Chapter 90: Decisions; Expansion of Meijing and construction of the Imperial Palace (4th Update)

Gao Yang Yajun drank tea, thought for a quarter of an hour, and asked:

"So what do you Roman Empire need my Huaxia Kingdom to do for you?"

"It's very simple, we hope that Your Majesty the Emperor will send an army to be stationed in our Roman Empire, and our Roman Empire will pay you."

Princess Anastasia told her purpose, and when Gao Yang Yajun heard this, she said:

"Isn't this a mercenary? What do you think the army of the Chinese Empire is? ”

Gao Yang Yajun was really speechless, she really couldn't figure out why these two countries came to him to borrow troops.

Gao Yang Yajun thought for a moment, raised his head and looked at Princess Anastasia and said:

"Princess, I wonder how long you need my Huaxia army to be stationed in Rome?"

"Let's be stationed for five years first, and then we need to be stationed later, we are renegotiating!" Princess Anastasia looked at Gao Yang Yajun and said.

"Oh? Well, I agreed to your request! How many people does the princess need to be stationed in your Roman Empire? "Goyang Masajun agreed to Princess Antasia's alliance.

"Fifty thousand! Can you get it? The corners of Princess Anastasia's mouth rose, and she looked at Gao Yang Yajun and asked.

"Yes, I can lend you 50,000 elite soldiers for a period of five years, and you will need to pay me a commission every year for these five years. And their food is provided by you! Gao Yang Yajun looked at Princess Anastasia and nodded.

In fact, although this alliance seems to require the Chinese Empire to send troops, the Eastern Roman Byzantine Empire is the most suitable for Gao Yang Yajun to train troops, because the Eastern Roman Byzantine Empire is adjacent to Arabia in the south, and there are often wars, so Gao Yang Yajun agreed.

"Then Ashina Khan, what can you give me?" Gao Yang Yajun and asked as he looked at Ashina Zachariah again.

After listening to the conversation between Gao Yang Yajun and Princess Annatasya, Ashina Zachariah opened his mouth and asked:

"Your Majesty, what do you need!?"

The corners of Gao Yang Yajun's mouth rose and he looked at Ashina Zachariah and said:

"Ashina Khan, I remember that there is only a small area in the Taoriga region of your Ashina Division."

Ashina Zachariah nodded and said:

"Well, that's right!"

"Then, Ashina Khan, you only need to give me those Taoriga regions that Ashina still owns." Gao Yang Yajun made her request, and then continued: "And I will provide manpower, material resources and troops for free to help you seize the throne of the Khazar Khanate. ”

"Tauriga area!?" Ashina Zachariah hesitated, he didn't expect Gao Yang Yajun to actually ask for that place.

"Yes, the Tauriga region, anyway, three-quarters of the Tauriga region of your Ashina tribe is occupied by the Magyars, so the remaining quarter might as well be given to me! In any case, the Tauriga region was the smallest of the Khazar Khanate. Gao Yang Yajun nodded and persuaded Ashina Zachariah.

"This, this, Emperor, can you change your request?" Ashina Zachariah said in embarrassment.

"Ashina Khan, I want this place." Gao Yang Yajun just looked at the Taoriga region, because with the Taoriga region, the Huaxia Empire had a region that could lead to the Mediterranean.

"This, Emperor, you are embarrassing me!" Ashina Zachariah frowned and looked at Gao Yang Yajun.

"Ashina Khan, you just give that place to me, I will provide the army to assist you for free, and you don't have to worry about the army I provide you, and their military supplies are also provided by me!" Gao Yang Yajun persuaded Ashina Zachariah.

Ashina Zachariah stood up, walking from side to side, thinking about whether it would be worth ceding the Tauriga region.

Gao Yang Yajun watched Ashina Zachariah walk around from side to side, and she didn't urge, she sat quietly on the dragon chair and looked at Ashina Zachariah.

Ashina Zachariah thought for about ten minutes before he stopped.

"What? Ashina Khan has thought about it? Gao Yang Yajun saw Ashina Zachariah stop and asked.

"Your Majesty the Great Emperor of Huaxia, I'm sorry, I think you should make some other requests!" Ashina Zachariah deliberately used Chinese etiquette to bow his hand and say.

"What? Ashina Khan disagrees, then okay, you better please go back! I can't help you! Gao Yang Yajun flicked his sleeves and turned around.

"This, this" Ashina Zachariah looked at the Prime Minister and the Ministry of Rites, and the Prime Minister and the Ministry of Rites shook their heads at him, and then stopped looking at Ashina Zachariah.

"This, this .....," Ashina Zachariah frowned and walked back and forth.

"Otherwise, Ashina Khan, I am adding a condition, I will provide your tribe with food for two years free of charge, what do you think?" Gao Yang Yajun added a condition.

"This, this, well, His Majesty the Great Emperor of China. I, I agreed. Ashina Zachariah heard that Gao Yang Yajun was providing him with two years of food, and he immediately agreed.

After all, food is more important than money in this era.

"Well, a wise decision!" Gao Yang Yajun nodded and said.

"Then since we've all talked about it, congratulations on our alliance!" Princess Anastasia held out her hand.

"Huh? Are the two of you also in an alliance? Gao Yang Yajun looked at Ashina Zachariah and Anastasia.

"Well, yes, Emperor Huaxia." Princess Anastasia nodded.

"Well, then this is the Triple Alliance!" Gao Yang Yajun nodded and said.

Gao Yang Yajun After they finished speaking, they went back to their respective residences.

......

On the afternoon of the second day, Gao Yang Yajun summoned Li Shanglong, the secretary of the Ministry of Works, and Feng Jialan, the secretary of the Ministry of Households, to come to the study to discuss matters.

"Wechen greets Your Majesty!"

"Wechen greets Your Majesty!"

Li Shanglong, the secretary of the Ministry of Works, and Feng Jialan, the secretary of the Ministry of Households, walked in to meet Gao Yang Yajun.

"Two lovers are exempt! Come on, come on, sit down and talk! Gao Yang Yajun went up and helped up the two Shangshu and sat them down.

"I don't know what happened to His Majesty's ministers and others?" The two Shangshu asked.

"Of course, I called you here to expand Meijing and build a new palace!" Gao Yang Yajun looked at the two Shangshu and told her purpose.

"Your Majesty, the minister is already making sketches! And the sketch minister also brought, Your Majesty, please see! Li Shanglong, the secretary of the Ministry of Industry, took out a sketch of the capital and handed it to Gao Yang Yajun.

Gao Yang Yajun took the sketch and took a general look, "Not bad, not bad, Lord Li, this palace is very good!" But I think you could add some Roman and Big Food styles! And then the building will be bigger! This palace of mine, Li Aiqing, you have to build a bigger palace than the Daming Palace of the Tang Dynasty! ”

Li Shanglong asked:

"Your Majesty, but this manpower and material resources?"

"Manpower and material resources? Master Li, you can use grain as a commission to recruit those poor people around the Huaxia Empire to work! The architecture is mainly in Chinese style, supplemented by big food and Roman style! Gao Yang Yajun commanded.

"Oh? That's right, why didn't the minister think of it? Your Majesty! Li Shanglong flattered Gao Yang Yajun.

"Hubu Shangshu, you fully cooperate with the Ministry of Works!"

Gao Yang Yajun arranged.

"Yes, Your Majesty!"
