Chapter 461 Chu State Ga Ga Music

The emperor narrowed his eyes, tapped the armrest with his index finger, and said nothing.

The Minister of War objected again, saying, "This is not the way to cut costs! Lord Minister of Revenue, we must secure the fruits of victory."

The Minister of Revenue continued, "Mr. Minister of War, it is not necessary to send new troops to ensure victory. First, in the north, there are the twins of the Lin family and the seven sons of the Shi family. Do you say that because you do not believe in their strength?"

The Minister of War choked.

After successfully taking the blame, the Minister of Finance continued, "Your Majesty! I think we should first send civilians to transport food to the disaster-stricken areas in the north to appease the people and secure their jobs. The Imperial Master once said that the people of Daxia are the kindest and simplest. As long as they have food to eat, they won't cause any major trouble."

The Minister of War frowned and took a step forward.

At this time, the emperor spoke up to stop them: "It's not proper to make such a fuss. Let's discuss it again. I'm leaving the court."

The Third Prince of Chu, who was in high spirits, felt a little regretful when he heard this, knowing that the Emperor of Xia wanted to avoid him to discuss important matters.

But the third prince of Chu State was a little too obsessed with the fun.

After the emperor stood up, he pretended to walk towards the courtiers who were leaving the court one after another, and deliberately said worriedly: "My lords. Chu has been the most important diplomatic partner of Xia since ancient times. Now that Xia is in crisis, I am willing to send troops to the north to help maintain peace in the north. Oh, by the way, please rest assured, Minister of Finance, Chu is willing to provide its own food and supplies for the aid."

The Minister of Revenue tutted in disgust.

The officials of the Great Xia court were also very unhappy: How angry! This kind of rubbish wanted to take advantage of the crisis to make a fortune for the Great Xia country.

The prince had a cold face and retorted coldly: "It seems that His Royal Highness the Third Prince can control the military power of Chu. I must write a letter to congratulate the emperor of your country and find a successor."

The Third Prince of Chu choked and looked at the Crown Prince of Daxia with fear.

Who said that the Crown Prince of Xia is gentle and considerate?! Isn't this really a good way to poke at the wound?! If his stubborn and conceited old father heard the words about "successor", his fourth brother's today would be his tomorrow.

The Third Prince of Chu State gave a fake smile and said, "I dare not. I am just suggesting it. If Your Highness the Crown Prince is not happy with it, then forget it."

The prince snorted, then turned and left.

The rest of the Great Xia court officials also glanced condescendingly at the Third Prince of Chu, then turned and left.

The third prince of Chu was very angry at first, but when he thought that the officials of the Great Xia Dynasty left in a hurry because of the flood, he was no longer angry. Not only was he not angry, but when he walked out of the hall, he even showed a sinister and arrogant smile on his face.

This scene left the Chu officials waiting outside somewhat confused.

However, after they learned about the flood from the Third Prince of Chu, they all laughed out loud:

"Let Xiaguo be punished by heaven for his arrogance before."

"God bless Great Chu! Hahahaha... No, it's God bless His Highness!"

"With such a severe flood, Xia Country is in big trouble."

…

The people of Chu were celebrating at once. At this time, the staff of the Third Prince of Chu suddenly said, "Your Highness, why don't you go back to the border?"

The third prince of Chu was stunned: "Why?"

"Third Prince, the unfinished words of the Minister of Revenue are enough to prove that the people of Xia are suffering from extremely heavy consumption of supplies. Now that the northern part of Xia has suffered a flood disaster, the food supply has been further reduced. Xia must be hesitant. Isn't this an opportunity for Chu... no, isn't it an opportunity for Third Prince?!" The aide lowered his voice and made a gesture, "Third Prince, how about killing first and reporting later?!"

A glimmer of ambition flashed in the eyes of the third prince of Chu. He took out a bag from his belt and secretly handed it to his aide.

Afterwards, he happily returned to Huitong Hall to rest.
