There is also a trading method called strong buying and strong selling!

After Xin Xi's words are completely connected, it is such a fixed pattern, coupled with the sharp blade on the neck of the little princess at this time, it is enough to interpret that this transaction is a forced purchase and sale, not something that can be rejected as Arthur Lun said!

"General Xinxi...... If you have something to say, we can discuss it! Arthur hurriedly stretched out his hand and spoke with an anxious face.

He seriously and profoundly discovered that he was not suitable to be a lobbyist, not suitable to negotiate, a few days ago, in the royal court of Khotanese Buddha, that is, after a few words, the king of Khotan threw his sleeves and left, and even, Khotanese Buddha country has been forced by him to the side of Ducasse.

Immediately afterward, he was hunted down.

Then, just now, after his words again, this seemingly harmless Dongtu general directly let a more innocent and harmless little girl control their princess.

Really, Arthur swore that from today onwards, he would never take on this kind of negotiation task again.

Steve was also a little anxious, two, two monsters like the Inquisition, once the other party really chooses to turn their faces, three hundred warriors can't stop two such monsters!

"General Xinxi, Arthur Lun can't actually be the master, you can ...... Don't take Arthur's word for it. ”

Steve said solemnly: "This is what we promised General Xin Xi from the beginning, and we will naturally complete it with integrity!" ”

Xin Xi smiled faintly and said, "Adam, come back!" ”

Adam was relieved, slapped the Roman princess hard, and this time turned back to Xin Xi.

Xin Xi turned his head to look at the gentle slope to the west, the cavalry of Khotan had begun to disperse, and after more than 200 people died, the remaining cavalry all involuntarily retreated.

After all, under the unknown death of their companions, they are afraid, afraid that the next one to suddenly die in vain will be them!

The air fluctuated slightly, and Xin Yi returned to Xin Yi's side, and replied respectfully: "Commander, the enemy has retreated, do you need to pursue?!" ”

Pursuit?!

Xin Zhen shook his head, it was none of his business, why bother.

Xin Yi sensed that something was wrong with the atmosphere, especially the eight guys lying on the ground over there, could it be that something unpleasant was released just now?!

But since Xin Xi didn't say it, she naturally wouldn't ask more, this is the most basic thing that a subordinate should do.

Xin Zhen slowly looks at Sawa (note that Xin Zhen thinks her name is Sawyer, but she is actually Yudoxia. "Then, please gather your people, set off now, go to the Tianshan Mountains, and find the Tianshan Snow Lotus!" ”

"As you wish." The sound of the stream tinkling is very tempting.

Immediately, Steve quickly walked towards the west and gathered the warriors.

Death did not appear, only thirteen people were injured of varying degrees of severity, and then, Steve passed on the order, go up to the Heavenly Mountain, and find the Heavenly Mountain Snow Lotus!

It's July 28, July is big, and it's thirty days, and it's two days before August.

After some tidying up, everyone brought warm thick cotton clothes, yes, in this era, Europe has begun to make cotton clothes, and the Great Song Dynasty, the use of cotton is not very mature, are still using kudzu, linen, cloth or satin, fur, fox fur to keep warm.

Xin Xi wore underwear made of fox fur on the inside, and then put on three layers of silk and a linen coat on the outside.

In addition to warm items, they also brought dried meat and other food, and more than 300 people marched towards the Tianshan Mountain.

Xin Xi and Xin Yi Adam walked at the front of the team, and from time to time they instructed the Roman soldiers to scatter to look for them, after all, there were not many people in a huge Tianshan Mountain, and there were not many people in three hundred.

In the middle and back of the line, Arthur, Steve, and Eudosia walked slowly up the hill under the escort of several warriors.

"Don't let me negotiate in the future, every time I negotiate, I can make an enemy for us...... Ay! ”

Arthur's sigh really hides endless bitterness!

Steve grinned: "It's nothing, anyway, this Xin Xi general, for us, is not an enemy yet!" ”

Well, it's true that it's not an enemy yet, but it doesn't feel like it's much worse!

Arthur was uncomfortable, but he had always regarded himself as the most prominent diplomat of the Eastern Roman Empire, and as a result, he went out twice in a row......

