Xin Yanque was not in a hurry and waited quietly for Gu Xiujin to give him the answer, because he was very sure that there were not many people in the world who would not lie to the emperor, but one of them must be Gu Xiujin.

"Return to Your Majesty."

Gu Xiujin replied seriously: "It may take six years at a faster time, or ten years at a slower time."

"Six years?"

Xin Yanque was a little confused. He looked into Gu Xiujin's eyes and asked, "Why is the number six years?"

Gu Xiujin explained: "If I am not mistaken, what the Supreme Sage and General Lin Ye are planning in Northern Xinjiang is related to the Northern Expedition in the future."

"The Supreme Saint cannot give the people of Loufan a chance to recover, but no matter how great the chaos in this world is, five years will be the end of it."

"If the chaos cannot be calmed down, there will naturally be other ways to calm it down. For example, if Lou Fan cannot completely restore absolute rule, he will split into several smaller countries to restore order."

"This is a matter of internal strife. I think five years is a period that can end it, but the matter of foreign invasion is a different matter."

"Furthermore, if Dayu wants to gather the strength for the Northern Expedition, it will take at least five years, both in terms of money and troops..."

Speaking of this, Gu Xiujin looked at Xin Yanque and said, "I think that in five years at most, Dayu will make an expedition to the north. If everything goes well, in five years, General Lin Ye will be at the peak of his power, both in terms of wisdom and force."

"After the great chaos, Lou Fan could not withstand the great jade soldiers...and such a conquest should be done urgently????????????????????????????????????????

, we cannot give the Loufan people a long time. The faster the speed, the easier it will be for the Loufan people to accept the destruction of their country. The longer it is delayed, the heavier the will to resist."

"So I presume that the Northern Expedition plan formulated by the Supreme Sage and General Lin Ye is to attack and destroy Lou Fan within a year. At that time..."

Gu Xiujin smiled slightly and said, "Dayu is not short of money."

Xin Yanque burst out laughing after hearing this.

No matter how chaotic Loufan is, all the major families and tribes will be extremely rich. After the war, countless gold and silver treasures will flow back to Dayu from Loufan.

At that time, Dayu was indeed not short of money.

Gu Xiujin said: "I think that in normal times, it would be difficult for a scholar who has studied hard for ten years to be willing to become a teacher. After all, their chances of getting ahead are all in these ten years of studying hard."

"But at that time, Loufan was decided. If your majesty issued a decree to the world, anyone who has studied and taught in a rural village for two years can go to Loufan to serve as an official..."

Upon hearing this, Xin Yanque's eyes lit up.

Gu Xiujin continued: "There may be many people who are unwilling to go to such a far place to be an official. In comparison, they would rather stay in Dayu and be a gentleman with fragrant peaches and plums, which is also a good thing."

Xin Yanque suddenly sighed heavily and said, "I can't let you join the cabinet as a secondary assistant. After all, I am unwilling to do so."

Gu Xiujin leaned over and said: "Your Majesty can listen to these superficial words of the minister, so what is the difference between the minister and the minister who is already working in the office?"

He looked at the emperor and said solemnly: "I can talk more to His Majesty here. But when I get to the office, I'm afraid I will have to tie up my freedom."

After being silent for a long time, Xin Yanque nodded: "What you said is very reasonable, and what Ning Weimo said is also very reasonable. I don't have to leave a virtuous name in the annals of history, I just want to be remembered by future generations.

People say there is a bastard in the Xie family..."

"You send someone to call Ning Weimo... No, I will go there myself. Xiao Gu, ask someone to bring some herbal tea to dispel the fire. I will go to help the ministers to remove the fire now.

..."

He stood up and straightened his clothes.

"I don't have that much ability in this matter. If I push all the capable ministers to ruin... the Supreme Saint Lord will probably scold me when he comes back."

Gu Xiujin smiled and leaned over: "My lord, I obey your order."

After walking away, Xin Yanque turned around and asked Gu Xiujin: "Tell me, how angry are Ning Weimo and the others?"

Gu Xiujin replied in a very low voice: "Probably, that means he doesn't dare to scold directly."

Xin Yanque glared at him, and then laughed.

Gu Xiujin said in a sincere tone: "No one in the world can be as broad-minded as your Majesty."

Xin Yanque: "What a flattery!"

Take long strides.
