Chapter 233: The Minister of War, I am impressed
Yuan Ruan: [But it’s useless for me to be diligent. The reason why the plot is targeting Daxia is because the plot wants to destroy Xia and create a situation where Chu is supreme.]
Daxia official: !!!
Is the murderer Chu Guo's biological father? ! Why is he so protective of him? !
System: [But Ah Ruan, isn't there an old saying that "Man conquers nature"? If you, brother, work harder, strengthen Xia, weaken Chu, and make Chu lose hope of dominating, you might just give up and give up on Xia.]
Yuan Ruan: [Hmm... it's difficult. I feel that the officials of Daxia are all focused on infrastructure and money. You see, in the history of Xiaguo, when it fought with South Korea, it was South Korea that provoked it first, and when it fought with the Xiongnu, it was also because the Xiongnu invaded first. So... the people of Xiaguo love peace.]
System: [That’s right. The main reason is that you are the destiny of the Great Xia nation. I’m worried that the plot killing will hurt you in the end.]
Daxia official: !!!
Yuan Ruan saw that the system was so depressed that it was about to cry, so he quickly comforted it: [Don't be afraid, I'm strong. There is another possibility. More than ten years later, the hero and heroine are older, and they may not care about the bloody story anymore? ]
System: [Hiss, Ah Ruan does have a point. But what if the plot is that the middle-aged sadomasochistic love story is also interesting.]
Yuanruan was choked for a moment.
System: [But aren’t the Taoist priests refining gunpowder? If it doesn’t work, we can just wait a few more years. Once we can produce a large amount of stable gunpowder, we will blow up the capital of Chu inside and out.]
The corner of Yuan Ruan's mouth twitched slightly. If they really did this, Da Xia's reputation would be ruined.
She perfunctorily said: […That’s a good idea, don’t think about it anymore.]
At this time, the emperor slowly glanced at the courtiers behind him, as if saying.
My dear ministers, now you know why I want to target the State of Chu!
The officials of Daxia were still terrified. They looked at each other and clenched their fists.
At this time, the system: [Aruan, look at the Minister of Revenue bowing his hands, I guess he is going to give advice. ]
Yuanruan also looked over.
The Minister of Revenue was as big-headed as an ox, and he already knew that the relationship between Chu and Xia was "either you die or I die", so he naturally would not advise against targeting Chu.
Facing Yuan Ruan's gaze, the Minister of Finance gritted his teeth and bowed, saying, "Your Majesty, the Queen Mother has made a serious mistake and has been punished by heaven with insects, which has caused all kinds of strange phenomena. I am afraid that this is a disaster for Daxia. I think it is right, right..."
System: [Ah Ruan, as expected, once you make a move, the Queen Mother will kneel. I guess the Minister of Finance wants to detain and interrogate the Queen Mother.]
Yuan Ruan puffed out his chest proudly: [That's right, my previous magical powers were not displayed in vain. I also guess that if you are detained and interrogated, you will definitely not let me go easily.]
When the Minister of Finance heard this, he felt as if he had been saved and said, "When he is imprisoned..."
At this time, the Prince's tutor suddenly stepped forward and said, "This old minister thinks this is inappropriate."
An electronic cat head popped up in the system: [No way, no way. Do you think I should be kind and generous?! ]
The Prince's tutor clenched his muscles and continued, "Cut the grass and root it out. It's better to kill it."
System: […Awesome. The current Queen Mother can kill anyone she wants. Ah Ruan, why do I feel that the officials of Daxia are not as peace-loving as you say.]
Yuan Ruan hesitated for a moment: […Uh, there are always some people in this group…]
The Minister of Rites came out quickly and said, "Wait, we can't kill him."
The emperor and others looked over with frowns on their faces. The Crown Prince's tutor slowly rolled up his sleeves, looking as if he was going to win people over with his virtue.
The Minister of Rites said seriously, "Killing the Queen Mother is parricide, which will harm the reputation of Daxia and Your Majesty! I think it would be better to send the Queen Mother to Mount Wutai first, then arrange for her death, and hold funeral rites to show filial piety."
Crowd: …
System: [Hahahaha... Ah Ruan, you are such a peace-loving Great Xia official. You will uproot the weeds when you open your mouth, and you will observe funeral rites when you close your mouth.]
Yuan Ruan's mouth twitched slightly: [...Hmm.]
At this time, the Minister of War suddenly came out and said loudly: "Wait, Your Majesty, can you listen to me? I think the Queen Mother cannot die first."
The emperor cast a cold look over.
The other court officials also looked at the Minister of War in astonishment. How could the Minister of War, who was usually the most reckless and loved to fight and kill, say that he would not kill people? !
The Minister of War scratched his head and said, "According to the news from yesterday morning, the young general of the Shi family successfully captured Wuhua City, which has 70,000 to 80,000 people from Chen State. I want to use the Queen Mother to send false news to the Chen State delegation, and wait until we completely take over the three cities of Chen State before killing them?!"
Crowd: !!!
What?! The military has such great news!
The emperor seemed to be thinking about something.
The Minister of War added, "And I think the reason why the Queen Mother was confiscated and executed because she was hated by Heaven is... not quite appropriate. It humiliates the reputation of the young Imperial Master among the people. So I think that the Queen Mother could be confiscated on the grounds that she colluded with the Chen State envoys and surrendered to the enemy and committed treason. Wouldn't this be a better reason?"
Other court officials looked at the Minister of War in astonishment: He actually considered maintaining the reputation of the young imperial teacher. I really look at him in a new light.
System: [Wow, this is great! It also protects your reputation, Ah Ruan. By the way, Ah Ruan, do you still remember the national destiny mission that the Shi family completed before? ! The root melon is here! ]
