Chapter 1 Kun You Returns
Li Yunqing was stunned at first when he heard this, the king and grandson of the Great Stone Empire? After pondering for a while, he came back to his senses, the king of the Great Stone Empire from the Beiming Continent. The other party originally asked to travel in Daqian, saying that he had been away from the palace for nearly a year. If he didn't come to see him today, Li Yunqing would have forgotten about the other party completely. I saw that his eyebrows were raised, and he said to Chen Zhong: "Take him to Dongnuan Pavilion." "Anyway, he walked towards the East Warm Pavilion, the East Warm Pavilion mentioned here is the East Warm Pavilion of Fengming Palace, not other places.
The nine halls and eighteen palaces of Qianchang Palace are equipped with two warm pavilions in the east and west, the east warm pavilion deals with government affairs, and the west warm pavilion is used as a study or rest. In fact, the warm pavilions in the nine halls and eighteen palaces are all prepared for the emperor, in order to ensure that the emperor can handle government affairs at any time, anywhere, anytime, anywhere. Soon Kun You was brought into the Dongnuan Pavilion, he looked at Li Yunqing's back, hesitated for a moment and chose to salute Li Yunqing with the etiquette of a great cadre. I only heard him say respectfully: "Kun You has seen His Majesty the Great Qian, and I respectfully invite the Emperor Sheng'an!" At this moment, he is really afraid of Li Yunqing, from the bottom of his heart.
In the past year, he took the two brothers of the martial family to travel around the Great Qian, and fully understood the broad and powerful customs of the Great Qian. Although the place he went on this trip was less than three points of the entire Daqian, he was already deeply shocked. He profoundly felt the strength of the cadres and the cohesion of the cadres. The whole country is like a fist, all the forces are gathered together, as long as the order is given, you can attack quickly and accurately, so as to defeat all opponents.
This is also the fundamental difference between the Great Qian Empire, or the Central Plains Continent and the Northern Ming Continent. In the entire Beiming Continent, there are as many as eight large and small countries. Moreover, the strength of the eight countries, except for the extremely powerful Sky Eagle Empire, the other seven empires, such as the Giant Stone Empire, are all on equal footing, and they balance each other, and no one can help anyone. After the Aquila Empire became stronger, the other other empires allied with each other and secretly made an agreement that they could work together against the Aquila Empire if necessary. The Aquila Empire is too powerful and a threat to each of them, so this is the only way to maintain a delicate balance.
And even the powerful Sky Eagle Empire doesn't seem to be enough in front of the Great Qian Empire, and the power of the empire is extremely disparity. In other words, even if all the forces on the Beiming Continent are gathered, in the end, the best outcome is only a draw with the Great Qian Empire. Moreover, it is difficult for the empire of the Northern Ming Continent to unite, that is to say, it is impossible to be the opponent of the Great Qian.
In the face of such a strong and extremely young ruler, even if Kun You has been debauched for many years, he now tries to keep himself extremely deferential in front of Li Yunqing, which is a respect for the strong. Li Yunqing turned around when he heard this, and said with a slight smile: "Prince Kunyou doesn't need to be polite, you are a guest, not my people, so you don't need to give me such a grand gift." ”
When Kun You heard this, he looked up at Li Yunqing and said sincerely: "Your Majesty the Great Emperor, even if I am not a citizen of this empire, no matter where the strong are they are, they should be respected. You are the real strong man in my heart, so I want to use the most sincere courtesy of the Great Qian Empire. Both his gaze and tone are very sincere, which shows that what he says is from the heart.
Li Yunqing nodded with a smile when he heard this, and motioned for Kun You to sit down. After the two of them sat down, Kun You said with a smile on his face: "I really feel the strength of Daqian during this trip, although I have only been to a few prefectures, it is enough to prove the strength of Daqian." You can rule such a large and vibrant empire, and I Kun You have great admiration for your person. ”
Li Yunqing sat on the dragon chair, his eyes flashed, and he said in a deep voice: "His Royal Highness the Prince has been out of the palace for nearly a year, I don't know what I think of my big Qian?" Is there any difference between my Central Plains Continent and the Beiming Continent? "He's still very curious about this. The Central Plains Continent is extremely vast, and even if he rules the territory of the three major empires, it is only thirty percent of the Central Plains Continent. There are still many small countries that have not set foot in it, and even those big vassal states have not been there. He wanted to know what kind of existence the Central Plains Continent was in the eyes of a prince from a different continent, and the evaluation of outsiders was often the most objective and true.
Hearing this, Kun You said: "The kid went out to travel for eleven months, and went to several large states and counties in the north of Daqian, and also went to several states and counties in the south of Daqian, and felt that Daqian was really amazingly powerful, and the cohesion of the army and the people was very strong. These are not the things that shock me the most, what shocks me the most is that the Mandate of Heaven's support for you, the emperor, has reached a point of no return. Maybe you wouldn't have thought that you are a god-like existence in the eyes of the common people, so noble. ”
Speaking of this, Kun You was silent and continued: "Although the Beiming Continent should be not much different from the Central Plains Continent in terms of geography, the cohesion of the Central Plains Continent is almost gone. It is said that there were many countries in the Beiming Continent since the ancient times, and it is said that there were 30 countries at that time. Later, after conquest with each other, only eight empires were left 3,000 years ago. Since then, the eight empires have each carefully managed their own territory, and although they have secretly competed with each other, they have also formed a balance of power, which is an extremely delicate check and balance, so that there will be no more major wars in the Beiming Continent! ”
Listening to a prince from a different continent praising the strength of the Central Plains Continent and the Great Qian Empire, Li Yunqing was naturally happy, and there was some little pride. As for the power structure on the Beiming Continent, he was not interested in knowing, it had nothing to do with him. However, this Prince Kunyou seemed to intend to reveal to Li Yunqing about the power structure of the Beiming Continent, and only listened to him say with some sorrow: "Among the eight empires in the Beiming Continent, one empire has risen rapidly in recent decades and has become the strongest of the eight empires, which is the Heavenly Eagle Empire. The royal family of the Aquila Empire is the Northern Mad Clan, and the current Wang Bei Arrogance is an unborn genius, that is, he has strengthened the Aquila Empire. And he is ambitious, and he has the intention of unifying the Beiming Continent. The other seven nations had no choice but to form an alliance in secret, promising to unite against the Aquila Empire if the situation changed. It is precisely because I thought that the situation in the Beiming Continent was now very delicate. ”
Want to dominate an entire continent? Want to have the power of the Great Qian Empire today? It seems that he is indeed an ambitious person, Li Yunqing couldn't help but smile in his heart, but he turned to Kun You as soon as he changed the conversation and asked Kun You: "The prince's travels in my Daqian have come to an end for the time being, so what are the prince's plans next, is he going to continue to study in Daqian, or is he going to return to China?" "Li Yunqing is not so interested in everything in the Beiming Continent, he has ambitions, but his ambitions are not so big, so big that he has the idea of not moving another continent.
