In this way, in this respect, the growth of Wei's luck can be completely restrained.
The second is to start a war, which consumes money and national strength the most.
Don't you see that the army is aggressive, and it seems that it has won a lot of victories, but the national strength is deteriorating.
At the same time, he also knew that it was difficult for the current treasury of Great Wei to support two-front warfare. Even if it could, it would be completely empty after the fight.
Of course, there is another fundamental reason why Wei Yunyi launched the war, that is, he expected that with the current national strength of Gaoyang Kingdom, he would not be able to defeat Wei at all. But Gao Yangguo didn't have the courage.
That's why it is said that it is enough for Liaodong to send [-] to [-] troops.
Because what he thinks is very simple.
It is to let the Liaodong war enter a situation of pulling each other.
Firstly, they can continue to consume national power, and secondly, they dare not directly start a war with each other easily, avoiding various losses.
But there is another possibility.
That is, the [-] to [-] soldiers and horses in Liaodong can defeat Gaoyang State.
It's just that Wei Yunyi thinks that this possibility is too low. First of all, the overall strength of the Liaodong garrison is not comparable to that of the northern garrison, and Gao Yang is also a country, and there is no problem in gathering an army of 30 to [-].
Wei Yunyi didn't believe that in a situation of five to one, or even six to one, Da Wei could still win.
It can be said that this decision of mine is definitely the wisest.
Five or sixty thousand troops.
Go to war directly against a country?
Even Zhang Zhengming was stunned when he heard it.
He admits that Gaoyang country is not good, its national strength is not strong, but with only such a small number of people, it will go to war.
Is it too childish?
And the thoughts of the other ministers are similar, thinking about whether to persuade His Majesty?
But obviously, since Wei Yunyi has made a decision, he will not change it, so he looked at everyone and said solemnly: "My intention has been decided, there is no need to discuss this matter, you just need to prepare!"
This is the advantage of being an emperor. Even if there is a cabinet, once you express your attitude, it cannot be resisted.
Especially what he said was not only well-founded, but also based on the dignity of the Wei Dynasty.
If someone stood up to oppose it at this time, it would be disregarding the dignity of the country.
At this moment, the ministers didn't say much, they could only respectfully say: "Minister, please follow the order!"
At the same time, Minister of the Ministry of War paused, and continued: "However, Your Majesty, if you want to use troops against Gao Yang, who should you appoint as the commander?"
Others are also thinking about this question. The Liaodong garrison is not as good as the northern border, but there are many generals who can lead the army.
It's just that most of these generals are prepared for the northern border.
Because the northern border defense line is really too big.
Even with Marquis Shenwu here.
But in other places, there must be capable generals, right?
However, they feel that this matter is not difficult and they can transfer people from other places.
The current Great Wei, not to mention the generals like clouds, but it is not difficult to find a general who can deal with Gaoyang Kingdom.
Not to mention Zhang Zhengming, even Song Gongwen can think of several candidates.
"The coach?"
Wei Yunyi was taken aback for a moment, he hadn't thought about this question at all, after all, even the start of the war was decided temporarily.
But soon, a young candidate suddenly appeared in his mind.
Immediately looking at the crowd, he said with a soft smile: "I have made my own decision on this, you don't have to worry about it for the time being, you just need to prepare for the use of troops against Gaoyang Kingdom."
After hearing the words, several cabinet scholars didn't say much at the moment.
His Majesty has made his own decisions, just obey orders.
Master Lin, Shangshu of the Ministry of War, took a step forward and said solemnly: "It is Your Majesty, and the Ministry of War will definitely prepare as soon as possible."
This sentence made Song Gongwen next to him startled. When you were about to withdraw from Gaoyang Kingdom and compromise, you didn't say anything. Now that His Majesty is going to start a big war, why do you still look a little excited?
"Is there anything else you need to do, Ai Qing?" Wei Yunyi asked immediately when he saw that the matter had been settled.
"I have no objection!"
The five cabinet scholars answered in unison.
Without hesitation immediately, he resigned and turned to leave the Imperial Study Room.
As for Wei Yunyi, he looked at the sky outside, it was almost noon.
Now it's meal time, so let Wang Jin drive to the empress's Kunshou Palace, and as for those excerpts, he ordered someone to send them to Concubine Ying's bedroom.
at the same time.
"Master Lin!"
Song Gongwen who just left the imperial study.
After privately agreeing with Zhang Zhengming to meet later, Zou hurriedly caught up with Minister of the Ministry of War.
Although he is also a member of the cabinet, in fact, he does not have much affection for Mr. Lin.
Because this person was born in the south of the Yangtze River, although he is not that kind of big family, not even the four major families in Longyang, but in fact, he also belongs to the gentry faction.
Song Gongwen even heard that when he was promoting the reform before, after the other party also submitted a memorial, his favorability plummeted.
But Nai He really had some doubts in his heart, so he had to catch up.
"Master Song, what's the matter?"
The Shangshu of the Ministry of War is surnamed Lin, and his first name is Yuansong. He looks very old-fashioned.
After being called to a halt, his face was slightly displeased, but he did not leave.
