Chapter 607

In the court, Ji Bu, the envoy of Loulan, asked Daqin for help.

After the first emperor pretended to ponder for a long time, he agreed, and immediately issued an edict, led by the prince, sent troops to Loulan, and pacified the rebellion in Loulan.

As soon as the First Emperor finished issuing the edict, the envoy Jibu proposed one thing to the First Emperor.

That is to welcome Zarelina back to Loulan and take over as the king of Loulan.

The First Emperor frowned, and before he could speak, Li Si stood up.

Li Si looked at Jibu and said in a gloomy tone: "Jibu envoy, is the current king of Loulan dead?" Need my Daqin's crown princess to go back and take over as King of Loulan? ”

Gibb hurriedly said: "My king is overworked, and my king's body can no longer support it at this time, and my king has no heirs, so I ask His Majesty the Emperor to do so." ”

After the First Emperor pondered for a moment, he said, "Then let's wait until the current King of Loulan is dead." ”

Ji Bu's face changed, he didn't expect the First Emperor to say such a thing, this is simply not caring about Loulan's face.

After the first emperor finished speaking, he got up directly and threw his sleeves away, and the ministers hurriedly gave them away.

After the First Emperor left, the ministers did not have a good face for Gibb, and threw away one by one, while Gibb was stunned.

Yao Jia was the only one left, and came to Jibu's side and sighed.

Only then did Jibu come back to his senses, thinking about Yao Jia and arching his hand: "Lord Yao, did you say something wrong just now?" ”

"You, how wrong you are." Yao Jia shook his head helplessly.

"Please also ask Lord Yao to teach me." Like a student, Jibu made a big gift to Yao Jia.

Yao Jia was startled and anxious

Hurriedly helped Gibb up and said, "This is the palace, except for Your Majesty, you can't give such a big gift to others, let's go out and say." ”

Yao Jia took Jibu to a teahouse outside the palace, booked a private room, and served the best tea in the teahouse, of course, all this was paid by Jibu.

Jibu asked Yao Jia for advice again, and still made a big gift.

"Alright, sit down." Yao Jia took a sip of tea, which was quite good.

After Ji Bu sat down nervously, Yao Jia said: "Ji Bu's envoy may not know that according to the rules, there can only be one crown princess of the crown prince, but the prince has made all his wives princesses, which shows the depth of the prince's love for the princesses." ”

"Above the court, Your Majesty has just issued an edict ordering the prince to lead the troops to Loulan to rescue Loulan, and you proposed to let the crown princess return to Loulan, isn't this to break up the relationship between the prince and the princess?"

"If Your Majesty agrees to you, I'm afraid that there will be a mustard between the prince and Your Majesty, so it is impossible for Your Majesty to let the crown princess return to Loulan."

"Lord Yao, what should I do next, now Loulan really needs the crown princess to go back and preside over the overall situation!" Gibb asked anxiously.

Yao Jia shook his head and said, "Now you still have dispelled this idea, Your Majesty will not let the crown princess leave." ”

"You'd better not look for the crown princess these days, otherwise you will be killed, and even the crown princess may suffer with it."

When he came out of the teahouse, Jibu's face turned pale, and Yao Jia's words later made Jibu feel even more desperate.

And from the roof of the Prince's Mansion, Zarelina looked to the west, where she had once been her hometown.

white

The deer accompanied him, gently patted Zarelina's shoulder, and said, "It's windy, you just got pregnant, go down first." ”

Zarelina looked at Bailu and said, "I married into Daqin, I am a Daqin person, I shouldn't be sad for Loulan, but I can't control myself." ”

Bailu looked at the west and said: "Lina, you should think like this, Your Highness was going to take Loulan home before, and then it will be a real family, and the people of Loulan can also enjoy the general treatment of the people of Great Qin." ”

Zarelina nodded, sighed in her heart, and pulled Bailu downstairs.

On the other side, Fusu had already received the edict and immediately began to assemble a large army.

They had been waiting for this moment for a long time.

If they hadn't known that Loulan was going to ask Daqin for help, they wouldn't have continued to wait, and they probably had to go to the border of the Western Regions.

Now that Loulan took the initiative to ask for help, and the edict personally issued by His Majesty the Emperor, the Great Qin Division is famous, and the morale is even greater.

The next day, Fusu led the army to set off, while Zhao Yi led an army of 50,000 from Hanzhong to Shudi.

······

Due to Gibbu's unreasonable demands, the First Emperor threw his sleeves away, so some important matters have not yet been discussed.

So Li Si, Xiao He, Mo Ling and Meng Tian came directly to the imperial study to ask for a meeting.

"What else?" The First Emperor looked at the four of them and asked.

"Your Majesty, Your Highness ordered us to plan the development of Great Qin in the next five years, and I asked Your Majesty to review it."

Seeing that the four of them all took out a thick book, the First Emperor's head was about to explode.

The First Emperor hurriedly stretched out his hand to stop the four of them and said, "Have you discussed the four of you four plans together?"

”

"The ministers have consulted."

Li Si said: "Your Majesty, the five-year plan includes the construction of the Ministry of Industry, the people's livelihood and business plan of the Ministry of Civil Affairs, the military development plan of the Ministry of War, and the government plan and education plan of Daqin. ”

"Wait." The First Emperor now had a big head and asked, "With so many plans, does the treasury have so much money?" ”

Xiao He took a step forward and arched his hand: "Your Majesty, the minister has calculated, if these plans are implemented in five years and in stages, the treasury will still be able to support them." ”

Li Si also said: "Your Majesty, even if there is a tax problem in my Great Qin, I can suspend the follow-up plan, or extend the follow-up plan, which will not have much impact on my Daqin." ”

"On the contrary, once this plan is realized, my Great Qin's national strength will inevitably develop by leaps and bounds, but it will bless my Great Qin for thousands of years."

"Bring it." The First Emperor took a deep breath, but still put away the concerto of the four people, preparing to finish the review after working overtime in the past few days.

After putting away the cantata, the First Emperor asked, "What do you four think about the unification of Loulan?" ”

Meng Tian arched his hand and said, "Your Majesty! The minister heard from General Wang that Loulan's troops were only 200,000 at most, and their combat power was not high. Now it was invaded by the Tibetans first, and then civil strife broke out, and the 200,000-strong army was enough to sweep the entire Western Regions. ”

Xiao He arched his hand and said: "As Lord Taiwei said, it is not difficult to unify Loulan, but it is a headache to govern Loulan." ”

"The minister has investigated, Loulan is mainly desert, the city is generally located in the oasis, and the distance between the cities is large, which leads to

Decrees could not be communicated quickly, and it was difficult to form constraints between cities. ”

"Loulan seems to have unified the Western Regions, but in fact, it is similar to Zhou Tianzi back then, and there is a lot of power between the cities, which cannot be regarded as unification in the true sense."

"Then how can we govern the Western Regions?" The First Emperor asked.

Xiao He replied: "Your Majesty, the minister believes that the premise of governing the Western Regions is to build a railway. Railways were used to link the cities and strengthen the connection between them. ”

"Very well, it coincides with my thoughts." The First Emperor laughed.
