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

"Look, this is the book that King Wei just went to. This is the King Chu you defended in every possible way. Your uncle shamed me in this way." Xiao Wenxuan said angrily.

The third prince's face was a bit pale, he squatted down and picked up the memorial, his face changed just by scanning the contents above.

The fourth prince glanced at the expression of the third prince, with teasing 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 could not be the emperor in the future, he hoped that Xiao Wenxuan's performance would make him a rich fief.

"Father, although my uncle lost to the Dutch, he also fought against the Dutch for the face of the country of Da Yu. Although my uncle was defeated, my father is honored," the third prince said anxiously.

He knew very well that he was able to live like a fish in the court nowadays, all because of the support of the King of Chu. This time King of Chu was defeated by the Dutch, which inevitably made King Chu a little lighter in the hearts of courtiers.

Especially the memorial to the loss of hundreds of warships to just ten Dutch warships is particularly dazzling.

"The three princes are really clever tongues. The king of Chu lost his power and insulted the country, but his Highness described him as a national hero. It is shameful!" a red robe official said angrily.

After the official spoke out, the four princes smiled. The northern and southern princes had always been wrong, because they all understood the activities that the king of Chu had done over the years, and they hoped that the north would become chaotic.

Now that King Chu was defeated by the Dutch, they were naturally very happy and took the opportunity to ridicule.

When the third prince heard this, his face was like pig liver, but he also knew that he was wrong this time, but he was not the master of bullying, and said angrily: "Zheng Hongwen, don't talk cold words, the king of Chu can at least be as good as the Dutch. Fight, you can only hide behind and watch the jokes. With this ability, who of you dares to fight the Dutch!"

As soon as he said this, the court fell into silence, and the three princes immediately sneered, "What! Does anyone dare?"

Xiao Wenxuan frowned when he heard this. There was always no formal navy in the country of Da Yu. If the navy was only the king of Chu, the king of Wei and the king of Yan. ’

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

It's just that he knew that King Wei couldn't do things that King Chu couldn't do, and now the three princes' reproaches made all the ministers speechless, and he was also dull.

"Could it be that no one in the entire Great Yu country can fight the Dutch?" Xiao Wenxuan asked similarly.

The third prince said at this time: "Father, King Qi's fief is also facing the sea. King Qi can drive away the barbarians, but it may not be impossible to drive away the Dutch. It is better to let King Qi try."

"It's ridiculous that Qi's fief has only been stable for two years. Now how come the warships fight the Dutch." Fiji said: "The three princes, now the King of Chu has been defeated, and now it is the unfair treaty proposed by the Dutch."

"Exactly, now the Dutch, through the king of Chu, asked the emperor to exempt the Kingdom of Great Yu from taxes from the Dutch, and open the six coastal cities as trading points, and at the same time not levy taxes on Dutch goods. This unfair treaty is the king of Chu. 'S fault."

"Yes, what do you say to the third prince!"

"..."

Chaos in the hall suddenly became a mess.

The three princes looked more and more ugly. This time the Dutch defeated the King of Chu and demanded that the whole country of Chongqing become the most favorable country for the Dutch like Chu. This is no longer a matter of Chu, but of the entire country of Chongqing. .

Now that the imperial court has just got rid of the barbarians' tribute, and now it is facing such a shameful treaty, this contradiction will naturally concentrate on King Chu.

"Father, for the present plan, we can only temporarily agree to the request of the Dutch. Nowadays, there is no navy in the country that can defeat the Dutch. If they do not agree, the Dutch will continue to harass the coast." The third prince hesitated.

When Luo Quan heard this, he immediately said angrily: "The emperor, don't, Da Yu has just defeated the barbarians, how can they suffer such humiliation now? King Chu’s ship has only lost one-tenth of it. With the strength of fighting again, let the king of Chu continue to fight the Dutch, and at the same time let the kings of Wei and Chu cooperate to attack the Dutch."

Xiao Wenxuan frowned. He looked at the three princes and the courtiers who were angry. He said, "Don't quarrel anymore. I can discuss this matter again. Is there anything else? If not, just leave the court. Got it."

At this time, Fiji came out and said: "The emperor, the minister has a happy event."

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

Fiji said: "The emperor, recently there was something called potatoes from the Qi king's fief. This kind of thing tastes good. Now Changan is sold by many merchants. I don't know if the emperor has eaten it."

"Hahaha, I have been eating for the past two days. King Qi ordered me to send some to me and explained how to eat it. I have never tasted this kind of thing. I never thought that the fried potato fries are quite right for me. Appetite."

Speaking of this, Xiao Wenxuan's mood became happier, and only King Qi among the princes could make him happy.

Fiji smiled, "The minister also ate some. The taste is really extraordinary, but it is said that the potato comes from overseas and was snatched by the king of Qi from barbarians."

"Snatched it?" Xiao Wenxuan was taken aback.

"Yes, Your Majesty, it is said that King Qi sent three warships to the South Seas and sank the foreign barbarian warships in the South China Sea. It is said that these barbarians and the Dutch came from the same place." Fiji said.

"Oh? There is this matter?" Xiao Wenxuan didn't know at all~www.wuxiaspot.com~ Fiji nodded, "This is a funny thing that the little girl said to the minister when she wrote her letter. I didn't expect King Qi to be so brave at sea. ."

"So, can King Qi defeat the Dutch?" The third prince said with disdain.

"It's not necessarily impossible, but the emperor. Qi Di has always lacked a shipbuilding workshop. If the court can help King Qi build a shipbuilding workshop, it is impossible for King Qi to do something at sea." Fiji said.

Fei Yue'er did write to him this time, but the content in the letter was instructed by Xiao Ming.

Upon learning that the King of Chu had been defeated, Xiao Ming asked Fei Yue'er to send the letter to Chang'an, taking this opportunity to let the court support the shipyard in Qingzhou.

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

Xiao Wenxuan's expression moved slightly, but he couldn't believe the king of Chu, and he couldn't believe the king of Wei now. Only Xiao Ming had the confidence, so he said: "Fei Zhongshu is reasonable. In any case, we absolutely cannot compromise with the Dutch this time."
