So as soon as Lord Xu sat down, the court official stood up and said, "Your Majesty, although Lord Xu's congratulations are heavy, they may not be the most heavy gift today. The eldest prince has not presented the congratulations yet. I wonder if the eldest prince will bring you greater surprises?"

Everyone knows that Gao Yuanshang has been mediocre recently, and his power position has fallen into a disadvantage. He finally waited for the task of recruiting soldiers, but he didn't know whether it was God who was messing with others or his bad luck. This year's military and horses were extremely difficult to recruit.

At this time of year, at least tens of thousands of people are recruited, and it is even close to the end of the recruitment. However, less than 20,000 people have signed up this year, and there are even fewer war horses. It is said that the food and grass shortages are caused by drought, so the horses cannot meet the physical conditions of war horses.

In addition, the Yongfu Palace has frequently had disagreements in concubines and the imperial heirs have been repeatedly assassinated. Such bad phenomena are the most taboo thing in the palace, so he has already left a bad image in the minds of court officials. If someone provokes and instigates him, there will definitely be no good sign.

Because Gao Yuanshang did not answer in time, another court official stood up and said, "It has been a while since the eldest prince recruited soldiers and horses. I don't know when this recruitment will end?"

Gao Yuanshang knew that their signs were aimed at him, and he was not in a hurry to answer, because he wanted to know how many people were secretly bribed.

However, he did not wait for more people to get involved. Seeing that he was speechless, Gao Jin helped Gao Yuanshang to smooth things over, so he casually said: "You guys don't mention it. I forgot about this matter. I wonder how the eldest prince is recruiting now?"

Gao Yuanshang could not avoid talking at this time, so he stood up and said respectfully: "Brother, due to the drought last year, many people's food harvests have been reduced, so the shortage of war horses is relatively serious. As for the number of people joining the army, it has also been a surprising decline this year. However, the sons are rushing all their efforts to actively join the army, striving to usher in a prosperous future for our dynasty."

Gao Yuanyi stood up and said, "The prosperity of thousands of years cannot be achieved by just talking casually. Now the emperor cannot recruit soldiers. How dare you ask where the prosperity of thousands of years comes?"

Gao Yuanshang's momentum was a little cold and arrogant. He did not believe that Gao Yuanshang could win credit for this mistake.

"The meaning of King Yong is that I don't want to recruit troops?" Although Gao Yuanshang's attitude was not much better, he was slightly more majestic than Gao Yuanyi's coldness and arrogance.

Gao Yuanyi curled the corner of his mouth with a smile. Naturally, he couldn't lose his superiority in public, so he nodded and said, "I don't dare. I just think that there is a shortage of troops and horses. We can find ways to avoid it together, but hiding the facts and forging the truth is not the style of the emperor."

Gao Yuanyi was obviously implying that Gao Yuanshang had something to hide, and he must have come prepared, and Gao Yuanshang was meaningless. Since it was supposed to come, he could only face it with a normal heart. So he was not angry or annoyed, but said calmly: "Your Majesty Yong may say something directly, why bother here without any trouble."

"Please forgive me for my courage. What the emperor said just now is shortage of war horses. Before that, I clearly stated that the war horses outside the Great Wall are strong and strong, and they are all brave and tall. They also say that they are ready for our Northern Dynasties to use. Is it true that the emperor is not aware of this?"

Everyone in the court was very clear about the details of this matter. Gao Yuanyi undoubtedly had something else to say. He believed that Gao Yuanshang also guessed that he could use his intention.

"Although the war horses outside the Great Wall are good, they are far away from Taiyuan. If you buy horses outside the Great Wall, the horses will lose their strength and their momentum will also weaken. Instead of buying war horses with declining strength, why don't we carefully cultivate the horses around us, at least we can give ourselves a guarantee."

How could Gao Yuanshang not know about this? But what he said was a large part of his concern, and a small part was his conceited mentality and he was unwilling to ask Gao Yuanyi for help. If he went to Gao Yuanyi to negotiate to buy a horse from the West, in the end, his contribution would be monopolized by Gao Yuanyi, how could he be willing to do so?

Gao Yuanyi asked relentlessly: "What is the so-called guarantee of the emperor?"

"Of course, it is to train the horse until it is full of energy, and then go into the army to train it into a war horse." Although Gao Yuanshang answered quite relaxedly, the moment he said it, he regretted his rash answer.

"I dare to ask the emperor where there is so much food and grass?" Gao Yuanyi seemed to be waiting for his answer, because Gao Yuanshang said it clearly just now that the horse is thin and invisible because of the drought. If Gao Yuanshang wants to tame the horse, food and grass must be the most critical step.

Of course, this is the problem that Gao Yuanshang is most worried about, but he has already taken advantage of the loopholes, so he naturally has nothing to say.

At this time, Lord Xu said: "Emperor, what King Yong said is very true. I also believe that recruiting troops this time is difficult. If the eldest prince is not competent, I hope to give this important task to other capable people earlier. Don't delay my long-term plan of the Northern Dynasties."

