It is estimated that any person who is familiar with the bureaucratic team of the Dongmu Empire can easily recognize the identities of these people, one is the military and political minister of the empire - Lu Zhuo, the other is the generalissimo of the empire - Oster, and the other is the envoy of the Qianhe Empire who is well-known in the Dongmu Empire.

After a few people sat down humbly to each other. Li Yuan began to go up, and the guards around him changed the tea on the table for a few times, and then said slowly.

I'm sure you heard a rough idea of what you just thought when you were inside, and I don't know what you think.

After hearing Li Yuankai say this, the military and political minister of the empire, who was also that Lu Zhuo, said with a smile.

"Just now a few of us also listened to a rough idea, discussed, exchanged each other's opinions, and in the end, we agreed that this matter is not a trivial matter after all, and for those who have not replied to the minister in time, they have no value in living in this world, and it is better to make a decision immediately. ”

After listening to Lu Zhuo's words, Li Yuankai took a look at the generalissimo of the empire, Oster, and the prime minister from the Qianhe Empire, who was known as the "treacherous fox". It's just that the latter two are still very calmly sipping tea, as if they have nothing to do with themselves, and they don't care what the two of them will talk about.

After Li Yuankai took a sip of tea, he said softly, "Actually, Brother Lu's suggestion is also what I envisioned, these people staying by their side will become our henchmen sooner or later, it is better to solve them as soon as possible, and then make reasonable arrangements, or smoothly annex their industries, so that our respective forces can also be further improved, and when the final incident comes, it will be more handy." ”

When Li Yuankai said these words, everyone listened carefully, although they didn't talk too much, but they knew that they had understood their respective thoughts, and it was time to make a final decision.

After Li Yuankai finished speaking, he saw that the rest of the people had no other opinions, so he continued to talk lightly about the next plan.

Time passed quickly, basically Li Yuankai was talking alone, and the rest of the people just listened quietly, or nodded in agreement from time to time, and the atmosphere was very harmonious.

"That's right, Brother Qiqian, this time I also hope that you can bring the situation here back to your majesty, maybe our cooperation will be temporarily terminated, because we didn't expect such a thing to happen, the original idea was to focus on the prince of Ji, and then, some more operations will be very smooth, but now that something like this has happened, if we want to start the incident smoothly, then it will inevitably take a lot of effort, I'm afraid it will take a while. ”

However, the envoy from the former Qianhe Empire, after hearing this, said with some disapproval.

"Prime Minister Li, this is nothing, in fact, when I came to the Dongmu Empire, our Majesty had specially told me and gave me some plans to deal with emergencies, although these things happened to the second prince, which also made us very sad, but, don't hide it from you, this matter is actually within the scope of our Majesty's consideration, because there is some basis for some previous cooperation. Our Majesty has made a special promise that if you really decide to finally start an incident, your Majesty can send troops to help you complete the great cause more smoothly. ”

Hearing Zha Qian say this, Li Yuan was a little bored and unhappy in his happiness, but he didn't reply directly, and still listened quietly. He believed that there must be some price to pay for doing this, because it was impossible for pie to fall from the sky.

"Of course, after all, we still belong to two countries, we are both loyal to the king, uh, no, I am loyal to the king, if our Qianhe Empire helps you to obtain the throne this time, we hope that the two sides can conclude an alliance to jointly resist foreign enemies, and if there is a rebellion in each other's countries, we can help each other and jointly calm all kinds of internal and external troubles, I don't know what Prime Minister Li Cheng thinks. ”

Li Yuan picked up the teacup and took a sip gently, and then said slowly.

"Brother Qian, nothing has been determined now, and I can't give you a clear answer, but I can personally assure you here that if the great cause is accomplished, there will definitely not be any big problem in concluding an alliance between our two countries, after all, the military strength of the countries on the mainland is basically the same as each other, and if our two countries reach an alliance of common advance and retreat, it will be very beneficial to any of our countries. ”

Hearing Li Yuankai say this, Zha Qian was still a little regretful, but it was only a little, because he was quite satisfied with being able to achieve such a result, perhaps, it can be said that in fact, achieving such a result was already a little beyond his imagination, because if he didn't know the details of each other, the bargaining chip that might start the negotiation was the agreement obtained now, so he didn't know how much he would be cut off until he finally negotiated?

Zha Qian picked up a cup of tea, held it in both hands, and said with a smile to Li Yuankai.

"Okay, now that I have Brother Li's words, I can go back to my life, I believe that our majesty will be very satisfied when he hears Brother Li's reply, no, it should be said that he will be very satisfied when he hears the future emperor of the Dongmu Empire, and I hope we will cooperate happily with each other. ”

Seeing that Tsu Qian raised a glass of tea to himself, Li Yuankai also picked up the teacup and saluted in the direction of Tsu Qian, and at the same time, from the beginning, Lu Zhuo and Soros, who had basically been silent, also followed the example of the two and toasted each other with tea to congratulate each other.

"The cooperation is pleasant, and I seem to have seen it now, a new era is opening on the mainland, and her brilliance will be unstoppable by any country on the mainland. ”

"Of course, Brother Li, a new era will be ushered in between our two countries, and when all the joints are successfully completed, this entire continent will be the home of our two empires. ”

"Hahaha, Brother Tsubahaha said well, come, let's have another drink, but unfortunately now is not the best time, otherwise I will definitely prepare a good wine and have a drink with Brother Tsuba. ”

"Haha, I believe that this opportunity is not far away, and when that time comes, I will invite Brother Li, Brother Lu, and Brother Suo to go to the imperial capital of our Qianhe Empire together and swim for a while, which will also allow me to be a little more suitable as a landlord. ”

"Haha, that's nature. ”

A few people drank tea, as happy and bold as drinking, and soon, a few people basically finalized the final plan, and then took advantage of the night to quietly leave the prime minister's mansion and disappear at the end of the street.

