"..."

There was silence again in the sedan chair.

Pu Jie looked left and right, not sure what these big shots were thinking.

Just then, there was a noise outside.

The emperor looked at the supervisor.

The Supervisor said somewhat awkwardly: "Your Majesty, I was just thinking about the matter of "Han Jia Yuan Di" so I don't know what happened outside."

I thought that all monks could do two things at the same time, but it seems that their brain load is not heavy enough. If the brain load is heavy enough, a first-rank official like the Supervisor will have to become single-threaded and focus on one thing.

Wei Xian lifted a corner of the gauze curtain, and the arguing sound immediately floated in.

"The demon race is going too far... too far!"

"hateful!"

"Is this the style of the demon clan's envoys!?"

……

Apparently, the tiger demon soldier said something rather excessive during the interrogation.

Chu Zhongtian said: "Your Majesty..."

The emperor shook his head.

"No hurry, wait a minute. We don't know what's going on outside, so it's not appropriate to interrupt the discussion. Let's listen to what Old Seven has to say and see how he will handle it."

Everyone else shut up.

The emperor's requirements for the seventh prince are becoming increasingly strict, and it is hard to say what he is thinking.

The warden thought of the white bone case.

Could it be that the prince has really lost his heart?

But recently when I observed the imperial energy in Zhaixing Tower, there didn't seem to be any changes. It was very stable, which made Baisi feel uncomfortable.

Just as I was thinking about all this, the Seventh Prince spoke up.

"Maid, King Zuo, your words seem a little...too frivolous, aren't they?"

Yujun replied: "May I ask Your Highness, what does the word 'frivolous' mean?"

I couldn't see her expression clearly, but her tone was very cold, and I thought she looked calm and composed.

The Seventh Prince snorted coldly.

"Flirty means speaking casually, without being serious or dignified."

"But I don't think Ashu has done anything careless. Look at his expression, tone, and speed when he answered the question just now. He was very serious. I don't know why Your Highness has such an illusion."

When this was said, the crowd was in uproar.

Not only officials, but even the people started to quarrel.

What's more, they insult people even more harshly. Officials would at most say a few words like "this is too much" or "this is insulting to society", but the common people would just point at their noses and curse.

Yujun coughed lightly.

"Your Highness, there are traces of what Ashu said."

She turned to the tiger soldier.

"Repeat it again."

Ashu clasped his fists, then cleared his throat and said, "I think the Holy Nation has an advantage over the human race because the human race is timid and afraid of war."

As soon as these words came out, the emperor knew why Ashu was scolded.

"Hey, the demon tribe is really brave enough to speak up. They are not afraid of not being able to go back."

Ashu on the stage continued, "Take the battle of Yanzhou as an example. He Xingfa killed the Yanzhou garrison and slaughtered more than a thousand soldiers in Yanzhou. The results of the battle were unprecedented. This is an indisputable fact, right?"

In fact, you can still fight for it.

For example, the number of enemies killed, He Xingfa actually killed more than 600 people, but the slaughter of more than 1,000 soldiers is completely nonsense.

But no one will stand up to correct this kind of thing.

More than six hundred and more than a thousand are but the pot calling the kettle black. Correcting it will only make you more likely to be laughed at.

Ashu continued, "But, how many people are there in Yanzhou? How many people are there in the entire Holy Nation? If the human race is not afraid of fighting, why can He Xingfa's tribe run rampant in Yanzhou?"

This question failed to silence everyone, and instead made the scolding even louder.

Tao Ying said, "You mean, civilians joining the war?"

Ashu immediately asked back: "No? Besides, don't pretend you don't know. When we attacked the city, you also conscripted civilians to defend the city and throw stones down. Isn't this civilians participating in the war?"

This is specious talk.

The human race and the demon race are completely different. Civilians have not received military training and can only play a role when defending the city. They will only be a drag on the battlefield.

But given the current situation, I definitely can't say that.

Tao Ying's face turned black.

"You... hum!"

Seeing that Tao Ying remained silent, Ashu continued, "Why can the Holy Kingdom mobilize all its people to fight, while the human race can only flee? I know very well that after the battle of Yanzhou, a large number of people fled Yanzhou. If this is not cowardice and fear of war, what is it?"

Everyone: "..."

Ashu went on to say, "If a few more battles in Yanzhou happen, will all the people in Yanzhou escape? Our Holy Nation doesn't even need to fight, and we can take Yanzhou into our possession."

Li Qingcha glanced at Yujun and couldn't help but sigh.

The lines this girl prepared were really harsh, and she also knew how to use the slippery slope fallacy.

She said, "Interesting..."

The voice was very low, but because of the use of Qi, everyone present could hear it clearly.

