Chapter 435: Wancheng is going to rebel?
Yuan Ruan was startled: [Why are they arguing so fiercely? Is there something wrong with the war in the north? Is the King of Hengshan no longer effective? ]
Crowd: !!!
The Minister of Revenue was kicked secretly.
He understood immediately, patted his butt and walked out, responsible for submitting advice and covering up the situation.
System: [No. The North has been victorious all the way. But speaking of the King of Hengshan, Ah Ruan, you may want to talk to your brother about it indirectly. I'm afraid the King of Hengshan will be tortured to death by the Shi family.]
As soon as these words came out, Yuan Ruan's pupils trembled: [Ah?! The Shi family dared to bully the King of Hengshan?!]
At this moment, almost everyone's thoughts were synchronized with Yuan Ruan's: Are the Seven Sons of the Shi Family crazy? !
The emperor narrowed his eyes and frowned.
The official who hated the status of a slave whispered contemptuously: "You call them slaves after all, you have no sense at all."
The Minister of War subconsciously clenched his fists and placed them in front of his chest: Pray, don't die. Otherwise, no matter how great the military achievements are, they will be lost.
System: [You can't blame the Shi family entirely. They are crazy when fighting, but they are still very good to King Hengshan who can serve as an auxiliary. The main reason is that King Hengshan is an invisible germophobe. Normally, he lives in the palace and can wash his hands 8 times a day and take a bath 3 times. But now he gets up early and goes to bed late every day, goes out in the wind and rain, sleeps on the grass, and lies in mud puddles. He often can't take a bath for three or four days. He is going crazy. So I thought, why not bring him back to slow down for a while, so that he won't go crazy and affect the entire Great Xia Corps. ]
Crowd: …
The emperor returned to his more lazy sitting posture.
The Minister of War breathed a sigh of relief and complained in his heart: spoiled.
Yuan Ruan nodded: [Yes, Tong'er, your worry is reasonable. I will talk to my brother about it later. Okay, Tong'er, tell me why the two ministers quarreled so much? What was the reason?]
System: [Oh, I just ate the melon of this little official who delivered the victory report. In ten days or so, the Shi family will rebel against the city of Wan. The Minister of Revenue is most concerned about the money bag, and after hearing this news, he wants to cut back on spending. The Minister of War is most protective of his son and can't stand the lack of money, so they had a big quarrel and it turned into a quarrel. ]
The courtiers, who were so comfortable just now, almost sprained their waists in an instant: !!!
What! Wancheng is going to turn against us?!
The assistant minister of the Ministry of Revenue who was submitting the memorial almost forgot his speech. He stuttered for a long time before continuing to recite it in an distracted manner.
Yuan Ruan was also startled and asked hurriedly: [Ah? Why is Wancheng turning against us? ]
System: [The Emperor of Chen State was unwilling to see his city occupied, so he arranged for the nobles of Wan City to cause trouble. Now the nobles of Wan City are secretly packing their bags, preparing to find an opportunity to run away all at once, leaving Daxia with an empty city, no, it should be said that they are leaving behind a city full of burdens.]
The emperor sat up slightly.
The Minister of War heaved a sigh of relief, turned around and saw the Minister of Revenue clenching his fists.
The Minister of War whispered to comfort him: "Some nobles who don't know how to distinguish between grains can just run away. They can still leave a lot of land for the common people to share."
The Minister of Revenue gritted his teeth and whispered, "What do you know? Scholars, farmers, merchants, and artisans, every link is indispensable. Once all the nobles in Wancheng flee, the merchants in the shops will immediately follow suit. The tenant farmers who rely on the merchants and nobles for their livelihood will become unstable refugees. There will definitely be conflicts between these refugees and the common people... Anyway, it will be very troublesome."
The Minister of War reacted instantly, frowned and whispered: "Then Wancheng is gone? We took it with great difficulty."
The Minister of Revenue calculated with a painful look on his face: "Not really, after all, Daxia also has nobles. But... just think about it, if these nobles take the initiative to go to the border, especially to the enemy border towns that have just been recovered, how much more profit will Daxia have to spend!"
The Minister of War's face darkened.
At this time, Yuanruan's joyful voice rang out: [That's it? There is such a good thing? ]
Everyone:?
