It was a very young voice.

The official walked out, and all eyes were on him.

Dali Temple Shaoqing, Li Si!

As a jinshi in the same class, Xu Tiangang was promoted the fastest because of the emperor's grace, and Li Si was able to climb to this position today entirely by virtue of his own strength.

Li Si has obtained the inheritance and recognition of the Legalists, and has practiced the Xiezhi method. After being recommended by the Legalists, he has made steady progress.

He is also the leader of the Lu Party. He stood up at this moment and immediately confronted him, refuting Xu Tiangang's words.

Xu Tiangang's expression did not change, and he said lightly, "The treasury is empty, where can there be excess supplies?"

After a long campaign, Dayu's treasury has long been empty.

At the beginning of the war between the two dynasties, Da Yu had almost all of his family's possessions in Hulao Pass. Now that the Hulao Pass was broken, Dayu's treasury immediately seemed to be stretched.

Huge military spending has made the Ministry of Household miserable. The price of Imperial Capital has risen tenfold, and some medicinal materials have even become priceless.

Li Si has long been prepared: "The treasury is empty, but the four continents near the imperial capital are full of treasuries. As long as they are transferred out, the daily consumption of the army can definitely be maintained."

The Four Continents refers to the four continents distributed around the Imperial Capital. The area is vast and the land is vast, and the materials inside are sufficient to support the Qianlong Army's attack.

Xu Tiangang snorted coldly: "That's the lifeline of my family, and I can't take it out unless it's a last resort."

Li Si took a step forward and shouted loudly: "Our soldiers are fighting bloody battles ahead. The imperial court neither sends troops to support nor supplies assistance. Are we just letting us watch the soldiers die in vain!"

"They are the local army. Since they plan to send troops, they must prepare themselves! Everything depends on the imperial court, so what do they leave them to do!" Xu Tiangang said coldly.

As soon as these words came out, everyone felt extremely cold.

Officials from all over the country came to assist the imperial capital, but the imperial court treated them like this.

Although many of the officials here are not from the local army, they are also very concerned. I feel that this is indeed a bit too much for the imperial court to do.

"Master Xu, are you going to sit back and watch the front line lose!" Li Si said loudly.

Xu Tiangang's eyes froze, and he yelled loudly: "Li Si, do you have the right to speak here? I have any decision, should I still report to you? Just take care of your Dali Temple, the overall situation of the imperial court is not a scholar like you. It's easy to talk about."

Li Si, however, was not overwhelmed by Xu Tiangang's aura, but turned his head and said, "Lord Shoufu, what do you think?"

Yang Shouyi, who was the chief assistant of the cabinet at that time, had gray beard and gray hair.

Yang Shouyi was a former minister of the previous dynasty, and he was able to take the position of the first assistant entirely because of his rich experience and deep qualifications.

The court meeting was already in full swing, but the first assistant never said a word.

His pale eyebrows trembled slightly, and then he cupped his hands towards Zhao Yuanyan and said, "Listen to the emperor."

Many military attaches present frowned, and the first assistant seemed to have no intention of participating in the dispute between them.

Zhao Yuanyan sat on the dragon chair, his eyes swept over everyone present, and then fell on Li Si.

"Li Si, I heard that you came from Yuding Academy, and you have a good relationship with Lu Yu." Zhao Yuanyan laughed.

This seemingly frivolous sentence caused many people present to break out in a cold sweat.

There is a gap between the emperor and Lu Yu, which is well known. Zhao Yuanyan talked about Lu Yu at this time, which contained deep meaning.
