These words are powerful.

Because the core of the argument has shifted.

After disbanding the harem, the ministers wanted to protect the interests of the big family. However, these words of the Tai Tu led the focus of the debate to whether to "save money from the royal family" or to plunder the common people in order to raise military expenses.

Before the other Xianbei rude men could react, King Xianyang immediately screamed inwardly. Even though he had imagined a hundred tricks that the emperor brother might use, he never imagined that it would start like this. Moreover, the Southern Expedition was still far away.

Waiting for such a long time, the emperor brother agreed, was a far-sighted and prepared plan, but from another perspective, it was insidious and cunning, trying to force the palace in disguise!!

Unexpectedly, it was not the officials who attacked first, but him himself!

Sweat appeared on King Xianyang's forehead, and he almost fully understood the emperor's intention.

King Dongyang first shouted: "Master, what are you talking about? Our Northern Kingdom has a full treasury and sufficient food and money. Naturally, the royal family should have the royal style and the majesty of the emperor. Even if it is frugal, it should be the frugality of the subjects. How can you allow your majesty to go down?

frugal?"

Another minister also refuted: "The reason why the emperor is the emperor is because of the majesty of the royal family!!! Now, even if we have some difficulties, how can we ask your majesty to be frugal? Isn't this a great disrespect for a minister? No.

,Absolutely not!!!"

King Xianyang breathed a sigh of relief, this was exactly what he wanted to refute in his heart.

Tuoba Hong smiled but did not answer, and turned his eyes to the Taifu. The Taifu understood and cupped his hands: "Your Majesty, your words are wrong. War consumes most of a country's manpower and material resources. In the past twenty years, the Northern Kingdom has indeed gathered a large number of people.

Wealth, treasures from all over the world, but after years of wars in recent years, the losses are also very large. In order to sufficient military expenditures, only

Are they willing to continue apportioning money to the people? The harem has a large number of people and consumes a lot of money. Not to mention other things, the monthly firewood, rice, oil and salt alone is an extremely huge expense. The money for the concubines and palace ladies costs tens of thousands.

Silver. If this huge expense can be saved, how much less should be allocated to the people?"

King Dongyang was furious: "What are you talking about, Grand Master? Do you think you have to lose the power of the royal family just for a few small coins? Do you want your majesty to suffer the same shabby life as ordinary people? What are you talking about? Where can there be a big country?"
