Chapter 191 Is Prime Minister Li so unsophisticated?

It's nothing more than winning the battle, which always involves the division of interests.

Someone mentioned the slave army.

Some people say that the slave army has made a great contribution this time, and they should refer to the method used by General Lin and his men and give all slave soldiers who meet the requirements the opportunity to be promoted.

This time you have really touched a hornet's nest. Let's not talk about the ones far away, let's just talk about the ones nearby.

Most of the heads chopped off by the slave army were recorded on the heads of their own generals. If these were to be distributed, it would rob many generals of their promotion opportunities.

Then, the military officers in the court started arguing, their eyes red and their necks thick.

The civil servants in the court watched the show with their arms folded.

Yuan Ruan was stunned.

She had never seen this kind of argument in court. The two opposing factions of generals did not use their eloquence to argue about who would win. They just raised their fists as big as sand pots and beat each other, glaring at each other:

"Why are you worried! Am I wrong? Slaves should not be given opportunities."

"What are you looking at? Slaves also have good things, so they should be given to them!"

…

As for the neutral generals in the court, they are like a group of people adding fuel to the fire. They will join whichever faction has the stronger fist. The main point is that it is not important whether it is reasonable or not, what is important is who has the bigger fist.

Yuanruan was thinking, won’t my brother and nephew stop it?

She looked up quietly and found that the emperor and the prince were still taking time to drink tea. They both had calm expressions, as if they were watching the monkeys in a civilized manner.

Yuan Ruan: […I now understand why the generals are silent during the court sessions.]

System: [I understand. If the civil officials and military officers were to argue like this, the second thing the civil officials would say would be to kneel down and beg the military officer not to punch him to death.]

Manchu civil servants: ...

The Prince's Tutor once again rolled up his sleeves, revealing his well-built muscles.

It seemed that the civil servants were also eager to try their luck.

The emperor pinched his eyebrows and gave the prince a look.

Prince: ...

Just as he was about to act as a peacemaker, Captain Zhao Xin, the youngest among the generals, knocked the opposing general to the ground with one punch.

Then he said: "Slaves are nothing! If they can have a promotion channel, it would be a perverse act, treason, and rebellion..."

Ba ba ba, one person's voice almost covered the entire court.

At this time, Yuanruan looked over curiously.

Yuan Ruan: [Why is he so excited? It's as if the whole family was wiped out by the Huns. Tong'er, do you have any melons?]

The excited Captain Zhao Xin: ...

System: [Let me see. Hey, the whole family has never been destroyed. But he does have a grudge against the slaves. His wife was taken away by the slaves.]

The generals who had been defeated before regained their spirits and looked at Captain Zhao Xin with burning eyes: ...

Captain Zhao Xin subconsciously retracted his finger pointing at the other party: ...

Yuan Ruan: [Hiss, really? He was kidnapped by a slave? ]

System: [Yes. And twice.]

Captain Zhao Xin was speechless: ...

What the system is doing is nonsense.

He has been robbed twice, so it’s only once!

Yuan Ruan: [How could this be possible? In the feudal society, a man would be kidnapped by a slave for marriage. Does he have any major flaws?]

The melon friends nodded repeatedly: Yes. The gap between slaves and promising young people is huge.

The woman would rather choose a slave than him twice. Could it be that Captain Zhaoxin has some major shortcomings?

Some court officials looked at Captain Zhaoxin's abdomen.

Captain Zhao Xin's face darkened and he clenched his fists, looking frustrated as if he wanted to defend himself but didn't know where to start.

System: [No, he is in good health. It should be said that his physical fitness is excellent, better than 95% of the officials present.]

Yuan Ruan touched his chin: [Why is that? Come on! Come on, melon! ]

System: [Okay. The first time he was forced to marry, Captain Zhaoxin was engaged to the granddaughter of the previous Minister of Revenue when he was young. But this Minister of Revenue supported other princes, so when the two kings of Daxia were in turmoil, the Minister of Revenue was confiscated, the man was sent to the army, and the women were exiled. Captain Zhaoxin spent a lot of money to redeem his fiancée.]

Yuan Ruan touched his chin: [You are indeed a man of integrity. How could you be abandoned? ]

Captain Zhao Xin was almost in tears. Yes, he couldn't understand why he was not well!

System: [He is a good man, but his fiancée is reluctant to leave her family. She learned that other family members could not be redeemed. So she wrote a document to cancel the engagement and ran away. When Captain Zhaoxin went back to look for her a year later, his fiancée had already married a local slave.]

Yuan Ruan: [Ah? This...she likes that slave? Getting married so soon?]

System: [The marriage was not because of love. The slave had a stronger influence in the slave group in the exile area, and the fiancée married to protect her family. Afterwards, the two of them were once rich and exiled, and they had a lot in common, so they fell in love. Captain Zhao Xin refused to believe it and even tried to take her away by force, but was threatened by his fiancée to commit suicide, so he finally returned home dejected.]

The onlookers suddenly realized what was going on and looked anxiously at Captain Zhao Xin: No wonder the defense was broken.

Captain Zhaoxin's friend patted him on the shoulder and whispered, "There are beautiful women everywhere in the world, why bother to fall in love alone, brother."

Captain Zhaoxin felt a dull pain in his heart and pushed his friend's hand away.

Yuanruan: [What about the second time? ]

System: [This is the second time. It hasn’t happened yet, but it will happen soon. His father-in-law is also in the temple.]

Civil and Military Officials: !!!

Wait, this rebellious girl comes from here?

It can’t be my home!

Among them, Prime Minister Li was the most nervous, because no one had as many daughters as his family! In other words, his family had the highest probability of winning the prize!

Prime Minister Li couldn't help but shake his hand gently and pray silently.

But many times, objective reality is not subject to human subjective will.

Yuanruan: [Wow. Who is that? Who is that?]

System: [Hey, it’s a familiar face in your melons, Ah Ruan! Prime Minister Li.]

Prime Minister Li: ...

The hanging heart finally died.

The other court officials breathed a sigh of relief, and then looked at Prime Minister Li with a schadenfreude: You were asked to plan for the status of father-in-law of half the court, haha, you failed miserably.

Yuan Ruan: [Why is it him again? Wait, that's not right. Tong'er, didn't you say before that there was only one daughter in his family who didn't like Qi Kuan and then rebelled and ran away from marriage?]

System: [It’s still that daughter! ]

Prime Minister Li’s pupils trembled: …Why is it her again?

Yuan Ruan: [Ah? Isn't she Qi Kuan's fiancée? How come she is related to Captain Zhao Xin? One woman married twice?!]

The other court officials looked at Prime Minister Li in shock: Shocked, you are such a shameless opportunist, you actually marry a woman to two men!

Qi Kuan: …

Captain Zhaoxin: ...
