On the second day, in the government hall, as the fourth man said, after the contents of the Liang Rong War were made public, many civil servants began to kidnap people on the moral high ground.
Among them, the one who cheered the most was Di Zhengping, the right minister of the Ministry of Punishment.
Above the court, even many generals were unwilling to fight, let alone civil servants, even Huang Laosi.
Now that the national treasury is empty, it's not that we can't fight, but the price is too high.
The consequences of going to war are completely different in the two situations: a full treasury and an empty treasury.
If the treasury is full and victory is achieved, it is assumed that 10,000 people will die in battle.
If the treasury is empty and victory is achieved, the number of casualties will increase exponentially, to 50,000, or even 100,000.
This is war, and its essence is to fight for money. The so-called Qin Shihuang fights for money, which is what it means. It is a melee between multiple countries. Qin has been fighting for so many years. What is it fighting for? Isn’t it money? That’s why there is the saying that Qin Shihuang fights for money.
Food and grass dispatch, weapons, armor, war horses, rewards, pensions, etc. are all money.
If there is not enough money, morale and military morale will also be affected.
Di Zhengping's point of view is to hand over Chu Qing, the commander of the Thousand Cavalry Camp, to avoid starting a national war. He also cited many examples and allusions, meaning that Chu Qing would go there first and lie there for a few years, and when the Chang Dynasty became strong, the army would After leaving the seclusion, annihilating Liangrong, and rescuing Chu Qing, he could also give Chu Qing a bad breath. This is what Su Wu did back then. Chu Qing can also go to the grassland to herd sheep. He is in Liangrong and his heart is happy, and he will definitely His name will remain in history.
Of course, this is based on the premise that Chu Qing is alive.
At this time, these civil servants no longer care whether the emperor is pro-army or not. It's not that they don't take your fourth brother seriously, but it's just that we really can't fight now.
Even many generals shook their heads and sighed.
The Chang Dynasty is no longer what it used to be. A few decades ago, people in the world were still brave enough. When people from Liang were mentioned, they would call them thieves. From the courtiers to the common people, they wished that the army would come out immediately to clear the grassland.
Looking now, Chang Chao, who founded the country by force, actually wants to agree to Liang Zei's conditions and hand over the court ministers.
Seeing that more and more civil servants were supporting Di Zhengping, Huang Laosi's face was full of helplessness.
If he pays it, he will definitely not pay it.
Although I told Chu Qing yesterday that some civil servants would take the opportunity to cause trouble, I really didn't expect that half of the civil servants were weaklings.
"Your Majesty, Mr. Chu Qing, the commander-in-chief of Qianqi Camp, is a man who understands the general situation. He sacrifices himself for the sake of the country. Even if I don't mention it, I think Mr. Chu will be willing to go to Liang to neutralize the weapons of the two countries."
This is a civil servant. I am a moral gentleman, and you must be too. Therefore, if I ask you to die, you must voluntarily die. If you don't go, you are a villain and you have no idea of the overall situation.
As soon as Di Zhengping finished speaking, Qiu Wanshan walked out and sighed deeply.
"My lord, I second the proposal."
Everyone looked at Qiu Wanshan without any unnecessary expressions, waiting for the next step.
Because the courtiers know very well that Qiu Wanshan likes to do this, and everyone is used to it.
Di Zhengping also had a normal expression. He knew that if he wanted to rectify Chu Qing in the court, he had to defeat Qiu Wanshan first.
Last time, he was unprepared. This time, he was full of confidence and wanted to have a good fight with Qiu Wanshan.
As expected, Qiu Wanshan's acting skills had returned to his original state, and his expression did not show that he was trying to help Chu Qing at all.
"It's all because of the Wu Ri incident. Commander Chu... was too motivated."
Qiu Wanshan looked at Di Zhengping and other civil servants, shook his head again and sighed: "I knew I would make Liang Ren so angry. During the martial arts performance, if I said anything to make the guards suffer the humiliation, wouldn't it be just like being shot by a wooden arrow? , wasn't it just trampled by the war horses of the three kingdoms' envoys? So what if tens of thousands of people were watching? Hey, why did Mr. Chu act so impulsively? He just wanted to save face for the country, but actually beat up the envoys of other countries. , Hey, every drink and every peck is caused by cause and effect, since it was him who caused the trouble, Mr. Chu has to bear it alone."
