Tokugawa Teng was about to be driven crazy by Yan Qi.
Thirty big ships made him lose face.
No matter what he says now, Cha Mingxun will raise a question mark.
In a word: I no longer trust him.
Tokugawa Teng Gang must face Yan Qi and suppress Yan Qi's arrogance.
Otherwise, he will definitely lose today.
The officials of Goryeo could also see that the two people on the bright side of the dispute over the crown prince were Cha Hyun Joong and Cha Hyun Ki.
However, in reality, the decision-making power lies in the hands of Tokugawa Teng Gang and Yan Qi.
Behind these two people respectively represent the power of Japan and Dahua.
The struggle between the two powers has become intense.
None of the ministers dared to speak nonsense for fear of suffering unreasonable disasters.
Moreover, compared with Tokugawa Teng Gang and Yan Qi, they are insignificant.
Talking is like farting.
What's the use of saying it?
Why don't you just open your ears and listen.
Tokugawa Tenggang's face was red and his neck was thick, and he glared at Yan Qi blankly: "I don't have a lie, please don't confuse me."
Yan Qi sneered: "You just said it very clearly: the aid to Goryeo is selfless. This sentence is the biggest joke in the world. Even a three-year-old child doesn't believe it."
Tokugawa Teng Gang rushed to Yan Qi: "These words are from the bottom of my heart. Where is the lie? In front of the king, you must tell me clearly."
Yan Qi smiled: "It's not easy to expose your lies."
"If you have the guts, give it a try."
“If I poke you, I’ll poke you!
Yan Qi stood up and bowed his hands to everyone: "Everything in the world is bustling for profit, and the world is bustling for profit! We only do things for profit."
"There are only two types of aid without profit and selfless aid: one is family affection and the other is love. Lord, ministers, do you agree? This view should be very reasonable in our Confucian cultural circle, right? ?”
The ministers nodded.
This view cannot be refuted.
Cha Mingxun sighed, his eyes swept over Cha Xianzhong and Cha Xianji.
In my heart, of course I agree with this point of view.
If he did not agree with this view, he would not pass the title of king of the country to Cha Hyun Joong and Cha Hyun Ki.
After all, neither son is good enough.
Wouldn't it be better to pass it on to my nephew?
Yan Qi stared at Tokugawa Teng Gang:
"I want to ask you, is there any family relationship between you and Cha Xianji?"
Tokugawa Tengang blushed and said, "Of course there is no family affection."
Yan Qidao: "Since there is no family affection, is there love between you? Oh my god, maybe you have a habit of cutting sleeves?"
Everyone burst out laughing.
Tokugawa Teng Gang and Cha Xianji are so embarrassed.
"Yan Qi, what are you talking about? Who has the habit of cutting off his sleeves?"
"If you talk nonsense again, I will kick you out."
…
Yan Qi's face turned cold and she stared at Tokugawa Teng Gang: "Since there is neither family affection nor love between you and Cha Xianji, why do you offer selfless assistance to Cha Xianji? You are just fooling a fool."
Tokugawa Teng just fell into Yan Qi's trap again, regretful, and hurriedly struggled: "I am a good friend of Cha Xianji. Since we are good friends, I can also give selfless love."
Yan Qi sneered: "This is unconvincing. It's just a dead duck with a tough mouth and a dead body."
Tokugawa Teng was anxious: "According to your deduction, you helped Cha Xianzhong because of profit?"
Yan Qi nodded: "That's natural."
Tokugawa Teng Gang seemed to have grasped a life-saving straw and shouted in a panic: "Master of the country, did you hear it? Yan Qi supported Cha Xianzhong because of his own interests. He had malicious intentions towards Cha Xianzhong. "
Che Mingxun stared at Yan Qi.
Yan Qi's eyes were indifferent: "It goes without saying that I support Cha Xianzhong, and it is true that there are interests involved, but there are many kinds of interests. However, Tokugawa Teng Gang just described the interests as malicious, which is clearly deliberately confusing the public. "
Tokugawa Tengang shouted: "What you say sounds nice, but you are just beautifying yourself. You have the guts to speak out your interests and let everyone hear whether you have malicious intentions."
"Just tell me, there is nothing to be afraid of."
Yan Qidao: "I strongly support the king of Beishan County, not only because of nepotism and friendship, but also because Beishan County borders Dahua and the mountains are integrated. If there is a big chaos in Beishan County and the people are displaced, these people will flee to Dahua and give Dahua It brings a heavy burden to China, and similar situations have happened before."
"So, I want to nip it in the bud, support the Prince of Beishan, and stabilize the situation to prevent refugees from fleeing the famine! This is my interest, and I said it openly, so why not?"
"You...your interests..."
Tokugawa Tengang was speechless.
Yan Qi's interests were geostrategic, and the courtiers understood it immediately.
Cha Myung Hoon of course
I also know it well.
Because, when there was a crisis in Goryeo, people always fled to Dahua.
Dahua could not watch the people starve to death, so he had to open warehouses to stockpile grain and give out porridge and rice to save their lives.
In order to stabilize the situation in Beishan County, Yan Qi supported Cha Xianzhong, which was in line with Dahua's national policy.
Yan Qi stared at Tokugawa Teng Gang: "I support Cha Xianzhong. The reason is sufficient, the benefits are obvious, and everyone can understand it. However, the reason behind your support of Cha Xianji is full of doubts."
Tokugawa Tengang: "I am friends with Prince Nanshan, and I simply support him, isn't that okay? I support him selflessly."
"Ha ha!"
Yan Qidao: "Are you simply supporting the Prince of Nanshan? Or even selflessly? Just because you and Che Xianji are good friends?"
"Haha, do you know where your huge aid comes from? It comes from the Japanese treasury! Who controls the Japanese treasury? Of course it is the Tokugawa shogunate."
"Then the question arises: Could it be that the elders in the Tokugawa shogunate are also friends of Prince Nanshan? Are they selflessly dedicated to Prince Nanshan? Or is it that these elders are just idiots and are indifferent to your misappropriation of national treasury resources? , let you squander all the treasury resources?"
Tokugawa Teng was speechless when asked by Yan Qi and could not answer a word.
Because, Yan Qi's words hit the crux of this matter.
Although Cha Mingxun is old, his mind is still clear.
Understand a truth.
1. The elders of the Tokugawa shogunate and Cha Hyun-ki were definitely not friends.
2. The elders of the German and Japanese shogunate were not stupid.
With these two problems in front of us, it means that Tokugawa Teng Gang's assistance to Cha Xianji must be due to interests.
Che Mingxun saw this clearly.
The more Che Mingxun thought about it, the more he felt that the intrigue hidden behind it was beyond estimation.
Yan Qi took advantage of the victory and pursued: "Your Majesty, ministers, since Tokugawa Teng Gang can provide a large amount of materials to assist the Nanshan Commandery, it means that the elders behind the Tokugawa Shogunate have tacitly exchanged some benefits with the Nanshan Commandery. However, these benefits What is it? Hehe..."
Yan Qi winked at Tokugawa Tenggang: "Tell me, Mr. Tokugawa, what kind of deal did you make with Prince Nanshan?"
Tokugawa Teng just snorted and refused to answer.
Yan Qi looked at Cha Xianji: "Mr. Tokugawa refuses to tell you what benefits you have exchanged. Can the Prince of Nanshan tell you?"
Che Xianji's face turned red and he hesitated.
