Xie Shiyuan also came out to speak out: "Your Majesty, let's put Shi Hu's affairs aside first. Cao Shi revealed his rebellion. A battle is inevitable. This is the most important thing at the moment."

"Maybe there is no need for the imperial court to send troops to the expedition. The labor force will be too expensive. The emperor can directly issue an edict to order Shi Hu to send troops to quell the rebellion. Cao Shi's few soldiers are no match for Shi Hu at all."

Zhan Taiyi Heng said: "After Wei Wennan's death, although the court was very suspicious of Shi Hu and there was a gap between the two sides, after all, Shi Hu was still respectful to the court and was very loyal. Now Cao Shi openly rebelled, and it was just when people were needed. The emperor might as well use Shi Hu and let him send troops to quell the rebellion, which could just test his true feelings for the court."

Zhan Taiyi Heng has been very active in recent times. As Zheng Renjie and He Zhongkai retired, the position of Prime Minister of the Political Affairs Hall has been vacant. This is a huge opportunity for many people. As the right assistant minister of the Ministry of Justice, Zhan Taiyi Heng is enough for both official positions and qualifications, so he has a very good chance.

"Mr. Zhan Tai is such a bad statement."

Li Zhong is alone and can't stand it. Although he is the left prime minister, he only represents him, not a party. No matter how high his official position and prestige are, he will never be able to control the direction of the presidency.

But at this time, Li Xun stood up.

Zhan Taiyiheng and others looked at Li Xun, their eyes flashed, while Xie Shiyuan frowned slightly. Since he had already agreed with him, what is the reason for you, Li Xun, to stand up and oppose him at this time?

Zhan Taiyi Heng said indifferently to Li Xun: "I wonder what kind of opinions Li Xiangguo has?"

Li Xun replied calmly: "I dare not be aware of it, I just have some disagreements."

Zhao Xun asked out loud: "Li Xun, what do you think?"

Li Xun bowed and said in a deep voice: "The court has made a conclusion about Shi Hu. If he is asked to send troops, it is equivalent to acknowledging his legal status. Then all the discussions in the court before have become a farce?"

Zhan Taiyi Heng said coldly: "It is better to have one enemy less than one more enemy. How can one act emotionally in the country's affairs?"

Li Xun said indifferently: "If you only talk about interests, regardless of virtue and righteousness, and ignore the unexplained death of loyal ministers, how can you convince the public and calm people's hearts, how can the court correct its reputation?"

"What Li Xiangguo said is extremely true, I will discuss it."

Lu Bojiang made a statement to support Li Xun. He said: "Since the court has formulated the rules, everyone must abide by them. If Shi Hu is tolerated today, others will follow their example in the future. In the long run, the imperial court's majesty and prestige will be gone, without any benefit from the country and without any benefit from the emperor."

"The court maintains the orthodoxy of the world, which is virtue, benevolence, etiquette and righteousness. If you lose these, people will be confused."

Zhai Hongliang also expressed his support.

Chen Hu sneered coldly: "Everyone said that they were high-sounding. If they really had to do anything, once Shi Hu and Cao Shi united, they would have nearly 50,000 troops. The maximum force that Zhao Baian and Kou Xiong could use in Jiangnan was only 50,000. The court did not have any advantage in military strength. Cao Shi had the convenience of geographical advantage. If this battle was stalemate, would it be beneficial to the country and the emperor?"

Li Zhong said in a deep voice: "Whoever rebels will fight, and the court will only fight Cao Shi, not Shi Hu. If Shi Hu really cares for the court as Lord Chen said, then there is no need for the court to say more. He will naturally take the initiative to send troops to cooperate with Zhao Bai'an in the use of troops, rather than just talking about interests and conditions with the court before the war begins."

Zhan Tai Yi Heng smiled and said, "Shi Hu asked the court several times to ask him to be the governor of Qianzhou. The emperor might as well agree to him, so that he can calm his heart and aspire to his ambitions."

Li Zhong objected: "How can the governor easily be appointed?"

Li Xun also spoke out: "There are too many disputes, and this matter is indisputable."

When did Li Xun and Li Zhong advance and retreat together? At this moment, many people looked at them with a little playful look.

The reason why Li Xun strongly supported Li Zhong was not against Shi Hu. He had never met Shi Hu, and he didn't recognize him, and there was no conflict of interests. The reason why he opposed it was because Li Xun felt that Cao Shi openly killed Lu Siyao, had troops to stand up and resisted the court, which was a complete rebellion. In comparison, Shi Hu was not much better, but Shi Hu was more patient and had a relatively gentle attitude. However, in essence, what the two people did was actually a traitor and intended to separatist the local area. If the court was tolerant, what would the people in the world view?

Ideological changes are often difficult to change. If the court tolerate because of temporary interests, as Lu Bojiang said, since the court has formulated rules, everyone must abide by them. If the court indulges in favor because of interests, others will follow their example in the future. In the long run, the imperial court's majesty and prestige will be gone.

If an imperial court loses even the most basic majesty and prestige, who in the world will take you seriously?

Someone was going to make suggestions, and Zhao Xun raised his hand to stop him: "Let's just calm down."

Zhao Xun fell into deep thought. The advice of Li Xun, Li Zhong and others is very reasonable in terms of principle. If some things happen only about benefits, they may get much more than they lose.

Today's court meeting was finally abandoned halfway because the differences were too great. Besides Li Zhong, Li Xun and Xie Shiyuan, other prime ministers in the Zhengshitang did not make any statements. If the discussion continued, it would only lead to a big debate. What Zhao Xun wanted was a solution to the problem, not arguing.

After the dynasty was dispersed, Zhao Xun sent someone to summon Li Xun and Li Zhong.

"What Zhan Taiyiheng and others said is not completely unreasonable. If we really want to fight, we do not have an advantage in terms of military strength."

Zhao Xun pointed at Li Zhong, Li Xun and asked in a deep voice.

Li Xun looked at Zhao Xun, and from Zhao Xun summoning Li Zhong and himself alone and saying this again, it can be seen that Zhao Xun's mentality has actually been largely inclined toward Li Zhong and himself. However, as the emperor, he has his own concerns. War is not a joke. Once the fight starts, either you die or I die. The relationship is too great and needs to be considered comprehensively.

Li Zhong said: "Emperor, the occurrence of war is often not determined by himself. Just like the two battles in Longyou, we did not take the initiative to fight, but we had to fight. The current situation is the same. Cao Shi was ruthless and Shi Hu had ulterior motives. If the court allowed to tolerate it, the war might be avoided, but the court would be wiped out as a result. Without the majesty, who in the world would obey the orders of the court?"
