After hearing what Zhao Xin said, Wei Wenzheng became very anxious: "Your Majesty, this is not the case now.
This involves the dignity of our Great Qin Empire. If our Great Qin Empire is weak this time, all the enemies around us will take advantage of this opportunity to demand money and property from us.
Even if we have a lot of supplies, if they continue to be robbed like this, our people will suffer in the end."
This old man is very anxious now.
Because he obviously couldn't see that there were a lot of people opposing him just now. If he really expressed his opinions, he would definitely lose.
But the problem here now cannot be solved by just expressing one's stance.
The problem here now is that we have to send troops.
Li Tiansheng and others originally thought that they had the situation under control. Now when they heard Zhao Xin actually proposed such a simple voting method, they immediately became complacent and stood directly to the right.
Soon such a vote came out directly.
Zhao Xin discovered that there were only about 1/10 of the people standing on the left, or even less.
And the majority of people standing on the right were densely packed. It could be said that most of the officials in their court were on the right.
Of course, there are also some people who neither stand on the left nor on the right. They still stay in the middle, which looks like they are abstaining from voting.
Zhao Xin stood up at this time and said coldly, "I see, I understand.
According to you, I should send a large amount of supplies to Li Zhennan and then ask him to withdraw his troops, right?"
"That's right, Your Majesty, this is the only way to ensure peace and prosperity for our country and our people!
Your Majesty, please do this, so that our Great Qin Empire can enjoy long-term peace and stability.
Our Great Qin Empire will surely become a powerful nation in the future."
Li Tiansheng now looks completely sincere because she feels that Zhao Xin must have made a decision.
Unexpectedly, Zhao Xin's eyes became more and more terrifying: "You mean, you want me to use money to please that bastard Li Zhennan, right?
Do you know what that bastard Li Zhennan did?
That bastard made a lot of preparations to invade our Great Qin Empire.
They even sent a lot of people to our Great Qin Empire to act as spies.
Are they just asking for some food?
They clearly want us dead.
They want to destroy our Great Qin Empire and make our people work like slaves for them.
You can't even see something like this, are you blind?"
He spoke these words very fluently, almost in one breath.
After hearing this, all the ministers in the court were stunned.
This seems to be a little different from the script they imagined.
Didn’t Zhao Xin already make the decision?
Didn’t they say that the emperor was under their control this morning?
Li Tiansheng said anxiously, "Your Majesty, this is absolutely not the case.
Even if Li Zhennan sent spies here in advance, it was only because he wanted to understand the emperor of our Great Qin Empire so that he could attack better.
In fact, its purpose is just to get some food.
It's just a little bit of food, why should we be reluctant to give it up?
Do we have to fight a big war with them just for a little food?
Your Majesty, have you ever thought about how much loss we will suffer after such a war?
"If a war breaks out, how many civilians will be killed and injured? Has His Majesty the Emperor ever considered this?"
Zhao Xin snorted coldly, "If we don't start a war, won't there be losses?
Not to mention what if Li Zhennan doesn't leave after we give him the things?
Especially if we give them food, they will have so much food that they can launch attacks on the border area continuously for months and years. What will we do then?"
He asked this, and then continued, "Just like what Wei Wenzheng said just now, even if we gave so much food and sent Li Zhennan away.
But what if, in addition to Li Zhennan, other countries around us also do the same to us? What should we do then?
Do we have to continue sending it?
Then send it down.
How many times can our entire Great Qin Empire hold out?
Even if we had mountains of gold and silver, would we still have enough wealth if we gave them away like this?"
In this day and age, food can be said to be the foundation of everything.
After all, food is the most important thing for people. Only with food can people have enough to eat. Only when they have enough to eat will people have the energy and time to think about other problems, study other tools, etc.
Only in this way can their Great Qin Empire develop in a long-term and stable manner.
If the people do not have enough food to eat, then their Great Qin Empire will definitely become quite chaotic, and an emperor like him will probably not be able to rule for long.
Zhao Xin just repeated what Wei Wenzhen had just said, but the effect was completely different.
Those people standing on the side with more people were all stunned.
In this case, His Majesty the Emperor is rejecting their statement?
How is this possible?
Didn’t His Majesty the Emperor just say that he would agree with whichever side had more people?
How can an emperor go back on his word?
Han Tianqi came out and said to Zhao Xin with gritted teeth, "Your Majesty, you have already promised that as long as more ministers agree to send food, you will accept our suggestion.
A king's words are not a joke. If an emperor fools his subjects, the consequences will be very serious.
From now on, no one will believe what His Majesty says, which is probably not a good thing for His Majesty."
What this guy said was very interesting, and it seemed to be well-reasoned. If it were an ordinary person, it would seem that there would be no way to refute it.
Because this is indeed the case for them.
If an emperor often refutes his own words, will anyone still believe what he says in the future?
If no one believes what an emperor says, then there is no need for him to remain as emperor, as he would be waiting for death even if he continues.
But Zhao Xin snorted coldly: "What are you kidding?
Will no one listen to me in the future?
You don't have to worry about these things.
But you guys, each of you has ulterior motives and wants to mislead me.
In addition, each of you who keeps speaking for Li Zhennan over there is simply bribed by Li Zhennan, and then misleading me here.
Your actions are tantamount to treason. Come, throw all these guys into the prison and wait for execution in the autumn."
