Tuoba Yannu bowed and said: "In the past few years, Tuyuhun has often sent troops to invade the territory of our party and people, killing our people, stealing our horses, cattle, sheep and women, making our people miserable!" Our leader has heard that Qianguo is a newly rising power in the Central Plains, with a large population, vast land, and powerful armaments, and we hope to be blessed by Qianguo! ”

"Recently, our leader received news that Qianguo plans to send troops to attack Tuyuhun, and our leader wants to unite all party members and your country to send troops to solve Tuyuhun, a tribe that endangers the plateau, so he specially sent me to meet His Majesty the Emperor, hoping to get His Majesty's consent!"

Zhao Junsheng thought about it for a while and asked the ministers: "What do you think of this?" ”

Dongfang Chen stood up and saluted and said: "Your Majesty, the minister thinks that this move is beneficial to us and the party members, the enemy of the enemy is a friend, if I can join forces with the party members to send troops to attack Tuyuhun, it will not be a problem to solve Tuyuhun at all!" ”

Mao Xiuzhi stood up and said: "Your Majesty, the minister thinks that he can canonize the party members as vassals, but the ministers do not agree to attack Tuyuhun with the party members!" ”

"Why?" Zhao Junsheng was a little puzzled, Mao Xiuzhi's opposition was a little surprising, two to fight one is better than one to fight the other, right? It can also share half of the risk, which can reduce the casualties of the generals.

Mao Xiuzhi said: "Your Majesty, if you jointly attack Tuyuhun with the party members, then the territory and population will be distributed to them, and some cattle, sheep and horses will also be distributed to them. ”

"Hahaha······" Zhao Junsheng laughed.

Mao Xiuzhi was a little embarrassed, but he still had the courage to ask: "Why is Your Majesty laughing, but what the minister said is not right?" ”

Zhao Junsheng shook his head: "It can't be said that your idea is wrong, as the so-called people don't destroy the heavens and the earth for themselves, our big cadres have the ability to solve Tuyuhun alone, and there is really no need to pull foreign aid." However······ Mao Qing's idea is like wanting to eat alone, this is not good, although I have no contact with the party members before, but at least at the moment, the party members are not our enemies, the party people are here with friendliness and sincerity, if we refuse their friendship, they are likely to turn from friends to enemies, as a sober-minded emperor, I can't do this! ”

"If we can be friends, why should I make enemies? If the businessmen can be friends with each other, and everyone earns money together, it is better than the two sides to compete for the market and reduce the price, and in the end make both sides lose! What do you think? ”

Mao Xiuzhi was stunned, and after reacting, he saluted and said: "Your Majesty's words made Weichen Mao Sai suddenly, Your Majesty is Shengming!" ”

"Your Majesty Shengming!" The ministers bowed and shouted.

The party envoy Tuoba Yannu naturally couldn't understand the conversation between Zhao Junsheng and the ministers, and he didn't know what it meant when he watched the ministers of the Great Qianjun and the ministers muttering a lot.

At this time, Zhao Junsheng said to Tuoba Yannu: "Your envoy, I agree to form an alliance with the party to jointly send troops to attack Tuyuhun, I don't know how do you think the two sides will distribute the spoils after the defeat of Tuyuhun?" ”

Tuoba Yannu thought for a while before saying: "The two sides send their own troops, and the captured territory, captured population, and livestock are all their own gains, and if the two sides meet, the location of the meeting is the dividing line, and the soldiers and horses of both sides are not allowed to cross the dividing line!" In addition, in order to show fairness, both sides need to agree on a date to send troops together! ”

Zhao Junsheng promised: "Yes, I agreed, and the day of sending troops together will be two months later!" ”

The party has not yet appeared in writing, and there is no calendar, and the years are generally calculated by the withering of plants and trees, and Tuoba Yannu does not understand how long two months is, "Two months? How long? ”

The interpreter was quite helpless, so he had to translate his words again.

Damn, this is really difficult to communicate, Zhao Junsheng was stunned for a while.

Hua Mulan, who was sitting next to her, said to the interpreter: "If you tell him this, you will say that from tomorrow, after sixty days and nights, the two sides will send troops together to attack Tuyuhun!" ”

Zhao Junsheng hurriedly said: "Yes, yes, yes, just tell him!" ”

The interpreter immediately translated to Tuoba Yannu, who said he understood and said to Zhao Junsheng: "Your Majesty, let's just make up our minds!" Time is very tight, and the subordinates have to rush back to Tuyuhun to report to the chief, and the chief has to send someone to inform the leaders of all departments to discuss the matter of sending troops together, so the subordinates have to leave today, and ask Your Majesty to send someone to receive the horses and cordyceps brought by the subordinates! ”

"Good! Originally, I planned to entertain the envoy, but since the envoy is in a hurry to go back, I will not stay, and I wish the envoy a smooth journey! ”

Tuoba Yannu saluted, then turned around and left with two retinues.

When they were far away, Zhao Junsheng ordered: "Gao Xiu!" ”

Gao Xiu stood up and clenched his fists: "The minister is here!" ”

"Spread the decree, order Chang Kun and Wei Dependents to postpone the attack time, today is the twenty-fifth day of the first month, the attack time is postponed to the first day of the first month of April, and it will be sent over with 800 miles of expedited horses!"

