Although Yanzhou Mu Cao Cao was a little unwilling and reluctant. But in order to exchange for Xiahou Yuan and nearly 10,000 soldiers, this time he gritted his teeth and sealed a gift package of one million taels of silver, and ceded the territory in the northwest of Pengcheng Kingdom in Xuzhou.

What outsiders don't know is that this is the price finally reached after bargaining between the two parties, in fact, Cao Cao is not even willing to pay a penny.

Wuzhou Musun Jian generously sent one million taels of silver to Zhao Xing, claiming that this was to fund the preparation of military supplies for the king of Pingxi and the subjugation of the Western Regions. At the same time, in order to support the king of Pingxi, Wuzhou also sent two young generals, Lu Xun and Lu Meng, to listen to the dispatch of the king of Pingxi, and assist the king of Pingxi in the future to make contributions in the Western Regions.

What outsiders don't know is that in order to get these two people, the Jin State needs to provide Wuzhou with a complete black powder formula, and at the same time support Wuzhou with a batch of high-quality weapons and armor to help Wuzhou quell the Baiyue rebellion in its territory. Moreover, the million taels of silver provided by Sun Jian were paid for by the ore in Wuzhou, not directly taking out real money like Lao Cao.

Jingzhou Mu Liu Biao did not have generals and soldiers who were detained by the Jin State, and he was not deterred by the Jin State for the time being, but he also gave Zhao Xing a congratulatory gift worth one million taels of silver plus a few available talents. The reason why it is said to be worth one million taels is only because what Liu Biao sent was rice from the south, not real money.

What outsiders don't know is that since the Liang State counterattacked Yizhou and captured Hanzhong County in one fell swoop, it has now extended its tentacles to the edge of Xiangyang. Although there were only 10,000 Liangguo soldiers stationed in Shangyong and Fangling, once the situation changed in the future, thousands of troops and horses could go down the Han River from the Fangling area, and within three days, the troops would send to Xiangyang and fall directly into Jingzhou in a desperate situation.

The Liang Kingdom is not the Jin Kingdom, but the Liang King is Zhao Xing's future son-in-law. If Zhao Xing is upset, maybe Liang Guo will not clean up the Yizhou Sima clan first, but make a surprise attack on Jingzhou, Liu Biao is not mentally prepared. Therefore, this time, Jingzhou not only supported the king of Pingxi with grain worth one million taels of silver, but also followed the example of Wuzhou and sent Ma Liang's second brother Ma Kang and fifth brother Ma Jian to the king of Pingxi to listen to it, hoping to exchange Zhao Xing's satisfaction.

Yuzhou Mu Liu Yan was a little petty, and only sent 500,000 taels of silver, but he honestly spit out all the territory that he had invaded Xuzhou, just to exchange for the general Pan Feng and more than 10,000 Yuzhou soldiers.

Yangzhou Mu Yuan Shu was as stingy as Liu Yan, and he also sent 500,000 taels of silver, plus Guangling County, which was embezzled by him, and finally only exchanged for Ji Ling and Zhang Xun. As for the tens of thousands of Danyang soldiers who were captured before and after, in view of his stinginess, the Jin Kingdom simply did not return any of them.

Jiaozhou Mu Shixie was originally a poor man, he really couldn't take out too much money, and it was impossible to provide a large amount of military supplies to the king of Pingxi, but in order to show his sincerity, he was willing to lend Zhuyazhou (Hainan Island) under his rule to the Jin State Sailor as a transit place in the future, and all the production and income on the island belonged to the Sailor.

Zhao Xing was very satisfied with the favor sent by Shiyi, and agreed that when the conditions were ripe in the future, he would definitely send a sailor south to Zhuyazhou, and maintain business contacts with Jiaozhou at sea in the future.

The canonization ceremony finally ended successfully after King Pingxi made a lot of money, and the Han Empire finally produced a king with a different surname after hundreds of years.