At this time, it was close to dawn, but it was also this time when it was the darkest time of the day, and now the entire imperial capital was in a deep sleep, and the bright moon hanging in the sky was already a little dim, and the entire imperial capital was still pitch black, and the silence was a little terrifying.

At this time, in the original secret room of the Prime Minister's Mansion of the Dongmu Empire, three more figures quietly gathered together.

And these three figures are the military and political ministers of the empire and the generalissimo of the empire who left two hours ago, and the prime minister of the empire, Li Yuankai, who should have rested and gone to bed a long time ago.

Li Yuankai sat in the first place, Lu Zhuo and Soros were separated on both sides, and Li Yuankai's voice was a little hoarse.

"Both, I saw that you basically didn't speak when you discussed it before, and I knew that you must have other thoughts that you hadn't said, and now there are no outsiders here, and the whole space is under my surveillance, so you can rest assured that you can say anything now. ”

Now the whole secret room was not brightly lit as before, but only a set of candles the size of beans were lit, and when the candles spilled on the faces of several people, they looked a little dim.

"Do we really want to carry out what Tsubaqian said before? You must know that Tsubaqian is known as a treacherous fox, and we may not gain any advantage by cooperating with him. ”

"Yes, yes, although I'm just the commander of an army, we often use some tactics like Infernal Affairs in battle, and I don't think this person is so easy to get along with. ”

After Li Yuankai listened to the words of the two of them, he just smiled slightly.

"Well, I thought something was going on, and it made you two so nervous that you two came looking for me again at this very moment. Li Yuankai covered his mouth and yawned, "I told you before, except for a very small number of people, I basically talk about people and talk nonsense, the reason why I said that with Qi Qian, is nothing more than to temporarily stabilize him, and then use the force behind him to complete our rule over the empire, and when we completely control the Dongmu Empire, the Qianhe Empire is such a divided empire, large and small forces fight each other, and the warlords are divided and ruled, will we still be afraid of them?" Maybe when the time comes, the current Qianhe Empire will become a new territory of the Dongmu Empire. ”

"It's not wrong for you to say this, but this person is definitely not to be taken lightly, and it is inevitable that we will think like this, who knows if people will stab us in the back when we are at the most critical point in our journey, and then we will not only minimize the threat to him, but it is even possible that he will be able to bite us back. ”

"Brother Lu, what you said is not unreasonable, therefore, I will deliberately stimulate those ministers before, and then, in the future, take the opportunity to take over their family's industry, don't look at these ministers, usually look like we are looking at the horse, but they secretly actually have a lot of resources, far more than what they see on the surface, as long as we secretly control their power, then, we can succeed in one fell swoop, and the probability of overthrowing the empire's rule will rise to eighty percent or even ninety percent, and then find a way to improve the success rate, and then there is no need to rely on the power of the Qianhe Empire, I will do it in front of the Qianhe EmpireIt is only to fix his heart, to stabilize him, and I will say that before that only to stabilize him, and then, by some means, to wear down the vitality of their country, so that there is only good and no harm for us. ”

"Oh, I see. Lu Zhuo was also taken aback, he should have thought of it, because Li Yuankai would never do something indifferent, but what he did was generally profitable, and he was also very lucky, because the relationship between them was still very close, and the relationship between them was not a simple relationship of friends and interests, but a relationship of in-laws, which was much more iron than the general relationship, and there were not a few times of cooperation between each other over the years, so he would not worry that Li Yuankai would stab him in the back.

But even so, he also recognized Li Yuankai's ferocity again, although Li Yuankai said a lot to them, but there must still be something to hide, perhaps, the Qianhe Empire will be called a fox, but Li Yuankai of the Dongmu Empire is a portal hunter who specializes in restraining the fox.

"By the way, Lao Li, since we can think of this, do you think that Zha Qian will think of this," Soros, the generalissimo of the empire, seemed to have thought of something, frowned slightly, and asked Li Yuankai.

Li Yuankai pondered for a moment, and then replied slowly.

With his ingenuity, he must be able to guess, with his calculating heart, so even if he cooperates later, he will definitely leave some back. However, even if he stays behind, we don't have the slightest need to be afraid, on the contrary, he will have to be involved in this matter. ”

"Oh, why do you say that?"

"Originally, I really didn't need to say these things, because in fact, I was still one of the participants in these things, but now that the prince has happened to him, the probability of Dongmu Huangpu's successful promotion to the prince has been greatly improved, if he becomes the prince, and even, one day becomes the monarch of the empire, then, he will definitely take the opportunity to thoroughly investigate the matter of Concubine Xian, if the matter of Concubine Xian is thoroughly investigated, then the person who will be persecuted in the end will only be Qianqian. ”

"Concubine Xian, oh, I remember, she seems to be the mother of Dongmu Huangpu, but she didn't die because of some accident, but you say so?"

"Heh, do you really think it's some simple accident? In fact, if someone really made up their minds to investigate at that time, they would still be able to find out some clues, but why they didn't find out, it was because I was one of the main people who led the case at the time, and those things that were found out were still in my hands until now, if, yesterday, that kid didn't know what to do and made me anxious, then I don't mind telling this evidence to be released, I believe it is enough for him to drink a pot, and I believe that when the time comes, even if he is favored in the Qianhe Empire, as the monarch of a country, it is impossible for a dispensable minister to go to war with another empire。 ”
