Bab 488: Chapter 288: I am Willing to Give Up the Position of Prime Minister_1

```

Great Wu Dynasty.

Li Zheng Palace.

The Martial Emperor sat on the Dragon Throne, casting a glance over the ministers in the great hall.

At that moment, a eunuch beside the Martial Emperor spoke up,

"All those with memorials to present, step forward; all others, withdraw from the court."

As the eunuch's voice faded, a minister stepped forward and said, "Your Majesty, now that the southeast is pacified, seigniors in various parts of Great Sum are expanding their forces. Great Sum is on the eve of disintegration. I believe we should redeploy our troops eastward. Once Great Sum descends into civil war, we shall attack."

No sooner had this minister finished speaking than another one interjected, "Now is the best opportunity to eradicate Great Sum. Once Great Sum falls, Great Wu will become unprecedentedly powerful, and Your Majesty will be the most meritorious emperor since the founding of the Great Wu Dynasty."
