Chapter 249: Suppressing the Chiyang Kingdom
As soon as Si Chen returned to the Fengming Country Post House, Chang Xi greeted her and said to her with a smile:
"Just now, someone from Longxi Kingdom came, and Emperor Longxi promised His Highness."
Si Chen was not surprised, paused for a moment, and said: "Tomorrow I will go to the Longxi Country Post House to talk with Emperor Longxi in detail, you go to Yanyun Country, the price can be raised a little bit, it is best to use this silver to fill in the military expenses for Long Xiguo." ”
Buying copper from Cangqiu Country to make copper coins is a necessary expense for a country, although Cangqiu Country may take the opportunity to raise prices, Si Chen also admitted it. However, the garrison expenses of Long Xi Kingdom are additional expenses, Feng Ming Kingdom has just finished the war, and there is no spare money, this money must be counted in the account of Yan Yun Kingdom, otherwise Feng Ming Kingdom will not be able to afford it.
Chang Xi nodded in response.
Since it has been promised, Feng Ming Kingdom will not give Long Xiguo a chance to change his fortune, and at dusk on the second day, all the details of the agreement have been listed, and the two countries have officially formed an alliance.
His Royal Highness the Eighth Highness of the Cangqiu Kingdom finally appeared, and the Feng Ming Kingdom and the Cangqiu Kingdom signed a document to purchase copper from the Cangqiu Kingdom.
It's just that something went wrong in the Yanyun Kingdom, which should have been the smoothest, and Duanmu Yan took advantage of the fire to rob and demanded that Feng Yingguo not use rent, but sell all the Yanshan mines to him. It is unheard of to sell a mine on one's own soil to another country.
But Duanmu Yan just didn't let go, Chang Xi talked with him for two days, and Duanmu Yan insisted on buying the Yanshan mine, otherwise the previous agreement would be invalid.
Once Duanmu repents, the documents signed with Cangqiu Kingdom will be in danger. Long Xiguo's side also thought that Feng Ming Kingdom was pulling Yan Yun Kingdom, so he took the risk to accept Feng Ming Kingdom's proposal, if Feng Ming Kingdom and Yan Yun Kingdom collapsed because of the salt mine, it was very likely to affect the alliance with Long Xi Kingdom.
Duanmu Yan calculated this point before taking advantage of the fire to rob.
Si Chen thought about it for a long time, but in the end, he still broke his teeth and swallowed blood, and agreed to the bandit request of Yanyun Kingdom.
In this way, Yanyun Kingdom only needs to pay Feng Mingguo a lump sum, instead of paying endlessly every year, and Feng Mingguo has no way to increase the price later.
This sum of money has been earned again.
Si Chen lost her money, and she was on fire in her heart, but she had no choice but to admit it.
The Feng Ming Kingdom and the other three kingdoms have frequent private contacts, and it is impossible for the Chiyang Kingdom not to know about such a big movement. Finally, Emperor Chiyang couldn't sit still, and when Si Chen was thinking about the matter with Yanyun Kingdom, the palace suddenly sent someone to say that the precious concubine missed her eldest sister and wanted to invite Si Chen into the palace to talk to her.
Si Xuerou didn't have time to hide from Si Chen, how could she take the initiative to find her, and the instructive behind it was clear at a glance.
Probably Emperor Chiyang didn't think about covering it up, he thought that if he invited Si Chen to an interview in this way, Feng Mingguo would run around and flatter.
Too late for it.
If it was when he first arrived in Chiyang Kingdom, Chiyang Emperor was willing to interview her, Si Chen didn't care about flattering him, but now, Si Chen changed his mind.
She declined the invitation, citing ill health.
After the agreement between the Feng Ming Kingdom and the Three Kingdoms, it was Long Xi Guo who took the lead and demanded that the Chiyang Kingdom immediately convene the Five Kingdoms, because the countries were ready to leave for China, and no country was willing to waste time waiting for nothing in the Chiyang Kingdom.
The Three Kingdoms, who had originally been observant before coming to the Chiyang Kingdom, discovered a new way to obtain more lucrative benefits under the mediation of the Feng Ying Kingdom, so they broke the clear balance model established with the Chiyang Kingdom before.
