Because of the relationship between the two sides, this Spring Festival is busy and anxious, and there is no celebratory and peaceful atmosphere in Ji Qingchen's mind. And as soon as the Spring Festival is over, he will lead an army of 200,000 to Caozhou north.

Therefore, he came to Wei Mansion today specifically to make a deal with Wei Huang.

The things he bought were naturally horses, which was a privilege given to him by Emperor Yan, and it was also a burden given to him by Emperor Yan.

Seeing that spring will begin in a while, when the Beirong elite cavalry goes south, if he can't form a strong cavalry, I'm afraid that there will be a crisis in the Caozhou defense line.

Because he had a previous transaction with Wei Huang in Caozhou City, when they met this time, there was no longer the politeness between the two of them, and when they arrived at the Wei Mansion and sat down, Ji Qingchen said like Wei Ran, "This king is here today, just to make a deal with your Wei Mansion, I don't know if Lu Dao is a brother can be the master?" ”

He didn't say what to do all at once, because it involved the issue of war horses, this is something that cannot be ambiguous, he is not willing to do it too abruptly, if Wei Huang does not have this right, he is not ready to say what kind of business it is.

"As long as it's King's Landing, I'm in charge of everything, no matter how big the amount or what kind of business it is. I don't know what His Highness wants to do with our Wei family? Wei Huang asked with interest.

A dignified prince, or the hot King of Northern Liao in Dayan, wants to do a deal with himself, this deal is definitely not small, there are many benefits, but the risks are also very large, Wei Huang himself can't be cautious!

"War Horse!" Ji Qingchen said lightly.

"How many?" Wei Huang asked in surprise.

Seeing Ji Qingchen's calm appearance, he was already a little frightened, and he purchased war horses privately, which is a capital crime! Don't say that you Ji Qingchen is the king of Northern Liao and the prince of Dayan, but even the prince of Dayan doesn't dare to do this, right? Wei Huang thought so because he didn't know that Emperor Yan gave Ji Qingchen this right, but it was just a military secret of Dayan, so he naturally had to keep it secret, Wei Huang was a member of the Wei family, and he naturally wouldn't know about it.

"As many horses as you Wei can provide, this king can buy as many horses." Ji Qingchen said magnanimously.

"This-" Wei Huang was choked, he knew that Ji Qingchen's identity would not lie, he thought that Ji Qingchen only needed a few thousand war horses, so he could do it and solve the problem. But now depending on what people mean, they need a lot of war horses, maybe tens of thousands, which makes Wei Huang embarrassed.

This is not to say that he cannot be the master, the family sent him to King's Landing, that is, let him be in charge of all the business of King's Landing. But the number of horse problems is small, he can make decisions, and the number is so large, he doesn't dare to agree to it. Because he first had to determine how many war horses he could provide, before he could give Ji Qingchen an answer.

"Please give a number of how many horses Your Highness needs, so that I also have a foundation in my heart." Wei Huang asked, his expression now very serious.

"One hundred and fifty thousand war horses." Ji Qingchen said, "It still needs to be delivered within a month, if it can be done, this king will let the money be sent to the mansion now." ”

Wei Huang's face turned white! 150,000 war horses, what is this concept? That's a cavalry of 150,000 men! This - the king of Northern Liao is also too ......!

"Your Highness, I'm afraid it will disappoint you, the Wei clan can only provide you with a maximum of 30,000 war horses now." Wei Huang said in strict terms, "There will be no more, this is still Wei's own family background." ”

"Thirty thousand?" Ji Qingchen smiled lightly and said, "Is this a joke to this king for brother?" ”

"Don't dare, it's the truth." Wei Huang said that when it comes to family interests, when it comes to business, he will not be stage frightened because of Ji Qingchen's identity.

"At least 100,000 war horses, delivered within a month, this is the bottom line of this king." Ji Qingchen said unhurriedly, "Money, this king will send it to your mansion in the afternoon." ”

"Your Highness—" Wei Huang was anxious, but before he finished speaking, he heard Ji Qingchen say, "This is not a business with you, it is an order for your Wei clan." Dayan is attacked on both sides, and has reached a dangerous situation where it is embattled on all sides, everyone is fighting for this country, and it is time for you Wei to do something. ”

"Of course, there are still 50,000 war horses left, and this king will solve it by himself, so if it doesn't work, he will buy it from the Beirong people." Ji Qingchen said, "This king doesn't believe it, Beirong doesn't sell it to this king, they have so many war horses that don't sell for money, what can they do if they keep it!" ”

After listening to Ji Qingchen's words, Wei Huang's heart almost exploded, now during the war between Beirong and Dayan, His Royal Highness in front of him is so bold that he wants to buy war horses from Beirong people, isn't this a meat bun and a dog that will never return? Isn't this taking your own money to support the cavalry of the Beijungs?

"For brother, don't be stunned, go and prepare!" Ji Qingchen said to Wei Huang, who was stunned, and then ignored Wei Huang, who had woken up, and left.

Wei Huang looked at Ji Qingchen's back as he left in a daze, and didn't say a word.

"Third uncle, he's gone?" Just when Wei Huang was stunned, Wei Ran appeared in front of Wei Huang.

