When Goguryeo's letter of appeal for help reached Tianjing, the entire Dajin court was a sensation.According to common sense, the grand court at the Golden Luan Hall will not be held until the [-]th day of the Lunar New Year. However, all requests for help from the vassal states have been sent to Tianjing, just to not chill the hearts of the vassal states. The court still received the news on the third day The Great Court Meeting was held that day.

The Goguryeo envoys also made an exception to attend the meeting. Among them, the one who read Goguryeo's request for help was the Goguryeo prince Li Wei, and his two younger brothers Li Lu and Li Shuang also knelt behind him. The blue round-neck gown that represents the identity of the Guozijian students.

To be honest, Gao Que and Li Wei stared wide-eyed when they saw the empress appearing with the emperor and sitting shoulder to shoulder with the emperor on the dragon chair above.

Although they already knew.But knowing it and seeing it with your own eyes are two different things.If they hadn't kept in mind today's mission, they would all be impeached.

Jia Yan didn't care what the Goguryeo envoys thought, or in other words, even if she knew, she didn't care.

He heard Goguryeo's plea for help, but he didn't know why in his heart, the insult to the Ming Dynasty by the people of Bangzi Kingdom in his previous life emerged.In another time and space, the Ming Dynasty also sent troops to aid these guys at the request of the Bangzi Kingdom?But what about the result?Thinking about the various villains of the Ming Dynasty in the film and television dramas of Bangzi Kingdom in later generations, Jia Yan has an urge to throw these guys out.

If these guys really remember the goodness of the Central Plains, they must completely conquer this country and incorporate this country into the territory of Dajin. Years later, God knows what kind of faces they will have.

Sitting next to the emperor, Jia Yan's expression can be said to be indifferent, and even the emperor could see that she was a little unhappy.

In fact, there were not one or two people who found Jia Yan unhappy at the time. Of course, most people thought that Jia Yan was only unhappy because the Dongying people made trouble.

For example, Ding Qing'an, the right servant of the Ministry of War, said this way: "Long live, and my mother, in my humble opinion, this Dongying person is a typical sinister villain with two faces and three knives. The court should send troops and teach them a lesson. yes."

Hu Yu, the censor of the Yushitai, hesitated for a moment, and then came out and said: "Long live, I think that the Dongying people are originally overseas barbarians. Although they have their own royal family, the royal family's power has fallen apart. The conquests are endless. Not to mention that Ke Chengye was ordered to go south to pacify Lingnan. I think these Dongying people were suppressed by General Ke, so they took advantage of General Ke's absence to make trouble in the East China Sea." Hu Yu snorted coldly, and said : "It's just that these people were obviously scared by Ke Chengye's beating, so they didn't dare to make trouble in my Dajin coast, so they could only go to Goguryeo for trouble."

In a word, the Dongying people bully the weak and fear the hard, without the mountain of Ke Chengye, they just jump around.However, Goguryeo was purely unlucky, and had no defense against these Japanese pirates, so it was tricked.

Ding Tao, the envoy of the Privy Council, also came out and said: "Long live, I have something to ask the prince of Goguryeo."

"allow."

Ding Tao turned to Li Fu and said, "I am very curious about one thing, and I hope that Prince Wang can clear up my doubts."

Li Fu said pitifully: "How dare you work hard, sir? Please tell me, sir, I will know everything without saying it."

"With Wang Shizi's words, I feel relieved." Ding Tao said, "What I am curious about is why Goguryeo built 180 giant ships, but didn't bother with this coastal defense? If Goguryeo built giant ships at the beginning Bang’s money and food are all used to build fortifications, and now Goguryeo will not be driven straight in by the Dongying people.”

Li Wei was dumbfounded at the time.

Fortunately, his reaction was not slow, he blinked, forced himself to calm down, bowed to the emperor sitting on it, and said: "My lord, there is a saying that it is better to resist the enemy than to resist the enemy from outside the country." Thousands of miles away. I, Goguryeo, built so many giant mongooses, originally to resist the enemy thousands of miles away."

Ding Tao said: "So, it is true that Goguryeo built 180 giant ships?"

Li Wei's back was covered with cold sweat.

As for Gao Que standing at the door, his face suddenly turned pale.

He never expected that Prince Li Fu would fall into such a simple language trap.

Li Fu panicked and said: "No, I..."

"This is strange. Goguryeo reports 22 warships to the imperial court every year. If Goguryeo wants to fight back against Japanese pirates, it will report directly to the imperial court. The imperial court is not saying that it cannot be lenient. However, Goguryeo secretly built 180 giant ships. Not even a second-class warship. Can Wang Shizi explain it?"

The entire Golden Luang Palace was in an uproar.

In fact, many people already knew this in advance, otherwise, it would not be the case for the Lengtouqing who is famous for Yushitai like Hu Yu and who likes to sing against his superiors.

Li Wei was dumbfounded.

Li Lu's reaction was a little faster.Although he was only a concubine prince and had entered the Imperial College before, Li Lu knew Gao Que and Li Wei's actions better than anyone else.Obviously, in order to save the country, these two must have given generous gifts to several important ministers of the Shang Kingdom in advance, fully thinking that they would speak for them.Don't even think about it, the moment Goguryeo built so many giant mangs behind Shangguo's back, it is already doomed that Shangguo will turn a blind eye to Goguryeo today.

However, as the prince of Goguryeo, Li Lu couldn't ignore his motherland, and, as the prince of Goguryeo, he also had resentment in his heart: why?Why can't Goguryeo build warships for itself according to its own wishes?Why?Why should Goguryeo's military and state affairs be listened to by others?

This resentment, this love for the motherland, drove Li Lu to raise her head, and said loudly: "Although I only found out about this after I left the country, as a prince, I also want to know, Why can't Goguryeo build giant mangs!"

There was silence in the Golden Luan Hall.

Only then did Jia Yan speak slowly, and said: "It is indeed a good question. Yes, the issue of Goguryeo's warships was discussed by Emperor Gaozu's envoys in person with your King Sejong. The 22 warships belonged to your Sejong. The king himself proposed it. This document is still sealed in the Palace of Qinzheng. Why, don’t you know?”

Of course Li Lu knew.

In fact, according to the records of their Koguryo royal family, King Sejong wrote in his own diary that there has always been only a comparison of strengths between countries and no eternal enemies.These 22 warships were determined by King Sejong of Goguryeo after comparing the strength of Goguryeo and Dajin and considering the harm of Japanese pirates.At that time, Japan had been in chaos for more than 200 years, and King Sejong of Goguryeo wrote in his diary that Japan would continue to be in chaos for hundreds of years.But the general trend of the world, long-term unity will be divided, and long-term unity will be united. After hundreds of years of chaos in Japan, there will be unity one day.

This diary is one of the ancestral teachings of the Goguryeo royal family, and the reason why Goguryeo built so many giant mangs has a lot to do with the upcoming unification of Dongying mentioned in this document.

"I'm terrified. Your Majesty." Li Lu lay on the ground and said, "My Majesty, as a concubine prince, my understanding of King Sejong of Goguryeo is limited. At least, I have never seen King Sejong's handwriting. He heard a few words from brother Wang's mouth. The minister only found out later that the reason why the father built so many giant monsters was to resist the harm of the Japanese pirates, or to completely solve the harm of the Japanese pirates."