At this time, Eudocia slowly spoke: "Steve, what do you think of this Xinji?" ”

As she spoke, Yudosiah's brow furrowed, as if she was thinking about some kind of problem.

What do you think?!

Her Royal Highness rarely asks such a question, and once asked, it means that Her Royal Highness has a certain amount of attention and curiosity about this person.

Steve's face straightened, and the whole person slowly became serious: "According to the minister, this Xin Zhen general, I'm afraid that even in Dongtu, he is also a powerful person, similar to the status of Marshal Handmore!" ”

"Oh?!" Eudosia was slightly interested, Handmo was the god of war in the Eastern Roman Empire, if it weren't for Generalissimo Handmo's presence, the Holy See and that group of barbarians would have fought a long time ago!

Unexpectedly, this young general from Dongtu deserves such a high evaluation from Steve.

"According to it?!" Eudosia then asked, she didn't like to be told only the result, she preferred to listen and speculate on the process of that result.

Steve paused, seemed to be slapping his stomach, and was silent for a while before he spoke: "First of all, there are only these two people under this Xin Xi general, and these two people have the inhuman strength of the Holy See's Inquisition, and these two people are obedient to him, so from this point of view, this Xin Xi general must be the leader of these two people, not the one who is helped!" ”

"Think about it, if you can suppress these two monster-like people, this Xinxi general, either he is also a person with extraordinary martial arts, even more monsters than those two monsters, or, this Xinxi general, there is someone with an authority that no one can match, and only the supreme authority and prestige are enough to make those two monster-like guys submit!"

"In addition, his every move before inadvertently revealed a sense of indifference, which is obviously a trait that only people who often make major decisions can have, and in addition, it is Arthur's refusal, if he is just an ordinary general, presumably even if he chooses to turn his face, he will ask me and Her Royal Highness the Princess for your opinion before that......"

"But he didn't do this, which means that he saw that we were acquiescing in Arthur's behavior, so he didn't bother to bother to buckle his hands, which proves that his sense of smell in politics is not bad, and people with a good sense of political smell will not have a low status in the political circle, so I think he can be regarded as a figure like Marshal Handmore!"

Speaking of this, Steve spoke again: "This guy, this General Xinxi, is definitely the most worthy of our wooing, as long as he is wooed, Her Royal Highness the Princess wants to ascend to the position of Empress in accordance with His Majesty's will, it will be much easier!" ”

"Well, that makes sense!" Eudosia nodded.

Arthur on the side was sad: "However, people are obviously unwilling to meddle in the affairs of our empire!" Otherwise, there would not have been such a fierce refusal! ”

Eudocia smiled slightly, and then, little by little, the amplitude of the smile expanded, maintaining a perfect degree.

Looking straight at the two of them: "Arthur, Steve, I...... Isn't it beautiful?! ”

Beauty!

Confusing sentient beings, presumably, Helen, who caused the Battle of Troy, is also the beauty of Eudosiah!

Arthur thought in his heart.

Steve said bluntly: "If the minister is thirty years younger, the minister will definitely go bankrupt to pursue Her Royal Highness the princess!" ”

Eudosia nodded indifferently and said, "Arthurun, Steve, you two are here, I'll go up and chat with this Xin Xi general!" ”

This...... Nima!

Arthur felt very uncomfortable, as a courtier, but in the end he asked his Royal Highness the princess to sacrifice the hue, especially this princess, her Royal Highness, is the lover of his dreams!

He's really bad, it's hard!

……… Dividing line .........

"That bewitching slut is here!" Adam muttered quietly, his tone full of disgust.

The word bewitching and cheap goods was still said by chance in the past, but Adam found that this word was used to describe the Fanbang girl, which was just right, and it was worthy of the name!

Xin Zhen smiled slightly, turned his head to look at the 'bewitching slut' who came up from behind, and asked, "Her Royal Highness Princess Soya?!" ”

Eudosia smiled slightly: "My name is Eudosia, and Sawa is the name used to walk outside. ”

Eudoxia?!

Xin Xi was slightly stunned, this name is a little familiar, and I really want the names of some Czech girls...... No, it should be said that many of the Czech girls who worked in xing in later generations liked to use this name.

"So, Your Royal Highness Princess Eudocia, I don't know what's going on?!" Xin Zhen was indifferently perfunctory.

