Wen Wen'er's frightened face turned pale, she hugged Niu Tianci and said anxiously: "Husband, be calm, now that Your Majesty has just ascended the throne, it is time for conceit, husband, don't be outspoken, it's better to persuade you politely." ”

"Will he listen to him?"

"Husband, Rou'er also persuaded Your Majesty, but Your Majesty is very stubborn and can't listen to anyone's words. Some old ministers in the DPRK also risked their lives to admonish them, but they were all rejected by His Majesty on the spot at that time, leaving no trace of affection. Husband, Rou'er doesn't understand government politics, but she also feels that it is extremely inappropriate to do so. But he is the emperor after all. ”

"If he wants to go, he will go, I will never follow him. If you want to go, I'm going with the Flying Tiger Legion. Well, you don't have to worry, I know how to tell him. ”

Long Xingrong was very interested, rummaging through the few large boxes that Tianci had brought back. He didn't have to ask him to know that it was for himself, because the seal on the box had the word "Your Majesty" on it. Long Xingrong knew that the same box must still exist, and it must have been given to the Emperor.

At this time, Long Xingrong was watching with a piece of crystal clear jadeite, carefully pondering whether to use this piece of jadeite to make a set of jewelry for Su Meiduo. Sumedo has a fair and delicate complexion, which makes it ideal for wearing this rich emerald green jadeite jewelry.

Well, the gemstone should also be selected to be the best necklace made of gold inlaid in the style of Rongbe, and only the identity of Sumeiduo is worthy of such a luxurious ornament. Long Xingrong kept rummaging as he thought about it. Peach Blossom carefully packed the treasure that Long Xingrong liked in the box and stacked it neatly on the side, and then ordered someone to carry the box out.

When Long Xingrong held a white ivory more than a person tall in his arms, Niu Tianci walked into the living room.

"Your Majesty, this is the tooth of the white elephant that is a specialty of Nanyi, this thing is very rare, it is cool to hold in your hand when it is hot, it is really an excellent treasure to dispel the heat and cool down."

"Well, presumably the heat on the grassland is also difficult to bear, so it's better to give this pair of ivory to Sumeduo."

Long Xingrong's current appearance is no different from the little boy in unrequited love, no matter what good things are, the first thing that comes to mind is to give it to the goddess in his heart. Niu Tianci, who has lived for two lifetimes, has never experienced this feeling in his previous life, and only after arriving in Dayan has he experienced it in Yuan'er, Rou'er and Xiaoyue. It's a wonderful feeling that makes all the men and women who are caught in it happy. I can't give all the treasures I can find to my sweetheart.

Niu Tianci stepped forward and carefully wrapped the ivory and handed it to Peach Blossom, who smiled and sent it out of the door in person. Tianci opened a few more unopened boxes, and showed the treasures to Long Xingrong one by one. Before, Long Xingrong opened a box by box, and he didn't feel anything at that time, but now that Niu Tianci opened the box together, Long Xingrong felt that his eyes were not enough.

"Big brother, how did you get so many treasures?"

"The Northwest Liukou found a small road that could lead directly to Nanyi, but the road was extremely difficult, so it was impossible to transport goods in large quantities, so they could only transport these high-value and small-sized treasures back and forth. However, there is a shortage of grain in the northwest, and these treasures are worth a lot in our eyes, but in the eyes of the people in the northwest, they are not as expensive as the gold of grain. Food can save lives, but what is the use of these treasures except for being beautiful? ”

"Big brother's words are wrong, and treasures can also be exchanged for a lot of food. With these treasures, I can exchange them for many useful things, and I can even buy grain from the people to fill the treasury and alleviate the grain shortage in the northwest. ”

"Then from whom are you going to buy food? Jiangnan is still in the hands of the rebels, and the rebels have strict supervision over grain. The bulk grain trade is directly controlled by the rebels, and except for the four prefectures in the north, which are relatively rich in grain, where is there not a food shortage? In the past, there was grassland, and beef and mutton could be used to supplement the shortage, but now I can only think of other ways. ”

"Big brother, now that the northwest has been decided, is it possible to recover Jiangnan?"

