Chapter 158 The Purpose of the Parthian Empire’s Envoy! (6K) (Ch 158)

“To improve the social status of coroners.”
“Establishing a major in a new type of medical school.”
“Chen Huaixin…”
“He thinks so highly of the coroner?!”
Looking at the images deduced by the Jiantian Mirror.
Wang Qianhe’s face was full of confusion.
Of course he knows.
The coroner can better assist in solving the case.
But is it really necessary to offer such a major in school?
“If I can graduate from school.”
“That’s equivalent to serving as an official in the court!”
“Let the coroner obtain official status.”
“This has never happened before!”
Wang Qianhe really couldn’t understand.
even.
When he looked at the Minister of Justice Qu Wenduan.
It turned out that even Qu Wenduan had a look of surprise on his face, and he didn’t seem to understand why Chen Huaixin made such arrangements!
“Just a coroner.”
“When I need it.”
“Just find them again.”
“Why do you have to buy people’s hearts like this?”
Qu Wenduan frowned.
In his opinion.
Chen Huaixin’s approach, like improving the status of lawyers, is a strategy to win people’s hearts in order to better supervise local governments!
However, Chen Huaixin invested heavily in the coroner, and even allocated a precious school place to the lowly person who insulted the corpse!
This seemed unreasonable to him!
But Ji Changxi, one of the princesses, had already understood the meaning of Chen Huaixin’s actions.
“Because coroners and new-style medical schools have a lot in common.”
“The development of new medical schools is the development of coroners.”
“The progress of medical coroners is also the progress of new medical schools.”
“That’s why he decided to let the new medical school open a major in coroners.”
“It will not only promote the development of new medical schools and coroners, but also reduce the probability of wrongful convictions!”
Ji Changxi’s voice was very calm.
This suddenly made Wang Qianhe realize.
If so.
That does make sense.
“Just to allow a coroner to work as an official is still too shocking.”
Wang Qianhe breathed a sigh of relief.
However, the officials from the aristocratic families were still sneering and mocking, thinking that anyone could be an official in Yu State, even coroners could become an official, so the officials of Yu State didn’t look that good!
but.
Including Wang Qianhe.
But not many people would pay attention to them.
Because they all knew very well that the officials from the aristocratic families were still ridiculing Chen Huaixin only because they were angry.
As for the future Ji Changxi, not many people mentioned the new achievements he developed.
“after all.”
“The future Princess of the Four Emperors.”
“They all became the cornerstone of Yuguo.”
“Whatever is developed is normal.”
All the ministers knew very well that from then on, Ji Changxi’s heart would be entirely devoted to the Yu Kingdom.
Not to mention revenge for Chengguo, after she gave birth to a child for Chen Huaixin, she couldn’t even bear to hit him!
This is completely different from what she said at the beginning!
but.
Just when everyone was discussing the coroner’s affairs.
The picture deduced by the Jiantian Mirror made everyone stunned.
Even Ji Changling opened his eyes wide.
“Parthian Empire?”
“This country thousands of miles away.”
“Why did you send an envoy to ask for an audience?”
Ji Changling was a little confused.
Wang Qianhe frowned.
“It has only been half a year since that Buddhist monk appeared in the Parthian Empire.”
“That is, after the monk was taken away by the Catholic missionaries.”
“The Parthian Empire immediately sent envoys to Dayu?!”
Think of this.
Wang Qianhe’s expression suddenly changed.
because.
This means.
The Parthian Empire knew the exact location of Yu State!
“Be able to know the location of Yuguo.”
“That means…”
“It also knows where my Chengguo is?!”
…
[Parthian Empire?!]
【Hearing this name.】
[A trace of confusion flashed across the face of the Minister of Justice.]
【Because he had never heard of this country. 】
【but.】
【Chen Huaixin still looked calm.】
[“This country was mentioned in the information sent by those merchants.”]
【“Or rather.”】
[“Then we have come to the country at the end of the Western Region.”]
[“Merchants who trade with merchants from my country of Yu.”]
[“Most of them are from the Parthian Empire!”]
【”only……”】
[“Why did it suddenly send an envoy to ask for an audience?!”]
【Chen Huaixin pondered.】
【Although.】
【He was very interested in the Parthian Empire.】
【But he did not agree to meet the emissary. 】
【”after all.”】
【“This kind of thing.”】
【“Let the Ministry of Rites handle it.”】
【Chen Huaixin asked the guards to tell the Ministry of Rites.】
[He continued to discuss the matter of the coroner with the Minister of Justice.]
【A few days later.】
【At the court meeting. 】
[The Minister of Rites then told the envoy’s purpose in the court.]