Eudocia smiled slightly: "Has General Xin Xi been to Rome, or, to the Carolingian Dynasty?" Or further west?! ”

What the hell is the Carolingian dynasty?! There is such a country on the other side of Western Europe?!

Xin Xi expressed his doubts, but shook his head: "No, I just heard about the people who came back from the sea." ”

Yudosia smiled slightly and said, "The Dongtu Maritime Silk Road is so prosperous?!" ”

"Well, almost!" Xin Xi was not interested, he hadn't carefully understood the shipping of the Great Song Dynasty.

Eudosia paused slightly, and the conversation seemed to be talked to death.

After thinking about it, Yudosia changed the topic and said: "In fact, the sea is very dangerous, and it is easy for ships to be destroyed and people to die, so it is not as safe as the land Silk Road." ”

Is it safe?!

Xin Xi has already seen the ferocity of nature all the way to the Tianshan Mountains, whether it is on land or at sea, it is very dangerous for human beings.

The two chatted without saying a word, and Yudosia was full of interest, and Xin Xi replied at most five words.

Eudocia desperately showed off her good figure and peerless appearance, and Xin Xi looked down at the road, not to remind him to be careful.

Half an hour later, Yudosia was angry and paralyzed, could this Dongtu general in front of him be the legendary eunuch of Dongtu, right?!

Fortunately, he didn't bother to pretend, Eudosia directly replied to the domineering queen's appearance, and said coldly: "General Xinxi, I will say it directly, I am the daughter of His Majesty Isaac I Komnenos of the Eastern Roman Empire, and I am the legal heir of the Roman Empire, I want to regain the throne that belongs to me, so I sincerely hope to get your help from General Xinxi, as long as I regain the throne that belongs to me, I will cooperate with Dongtu to open the land Silk Road, in addition, I will help you three times, within my ability!" ”

Saying his inner plan in one breath, Eudocia looked at Xin Xi quietly, it was the empress's three helps, presumably no one would not be moved, right?!

Xin Zhen twitched the corners of his mouth slightly: "The legal heirs have all been kicked out?" ”

Depend on!

Eudosia was full of iron, and he said with a stiff neck: "If it weren't for Ducasse with the support of the Western Holy See, I would never have lost!" ”

"But, haven't you been kicked out?!" Xin Xi spread his hands: "How much appetite to eat, how much to eat, not enough ability, it's better not to think about it, otherwise, you will definitely die ugly in the end!" ”

"You!" Eudosia is almost angry, not to mention, this confusing the faces of sentient beings, even if it is angry, it also has a charm.

When you're angry, it's important to calm down as soon as possible, because anger will only make you make decisions that make you angrier later!

These words were told to her by Yudosiah's father, His Majesty Emperor Isaac I Komnenos, when she was eight years old.

Trying his best to calm the anger in his heart, Eudosia began to look at the current problem from the standpoint of a politician, and after a while, Eudosia smiled slightly: "I heard that Khotan and Tibet, two hundred years ago, were both your eastern territories?" Do you want to reclaim this large piece of land? ”

"As long as ...... You help me ascend the throne as the empress, U read the book .net I cooperate with the east soil to lay this land! Luckily?! Eudosiah's face was full of confidence.

Hearing this, Xin Xi paused slightly, and his thinking began to become active, indeed, why do you have to keep squeezing potential in China, isn't there a saying in later generations called the introduction of foreign capital? !

'Going out' and 'bringing in'!

Thinking of this, Xin Xi was a little moved, after all, the rise of the Mongols covered the entire Eurasian continent, if there was an alliance with the Eastern Rome in advance, when the time came, even if it counterattacked the Mongols, it could also create a super defense line across the Eurasian continent!

But at the same time, Xin Xi hesitated, in this case, why didn't he go directly to the emperor of the Eastern Roman Empire to negotiate, and he had to bet on this woman who was thrown out?!

However, he will be more grateful if he sends charcoal in the snow, and he also understands this truth.

In this case, it is better to send charcoal in the snow, after all, he himself does not like the Western religion very much.

"Find Tianshan Snow Lotus first, and then talk about this!" Xin Xi spoke slowly, and did not choose to agree directly.