Gao Jin must be facing a dilemma. He could not take Gao Yuanshang's face and take him down. Today, someone said he wanted to give up his sovereignty, and someone would submit a complaint in the future and force him to give up his position as crown prince, so Gao Jin could not start this.

But everyone was obviously standing on Gao Yuanyi's side, and Gao Yuanyi's analysis was somewhat reasonable. Of course, he could not ignore Dali and act too partially.

When Gao Jin was in a dilemma in the main hall, Gao Yuankang stood up and said, "Father, my son-in-law thinks that the emperor has always been experienced in recruiting troops, but the situation this time is not good, resulting in a shortage of troops. My son-in-law has a suggestion, don't you know whether to talk about it or not?"

For Gao Jin, Gao Yuankang's timely appearance was undoubtedly to resolve the difficulties. He also hoped that Gao Yuankang could have better countermeasures, so he said: "If you have something to do, you might as well say it bluntly."

"My son believes that the emperor is familiar with the recruitment situation, and King Yong is familiar with the channels for buying horses. Mr. Chen suggests that it is better to hand over the recruitment to the emperor, and the war horses will be fully responsible. In this way, wouldn't it be the best of both worlds?" Gao Yuankang's intention was that the chief was to help Gao Jin to rescue the siege, and it was important to leave a good impression on him. Secondly, it seemed to resolve the discord among them, but he obviously also favored Gao Yuanyi.

Because the complex recruitment matters are nothing more than to manage some details. In the end, Gao Yuanyi's war horse will return so that Gao Yuanshang can report his life. Therefore, no matter which aspect, Gao Yuanyi is a key figure in this matter.

Gao Jin also analyzed Gao Yuankang's intentions thoroughly. Although he had ulterior motives, his suggestions were the best solution in the confrontation between the two. So Gao Jin also said with satisfaction: "Lin Wang is worthy of being a talent in both wisdom and courage. Such a beautiful method is only lingering in a moment, and he can be said to be out of the blue."

"The father has ruined my son's memory. Even if the son's memory is Qinghe, he can only flow under the blue sky." Gao Yuankang spoke in a humble tone. He compared himself to the Qinghe. Gao Jin was the blue sky, so how dare he compare with the blue sky.

Gao Jin was also very satisfied with Gao Yuankang's metaphor, so he pursed his lips slightly, and then said coldly: "Just follow the advice of King Lin. I wonder if the eldest prince and King Yong have any objections?"

Of course, Gao Yuanyi got what he wanted, so he said first: "The son is based on the order of his father and there is no objection."

Seeing that Gao Yuanshang had no answer, even if he was unwilling to accept it, he still hoped that he could care about his family and not care about the merits of small and unspeakableness. So he turned his gaze to Gao Yuanshang, who was expressionless, and asked again: "Does the eldest prince have something to say?"

Gao Yuan is still on the verge of the waves. If he shows any dissatisfaction at this time, everyone will probably take the opportunity to siege him. Therefore, he still pays attention to the principle that those who know the times are heroes. Besides, taking a step back does not mean that he will retreat step by step. A temporary loss does not mean that he will forever be patient.

So he nodded generously and said, "My son is obeying the order of his father."

"It's settled at this time, let's sit down." Gao Jin finally escaped from a tangled dilemma. However, this time he was lucky enough to escape. He didn't know how many such unbearable scenes he would face in the future.

At this time, in order to resolve the atmosphere, the queen sang and said, "Sing and dancing."

As the singing and music sounded, the dancers started to dance in a stunning way, but the people they admired had no intention of beauty. Some people even put their bodies and minds into the spirits and drink happily alone.

For example, Gao Yuanshang seemed to be admiring Meilun's singing and dancing, but he kept pouring his belly with a glass of strong wine. While he was still awake, he analyzed again that the prejudice of everyone towards him was nothing more than that Gao Yuanyi's power has increased greatly and he has a heavy army in his hand. In addition, he has become more wings after taking over the Great Wall this time. Those snobbish villains will naturally surrender to him.

Song Anle occasionally observed Gao Yuanshang's drinking alone, but she couldn't help. Knowing that Gao Yuanshang was angry, how could she bear to let him hurt himself?

When Gao Yuanshang poured the wine cup and was about to pick it up, Song Anle grabbed his arm in time and gave him a gratifying smile. However, Gao Yuanshang curled the corner of his mouth helplessly and poured the wine in his hand into his belly.

Song Anle couldn't bear to see him so sad, and she didn't want to stay in such a depressing atmosphere, so she quietly left the hall and came to the small flower platform in the courtyard to breathe the comfortable air.

Gao Yuanyi came to her for some reason. Because he was paying attention to Song Anle's every move, he found an opportunity to follow her when she left.

Song Anle noticed someone approaching, but she ignored it and identified the smell of the person coming. She knew that it was not Gao Yuanshang, and of course other people would not come to socialize with her for no reason, of course, except Gao Yuanyi.
