The ministers were silent at Qi Kan Tian's words.
They were all people who stood at the forefront and also responsible for the lives of so many people under them. So they understood Qi Kan Tian's words and knew very well that should a war broke out, the one who would suffer the most was actually the civilians.
Because they were the ones who stepped forward to fight on the frontline.
Some ministers cared for their people and didn't want this to happen while some other ministers didn't care too much for the people and only themselves.
It was also one of the reasons why there were conflicts on the court.
But in Qi Xi Kingdom, most of the ministers were people who truly cared for their people. Because they all become ministers when Qi Xi Kingdom was at its worst and they didn't get much benefit when they become a minister.
Yet, they still stepped forward.
Because they wished that Qi Xi Kingdom would be able to become better with their help. Even if it was only a little bit contribution, it was better than nothing.
"This is..." The Prime Minister heard Qi Kan Tian's words and murmured in a low voice with a sigh.
"I know that this might be our only chance, but at the same time, I don't think it's the best option for Qi Xi Kingdom," Qi Kan Tian said slowly. "We're not powerful enough, but it doesn't mean that we can do nothing for our survival, right?"
The ministers were silent.
They looked at each other and could only sigh.
Everyone knew very well what Qi Kan Tian wanted to do and they truly couldn't stop their Emperor. Qi Kan Tian was actually still in middle age as he was only in his late thirties. But his complexion looked much older than this.
This was because this Emperor had endured so much ever since he was young.
He became the Emperor when he was young and what awaited him was the ruined Qi Xi Kingdom due to the devastation of wars. The lands were lost, many people died, many resources were lost.
Everything was difficult.
Different from Emperor Yang Zhou who took over when Fei Yang Kingdom was at its strongest due to his grandfather's policy. What awaited Qi Kan Tian was a kingdom that was at its end.
From their glory to the end, it seemed to have happened overnight.
And Qi Kan Tian had no other choice but to be the one to shoulder everything on his young and small body.
"The court is over today." Qi Kan Tian sighed. "Please think about my words carefully."
The ministers could only obeyed and knelt down to Emperor Qi Kan Tian.
Slowly, the main hall was emptied. freёweɓnovel.com
