In 190 A.D., the first year of the early peace of the Han Dynasty, in mid-May, the rest army that had external troubles sued for peace under the auspices of Dianfen and sued for peace with the northern Xinjiang regime, which means that the rest admits defeat and admits that the Tianci army in the Western Regions has won the final victory!

The content of the peace book is very cumbersome, for the time being, I will list a few main regulations, this is a peace letter submitted by Anxi, which has nothing to do with the Northern Xinjiang regime, the first article of the peace book, the Anxi Empire recognizes that the Western Regions countries, including the territories previously conquered by Anxi, are all owned by the Northern Xinjiang regime.

Second, because the Anxi Empire provoked a war in advance, it was willing to compensate 50,000 catties of gold in exchange for peaceful coexistence between the two sides, of course, if the Northern Xinjiang regime thought that the price was unreasonable, it could be negotiated.

Third, the Rest Empire hopes to become an ally with the Northern Xinjiang regime, and when it is difficult to rest, the Northern Frontier can offer paid conditions to help, and if the Northern Frontier is in trouble, the Rest will also send troops to help, of course, it is also paid, and this amount can also be discussed.

Fourth, the Sabbath Empire hopes to act as a full-authority agent for the countries east of the Western Regions to trade with each other, and the Sabbath will open a city as a concentration point for trade between the two sides, and the tax rate will be shared between the two sides.

Fifth, the Rest Empire hopes that the Western Regions can unconditionally open the border gates, allowing the rest of the merchants to enter the countries east of the Western Regions for trade, and at the same time, the rest of the country will also open the border to allow the merchants of the Western Regions and the Han Dynasty to enter the territory of the rest of the country for trade unconditionally.

Sixth, the Anxi Empire hoped that its own merchants would enter the territory of the Han Dynasty to trade, and the tax rate would be lowered a little. (Note, the tax rate of merchants in the Han Dynasty is nearly fifty percent of profits, which is very high) Although there are still some bits and pieces of total treaties, the most important thing is these, and because of this letter of invitation and peace, most of the core members of Northern Xinjiang also gathered in the Zhengda Guangming Hall of the Shenwang Mansion.

In the Guangming Hall of Zhengda Guangming Palace, Liu Tai was wearing a purple five-clawed dragon robe and sitting on a dragon chair made of pure gold, his eyes looked down, with a little anger in his plainness, and at this time, in the middle of the hall, both sides were full of civil and military officials from the northern Xinjiang, the left was Wen, the right was Wu, the representative of the civil officials was Xun Yu, and the representative of the military attache was Gao Shun!

At this time, standing in front of Liu Tai was a brocade guard wearing a colorful fish scale suit, this brocade guard's face was tender and white, and his voice was as beautiful as a yellow warbler, like a song!

Jin Yiwei, female!!

Yes, it's a woman!

Liu Tai doesn't like eunuchs, and after becoming the queen, there must be eunuchs in the palace to serve, after all, the beauties of the harem can't let some long-handed male surnamed Jinyi guards guard them, right? At that time, if Liu Tai is brought a green hat, Liu Tai doesn't know where to cry.

So Liu Tai came up with the idea of replacing eunuchs with women, these women are all carefully trained personnel of the Dragon and Tiger Second Group without exception, not only have better appearances, but also have very strong martial arts, not to mention the literacy and hyphenation, when they were trained, they were prepared for today.

This new batch of female surnamed Jinyiwei is also known as the Phoenix Servant Jinyiwei! The number of Huang Shi Jinyi guards is all composed of female surnames, the number is initially set at one hundred, the age is limited to ten to thirty-five years old, and after the age of thirty-five, you must leave the palace, this is to avoid the problem of the dictatorship of the close servants, Liu Tai knows very well that the little people around the king are the easiest to control the king.

The commander of the Phoenix Guard, known as the Captain of the Phoenix Guard, has a military rank equivalent to that of the army commander, and closely protects Liu Tai's safety, of course, there are also some special services, which is needless to mention.

Although it is said that the Huangwang Palace's phoenix attendants and brocade guards are equivalent to the duties of eunuchs, the official titles and responsibilities of the eunuchs in the Eastern Han Dynasty are very different, the most important duty is to protect the harem concubines, and the rest of the patrols or something, there are also at the same time, because of the limited scale, it can't become a big climate.

In addition to protecting the safety of the backyard, the captain of the Huang squire who accompanied Liu Tai also had the right to read out the edict and other local documents, which depends on what Liu Tai thinks, but in the initial charter, all the royal edicts were read by the captain of the Huang squire.

