Chapter 699
Who doesn't understand what he meant?
Xiao Yunzhi smiled: "I heard that Liu Yushi was also a genius when he was young?"

What's the meaning?Is it ironic that he is old now, or that he has no talent now?
Xiao Yunzhi didn't care what was going on in his mind, he asked: "If you have read the book, you must have heard of the saying that Liu Yushi must have heard of the saying 'to fight against the outside world, you must first settle down'. Let go of the foundation of the country, but Gu feels that the cart is putting the cart before the horse."

Liu Yushi opened his mouth and said, "Then according to the prince, what is the 'foundation of the country'?"

He thought disdainfully in his heart: Could it be that the prince wants to talk about the prestige of the court?

Xiao Yunzhi walked up to him, and answered clearly: "It's 'people', it's the common people."

In Daxia, the ideology of status class is still deeply rooted. In the eyes of the rich and powerful, the people without money and power are just untouchables who are destined to be trampled under their feet. In the eyes of the students, the illiterate people are just vulgar and dull rotten wood.

At least at this moment, no one was willing to respond to the prince's words, Liu Yushi even sneered.

But the emperor, who had been silent from the very beginning, spoke up: "Keep talking."

Xiao Yun knew: "I just ask a simple question."

"Why would the barbarians demand peace talks?"

Without waiting for Liu Yushi, who showed disdain, to continue his nonsense, he continued: "I believe that many ministers who advocate unlimited tolerance have forgotten that the reason for the peace talks is because the barbarians were defeated."

"It is true that the barbarians have been a concern of our Great Xia for many years, and it is not incomprehensible for you to be eager for a truce this time."

"But have you overlooked an important question - who is the dominant Xia and the barbarians?"

"It's our big summer."

"Great Xia has a vast territory and rich resources, a thriving population, and strong soldiers and horses, so the barbarians have worked hard for many years and are still only the defeated side."

"But have you ever thought about where the strength of Great Xia comes from?"

"It's the people, it's the people."

"The people are strong and the soldiers are strong, so the Great Xia is strong."

"While water can carry a boat, it can also overturn it. If we all focus on the peace talks with foreigners at this moment, but no one cares about the suffering of the people, what will happen next?"

"More importantly, when Great Xia started civil strife, would the barbarians just watch obediently?"

The ministers fell into deep thought, Xiao Yunzhi said to Liu Yushi again: "Master Liu still thinks that he only cares about the dam for his own achievements?"

Liu Yushi: ...

Xiao Yunzhi won an overwhelming victory in this battle, but he also severely offended a group of ministers.

While the emperor was venting his anger, he couldn't help but remind the prince to pay attention to the "speed" and not to offend people too hard all at once.

Xiao Yunzhi was taught, but he said in his heart: Don't worry, they are all carefully selected people.

Without exception, these ministers who had been severely beaten by the prince met His Royal Highness Hui Wang "accidentally" and had a heart-to-heart conversation.

Out of dissatisfaction with the prince, they quickly formed an alliance.

However, the speakers have a common feature - no matter how extravagant their words are, they are always cowardly when they act.

Of course Xiao Yunming knew this, so all he wanted was support on the surface.

Then, the wedding ceremony arrived.

Just two days before the marriage ceremony, a dam far from the capital had a problem.

I don't know whether it was because of cutting corners or some mistakes in the construction of the dam. After three days of heavy rain, cracks appeared on the dam wall.

Although the crack is small, it is enough to cause panic.
