Chapter 181: The whole court fights for a small thing



While Shen Zhiyi was still immersed in the joy of supporting their couple, the old emperor decided not to listen to these meaningless things.

He has something important to do now.

“All of these things.”

An Qi handed the things to the old emperor and said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, the above are all things found from these people from the Hippo Country. This is the map they drew, and this page shows Daye."

The old emperor took a closer look and his heart skipped a beat.

Tnnd, the western border is drawn in such detail.

[Wow, these people are really good at drawing. Their drawings are pretty nice, but some parts are not quite accurate.]

Shen Zhiyi divided the surveillance into two screens, comparing the maps drawn by these people while showing the territory map of this world given to him by the system.

[System, how come you have such a detailed map? ]

The system sounded with a proud mechanical voice.

【Basic operation. 】

The old emperor fell into deep thought. You know, one of the most important things in marching and fighting a war is the map.

This time, General Weihu went out to sea, in addition to searching for good breeds, he was also responsible for exploring me, and a map would have to be drawn in the due course.

However, Shen Zhiyi now has a ready-made one.

The old emperor collected the maps drawn by these people.

When the people from the Hippopotamus Kingdom saw this, they started chattering in confusion.

[Hahaha, these people are questioning why the old emperor took their things. ]

The people present looked at Shen Zhiyi in shock quietly.

Chen Lang is indeed an immortal, he can actually understand this bird language.

The old emperor responded quickly: "What are you talking about? I don't understand."

Why did he take their things? He didn't even go out and ask around to find out who in Daye didn't belong to him.

The old emperor put the map in his pocket.

He didn't care about the looks from the people around him, he just confiscated it, confiscated it, do you understand?

[On the 16th day of the year Guihai, the Hippo Kingdom came to pay tribute and snatched the map from the envoy.]

[Does it feel weird? Who cares? No one will read it anyway, and I won’t know when someone reads it.]

Everyone: You are such a smart kid.

Several people from the Hippopotamus Kingdom were still locked in this room, and the old emperor took the map they drew back to Yanying Palace.

[Hey, why didn't these ministers go back? They looked like they were waiting for the old emperor.]

The ministers who had been waiting in Yanying Hall for a long time tried hard to hold back their yawns.

Of course, the old emperor had something to say, and they were full and sleepy, so how could they dare to leave?

"Come and look at this."

The old emperor placed the map drawn by those people from Hippopotamus on the table.

Someone asked, "This looks like a map?"

"This place looks familiar."

The old emperor waved to the General of Cavalry.

"Look carefully, old man."

The General of Cavalry squinted his eyes and read it carefully, then widened his eyes after reading it.

"Oh my goodness, isn't this the place I used to guard? I remember that I couldn't go into this area. How come he drew it in such detail?"

The old emperor nodded to Chen Decai beside him, and Chen Decai took out a long unknown object.

"It must be through this thing."

[I know, I know. It’s a telescope.]

Many people gathered around and looked at it curiously.

"Your Majesty, how can this be used?"

[Just align your eyes. It's super easy. 】

With Shen Zhiyi's words, these ministers began to understand what to do.

After using it, everyone was amazed.

"Hey, old man, you got a super big head on me."

"I see, I see the stone lions outside the door."

A group of old guys suddenly started playing with telescopes like little kids.

[The old emperor is worthy of being the old emperor. He used something he had never seen before, but he was still as steady as an old dog. ]

The old emperor raised the corner of his lips and said, "Nonsense, if he can't do it, how can he control these old guys?"

He coughed a few times and spoke.

"This little gadget seems to be quite useful. You from the Ministry of Industry, go and see how it is made and see if it can be mass-produced."

The Minister of Works was so excited that his heart was shaking and he was about to take it.

General Weihu stood up.

"Your Majesty, this thing will be of great use to me."

The Minister of Industry said unhappily, "What use is it to you? It's more likely to be of great use to our Ministry of Industry."

[The Minister of Industry has always been fond of these strange and bizarre things. He will definitely take this thing apart once he gets his hands on it.]

The Minister of Works tilted his head. How could he know how this thing was made if he didn't take it apart?

When General Weihu heard this, he knew that this was not feasible.

"Your Majesty, I am going to the sea, and the sea is still unknown. With this little thing, we can greatly improve our chances of survival. I beg Your Majesty to give this thing to our fleet."

When the old emperor heard this, he realized that this was the case.

The Minister of Works spoke anxiously.

"Your Majesty, the situation at sea is unknown. If this thing falls outside, it will be gone. Whether it can be manufactured in large quantities in the future is particularly critical."

When the old emperor heard this, it seemed to be the case.

"etc!"

Everyone's heads began to turn to look at the person who spoke.

Shen Zhiyi's mouth formed an "O" shape.

[This is really wonderful. The one who is speaking is the General of the Cavalry. ]

[Hello, hello, it's Shen Zhiyi's turn to report now. The Minister of Industry and General Weihu are fighting for the telescope, and now it seems that the General of the Cavalry is also going to get involved. ]

The General of Cavalry looked at the old emperor with heated eyes.

"Your Majesty, with this item, I can guarantee that every battle will be a great victory. With this map, I suggest that Your Majesty attack these small countries in the Western Regions immediately to expand the territory for Daye!"

What the General of Cavalry said was so passionate that it touched the old emperor's heart directly.

You know, the old emperor’s biggest dream was to expand territory.

No aspiring emperor could resist this temptation.

But over the years his ambitions have been hampered by Daye's financial situation.

[Well said, do it! ]

The Minister of Works, General Weihu, and the Minister of Revenue came to their senses.

No, what's good about it? This is bullshit!

Before the Minister of Works and General Weihu could speak, the Minister of Revenue jumped out.

Why fight? It's such a waste of money. Isn't it nice to make money?!!!

"Your Majesty, I would like to ask if I can have two of this thing?"

[I regret to tell you that there is no such thing. ]

The old emperor shook his head.

The Minister of Revenue turned around and looked at General Weihu.

"General, why don't you just bear with it? If there were two of these things, it wouldn't matter if you took one, but now there's only one, it would be bad if it was thrown out."

General Weihu blushed with anger.

"You civil servants are all in the same boat!"

[But why aren't you military officers united? ]

General Weihu turned and looked at the General of Cavalry.

Please say something!!!