The pattern of the mainland has been redivided, and the Chiyang State has lost the watchdog of the Nanyue State, and there is no need for other countries to obey the Chiyang State dialect, because that will not benefit them.
The Chiyang Kingdom was taken aback by the tough attitude of the Three Kingdoms, and was forced to convene the Five Congresses under pressure.
This time, Si Chen led the courtiers of the Feng Netherworld Kingdom to attend the Five Congresses.
Before the meeting began, Si Chen unilaterally annulled the copper purchase documents signed between the former South Vietnamese State and the Chiyang State, as well as all the commercial and trade agreements.
Chiyang was dumbfounded.
Emperor Chiyang's face was very ugly.
With the acquiescence of Emperor Chiyang, Mu Yanghou of Chiyang Kingdom jumped up and scolded Si Chen as a "demon girl", saying that she was "stealing the Nanyue Kingdom", and that she was the culprit who stirred up the chaos in the west and trapped the people in the west. In short, he condemned Feng Mingguo with a tone of compassion for the local people, as if the Chiyang Kingdom had done so righteously.
Si Chen glanced at him and didn't say anything.
Mu Yanghou was there alone, foaming at the mouth, and trying to draw the other three countries into the same enemy.
It's a pity that the other three kingdoms are all like old monks, and no one pays attention to him.
Seeing this, Emperor Chiyang's face became more and more gloomy.
He felt that in the last meeting of the Four Congresses, the attitude of the other three countries towards the Feng Ming Kingdom was still reserved, but this time the Five States Congress was held, and the Three Kingdoms completely fell to the meaning of the Feng Ming Kingdom. In other words, in just a few days, the Feng Ming Kingdom had already persuaded the other three countries, and the four countries actually united their front and stood on the opposite side of the Chiyang Kingdom.
The Chiyang Kingdom had been the overlord of the Seven Kingdoms for a hundred years, and being isolated was something they had never thought of and had never happened at all. It has been touted for a hundred years to lead to the arrogance of the Chiyang Kingdom, and the arrogant and arrogant Chiyang Kingdom suddenly suffered a setback in the various countries, and the people of the Chiyang Kingdom were unbelievable, and they were at a loss for a moment.
Feng Mingguo left the meeting early.
Mu Yanghou scolded her over and over again, and there were no new tricks, Si Chen was tired of hearing it.
The other three countries originally came to watch the play, but now they saw that one of the protagonists on the stage had a strong attitude to take a curtain call, and the rest of the one had a gloomy face and was not good-looking, so they got up one after another and left the meeting.
Long Xiguo was the second to get up and retire after Feng Mingguo said goodbye.
Now that he has agreed to garrison troops, Long Xiguo and Feng Mingguo are grasshoppers tied to a rope, not to mention that the world now knows that they used to be husband and wife, and many suspicions are more outrageous than the facts, so he doesn't have to continue to maintain superficial friendship with Chiyang Kingdom, hypocrisy and useless.
Shen Run walked behind Si Chen.
Si Chen brushed his hair bun with his hand, and the golden hairpin inserted in his hair suddenly slipped off and fell to the ground, just in front of Shen Run's feet.
Si Chen stopped and turned to look.
Shen Run stared at the golden hairpin that fell in front of his feet, he wanted to grit his teeth again, this woman's every move was purposeful.
After a pause, he bent down and picked up the golden hairpin.
Si Chen stepped forward and stood in front of him. She didn't reach out, her intent was obvious.
Shen Run looked at her with a cold face.
All this happened inside the gate of Yuchang Palace, in full view of everyone. Shen Run's back was to the conference seat, covering most of Si Chen's body, and people couldn't see their expressions, only their movements.
Although Shen Run was very annoyed by her deep scheming, after a moment of silence, he still grimaced, raised his hand, and inserted the golden hairpin into her thick black bun.
The corners of Si Chen's lips hooked up in a vague arc, as if she was very satisfied, she turned around and walked away.
Shen Run became more and more angry.
Behind him, the faces of the people of Chiyang who were still sitting stupidly at the conference table were extremely ugly.
Long Xiguo and Feng Mingguo are really a relationship between husband and wife.
