Chapter 423

Chang'an, Chengqing hall.

Facing Wenwu, Xiao Wenxuan threw the memorial at the foot of the third prince.

"Look, this is the compromise just made by the king of Wei. This is the king of Chu whom you defend in every way. That's how your uncle humiliated me." Xiao Wenxuan said angrily.

The third prince's face turned white. He squatted down and picked up the memorial. He just glanced at the contents and his face changed.

The fourth Prince glanced at the third prince's look, with a teasing look on his face. Now there is no second prince on the court, and the prince's position is stable. He can only compete with the third prince.

Even if he can't be emperor in the future, he also hopes to let Xiao Wenxuan seal a rich land.

"My father, although my uncle lost to the Dutch, he also fought against the Dutch for the sake of the face of Dayu. Although my uncle lost, he was still proud, my father." Third prince urgent voice way.

He knew very well that he was able to live like a fish in water in the court today because of the support of the king of Chu. This time, the king of Chu lost to the Dutch, which must make the king of Chu feel a little lighter in the heart of the courtiers.

In particular, it is particularly eye-catching that hundreds of warships lost to just ten Dutch warships.

"The third prince is so eloquent. The king of Chu has lost his power and disgraced his country, but his highness says that he is a national hero. It's shameful!" A red robed official said angrily.

After the official made a noise, the fourth Prince showed a smile. The northern and southern vassal kings were always in the wrong way, because they all knew that what the king of Chu had done in recent years was to make the North chaotic.

Now that the king of Chu was defeated by the Dutch, they were naturally very happy and took the opportunity to sneer.

Hearing this, the third prince's face was just like pig's liver, but he also knew that he was wrong this time, but he was not the one to be bullied. He said angrily, "Zheng Hongwen, don't make sarcastic remarks. The king of Chu can at least fight with the Dutch, so you can only hide behind and watch jokes. Who dares to fight with the Dutch if you have this ability?"

As soon as the words came out, the court fell into silence, and the third prince immediately sneered, "how! No one dares? "

Xiao Wenxuan frowned when he heard that there had been no regular water army in the state of Dayu, but only the king of Chu, the king of Wei and the king of Yan. "

Among them, the king of Wei and the king of Chu Linhai are also the two most powerful people. Now the king of Chu has been defeated, and now only the king of Wei is left, because according to his understanding, only the king of Wei has a large fleet.

But he knew that what the king of Chu could not do, the king of Wei could not do, and now the three princes' censure made all the ministers speechless, and he also had no light on his face.

"Is there no one in the whole state of Chongqing who can fight the Dutch?" Xiao Wenxuan asked.

The third prince then said, "father, the fiefdom of the king of Qi is also close to the sea. If the king of Qi can drive away the barbarians, he may not be able to drive away the Dutch. Let the king of Qi have a try."

"Ridiculous, the fiefdom of the king of Qi has just been stable for two years. Now there is no warship to fight with the Dutch." "The third prince, now the king of Chu is defeated, and now he is talking about the unfair treaty proposed by the Dutch," Fiji said

"Right now, the Dutch, through the king of Chu, ask the emperor to exempt the Dutchman's tax from Dayu, open six coastal cities as trading points, and at the same time, do not levy taxes on Dutchman's goods. This unfair treaty is the fault of the king of Chu."

"That's right, Third Prince, what do you say?"

“……”

The court was in chaos.

The third prince's face became more and more ugly. This time, the Dutch defeated the king of Chu and asked the whole state of Dayu to become the most preferential country for the Dutch like the land of Chu. This is no longer a matter for the land of Chu, but for the whole state of Dayu.

Now the court has just got rid of the barbarian's Sui Gong, and now it has to face such a humiliating treaty. Naturally, this contradiction should be concentrated on the king of Chu.

"Father, for the sake of today's plan, we can only agree to the Dutch's request for the time being. Now there is no water army in Dayu that can defeat the Dutch. If we don't agree, the Dutch will continue to harass the coast." The third prince hesitated.

When Luo Quan heard the words, he said angrily: "emperor, it's absolutely not right. The state of Dayu has just defeated the barbarian Yixue Qianshi. Now how can it suffer such humiliation? The ships of the king of Chu have only lost one tenth of their power and have the power to fight again. Let the king of Chu continue to fight against the Dutch, and at the same time, let the king of Wei and the king of Chu cooperate to attack the Dutch."

Xiao Wenxuan frowned. He looked at the third prince and the angry courtiers. He said, "don't quarrel any more. Let me think about it and discuss it again. Is there anything else? If you don't have one, it will be scattered. "

At this time, Fijian came out and said, "Your Majesty, I have a happy event."

"What a happy event, say it." Xiao Wenxuan's expression eased.

Fijian said: "the emperor, recently came something called potato from the fiefdom of the king of Qi. It tastes good. Now there are many merchants selling it in Chang'an. I don't know if the emperor has eaten it."

"Hahaha, I've been eating these two days. The king of Qi ordered someone to send me some and told me how to eat them. I've never tasted this kind of food before. I didn't think the chips fried with potatoes were quite to my taste."Speaking of this, Xiao Wenxuan's mood was a little happier, and only king Qi could make him happy.

Fijian laughed. "I ate some of them too. It's really delicious, but it's said that the potato came from overseas and was snatched by the king of Qi from barbarians."

"Robbed?" Xiao Wenxuan was surprised.

"Yes, your majesty. It is said that the king of Qi sent three warships to Nanyang and sank the foreign barbarians in Nanyang. It is said that these barbarians and Dutch came from the same place." Fiji said.

"Oh? And that? " Xiao Wenxuan didn't know at all.

Fijian nodded, "this is a funny story that he Chen said when she wrote. I didn't expect that the king of Qi was so brave on the sea."

"So the king of Qi can defeat the Dutch?" Third prince disdains a way.

"Not necessarily. It's just that the emperor has always been short of shipyards. If the imperial court can help the king of Qi build more shipyards, it can't let the king of Qi do something on the sea." Fiji said.

This time, Fei yue'er did write to him, but the content of the letter was inspired by Xiao Ming.

When he learned that the king of Chu was defeated, Xiao Ming asked Fei yue'er to send the letter to Chang'an, and took the opportunity to ask the imperial court to support the shipbuilding workshop in Qingzhou.

It is for this purpose that he will bring up this issue at this time.

Xiao Wenxuan's face moved. He couldn't believe the king of Chu, and he couldn't believe the king of Wei. Only Xiao Ming was confident, so he said: "what the book of Feizhong said is reasonable. In any case, we can't compromise with the Dutch this time."
