After rebirth, I ran wild in the heart of His Highness the Prince

They say they want to give a result, but actually they want the peace faction to find a way to convince the war faction.

The emperor knows the strength of the Central Plains better than anyone else. A daughter can be exchanged for five or ten years to rest and grow stronger. When the barbarian country regains its intention to fight, they can avoid such a tragedy.

As a royal princess, enjoying the glory of the people's admiration and service, she must make sacrifices for the people when necessary.

In the imperial study room, Qin Jingguo and Chu Xiao had both arrived. The other civil servants and generals were standing behind them, separated by a wide aisle, clearly distinguishable from each other.

Gu Siyi also arrived, and when he saw Gu Siyuan coming in, a cold light flashed in his eyes.

"Prince, what do you think about the marriage proposal from Manguo?"

The emperor spared Gu Siyuan's salute and asked directly.

Gu Siyuan frowned slightly, thought for a moment and then said: "Reporting to my father, I believe that it is not appropriate to start a war in the Central Plains now."

As soon as the words fell, they immediately attracted the attention of the military generals headed by General Chu. They seemed not to have expected that the prince was also from the peace faction.

Seeing that Chu Xiao had something to say, the emperor raised his hand to stop him and looked at Gu Siyuan: "Tell me in detail."

"Our country's national treasury is currently empty and there is a shortage of talents. If a war breaks out, the rear logistics cannot ensure the war supplies in the front."

Gu Siyuan slowly spoke: "If we cannot defeat the enemy in one fell swoop and are dragged into a protracted war, we can only collect corvees and increase taxes to supply military supplies. The people have not yet lived and worked in peace and contentment, and there are many such burdens, which will waste people and money, I'm afraid it will Causing internal and external troubles.

Moreover, only General Chu among our generals can make the enemy fearful. If the enemy specially thinks of a way to deal with General Chu and is injured and has to retreat from the battlefield, the confidence of our soldiers will be damaged, and the enemy will become more unscrupulous. When the time comes, the consequences will be disastrous. "

Gu Siyuan did not want to push the third princess into a pit of fire, but he had to make a choice for the people of the Central Plains and the soldiers at the border.

"Brother Huang, what you mean is that Yingying must marry into a barbarian country and live the kind of life where she eats hair and drinks blood?"

Gu Siyuan's voice came over, and before the emperor could speak, Gu Siyi on the side seemed to speak: "Yingying has been pampered since she was a child, and has a arrogant temper. She married into a difficult place like a barbarian country, and she must be walking on thin ice every day. If she is not careful, she will... If your life is in danger, are you willing to send your own sister to the wolf's den?"

Despite the righteous expression on Gu Siyi's face, he seemed to care about the third princess.

In fact, he didn't care at all who was sent to get married, he just wanted to show his kindness in front of the emperor.

"Your Majesty, the barbarians are greedy, and asking for marriage is just a naughty trick. After the princess is married, they will definitely make more excessive demands and continue to ask for it from the Central Plains. When the time comes, they must not send the princess over, and still ask for it. Your Majesty, please think twice."

Chu Xiao also followed Gu Siyi and spoke. The emperor frowned and still looked at Gu Siyuan.

Gu Siyuan threw his hands away and said, "My son is stupid and can't think of a way to achieve both ends. Please let your father make a decision."

He didn't pay any attention to Gu Siyi, and let his accusations go to waste.

Gu Siyi clenched his fists tightly, and the coldness spread in his eyes.

"Your Majesty, I believe that what His Highness the Crown Prince said is reasonable."

Qin Jingguo stood up to support Gu Siyuan, expanded on what he said, and successfully made General Chu on the side look down.

After hearing this, the emperor did not make an immediate decision, but asked about the situation of the Ministry of Finance.

As Gu Siyuan said, the national treasury was too empty to support the war, so he could only agree to the barbarian country's marriage proposal.

After the emperor agreed to the marriage, Chu Xiao's face turned darker, with undisguised anger on his face.

He felt that getting married was a humiliation, and he didn't have a good look on the Lord and the others, so he just threw up his sleeves and left after leaving the Imperial Study Room.

Qin Jingguo has been in a high position for many years, but he has never been so cold-hearted. He immediately became a bit angry.

"General Chu has been at the border for many years. He is naturally resentful of the barbarians. He is not an unreasonable person. He just needs time to calm down. Please understand, Prime Minister."

Gu Siyuan stood aside and persuaded Qin Jingguo in a low voice.

The two are about to become in-laws, and they are at odds over court affairs. I wonder if it will affect the relationship between the children.

His Royal Highness the Crown Prince personally persuaded Qin Jingguo to give him face. There were many things that civil servants and generals could not understand, so they had to take their time.

"His Royal Highness said so."

Qin Jingguo nodded. Now that the marriage has been decided, there is no possibility of changing it. There is really no need for him to be angry with Chu Xiao.

Seeing Gu Siyuan and Qin Jingguo leaving together, Gu Siyi frowned tightly.

Gu Siyuan is really very scheming, and now he is starting to pave the way for power. If the civil servants want it, the generals don't want to let him go, right?

If these two people really stood in his camp, wouldn't he be at a disadvantage?

He must not be allowed to succeed, Gu Siyi thought for a while, then went to Changle Palace again.

"Mother concubine."

Gu Siyi entered the hall and was glanced at by Concubine Yun.

"Where is the second young lady of the Qin family?"

Concubine Yun asked in a deep voice.

Gu Siyi lowered his head: "Back to my mother, I have already left the palace."