"Master Lin," Song Gongwen cupped his hands slightly, and said, "Forgive me, I do have a question, that is, today's meeting before the imperial court, to discuss matters concerning the Gaoyang Kingdom, why did you not express your attitude before?"
As the Minister of the Ministry of War, the opponent's words are very important in this matter.
In particular, the matter of Gaoyang Kingdom was also brought up by the other party.
But the problem is that this person has not spoken in the early stage.
But finally at the end.
When His Majesty decided to use troops against Gao Yang, he asked about the candidate for the commander.
In Song Gongwen's understanding, it is obviously not the wisest choice for His Majesty to suddenly start a war now.
Others also expressed their views.
But the only thing missing is the Minister of the Ministry of War who is most qualified to speak, so he doesn't say anything.
If the other party can also oppose the dispatch of troops like other colleagues, maybe His Majesty will change his mind, but the other party has not done anything.He was naturally surprised, and wanted to ask why.
Although I also know that it is a bit abrupt to speak directly like this.
Beside, Lin Yuansong frowned slightly after hearing the words.
"Lord Song, you should know that I also belong to the gentry faction, and I don't agree with your promotion of sharing the income from the family to the mu. I have also made several memorials, imploring His Majesty to take back the order of the reform, so I, to you, also Unsatisfactory."
"Master Song please forgive me, I just speak so straightforwardly."
Straight, you must be straight!
But in front of His Majesty, you are so straightforward!
Song Gongwen was silent to himself, but there was still a smile on his face, and he said immediately: "Of course I know what Mr. Lin is like."
Lin Yuansong nodded, and then continued: "But I also know that it's just that you and I have different factions and political opinions. I'm dissatisfied with you only because of business, not private."
"As for the question raised by Mr. Song, I will naturally not pretend to be profound, and it's okay to tell you."
Having said that, his expression became serious, and then he said: "I, Lin Yuansong, am Minister of the Ministry of War, Mr. Song, since I am the Minister of the Ministry of War, how can I compromise with others? Is it a small country like Gaoyang?"
"It's their shamelessness that comes first, so don't blame us for being unrighteous, so I absolutely agree and support His Majesty's decision!"
"Even though this decision may have some consequences, as Minister of the Ministry of War, I not only want to safeguard the dignity of Wei."
"More importantly, I also represent all the soldiers of Great Wei. Under such circumstances, I must not compromise!"
"Master Song, do you understand now?"
Lin Yuansong finished speaking.
Immediately ignoring the other party's reaction, he turned and left.
It was just this remark that made Song Gongwen stunned on the spot.
all the time.
He thought that as long as he supported the gentry faction, he was extremely selfish and would not consider it for the country.
But today, because of what Minister of the Ministry of War said today, Song Gongwen's concept has changed.
As the other party said.
Different political opinions are public to public.
But now it is a matter of national dignity, and we must be consistent with the outside world.
Song Gongwen looked at the back of the other party going away, didn't say much, just bowed slightly.
Yes, this is the real courtier of Wei.
He suddenly felt.
Perhaps His Majesty's decision is correct.
Great Wei is the lord of the Central Plains, so he must show his majesty.
Before he knew it, his eyes became firmer, for this battle, he must do his best!
Thinking like this, Song Gongwen turned his head and walked outside the palace.
Kunshou Palace.
The rich vegetable fragrance wafts around.
The queen was sitting in the courtyard, and from time to time someone brought some more delicious food.
But soon, Song Youwei frowned slightly, turned her head to look to the other side and said: "Hongzhi, the food is ready, why don't you come over to eat."
Although today is not the fifteenth day of the lunar new year, it is Song Hongzhi's seventeenth birthday.
So she made the decision directly and asked her younger brother to come to Kunshou Palace for dinner.
It's just that Song Youwei at this moment feels a little strange.
On weekdays.
As long as this younger brother smells the aroma of the dishes he made with his own hands, he will just ignore them, and he will start to gobble them up when the dishes are not ready.
It's just that today, she has been standing by the side, and now that all the dishes are served, she doesn't move.
"I'm coming here."
Not far away, Song Hongzhi also came to his senses when he heard his sister's shout.
Immediately turned around, walked to the table and sat down, but that look did not fall on the food.
"What's the matter? Did you get bullied in the imperial camp?" Seeing this, Song Youwei immediately asked.
"No." Hearing this, Uncle Xiaoguo shook his head, thought for a while, and finally said: "Sister, you should know that the grassland army has invaded recently, and the situation in the northern border is serious."
"Of course I know." The Queen said: "Didn't Your Majesty ask the old Hou Ye to take command in person? Presumably there will be no problem."
The matter in the northern border was so big, even though she was in the harem, of course she heard it many times.
Although I was a little anxious in my heart, I could think of the Empress Shen Wuhou.
I also know that there will be no problem with this matter.
"But why doesn't the emperor's brother-in-law let me go?"
Song Hongzhi's grievances immediately came to the fore, and he couldn't help but said: "The 20 troops of the Ten Grasslands, even the old Hou Ye, must have a headache, and will definitely experience all kinds of tragic fights. If the emperor's brother-in-law lets me go up, then I won't It's the same."
