Chapter 220

"Your Majesty, has the rebels been concluded?"

Zhang Fu's speech was simple and clear, and he asked the most critical questions directly.

"Old Marshal, this matter has been concluded and the foreign enemy is ready to move. This battle is absolutely impossible, so it should be a recruitment."

Hearing such an answer, not only Zhang Fu, but also showed a look of surprise on Wang Dao's face. If this rebel incident is aroused, the consequences will be unimaginable. With a precedent, what should I do if someone becomes ill-intentioned again in the future?

"Emperor, the old minister believes that this matter cannot be brought to peace. The rebels are of great importance. Please consider it again and again. Only suppression is the best way."

"Your Majesty, I believe that the old marshal has returned after leading his troops to fight. He does not know the situation of the national treasury, and the foreign enemies are ready to move again. Once this battle starts and the foreign enemies take the opportunity to move south again, the new Song Dynasty will be in danger."

Liu Sheng directly refuted that although these lords and factions were weak, Xinsong's national strength no longer supported the large-scale battle. The rebels could seize Liangzhe Road within a few days, and even go north to capture Pingzhou and Kangzhou, which shows that the rebels' combat power was definitely not low.

So, in Zhengde Hall, the pro-war faction and the pro-peace faction quarreled, and the leader was naturally a dispute between Zhang Fu and Liu Sheng. After a long time, Zhao Zhi rubbed his head and asked, "Chengde, what do you think about this?"

When Zhao Zhi said this, the whole audience focused on Wang Dao. Just like ten years ago, when there was a dispute in the court, Zhao Zhi handed over the decision to Wang Dao.

Wang Dao stroked his beard and looked around and said, "Since the emperor asked, then Caomin will talk about his own views. Rebels and foreign enemies, I think it is important to suppress the rebels, because the rebels occupy Liangzhe Road and the places north of the country. Although the foreign enemies are ready to move, if they go south, they will encounter rebels. If the rebels do not resist, we can use this matter to disrupt the morale of the rebels. No matter what, the rebels are all citizens of Xinsong. None of that people will hope that the territory of their country will be occupied by foreign enemies. As for the recruitment, the emperor, now a Tianshi appears, and when recruitment is recruited, it will set a precedent. So if those bandits revolt again, with this precedent, will they continue to recruit them?"

After Wang Dao finished speaking, he stood there waiting for Zhao Zhi's reply. He said clearly that he could only suppress the rebels, and even explained the method of suppression. He was to wait for the foreign enemy to move south and the rebels were in a dilemma.

In the court, those lords and factions were afraid to continue to persuade due to the former pressure of the kingly way. Although the prince Zhao Ke, who was sitting below Zhao Zhi, wanted to speak, as the prince, he could only listen first in the court because he was not the emperor yet, and there was no way, so he could only keep winking at Liu Sheng.

Of course, Liu Sheng saw the look of the prince Zhao Ke, but he didn't dare. He was still scared of Wang Dao's strength back then. He didn't use tricks to make a gap between Emperor Zhao Zhi and Wang Dao. I am afraid that Liu Sheng can only be an unknown left prime minister until now.

After a long time, Liu Sheng took a deep breath and spoke: "Emperor, I believe that the prince has resigned for many years and is a little unclear about the situation of the country, so I think recruiting peace is the last choice."

Wang Dao turned his head and looked at the villain who had been lurking around him. The murderous intent in his eyes burst out instantly. Before he resigned from office, he should have been cruel to catch all these timid villains in one place. Who knew that now it has become a climate and he has no ability to eradicate them. There is no way, Wang Dao can only put his expectations on Zhao Zhi.

After hearing this, Zhang Fu's eyes were almost on fire, especially when he heard the last word of relief, he felt a burst of fire in his heart, and he instantly drew a knife and placed it on Liu Sheng's neck.

"Liu Sheng, you little man, do you know my knife?"

As soon as Zhang Fu's actions were made, the court suddenly became panicked. Could it be that the things that happened back then would happen again?

"Old Marshal, why bother to use the sword? I have already made a decision on this matter. I am afraid that it will not be possible to recruit you. As for the suppression, let's discuss it again."
