All officials did not care about what Chen Changfeng said.

When what Chen Changfeng said really happens, they may not be able to stand here.

It’s enough to be carefree during your lifetime, so where can you care about the huge waves after death?

But if Chen Changfeng's proposal is realized in front of him, it is to cut off their flesh and blood.

Many people were secretly grateful in their hearts that it was the second prince and the third prince who were alert, otherwise they would have been fooled by the double act of Chen Changfeng and Tang Mingren.

No matter what today, they will not agree to Chen Changfeng's proposal.

"Your Majesty, I think the Crown Prince is an alarmist statement. The Ming Empire has been recommending officials for three hundred years, and there is no problem."

"Why is it a disaster that endangers the foundation of the empire now that it is the only way to endanger the foundation of the empire?" Some officials stood up and opposed Chen Changfeng's proposal in person.

"Mr. Zhang said it well. His Highness the Crown Prince thought too much, so he had this worry."

"Your Highness the Crown Prince felt that my Ming system was inappropriate, so he wanted to come out properly instead of exaggerating here." Someone echoed.

Some people objected, and all the officials who were worried about their losses immediately jumped out.

Tang Mingren looked at Chen Changfeng and shook his head secretly.

Chen Changfeng asked him to be the first to be a leader, but in the end it was useless and still caused trouble.

"Your Majesty clearly understands that the prince is just not considering it well, not exaggerating." Yao Xiaoren quickly defended Chen Changfeng.

The second prince and the third prince looked cold. They didn't need to speak now. These ministers alone could make Chen Changfeng unable to bear it.

Both of them knew very well.

The reason why Chen Changfeng wanted to recommend the imperial examination was not for the sake of the Ming Empire.

It was nothing more than Chen Changfeng knew that all the officials in the court had defected to him. It was basically unlikely that Chen Changfeng would want to recruit officials in the court.

Therefore, Chen Changfeng planned to use the imperial examination to become an official and absorb a group of newcomers under his command.

But Chen Changfeng took too much steps and got the ball.

Chen Changfeng is so self-righteous that he dares to touch the interests of ninety percent of people!

The emperor's eyes were slightly deeper, and Chen Changfeng's method was feasible.

But if you put it rashly, it is completely unintelligent.

If you, Chen Changfeng, really want to do this, you must first win over a group of people and promise that their interests will not be harmed.

This way someone can support it.

But what about now?

The court officials in the hall did not see any support except those who opposed it.

"Father, do you also think there is something wrong with this proposal?" Chen Changfeng suddenly asked the emperor.

The emperor was stunned and thought to himself that you, Chen Changfeng, weren’t you talking nonsense?

Of course, the emperor I know that you, Chen Changfeng, are right, and I also want to do it according to your Chen Changfeng's suggestion.

But all the ministers in the court opposed it, and they were just doing nothing.

"I think your proposal is good, but..."

"Your Majesty, the border is urgently reported!" The emperor's but before he could speak out, the voice of the soldiers came from outside the Tai Chi Hall.

A soldier walked into the hall with a tired face, then knelt on the ground and said to the emperor: "Your Majesty, the military advisor reported that the Great Chu Empire refused to return the thirteen cities of the Nan County of Daming, and also killed the envoys sent by the Ming Dynasty. The soldiers on the front line were excited, please make a decision."

The voice of the soldiers resounded in the Tai Chi Hall.

Except for Chen Changfeng, everyone was stunned and stunned.

The guy Qi Sha really didn't lie to me. Liu Shuwen's military report was indeed in Beijing today.

Chen Changfeng showed a smile on his lips.

This morning, Qisha sent someone to spread news to him that he was looking for assassin seedlings outside the capital, and found that the soldiers of the Ming border army were resting.

At that time, Chen Changfeng thought of what Yao Xiaoren had told him about the refusal of Da Chu to return the Thirteen Cities of Daming Nanjun.

It is also estimated that during the court meeting today, news from the border soldiers will be heard from the army.

At this moment, it was indeed as Chen Changfeng expected.

Since the news has come, it is time for him, Chen Changfeng, to express it.

"Say it again!" The emperor's voice was cold.

The emperor expected that the Great Chu Empire would not easily return the Thirteen cities of Nanjun, but he did not expect that the Great Chu Empire would dare to attack his envoys of the Ming Dynasty directly!

This is completely not taking the Ming Empire seriously.

When the two countries are at war, they will not be killed.

The way of the Great Chu Empire was to slap the Ming Empire in the face.

"His Majesty, calm down." Yao Xiaoren quickly persuaded.

What he was most worried about was still happening.

If the Great Chu Empire did not do anything, it would definitely be ridiculed by the people of the world if the Great Chu Empire did not act.

But if it is an action, it can only be a battle with the Great Chu Empire.

With the current national strength and military strength of the Ming Dynasty, Yao Xiaoren could not see any chance of victory.

"The bastards from the Great Chu Empire have stepped on me. How can you calm me down?" The emperor slapped the table suddenly.

"Minister of War, how many people can fight in the Ming Dynasty?" The emperor's eyes fell on the third prince.

The third prince was shocked, and then quickly said, "Your father, besides the necessary garrison forces in various places, those who can go to the battlefield should be around 300,000."

"Minister of the Ministry of Revenue, 300,000 soldiers, how much money does it cost?" The emperor looked at Chen Changfeng again.

Chen Changfeng said lightly: "The loss of 2 million taels per month is to see how many months my father is going to fight."

When the emperor heard this, his anger was instantly extinguished.

Let’s not talk about the military strength of the Great Chu Empire. The 300,000 soldiers of the Ming Empire spent 2 million taels of military funds per month, which was not something that the Ming treasury could bear.

How much money can the Ministry of Revenue have? The last time the corruption investigation was only more than eight million taels.

It only took a few months to spend all this money on military spending.

How many months can the Ming army defeat the Great Chu Empire?

Impossible.

Once the war begins, it will be a completely money-burning machine.

It is impossible to end the war without half a year or even more than a year.

Could it be that his great Ming Empire wants to live in such humiliation?

"Your Majesty, you can't fight this battle. The strong strength of the Great Chu Empire is not something we can deal with."

"If they angered the Great Chu Empire and gave them an excuse, they would definitely launch attacks on all parts of our Ming Dynasty. Then our Ming Dynasty..." Someone advised the emperor with a sad look.

"Father, this battle cannot be fought. Now the money of the treasury of the Ming Empire is far from enough to support a large-scale war, and the opponent is still the Ming Dynasty." The second prince also said immediately.

"Crown Prince, why is the military capital of 2 million taels per month so high?" The emperor didn't pay attention to the second prince. He wanted to know why he had to spend two million in military capital a month.

If this is true, his annual tax revenue in Ming Dynasty would only be enough for a year to fight?

Chen Changfeng felt a little moved and bowed and said, "Father, son minister said before that 30% of them are given to those generals."

"The generals' weapons, armor, and war horses all cost. Two million taels are spent on them..."

"Lao Liu, what are you talking about?" The third prince became anxious when he heard that Chen Changfeng turned the topic to the previous matter.

The emperor was not angry before, and the Ming Dynasty was not so humiliated by the Great Chu. In addition, with the opposition of all officials, the emperor certainly did not want to hurt the hearts of all court officials because of Chen Changfeng alone.

But now it's different.

The Great Chu Empire rode on the head of the Ming Dynasty.

What the emperor now thought was to give the Great Chu Empire a blow and return all the humiliation suffered by the Ming Dynasty.