[“You hope to unite with us and fight against the Roman Empire together?!”]
【Hearing the news.】
[The ministers were suddenly in an uproar.]
[This is the first time they have encountered a situation where another country came to them for help! ]
[After all, the small countries surrounding Yu Country were all completely subdued by Great Yu, and they all wanted to come here to serve as dogs. If they fought each other, they would also worry that Yu Country would blame them, so in the past few years, there has been a rare period of peace. ]
[Now a country suddenly appeared and called itself an empire, which is fine, but they actually wanted them to send troops to help them fight against the Roman Empire?! ]
【”snort!”】
【“It seems so.”】
[“This so-called Parthian Empire is just that!”]
[The tone of the Pinglu Jiedushi was very disdainful.]
[They are now looking forward to fighting with Rome, but the Parthian Empire, which is able to fight with them, is forced to ask for help! ]
[“Don’t say that. The envoy’s intention is to get us to fight together!”]
[“Haha, fighting together? It’s just a shameless way of saying it!”]
[“If they were not really unable to defeat the enemy, if they were not afraid of being defeated, why would they seek help from other countries!”]
[“Your Majesty, why don’t we agree to the envoy’s request? Being able to confront Rome first will also allow us to better understand the true strength of Rome’s military!”]
[“When Rome really shows up in the Western Regions in the future, we will know their whereabouts and be able to repel them completely!”]
【“…”】
[The generals looked at Chen Huaixin.]
[Although their words were full of contempt for the Parthian Empire, they were still very interested in the envoy’s purpose! ]
[It can fight against countries like Rome and can fight against countries with expeditionary capabilities. ]
[Even just thinking about it makes their blood boil! ]
[“If you agree, I will lead the Dayu Iron Cavalry to go there! The journey is long, which is suitable for our cavalry to arrive quickly and flatten the battlefield easily!”]
[“What’s the use of cavalry? Do you think that we infantrymen can’t march quickly? Our Dayu infantry phalanx may be able to sweep the enemy!”]
[“If we can reach them via the ocean or a large river, our navy can also go to fight!”]
【“…”】
[Before Chen Huaixin could speak.]
[These generals have already started fighting for it. ]
[After all, it’s no fun to bully the small countries around. ]
[If you want to fight, you have to fight this strong enemy with real weapons! ]
【But Chen Huaixin ignored them. 】
[He looked towards the Minister of Rites.]
[The Minister of Rites also continued to explain the reason very clearly.]
【only.】
【He continued to speak.】
[The faces of the court officials became more and more strange. ]
[“In other words, because the monks sent by Buddhism arrived in the Parthian Empire and were taken away by Roman Catholic missionaries, in order to resist possible attacks from Rome, the emperor of that country sent envoys, who traveled day and night for half a year to seek help from our country?!”]
[I didn’t even fight.]
[Just send an envoy to ask for help thousands of miles away! ]
[How weak is the Parthian Empire! ]
[Is this worthy of being called… an empire?! ]
[The ministers really don’t know what to say. ]
[The Minister of Rites continued, “Because the Parthian Empire had previously fought against Rome and was defeated in all of its previous battles, the soldiers were already afraid of fighting Rome.”]
[“So shouldn’t they continue to train soldiers? Shouldn’t they provide the army with better weapons? Instead, they immediately asked for help from other countries, hoping that we could help them?” The Minister of War frowned. ]
[He traveled thousands of miles to the Kingdom of Yu and presented a large amount of treasures just to seek an audience with the Great Yu Emperor.]
[It is enough to show that the Parthian Empire definitely has certain capabilities, and the country is also very wealthy, because those treasures are not something that a small country can afford! ]
[“The country has money, and merchants can come to the Western Regions to trade, but the army will be scared by other countries. I really don’t know what to say,” the Minister of War shook his head. ]
The Minister of Rites ignored his interruption and continued, “Before, the Roman Empire had been looking for the exact location of our Great Yu. Now that the Buddhist monk has been captured, the location of our Yu Kingdom is no longer a mystery.”
[“According to what the messenger said, when Rome knew that they were blocked by the Parthian Empire on their way to Dayu, they would definitely send troops to continue to occupy their country.”]
【“Even… destroying the country!”】
【The Minister of Rites told what he knew.】
[This made the court officials look at each other in bewilderment.]
【After a while. 】
【They finally figured it out.】
【The reason why this messenger came to ask for help! 】
[“In simple terms.”]
[“It is the geographical location of the Parthian Empire, which is between Rome and Dayu.”]
[“Are they worried that Rome will destroy their country in order to go to Dayu, so they just take the initiative and send envoys directly to our country of Dayu to ask for help?!”]