"I can guarantee that within three months, the prairie barbarians will suffer a great loss! A big victory will be won!"
It turned out to be for this matter!
Song Youwei understood completely.
My younger brother was feeling depressed because he saw that there was a battle going on in the northern border, but he couldn't make a move.
It's just that she was a little speechless about what the other party said.
You said that the old Hou Ye was very troubled by this.
Now speak up.
You can win a big victory in three months, who do you think you are?Your idea is very dangerous!
Although she was not surprised by her younger brother's wild words, Song Youwei was still very helpless.
But I also knew that even if I spoke, it was useless, so I couldn't help but continued: "Your Majesty must have thought carefully about not letting you go, and you must be clear that fighting is not a child's play."
"Marquis Shenwu has made outstanding achievements, is mature and prudent, and has almost never failed in battles with grassland tribes."
"It's best to let him go. As for you, you still have to learn the art of war."
These words are similar to what Wei Yunyi said.
Song Hongzhi listened for a while.
I definitely didn't want to listen to it a second time, so I could only curl my lips in the end and said: "That's what you think, but I don't ask much, just let me do it last time, just one chance!"
He knew that in the matter of using troops on the grassland, he would definitely not be able to go.
Speaking now is just to relieve the boredom in my heart.
"Okay, okay, don't think too much!"
Song Youwei stopped persuading her, and continued: "Today is your birthday, be happy. As for the war, you are still young, so don't worry too much."
That's what she said, but the thought in her heart was that it was best for her brother never to go to the battlefield.
After all, swords have no eyes, if anything happens, the Song family will be left behind.
Hearing this, Uncle Xiaoguo sighed.
Looking at the favorite meals on the table, he has no appetite.
"His Majesty is here!"
But at this moment, a voice came from outside Kunshou Palace.
When the two heard the words, they were shocked immediately, and without any hesitation, they bowed to greet them.
Immediately, Wei Yunyi walked in through the main entrance, saw the siblings and smiled softly: "I heard something just now, what opportunity does Uncle Xiao Guo want?"
Now that he is about to enter the seventh rank of martial arts, and the distance is so close, he can naturally hear it.
"Reporting to Your Majesty, Hong Zhizheng is depressed and unable to go to the northern border to fight for the country."
Song Youwei smiled and said: "The concubine is also enlightening him. After all, today is Hongzhi's birthday, so it's better to be happy."
Hearing this, Wei Yunyi noticed that the delicious dishes on the table were very rich.
It turns out that today is my brother-in-law's birthday.
He smiled softly, then turned his head and said, "Uncle Xiao Guo, are you still unhappy about that matter?"
"I..." Song Hongzhi just wanted to say something, but quickly lowered his head and said, "It's true that I'm not happy, but since the emperor's brother-in-law won't let me go, I will naturally listen to the emperor's brother-in-law."
Having said that, there was some sadness in his eyes, it was obvious that he didn't mean what he said!
Naturally, Wei Yunyi could see it, and thinking of today's imperial meeting, he immediately walked up to the other party and said, "I know what you're thinking, and it just so happens that today is your birthday, so I'll give you a chance today, one, A chance to go to the battlefield!"

ps: Typos should be corrected first
In the morning, the landlord suddenly sent a message to increase the rent.
The subscription to this book is too low, and I don't know how much money I can get next month.
No way, I have to start looking for a house, and the update time will definitely become more and more unstable.
But don't worry, gentlemen, at least [-] a day will definitely be guaranteed!
This chapter is eight thousand words!
Continue to scold after dinner in the next chapter, and it will be posted before twelve o'clock!
(End of this chapter)
Gao Yangguo asked Wei Wei to give 100 million taels of silver?
As soon as the Minister of the Ministry of War said this sentence.
Everyone present couldn't help turning their heads, their eyes were full of unkindness.
Even Wei Yunyi was stunned at this moment.
Gaoyang country.
It is a vassal state of the Wei Dynasty, located outside the border of Liaodong.
Because of this suzerain-vassal relationship, Gao Yang has always respected Great Wei.
In addition to the necessary tribute every year, domestic officials and literati will also be sent here to study.
Whether it is economy or culture, they are extremely similar to the Central Plains, and even the language must be mastered by the upper class of Gaoyang Kingdom.
Even the country name of Gaoyang was bestowed by Emperor Gao of the Taizu.
More importantly, the successive kings of Gaoyang.
It must also be canonized by the Great Wei Emperor before it can be regarded as justified.
In short, except that Gao Yang does not belong to Great Wei in name, everything else needs to be suppressed.
And now, there are floods in their country.
Actually asked Wei to pay
No wonder the eyes of the ministers present changed.
Just imagine, a country that pays tribute to itself every year suddenly turns around and asks you for money, and no one will like it.
"When did it happen?" Wei Yunyi thought for a while and asked.
"Just after the news from the Northern Frontier Army."
The Minister of the Ministry of War immediately said: "The Ministry of Rites also knows about this matter. Wang Shangshu and I also investigated it. There was indeed a flood in Gaoyang Kingdom, but it was not serious. At most, it caused Gao Yang to reduce some of his financial income."
