The newly appointed Zuo Shilang of the Ministry of Rites instantly became the most handsome boy in the entire Yizheng Palace.
Qin Gang was also anxious and wanted to interrupt, but seemed to hesitate.
Seeing that someone dared to help the Ying thieves, Chu Qing frowned. Just as he was about to complain, Jiang Yuesheng reminded him in a low voice: "The left minister of the Ministry of Rites, who just took office not long ago, was recommended by General Qin Gang."
Chu Qing, who was about to start spraying, hesitated for a moment. Qin Gang still had to give him some face.
As far as he knew, after Qin Gang became the general of Zhuguo, no, since he entered the court as an official, he had never recommended anyone except his three sons.
I saw the left minister of the Ministry of Rites, who looked like he was not afraid of death, and said aggressively: "Only based on oral confession, how can we conclude that it is related to the seventh prince, and how can we conclude that the assassination case is related to Yingdao? I have also been to the East China Sea and heard about it. Regarding the incident on Yingdao, pirates on Yingdao are indeed rampant. Even the officials of Yingguo dare not arrest them. These pirates crossed the sea and came to Dachang and Changjing. Who can’t believe it? They have been captured and framed against Yingdao. The seventh prince of the country framed the Ying government, how can it be untrustworthy?"
Chu Qing's face darkened.
I'm sure, this guy must have received money from the thieves.
If the other party really went to the East China Sea, it is impossible not to know that the imperial power has been highly concentrated on Yingdao. It is obvious that the deer is a horse, and the piracy thing is even more nonsense. Nine of the ten pirate ships are officially built by the Ying thieves. Yes, most of those plundering ships were sent by the Yingdao government.
He was just a Zuo Shilang. Chu Qing didn't even bother to show up personally. He turned around and looked at a group of friends who were eager to try. Just as he was about to snap his fingers, the newly appointed Zuo Shilang of the Ministry of Civil Affairs had already started to attack Uchigami Shichiro without any limits. Flattery.
"Your Majesty, Mr. Chu Qingchu, the commander of the Qianqi Camp, must have misunderstood. I have heard a lot about the pirates in the Ying Kingdom. They are indeed entrenched in the coastal areas of your country, burning, killing and plundering. The government has no choice but to do so. We are not strong enough, these abominable thieves came to our Chang Dynasty and committed unforgivable crimes. Every injustice has its own debtor, and I, Dachang, will definitely not make a judgment lightly. I hope your envoys will not worry."
It is no longer just flattering, but also out of touch. These words can almost be said to represent the imperial court, and are obviously not what a left minister of the Ministry of Rites should say.
"Yes, yes, yes."
Qilang Uchishen beamed with joy. He didn't expect that someone would dare to speak for him under Chu Qing's power. He nodded repeatedly: "We regard Dachang Dynasty as our superior country and do not dare to disobey. How could we do such a thing? It’s a misunderstanding, it must be a misunderstanding.”
"Well, that's right. I regard Dachang as my superior country. Those pirates have nothing to do with your government. Your government is unable to arrest them. The people of the East China Sea all know this."
"Yes, yes, yes, yes."
"Okay." I saw the left minister of the Ministry of Rites suddenly looked at the emperor and gave a heavy salute: "Your Majesty, I think that our Dachang is a superior country, no different from the suzerain country. When neighboring countries are in trouble, we must help. Since The pirates of the Ying Kingdom have been causing trouble for a long time, and the Ying Kingdom is unable to arrest them. Why not, in order to show my great ambition, I should send brave and capable troops to station on the coastline of the Ying Kingdom to help the Ying Kingdom eliminate those pirates who are causing trouble in all directions."
The fourth child was confused, and so were the officials.
Everyone looked at the newly appointed Minister of Rites, Zuo Shilang, with incomprehensible expressions.
Uchigami Shichiro's face suddenly turned completely white, his face was bloodless, and he subconsciously shouted: "No, no, no, no, we don't need it, we don't need you..."