【After thinking through all this. 】
【Don’t even mention the generals. 】
[Even the civil officials showed disdain on their faces.]
【Worried about being beaten.】
【Fear of national destruction.】
[The first thought is not to recruit soldiers or to make the army stronger. ]
【Instead, they came to other countries to seek help! 】
[This is really…disgraceful! ]
【”simply.”】
[“We destroyed the Parthian Empire.”]
【“Then use it as your base.”】
【“Fight Rome again.”】
[Even the Prime Minister sighed and expressed such thoughts.]
[He was just joking, intending to mock the Parthian Empire.]
[However, after hearing these words, the eyes of the Minister of War and other generals suddenly brightened.]
[They all looked at the Prime Minister, their eyes seemed to be asking, is it true, is it true, can we really destroy the Parthian Empire? ! ]
[“Don’t think about it.”]
[“My Dayu treasury is not yet sufficient for a long expedition.”]
[“There are still expenses to be paid for domestic matters, big and small.”]
【The voice of the Minister of Revenue sounded at this time.】
【Although.】
【The treasury of Yu State is full. 】
【But there are many places to spend money! 】
【“Reform of the grassland garrison troops.”】
[“We may even need to use the national treasury revenues of the next few years to fill it in!”]
[“You think it’s that easy to save money, right?”]
[The Minister of Revenue glanced at the generals.]
【but.】
[At this time, the admiral said: “Don’t we have silver from Japan? If we add it together, we should be able to go on an expedition, right?”]
[“The cost of the reform of the grassland garrison troops includes this silver. If it weren’t for the silver from Japan, this reform would probably not be implemented!” The Minister of Revenue’s tone remained calm.]
【That is exactly the case.】
【Only the Prime Minister would feel that. 】
[The reform of the grassland garrison army even surpassed the cabinet system! ]
[Because it is not just about decentralizing power, but also involves a large amount of money and food investment, and even so, no one can guarantee that it will succeed! ]
[The generals did not understand the inside story. They just sighed helplessly after hearing that the proposal to capture the Parthian Empire could not be implemented.]
[“It’s a pity that Rome didn’t send an envoy. Otherwise, maybe we could ask them if they want to join forces to deal with the Parthian Empire. We can just flanke them from both sides!”]
[“Then let Rome pay for the expedition, right?”]
[“They can handle the Parthian Empire on their own, how could they possibly pay that much!”]
[“It’s better to agree to the proposal of the Parthian envoy. At least this way we can still fight against Rome!”]
【“…”】
【The generals are discussing.】
[The Minister of War looked at Chen Huaixin.]
He knows very well.
【If Your Majesty disagrees. 】
[No matter how much they suggest, it’s useless! ]
【Your Majesty has been thinking about something since he heard the Minister of Rites’s story.】
[This made the Minister of War feel a little hopeful: “Is your Majesty still thinking about whether to conquer the Parthian Empire?!”]
【If your majesty orders. 】
【Then military spending will no longer be a problem! 】
[He believes that Your Majesty has such ability! ]
【but.】
【To his disappointment. 】
[When His Majesty recovered from his thoughts, he did not mention the expedition to the Parthian Empire, but instead asked about the Minister of Revenue! ]
[“Can the national treasury spend part of the money to support a small army to go to the Parthian Empire?”]
[“It’s barely possible, but, Your Majesty, if you agree to the proposal of the Parthian envoy, then the military expenses should be borne by them!”]
[The Minister of Revenue reminded.]
【That’s why. 】
[The ministers of Yu State look down on the Parthian Empire – they are rich enough to support the expeditions of other countries’ armies, but they can’t even build their own army! ]
[“If we use their money, then what’s the difference between our Yu army and mercenaries? Do we still have to obey their orders? What kind of rubbish country can hire our Great Yu army?!”]
【Chen Huaixin snorted coldly.】
[This immediately made the Minister of Revenue understand that this matter was not about whether to bear the expenses or not, but about the name of the army! ]
[If Yu Jun accepted the offer once, then if there are other countries doing the same thing in the future, will Yu Jun have to accept the offer again? ]
[“So is our Yu Army an army that defends our country, or a mercenary army that fights for others?!”]
【This is a very serious position issue! 】
【Even if it’s just once. 】
[It is likely to happen more times in the future! 】
[Because the bottom line is lowered again and again! ]
【”and.”】
【”His Majesty.”】
[“He wanted to go to war with Rome.”]
[“Otherwise, there is no need for him to do such a thing as spending his own money to join the army and getting no benefit!”]
[The Minister of Revenue thought to himself.]
