"Alone?"

With that one word, the entire court of civil and military officials was shaken.

Everyone's gaze turned toward him.

If they had not misunderstood, this Prime Minister intended to go alone and drive back those countless barbarian tribes?

Of course, after their shock passed, their thoughts were no longer the same.

Concern surfaced on the faces of some ministers, but after those old nobles exchanged glances, their eyes flickered, and no one knew what they were thinking.

Bi Gan hurriedly said, "Prime Minister, you mustn't jest. These barbarians are savage, fierce, and strong beyond measure. They have never been civilized, eating raw flesh and drinking blood, and each can stand against ten. How could you repel the enemy alone?"

Lu Chuan smiled. It seemed there was a need to let this Wenqu Star witness the strength of Lord Lu, and let him know that he, the God of Wealth, was not only capable of scattering wealth and handing out money.

But the old nobles were immediately displeased when they heard Bi Gan's words, inwardly thinking, This Bi Gan is truly meddlesome.

You, Bi Gan, were of the royal clan, and your rank would not be affected, but you could not bite the hand that fed you and damage their interests, could you?

If Lu Chuan died this time, then this reform would naturally fail as well.

To them, Yin Shang's crisis was not important. Their own interests were above all else.

At worst, they still had surrender as a fallback.

An old noble, Senior Grandee Jin Cheng, submitted a memorial and said, "The Prime Minister's words are mistaken. Who does not know that the Prime Minister is peerless in both civil and martial matters, his martial skill so high that in all the world today, few could match him?"