In an instant, Liubukou Square fell silent.

Li Qingcha said: "In my opinion, this is clearly an advantage, so how come it has become a disadvantage?"

Ashu was stunned.

"Being timid and afraid of fighting is also an advantage?"

"Oh, or you don't understand Daxia's culture, but have you ever heard the saying 'The way of the people is that those who have permanent property have permanent heart, while those who have no permanent property have no permanent heart. If they have no permanent heart, they will indulge in evil and extravagance, and do whatever they want'?"

"..."

Ashu was stunned.

This is so meow...

The human language is really difficult to understand and I can only understand about 70% of it.

Yujun frowned slightly.

"Master Li, this is a written test. It's a bit unreasonable for you to interrupt suddenly, isn't it?"

Li Qingcha smiled.

"Have you forgotten what you did just now, maid Yujun? When Xiao Pujie was answering questions, you interrupted him again and again, but Daxia has always been hospitable and polite, so you can ask questions."

"First, His Majesty the Seventh Prince interrupted Pu Jie's questioning before I even finished asking it. Second, all the questions I asked were relevant."

"Isn't that what I'm asking?"

"..."

"..."

In an instant, the atmosphere became tense.

Everyone has realized that this essay test is a policy question, but in fact it is also a debate to some extent.

The vanguards of both sides were Li Qingcha and Yuyun.

The Seventh Prince glanced in the direction of the sedan chair, suddenly revealed a bright smile, and said: "Ashu, do you have anything else to add? I must remind you that this is a strategic question. If you step down from the stage, you will no longer have any chance to improve your answer."

This question is exactly the same as the one asked to Pu Jie at that time, but the meaning is completely different:

The purpose last time was to interrupt Yuyun's entanglement with Pu Jie;

This time, he shut Ashu's mouth after Li Qingcha finished speaking.

Yujun was so angry that she vomited blood, and secretly cursed the Seventh Prince for being both a referee and a player.

The rhythm of the game is completely controlled, how to play! ?

Chapter 488 "Letting Go"

Yujun was very depressed.

Before she went on the mission, she heard from the people in the royal court that human officials were modest and polite, and rarely expressed their dissatisfaction directly.

But I don't know why I'm so unlucky. Not only did I run into a weirdo like Li Qingcha, but even the seventh prince who represented the royal family was a mutant.

It's outrageous!

The total amount of hard work for this year's autumn hunting was one shi. Li Qingcha took eight dou, and the rest of the people shared two dou.

Yujun blinked at Ashu frequently.

Ashu understood and said, "I haven't finished yet. At least I want to hear what Chief Li has to say... um... good advice."

Li Qingcha wanted to laugh.

If you are not good at being pretentious, don’t be so pretentious and don’t talk about “brilliant ideas”.

She said, "Is that sentence difficult to understand?"

Ashu was speechless.

He really didn't understand it thoroughly.

The way of the people is that those who have permanent property have permanent heart, while those who have no permanent property have no permanent heart. If one has no permanent heart, he will indulge in evil and extravagance and do whatever he wants.

This is basically literal.

There is a basic principle in the Chinese culture: only those with a certain amount of property income have certain moral concepts and behavioral standards. Those without a certain amount of property income will not have certain moral concepts and behavioral standards. If they do not have certain moral concepts and behavioral standards, they will act recklessly, break the law and discipline, and do all kinds of bad things.

Yujun coughed lightly.

"Your human race's writings aren't difficult to understand. What's so hard about that? But, what does this have to do with being timid and afraid of war?"

Li Qingcha smiled.

"Why aren't the people in your country afraid of war?"

Yujun couldn't help but frown, already knowing what the other party wanted to say.

Li Qingcha continued, "The reason why you are not afraid of war is simply because you have no permanent property and your life is worthless. You are not afraid of war because you have no permanent property. Is this an advantage? No matter how you look at it, it is a disadvantage, right?"

Yujun said: "Let's put aside other things, why did the Zuo Wang dare to go to the battlefield?"

"What you said is meaningless. Daxia also has the precedent of the emperor personally leading the army. Can the royal family and the common people do the same?"

"This……"

Yujun was speechless due to the criticism.

The people rejoiced,

"That's right. The demon tribe is so poor that they have to eat dirt. Of course they are not afraid of war."

"Tsk...you're great just because you're poor, right?"

“That’s really far-fetched.”

……

The demon envoys all looked unhappy.

Yuyun stared at Li Qingcha and said, "Master Li, what's the point of just talking about the words of the saints? They are nothing but general principles! What are the facts? The cavalry of the Holy Kingdom came and went like the wind, and they obtained countless wealth in Yanzhou. Aren't these property?"

Li Qingcha said: "It is property, but not permanent property."