[He silently estimated how large an expedition the current treasury reserves could support! ]
【As for dissuasion? 】
【Don’t say it’s Your Majesty. 】
[The looks from those generals might kill him! ]
[“Unfortunately, this is all for the sake of war, and there is no profit in it. I’m afraid that this expenditure of the national treasury will never be recovered.”]
[The Minister of Revenue sighed.]
[But Chen Huaixin seemed to know what he was thinking about, so he continued to speak.]
[“This is not something that is completely without benefit.”]
[“Let’s not talk about whether we can bring the merchants with us.”]
[“It’s unclear whether the Parthian Empire will make any response.”]
【“Just tell me what Rome is up to.”】
[“It’s not that easy to do!”]
【After hearing these words. 】
[The ministers were stunned.]
[The Minister of Revenue even looked towards His Majesty.]
【Chen Huaixin’s voice sounded again.】
【“I want to destroy such a wealthy country.”】
[“It’s not something that can be done in a short period of time.”]
【”perhaps.”】
[“They’re going to need some… help!”]
…
In the Golden Palace.
The appearance of envoys from the Parthian Empire.
Let all the ministers focus their attention on the Mirror of Heaven.
However.
The news that the Minister of Rites said.
This surprised many people.
“The purpose of the Parthian Empire sending envoys is to ask for aid to Yu Kingdom?”
“Because they were scared by the Romans, and because they were worried that their country would be destroyed by Rome because of their position.”
“So they want to ask for strong reinforcements and help from Yuguo to fight against Rome?”
“We don’t even dare to go to war with other countries anymore!”
“What a rubbish country this is!”
“…”
Many officials could no longer hold their temper.
Even if they are the inheritors of the country.
At a time when the country is in turmoil.
I didn’t even think about seeking help from other countries!
“perhaps.”
“This is the downside of vigorously developing business.”
“Although the Parthian Empire seems to be very wealthy, the weapons of the soldiers defending the city are also very sophisticated.”
“But it’s just… good-looking but useless!”
Ji Changling shook his head and said.
Before.
When the Parthian Empire appeared on the Mirror of Heaven.
She also speculated how strong the country’s military was.
It seems now.
I’m afraid they are not as good as the barbarians around Chengguo!
But Wang Qianhe did not relax at all!
“Although.”
“The Parthian Empire seems like a joke.”
“They are very rich but they dare not go to war with other countries.”
“But.”
“Its enemy is Rome!”
“It can’t defeat Rome, which is capable of expedition and wants to attack Yuguo!”
“Isn’t this normal?!”
Wang Qianhe thought in his heart.
Judging from the attitudes of previous Catholic missionaries.
The military power of Rome is absolutely powerful!
The surrounding countries in the same region were swept away by it, and it could also send expeditionary forces to occupy other countries!
This is almost equivalent to Yuguo with a different name!
“The Parthian Empire could not defeat Rome.”
“It doesn’t mean you can’t beat me, Chengguo!”
“Especially.”
“In this case.”
“I, Chengguo, am exceptionally weak!”
“I can’t accept losing even one game!”
Wang Qianhe’s expression was very solemn.
because.
The Parthian Empire knew the exact location of their inherited kingdom!
The merchants from the Parthian Empire who keep coming here to trade will pass on news about this place!
And what if one day, the emperor of the Parthian Empire, unlike the development in the Mirror of Heaven, suddenly wanted to take action against their Cheng Kingdom?
“We…it’s so hard to stop the terror!”
Wang Qianhe took a deep breath.
The financial resources of the Parthian Empire were sufficient to support their expedition.
Although this was just his guess, the probability of it happening was very low.
But as the prime minister of Chengguo, he has to take this possibility into consideration even if he is worrying too much!
“so.”
“Chen Huaixin is supporting the Parthian Empire this time.”
“Not only can it let Yuguo know the strength of the Roman Empire.”
“It also allows me to inherit the country and know what the Parthian Empire is like!”
This was the first time that Wang Qianhe felt so grateful to Chen Huaixin.
Even though the current time is almost twenty years away from the future, knowing what the Parthian Empire will be like so many years later can allow him to make some preparations!
As for Chen Huaixin’s refusal to accept military expenses from other countries and insisting on using support from the national treasury, he felt it was very normal. Otherwise, a future emperor might suddenly have a brainwave and make money by hiring Yu’s army!
This precedent must never be set!
He even listened to those officials from aristocratic families scolding Chen Huaixin for being hypocritical.
She clearly knew the drawbacks, but she pretended not to see them. He was too lazy to guess what she was thinking.
“but.”
“Chen Huaixin’s last words.”
“What does that mean?”
“He can’t be…”
“You want to help the Roman Empire conquer the Parthian Empire?!”
