Great Wei scholar

Chen Zhengru explained the first meaning.

But he deliberately explained this, in fact, he said it to the empress.

He didn't know what the Empress was thinking, but he had to make it clear in advance, if the Empress really dismissed Xu Qingxiao's official position, there would be nothing to say.

Even if Xu Qingxiao had a great reason to stay in Dawei, he would probably leave and not go to other countries, but he would definitely go back to the mountains and fields, so he would not be angry.

Especially for a young man who is full of vigor.

So Chen Zhengru was reminding the Empress.

On the dragon chair, the empress instantly understood what Chen Zhengru meant, and she couldn't help but speak immediately.

"In any case, unless Xu Aiqing did something that betrayed the country, I will never remove her from office."

The Empress opened her mouth and gave an answer, which also made Chen Zhengru feel completely at ease.

As the empress said so, Chen Zhengru continued to explain the second thing.

"I believe that the foreign race is not testing His Majesty's attitude towards Xu Shouren."

"It's testing, His Majesty's attitude towards foreign countries breaking away from the Great Wei."

Chen Zhengru opened his mouth, word by word, and when he said this, the faces of the five ministers changed drastically in an instant.

"Chen Shangshu, are you serious?"

"Separate from the Great Wei? Chen Shangshu, what is the basis?"

"Impossible, no matter how courageous they are, they will never dare to leave Wei, are they desperate?"

"If they dare to break away from the Great Wei, I will personally lead the troops to conquer the countries."

"Chen Shangshu, is this statement serious?"

All the ministers spoke one after another, and their faces became very ugly. After all, Chen Zhengru's assumption was a bit exaggerated.

Break away from Wei?

What is the role of dependent states?

Demonstrate the prestige of the main country.

Increase luck of the main country.

Deploy the war layout.

Tributary tax payer country.

These four are the role of the subordinate countries. To put it bluntly, they are the younger brothers. To show the majesty of the big country, after all, a big country cannot be justified without the support of the younger brothers.

But the most important thing is to increase the fate of the country. The more dependent countries, the stronger the fate of the country. If the dependent countries leave, it will have a great impact on the fate of the country, especially for these not weak dependent countries. If they leave the Great Wei Dynasty .

At least half of the country's luck will be lost.

This is half the fate of the country, and it will take decades or even hundreds of years for Wei to remedy it.

As for how to deploy the war layout and pay tribute and taxes, it is also the most important thing.

Paying tribute and paying taxes has the least effect. After all, since the prosperity of the Great Wei Dynasty, many foreign countries have been almost exempted from paying tribute and paying taxes.

Especially after the fall of the Great Wei Dynasty, they were all exempted, just like the birthday of the empress. They sent things, and the Ministry of Rites had to prepare things to send back. In fact, it was just a formalistic, face-saving project.

However, the three things of national fortune, national prestige, and war layout are extremely important.

"How did Chen Aiqing see it?"

The empress looked calm, she didn't change at all, but asked Chen Zhengru why he thought they were testing this.

"Go back to Your Majesty."

"Sir, get a secret report from the northern border. In the past few months, the barbarians in the north have been ready to move. I don't know where to get a large amount of weapons and various food and property."

"It is very possible that the northern barbarians will fight against us again."

"And today, the Twelve Alien Kingdoms suddenly launched an attack, ostensibly to impeach Xu Shouren, but it is impossible for them not to know Xu Shouren's status in the Great Wei Dynasty."

"They did it on purpose to trouble Xu Shouren, knowing that His Majesty will not agree, and then they will use very radical methods to force His Majesty to agree."

"If His Majesty refuses to agree, they may voluntarily leave the Great Wei Dynasty and choose to seek refuge with the barbarians in the north. Behind this, there may also be the figures of the Yuan Dynasty and the Tuxie Dynasty."

"Otherwise, no matter how I think about it, I still can't figure out why they want to impeach Xu Shouren."

This is Chen Zhengru's explanation.

His information was obtained one month later than the empress, but also earlier than the other five books.

"My lord, I also received a secret report that the trade in the northern region has suddenly increased. Among them, the grain and grass category is the most, and some unknown forces are buying a large amount of grain and grass."

Hubu Shangshu Gu Yan also followed suit.

"My lord, I have also received a secret report. These days, many foreign races have come to our towns and counties in various places in the Great Wei Dynasty, and they are suspected of spying on the intelligence."

Zhang Jing, Shangshu of the Ministry of Punishments, also received a secret report.

As for the Ministry of Industry and the Ministry of Rites, they would naturally not get any information, but Zhou Yan, Minister of the Ministry of War, did not receive any secret reports.

This made Zhou Yan a little strange.

"If that's the case, teach them a lesson."

"Your Majesty, I will go to the military plane immediately and decide on a battle strategy within three days to conquer the alien race and wipe out the injustice for the Great Wei."

Zhou Yan made a sound.

