Unfortunately, in order to prevent his luck from continuing to rise, Wei Yunyi cannot be too strong now.
We cannot treat it like we did with Gaoyang Kingdom.
Although he knew it in his heart.
The Tiandu Kingdom is very powerful, and even if the Wei Dynasty sends troops, it is impossible to destroy the country.
But winning a battle will also affect your luck, so you must make a careful decision on this matter.
We finally came up with two major projects to consume our luck and national strength. At this time, we can't let anything go wrong.
After all, it’s not too long until the next settlement.
You have to be more stable.
After a brief moment of thought, Wei Yunyi raised his head and looked at the ministers below, saying, "My dear ministers, today the Du Kingdom has repeatedly invaded the borders of our Great Wei. What do you think we should do?"
After saying this, he continued without hesitation, "Emperor Taizu Gao once left a will that the Tiandu Kingdom and the Great Wei Kingdom are on good terms and should not start a war lightly, so let's not talk about sending troops."
As soon as these words were spoken, Song Hongzhi, who was about to step out of the line, stopped immediately.
He couldn't understand why his brother-in-law, the emperor, wanted him to be the Protector of Gaoyang.
As soon as he heard that Tiandu Kingdom had repeatedly invaded Wei, his eyes lit up immediately.
I thought it would be better to just ask for a fight.
Then lead the army and continue to win a great victory.
But unexpectedly, the emperor's brother-in-law said that troops could not be sent.
This made Song Hongzhi a little disappointed, but he didn't dare to complain. He just stood there quietly.
Wei Yunyi had naturally anticipated all this, so he said that he could not send troops. Fortunately, the last words of Emperor Taizu Gao gave him the best excuse.
Below, the court officials looked at each other, all undecided.
Since the Tiandu Kingdom took the initiative to invade, it stands to reason that the Wei Dynasty's dispatch of troops would definitely have a legitimate reason and be a relatively correct choice.
But the last words of Emperor Taizu Gao could not be ignored. Even Zhang Zhengming hesitated and did not speak.
As mentioned before, those are the rules set by our ancestors and cannot be changed without permission.
Of course, there is a premise here.
The question is whether the current emperor also abides by this rule.
If this is followed, then even if the ministers below have objections in their hearts, they cannot say anything, otherwise it would be considered disrespectful to the ancestors, which is a serious crime.
However, if Your Majesty does not comply and wants to change, and the people below also support it, then no one will make a fuss about it.
But the problem is that Wei Yunyi has now spoken out, saying that he will abide by Emperor Gao's last words.
This left everyone present at a loss as to what to do.
You can't be too aggressive and start a war directly.
But it is impossible to keep retreating and let the Tiandu Kingdom become even more powerful, right?
If the other party really takes back that piece of land, it will be dangerous for Wei. At least the entire Wusi area will be affected.
So everyone thought that this matter was really too difficult to deal with.
And Wei Yunyi seemed to have anticipated all this.
Looking at the troubled expressions of everyone below, he shook his head slightly, thought for a moment, and then said, "Lord Chen, you are the number one scholar chosen by me. What are your thoughts on this matter?"
Chen Aiqing is naturally Chen Xuance.
In Wei Yunyi's eyes, he is a person with the potential to become a treacherous minister.
Since no one else can explain it, let the other person talk about it.
It's a good opportunity to test whether the other party is as he thought and whether he has the potential to grow into a treacherous minister in the future.
Below, Chen Xuance, who had been acting as if it had nothing to do with him and was keeping a distance, was stunned when he heard His Majesty call his name.
Aren't I an official of the Censorate? Isn't it enough to just give advice?
Chen Xuance was helpless.
But he is a well-read man after all.
At the same time, he is knowledgeable and understands the relationship between Dawei and Tiandu very well.
At this time, the answer made the court choose to fight back strongly, which indeed showed its backbone.
But the problem is, if I know all this, don’t all the civil and military officials in the court know it?
Look at the young uncle who has just been named Marquis of Guanjun.
He must be in favor of war in his heart.
But why not bring it up now? Isn't it because Your Majesty doesn't want to go to war?
Chen Xuance had already figured it out in his mind. The current emperor did not want to fall out with the Tiandu Kingdom, but he certainly did not want to damage the dignity of the Great Wei at this time.
So after a brief moment of thought, he stood up without hesitation and said, "Your Majesty, I believe that the Tiandu Kingdom has invaded the border of the Great Wei and we should have responded with force. However, the Emperor Taizu Gao has left a will that this action is inappropriate for the Great Wei."
"Therefore, I think we can send an envoy to Tiandu to explain the severity of the situation to the king and ask him to withdraw his troops."
"This way, not only will we avoid going to war, but we can also save the reputation of our Great Wei."
Chen Xuance's words.
All the ministers present turned their heads.
Some people think this is a good idea and can perfectly solve the problem.
But there was still a large number of people whose facial expressions did not change at all.
Especially the Minister of Rites Wang Lun, who was full of helplessness.
Because many people have thought of this idea.
Let the court send an envoy to Tiandu to resolve the dispute between the two countries.
But the question is who should go and who can complete this task?
You know, Wang Lun's Ministry of Rites has negotiated with the Tiandu Kingdom many times and has made concessions, but the other party has completely ignored it. Otherwise, he would not have brought this matter to the grand court meeting.
Because the strength of Tiandu Kingdom has exceeded the expectations of the Ministry of Rites.
According to Wang Lun's idea, the only way to resolve this matter is either to go to war or give up the land.
