The study room of the Prince's Palace.
The cabinet's second assistant Zhou Chong, who had met with a setback in the Yangxin Palace, and the Minister of War Li Chenyuan, who had just raised their hands and pointed at the map on the long table, repeated to the prince what they had just said to the emperor.
The rhetoric is still that of suggesting sending troops to muddy the waters.
The two ministers hoped that the prince would persuade the emperor to send troops to aid the many small tribes outside the border and resist the invasion of the Khitan army.
"I understand all of what you said." The prince said calmly, "You all know what my father meant. It's not that we won't send troops, but we will wait until the Khitan and the united nomadic tribes have been fighting for a while, and then our Qi cavalry will make a concerted effort to completely wipe out the remnants of the Khitan."
