C452 Redeem I like It!

"My dear officials, what do you think?"

After the five countries' envoys left, Lee Shi started to ask for the civil and military officials' opinions.

Lee Shi was not a stubborn person.

As the saying goes, if you listen to both, you understand; if you listen, you listen secretly.

He was the overlord of brute force.

Sometimes, it was the saintly way of governing a country to pool one's thoughts and take on all sorts of advice.

"Your Majesty, this general believes that the conditions of these fellows must never be met!"

A military official with a full beard stepped forward.

This was an old general of Tao Tang, who was considered half a disciple of Zeng Tajiang. Therefore, Lee Shi was not very confident with him, but he still listened to his words seriously.

Letting these soldiers return is equivalent to letting a tiger return to the mountain!

This lowly general recommends that you directly execute these five hundred thousand soldiers to prevent future troubles! "

Hearing these words filled with killing intent, everyone in the hall shook their heads and silently cursed the foolish military man in their hearts.

Lee Shi did not say anything and let everyone continue to express their opinions.

"This official thinks that since His Majesty has just ascended the throne, it would not be appropriate for him to start another dispute with the five kingdoms. We can send these five hundred thousand soldiers back to them.

Furthermore, everyone here was a member of the Southeast Alliance, if these five nations continued to weaken over a long period of time, they would be swallowed by the other great nations.

"When the time comes, we won't have an intact egg under the cover of nesting. When our lips die and our teeth become cold, we Tao Tang will easily fall into danger!"

This message was sent by a considerate old official of Tao Tang, and it resonated with many people.

However, Lee Shi was not in a good mood!

Wasn't it a waste for the five nations to pick up a big bargain?

Doesn't this mean that Tao Tang is easy to bully?

Therefore, he still did not say anything. His expression was as calm as still water, waiting for the third person to speak.

After that one person and one person spoke, the hall was like a pot of boiling water as all sorts of ideas and suggestions started appearing one after the other.

"Cough."

A cough that was neither light nor heavy suddenly sounded out, attracting the gazes of everyone in the hall.

Everyone looked over and realized it was a young man wearing a blue robe.

Lan Zi'ang, these two words instantly appeared in everyone's mind.

This name had appeared quite a few times on the tables of the officials these days.

Although Tao Tang's position of prime minister was still empty, but with Lee Shi's trust in Lan Zi'ang, Lan Zi'ang had unknowingly become the head of the civil service.

Everyone guessed that if there was no surprise, then the position of Prime Minister would eventually fall to Lan Zi'ang.

Therefore, many people were investigating Lan Zi'ang's information in hopes of getting closer to him.

Seeing that Lan Zi'ang wanted to say something, everyone gave him the greatest respect and silently waited for him to speak.2

Lan Zi'ang was slightly excited.

One year ago, he'd never dreamed that he would one day stand on top of this Ding Xiao Palace and become the focus of tens of thousands of gazes.

And all of this was given to him by the youth on the throne!

"Your Majesty." Therefore, Lan Zi'ang first gave Lee Shi a respectful bow before starting to speak frankly with assurance.

"This humble subject believes that the five great nations have the option of redeeming the five hundred thousand soldiers with various resources.

It could be money, ores, food, medicine … In any case, whatever our Tao Tang lacks, we'll find them and ask for it! "

Lee Shi's eyes immediately lit up.

Redeem?

I like it!

He didn't say anything, but continued to look at Lan Zi'ang with expectation and encouragement.

With the faint support of Lee Shi, Lan Zi'ang was more confident and his voice also became louder.

"As we all know, the domestic situation of the five countries is not very optimistic right now."

Hearing this, a wave of unspoken laughter sounded in the hall.