"As for the people of Gaoyang Kingdom being affected by the disaster, we don't know the details because it happened so suddenly."
After the news from the Northern Army?
When everyone heard this, they all frowned.
Although the flood did happen, this request was a bit of a coincidence.
Whoever is not a smart person here has smelled something unusual in it.
"What about the solution from the Ministry of Rites?" Wei Yunyi nodded and continued to ask.
For vassal states, and exchanges between other states.
Usually carried out by the Ministry of Rites.
At certain times, the Ministry of War will also come forward to negotiate.
As for the reason, it's also very simple, because some things can't be solved by just talking.
At the critical moment, if you show off your muscles, the effect will often be better than extravagant hype.
"Report to Your Majesty." At this time, the cabinet scholar and minister of the Ministry of Rites also came out, and respectfully said: "The Ministry of Rites was very concerned about this news at first, so it sent people to contact Gaoyang Kingdom. After all, it was a natural disaster, so there was no embarrassment. them."
"Of course, it is impossible to come up with 100 million silver, so Wei Chen and Master Lin gave a solution."
"That is to exempt half of Gaoyang Kingdom's tribute this year. Before that, I have been paying attention to Gaoyang Kingdom's finances."
"Their treasury is still full. With the exemption of tribute, this problem should be solved by itself."
Exempt half of the tribute from the vassal state.
This kind of thing happens from time to time, let alone at other times.
Take the first emperor's period as an example, it was carried out five or six times, so the emperor did not need to make a decision himself.
"Then what's the result?" Wei Yunyi thought for a while, recalling the plot related to the original book.
"Gao Yangguo's attitude is very firm, and we must pay for it."
Wang Shangshu of the Ministry of Rites hesitated for a moment, and continued: "They said that for more than 100 years, the things that Gao Yang paid tribute to Wei, in exchange for money, were at least tens of millions of taels. of."
As soon as this word comes out.
All the ministers, including Zhang Zhengming, were angry at the same time.
Exempting half of the tribute is already a kindness from Wei for understanding the difficulties of their Gaoyang country.
Now the other party refuses to agree or say anything, and even uses the things they have paid tribute for 100 years as an issue?
I don't know which ministers were present.
The reason why Gaoyang Kingdom became a subsidiary of the Great Wei was not only because Emperor Taizu Gao sent troops to invade at the beginning of the founding of the country, but the alliance was concluded after losing in the end?
And over the past 100 years, although Great Wei has received a lot of tribute, he will send people to give money every year to help Gao Yangguo.
Their private schools, classics, and even the reclamation of wasteland, which one thing did Wei not participate in?
Without these, he, Gao Yang, is just a foreigner who is better than the prairie barbarians.
Even the Gaoyang Kingdom was invaded by overseas island countries and almost destroyed during the Xiandi period, and it was also the soldiers sent by the Great Wei.
This saved them from the danger of destroying the country.
Not only ungrateful now.
It's shameless to even ask for money!
"Your Majesty!" At this time, Zhang Zhengming thought for a while, and then stood up and said, "Gaoyang Kingdom is shameless, but now the battle in the northern border is about to start, and there are 20 troops on the grassland watching over it."
"The most important thing now is not to be too busy, so I think that money must not be given."
"But you can take a step back and exempt Gaoyang Kingdom from paying tribute this year."
These words made everyone fall into silence.
They didn't speak.
Because I know it's impossible.
If at any other time.
They can completely ignore Gao Yangguo's unreasonable demands, and at worst, send troops directly.
But now, the war in the northern border is about to start. Even if Marquis Shenwu is in command, the specific situation is still hard to say.
Even if the grassland tribes could be repelled, if at this time, Gaoyang Kingdom suddenly returned to the water and launched an attack from Liaodong.
At that time, Wei will face the situation of fighting on two fronts.
And in fact.
With Wei's current strength, there is no problem in dealing with two fronts.
But the problem is that besides Gaoyang and the grasslands, there are also threats from the southern border
So hold on and hold on to Gao Yang for the time being.
That's the smart move.
"My minister agrees with Taifu's opinion." The Minister of Rites thought for a while: "There are still eight departments in the grassland that have not moved. If they suddenly go south at this time, the garrison in the northern border will definitely not be enough. We must mobilize troops from other places. .”
"And the closest place to the northern border, apart from Yandi, is the Liaodong garrison. But once this is the case, they will not be able to deal with Gaoyang Kingdom."
The territory of the Great Wei Dynasty is indeed very large, and it also occupies many rich resources, and its economy is strong.
However, this has also brought about several major problems.
First of all.
It is a land of prosperity since ancient times, which is coveted by everyone.
Such as the grassland tribes, such as the southern border, and outside the northwest region.
Secondly, if the territory is too large, it will border too many countries.
When there was no war, almost no one dared to move. After all, when the Great Wei was founded, it had already beaten almost all the countries in the Eastern Continent.
But once a certain place invades, other countries will be tempted, even if they don't send troops, they will find a way to get some benefits.
Obviously, Gao Yangguo was holding this idea.
And want to govern a country well.
