As soon as Qian Zhutong said these words, everyone took a collective breath.

Today's fourth prince is not someone that ordinary ministers can afford to offend!

Not only did he quarrel with the scholars and make a group of officials speechless, he was now the right-hand man around Emperor Liang.

Compared with the idiot before, he is a completely different person!

However, it is not unreasonable for Qian Zhutong to speak so carelessly.

Although Qian Zhutong was only a minister of the Ministry of War, his background was not low.

Before becoming an official, he was a partial general of General Xu Rong. As Xu Rong's right-hand man, he followed him for ten years.

Therefore, even though he is only the minister of the Ministry of War, he can almost sit with Shangshu Jiang Tian in the Ministry of War.

Qian Zhutong himself also acted in a very high-profile manner, often treating himself as a close confidant of the general.

The civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty gave the general this face, and they all respected Qian Zhutong.

Qian Zhutong was used to pretending to be a tiger, and over time, he no longer paid attention to most of the courtiers!

Now that the general has just defeated Bei Yuan, after returning to Beijing, he may go directly to Liangzhou to quell the horse bandit rebellion.

If this is really the case, then the general has accomplished two feats in a row!

By that time, he will be the number one general in Daliang that cannot be ignored!

He is just a fourth prince, so he must not be taken seriously compared to the general!

Thinking of this, Qian Zhutong raised his head even higher.

Seeing Qian Zhutong's arrogant and triumphant appearance, Song Huan snorted lightly.

"Mr. Qian, make no mistake, the discussion now is not whether I am useful, but you, as the Minister of War, only know how to ridicule me here!"

"You yourself are already a complete waste, why do you still have the nerve to talk so shamelessly? Is there any use in blaming others?"

"..." Qian Zhutong's face turned red, "Fourth Prince, please don't say too much!"

"If you really have a clever plan, then give it to Your Majesty in front of the civil and military officials of the court, and help His Majesty solve your problems!"

"If the fourth prince can only talk quickly, then I suggest that the fourth prince should stop participating in political affairs and cause trouble to His Majesty!"

Seeing that the debate between the two was gradually becoming more intense, a group of courtiers also watched enthusiastically.

Qian Zhutong was really courageous. In just a few words, he wanted the fourth prince to stop taking charge of the affairs of the government!

Anyone with a discerning eye can see that Qian Zhutong is clearly paving the way for the second prince's official career after returning to Beijing.

Now that the second prince was away, the fourth prince took advantage of the situation and came in, and for a while he was in the limelight.

If this obstacle is not removed, there will definitely be another strong competitor after the second prince returns to Beijing!

Qian Zhutong's words were obviously different from the content of the bachelor's talk.

If the fourth prince really can't think of a solution to the problem, he will really leave in despair!

Among the courtiers, many could not help but sweat for Song Huan.

The pressure came on Song Huan, but Song Huan remained calm and calm, showing no signs of being angered by Qian Zhutong.

"Isn't it a brilliant idea? Of course I have it."

"It's just that this king came up with this clever plan, which further proves that Lord Qian, as the Minister of War, has made no achievements and has no effect at all!"

"If this king's clever plan works, then please ask Mr. Qian to resign and never serve as an official again in this life."

Oops——

Song Huan's words caused an explosion in the peaceful court again!

"The excitement has become lively. Now the Fourth Prince and Mr. Qian are determined to fight to the death..."

"I think the Fourth Prince is right! As the Minister of War, I should advise His Majesty! Why do you blame the Fourth Prince for all the problems?"

"Tsk, why did you suddenly start flattering the Fourth Prince? He can't even hear you from such a distance!"

"Shh! Don't talk nonsense! I am obviously impressed by the charisma of His Highness the Fourth Prince..."

Amid the low-pitched discussions among the courtiers, Qian Zhutong's chest rose and fell violently, as if Song Huan's words made him very happy.

Now the arrow is on the string and has to be fired. I don’t want to agree to this bet, but I have to agree!

"good!"

"Then Weichen will agree to the fourth prince's bet!"

Qian Zhutong slapped his hands as big as two sandbags and said in a loud voice.

"If the clever plan proposed by the fourth prince is reasonable, can be adopted by His Majesty, and can be really used on the battlefield to suppress bandits in Liangzhou!"

"Wei Chen is willing to take the initiative to resign and will never step into the officialdom of Daliang again!"

"If there is any violation, he will be punished by heaven and earth!"

"but!"

"If the fourth prince can't explain why, or he talks nonsense and makes nonsense."

"Then please, the fourth prince, stay away from the court from now on, and live in peace and contentment as a well-fed prince!"

Qian Zhutong's eyes widened with anger, his eyes were about to burst, and he gritted his back molars loudly.

The two temples on his forehead suddenly bulged outwards. This is a sign of a martial artist's true energy leaking out.

It can be seen that Qian Zhutong is extremely emotional at this moment and is trying his best to control it.

Compared with his anxiety, Song Huan seemed much calmer.

"good!"

"Your Majesty, my father, I would like to ask my father to bear witness to the bet between my son and Mr. Qian!"

Emperor Liang had been sitting on the dragon throne and witnessed the whole process.

To be honest, no matter in the previous dynasty or in the current dynasty, Emperor Liang had never seen a scene of betting between ministers and princes!

Seeing that one of them was angry and the other was calm and composed, Emperor Liang couldn't help but frown.

"The important place of the court is not the place where you two swore an oath!"

"Isn't this treating government affairs as child's play?"

"How dignified!"

Seeing that Emperor Liang was angry, everyone knelt down quickly.

"Your Majesty, please calm down!"

Song Huan even said repeatedly: "Father, please be patient and calm!"

"The main reason is the recent chaos of horse bandits in Liangzhou, which has disturbed my father very much."

"My son, by doing this, I also want to relieve your worries, Father!"

The reason why Emperor Liang was angry was that, firstly, he felt that the two of them were messing around here, and secondly, he was afraid that Song Huan would lose the bet with Qian Zhutong.

He, a prince, made a bet with a minister. If he lost, he would lose face, so that was all.

But that bet means that from now on, you will not be allowed to participate in government affairs!

Emperor Liang finally looked forward to the day when Song Huan changed his appearance and no longer wanted to be a straw bag. He really didn't want to see him become that good-for-nothing guy again!

However, seeing Song Huan so calm and composed without any fear, Emperor Liang couldn't help but have a thought.

Could it be that the brat had already thought of a countermeasure while speaking?

If this is true, then this kid is really a god!

After a strong ideological struggle, Emperor Liang sighed lightly and waved his hand.

"The imperial court is an important place, and this will not happen again!"

"I only give you this one chance. If you mess around again next time, get out of here!"
