The emperor had not come to the Three Princes' Mansion for a long time to discuss with Shen Jue the conflicting floods and droughts that were bothering him at the same time.
If it weren't for this letter of report from the third prince, he would have almost forgotten about his surveillance of his third brother.
Originally, I wanted to put aside the third brother's private handling of Qiuniang's matter for the time being, and first figure out how to solve the current problems of the people.
Shen Jun's suggestion is good, but Jin State does not have such a large start-up capital to build water diversion facilities that require huge manpower and material resources.
The emperor mentioned this matter several times in the court, but was rejected by the ministers. The reason was that even if it can be repaired, can it really be done in this way?
No one wants to be the first to eat crabs, but everyone wants to have the benefits that the first person to eat crabs enjoys.
"The national treasury is no longer full." Xiao Xun, the national preceptor, said, "There are other ways to resolve the disaster."
"Human sacrifice." Xiao Xun tapped her fingertips and stared at the dark night for a long time.
If he were not at his wits end, Jin Li would definitely disagree with the approach of the national preceptor Xiao Xun.
"The living person is..." Jin Li only had one thought now, and that was to finish the sacrifice quickly, so that those disasters would disappear quickly, and he would be able to live a peaceful and peaceful life as an emperor.
Xiao Xun said solemnly: "A wise man."
As the saying goes, an extremely smart person.
Suddenly, the emperor thought of Shen Ji. That man's thoughts were very innovative, and compared with the imperial master, his intelligence was not far behind.
Shen Jun was originally a person abandoned by the Shen Kingdom. It should be nothing if used as a sacrifice. The big deal is that it will bring more benefits to the Shen Kingdom.
However, the letter sent by Jin Li was quickly answered. This time, in front of the powerful Jin State, the weak Shen State refused.
Shen Guo replied: No.
He also said that if Jin really did this, it could be that Jin was determined to go to war with his own country.
On the surface, Jin State is still a great power in the eyes of other countries, but it is no longer what it looks like. Naturally, Jin State cannot be like the way it used force to force Shen State to send them protons, and then sacrifice Shen Yu.
Why did Shen Guo try so hard to protect Shen Zui, who had already been abandoned? Not because of the years of war, almost all the royal men of Shen State died. The emperor of Shen State was also too weak due to health problems, and he only had children of a few years old.
Originally, it was said that the queen took the prince who was a few years old to ascend the throne, but the harem was not allowed to interfere in politics. This was a principle that Emperor Shen, who had been taking medicine and seeking medical treatment, could not give up.
Suddenly I heard that Shen Jui was still alive. If I couldn't protect myself, what else could I do?
The Emperor of Shen State, Shen Han, as the sixth son of the late emperor, had already made it clear in the letter. Their Shen State had sent people to ask Shen Yu to return to Shen State and become the third prince.
Drunk and unable to move.
The Imperial Master on the side saw what the letter meant and was so angry that he had to be blamed by his sister when he returned home.
It turned out that the national preceptor Xiao Xun was actually Xiao Youwu's elder brother. Who was Xiao Youwu? The concubine who was talkative and drunken, and was almost punished by the third prince. Not only that, she was also invited by the third prince. 'Leaving the Three Princes' Mansion.
In Xiao Xun's eyes, he wanted revenge for the shame of driving his sister back home. Therefore, he deliberately brought up the wise man sacrifice. He also knew who came up with such a clever approach to repairing water diversion facilities. suggestion.
The best way to retaliate against a person is to destroy the person he cares about.
However, I didn't expect that Shen Jun would have such a big background, and he was no longer a hostage to be bullied.