Rely on, not just strength.
It is also necessary to assess the situation and, when necessary, make compromises to ensure the greatest benefit.
In fact, all the cabinet scholars present had this idea in their hearts. Even though they were very shameless and angry at Gao Yangguo's actions, the top priority was to deal with the crisis in the northern border.
No one can bear the consequences of facing a two-line battle and whether the surrounding countries will be dispatched.
So this decision is the best solution at present.
After thinking about the official documents of Lien and Song Dynasties.
In the end, I also thought so, and said: "Minister, second."
Master Lin, Shangshu of the Ministry of War, lowered his head and didn't speak, but he didn't know what he was thinking.
But its meaning is also very obvious.
As for Wei Yunyi.
In the face of everyone's opinions, he didn't speak. He was recalling the plot of the original work.
He knew that when the grassland tribes went south, the Gaoyang Kingdom suddenly launched an attack and demanded that Wei pay 100 million yuan to help the victims.
But in fact, their disaster situation is not serious. Although the people of Gaoyang have suffered losses, they can still survive.Even if the tribute is not exempted, it can be maintained.
Therefore, the real purpose of Gaoyang Kingdom is to use this as an opportunity to exempt all future tributes.
After all, if it is any country, it is not willing to hand over part of it to others every year.
And the original owner, because he was concerned about the grassland tribes.
Therefore, the opinions of Zhang Zhengming and others were finally accepted.
Choosing patience directly exempted the other party from three years of tribute.
As a result, Gaoyang Kingdom gradually invested a large amount of finances in other places, and its economy and military also began to grow, becoming stronger and stronger, and finally became a small overlord among the eastern countries.
Logically speaking, if Wei Yunyi chooses to be a faint king now, he should do the same.
Because as long as Gaoyang Kingdom becomes strong, it will definitely threaten Wei.
In this way, luck will also be affected and weakened.
But in fact.
In the original book, Great Wei is also growing stronger and stronger.
Gaoyang Kingdom is indeed powerful, but it has not become a big threat.
Even though they themselves were dissatisfied with the Great Wei court, they did not dare to really choose to fight.
Especially in the later stage, the original owner also began to choose to start a comprehensive exchange and trade with Gaoyang country.
Under this influence, Wei's economy also began to develop rapidly, and all aspects became stronger.
It can be said that if he chooses to compromise this time, in the short term, he will be weak to the outside world, which is in line with the act of a foolish king.
But if you take a long-term view, there are actually many benefits.
And the reason why Wei reached the peak in the end has a great relationship with this matter.
Therefore, compromise is impossible.
You have to think of other ways!
Thoughts so far.
Wei Yunyi raised his head, looked at the crowd, his eyes gradually changed, and said, "Gaoyang Kingdom is taking advantage of this opportunity, just wanting to cheat, because it is expected that I, Great Wei, will have to deal with grassland tribes and worry about other countries. They have no skills at all, so they dare not take tough measures."
"But over the years, how did my Great Wei help Gao Yangguo? But they did such a thing, it's extremely shameful."
"Everyone, just imagine, if you choose to compromise today and exempt Gao Yangguo from entering the palace, what about tomorrow?"
Speaking of this, he narrowed his eyes, and continued: "I am afraid that I will ask to be exempted from all future tributes. If things go on like this, the majesty of my Great Wei will plummet, and the nations will think that my Great Wei is weak and deceitful."
"Then other vassal states also made similar rude requests. At that time, will I agree or not?"
Wei Yunyi's words can be said to be resounding, completely starting from the majesty of Great Wei.
Especially in that speech, there was absolutely nothing wrong with it.
Other countries except Gaoyang.
The reason why he chose to surrender was because of the strength of Emperor Taizu Gao.
And they didn't dare to confront the Great Wei head-on, so they could only choose to become subordinates and pay tribute every year for safety.
But at this time, if you choose to show weakness, will it give the eastern countries an illusion that Great Wei is dead?
In this way, I am afraid that the crisis encountered may be even greater!
All the ministers looked at each other when they heard the words.
They naturally understand the truth of this.
But that's something that can't be helped, but His Majesty's words are completely correct and cannot be refuted.
In the end, Zhang Zhengming sighed, then walked forward, and couldn't help asking: "Then what does His Majesty mean?"
"I've heard a saying that if you hit one punch, you won't get a hundred punches!"
With a cold look in Wei Yunyi's eyes, he continued: "Under this situation, I, Great Wei, must be strong. Whether it is against the grassland or against the surrounding countries, we must not choose to compromise just because of a temporary predicament. Gao Yangguo wants me, Great Wei, to take out 100 million taels of silver, what is this? It's coercion, it's taking advantage of the fire, and we must deal with this kind of thing resolutely!"
"I have said so much, but I can sum it up in one sentence, that is to start a war!"
Go to war?
As soon as this word comes out.
All the ministers present were dumbfounded.
I thought that although His Majesty was very angry about this.
But at most, it was just a tough attitude, not agreeing to Gao Yangguo's unreasonable intercession.
But what they didn't expect was that His Majesty would go to war directly.
"Your Majesty, this is absolutely impossible."
