As he spoke, Pang Yuan looked at Jiang Wan'er and said, "Your Majesty, I think that it is indeed as the Left Prime Minister said. We must exercise restraint in dealing with the Kingdom of Yue."
"But it is definitely not the appeasement that Lord Zhao mentioned, but a restrained punishment."
Jiang Wan'er nodded and turned to look at Xiao Danglu and King Kang.
"General Xiao, Uncle Wang, what do you think?"
Xiao Danglu said, "Your Majesty, I agree with the opinions of the Left Prime Minister and the Internal Secretary."
"Yue State has committed such a despicable act, and we, the Great Gan, must punish them."
"But punishment requires restraint!"
Jiang Wan'er nodded slightly and looked at the other ministers.
Everyone immediately expressed their opinions in unison: "I second the motion!"
Jiang Wan'er did not make a final summary, but said: "I know the opinions of all the ministers. I will think about this matter carefully and make a specific decision."
"Okay, I'm a little tired, so I'll go back and unload first."
"Have fun, all the ministers."
After saying that, she turned around and left the table. When she walked to Zhao Hao's side, she said, "Come with me. I have something to tell you!"
With the respectful farewell of the ministers, Zhao Hao quickly stood up and followed.
In the Pepper Room, two people walked in, and Jiang Wan'er said, "Sit down first, I'll go change into some light clothes."
Zhao Hao bowed, took Jiang Wan'er in, and sat aside.
After waiting for about ten minutes, Jiang Wan'er finally stepped out.
Zhao Hao quickly stood up and saluted.
Jiang Wan'er waved her hand and said, "I didn't expect that Xiao Chuyun's brilliant idea came from you."
Zhao Hao quickly said: "I was in Shu at the time and knew the specific movements of Wu."
"It was also a coincidence that at that time we learned that Tongshan City had been lost and the reinforcements led by General Chu Yun had not arrived in time."
"So I wrote a letter to General Chu Yun and put forward such a bold suggestion."
"Originally, I thought that this idea was too bold and General Chu Yun would not adopt it."
"I didn't expect that General Chu Yun would not only adopt it, but also implement it extremely well."
"Your Majesty, I am only offering a suggestion."
"If we talk about the credit, it should go to General Chu Yun and his soldiers."
Jiang Wan'er glanced at Zhao Hao and said, "Regarding Xiao Chuyun's matter, you don't need to make up for him."
"I know what he is capable of, and I won't do anything to him!"
"I really didn't realize that your relationship has become so good?"
"You can even ignore such a great achievement?"
Zhao Hao laughed dryly and said awkwardly, "Your Majesty, I know the ability of General Chu Yun just like you do."
"I also understand that even if he doesn't underestimate the enemy, the outcome of this battle will not be better than it is now."
"You can even say that it's not a crime of war."
"After all, we have to face Xie Daoxun. No one can guarantee that they can escape unscathed."
"The main reason why I didn't mention this matter is that I wanted to avoid putting too much pressure on General Chu Yun."
"But I didn't expect that General Chu Yun was so upright that he actually announced this matter in public."
Hearing this, Jiang Wan'er smiled faintly and said, "So, he has failed you in your efforts?"
Zhao Hao nodded: "A little bit."
Jiang Wan'er shook her head and smiled, saying, "I called you here for two things."
"First, how is your clock workshop going?"
"I heard from Yongning the other day that you haven't been home for a long time and have been stuck in the workshop?"
Upon hearing this, Zhao Hao immediately began to complain speechlessly.
"Your Majesty, you don't know that I have been working so hard to make qualified reeds."
"For a month and a half, I didn't even have a complete meal. I couldn't hold on many times."
"However, when I thought about the people who were still waiting for their pensions, I gritted my teeth and held on."
"Alas, compared to your Majesty, compared to the soldiers fighting on the battlefield, and compared to the people who are suffering."
"What does it matter if I suffer this little?"
Jiang Wan'er obviously didn't believe his nonsense, and snorted, "It seems that you still understand the righteousness in your heart!"
Zhao Hao said quickly: "As the saying goes, a red flower becomes redder when it is close to a red flower, and a black flower becomes blacker when it is close to a black flower. It's all because of your Majesty's good teaching!"
Jiang Wan'er smiled and said, "How about this? I'll give you a real job in the Shaofu?"
Shaofu is in charge of business, which is equivalent to the industrial and commercial management department.
Hearing this, Zhao Hao was immediately shocked and shook his head, "Your Majesty, you can't..."
Jiang Wan'er glared at him and said, "Didn't you just say you were righteous and awe-inspiring?"
"Why, when I ask you to do something, you immediately become incapable of doing it?"
Zhao Hao said quickly: "Your Majesty, I am also working now, and who else can do something like this except me?"
Jiang Wan'er thought about it, then nodded slightly and said, "That's not wrong."
"Okay, I know you're lazy, so I won't let you do anything else."
Zhao Hao breathed a sigh of relief: "Thank you, Your Majesty. Don't worry, the clock will be ready soon."
"No more than half a month at most."
Jiang Wan'er nodded: "That's good, I am still very confident in your work."
This is absolutely the truth.
Zhao Hao is just lazy, and he just seems out of touch on the surface.
But it’s still reliable.
No matter what task he was given, whether it was opening a porcelain workshop or serving as a representative of a diplomatic mission to the Kingdom of Shu, he did an excellent job.
