Chapter 817: Return to the capital

Follow the normal process.

Wanting to meet Luo Ji is obviously not a simple matter.

After all, the emperor himself is not something he wants to see.

Even if you're a princess of another country.

It's too easy to see, but it's weird.

So, in the face of Mia's what should I do to meet the King of Conquest? 'When in doubt.

Xu Yuan was quite kind enough to help her run a long process.

In Xiyuan City, Luo Ji only had a one-day rest.

The appearance of the gray elf princess was not enough for him to make adjustments to his schedule.

For him, it was the right thing to do to get back to Spiegel.

After all, after such a wave, it is already late autumn in the season of civilization in all worlds.

While checking the autumn harvest, we also need to prepare for the coming winter.

At this time, it can be said that it is the busiest time of the year for the civilization of all worlds.

He felt like he was never going back.

Lu Yang and the secretaries were going crazy.

After leaving Nishihara Castle.

The troops of the elven clan directly diverted to the south, intending to return to the elven province.

And the troops of the orc clan naturally want to return to the orc province.

The reduction in the size of the troops can be said to have greatly improved the efficiency of the march.

Let Rayong lead the troops back and turn back.

As for Luo Ji himself, he rode the fire of the prairie and rode a group of guards to take the first step, planning to rush back to Mirror City as soon as possible.

This time, he has indeed been away long enough.

Now that I have returned to Spiegel City, my emotions are also inexplicably filled with emotion.

The news of the triumph of the Western Expedition has undoubtedly spread throughout the entire city.

Basking in the cheers of the people.

Luo Ji rode the fire all the way back to the palace.

After a simple bath and change of clothes, it was transferred directly to the council hall.

I have to say that as an assistant officer, Lu Yang is undoubtedly excellent.

During Luo Ji's absence, he still managed all affairs in an orderly manner.

Even after Luo Ji came back, he had already sorted out all the matters that needed to be done in person.

"Your Majesty, this is the harvest report that was just sent by the cities a few days ago, as well as the situation of the grain hoarding in the cities, and Weichen has all sorted it out."

As he spoke, Lu Yang quickly presented a report.

There are two or three pages in the report, and while Luo Ji is looking through the report, Lu Yang immediately reports something else.

In fact, these things have basically been resolved.

For example, in autumn, many people are replaced with the flu because of the change in temperature.

Now that so much time has passed, the condition has actually been under control a long time ago.

The Department of Medical Research has also developed a cure for the disease.

Judging from the results, there is no need to report this matter.

But he still had to report.

After all, in many cases, even if you take care of things yourself, but keep the monarch in the dark, it is very taboo.

And to report the matter to their monarch is to fulfill his duty as a courtier.

One after another.

That's a lot going on.

At the same time that Lu Yang was reporting these things one by one.

Luo Ji also read the harvest report in his hand.

There is no doubt that with the blessing of the effect of Kyushu Ding's 'five grains harvest', their civilization of the Ten Thousand Worlds is another bumper year.

However, the stockpiling of grain in the granaries of the cities did not increase significantly.

On the one hand, it was because Luo Ji's westward expedition consumed a lot of food.

On the other hand, it was because during this year, they sold a lot of grain to the Hanar tribe on the steppe.

Thinking of this, Luo Ji naturally couldn't help but ask about the battle situation on the grassland.

And it turned out to be just when he was thinking so.

Guo Jia came......

At this time, Guo Jia can be said to have come at the right time.

There is no doubt that Guo Jia came here to report on the affairs on the grassland.

The time when Luo Ji was not in the capital.

There's a lot going on on the prairie.

First of all, as Luo Ji expected, after the beginning of spring, the Hanar tribe suffered a big loss at the hands of the Zarkhan steppe country.

It can be said that it is a hard heel.

The kind that broke his head and bled out.

Later, in order to compete with the Zarkhan steppe state.

The people of the Hanar tribe have bought a lot of food and weapons from them.

During this period, it was natural to inevitably ask them to send troops from the Ten Thousand Worlds Civilization to assist them in defeating the Zarkhan Steppe State.

And for this category of requests.

Guo Jia, who was in charge of coordinating the grassland war situation at that time, undoubtedly refused all of them.

The Hanar tribe who bought a large amount of weapons, food and grass.

Although to a certain extent, the strength has been enhanced.

But it is no match for that Siqin's strategy.

In many encounters, he was always at a disadvantage.

In addition, compared with the Hanar tribe, the Zarkhan steppe country can be called a big business, and Siqin has a large number of troops in his hands.

On the grassland, the forces of both sides fought all the way from spring to early autumn.

After months of continuous fighting, the Hanar tribe could no longer hold on.

Seeing that the Hanar tribe is about to end.

Guo Jia issued a last-minute appointment.

Ordered Bai Ze and Bu Rigude to lead 3,000 horsemen deep into the grassland to deter each other.

Siqin, who was cautious by nature, really quickly gathered his troops after perceiving the soldiers and horses of the Ten Thousand Worlds Civilization.

So far, it can be said that everything is expected by Luo Ji.

Immediately after learning from Guo Jia's mouth, the other party sent an envoy.

When they expressed their willingness to pay tribute of 3,000 sheep and 1,000 cattle every year, in exchange for the friendship of their civilization in the world.

Luo Ji had to take another look at that Siqin.

And then I wanted to get rid of him even more.

A grassland man who knows how to learn from others' strengths, is also ambitious, and can bend and stretch.

Keeping him is also a threat no matter how you think about it.

"When did that report arrive?"

In the middle of his thoughts, Luo Ji asked Guo Jia out loud.

"Half a month ago, Your Majesty."

At that time, the news of the victory of the Western Expedition had already reached the capital.

So Guo Jia, who received this report, his first reaction was to drag it and wait until Luo Ji came back to make a decision.

Anyway, before they give an answer, the Nachar Khan steppe country will definitely not dare to act rashly.

Luo Ji, who got this answer, nodded.

3,000 sheep and 1,000 cattle a year?

That's a big temptation.

Accept this batch of tribute, and then take advantage of the other party's relaxation to destroy the other party.

Luo Ji did not deny that he had such thoughts.

But if you think about it, it's still not suitable.

His approach was treacherous, but it was in the highest interest.

But as the ruler of a great civilization, Luo Ji has a lot to think about now.

Let's say the human heart.

The human heart is a delicate thing.

As a ruler, Luo Ji knew that he had to take this into account.

There are no impermeable walls in this world.

Once you do.

The people's impression of him will begin to change.

And undoubtedly towards the bad side.

Every people wants their monarch to be strong, invincible!

In this way, they can defend their homes and families in the face of their enemies.

But at the same time, they want their monarch to be upright, wise, and benevolent.

In other words, it has to be an almost perfect image.

Just like the image of Luo Ji in the minds of the people now.

But once this perfect image began to shatter.

Then a lot of trouble will follow.

The update is sent, thanks to the book friend 'Drunk Dream Often' for the reward and the book friend 'Qianxi Snow' and 'Blood, Snow' monthly passes!