Minister of the Ministry of Rites stood up and said: "Although there are many garrisons in Liaodong, they are almost all prepared for the northern border. If you choose to go to war at this time, you can only mobilize [-] to [-] troops at most. Although other prefectures also have garrisons, But mobilizing it also takes time and a lot of money.”
"Especially, the situation in the northern border is severe now. If we start a war easily, it may put us in a disadvantageous position."
The combined total of all Wei's troops is indeed more than a million.
But more than [-]% of them are prepared for grasslands.
In addition, there is also the need to deal with pirates and defend the southern border.
So can't move at all.
Otherwise, if other countries invade, it will be difficult to resist.
The garrison in Liaodong has always cooperated with the garrison in the north, and most of them cannot be moved.
Therefore, the words of Shangshu of the Ministry of Rites are based on the actual situation, not alarmist talk.
Even Zhang Zhengming, who was standing aside, frowned.
Knowing that if the war starts again, a series of things will happen.
Of course, there is a more important point, that is, the treasury of Great Wei is difficult to support the two-front battle. Even if the army is enough, it cannot move without money.
So although he didn't speak, he obviously preferred not to start a war.
"If we don't start a war, will Gao Yang be allowed to humiliate my Great Wei like this?"
Wei Yunyi turned his head, and immediately said: "I, Great Wei, since I am the lord of the Central Plains, must show a corresponding majesty and attitude, otherwise how can I convince the public?"
"Besides, Gaoyang is only a small country. To deal with him, [-] to [-] troops from Liaodong is enough."
"As for the garrisons prepared for the northern border, there is no need to move at all, and it will not affect the overall situation!"
At this moment, there are only two things Wei Yunyi thinks about.
One is to launch a war directly, no matter what the final result is.
After going through this battle, Gao Yang and Da Wei are bound to turn against each other, so the comprehensive communication after that is completely out of the question.
In this way, in this respect, the growth of Wei's luck can be completely restrained.
The second is to start a war, which consumes money and national strength the most.
Don't you see that the army is aggressive, and it seems that it has won a lot of victories, but the national strength is deteriorating.
At the same time, he also knew that it was difficult for the current treasury of Great Wei to support two-front warfare. Even if it could, it would be completely empty after the fight.
Of course, there is another fundamental reason why Wei Yunyi launched the war, that is, he expected that with the current national strength of Gaoyang Kingdom, he would not be able to defeat Wei at all. But Gao Yangguo didn't have the courage.
That's why it is said that it is enough for Liaodong to send [-] to [-] troops.
Because what he thinks is very simple.
It is to let the Liaodong war enter a situation of pulling each other.
Firstly, they can continue to consume national power, and secondly, they dare not directly start a war with each other easily, avoiding various losses.
But there is another possibility.
That is, the [-] to [-] soldiers and horses in Liaodong can defeat Gaoyang State.
It's just that Wei Yunyi thinks that this possibility is too low. First of all, the overall strength of the Liaodong garrison is not comparable to that of the northern garrison, and Gao Yang is also a country, and there is no problem in gathering an army of 30 to [-].
Wei Yunyi didn't believe that in a situation of five to one, or even six to one, Da Wei could still win.
It can be said that this decision of mine is definitely the wisest.
Five or sixty thousand troops.
Go to war directly against a country?
Even Zhang Zhengming was stunned when he heard it.
He admits that Gaoyang country is not good, its national strength is not strong, but with only such a small number of people, it will go to war.
Is it too childish?
And the thoughts of the other ministers are similar, thinking about whether to persuade His Majesty?
But obviously, since Wei Yunyi has made a decision, he will not change it, so he looked at everyone and said solemnly: "My intention has been decided, there is no need to discuss this matter, you just need to prepare!"
This is the advantage of being an emperor. Even if there is a cabinet, once you express your attitude, it cannot be resisted.
Especially what he said was not only well-founded, but also based on the dignity of the Wei Dynasty.
If someone stood up to oppose it at this time, it would be disregarding the dignity of the country.
At this moment, the ministers didn't say much, they could only respectfully say: "Minister, please follow the order!"
At the same time, Minister of the Ministry of War paused, and continued: "However, Your Majesty, if you want to use troops against Gao Yang, who should you appoint as the commander?"
Others are also thinking about this question. The Liaodong garrison is not as good as the northern border, but there are many generals who can lead the army.
It's just that most of these generals are prepared for the northern border.
Because the northern border defense line is really too big.
Even with Marquis Shenwu here.
But in other places, there must be capable generals, right?
However, they feel that this matter is not difficult and they can transfer people from other places.
The current Great Wei, not to mention the generals like clouds, but it is not difficult to find a general who can deal with Gaoyang Kingdom.
Not to mention Zhang Zhengming, even Song Gongwen can think of several candidates.
"The coach?"
Wei Yunyi was taken aback for a moment, he hadn't thought about this question at all, after all, even the start of the war was decided temporarily.
But soon, a young candidate suddenly appeared in his mind.
Immediately looking at the crowd, he said with a soft smile: "I have made my own decision on this, you don't have to worry about it for the time being, you just need to prepare for the use of troops against Gaoyang Kingdom."
