Empress of Erzhoumu: This plot is wrong!

Chapter 78 Slaughtering a Big Dragon!
April.

Weiguo, Taishi Bureau.

The prime minister's uncle Wei hurried in, and heard his voice before seeing him.

"Old Xu, disaster happened!"

Wen Renxu is sitting beside the chessboard, playing chess against himself.

Tai Shuwei walked in and grabbed his hand.

"You still have the mind to play chess, I, David, may face catastrophe!"

Wen Renxu stared at the chessboard in front of him, and said slowly.

"Drought in the Western Zhou Dynasty has occurred, and the price of grain has doubled, or even several times.

The state of Chu has cut off the mutual market with David, no one will buy leno, and no grain of grain will be allowed to enter the guard. "

"Looks like you already know."

A memorial slipped from Tai Shuwei's hands, and he sat down opposite Wen Renxu.

"What you don't know is that the Hong River broke its embankment, and the floods affected Fengzhou, Yunzhou, and Yanzhou.

Millions of people are waiting for relief food.

The army of Chu State is assembled, intending to invade our border.

There is not enough food and grass in the east, so I ask the court to allocate food.

The Western Zhou Dynasty was too busy to take care of itself and banned the grain trade. "

Wen Renxu was stunned for a moment, then pushed Tai Shuwei's hand away.

"It's a huge dragon!"

Tai Shuwei turned his head to look at the chessboard, the white piece swallowed the black piece 46 pieces and the hundred-eyed dragon.

Wen Renxu picked up the sunspots on the chessboard one by one and put them into the chess box.

Through the news sent back by the spies, he already knew where the point that he had been wondering about was the time of day.

There was a severe drought in the Western Zhou Dynasty, and there was no rain for several months. The disaster affected almost half of the Western Zhou Dynasty.

People can't get enough to eat, will they still sell food?
Even if he wants to sell, there is no food to sell.

Now he finally knew why Li Yunsheng stockpiled food in advance, this is simply a prophet.

Unfortunately, it is too late to know this now.

It should be said that it was too late from the beginning.

Uncle Wei was in a hurry and overturned the chessboard.

"I can't wait to play chess!"

Cough cough--

Wen Renxu coughed violently, his face flushed red.

Tai Shuwei's tone was a little weaker, and he quickly stepped forward and patted Wen Renxu's back lightly.

"Blame me, I just made my voice louder.

But I, I'm really in a hurry. "

In this day, he has received so much bad news, can he not be in a hurry.

After a while, Wen Renxu calmed down a little, and he looked up at Tai Shuwei in front of him.

"When Wei and Chu traded each other, I said that Li Yunsheng must have evil intentions.

When the state of Chu was hoarding grain, I also had an audience with His Majesty, and He said that everything was under control.

Now, the arrangement is over, what's the use of you coming to me? "

"Who would have known that there would be such a large area of ​​drought in the Western Zhou Dynasty?"

"Li Yunsheng knows."

Wen Renxu's tone was indifferent, but he made Taishu Wei lose his temper.

"Then we can't sit still and wait for death, can we?"

"Alas..." Wen Renxu sighed and stood up, "Let's go, you and I will go see His Majesty."

"Hey, hey!" Grand Uncle Wei hurriedly pulled him back, "What do you say when you see His Majesty?"

This matter was too big, and he just didn't think of a way to deal with it, so he hurried to discuss it with this sick man.

His Majesty asked, he couldn't be helpless.

Wen Renxu put on his shoes and straightened his robe.

"There is only one solution to this matter."

Tai Shuwei immediately regained his spirits.

"Why?"

"Before you run out of food in the east, break through the border of Chu State."

After finishing speaking, Wen Renxu went straight out.

This is indeed the only solution right now, Tai Shuwei realized it and immediately followed.

Royal Palace.

The eunuch bowed to report.

"Your Majesty, Prime Minister Taishuwei and Taishi Lingwen Renxu request an audience."

Wei Wenyu beckoned.

"Let them in."

"Yes."

