Princess of the auxiliary country

"you you you"

Being slandered like this by Ning Guogong, Meng Xuancheng, who always regarded himself as a loyal and upright minister, seemed to lose his temper.

The slightly old face was a little distorted at this time.

However, Ning Guogong didn't care at all at this time. He had not dealt with Meng Xuancheng for a day or two.

It's just that, as a military general, he is not as good as a civil servant in terms of words, let alone a top civil servant like Meng Xuancheng who is a big troll.

Therefore, in the past many confrontations, he didn't take much advantage. To be able to make Meng Xuancheng so angry this time, in his opinion, this was a huge victory for him.

As for whether it would make Meng Xuancheng angry at all, he thought it would not happen. In his eyes, the old man Meng Xuancheng was a disaster.

Don’t they all say that the harm will last for thousands of years?
"All right."

Emperor Zhaowu on the high platform saw Meng Xuancheng being attacked like this, and he had to say that he was secretly relieved.

This old man had often scolded him in court in the past, making it difficult for him to get off the stage, but this situation was not easy to see.

"Fusang Kingdom, I must defeat it. Not only must I defeat it, but I must also destroy the country."

His words were unquestionable, and the majesty of the emperor directly covered the entire audience.

Speaking of which, this is the first time since he became emperor that he has made such an unquestionable statement on a major event.

For a time, all the ministers below felt his determination.

Meng Xuancheng had calmed down and looked up at Emperor Zhaowu. Seeing his firm gaze, he opened his mouth, but in the end he didn't say anything.

It is true that he is a big troll, but he has been able to openly troll the emperor many times and is still alive today. His mind is quite shrewd.

He still knows when to spray and when not to spray.

It seems that now, Emperor Zhaowu's attitude has been revealed. Based on some of his character in the past, he must not complain about this matter, otherwise he will definitely be in bad luck.

Besides, there is something weird about today.

The attitudes of Fang Qiao and Huo Jingzhi were very wrong. They both supported him and said that the country must be destroyed.

This is abnormal in itself. The reason for his fierce opposition is not because he thinks there is anything wrong with destroying the country and Fusang, but because he feels that such an action is not cost-effective.

Fusang was already overseas. It was inconvenient for the Yu Dynasty to go out and mobilize troops just to destroy a small island country. The cost was completely out of proportion to the gains. The Yu Dynasty was already very poor, but it could not do this at a loss.

Later, Emperor Zhaowu directly ordered the Ministry of Industry and the Ministry of Household Affairs to cooperate in shipbuilding, and also asked the Ministry of War to arrange the training of naval forces.

After a series of orders were issued, the court dispersed.

However, before Emperor Zhaowu left, he still named many ministers and asked them to go to the imperial study room.

Here are the left and right prime ministers, six ministers, as well as Meng Xuancheng, Ning Guogong and others.

A group of people came to the imperial study room in great force. Emperor Zhaowu did not hide them. These were all his important ministers and confidants, and the war to destroy the country also required the cooperation of all parties to continue.

"This is the news that Jingzhi got from Princess Zhaode some time ago. Please take a look."

Yesterday, he had sorted out all the information about the gold and silver mines in Fusang Kingdom that Huo Junyao had said before.

He asked Gao Fu and others to copy a few more copies. At this time, except for Fang Qiao and Huo Jingzhi, everyone else had one copy.

When these people finished reading, they were all stunned. The content in it was really something they had not thought of, and they even said they did not dare to think about it at all.

"Your Majesty, is this true? Does Fusang Guo really have these things?" Ning Guogong's voice was trembling, and his big eyes were like light bulbs, which were frighteningly bright.

"I believe Princess Zhaode, she will not joke about such a thing."

When everyone heard this, they all nodded subconsciously. Princess Zhaode was not an ordinary little girl. There were too many things that happened in her hands that people couldn't believe.

And the emperor is right, this is not a trivial matter. If it weren't for what Princess Zhaode said, the result of all this hard work was nothing, how could the emperor not punish him?

This is no small crime.

"I see. The reason why the Emperor wants to take over the Fuso Kingdom so much is because of these mines?"

Meng Xuancheng also reacted at this time.

"Securing the mine is second, mainly because of what the Fusang people did in our Yu Dynasty."

"This is a country with wolfish ambitions. If it is left unchecked, it may pose a great threat to our Yu Dynasty in the future."

"Of course, those gold and silver mines are also a good thing for our Yu Dynasty."

As soon as Emperor Zhaowu said this, everyone nodded. They all knew what the Fusang people did this time. It is no exaggeration to say that they are ambitious.

Thinking about it, although that country is small, it is very wealthy and the location is so stable. If technology keeps up and is allowed to develop, there is really no guarantee that they will not become a serious problem one day.

Rather than waiting, it is better to seize this opportunity and directly destroy the country, eliminate hidden dangers, and get those gold and silver mines at the same time.

The most important thing is that the timing is very good this time. Fusang State provokes first. Even if the Yu Dynasty launches a war to destroy the country, the surrounding small countries will not say anything. On the contrary, it can have a certain deterrent effect.

No wonder Emperor Zhaowu, who always liked to listen to the opinions and deliberations of his ministers, was so determined this time when facing the Fusang Kingdom.

This thing is simply beneficial and harmless.

"I agree to lay down Fusang."

Meng Xuancheng directly cupped his hands and said.

Although he didn't say anything in the court just now, it was because of the pressure from the emperor, but he still felt a little dissatisfied in his heart.

But things are different now. Before, he thought it was not cost-effective to visit the small Fuso Country. Now that he sees these things, it is not cost-effective. This is simply a great deal.

In addition, they are taking advantage of the situation this time, and it is still cost-effective to take advantage of it. It would be a fool not to fight such a war.

"Your Majesty, I am willing to lead an expedition to crush Fusang and return all the gold and silver mines within its territory to our Yu Dynasty."

Duke Dingguo Li Jiujun directly cupped his fists and handed over his hands to ask for the tassel.

However, Emperor Zhaowu did shake his head and said: "Ninth Army, I know your intentions, but the small country of Fusang is worthy of your personal expedition?"

"Your role is to intimidate the Turks. Those guys have always been evil. If they know that we are going to take action against Fusang, they will definitely cause trouble. If you are not there to control them, I will feel uneasy."

Emperor Zhaowu did not forget who their biggest enemy was. The Turks were what the Yu Dynasty was most worried about, and a general must be in charge.

"Your Majesty is right. Does this small country really need Duke Ding? It's better to let me, Old Cheng, go."

Ning Guogong also stood up.

"The Emperor's consideration is good. Duke Dingguo still needs to scare the Turks, so it is indeed not suitable for him to go to Fusang."

Fang Qiao and others also stood up one after another.