"What kind of man is he, you say?" Wei Huang asked Wei Ran, "Dare to buy war horses from Beirong?" ”

"He's a guy who can do anything for what he wants." Wei Ran said, "He said that if he wants to buy a war horse from Beirong, he will definitely do it." ”

"For what?" Wei Huang asked his niece a little puzzled.

"Because he is in great need of a cavalry now, a cavalry strong enough to deal with the cavalry of the departed country." Wei Ran said affirmatively.

"He is now the Governor of Northern Liao, and the cavalry under his command has exceeded the number of Ningzhou Iron Cavalry, and he is already the most elite cavalry in Dayan, are you still not satisfied?" Wei Huang was even more puzzled.

"Third uncle, do you say that as a disciple of Li Qingyi, he will look down on these cavalry of Dayan?" Wei Ran asked. Seeing that his third uncle didn't speak, Wei Ran continued, "I'm afraid it's Dayan's proudest Yulin cavalry, and in his eyes, it's not an elite, let alone the blue wolf cavalry and the cavalry of Caozhou who are stationed now." ”

"So, his ambition is not small!" Wei Huang sneered, obviously optimistic about Ji Qingchen.

"No, he has very little ambition, and the reason why he does it is only for a woman." Wei Ran smiled sadly, "For him, with this woman, he will fight for more things for her." ”

"Women?" Wei Huang asked blankly.

"Leaving the country princess Wei Shu." Wei Ran replied, "When he left the country as a hostage, he grew up with his childhood sweetheart, Princess Anle." ”

"Ha Lu Ha-" Wei Huang smiled, he felt that his niece's words were too unrealistic, Ji Qingchen wanted to urgently form a cavalry, just for a woman? He couldn't do that. They Wei can provide 100,000 war horses, but he said 30,000 directly, because he didn't want Ji Qingchen's strength to be too strong, so as to limit the development of his nephew Ji Zhao and not threaten Ji Zhao. But now Wei Ran said that Ji Qingchen needs so many war horses and such a large number of cavalry, but it is only for one woman?

How could he believe this ridiculous conclusion?

"Wei Ran! Looks like you're still too young! Wei Huang sighed and said, "Men want strength in order to get more power, and Ji Qingchen is no exception." Maybe like you said, he wants to be stronger for a woman, but that's not the real reason, the real reason is that he wants more power. There is no man in this world who does not like power, let alone give up power for the sake of a woman. ”

"Maybe!" Wei Ran didn't want to argue with his third uncle, so he changed the topic and said, "Does the third uncle give him 100,000 war horses?" ”

"Can you not give it?" Wei Huang said helplessly, "With Ji Qingchen's temperament, if we don't give it to him, his eight hundred cavalry battalion may really want to break through our Wei Mansion." ”

"Is he really that bold?" Wei Ran said disdainfully.

"He didn't dare to do anything to Shangzhou Wei, but if he wanted to demolish this mansion and smash the things in the mansion, he could still do it." Wei Huang said, "You say, will our Wei clan tear up his face with him because of this little problem?" ”

"Hmph, it feels really uncomfortable to be under the fence!" Wei Huang said stupidly.

"It's not just us who are uncomfortable, I'm afraid that among the other six families, except for the Bai family, the remaining five are uncomfortable." Wei Huang sighed and said, "But what can this be? After all, this world is the world of the Ji family, and we are just the courtiers of the Ji family. Seeing that Wei Ran didn't speak, Wei Huang explained, "Eight hundred years of rule have rooted the imperial power of the Ji clan into the hearts of the people of Dayan, and no one can shake it. So if we don't want to be sent under the fence, what we can do is to spare no effort to support a prince who is related to us to ascend the throne and become the emperor. This is the real reason why we support Ji Zhao, even if Ji Zhao is not talented, no matter how unsuitable he is to be a king of tens of thousands. ”

"This is also the real reason why the Seven Great Families know that no matter how new the Emperor ascends the throne, they will not treat them badly, but they are still willing to support a prince to compete for the position of the prince." Wei Huang said.

Wei Ran's eyes were full of surprise, and he looked at his third uncle a little puzzled. Because it was the first time she had heard that her third uncle, who had never had much talent in the family, would say such a thing.

"Isn't that surprising?" Wei Huang smiled.

"Yes!" Wei Ran nodded.

"Because everything I did before was pretended, in preparation for waiting until today to be able to support the King of Wilder." Wei Huang said, seeing that Wei Ran was confused, he continued, "Do you think that the Wei clan will put an incompetent and incompetent disciple back in King's Landing to reassure the Ji clan and the other six great families?" Or put a smart person and let them watch out for it, so that it can be more beneficial to Ji Zhao? ”

After Wei Huang asked, Wei Ran suddenly knew everything.

Now she realized that all the previous actions of her third uncle were all pretended, just to be able to paralyze the Ji royal family and the other six great families, in order to support her sister's son Ji Zhao to live in the East Palace and ascend to the throne of Dayan at a critical moment.

"Third uncle, I'm sorry!" Wei Ran said, because she has always felt that Wei Huang is talentless and a little cowardly, and she looks down on her third uncle in her bones, and now she found out that she misunderstood her third uncle, and only then did she realize that her third uncle was strong and made sacrifices to the family.

"Silly girl, what's there to be sorry for!" Wei Huang smiled, "Isn't this the life that the third uncle has always wanted to live?" ”

"Maybe!" Wei Ran smiled.