After hearing the words, several cabinet scholars didn't say much at the moment.
His Majesty has made his own decisions, just obey orders.
Master Lin, Shangshu of the Ministry of War, took a step forward and said solemnly: "It is Your Majesty, and the Ministry of War will definitely prepare as soon as possible."
This sentence made Song Gongwen next to him startled. When you were about to withdraw from Gaoyang Kingdom and compromise, you didn't say anything. Now that His Majesty is going to start a big war, why do you still look a little excited?
"Is there anything else you need to do, Ai Qing?" Wei Yunyi asked immediately when he saw that the matter had been settled.
"I have no objection!"
The five cabinet scholars answered in unison.
Without hesitation immediately, he resigned and turned to leave the Imperial Study Room.
As for Wei Yunyi, he looked at the sky outside, it was almost noon.
Now it's meal time, so let Wang Jin drive to the empress's Kunshou Palace, and as for those excerpts, he ordered someone to send them to Concubine Ying's bedroom.
at the same time.
"Master Lin!"
Song Gongwen who just left the imperial study.
After privately agreeing with Zhang Zhengming to meet later, Zou hurriedly caught up with Minister of the Ministry of War.
Although he is also a member of the cabinet, in fact, he does not have much affection for Mr. Lin.
Because this person was born in the south of the Yangtze River, although he is not that kind of big family, not even the four major families in Longyang, but in fact, he also belongs to the gentry faction.
Song Gongwen even heard that when he was promoting the reform before, after the other party also submitted a memorial, his favorability plummeted.
But Nai He really had some doubts in his heart, so he had to catch up.
"Master Song, what's the matter?"
The Shangshu of the Ministry of War is surnamed Lin, and his first name is Yuansong. He looks very old-fashioned.
After being called to a halt, his face was slightly displeased, but he did not leave.
"Master Lin," Song Gongwen cupped his hands slightly, and said, "Forgive me, I do have a question, that is, today's meeting before the imperial court, to discuss matters concerning the Gaoyang Kingdom, why did you not express your attitude before?"
As the Minister of the Ministry of War, the opponent's words are very important in this matter.
In particular, the matter of Gaoyang Kingdom was also brought up by the other party.
But the problem is that this person has not spoken in the early stage.
But finally at the end.
When His Majesty decided to use troops against Gao Yang, he asked about the candidate for the commander.
In Song Gongwen's understanding, it is obviously not the wisest choice for His Majesty to suddenly start a war now.
Others also expressed their views.
But the only thing missing is the Minister of the Ministry of War who is most qualified to speak, so he doesn't say anything.
If the other party can also oppose the dispatch of troops like other colleagues, maybe His Majesty will change his mind, but the other party has not done anything.He was naturally surprised, and wanted to ask why.
Although I also know that it is a bit abrupt to speak directly like this.
Beside, Lin Yuansong frowned slightly after hearing the words.
"Lord Song, you should know that I also belong to the gentry faction, and I don't agree with your promotion of sharing the income from the family to the mu. I have also made several memorials, imploring His Majesty to take back the order of the reform, so I, to you, also Unsatisfactory."
"Master Song please forgive me, I just speak so straightforwardly."
Straight, you must be straight!
But in front of His Majesty, you are so straightforward!
Song Gongwen was silent to himself, but there was still a smile on his face, and he said immediately: "Of course I know what Mr. Lin is like."
Lin Yuansong nodded, and then continued: "But I also know that it's just that you and I have different factions and political opinions. I'm dissatisfied with you only because of business, not private."
"As for the question raised by Mr. Song, I will naturally not pretend to be profound, and it's okay to tell you."
Having said that, his expression became serious, and then he said: "I, Lin Yuansong, am Minister of the Ministry of War, Mr. Song, since I am the Minister of the Ministry of War, how can I compromise with others? Is it a small country like Gaoyang?"
"It's their shamelessness that comes first, so don't blame us for being unrighteous, so I absolutely agree and support His Majesty's decision!"
"Even though this decision may have some consequences, as Minister of the Ministry of War, I not only want to safeguard the dignity of Wei."
"More importantly, I also represent all the soldiers of Great Wei. Under such circumstances, I must not compromise!"
"Master Song, do you understand now?"
Lin Yuansong finished speaking.
Immediately ignoring the other party's reaction, he turned and left.
It was just this remark that made Song Gongwen stunned on the spot.
all the time.
He thought that as long as he supported the gentry faction, he was extremely selfish and would not consider it for the country.
But today, because of what Minister of the Ministry of War said today, Song Gongwen's concept has changed.
As the other party said.
Different political opinions are public to public.
But now it is a matter of national dignity, and we must be consistent with the outside world.
Song Gongwen looked at the back of the other party going away, didn't say much, just bowed slightly.
Yes, this is the real courtier of Wei.
He suddenly felt.
Perhaps His Majesty's decision is correct.
Great Wei is the lord of the Central Plains, so he must show his majesty.
Before he knew it, his eyes became firmer, for this battle, he must do his best!
Thinking like this, Song Gongwen turned his head and walked outside the palace.
