Section 30 Diligence
Seeing Altai's nod of approval, Haybar was secretly happy in his heart, and he continued: "Don't hide it, brother, I have also secretly invited the overlords of the Western Tengger Steppe, the Chidi people and representatives of the Sislo Empire, to come to our meeting, and they have all made it clear that they are willing to support us against the Luope people and our evil neighbor to the east, Li Wufeng, of course, when the time is ripe. And I'm also connecting the Motts with the Sithroes, hoping that they will put aside their old grievances and work together, and we can even provide appropriate assistance when necessary. β
Although Li Wufeng signed an agreement with the Luobei people, they have a lot of grievances, and the contradictions between the two sides can never be resolved in a day or two, so it is impossible to cooperate sincerely, not to mention that there is still a nail of Yinchuan Mansion in the north of Li Wufeng, and there are still many problems in the rule of Northern Luzon, which has restrained him a lot of energy. In addition, Yinchuan Prefecture heard that someone will also come to the meeting this time, and we can also talk about cooperation matters in detail at that time. Haybar smiled confidently.
Altai sighed secretly, this old guy Hayibar is really powerful, he can actually pull the Chidi and the Siathrow people in, and he can also act as a mediator for the Motts and the Siathrows, it seems that he has put a lot of thought into establishing this joint force, but the formation of this force is really as he said, at least it can increase the weight of the foreign negotiations of the five countries of the Western Regions, if one day we can ally with the Motts and the Chidi people, plus the support of the Siathrow Empire and Yinchuan Sun Yuanliang, we may not be able to completely stand on our own.
Thinking of this, Altai finally agreed to Haybar's proposal, nodded and said, "I basically agree with my brother's suggestion, but it's not enough for the two of us to agree, and there are still a few of them." β
Hayibar also nodded and said solemnly: "Yes, this is the first step, we will divide up to find a few of them, I think so, brother, you do more work for His Majesty Wusun Said, here I have to do the work of His Majesty Gaochang Yongge, as for the work of His Majesty Kuqa Sansi, I think we should do it together." β
Seeing that Altai nodded in agreement, Haybar smiled with relief, stood up and stretched out his arms to hug Altai in celebration, and then went out hand in hand.
At the morning court meeting the next day, the economic aid plan for the Northern Luzon region proposed by Tian Yi, the Minister of Finance of the Empire, was finally decided by His Majesty the Emperor himself, and the entire Northern Luzon region was given 8 million imperial gold coins of development funds at a time.
On behalf of the nearly 2 million people of Northern Luzon, Wu Feng expressed his sincere gratitude to His Majesty the Emperor, and at the same time said that the imperial officials of Northern Luzon would certainly not fail to live up to His Majesty's trust and would take this opportunity to strive to develop the local economy and build Northern Luzon into a powerful barrier to the western part of the empire.
In the end, Wu Feng proposed that in view of the fact that he had been stationed in the western frontier of the Western Empire for many years and had been quite tired physically and mentally after many wars, he implored His Majesty the Emperor to agree to recuperate in Yanjing for a period of time, and also hoped that His Majesty the Emperor would approve his vacation, saying that he was going to travel to the Jiangnan region for a period of time, and submitted a note. After soliciting the opinions of Ning Yuanwang, He Zhiqiu and other important ministers, His Majesty the Emperor finally agreed to Wu Feng's request, agreed to let him recuperate in Yanjing for a period of time, and asked him to consider his marriage.
"My lord, I am afraid that it will be difficult for you to completely dispel His Majesty's suspicions by retreating, not to mention that there are many ministers who are dissatisfied with you looking around His Majesty the Emperor. There was not a hint of a smile on Guji's solemn countenance.
This is a secret residence of Gu Ji, and there is an authentic connection with a Gu family's cultural relics calligraphy and painting shop next to it, so Wu Feng chose this place as a secret meeting place with Gu Ji.
"I'm not so naΓ―ve, just this trick can reassure them? His Majesty the Emperor has always been gloomy, if he has a heart, I am afraid it will be difficult for you to dispel his suspicions for a while. But what can I do? I also want to go back sooner, the situation in Northern Luzon has just stabilized, the economy still needs to be rebuilt, and there is still a lot of army building that has not yet been rolled out, and I originally thought that my strength was almost enough, but now it seems that the strength of the army needs to be strengthened. But do you think I can still go through this situation? It is better to write a letter and ask for a vacation, and end up generous. Wu Feng shook his head with a wry smile.
"If you blindly want to return to the northwest now, I'm afraid it can only make His Majesty the Emperor more suspicious, so it's okay, you can also recuperate in the capital, relax yourself, one piece of relaxation is the way of civil and martial arts." This is about to be the spring festival, there are a lot of activities in the capital, there is everything, you can enjoy it to the fullest, as for the northwest and North Luzon, I think there are Xiao Tang and Ling Tianfang in charge, and Su Qin is on the side to assist, there is no big problem. Guji smiled and relieved Wu Feng.
"Alas, that's the only way it can be, I really didn't expect that I would be so hated in this court, and there are so many people attacking me, it seems that I have to reflect on myself. By the way, I think that the intelligence network in our Yanjing is not detailed enough, and sometimes many small details can often reflect some big problems, and I am ready to strengthen the intelligence system in the capital to avoid unnecessary loopholes. Wu Feng said slowly.