Niu Tianci looked at Long Xingrong with emotion and annoyance in his heart. What he said just now was something, he hoped that Long Xingrong would be able to hear the sound of the piano and know the meaning of elegance, and turn his mind to the matter of recovering the grassland. But what disappointed Tianci was that Long Xingrong still wanted to calm the civil strife first, but he didn't pay attention to the captives who were eyeing him. No, it's not that he doesn't take it to heart, Long Xingrong is very attentive to Su Meiduo, but this kind of dedication is not what Niu Tianci wants to see.

"Jiangnan will have to be taken back sooner or later, but has Your Majesty ever thought about how to deal with it if we were concentrating on dealing with Jiangnan, and Rong Lu took advantage of the situation to attack Dayan. When the minister and the emperor were discussing the policy, they once said that they would attack the back of the Jiangnan Xiangbei. But at that time, the Far East was not lost, the Urakan defense line was still there, and the minister was not worried that our rear would be invaded by foreign enemies. Now that Rong Yu's scimitar has been pressed against our chests, it is a bit evasive to talk about recovering Jiangnan at this time. Your Majesty, the minister thought that it was time to reorganize the army and fight to strictly prevent the captives from attacking Dayan. We should also seize the opportunity to take the initiative to attack from all sides, so that Rong Lu is tired of coping and cannot figure out what our real goal is, and when the Rong Lu people are sleepy and tired, our army will use Yan Wushuang's tactics to attack Wenduer Mountain, even if it cannot make a contribution in one fell swoop, it will force Rong Lu to shrink the defense line and dare not approach the twelve border states. ”

In this way, we can take advantage of the situation to open up the western trade route, restore the connection with Manggul, and form an alliance with Manggul to deal with the Rong, if this goal can be achieved, the northern Xinjiang will be peaceful. By the time Ning Yuan was recovered and Rong Yu was driven back to Sky Wolf City, the goal of the first phase of the entire campaign had been achieved. At this time, you can rest for a while and prepare for the recapture of the Celestial Wolf and the Far East. As for Jiangnan, Your Majesty is still afraid that Jiangnan will not return to obedience? ”

"Big brother, Jiangnan Murong Feng is a wolf, he only thinks about capturing Dayan Jiangshan. The kowtow he said was just a pretext. Besides, now that Murong Feng defeated the Nanyi army, the power is even stronger, he is stubbornly defending Jiangnan and not fighting us, and he is safe and stable as his grass king, who can help him? Therefore, Jiangnan must be taken back by force, and everything else is just delusion. ”

"Your Majesty has a plan in mind, so is it to attack Jiangnan for the ministers? If Weichen captures Jiangnan, then will His Majesty be able to launch a war against Rongyu? ”

"Big brother, where is there such a good fight in Jiangnan. You must know that the secret agents arranged by the Snow Wolf Guard in Jiangnan recently, those who were killed were killed, those who were caught were arrested, and the sources were almost cut off. Jiangnan is now a three-legged stand, and I want to win over one side to suppress the other two, first let Jiangnan have civil strife, and then take the opportunity to send troops to Jiangnan to recover it in one fell swoop. ”

"Then what benefits does Your Majesty intend to give to one of them?"

"I plan to make one of them the king, the so-called one mountain does not tolerate two tigers, then Murong Feng will definitely not accept it, so that he himself will contact the other party to attack the family that was crowned king, isn't Jiangnan in the midst of civil strife? By this time, we will secretly support the side that is about to be overwhelmed, and let Jiangnan fall into a long-term civil war, depleting their strength. It will be easy when we send troops to Jiangnan. ”

"This plan will take a long time, so what does Your Majesty plan to do in the meantime? You must know that there is a group of vicious wolves behind His Majesty. ”

"That's why I'm going to marry Sumedo, the two countries have become in-laws, so we won't fight again, right?"

"Then if the Celestial Wolf Khanate or Sumedo makes a non-dividing request, how should Your Majesty respond?"

