"Now our country's granaries are empty, out of ten!"
"We can't even get out five hundred thousand taels of silver from the treasury."
"Because of your aggressive militarism over the years, so many good men from our country have been on the battlefield!"
“Even now, we can’t even pay out pensions to the fallen soldiers!”
"It's better for you. If you talk up and down, you'll either hit this or that! You should pay for it!"
"You are simply the scourge of our country for thousands of years!"
Zhang Mingyuan sprayed saliva, and the Ministry of Housing official behind him was speechless and quietly took a few steps away.
Good guy, you're really not afraid of him holding a grudge, are you?
Zhao Kang seemed to be unable to reply after being sprayed for a while, and then started to cheat directly.
"My division has no control over these matters! In short, my division does not agree to negotiate peace with Qi!"
"Whoever agrees to negotiate for peace is a traitor to our country! It's such a great opportunity to make peace with the enemy instead of making progress! Are you waiting for them to recover and continue to attack us? You idiots!"
Seeing Zhao Kang firing the map cannon, the old master knew that this was a signal from Zhao Kang.
He immediately turned to look at Her Majesty the Empress.
"Your Majesty! Zhao Kang is disrespecting your Majesty by insulting all the officials in this court hall!"
"I sincerely request your Majesty to punish Zhao Kang severely!"
Seeing this scene, Liu Yanran's lips curled up. This scene was exactly what she expected, and the old master and others did not let her down.
Then Zhao Kang cursed angrily and pointed at Yang Qianyun, "You old man! How dare you confuse the public with your lies? Did you accept Liu Yanran's benefits and come here to confuse His Majesty?"
The old master waved his sleeves and said, "You are spitting blood! You, Zhao Kang, are so tyrannical and rude, and you think that I, Da Qian Chaotang, are the one who speaks in your palace!"
Zhao Kang was furious, and before he could say anything, someone snorted coldly.
"Not bad! You
Zhao Kang is proud of His Majesty's trust in you and doesn't take us seriously at all!"
"Your Majesty, in my opinion, Zhao Kang's calamity far exceeds that of the empire. If Zhao Kang is allowed to stand in this court again, it will cause endless trouble for me, Your Majesty!"
"I beg your Majesty to punish Zhao Kang!"
As soon as the words fell, everyone knelt down and said, "I beg your Majesty to punish Zhao Kang!"
Zhao Kang's face turned red with anger, and he pointed at these people, his eyes full of anger and injustice.
"You! You! Your Majesty, these people are all traitors and traitors!"
"We must not negotiate for peace at this moment! Otherwise, the blood of the previous soldiers will be in vain!"
He cried out in grief and anger, with tears flashing in his eyes, just like Yue Fei in the Fengbo Pavilion.
Her Majesty the Empress still did not speak and seemed to be struggling.
"Gentlemen, the Imperial Master has always cared about the country, the country, the country, and the country, and he cannot be the traitor to the country that you call him."
After she said this, Taishi Yang still said, "Your Majesty, Zhao Kang is guilty of being arbitrary and authoritarian; second, he is militaristic!"
"The three sins are not obeying the ethical teachings!"
"The four sins are deceiving the superiors and concealing the truth from the inferiors!"
"Five sins for insulting the prince's children! These five sins are enough to kill him!"
While saying this, the old master also winked at Liu Yanran.
Old man, I've made the fire bright for you, but you don't come to pour oil on it. Isn't it a bit unreasonable?
Liu Yanran's heart skipped a beat. She had promised to restrain Zhao Kang, but now she wanted to kill Zhao Kang?
What if Zhao Kang could be killed?
Then it can be said that Qi State will have peace of mind from now on!
Thinking of this,
Liu Yanran made up her mind. Seeing that Zhao Kang seemed to be trying to defend something, she immediately said, "Your Majesty, the Empress! Qi can add an additional 500,000 taels to the original one and a half million taels in exchange for the peace of the two countries!"
She's here to add fuel to the fire!
"I beg your Majesty to punish Zhao Kang severely!" the old master shouted loudly!
The ministers followed closely behind!
At this moment, Her Majesty the Empress no longer hesitated and said directly, "National Preceptor Zhao Kang is arbitrary and tyrannical. With immediate effect, all his titles and positions will be abolished and he will be demoted to a commoner!"
