Chapter 122: Shikoku Strength (Asking for Pink Tickets)
That's a great answer! Neither denying nor overemphasizing the past, but looking back and reflecting on the present state of mind. Emperor Guangzhao therefore knew that Chu Zihou's psychology was very healthy, just like Gina's psychology. People like them don't become the kind of people who disappoint no matter what they encounter, just because they have their own beliefs and don't let the noise of the outside world affect their hearts.
Emperor Guangzhao patted him on the shoulder in his heart.
"Now the whole Central Plains has formed the phenomenon of four kingdoms, Xi is located in the west, opposite to the tribute country in the east, and the land area of the two countries is also comparable. The country of Mao in the north and the country of Zhang Si in the south are separated by the country of Xi, because the territory of the country of Xi extends to the middle of them, although a large part of our country of Xi is still trapped in the area where the country of Mao, the country of tribute and the country of Zhang Si meets, but because we occupy the country of the ball located in the west, it is like we have found an exit, and we are no longer trapped beasts on all sides. Emperor Guangzhao pointed to the map and said to Chu Zihou as he spoke, and it was difficult to hide his happiness.
Yes, judging from the map, the new Xi Kingdom is already a large country with a vast territory, a large population, and a very rich resource and culture, completely liberated from the small country that was besieged on all sides. Such an achievement turned out to be due to a weak and slender little woman, and every time she thought about this, Emperor Guangzhao was full of gratitude to Xizhen.
"I always feel that the reward for Guang'anhou is too light." Emperor Guangzhao said. On the one hand, he said this to state the facts, and on the other hand, he wanted to hear Chu Zihou's opinion on this matter.
"Based on Erchen's understanding of Guang'anhou, she may try to fit everyone's ideas as much as possible on matters related to the public interest. But her personal affairs are completely unconventional, and she only does it according to her own standards, which is why she wants a lot of books. Chu Zihou replied calmly.
Emperor Guangzhao smiled.
"Besides. Because Erchen accepted the fief, and she is about to marry Erchen next year, she may not feel the need to ask for another fief. Chu Zihou said again.
Emperor Guangzhao nodded.
"Well, that's fine, she's doing it in a clever way to prove that she's not a coveter. People who want to. Emperor Guangzhao said.
"Indeed." Chu Zihou agreed.
"I'm waiting for her to come back from her vacation, and see what kind of policies she will propose to Xi next. Since her return to Beijing, I have been particularly eager to hear her thoughts on the current situation. You know, she always sees and thinks things that others don't realize. ”
"Uh-huh. Erchen thinks so, too. Hearing his father's praise for her, Chu Zihou was also in a very good mood, and took another sip of the wine glass.
I thought that I would be able to marry her next year. His heart suddenly felt like he had drunk honey.
Time, please hurry up. He prayed in his heart, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but rise.
"The mountains and forests are especially full of birds in spring, and I want to go out hunting tomorrow afternoon. Then you can come too. I will also call the crown prince and the third prince. ”
"Good!" Chu Zihou readily agreed.
……………………
However, it was said that Mao Guo, Gong Guo and Zhang Siguo were all surprised when they learned the news that Xi Guo had occupied Qiu Guo.
"Just because you sent a woman to the country to be a national teacher, and then you occupied a country?" Yan Hao, the monarch of the Gong Kingdom, widened his eyes.
"Yes, Your Majesty, there are several versions of the rumors among the people, but the most spread is that the woman skillfully used a trick to coerce the monarch of the country on the one hand, Kui Da, and on the other hand, she used the students sent by the country of Guò Xi to study in the country of the country skillfully changed the love of the country of the ball. The report was reported to the monarch of the Xi Kingdom, and then the monarch of the Xi Kingdom quietly arranged for the army to lurk on the border line of Qiuxi......" The person sent to search for information reported to the newspaper.
"What an incredible thing!" Yan Hao said, reaching out and rubbing his forehead. A little weak and panicked.
This Emperor Guangzhao seems to be quite blessed, and he has such a powerful character under him. Yan Hao said secretly in his heart. He also especially hoped that the Gongguo could produce such a figure, but of course he didn't dare to invite Shen Xizhen to the Gongguo to be a military advisor, and the defeat of the Qiuguo made him feel her greatness.
It's just that since there is such a figure in Xi Kingdom, if she continues to make such a mess, maybe in a few years, she will set her sights on the surrounding countries such as Gongguo, Mao and Zhang Siguo. Yan Hao couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat while thinking about it.
In the past, he didn't take Xi Guo in his eyes at all, so there was that deliberate breach of appointment, but the current situation seems to be completely different, in order to prevent Xi Guo from holding a grudge, he must do his best to make amends.
So how can you make up for it? Do you want to write back and make an appointment to visit Wèn in person?
Undoubtedly, this was the best way he could think of at the moment, but since he had let go of the king of Xi once a pigeon, he was afraid that the king of Xi would not treat him this time.
How's that to be? You can't wait until they're aiming their guns at the tribute, can you?
So Yan Hao hurriedly convened the ministers to discuss how to deal with it.
"Your Majesty, at the moment, we alone cannot threaten the Xinxi Kingdom, according to Weichen's opinion, the best way is to unite with Mao Guo and Zhang Siguo, only in this way will they not dare to act rashly against us." A minister admonished.
Everyone nodded in agreement.
"Yes, and among these countries, Wei Chen believes that Mao Guo hates Xi the most, because two years ago they killed nearly 50,000 soldiers of Mao Guo, and they also had a war and conflict twenty years ago, plus these two countries have not signed regulations on friendship and cooperation, so Mao Guo will definitely be able to become the representative of the alliance to attack Xi State." Another minister admonished.
Yan Hao nodded in approval.
So he immediately wrote to the kings of Mao and Zhang Siguo, asking them to send representatives to discuss joint cooperation.
And Shen Xizhen had already expected this move from these three countries, so he entered the palace to see Emperor Guangzhao before the vacation period was over.
"I just talked to the people of the 'National Intelligence Tank' about this, and as you said, we should start moving right away. So, what do you think we should do? ”
"We must always take the initiative, so we can immediately send a letter to the kings of these countries and propose to form a four-nation alliance, so that there will be no phenomenon of which country wants to attack which country." Xi Zhen said.
"Well, your trick is really high, so not only do we not make enemies, but we have friends." Emperor Guangzhao was overjoyed.
"Yes, the truly powerful man is not in how many people he defeats, but in how many enemies he makes his friends. Your Majesty, please write to them as much as possible. Xizhen replied with a smile.
Emperor Guangzhao nodded repeatedly.
So Emperor Guangzhao immediately asked Gonggong Liu to prepare the four treasures of the study room for him, and he wanted to write letters to the kings of these three neighboring countries. (To be continued......)