"For the present, we should not only look at the immediate gains and losses, but also plan for the long term. I promised to give the Sirius Khanate some small profits, but what I got was Sumeduo, the great khan, and the entire Sirius Khanate. Big brother, think about it, my son and Su Meiduo will be the joint monarchs of Dayan and the Heavenly Wolf Khanate in the future, isn't this equivalent to taking back the grassland? ”

You are too naïve, this is the words of Niu Tianci's heart, he didn't say it. What is the purpose of the marriage between the two countries? It's not that one country is subsumed into another, are you a fool of the Wolf Khanate? Is it possible that the land that was exchanged for countless blood and lives was given to others just because of a marriage? Even when the relationship between Dayan and Manggul was the most harmonious, the eldest princess of Emperor Shengzuren married King Manggul, but it could not make Manggul a part of Dayan, let alone marry the enemy.

Niu Tianci was no longer interested in talking to Long Xingrong, he no longer asked questions, but only made a gesture of invitation. Long Xingrong thought that he had persuaded Niu Tianci, he proudly entered the table, and took Niu Tianci's hand and asked him to sit beside him.

"Big brother, our brothers are only three brothers away. However, it is a pity that he can't leave Liaodong without permission. Big brother, this time I plan to personally go to the Great Khan Royal City, the capital of the Heavenly Wolf Khanate, to ask for relatives, and at the same time to participate in the founding ceremony of Sumeduo. Big brother, you also know that the relationship between Dayan and the Heavenly Wolf Khanate is very delicate, so I hope that Big Brother you can go with me. ”

"Your Majesty, what other conditions did Sumeduo put forward?"

"Well, big brother, you must not be angry. Sumeduo said that he hoped to return the heads of the Great Khan of Beirong, Naotu and Hulei. I feel that five hundred years have passed, and those two heads are now only left with the white bones of Sensen, and it is really useless to keep them, so it is better to return them to them. ”

"So Your Majesty has already agreed?"

"I've agreed."

"Then the minister has nothing to say."

"But Su Meiduo also asked the eldest brother to personally escort you, and personally presented the heads of the two great khans to Su Meiduo at the ceremony. Actually, Su Meiduo wanted my uncle to do this, but you also know that my uncle doesn't know whether he is alive or dead, and there is no news, so I have to trouble you, eldest brother. ”

Smack, Niu Tianci couldn't help it no matter how good his cultivation was, and he slapped it on the table. You must know that Niu Tianci's true identity is the son-in-law of the Yan family and the only heir of the contemporary Yan family. The heads of the two Great Khans of Beirong have a great origin. The head of Nao Tu was cut off by Yan Wushuang when he raided Wenduer Mountain. Hulei's head was cut down when Yan Wushuang led the Northern Army to sweep the grassland, and after stepping on Wenduer Mountain, he and Manggul annihilated Hulei's hundreds of thousands of Western Expeditionary Army. It can be said that these two heads not only represent the great martial arts of Dayan, but also represent the glory of the Yan family. Now that Su Meiduo has made this request, this is simply tearing off the faces of the ancestors of the Great Yan Ancestors and throwing them under his feet to step on. That's not all, Su Meiduo also took this opportunity to kick the Yan family, who had always been regarded as the god of war by the people of Dayan, to the ground.

Let Yan Chengyu return the head and present it by hand, what does this mean? This is to make the descendants of the Yan family bow their heads to Rong Yu and confess their guilt, which is absolutely intolerable. Even if Tianci is not a descendant of the Yan family, he can't agree, because Tianci is Yan Chengyu's disciple and a new generation of military gods of Dayan, and this humiliation is absolutely unbearable.

A loud bang startled Long Xingrong so much that his chopsticks fell on the table, and Peach Blossom turned pale with fright, kneeling on the ground and trembling. As soon as Wen Rou'er came in with a plate of dishes, she was so frightened by this scene that she let go of her hand and threw a plate of dishes on the ground. Long Xingrong looked at Niu Tianci with annoyance, he knew that Niu Tianci would definitely not be happy after hearing this, but he didn't expect Niu Tianci to dare to slap the table in front of him, Long Xingrong felt that his majesty had been provoked, and asked in a deep voice: "What is the purpose of Niu Hou's move?" ”

Although Niu Tianci slapped the table, his face was always calm.

