Chapter 213 Emperor's Sword

"I am convinced and willing to receive the punishment."

Zhang Biwu bowed and said.

Li Chen's eyes swept across the silent Hall of Supreme Harmony, focused on Zhao Xuanji for a moment, and said indifferently:

"The palace has carefully considered the case that the Shan Dynasty requested the Qin Dynasty to send troops, and there are two disadvantages."

"First, now that the natural disasters in the Qin Dynasty have been going on for years, neither the people nor the court can withstand a high-intensity war."

"Secondly, the national treasury is empty, and the soldiers and horses in various places are already barely able to maintain military pay. Once the soldiers move, countless real gold and silver will pass by like flowing water. When they go to the battlefield, people will die. It seems unwise to use my good boy from Daqin to fight for other countries."

His eyes fell on Zhang Biwu again, and Li Chen said indifferently: "Mr. Zhang, you just wanted to say the objection, but are these two points?"

Zhang Biwu said with a slight face and said firmly: "Your Highness is quick-witted and has already thought about it carefully, so I am too concerned."

He ignored Zhang Biwu's words of holding a gun and a stick, and Li Chen said lightly: "But everything has two sides. There are two disadvantages and two advantages."

"First, over the years, the Great Qin has been weak, especially since the Yumen Pass tragedy, the enemy on the border, led by the Liao Kingdom, seems to have regarded the Great Qin as a soft persimmon. After that, the Great Qin retaliated for more than ten times, although it also killed some enemies, it was strategically failed, which led to the ridicule of the enemy and the people of the country were ashamed of it."

"Sending troops to Korea to fight against Japanese pirates can not only shock foreign enemies, but also boost national confidence with force. It can also gain the gratitude of the Korean country, so as to demonstrate that our great Qin Dynasty's power is not reduced three hundred years ago."

"Secondly, the Korean North has promised that when the Qin army moves, all the logistics and expenditures will be borne by the Korean North, and the casualties will be paid according to double standards. In this way, the pressure on the treasury will be reduced suddenly and there will be no worries."

Seeing that Li Chen had blocked everything he wanted to say while asking and answering questions, Zhang Biwu became anxious on the spot.

But this time he learned his lesson.

He held back his breath and waited honestly for Li Chen to finish speaking. The Palace of Supreme Harmony was a little quiet for a moment before Zhang Biwu spoke, "Your Highness, it's not appropriate!"

Li Chen looked at Zhang Biwu coldly and said impatiently: "You are the one who says I am quick and considerate, and you are the one who says I am inappropriate. Why? You have the final say in the world? You have the final say in the right or wrong!?"

Zhang Biwu's background is slightly different from others. Although he also passed the imperial examination, his family was originally a scholarly family. His three generations of ancestors and grandchildren were all officials in the court, and it can be said that he was a standard three generations of official positions.

So his career has been very smooth.

Therefore, his ups and downs in the past few decades have mostly been on the paved road. When did he rub against the wall with his face in front of him?

I felt the anger in my heart became more and more intense. Zhang Biwu gritted his teeth and said, "Can you not allow me to speak?"

"So, anyone can speak in this Hall of Supreme Harmony."

Li Chen sneered and said, "But nonsense, I don't like to listen to it."

After saying that, he didn't even see that Zhang Biwu's face was almost ashen, and raised his hand and said, "Chen Tong, invite the Great Liang Dragon Bird to me!"

Outside the Hall of Supreme Harmony, Chen Tong, deputy commander of the East Factory Jinyiwei, respectfully held a sword box that had been made overnight, bowed his head and walked in from the door of the hall.

He looked straight and walked to Li Chen very quickly, knelt down on his knees, and raised the sword box high above his head.

Li Chen opened the sword box, held the sword body of the Daliang Long Bird, and slapped it with his back hand. The Daliang Long Bird was standing on the dragon court with his sword.

Li Chen's eyes were majestic, and he swept across the hall of the Supreme Hall and said coldly: "In front of this Emperor's Sword, let's talk about your so-called truth to me?"
