"What General Yu said is exactly what we have said. By accepting the betrothal princess, we are giving them a long period of time to recuperate and replenish the depleted national strength. When the Five Kingdoms Alliance attacked Yan, the five countries traveled a long distance and invaded our borders.
We have been facing each other with a strong defense. Under the depletion, we are much smaller and have almost no domestic losses. The casualties are only a hundred people, which is basically negligible. Yan is strong and Lu is weak. It is a good time to send out troops to destroy us in one go. We must not do it because of this
Princess, please give the Nalu Kingdom some time to survive. Such a wolf country will definitely not keep its peace. When they recover, they will definitely attack again..."

Regardless of the merits, he would punish them all as the crime of roaring at the court, and punish them with a salary and a reduction in rank. In any case, no one except the emperor could take advantage.
The ministers who were less impulsive and more sensitive, after being excited for a while, realized that something was wrong in the Jinluan Palace today, as if someone was missing. It was both lively and solemn, and they habitually glanced at the aloof Zhang with the tips of their eyes.
