Chapter 493

Empress Zhangsun, Li Xueyan, Wu Meiniang, and Changle look at Li Er with tension and confusion.

They all feel that Li Er seems a bit wrong.

Especially Empress Zhangsun, who frowns tightly, staring fixedly at Li Er.

"Old Li, what are you looking at?"

Qin Mu also notices something strange and asks.

Only then does Li Er finally react.

"Ah... Your Majesty, I was just lost in thought for a moment."

Spraying Li Er with anger! (Please subscribe!)

Li Er hurries to find an excuse.

No!

Must stabilize his mind!

Li Er hurries to take a breath.

Guessing that Qin Mu might be his son, seeing him again, Li Er's mood really cannot be as calm as before.

"Cough cough... Your Majesty, what is going on with this main hall?"

Feeling Li Er's panic, Fang Xuanling hurries to take over the conversation.

When he first came in, he had already discovered the paper covering the floor, and his heart was shocked to the extreme.

The quality of this paper can be seen at a glance.

All are top quality!

It looks like the whole hall is covered in paper, but in reality, it is a golden mountain of an entire hall!

Even though Fang Xuanling is knowledgeable, his eyes cannot help but become a bit hot.

Such a thing has never been seen in the Great Tang.

"You came just in time; I also have something I want to discuss with you." Qin Mu turns around, looks at the paper on the ground, and says: "The Turks are rampant, Youzhou and the northern border were all burned to the ground, commoners died or were injured in countless numbers, and to restore vitality in a short time, we must have a large amount of money to support it. Because of this, I intend to fight an economic war with several other surrounding empires, looting their economy and property to nourish the vitality of the northern border."

"What!? Your Majesty, please show mercy! The Great Tang really cannot withstand your tossing like this! I know Your Majesty hates the ruling class of the Great Tang to the bone, but the commoners are innocent! Please, for the sake of the common people in the world, spare the Great Tang for now!"

Hearing Qin Mu's words, Li Er is almost scared out of his wits.

He also notices this snow-white, soft paper.

Not to be polite.

Each sheet is priceless!

The quantity of paper before him is at least over ten million!

If all this paper were dumped into the Great Tang, the entire Great Tang would probably go bankrupt instantly!

Living in misery, exchanging children to eat!

It will be staged again on the land of the Central Plains.

Li Er is not pleading with Qin Mu for himself, but for the common people of the world.

"Hmph! You still know about the common people of the world?" Qin Mu smiles coldly and rebukes: "Look at what your Great Tang has done all these years? Besides sending money and women to other surrounding empires, it is just vanity and holding some kind of ten-thousand-nation celebration! Isn't it just to satisfy the vanity of your Great Tang Emperor? Now you know about the common people? What were you doing earlier?"

Qin Mu's scolding makes Li Er feel extremely embarrassed on the spot, wishing he could find a hole to crawl into.

Not a single word he said was false.

Since the ancient article written by Qin Mu changed the Great Tang, Li Er and the ruling class started to float!

Especially Li Er!

Dreaming all day of being the emperor of the ages, he no longer wants to see the hardships of the people, and can't wait to promote the strength of the Great Tang to surrounding countries.

He even generously sent women, money, and technology!

What is it for in the final analysis?

Isn't it just feeling that he is awesome?

Now it's good!

Great Qin is like a mountain of ten thousand feet, pressing firmly on the head of the Great Tang.

Li Er can no longer be proud!

Every day is like facing an abyss!

"Your Majesty, calm down first! Although the Great Tang Emperor has a thousand faults, the commoners are innocent..."

Seeing Li Er's embarrassment, Fang Xuanling hurries to smooth things over.

Empress Zhangsun, Li Xueyan, Wu Meiniang, and Changle do not speak for Li Er.

Because they understand in their hearts.

Qin Mu has no intention of dumping these things into the Great Tang at all.

He is going to be the true emperor of the ages!

What is an emperor of the ages?

Supported by the people, the country is rich and strong!

If you can't do this, you don't deserve to be called an emperor of the ages!

"Let's not look at the monk's face, look at the Buddha's face; after all, we are of the same origin."

If Qin Mu really causes chaos in the world and the people live in misery, even if he makes up for it later, he will leave a fatal stain in the history books!

This is not only what Qin Mu himself is unwilling to do, but Empress Zhangsun and the others will never agree to it either.

"Rest assured! Prime Minister Fang, Your Majesty has no intention of dumping this paper into the Great Tang at all, but wants to crush the Roman Empire and other places." Empress Zhangsun stands out and says.

Hearing this, Li Er and Fang Xuanling breathe a sigh of relief and hurry to wipe the cold sweat from their foreheads. Fortunately!... Begging for flowers... If Qin Mu used this move again, it would really be better to just slit his throat and hang himself!

"Alright, don't stand here. You two have been working hard these days; let's go, I will personally host a welcome banquet for you!" Qin Mu restores his usual indifferent expression and leads Li Er, Fang Xuanling, and others toward the side hall.

Inside the side hall.

Cups and dishes are intertwined.

Qin Mu, Li Er, and Fang Xuanling talk happily.

"Your Majesty, I toast you a cup!"

Fang Xuanling suddenly stands up and drinks the wine in the cup in one gulp.

"Old Fang, we have known each other for many years; although our positions were different before, we can be considered confidants, so why be so polite?"

Qin Mu smiles faintly.

He has always appreciated Fang Xuanling very much.

Loyal and resourceful.

"Your Majesty, if it weren't for you, the northern border wouldn't have calmed down so quickly, and millions of commoners wouldn't have escaped death."

"For this alone, I, Old Fang, admire you!"

Fang Xuanling's eye sockets turn red when he speaks excitedly.

Whether it is Great Qin or Great Tang.

In the final analysis!

Everyone is a descendant of the Han family!

No matter who occupies the northern border, as long as they can resist foreign aggression, that is enough.

Fang Xuanling is indeed a prime minister who will leave a good name for ages.

His breadth of mind and temperament have long surpassed the scope of a dynasty, placing the entire Central Plains world in his heart.

"Old Fang, this is why I appreciate you; come, cheers!"

Fang Xuanling's words make Qin Mu feel happy and satisfied, and he drinks the wine in his cup in one gulp.

Li Er, who is nearby, witnesses everything, and his heart feels extremely uncomfortable.

Sour!

Sour to death!

Damn!

Fang Xuanling is my pillar of state, not your Qin Mu's!

This is truly unreasonable!

But no matter how much he resents, Li Er has to admit in his heart.

If it weren't for Qin Mu, I don't know how many Central Plains commoners would have died in the war.

And this is not the most important thing!

If the hidden danger of the Turks is not removed, they will forever harass the Great Tang's northern border, commoners will forever die, and there will never be peace.
