The good news from the border pass said that the Lei Kingdom suffered two defeats, the grain, grass and armaments were insufficient, and the domestic court was turbulent, the emperor died, and the new emperor ascended the throne, so he had no intention of fighting again and made every effort to seek peace. Willing to cut the border and pass two cities to the country of wind. But judging from the cities they provided, this is not a dangerous pass, and it is of little use to leave it. Therefore, it is true to seek sum, and it is also true to seek stamina.

"If the two places of Qicheng and Bangcheng are ceded to us, their new border passes and two cities will be Baicheng and Hecheng, and there are black rock mountains outside these two cities, and the mountain roads are steep, easy to defend and difficult to attack. Once the war resumes, the situation of the war will inevitably expand to the two border passes attached to the left and back, and we will need twice as many troops to deal with Baicheng and Hecheng as the existing two border passes. The emperor was lying flat on the bed, his hands resting on his head, seemingly leisurely, but he analyzed very calmly.

Rong Yunxi smiled and ordered Yunshang and the guards he brought to retreat. After the person retreated, he said, "So Your Majesty means ......"

"I think that the meaning of Lei Guo's quest for peace is true, but it is also true to keep myself behind and seek strong conditions for the next big war. Now that their new emperor has ascended the throne, we also happen to be the new emperor ascending the throne, and they are all when the situation in the country is undecided and they have no intention of fighting. If Lei Qianliu has the intention of a truce, let's not take precautions. But as for the separation...... Hehe, I won't take over their two chicken-ribbed cities. ”

The emperor stretched, got up, and said, "You go and help me draft a document, and we will respond to him." ”

Rong Yunxi hesitated slightly, but did not refuse. And just smiled: "How do you say that?" ”

"On the tenth silkworm god festival in the first month of March, I said that I invited them to the new emperor of the Thunder Kingdom to come to the Wind Country to participate in the prosperous era. Let him bring this year's annual tribute - five hundred taels of gold, and live in it. If he is willing to come and be a vassal, I will make a truce with him, and if he refuses, I will continue to fight without rest. "The emperor put his pestle on the bed, crossed Erlang's legs, and hung Erlang.

Rong Yunxi laughed: "Old fox......"

has already given the emperor a thumbs up from the bottom of his heart. Five hundred taels of gold is not a large amount for a rich family with little face in the Wind Country, not to mention that it is a dignified country, what the emperor wants, is their intention to be a minister, not their little money.

If they want too much, they will be forced to rush and ruin, which is not a good thing for both parties at this time. And the emperor couldn't really think that he could recover the Lei Kingdom from then on, so that the Lei Kingdom would be willing to be a vassal. If things are so easy between countries, how can there be war?

The emperor's move was mostly done to show other countries. Let them see what happens when they go against the Wind Country. Some reasonable people can see that this title is only temporary, but those who are confused can't help but think that the Thunder Country has really been subdued by the Wind Country.

This move is just a transaction like land cession. It depends on whether Lei Qianliu wants face or lining.

Rong Yunxi polished the emperor's words and showed the prepared edict to the emperor. The emperor saw it, smiled with satisfaction: "I really should send you to the Ministry of Rites to do Shangshu, you are so talented, if you don't go to the Ministry of Rites to polish the documents, it will be really humiliating." ”

Rong Yunxi smiled: "I'm not interested in being an official, if you really think I'm doing well, why don't you reward me with some silver money and relax the use of my palace, this is practical!" ”

"You want to make money, don't rush it," the emperor smiled, "After a while, everything will settle down, and I will give you a chance to make a lot ......of money." ”

"Is it your industry? Give it all to me? Do you want to give it to me too? Rong Yunxi looks like a money fan.

knew that the emperor asked her to open Changle Fang for long-term intentions, and originally wanted her to use this small business to practice her hands first.

"Tsk...... I don't remember telling you about the little vault? "The emperor said.

"Do you still need to explain...... Rong Yunxi smiled, put away the paperwork, and asked, "But now send someone out?" ”

"I called Li Zhonggui to come in and asked him to send someone to the border overnight. is to tell Lei Qianliu that I don't need to think about it at all, if he wants to ask for peace, there is only this way. The emperor said proudly.

The emperor said about the Silkworm God Festival, but he reminded Rong Yunxi. Every year on the Silkworm God Festival, the queen in the Weiyang Palace leads the concubines and concubines to worship the silkworm god. She became the queen for the first time this year, and if she misses such a major event, she is afraid that it will arouse many doubts and concerns of the hundreds of officials and people in the country, which will be greatly detrimental to the stability of the people's hearts.

What's more, if someone with a heart finds out that she has escaped from the palace, and she is not unable to sacrifice to the silkworm god because of illness or the like, this matter will definitely become a big storm. Even if she is not removed from the position of queen, she will not be able to live in peace. After all, there is still the queen mother in the palace, and no matter how much the emperor protects her, he can't defeat the whole country.

Her own reputation is okay, but when she thinks that the emperor is going to embarrass her again, she can't help but hesitate.

When I was struggling in my heart, I heard the emperor say: "Only the Lei country is here, and Lei Qianliu is a vassal to me, and there is no witness." It's done so quietly, and it's too cheap for him. In this way, on the grounds of the new emperor's accession to the throne, we invite the close neighbors and distant friends of the Wind Country to come to Weiyang Palace for a few days to enjoy themselves, in order to make peace. Even the rain and snow countries, which had been outside the kingdoms for a long time, were invited...... If they are interested in the world, they will come. ”

Hearing what the emperor said, Rong Yunxi's entanglement stopped instantly. Because once this happens, when the envoys of all countries come, she, as the queen, must be by the emperor's side. And these people came to Weiyang Palace together, it is difficult to guarantee that no one has evil intentions and wants to take advantage of the opportunity to cause trouble. If the emperor wants to make this big banquet, he is undoubtedly making trouble for the wind country and himself.