Standing in front of Liu Tai at this time, wearing a colorful fish scale suit, and reading out the peace document is Liu Ling, the captain of the Phoenix Attendant, Liu Ling is a native of Youzhou, the sister of Liu Xiong, the former head of the Si Lilong Group, and the girl who begged Liu Tai for a reward back then.

Since Si Li was turned into a ghost domain by Dong Zhuo, the existence of the Si Li Dragon Group is no longer necessary, except for leaving some necessary people, most of them have been transferred to other regions by Liu Tai, and the scale can be said to have been reduced many times, of course, the original Si Li Branch is the second group in the entire Dragon Group, and the scale is very large, even if it is reduced, the scale will not be smaller than some remote states and counties.

Liu Ling's original surname was Chen, since joining the dragon group, he unconditionally changed his name to Liu, is the first batch of backbone personnel of the dragon group, martial arts are not bad, and Liu Tai has seen many times, this time the division of the dragon group decomposition, Liu Ling was the first to be recruited into the Phoenix Guard, after a period of testing, was appointed by Liu Tai as the captain of the Phoenix Guard, and his status in the Northern Xinjiang regime is not known to be many times higher than that of his brother Liu Xiong.

At least he is one of the core figures of the Northern Xinjiang regime.

"Your Majesty, all the documents for peace have been read." Liu Ling's delicate face seemed to be a little cold as frost, turned her head, bowed to Liu Tai and said.

It's not that Liu Ling is in a bad mood, but that she must be serious in this Zhengda Guangming Palace, and the female surname has already suffered a lot of criticism in the place of the eunuch, if she laughs again, it is obviously unreasonable.

"Stand down." A very cold voice came out of Liu Tai's mouth, and I saw Liu Tai with a cold light in his eyes, sitting on the dragon seat made of pure gold, and said to the civil and military officials: "All the princes should tell their opinions, the widow wants to hear what you mean!" ”

The civil and military officials looked at each other, a little at a loss, even a little sensible people understand that this peace document, there is no sincerity, the reason why the peace letter is called peace, the main thing is to discuss how to pay compensation and cut land and other matters, but the peace book actually lists so many conditions, but also to open the border and reduce taxes

"Your Majesty, the ambition of the wolf son is clearly revealed, if it is true and the terms in the book, we will suffer a big loss!" Chen Gong stepped out of the queue with a pale face, and said to Liu Tai!

"Oh? What does the public mean by this? I saw Liu Tai squint his eyes and asked loudly, in fact, Liu Tai's heart was like a mirror, and the conditions proposed by Rest were not a sum!

These terms are obviously an agreement on mutual commerce, if Liu Tai really agrees, then the rest of the country will take advantage of the big one, you know, the rest of the merchants pass through the Western Regions and enter the territory of the Han to do business, not only have to go through the exploitation of various countries in the Western Regions, but also have to bear the harsh treatment of the merchants by the Han Dynasty, even if all the goods are sold, after they can go back, after going back again, after the exploitation of the countries in the Western Regions, there will not be much gold and silver under them.

"Your Majesty, for example, the first article, if it is really according to the meaning of rest, the entire territory of the Western Regions belongs to my northern frontier, it means that in the next few decades, my northern frontier will face the rebellion of the countries of the Western Regions anytime and anywhere, and the military expenditure will be astronomical at that time.

"Heh, it's better to admit it, isn't it, rebellion? If they dare to rebel, the widows don't mind turning the Western Regions into a new state for my great Han! Liu Tai smiled, this one is Liu Tai's favorite, what if he has other thoughts in peace? Liu Tai didn't even think about letting the Western Regions countries continue to exist.

"But" Chen Gong raised his head and looked at Liu Tai with a surprised face, this kind of behavior, if he met a more strict monarch, it would be disrespectful, but Chen Gong knew that Liu Tai would not embarrass himself, and he didn't pay too much attention.

"There's nothing to do, the first one is put aside for the time being, let's talk about the rest of the regulations." With a wave of his hand, he directly interrupted Chen Gong's words, Liu Tai didn't want to waste time on the first article, there was no need at all.

"Your Majesty, the minister thinks that 50,000 catties of gold is too little, and the rest of the people are sending beggars? As far as the minister knows, the Rest Empire entered the Western Regions for a year, and only seized tens of thousands of carts of money, grain and property from the former Xiongnu garrisons in various countries, all of which were hoarded in the rest barracks. Guo Jia, who was among the ministers, stepped forward and said to Liu Tai.