A burst of desolate laughter rang out, Zhao Kang smiled and pointed at everyone in the hall, and there was even a trace of blood at the corner of his mouth.
"Good! Very good. I never thought that I, Zhao Kang, who devotes all his time to serving the country, would eventually end up like a rabbit, a dog, a dog, a bird, a bird, a bird, a bird, a bird, a bird, a rabbit, a dog, a bird, a bird, a bird, a bird, a rabbit, a dog, a bird, a bird, a bird, a rabbit, a dog, a bird, a bird, a bird, a rabbit, a dog, a bird, a bird, a rabbit, a dog, a bird, a bird, a rabbit, a dog, a bird, a bird, a rabbit, a dog, a dog, a bird, a bird, a rabbit, a dog, a bird, a rabbit, a dog, a bird, a bird, a bird, a rabbit, a dog, a bird, a bird, a dog, a bird, a rabbit, a dog, a dog, a bird, a bird, a rabbit, a dog, a dog, a bird, a bird, a dog, a bird, a dog, a bird, a dog, a bird, a man, a dog, a man, a dog, a man, a man, a man, a man, and a man, who, with his whole heart for the country, I, Zhao Kang, have devoted myself to serving the country!"
"You! The country of Qian is going to perish!"
Tsk tsk tsk, this is called acting!
The ministers looked at his frantic posture and harsh laughter, and they all admired him.
You still need to practice more when you wait for others, and see if they act like the real ones!
"That's it!"
He directly threw Zhao Kang away and sneered, "Since this court cannot accommodate me, Zhao Kang, then I will leave! Let's see what advantages you can take advantage of in the future!"
He just walked out without anyone stopping him. After he left, everyone cheered loudly, as happy as the New Year.
Her Majesty the Empress said at this time, "Well, let's dismiss the court. The two noble envoys please go to the side hall to rest."
Gongsun Yunxiu, who acted like an outsider from beginning to end, bowed slightly and left.
Liu Yanran was overjoyed. She didn't expect Her Majesty the Empress to directly kill Zhao Kang!
This was a surprise, even though Zhao Kang was not killed in the end.
But it is enough to demote him to a civilian status!
Qi will have no worries from now on!
In the side hall.
Princess Mingzhu took a sip of tea and felt relaxed. She looked at Gongsun Yunxiu opposite and chuckled, "Gongsun, did you ever expect such a situation?"
Gongsun Yunxiu glanced at her and sighed, "Your Highness the Princess should visit the people more often."
Liu Yanran raised her eyebrows and said, "Please give me some advice, Gongsun."
"People will always be deceived by superficial appearances, and subtle prescriptions can reveal people's hearts. That's all for now."
After Gongsun Yunxiu finished speaking, Her Majesty the Empress, who looked a little pale, walked in at the door of the side hall, and the two stood up to greet her.
"No need to be polite, just sit down."
After Her Majesty the Empress sat down, she looked at Liu Yanran, "Since Her Royal Highness the Princess promised previously, the State of Qian is willing to cease war and negotiate peace with the State of Qi."
"Thank you, Your Majesty the Empress." Liu Yanran said excitedly.
Xiao Linglong smiled slightly, "I hope that the two countries will always be friends in the future. I will feel relieved when Xuance comes to the throne in the future."
Liu Yanran was shocked, no wonder the empress had killed Zhao Kang so simply.
It must be that Zhao Kang has threatened the imperial rule. If a new king comes to the throne in the future, he will not be able to suppress Zhao Kang!
As expected of the Emperor of Qian Kingdom, he is so ruthless!
"I have already prepared the documents. If the Ninth Princess has absolutely no problems, you can take them away after reading them."
Liu Yanran took the document and glanced at it, nodded and stood up and said, "Thank you, Your Majesty. Yanran will stay here soon. When she returns home, she will send someone to deliver the silver immediately."
Xiao Linglong nodded and asked people to escort Liu Yanran out of the palace, and then looked at Gongsun Yunxiu.
"Master Gongsun, Qi State has now ceased war with Qian State and negotiated peace and reconciliation. What about your country?"
