Chapter 482 Opposition
"We can take this opportunity to replace these people."
Gu Jingchun nodded.
"People do need to be replaced, but now is not the right time. Let's wait until this matter is over!"
Shen Hechuan nodded.
"Yes, it's time for a change of officials in our Dacheng."
"There are hundreds of people in the entire court, but few of them can fight. If Mo Junxing were to attack our palace one day, these guys would probably just run away."
Gu Jingchun smiled.
"Don't worry, that day won't come."
"We will not give Mo Junxing the opportunity to set foot on our Dacheng land."
Shen Hechuan nodded.
"right!"
"That day will never come."
"If Da Qi really wants to go to war, then I will personally lead the army and drive Da Qi away. I will never let you be in any danger again."
Upon hearing this, Gu Jingchun suddenly straightened up.
She looked at Shen Hechuan's serious expression.
"Are you serious?"
Shen Hechuan nodded.
“Yes, I’ve thought about it.
If Da Qi really dares to come, then I dare to go.
However, I will have to trouble you with the affairs of the court when the time comes."
Gu Jingchun was still very surprised and stared at Chen Hechuan blankly.
Shen Hechuan held her in his arms again.
"Okay, don't worry, it'll be fine."
"Don't forget, I got to know you because of the war."
Gu Jingchun instantly remembered the wound on Shen Hechuan's body and became even more nervous.
However, she also knew that Shen Hechuan had made up his mind and would not change it no matter what she said.
Besides, she had no way to stop it.
She could only hold Chen Hechuan tightly and feel his breath.
It was not until the next morning court session that all the officials learned that Gu Erli and Li Yunba had gone to the border.
They all began to dissuade him.
After all, fighting a war means needing food and supplies.
Although the national treasury is now much better, it is still stretched, so all the officials began to dissuade him immediately.
"Your Majesty, this is absolutely unacceptable. Now is the time to rest and recuperate. If a war breaks out, it will be detrimental to our success!"
Gu Jingchun spoke at this time.
"But what if Da Qi wants to go to war at this time?"
Hearing this, all the officials laughed.
Someone even snorted coldly.
After all, Gu Jingchun had rarely spoken since they came to court, so all the officials assumed that she did not understand state affairs and immediately retorted:
"Empress, you may not understand, but it is even more impossible for the Great Qi to go to war now.
The current Great Qi has just experienced a civil war and a major reshuffle in the court. It is natural that they should rest and recuperate at this time. How could they start a war?"
"Your Majesty, please listen carefully to His Majesty before speaking."
"Yeah?"
Gu Jingchun chuckled and didn't intend to argue with them.
Rather than arguing to prove herself, she prefers to slap people in the face with facts.
When Shen Hechuan heard this, he was also very unhappy and could not help but glared at the official fiercely.
After that, he was too lazy to say more to them and just gave orders to prepare food and fodder.
Jiang Chongfan also stood up at this time.
"Your Majesty, please think twice about this matter!"
Shen Hechuan snorted coldly:
"Master Jiang, please think twice. Where are the people from Guiyuan Sect whom I asked you to capture?"
Jiang Chongfan was blocked and could not speak for a while.
He paused before continuing.
"Your Majesty, I feel..."
"Okay, you don't have to feel that way anymore. This matter is settled. If anyone has any objections, come and see me with your head."
After Shen Hechuan finished speaking, he stood up and left with Gu Jingchun.
However, the officials argued endlessly about this, and even after leaving the palace, they continued to talk about it.
Of course, there are still people who keep harping on what Gu Jingchun said.
It is said that Gu Jingchun does not understand the affairs of state at all, and he even has the audacity to say that Da Qi will attack our Dacheng at this juncture!
He even went so far as to instigate Shen Hechuan because of this.
Not only did Shen Hechuan have to send people to the border, but he also had to raise a large amount of food and fodder.
The national treasury is empty now, where can we get the money to buy so much food and fodder?
Jiang Chongfan has been in regret ever since his granddaughter's death.
He even blamed Gu Jingchun for his granddaughter's death.
In his opinion, if it weren't for Gu Jingchun, the position of queen would definitely belong to Jiang Mingwan. Even if she couldn't get the position of queen, she could even get the position of concubine.
However, Gu Jingchun couldn't even tolerate a woman, which is why he forced his granddaughter to death.
Therefore, he has always harbored hatred towards Gu Jingchun.
Now that he finally got the chance, he naturally wouldn't let it go.
So, after leaving the palace, he sighed seemingly unintentionally.
"Alas, the future of our Dacheng is worrying!"
The officials around came over when they heard this.
"Master Jiang, what do you mean by this?"
"But what did you hear?"
Jiang Chongfan continued to sigh.
"I am merely lamenting that our Majesty, a man of great wisdom throughout his life, is now destined to be destroyed by this woman?"
The officials around him were already very dissatisfied with Gu Jingchun's involvement in political affairs.
But before, Gu Jingchun was like a mascot at the morning court, rarely speaking.
Therefore, the ministers did not say much.
What Gu Jingchun said today was quite ridiculous, which made the ministers dissatisfied.
Now, with Jiang Chongfan's words, they were all filled with indignation.
"Yes, our Majesty has always been wise. Since ascending the throne, he has been diligently working for the welfare of the people and has not made any mistakes in his decisions until now."
"But now, just because of the Queen's words, I actually did such a wrong thing. This is really..."
This person said this but didn't point it out directly afterwards, but everyone understood and nodded.
"Yes, you are right. Letting the Empress, who has no knowledge of state affairs, manage the government is not only detrimental to the court, but also affects Your Majesty's judgment, and ultimately affects our country!"
Everyone nodded as he spoke, and they all felt that what he said made sense.
One of them spoke cautiously.
"But what if Da Qi really wants to send troops to our Da Cheng?"
After he finished speaking, everyone snorted.
"How is this possible?"
"Da Qi has just experienced a civil war. The monarch finally dealt with Queen Mother Xiao. Now is the time to recuperate and completely eliminate Queen Mother Xiao's forces. How could he have the energy to come and attack us Da Cheng?"
"Yes, anyone with a brain would know that."