Guo Jia originally managed the Kyushu Commercial Bank, and he attached great importance to money, and was once known as the little god of wealth in northern Xinjiang for a long time.

In Liu Tai's opinion, the gold for resting compensation is indeed too little, 50,000 catties of gold? Don't be in a hurry for Liu Tai to go south to fight a fraction of the autumn wind, if the rest is really so stingy, Liu Tai doesn't mind going west to the Western Regions in person to preside over the overall situation.

"Seventy percent is too much, after all, the property is someone else's now, so let's do it, I will take sixty percent in the northern Xinjiang, and I want to tell Wen Chou, if Anxi is unwilling to hand over his property, then even if he is stalked, he must leave the army of Anxi's Eastern Expedition in the Western Regions, and now that Anxi has run out of rations, the widow doesn't believe that they can hold out for long." A smile hung on the corner of Liu Tai's mouth, and he nodded with satisfaction at Guo Jia and said, Sixty percent, it is indeed not much, with Liu Taiyan's surname of plucking, it is not impossible to get ninety!

"There was silence in the hall, and when Guo Jia said a seventy percent, most of the officials were already speechless, although Liu Tai lowered one percent, but you must know that the rest army has plundered the Western Regions for a year, and what a huge wealth has been gathered? Sixty percent is an astronomical number!!

"Leave the third article aside for the time being, allies and enemies are just a piece of waste paper, and the widow is not interested in talking nonsense, so let's talk about the fourth article." Glancing around at everyone, seeing that no one in the group stood up to speak, Liu Tai took the lead and said directly.

Xun Yu, who was the head of the civil officials, was listed, and saw that Xun Yu's face was indifferent, and he couldn't see any expression, so he arched his hand to Liu Tai and said: "In the opinion of the minister, the fourth article can be agreed, but the trading city must be set up in the Western Regions, after all, in peace, my Han merchants will not have any sense of security, and in the Western Regions, with my God-given army guarding it, there are no forces that dare to come to find trouble." ”

"Well, just do what you want, tell Dianfen that the matter of agency is too big, and it is not good for the widow to agree directly, if she wants a deadline, tell her that this king will give her an answer after discussing with the major princes of the world." Liu Tai nodded, knowing the important surname of the trade city, if it is set up in the Western Regions, it will bring great benefits to the recovery of the Western Regions, if it is set up in peace, don't even think about it!

"No!" Xun Yu surrendered his order, but Xun Yu did not retreat, and continued to ask Liu Tai: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty forgot to ask, where is this interconnected trade city located in the Western Regions?" Is it the former Western Regions Protectorate? ”

Liu Tai frowned, pressed his temple with the index finger of his right hand, glanced around at the people sitting down, and found that none of them came out to say their thoughts, and he was a little unhappy, but Liu Tai didn't say anything, after all, everyone's opinions are different, and this matter is related to the control of Northern Xinjiang over the Western Regions, and it cannot be arbitrarily decided.

"In this way, abandon the original Western Regions Protectorate, set Jingjue Wangcheng as the Xizhou Governor's Office, open the Assassination Mansion, appoint Wen Chou as the Xizhou Assassin History, and his staff Ji Liang is engaged in the governance of Xizhou, responsible for Wen Chou's handling of the affairs of the Western Regions." With a roll of his eyes, Liu Tai suddenly decided to change the name of the Western Regions to Xizhou, so that the countries of the Western Regions would know the bottom in advance, so as to facilitate Liu Tai's rule over the Western Regions.

Although Liu Tai's move is a bit too hasty, but at this time it is the best time to establish a state in the Western Regions, you must know that the countries in the Western Regions are now in great decline, and they have no ability to resist the rule of the Northern Frontier, if these countries can recover their national strength, it will be much more troublesome to deal with.

"What does the king mean?" The hundred officials were stunned, and they didn't understand what Liu Tai meant, if Liu Tai wanted to set up a state, it would be wrong to appoint two officials, if there was no state, what would he do at this time and in governance?