"Well, I have also noticed this, Miss Angel and I are limited to our status, and tend to only know about some important affairs of the DPRK and China, and this small aspect is our weakness, and I knew it yesterday when you asked me to pay attention to this aspect. Your suggestion is very good, but you need to choose and nurture these children well, after all, they are too young, and if they do fall into the hands of others, it will be very troublesome. Even the person in charge of choosing them must be carefully considered, and a reliable and shrewd person must be chosen to take the position. "Guji has a deep understanding of this.
"Are you back?" a crisp voice sounded outside the door.
"Miss Qin is back, the adults have just come back, it seems that she is practicing calligraphy in the orthographic study. A soft voice replied.
"Hey, didn't I tell you a long time ago? What Miss Qin and Miss Gu, you call me Frost Shadow or Ah Ying, and I call you Artie, didn't we say okay?"
The crisp voice outside the door was naturally Qin Shuangying, and that soft voice was of course Charlotte, several girls were of the same age, and Charlotte's surname was also very docile, and the three girls soon had nothing to talk about, of course, a lot of the content they talked about was about Wu Feng.
"Oh, I forgot again, I'll call you Frost Shadow. When the adults came back, I didn't think I was in a very good mood, and now I'm practicing calligraphy in the study. β
"How can he practice his handwriting? It's like a tree branch and a stick, and it boils down to one sentence, showing his teeth and claws! He still doesn't accept criticism from others! You don't know, I heard that last time he relied on his power to write an inscription for the Northwest Military Academy, and as a result, Lord Mo Lun criticized him for his subordinates, and he was angry and demanded that others compensate him for the so-called ruined reputation. β
"No, don't you, you don't think that's the kind of person. β
A burst of words came clearly from outside the room, so that Wu Feng, who was about to splash ink and waves, suddenly lost interest, good you dead girl, you dare to slander your master's reputation like this, but you just let Mo Lun invite a few guests, how can it be known to passers-by? It must be that Mo Lun deliberately spread it, and when he goes back, he will have to settle this account with Mo Lun.
Pushing open the door, Wu Feng leaned against the door and stood with a smile on his face, "Frost Shadow, why are you attacking your boss viciously again?"
"Oh, my lord, I'm just telling you the truth about what happened, where can I talk about any vicious attacks? Don't put a big hat on us, we can't afford it. Qin Shuangying's cheeks turned red from Wufeng's affectionate name, but she immediately fought back.
"Hmph, don't you say no, isn't it a bit too much to spread hearsay wantonly? When I return to Qingyang, I'm going to call Mo Lun to confront you face to face. Wu Feng pretended to keep a straight face.
"Then when are we going back to Qingyang?" Although the capital is good, it is not a hometown after all, Qin Shuangying has only been in the capital for two days and is a little homesick.
Wu Feng was also a little depressed, and it was not easy to answer positively, so he had to divert the topic, "Well, it depends on the situation, I heard that the activities in the capital during this Spring Festival can be quite colorful, and if you are interested, let's also go and see the famous martial arts and dragon and tiger lists, and listen to the comments of the so-called martial arts masters, maybe it will be of great benefit to your kung fu, and you can also call the Gu family girl." β
"Oh, I've also heard of this martial arts arena and the dragon and tiger list, but I haven't seen it with my own eyes, in the northwest, my master told me that I have the opportunity to see and see, maybe I can really improve my martial arts." Qin Shuangying was really interested when she heard this, "Then when are we going?"
"Don't worry, don't worry, anyway, we have to stay in this capital for a while, there is a chance, I heard that after the spring festival, the court will also hold a ring match to meet friends with martial arts, and the court will also select some of the Yulin soldiers among the best in this competition, this is a good opportunity for the fish to jump into the dragon gate, we can also feast our eyes." Wu Feng replied with a smile.
"Okay, when the time comes, let's go together, Artie, will you go too?" Qin Shuangying said happily, and pulled Charlotte next to her, who had not spoken.
"I, I'm not going, I'm not much interested in those fights and killings, I think I'd better prepare meals for you at home. Seeing Wu Feng's burning eyes staring at him, Charlotte's face flushed slightly, and she looked more and more delicate and moving.
"It's nothing, if you are not interested in these, we can also go to the clothing area of several districts in the East District, where all kinds of excellent clothing are famous in the mainland, and the big temple street, where the exquisite handicrafts of various ethnic groups in the mainland can be seen, even Charlotte, you may not have finished shopping." "Wu Feng is now fried and sold in front of beauties, and he is very attentive.
"Also, I heard that the Empire's annual poetry competition will also be held in the near future, and talented people from all over the empire will gather at the Imperial National Palace of Arts, and at that time, you can have a glimpse of the talents from all over the world. Wu Feng pretended to be elegant and vulgar in front of the beauty.
"Thank you, for your kindness, although Charlotte is very yearning, I heard that the items in the clothing area and the Great Temple Street are worth a thousand gold at every turn, and even the tickets to the poetry club are worth a lot of money. Charlotte had a look of fascination on her face, clearly tempted by Wu Feng's proposal.
"It doesn't matter, although your brother Li is not rich, these small amounts of money are still not a problem. "In front of the beauty, he was as strong as an ox and slapped his chest with a bang.