In the political hall, it was eerily quiet.
Many civil servants' faces turned red.
Huang Laosi's face was also a little red, but only for a moment.
No one mentioned that Chu Qing should die, not even one. Even Di Zhengping stood there silently, not knowing what to say for a moment.
There is really nothing to say. Di Zhengping can't be stupid and agree with Qiu Wanshan, saying that Chu Qing is a bitch. Just watch the imperial army being insulted and that's it. It has nothing to do with him anyway. Just stand by and look at it coldly. It's the country that is embarrassed, not you. Chu Qing, what are you doing?
But if you don’t agree, there’s nothing you can do about it.
What are you talking about, saying that Chu Qing is about to collapse the building, and our Dachang Dynasty has no chance of winning at all. Fortunately, Chu Qing stepped forward to avenge his shame and beat the other envoys to pieces, how happy is that?
Lao Qiu's meaning was already very straightforward.
It's nothing, it's you. The players from your own country were beaten and insulted, and they couldn't even let out a single fart. It was only Chu Qing who stood up and regained all our face in front of the people.
As a result, in order to save face for us, Chu Qing was resented by Liang Ren, and you want to hand it over to Chu Qing. As for your face, let me ask you, where do you put your face?
Qiu Wanshan always kills his heart in one step.
Looking at Di Zhengping, Qiu Wanshan still kept sighing.
"What Mr. Di said is true. Chu Qing should be handed over. Even if Chu Qing disagrees, he can't help it. He said that the people will definitely support Mr. Di. After the court, I will go to Bei City and go to the gathering place of the people. Earth, tell them that Master Di is a role model for our generation. He serves the country and the people. He has a good relationship with Commander Chu in private. However, for the sake of the country, you have to hand over your friend Chu Qing, Master Chu. Think about it, the people will definitely understand. Support Mr. Di.”
After finishing the last blow, Qiu Wanshan returned to the class.
Di Zhengping was completely dumbfounded.
He suddenly thought of a terrible consequence.
If this matter really spreads out, he, Di Zhengping... will be stabbed in the back by the people of the whole capital for the rest of his life. I'm afraid he won't be able to serve as an official for long.
He was present on the day of the martial arts performance. Tens of thousands of people saw the Three Kingdoms envoys being beaten into the shape of a bear, and their voices were hoarse with cheers.
Once the people knew about the War Letter and that the Liangrong people hated Chu Qing because of the incident of Wu Ri, he, Di Zhengping, strongly advocated handing Chu Qing over...
The thing that sent chills down Di Zhengping's back the most was what Qiu Wanshan said just now, saying that Di Zhengping and Chu Qing had a good personal relationship.
Listen clearly, it is said that he, Di Zhengping, "killed his relatives for justice" and handed over Chu Qing, who had a good relationship with him.
But if you think about it more deeply, isn't this just selling out to friends for "honor"?
It's enough to hand it over to the "hero" in the eyes of the common people in Yanwu Day. The person who advocated handing it over was Chu Qing's "good friend" Di Zhengping. I guess not to mention the people scolding him, in the future even the scholars may have to scold him. Who would dare to fight with him? Made friends?
It has to be said that some people just don’t have long memories.
It was clear that Qiu Wanshan had been KO'd before, but he had to show off, and he was talking about Di Zhengping.
Moreover, when Qiu Wanshan defeated Di Zhengping by KO, he was just an A-level scorer, so he simply took the right minister of the Ministry of Punishment seriously.
Di Zhengping panicked and turned around, only to see that at some point, the civil servants who had just seconded him quietly retreated back to the class.
Di Zhengping suddenly looked at Qiu Wanshan.
Lao Qiu smiled slightly and nodded vigorously.
The meaning of this smile is very obvious, Mr. Di, just keep your heart in your stomach. After a while, it will fade away. I guarantee that the whole capital will know about it, so you can just wait to be drowned in saliva.