Gao Xiu was stunned for a moment, didn't he just say to the party envoy that everything was fine, and they would send troops together two months later? Two months later, March 25, and April 1st is six days later than agreed!

Before Gao Xiu could react, one of the ministers stood up and reminded: "Your Majesty, according to the agreed date, the time to send troops should be March 25!" ”

Zhao Junsheng turned his head and stared coldly at the minister who spoke: "I know, I am not old and confused!" Or do you think you're better at arithmetic than I am? ”

"Minister······ Punish the crime, punish the crime! The minister retreated into disarray.

Some ministers reacted, Zhao Junsheng did this to attract Mu Liyan's attention with the attack of the party members first, and transfer most of Mu Liyan's troops to deal with the party people first, so that the attack of Chang Kun and Wei Wei would be much smoother, and the resistance encountered would be much smaller.

Gao Xiu agreed: "Yes, Your Majesty!" ”

Hua Mulan said: "Your Majesty, the concubine thinks it's not good for you to do this, since the two sides have formed an alliance, they must treat each other sincerely, as soon as the envoy leaves, you will make small moves behind your back, if it is known, my big cadre will lose his integrity!" ”

Zhao Junsheng couldn't help but smile bitterly, lady, lady, even if you want to say this, you can't say it in front of the Manchu Dynasty civil and military, how can you make me embarrassed as an emperor and husband?

Zhao Junsheng could only wave his hand: "Retreat!" ”

As the eunuch shouted to retreat, the ministers would smile and leave the hall after saluting together.

When the people were gone, Zhao Junsheng said: "I said, can you save me some face in front of the ministers?" You will make me lose my prestige in front of the ministers, you know? Even if you want to say that I am not, you should still say it behind closed doors in private, how can you let me rule the ministers in the future if you do this today? ”

Hua Mulan also realized that she was too reckless just now and didn't pay attention to the occasion, she was quite embarrassed, "That······ Brother Junsheng, I'm sorry, you also know that I am an urgent child, and I can't hide what I have in my heart. But you really didn't do what you did just now, you're not such a person! ”

Zhao Junsheng looked at Hua Mulan and sighed: "My stupid mother-in-law, you just believe in the party members with a simple mind, do you think they are really kind to come all the way?" Who in this world is not unprofitable and can't afford to be early? The party members are cunning, do you think they will really send troops on the agreed date? Since we want them to send troops to attract Mu Liyan's troops first, they will definitely have the same idea, and the person who can be the leader of a film is by no means an honest person! ”

Hua Mulan opened her mouth, she really didn't want to believe that there were so many twists and turns in the alliance between the two sides, "The party members will be so shrewd?" ”

Zhao Junsheng sighed: "You, do you think that the barbarians are really all reckless men with simple minds and well-developed limbs? The person who treats others as fools is actually the most stupid himself! ”

Three days later, Hua Mulan went south out of Beijing and inspected all the way to various states and counties, mainly to see the orphans in orphanages and the lonely and widowed elderly in nursing homes, but the officials of various states and counties did not dare to slack off and received them with extremely grand etiquette.

After inspecting two counties in a row, Mulan felt that something was wrong, and immediately sent people to issue an edict to the prefectures, counties, and other levels of government along the way, requiring officials at all levels to only arrange accommodation, and only allow them to meet when they are called, and not to work hard to mobilize the people, work the people and lose money, and not to levy additional taxes on the people on the grounds of receiving her.

After this edict was issued, the local government settled down, and some government officials did begin to do so, but after receiving the edict, they were frightened and immediately returned the collected taxes to the people.

After Hua Mulan left Qianjing for a period of time, several important ministers jointly submitted a plan to move the capital, and they formulated two sets of plans for Zhao Junsheng to choose from.

The first set of plans was that Zhao Junsheng took half of the ministers and officials of the court to Chang'an on the grounds of inspecting Guanzhong, leaving a prince to supervise the country, Zhao Junsheng settled in Chang'an first, and quickly implemented the offices of various ministries and yamen of the imperial court in Chang'an, and then moved the officials who remained in Qianjing to Chang'an after Chang'an took over most of the military and political affairs of the imperial court.

The second plan was: first send a few important ministers and some officials to Chang'an to set up the shelves of various yamen, and then Zhao Junsheng, the emperor, moved to Chang'an.

Zhao Junsheng felt not very satisfied after reading the two plans handed over by the important ministers, he thought for a moment and said: "In this way, the eldest prince Zhao Dong is nineteen years old this year, and he should also be allowed to go out to practice, I decreed that he should be canonized as the crown prince, and ordered him to go out of the town of Chang'an to take charge of the military and political affairs of Guanzhong, and the six departments of the three provinces and the temples of each province sent three percent of the officials to accompany him, Pei Jin, Liang Lian, and Dongfang Chen, led by the three of you, and after you arrived in Chang'an, you will quickly set up the shelf of the Chang'an court first!" Gao Xu, you Longwu and Shenwu guards are with you! ”

"Obey your orders!"