It is very reasonable that the Ministry of War Shangshu took the initiative to invite the battle.

But Chen Zhengru shook his head and said.

"No."

"If there is a fight, the northern barbarians will definitely intervene in this matter, and I'm afraid it will lead to a new round of the Northern Expedition."

"Now that the Great Wei has finally been at peace for a while, if the Northern Expedition advances earlier, it will step into the abyss."

"Furthermore, this is just the old man's conjecture. If they don't think so and you take the initiative to fight, it will be even more troublesome."

Chen Zhengru flatly refused.

Hit, absolutely not.

It's not that Wei can't afford to fight, but he can't fight.

Just after two good days, you are going to fight, who wants to fight?

The people are definitely not willing.

"Alien ambitions are well known to passers-by."

"Chen Shangshu, your tone has already told the old man that this matter is almost inseparable."

"Right now, we clearly know what they want to do, but if we are hesitating all the time, I'm afraid that it's one thing to lose the opportunity first, and it would be miserable to lose the great Wei Guowei later."

"It's just a group of dependent countries, and it's not the Northern Expedition. Could it be that Chen Shangshu is afraid?"

Zhou Yan was a little unhappy.

Knowing what other people mean, why don't you fight?Is it possible to just stand there and let people do whatever they want?

If so, he won't do it.

"Zhou Shangshu."

"Regardless of whether this is the case or not, at least don't plan for war now."

"The Twelve Alien Nations must have made a perfect plan. If there is a real fight, the northern barbarians will definitely be involved."

"Behind this is naturally the figures of the Yuan Dynasty and the Tuxie Dynasty."

"Once the troops are dispatched, they will fall into the enemy's trap step by step."

"When the time comes, it will be hard to recover, and the Great Wei must fight. In this way, the Northern Expedition will be launched again, the country will be in turmoil, and the people will panic."

"There are vassal kings who cede land. Once the army goes north, the vassal kings who cede land may rebel immediately."

"Even some demons and goblins will appear in the first place. What white clothes sect, demon sect, etc., emerge in endlessly."

"By that time, Great Wei will neither advance nor retreat, and will be in deep water and fire. In a few years, Great Wei will fall and become a purgatory on earth."

Chen Zhengru said very rationally.

It's not that I'm afraid of some dependent countries.

But the current Great Wei cannot fight.

It doesn't matter if it's a big battle or a small battle, because as long as the Great Wei raises troops, someone will turn a small matter into a big one.

At that time, you will change from active to passive, and fall into the enemy's trap step by step, killing you hard.

In the simplest terms.

There were no small battles in the Great Wei, and a war was an all-out war.

When Chen Zhengru said what he said, it seemed that he was earnest.

But Zhou Yan still couldn't help but speak.

"All-out war is all-out war!"

"Are you afraid they won't succeed?"

Zhou Yan said so, with a hot temper.

He understands this.

But if he bites the bullet and suffers, he won't do it.

He is the minister of the Ministry of War, and he is bloody, and what Chen Zhengru said is just speculation.

To put it bluntly, my little brother was about to ride in the face, but he didn't hit him?Who can stand this?He couldn't take it anyway.

Ugh!

Chen Zhengru ignored Zhou Yan, but looked at the empress and said.

"Your Majesty, I believe that this matter should be delayed for a few days in advance, and the imperial examination will be held next month. This matter can be used as an excuse to delay for a while."

"During this period of time, the minister and others have a good discussion, not only to prepare emergency measures, but also to investigate carefully and come up with countermeasures."

Chen Zhengru made a sound, wanting to delay for a while in this way.

Drag it as long as you can.

"allow."

The Empress spoke, and she agreed to Chen Zhengru's plan.

There is no other reason, Dawei really can't fight anymore.

Because the Great Wei had no small battles to speak of, it would be an all-out war if troops were sent out, and there would be no local wars at all.

Delay for a month first.

Then look at the attitude of the other party. If the other party sends a memorial again, then reject it. If the other party delays for another month, the other party will definitely not turn his face directly, and will negotiate and communicate.

Another month's delay, when Da Wei refuses again, it will be another month.

If they really turned against each other directly, Da Wei could still delay it for a month, and now it would be four or five months.

If you do a good job, you can delay it for half a year.

And in the past six months, Da Wei can definitely come up with the most comprehensive and perfect way to deal with it.

And taking advantage of these half a year, Dawei can also develop rapidly.

It's better than facing it now.

"My dear friends, go back and think about it carefully. This matter should not be spread."

"Okay, the lovers are also tired, go back and rest, it's not early today."

The empress opened her mouth, she approved of Chen Zhengru's method, and at the same time asked them to go back to rest, and it was now the three quarters of the hour.

"The ministers and others will retire, long live my emperor, long live, long live, long live."

The six ministers spoke together, but at this moment, they really didn't have any intentions to stay here any longer.

After leaving the Hall of Mental Cultivation.
