"Zhuguo~~" Zhao Chang Tang refused again, immediately lengthened his voice, and persuaded worriedly: "The so-called matter has urgency, and at this moment, in the face of the gradually spreading fire, it is necessary and completely possible to make a little flexibility.

The fire continued to spread, and at this time, only the army outside the city could quickly dispatch to rescue the fire, and other methods were obviously not as fast as the army was called. ”

After that, Zhao Chang said compassionately: "That's all I have to say, and I hope that Zhuguo will think twice." ”

When Tang Yu heard this, he thought more and more in his heart that Zhaochang's intentions were wrong.

"Nope." Tang Mo shook his head and said, "Without the king's order, you can't mobilize the army." ”

"Alas~" Zhao Chang sighed suddenly, and then looked at the prince with an anxious face and said: "Prince, look, Zhuguo this..."

Saying that, Zhao Chang arched his hand and said: "Prince, please ask the prince to be the master." ”

"This..." The prince looked at Zhao Chang, who was asking for his life, and then at Tang Yu, who was extremely resolute, and suddenly fell into a dilemma.

As Zhao often says, mobilizing the army at this time is indeed the fastest and safest way.

However, the words of the governor were still ringing in his ears, and he also knew in his heart the danger of this fire.

If he is now working with Zhao Chang, who opposes the law change, to put pressure on Tang Wu of the Pillar State and force Tang Wu to hand over his military power, then... Once his father is forced out of the Black Emperor Temple, then he, the prince, will definitely not be able to eat and walk around.

At this time, Qu Yuan saw that the prince was in a dilemma, and immediately spoke: "Prince, the minister thought that the fire that only burned last night, although it has spread, but it has not yet reached the level where the army needs to be dispatched.

Moreover, the fire spread, and the people affected were the surrounding people, so the minister thought that he only needed to recruit the people near the fire, and asked the people in the southeast and southeast sides of the city to give one person from each household, and it would only take half a day to gather tens of thousands of people.

With these people, it is enough to quickly extinguish the jungle fire outside the city. ”

Speaking of this, Qu Yuan smiled and said, "Maybe by tonight, the fire outside the city has been extinguished." ”

When Zhao Ju heard this, he immediately agreed: "Good, prince, the old minister also thinks that the strategy of the left disciple is feasible. ”

At this time, Zhao saw the prince's willful move, and immediately opened his mouth to object: "Prince, this is a word that will bring disaster to the country, and the prince must not listen to it." ”

"Why?" The prince was stunned for a moment, and then looked at Zhao Chang hesitantly.

Such a quick and convenient way is not used, but he has always been entangled with the army, does he really plan to launch a military campaign?

At this time, Zhao Chang saw the hesitation in the prince's eyes, but his face did not change, and he arched his hand and said: "Prince, not long ago, the king of Yinling still recruited the people for his drive because he knew that the king had ordered him to recuperate. As a result, this matter was revealed, and the king was furious, and he seized the title and demoted him, and cut down the land and the people as a punishment.

Now Yin Ling Jun is still staying in the city and has not left, the king has just sacrificed to the black emperor and is still praying for the country, the king Chunchun has been teaching endlessly, the prince, you are now recruiting the people.

If you know, they will say that you are here to rescue the fire, but if you don't know, then they don't know how to arrange you, prince. ”

The prince was stunned for a moment, then his face changed, and then he looked at Zhao Chang and Qu Yuan, who proposed to recruit the people, with palpitations.

Yes, my father just reaffirmed the national policy of resting with the people, if he recruited the people to fight the fire now, what would the six monarchs who were still in the city think and do.

They will definitely besiege him in groups, and then avenge the Yin Ling King.

Even, most of the Jianghuai feudal monarchs who have not yet recruited the people will also take advantage of this matter to recruit the people.

At that time, even if his father didn't want to punish him, he probably wouldn't be able to do it.

Thinking about it, Prince Heng immediately glanced at Qu Yuan coldly, then shook his head and refused: "The matter of recruiting the people, forget it." ”

"Prince!" Seeing the prince's indifferent attitude, Qu Yuan immediately bowed his hand and said: "The so-called power is urgent, and the rescue of the fire is urgent, even if it is a temporary conscription of the people, it is okay." ”

When Zhao Chang heard this, he didn't wait for the prince to answer, and he also arched his hand: "Prince, the so-called power is urgent, and the rescue of the fire cannot be delayed, even if the army is temporarily mobilized, it is okay." ”

The prince's face turned dark when he heard this, these two suggestions were not very good, one was to push him into the fire pit, and the other was to push him into the abyss, all of them were not good.

At this moment, Prince Heng suddenly understood a truth.

His father asked him to watch quietly in the court, to see more, to listen and think more, to talk less and to do less and interfere, not only to teach him how to deal with state affairs, but also to let him observe the minister's mind more.

This lesson must have been summed up after years of setbacks after my father ascended the throne.

It is no wonder that my father always said that the way of the king lies in balance, not only to balance the monarch and the nobility, but also to balance the nobility and the people, and even between the government and the opposition, within the nobility, among the people, and even including the price of land and so on.

The way of a king lies in balance, and the way of governing the country lies in governing a large country and cooking small fresh.

At this moment, Prince Heng felt that he had understood, and he still sighed silently in his heart, but fortunately, it was not too late for him to understand.

Thinking about it, Prince Heng ignored Zhao Chang and Qu Yuan, but looked at Zhao Ju and said, "What does Ling Yin think?" ”

Zhao Ju glanced at the prince with half-squinted eyes, then opened his eyes and looked at Qu Yuan and Zhao Chang, and then responded: "Prince, the old minister agrees with Zuo's words and recruits the people. ”

Saying that, Zhao Ju arched his hand and said: "Prince, the fire is urgent, although it is necessary to recruit the people, but the people will understand." After all, this is only a day or two of conscription. ”

The crown prince nodded, then looked at Zhu Guo Tang and asked, "What does Zhu Guo think?" ”

Tang Mo said resolutely: "Prince, without the royal life tiger talisman, the army cannot be moved. ”

Prince Heng still nodded, then glanced at Sima Jingque, who had not spoken, and asked, "Sima, I don't know what Qing thinks." ”

When Jing Que heard that the prince Heng took the initiative to ask, a wave of emotion flashed in his heart. At this time, after he saw that the prince asked Ling Yin Zhaoju and Zhuguo Tang Yu, he still asked him, Sima, who had a very low sense of existence, and he already knew the prince's intentions.

Then, Jing Que thought of his ten thousand private families in Hanbei, and his heart hurt again.

After a pause, Jing Que groaned: "Prince, the king's edict announcing recuperation has been announced throughout the country, and the king's handling of the unkind Yinling Jun is also known to the government and the opposition. Now if the prince issues an edict to recruit the people, even if it is only for half a day, it will be a hundred steps with fifty steps and a hundred steps, and the minister thinks that this matter is not feasible. ”

When the prince heard this, he nodded and said: "What Sima said is extremely true, it affects the people, and traps my father and the king in unkindness and unbelief, and this is not what I want." ”

Qu Yuan Tang was stunned when he heard this, and then quickly glanced at each other, and then looked at Zhao Chang Jingque's eyes full of vigilance.

On the other side, after Prince Zhaochang clearly expressed his attitude of refusing to recruit the people, he immediately surrendered his hand and asked, "Prince, please order the mobilization of the army." ”