Although the canonization ceremony was over, the guests did not leave in a hurry, because the king of Pingxi would invite everyone to witness the engagement ceremony of the two sons-in-law and his daughter, and at the same time there were precious gifts to give back to all parties.

Liu Rong, the king of Jin, who rarely appears in people's sight, is now fourteen years old, and he wants to marry Zhao Xing's second daughter Zhao Siping, who is about the same age as him.

According to the pre-determined ceremony, a pair of men and women wearing bright red auspicious clothes, toasted tea to Zhao Xing, who was sitting on the main seat, and then Zhao Xing announced the marriage covenant between the two in front of the guests on the spot, and the wedding ceremony was officially held when he reached the age of eighteen.

This is a very simple process, which lasts no more than a quarter of an hour, mainly to make Liu Rong and Zhao Siping appear in front of the world.

After Liu Rong and Zhao Siping retired, Liu Qian, who was only eleven, and Zhao Sijie, who was only ten years old, wore the same costume and walked through the ceremony again, and then Zhao Xing said the same thing again, so the two engagement ceremonies ended.

Although the ceremony was simple, everyone present had all kinds of ideas in their hearts. Those who support Zhao Xing feel that this time the two family affairs will be officially settled, and the Jin Kingdom and the Liang Kingdom will still be under the control of the King of Pingxi in the future, and once they encounter danger, Zhao Xing, as the guardian of the two sons-in-law, will definitely stand up and call the shots for them.

However, Huang Wan, Lu Su, Wei Zhen, Zhuge Jin, Cai Mao, Zang Hong and others felt heavy pressure in their hearts. The dignified prince of the first emperor, the current King of Jin and the King of Liang, although the two are not adults, they have shown enough respect and love for Zhao Xing, as long as you look carefully at the expressions on the faces of the two, you will find that they have no signs of being coerced at all, and they are clearly happy and excited from the heart.

Such a situation can only show one problem, that is, Zhao Xing has completely influenced the two princes, and there is no infinite suspicion and defense between their sons-in-law, and this is the result that many people in the field are most unwilling to see.

As King Jin and King Liang grow up day by day, if the two children have different hearts, the Zhao Xing power group will inevitably be internally unstable, and everyone will still have a chance to breathe and turn around. Now seeing Zhao Xing taking care of Liu Rong and Liu Qian like a father, and the two princes do not have the slightest consciousness that the Han family has been stolen by Zhao Xing, in the future, I am only afraid that the Jin Kingdom and the Liang Kingdom will still be Zhao Xing's backyard, and it is really difficult for outsiders to use the relationship between the three to cause trouble.

The thirty-one-year-old father-in-law forced the imperial court to seal a king of Pingxi, and only God knows how big the territory under his rule will be in the future.

The fourteen-year-old son-in-law was crowned King of Jin by the imperial court a few years ago, and the territory under his rule mainly includes the annexation of the state and the boundless desert grassland north of the annexed state.

The eleven-year-old son-in-law, who was rescued from the secret room on the White Rock Mountain, not only saw the light of day again, but also had an equally frighteningly large territory, although it was not as powerful as the name of the King of Jin, but now it was also fledgling, and was sharpening his sword to prepare for war against the Yizhou Sima clan.

Two sons-in-law plus a father-in-law, the guests who came to attend the ceremony of the canonization of King Pingxi saw three kings at once, I don't know if this is their luck or the sorrow of the Han royal family?

After the engagement ceremony, Zhao Xing immediately announced that the Pingxi Royal Mansion was located in Qucheng, a member of the Yanqi State in the Western Regions, with Liu Yu as the first prime minister and Guan Yu as the governor of the soldiers and horses. In the future, when Zhao Xing was not in the Western Regions, Liu Yu was fully responsible for political affairs, and Guan Yu was solely responsible for military affairs.

What Zhao Xing means by this is that I still continue to be the shopkeeper, don't expect to be able to fool me really to the Western Regions, Crouching Tiger City is my home!