"It's very simple, Dingzhou does not govern the state, in the name of the Western Regions will be included in the rule first, the right to govern will not be taken for the time being, when Liangzhou becomes the property in the hands of my northern Xinjiang, it is not bad to send troops to the Western Regions, the most important thing at this time is to let the kings of those small countries have a number in their hearts, if they dare to be dissatisfied with the name of Xizhou, the widow will give Wenchou full authority to deal with it." Liu Tai's eyes were blazing and he said to the hundred officials in the hall, with an evil smile on the corner of his mouth, as if the Western Regions had become Liu Tai's Chinese food.

Glancing at everyone, thinking about what should be added, Liu Tai said again, "Let's do it, add Wen Chou as the governor of Xizhou, and have the right to cut first and then play, within three years, the widow wants Wen Chou to obey the Western Regions as a whole!" ”

The "Metropolitan Governor" hundred officials gasped, Wen Chou, the Metropolitan Governor, is much stronger than Dian Wei, and at least three years of the right to cut first and then play, which is equivalent to saying that Wen Chou will become the uncrowned king of the Western Regions!

"Isn't this seal a bit high?" The officials present all thought so in their hearts, but they did not speak out to dissuade them, after all, Liu Tai's control of the army was unquestionable, if Wen Chou dared to have any thoughts, the fastest rebellion would definitely be the more than 100,000 Tianci troops under his command.

"Wen Ruo, what do you think?" Liu Tai looked at Xun Yu with a smile, touched the dragon head ring on the ring finger of his left hand, and smiled a little playfully, as if he was asking Xun Yu's opinion.

Xun Yu raised his head, looked at Liu Tai without the slightest dodge, nodded slightly and said: "The king is clever, the so-called suspicious people don't need to be used, and the use of people is not suspicious, since General Wen can fight with three times the rest of the expeditionary force to fight helplessly, naturally he has extraordinary ability, and the minister agrees with Wang Shangjia to add General Wen as the governor of the capital!" ”

"There is no doubt about employing people!" Squinting his eyes, Liu Tai looked at Xun Yu, and saw a smile on the corner of Xun Yu's mouth, as if what he said was more like Xun Yu himself.

"Haha, there is no doubt about employing people, so let's do it, the future affairs of the Western Regions will be all up to you Wen Ruo!" Liu Tai laughed, stood up and said to Xun Yu, although Xun Yu used to contact Emperor Ling behind Liu Tai's back, but Liu Tai understood very well that Xun Yu's original intention was good, and Liu Tai still learned about this from Xun Yu.

"That's not right, is it?" Xun Yu's face was stunned, and he was suddenly in a hurry, the entire northern Xinjiang was pressed on Xun Yu's body, if you add the Western Regions, wouldn't Xun Yu be exhausted to death?

"Huh?" Liu Tai frowned, saw Xun Yu's bitter gourd face, thought about it, and understood Xun Yu's bitterness, nodded and said: "Then you want Zhong Yu to assist you, although the affairs of the Western Regions are cumbersome, but in fact there are not many, ordinary trivial matters, you don't have to deal with them, as long as you manage the logistics." ”

"Nuo" nodded with a wry smile, seeing Liu Tai's serious appearance, he knew that he would definitely not be able to push it, who called Xun Yu to manage the money in Northern Xinjiang, and he couldn't refuse if he wanted to.

"Yuan Chang, you won't refuse a widow, will you?" Liu Tai looked at Zhong Yu with a smile on the corner of his mouth, in the past few years, Zhong Miao has changed a lot of views on Liu Tai, including Northern Xinjiang, and Zhong Miao will interfere in general things, not only Xun Yu's left and right hands, but also one of the real big names in Northern Xinjiang.

"Wechen takes orders." Zhong Xuan's face was flat, and he took a step out of the queue and said to Liu Tai, although Zhong Xuan has been appointed, he is still a little worried about Liu Tai's kidnapping incident back then, after all, the best thing for a civil official is to save face.

"Well, let's step back for the time being, there is no need to discuss the fifth and sixth articles anymore, it's no problem to open a checkpoint, but open the entire territory of the Western Regions, don't think about it, tell Dianfen that the abacus should not be too good, the widows and the ministers of Northern Xinjiang are not fools, and the sixth article is the same, if Dianfen is sure to persuade Dong Zhuo, the widows have no opinion." Liu Tai stood in front of the pure gold dragon throne and said bluntly to the hundreds of officials below.

"Nuo" A long sound, I saw that all the officials bowed to Liu Tai, no one had an opinion, in fact, before going to the palace, the officials had already done a good job of discussing in private, understanding that the officials were not qualified to say anything in the Western Regions today, since this is the case, Liu Tai will say whatever he wants.
