Famous doctor and virtuous woman

Chapter 488 Father Returns 13
There will be no one else except Si Yun, and I believe Si Yun will not speak out.

The emperor raised his eyes to look at Gu Xinian, gave another blow, and said, "Ai Qing's complexion doesn't look too good, do you need to ask the imperial physician to show Ai Qing?"

Gu Xinian also dropped a son, and said: "No need, I'm fine now."

The emperor understood Gu Xinian's temper to a certain extent, seeing that he refused, he did not ask again, but instead asked about political affairs: "I don't know what Aiqing thinks about the Beirong issue."

Gu Xinian paused for a moment, but did not drop the ball in his hand, as if he was thinking.After a while, he put his son down and said: "Does the emperor want to hear the truth, or lie?"

"What if I want to hear everything?" The emperor smiled, but didn't make a move.

The emperor didn't make a move, so Gu Xi Nian naturally didn't make any more moves. He was silent for a while and said, "It's a lie, it's the same opinion as the court officials."

The emperor laughed and said: "I really don't like to hear Aiqing's lies, tell the truth."

Gu Xinian also smiled, and said: "The truth is that Beirong itself has always had problems, but I don't know from which angle the emperor looks at Beirong. If Beirong is regarded as a slave, then the Great Nangong Dynasty No matter what you do to them, it is right, as slaves, they have no right to resist."

"If you regard them as people, the taxes on their lives are indeed higher, and their lives are too difficult."

Hearing this, the emperor fell silent, and dropped another son silently.

The two continued to play chess quietly, as if no one had mentioned what happened just now, and they didn't talk anymore, as if they were concentrating on playing chess.

The emperor actually hated Beirong extremely, otherwise he would not have levied such a high tax on Beirong alone.He once had the idea of ​​exterminating all Beirong people, but he was only allowed to let them go after he was persuaded by the elders of the court and proposed high taxes.

When they rebelled this time, his first thought was that Beirong was an unfamiliar dog.

Because of his influence, most of the officials in the court flattered and condemned Beirong, and even put General Zhen Guo in jail.Sitting on a high seat, he watched them coldly, screaming louder and louder, expressionless.

He did hate Beirong, but in the past 14 years, he has figured out a lot of things in a high position.The deaths of the two emperors back then were inherently strange.Even if there is no strangeness, since it is a war, there will be victory and defeat, and there will always be death.

It's just that it was his two emperors who died, and he had hatred in his heart.

But Beirong has a vast land and everyone is good at horses, so it is actually impossible to wipe them all out.

In fact, they are also his people, and those people are so innocent. After 14 years of enslavement, it is not far from the end. It is time to let them go.It's a different feeling to just let it go voluntarily and protest with them.

Regarding Si Zihan's self-assertion, he deliberately wanted to make things difficult, and he also thought about taking him down.

If Si Zihan is taken down, then the military power can be regained in his own hands.

If this opportunity is missed, there will be no chance for Si Zihan to surrender his military power.But if Si Zihan is taken down, then the Beirong issue proves that tax cuts are not allowed.Now that the people of Beirong have protested, if they do not agree to tax cuts, they will naturally not let it go.

It was only after three years of fighting that Beirong was captured, and almost all of it was due to Si Zihan.