But when you think about it, the benefits outweigh the troubles. Knowing that the other side can survive a hundred battles, the emperor has not dealt with the envoys of these countries or the princes and princes in person, and naturally he does not know much about the meaning of these countries. And especially the rain country and the snow country, it seems that there is no dispute with the world because of the location, but when the heroes are competing for deer, even as a spectator, it is impossible not to be tempted, right? I'm afraid that I already have the intention of wanting to give it a try.

What's more, it is precisely because of the remote location that the desire for the Central Plains will be heavier. If they really have the intention of chasing the deer, I'm afraid they have been planning in secret. How can they see what they are asking for in such troubled times? The only way to do this is to take the initiative to explore.

If the rain country and the snow country do not come, it can be seen that they really want to "ask for peace", and if they are invited to come, it can be seen that they also want to take this opportunity to explore the wind country and other countries.

Since we are going to fight, we probe each other, you know what you need, I know what I need, everyone takes what they need, and when the war starts, they are all powerful.

"This is not in a hurry, after Ming'er goes to court, I still have to make a show, discuss it with those old decays, and then let them come up with it......" The emperor beckoned to Rong Yunxi: "What are you still doing in a daze?" Go on! ”

After speaking, he turned over and went to lie on his stomach, and the uncle generally waited for Rong Yunxi's service.

Rong Yunxi really can't do anything about him, thinking that you are annoyed with me, or did you not take it to heart? Why did you look at me so intimidatingly for a while, but then everything was business as usual? You can't do this, you're going to scare me sooner or later......

I was dissatisfied with the emperor in my heart, and I couldn't wait to pull him up by the neck and teach him a good lesson. But her body is not angry, as soon as people beckon, she will look for people in a hurry.

……

Time flies, and it is already March.

Lei Guo's reply had already come, and as the emperor expected, Lei Qianliu really agreed to Fengguo's request to be a minister in order to seek domestic stability and stability of imperial power. At this point, people must already be on their way.

Today is the eighth day of the first month of March, and Weiyang Palace has already received all the replies from several countries except Snow Country. They all said that they were grateful for the invitation of the Emperor of the Wind Country and were willing to come to share the grand event of the Silkworm God Festival.

What Rong Yunxi looks forward to the most is to meet the envoys of the Snow Country. At least from the mouth of the envoy of the Snow Country, I can find out a little about the recent situation of the Snow Country. It's better to have news than no news, in case there happens to be a mother's care!

But after waiting and waiting, I just didn't see a reply from Snow Country. Could it be that Murong Yan's kid really has no intention of competing for the hegemony of the Central Plains? No matter how you look at it, he is not a pure-hearted person like that.

Rong Yunxi was feeding the edelweiss in the courtyard, thinking about the snow country, and when he saw the emperor happily entering the courtyard, he smiled and said: "I really think that the emperor of the snow country is a mountain fairy with a pure heart and few desires!" What a look at him! It turned out that it was just because of the long distance, and the heavy snow over there closed the mountains and it was difficult to walk, which delayed the delivery of the letter. Early this morning, the reply letter was sent to the Ministry of Rites......"

Rong Yunxi was overjoyed, but he didn't show anything, just smiled as usual: "Sure enough, the fat of the Central Plains has long been remembered by their overlords in remote places. ”

"The Snow Country Emperor is a little interesting...... "The Emperor of the Snow Country squatted down and pulled the tail of the Edelweiss and said, "The reply said that the Snow Country Emperor is going to come in person...... It is said that the Emperor of Snow Country is just a puppet in the country, and the government is controlled by the Queen Mother, and he is an idler who has nothing to do all day. Now it seems that most of this rumor is true. ”

Edelweiss was dragged by the emperor's tail, so he was naturally unhappy, and twisted the little white fart several times, trying to shake off the emperor's hand, but this annoying thing was not to let go. Seeing that Rong Yunxi can't wait to bite him instead of Edelweiss!

But this little guy seems to be a person who can look at identity, since he entered Weiyang Palace, he didn't dare to be arrogant with the emperor, and every time he saw the emperor, he walked with his tail between his legs. Sometimes Rong Yunxi thinks that if Edelweiss will also ask for peace, he will definitely give the emperor a big gift every time he sees the emperor, so that the emperor can give him more bones.

"Even if it's true, this puppet is also a rather ambitious puppet......" Rong Yunxi pulled the emperor's hand away and said with a smile, "Do you want to know what this Snow Country Emperor looks like?" How old is it? What temper? ”

"Oh? Do you know? The emperor was surprised.

Rong Yunxi got up proudly and beckoned to the emperor: "Come in with me, I'll talk to you when I enter the house." ”

"Hey...... I'll tease it, and look at your heartache! In your heart, I'm not even as good as edelweiss! You don't even feed me! "The emperor said that he was so aggrieved.

Rong Yunxi couldn't cry or laugh, thinking that it was you who bullied the puppy, okay? You're still wronged! If I don't trick you away, I'm afraid that after a while, the tail of the edelweiss will be pulled off by you!

But the emperor said that he was dissatisfied, but he still entered the house with Rong Yunxi, and said anxiously: "Hurry up and talk to me, when did you meet him?" Did you see it or did you see it? ”
