Chapter 302 Snowy Night's Compromise
"Who is it!! Who is it?!"
It was rare for the famously gentle Emperor Xue Ye to be so angry in court.
Ning Fengzhi in the hall lowered his head and said nothing, anyway, it had nothing to do with him, and it wasn't his son who died, besides, he had many sons, so the death of one or two would not delay the matter.
And Mengshenji and Ning Fengzhi are in the same state, anyway, he is a Contra, even if Xue Ye is very angry, it is impossible to spread it on her. Don't forget, he still has the head of Tiandou Royal Academy hanging on his body. He said bluntly that a large part of the high-level soul masters owned by Ru Tiandou are his disciples. Although he does not mix in the court, his influence in the court is not small at all.
Who did this?No one can say for sure, logically speaking, it is impossible for Xing Luo to do such a thing, unless Dai Zongfu is really determined to fight Tiandou to the death, but this possibility is not ruled out, in case He, Dai Zongfu, was really angry with his superiors for making such a stupid decision to make you, Xue Ye, pay me for one of my sons with one son?Who made it clear.
Xue Ye cursed for a long time in the court hall, the temper in his chest finally dissipated a little, he asked wearily.
"Then how is Dai Mubai now?"
As soon as these words came out, it was like stabbing a hornet's nest, Ning Fengzhi directly led everyone in the court hall to kneel down, and Meng Shenji hurriedly came out to admonish him.
"Your Majesty, absolutely not, if you kill Dai Mubai to vent your anger, then the conflict between us and Xing Luo will be completely incomprehensible, and there must be someone obstructing this matter, just to provoke disputes between the two countries."
Xue Ye's teeth itched with hatred for a moment, could it be that he didn't know that someone was obstructing this matter?But when he asked about Dai Mubai's situation, he didn't want to kill him to vent his anger, he just wanted to hand Dai Mubai into Xing Luo's hands earlier, so as not to cause accidents in his own hands, and the situation would really be irreparable by then.
But the truth is this, but as a courtier of Tiandou, you didn't care about your master's mood for the first time, and you actually cared about the life and death of the prince of another country. Is this what the courtier did?
"Send someone to guard Dai Mubai strictly, and don't let someone with a heart take advantage of it."
Hearing Xue Ye's order, many ministers finally breathed a sigh of relief. More than half of Tiandou's top management are endorsers secretly supported by various big forces, and these big forces don't want to start a war with Xingluo at all. The order they received today was very simple, to put pressure on Xue Ye to let him end this ridiculous war as soon as possible.
Absurd?Naturally absurd, in the eyes of the big forces of Tiandou, this war is meaningless, and they can't get any benefit from it, they just waste their own strength in vain to make up for Xue Ye's fault, you said that such a big mission disappeared in front of you Under your nose, you didn't notice any movement?What happened to making Dai Zongfu lose his temper?
Seeing Xue Ye in the hall panting heavily to adjust his mood, everyone in the hall began to secretly look at each other, no one wanted to touch the emperor's brow at this time, but they each received death from their own families. Order, there is no other way, if they don't do this, they can't make it worse.
The court suddenly fell into silence, and some people even cast their begging eyes on Ning Fengzhi, but this old guy is just like his style in the court recently, if he can't talk, he won't talk, if he wants to talk, he will say that he doesn't know, Just like a big bastard.
In the end, the helpless Tiandou Finance Minister was honored to get this drudgery. He reluctantly walked out from the crowd, knelt down on the ground and said worriedly.
"Your Majesty, if our treasury continues to be consumed like this, it may cause a deficit."
Xue Ye also had to pay attention to it now, the emergency of the national treasury was the top priority that the emperor needed to pay attention to no matter which dynasty it was placed in, but Xue Ye didn't believe it.
"Our national treasury has not had a large expenditure for nearly a hundred years. How could it not be able to support such a petty war?"
Playing around?The Minister of Finance is about to cry, are you making a fuss?The 30 troops of the alliance, our own [-] troops at the border, plus the various big forces paying for our support, you really don’t know what’s going on at your own house?
"Your Majesty, have you forgotten? Since you came to the throne, you have introduced many new policies to increase the prosperity of domestic soul masters, so the national treasury has been in a state of negative growth. In addition, the expenditure of the army has been increasing in recent years. Our treasury Although there is still some money, we must keep some to deal with emergencies."
In fact, the biggest expense of the national treasury is the soul masters. Whether it is the support for various colleges in the country or the recruitment of talented soul masters, it is a huge expense. To put it bluntly, the money spent on soul masters every year is a huge amount. Astronomical figures.
More importantly, in the Douluo Continent, most of the talented soul masters belong to the family, and only a very small number of soul masters emerging from the common people have the opportunity to stand out, so in fact most of the money falls to these families The Zongmen pocketed it, and even many families made false reports for this huge sum of money.
Xue Ye also thought of this. This incident should have been one of his greatest achievements in office. He was the one who proposed this policy in the first place. The increase in the number of soul masters made up for the difference between the Heaven Dou Empire and the Xingluo Empire. The lack of military capabilities, but did not expect this gap to be made up with money.
"You guys come up with ideas."
This is not the first time that this kind of court situation has appeared, Xue Ye knew in her heart that they must have some kind of plan to be united like this.
"This battle...how to go, you guys talk about it."
Being able to say such things, in fact, Xue Ye has already compromised with many forces of Tiandou. After all, these forces are the real pillars of Tiandou. Once they lose their power, it will be an unprecedented blow to Xue Ye.
And Xue Ye's concession finally made many ministers heave a sigh of relief. After all, he didn't want to act too tough and leave a bad impression on the face of the Tiandou Empire. No one was in trouble yet. Are you right?
Mengshenji knew that it was time to speak out by herself at this time, and even if things had come to this point, she should show some affection for this old man who had just experienced the pain of bereavement.
"We can send Dai Mubai back to Xingluo's territory first, it can be regarded as our Tiandou giving Xingluo a clear attitude, if Xingluo wants to continue fighting"
Speaking of this, Mengshenji glanced at Xue Ye from the corner of his eye before continuing to add.
"Then I'm afraid we can only seek help from the Spirit Hall."
"He won't."
Xue Ye's voice was low and hoarse.
"I'm very familiar with that guy Dai Zongfu. He won't let Wuhundian have an opportunity at this time. Just do as you said."
One is the emperor of the Heaven Dou Empire and the other is the emperor of the Star Luo Empire. Although the two have never met each other, they actually know each other's temperament very well. The situation in the Soul Palace is the same. The reason Xue Ye has been in a negative state from the beginning to the end of this war is because of this tacit understanding.He was deliberately letting Dai Zongfu vent his inner anger.
Now that he has also lost a son, I believe that Dai Zongfu will also make concessions on the same standpoint, at least retreat is certain, but from now on the relationship between the two countries may no longer be as tacit as before.
Xue Ye closed his eyes in some pain. Although he didn't like Xue Beng very much, it was a kind of protection for him. After all, he had his own blood flowing through him. He used to have four sons. Now there is only one left, but fortunately, the remaining one is a top existence in terms of culture, Taoism and martial arts.
"Let's do this, send Dai Mubai back to Xingluo as soon as possible, by the way, send more people to the East Palace."