"Your Majesty, it is rude for the minister, and I ask your Majesty to forgive the crime of driving for the minister. His Majesty wanted the minister to accompany His Majesty to Ningyuan, so the minister had no choice but to obey the order. However, for the sake of His Majesty's safety, Wei Chen decided to send all the soldiers of the Flying Tiger Legion and follow His Majesty to the grassland. Wei Chen will also order the Northwest Iron Cavalry to go west out of Jinzhou and attack the newly built Wolf Mountain camp in Jebeli. Wang Meng doesn't have to go with the shelf, Your Majesty is right, Liaodong can't be lost. The minister ordered Wang Meng to concentrate the Flying Tiger Army to storm the Sky Wolf City with all his might, and even if he couldn't take the Sky Wolf City, he would blow it up to powder. What does Your Majesty think of such an arrangement? ”

"Bold cow godsend, didn't you understand what I told you? I'm here to ask for marriage, not to fight. ”

"Your Majesty, there is only one way for a minister to go to the grassland, and that is to recover the lost territory and sweep away the captives. Other than that, the minister would rather not go. ”

"You, you, I came to your house to ask you for help, but you have such an attitude. When we worshipped, you said that as long as I was in trouble, I would think of me and your eldest brother, have you forgotten this sentence? Now that I am in a very difficult situation, you, as my eldest brother and my courtier, why don't you help me, and only think about fighting, is there no other way but to fight? ”

Long Xingrong mentioned the events of the year that made Niu Tianci's heart twist like a knife, Long Xingrong at that time and the current Emperor Xingsheng were completely like two people. Niu Tianci knew that the friendship between their brothers had come to an end, so he knelt on the ground and said, "The minister still remembers what he said back then, and the minister didn't dare to forget it for a moment. Minister, may I ask Your Majesty, how much does Your Majesty remember what His Majesty said back then? ”

Long Xingrong was choked by this sentence like a bone in his throat, and he couldn't say a word. Annoyed and angry, Long Xingrong turned around and slapped Pick Flower's face.

"Dog minion, what did you say I said back then?"

"The slave deserves to die, the minion deserves to die, what His Majesty said back then, the minion can't remember, Your Majesty forgives the sin."

Long Xingrong kicked Peach Blossom to the ground, and kept kicking with his feet, but Peach Blossom didn't dare to hide and had to hold on so hard.

"Why is Your Majesty angry? Your Majesty also knows that it is good to be angry, but don't take your anger out on your own people! ”

"Husband~~~~~~

Wen Wen'er suddenly knelt beside Niu Tianci and covered Niu Tianci's mouth with her hand. She turned her head and said to Long Xingrong: "Your Majesty is angry, my husband has drunk a few more cups of saddle horse, which offended Your Majesty, and I also ask Your Majesty to be magnanimous and forgive your husband's disrespectful sin, and my husband and wife will go to the palace to ask Your Majesty for their guilt another day." ”

After finishing speaking, Wen Rou'er lay on the ground and knelt down, Niu Tianci looked at Wen Rou'er's appearance and felt distressed, and pulled her up and hugged her tightly in his arms. Long Xingrong vented, his mood calmed down a little, he looked at Niu Tianci coldly, turned around and walked out. When he was about to reach the door, he said without looking back: "Spread the decree, remove Niu Tianci from the position of the general manager of the northwest march, and the governor of the soldiers and horses of all roads, and order him to return to the land of the four states under his jurisdiction, and sit in Youzhou to defend Liaodong. Without a purpose, it is forbidden to send troops to conquer the Celestial Wolf Khanate. ”

After finishing speaking, Long Xingrong brushed his sleeves and left. Peach Blossom got up from the ground and hurriedly bowed to the two of them, and chased them out.

In the early morning of the next day, the gate of Fengtian City had just opened, and Cangshan County Hou led the generals out of the city to Youzhou, Li Ke couldn't help frowning when he looked at Niu Tianci who was walking away.

There are only Long Xingrong, Li Ke and Sikong Fu in the side hall of Taihe Palace. Li Ke looked at the holy decree drafted by Long Xingrong to order Niu Tianci to guard Youzhou, and his brows furrowed even tighter.

Sikong Fu leaned forward and whispered: "Your Majesty is waiting for the cattle to return to Youzhou, but I am afraid that the tiger will return to the mountain." ”

Long Xingrong was stunned for a moment and then said, "It's okay, Sister Wen is still in Beijing." ”

Sikong Fu smiled and stepped back to say no more, and Li Ke's brow furrowed even tighter. (To be continued.) )