Kunshou Palace.
The rich vegetable fragrance wafts around.
The queen was sitting in the courtyard, and from time to time someone brought some more delicious food.
But soon, Song Youwei frowned slightly, turned her head to look to the other side and said: "Hongzhi, the food is ready, why don't you come over to eat."
Although today is not the fifteenth day of the lunar new year, it is Song Hongzhi's seventeenth birthday.
So she made the decision directly and asked her younger brother to come to Kunshou Palace for dinner.
It's just that Song Youwei at this moment feels a little strange.
On weekdays.
As long as this younger brother smells the aroma of the dishes he made with his own hands, he will just ignore them, and he will start to gobble them up when the dishes are not ready.
It's just that today, she has been standing by the side, and now that all the dishes are served, she doesn't move.
"I'm coming here."
Not far away, Song Hongzhi also came to his senses when he heard his sister's shout.
Immediately turned around, walked to the table and sat down, but that look did not fall on the food.
"What's the matter? Did you get bullied in the imperial camp?" Seeing this, Song Youwei immediately asked.
"No." Hearing this, Uncle Xiaoguo shook his head, thought for a while, and finally said: "Sister, you should know that the grassland army has invaded recently, and the situation in the northern border is serious."
"Of course I know." The Queen said: "Didn't Your Majesty ask the old Hou Ye to take command in person? Presumably there will be no problem."
The matter in the northern border was so big, even though she was in the harem, of course she heard it many times.
Although I was a little anxious in my heart, I could think of the Empress Shen Wuhou.
I also know that there will be no problem with this matter.
"But why doesn't the emperor's brother-in-law let me go?"
Song Hongzhi's grievances immediately came to the fore, and he couldn't help but said: "The 20 troops of the Ten Grasslands, even the old Hou Ye, must have a headache, and will definitely experience all kinds of tragic fights. If the emperor's brother-in-law lets me go up, then I won't It's the same."
"I can guarantee that within three months, the prairie barbarians will suffer a great loss! A big victory will be won!"
It turned out to be for this matter!
Song Youwei understood completely.
My younger brother was feeling depressed because he saw that there was a battle going on in the northern border, but he couldn't make a move.
It's just that she was a little speechless about what the other party said.
You said that the old Hou Ye was very troubled by this.
Now speak up.
You can win a big victory in three months, who do you think you are?Your idea is very dangerous!
Although she was not surprised by her younger brother's wild words, Song Youwei was still very helpless.
But I also knew that even if I spoke, it was useless, so I couldn't help but continued: "Your Majesty must have thought carefully about not letting you go, and you must be clear that fighting is not a child's play."
"Marquis Shenwu has made outstanding achievements, is mature and prudent, and has almost never failed in battles with grassland tribes."
"It's best to let him go. As for you, you still have to learn the art of war."
These words are similar to what Wei Yunyi said.
Song Hongzhi listened for a while.
I definitely didn't want to listen to it a second time, so I could only curl my lips in the end and said: "That's what you think, but I don't ask much, just let me do it last time, just one chance!"
He knew that in the matter of using troops on the grassland, he would definitely not be able to go.
Speaking now is just to relieve the boredom in my heart.
"Okay, okay, don't think too much!"
Song Youwei stopped persuading her, and continued: "Today is your birthday, be happy. As for the war, you are still young, so don't worry too much."
That's what she said, but the thought in her heart was that it was best for her brother never to go to the battlefield.
After all, swords have no eyes, if anything happens, the Song family will be left behind.
Hearing this, Uncle Xiaoguo sighed.
Looking at the favorite meals on the table, he has no appetite.
"His Majesty is here!"
But at this moment, a voice came from outside Kunshou Palace.
When the two heard the words, they were shocked immediately, and without any hesitation, they bowed to greet them.
Immediately, Wei Yunyi walked in through the main entrance, saw the siblings and smiled softly: "I heard something just now, what opportunity does Uncle Xiao Guo want?"
Now that he is about to enter the seventh rank of martial arts, and the distance is so close, he can naturally hear it.
"Reporting to Your Majesty, Hong Zhizheng is depressed and unable to go to the northern border to fight for the country."
Song Youwei smiled and said: "The concubine is also enlightening him. After all, today is Hongzhi's birthday, so it's better to be happy."
Hearing this, Wei Yunyi noticed that the delicious dishes on the table were very rich.
It turns out that today is my brother-in-law's birthday.
He smiled softly, then turned his head and said, "Uncle Xiao Guo, are you still unhappy about that matter?"
"I..." Song Hongzhi just wanted to say something, but quickly lowered his head and said, "It's true that I'm not happy, but since the emperor's brother-in-law won't let me go, I will naturally listen to the emperor's brother-in-law."
Having said that, there was some sadness in his eyes, it was obvious that he didn't mean what he said!
Naturally, Wei Yunyi could see it, and thinking of today's imperial meeting, he immediately walked up to the other party and said, "I know what you're thinking, and it just so happens that today is your birthday, so I'll give you a chance today, one, A chance to go to the battlefield!"

The subscription to this book is too low, and I don't know how much money I can get next month.