Not long after, Grand Uncle Wei and Wen Renxu walked into the hall together.

"Minister Uncle Wei, see Your Majesty."

"Your Majesty has heard the praises from others."

Wei Wenyu raised his hand.

"The two lovers entered the palace together, what's the matter?"

Grain prices skyrocketed in the Western Zhou Dynasty, and Chu State cut off the mutual market. Recently, he has been under great pressure.

There is no need to think about joining forces with the Western Zhou Dynasty to conquer Chu State.

Just now, he was thinking about how to increase the revenue of the treasury, when the two right-hand men entered the palace together.

Tai Shuwei handed over a memorial.

"The army of Chu State has assembled and intends to invade our border.

There is not enough food and grass in the east, so I ask the court to allocate food. "

"How much food does the capital have left?"

"350 million stone."

Food is a big problem right now, so Tai Shuwei knows how much food is left.

Wei Wenyu thought for a while.

"Then first allocate 200 million stones to the East Territory."

Now that the matter has come to this point, he also knows that he has underestimated the two juniors of Chu State.

A Chu State Empress, a Chu State Chancellor, the combined age of the two is not as old as myself.

As a result, David was brought into such a great predicament.

Tai Shuwei hesitated for a moment, then continued.

"Your Majesty, the Hong River broke its embankment, and the floods affected Fengzhou, Yunzhou, and Yanzhou.

The governor of the three states played, asking the imperial court for disaster relief. "

Wei Wenyu sighed in his heart, the house leak happened to rain all night.

He opened the memorial, a little embarrassed.

The state of Chu's intentions are already obvious, and there is absolutely no delay in the food and grass in the eastern border.

The people of the three states are in dire straits, and they have to save them.

The remaining one and a half million stones in the capital cannot be used for disaster relief, otherwise they will all starve.

But if there is less food for disaster relief, it will be a drop in the bucket for the three states
"Then allocate 100 and 100 shi to the East Territory first, and [-] million shi to the three states for disaster relief."

At this time, Wen Renxu stood up.

"Your Majesty, the land of the three states cannot provide disaster relief."

The two looked at Wen Renxu at the same time, and Wei Wenyu spoke.

"Why can't disaster relief be done?"

"Reporting to Your Majesty, within a short period of time in the Western Zhou Dynasty, there is no hope.

The intention of Chu State is very obvious, if you want to solve my David crisis right now, you can only fight! "

Before entering the palace, Grand Uncle Wei already knew Wen Renxu's idea, that is to fight Chu State.

Entering the territory of Chu State, you can support war with war.

At that time, David may have the qualifications to negotiate with Chu.

However, I didn't say that I don't care about the people of the three states.

"What about the people in the three states?"

Wen Renxu turned to Tai Shuwei and said bluntly.

"One hundred thousand soldiers are fighting at the border, who knows if they will come back after a few months."

"That can't ignore the lives and deaths of millions of people. There are families of soldiers here."

Tai Shuwei's words did not change Wen Renxu's mind.

"If two people were to starve to death at the same time, one victim would starve to death, and this place still belonged to David.

If the soldiers starve to death—”

Speaking of this, Wen Renxu faced Wei Wenyu and knelt on the ground.

"I, David, shall perish."

Tai Shuwei opened his mouth, his heart broke for the sake of the people of the three states.

"Your Majesty, I only need 120 million shi of grain.

In two months, Chen will definitely be able to win Jiannan Road! "

Before Wei Wenyu could speak, Wen Renxu on the ground asked back.

"What if you can't take it?"

"Me!" Grand Uncle Wei knelt down, "Your Majesty, I wish to issue a military order!"

"This battle is about my national destiny!"

Wen Renxu's tone was a little annoyed.

"Don't talk about your grand uncle Wei's head, even the two of us combined together can't guarantee it!"

"His Majesty!"

Wei Wenyu raised his head and sighed, regretting that he didn't hear what others said at the beginning.

"Okay, I've made up my mind to attack Chu with the power of the whole country!"