"What?" The Zuo Shilang's face changed at every turn, with a stern look on his face: "Seventh Prince, you just said that pirates in your country are rampant and are causing harm to the coastal areas, and you also said that you regard Dachang as your superior country. In this case, I Dachang sends troops to help your country eliminate pirates, why not!"
"I...we ourselves...we can destroy the pirates ourselves!"
"You can do that?" The left minister of the Ministry of Rites suddenly yelled: "Okay, Uchigami Shichiro, how dare you play with me, the king and his ministers, have you ever taken me, Dachang, seriously? You are an envoy, but you dare to play with us." , just to play with all the people and troops of Dachang Dynasty, you want to start a war, you want to start a war, you want to start a war, yes or no!"
The civil and military officials all took a breath of cold air when they saw Zuo Shilang coming directly in front of Uchigami Shichiro, his eyes like daggers: "If you want to start a war, I, Dachang Dynasty, will fight and tell the people of the world that you, the messenger, In the palace of political affairs, in front of the emperor, you are playing tricks on me, Dachang!"
"No, no, that's not what I meant, I..." Uchigami Shichiro was completely panicked: "That's not what I meant!"
"No, okay, then I, Dachang, will send warships to station on the coastline of your country to help you destroy the pirates and give your country a peaceful future."
"No, not good!"
"Then you are just teasing me, Dachang. You want to start a war, and the Ying Kingdom wants to start a war!"
"No…"
"No, no!" The left minister of the Ministry of Etiquette's aura was extremely shocking, his facial features were distorted, and his face was full of ferocious color: "Is there any truth in your mouth? Also, if you play tricks on me, Dachang, then the assassin The matter must be related to you and your Yingguo government!"
Uchigami Shichiro's forehead was covered with sweat, and he kept waving his hands: "No, it doesn't matter, it doesn't matter."
"Okay, since it has nothing to do with it, what about the pirates?"
"Sea...pirates..."
"Those pirates are from Ying Dynasty. Do you admit it or not? If you admit it, you are from Ying Dynasty. In my Dachang capital, you dared to assassinate noble Tianhuang, dared to assassinate the commander of Qianqi Camp, and burned down so many houses. You have frightened so many people, how do you say it, how do you compensate them? Either I, Dachang, will be stationed on the coast of your country, an eye for an eye, blood for blood, and kill those pirates, or you, your country, will destroy those pirates yourself. , after killing the pirates, bring the heads to me, and also compensate me for the loss of Dachang. In the assassination alone, I, Changjing, lost no less than a million dollars. I don’t know how many people can’t sleep at night, and I don’t know how many adults are tossing and turning, all because of you Ying people. , tell me, do you want to send a human head and compensate me with millions of dollars, or do we, Dachang, send a large army to the coastal areas of your country to capture the thieves, or... you, Shichiro Uchigami, are playing tricks on me, Dachang, above the main hall, and want to... Let’s start the war!”
Shichiro Uchigami was dumbfounded. His face was sprayed with saliva by the left minister of the Ministry of Rites, as if he was frightened.
The left minister of the Ministry of Rites suddenly sneered: "Start a war?"
"No, I don't dare."
"garrison?"
"No, no!"
"Is that just a loss of money?"
"this…"
"Start the war!"
Uchigami Shichiro gritted his teeth and almost roared: "Pay up!"
After the words of "compensation" were spoken, the expression of the left minister of the Ministry of Etiquette returned to calmness. He gave a slight salute to the fourth child, and then slowly returned to the class as if nothing happened.
Chu Qing grinned, swallowed, and turned his head to look at Qianqiying.
"This guy...no, this big brother, where did he come from?"
Jiang Yuesheng was also shocked, and subconsciously replied: "The teacher at Weijiang Hanshan is a great Confucian named Liao...yes, Liao Wenzhi."
