Chapter 252: The Gambling Contract

After arriving at the priest's hall, under the leadership of the attendants, Huang Zhang and Hu Yi'er came to the inside of the sacrificial hall and met Zhu Mi.

"Long time no see."

Seeing Zhu Mi again at this moment, I only felt that Zhu Mi revealed a kind of confidence.

This self-confidence may come from her current strength.

"Long time no see." Huang Zhang replied.

"The last time we met, you brought the master of the Brahmanic Sect, but this time we met, you brought a woman, I don't know what His Royal Highness the Great Prince means?" Zhu Mi said with a smile.

"This is my insider, bring her over to see the world, and learn about the customs and culture of the barbarians by the way."

Hearing Huang Zhang's words, Hu Yi'er immediately blushed.

This is the first time that Huang Zhang has officially called her an insider in front of outsiders.

"Doesn't His Royal Highness the Grand Prince know that it is now in a state of war? Actually took your family to the mountains and rivers? Is it so confident? ”

"The war is over soon, and you can understand my current state."

"General Kewushu is not so easy to defeat." Zhu Mi said.

It stands to reason that she should know the news that the main force of Ke Wushu was annihilated by the yellow paper, but what does she mean by hearing this? Could it be that there are still troops in Ke Wushu?

"His Royal Highness the Great Prince came all the way to come alone, I'm afraid he just wants to catch up with me, right?"

Huang Zhang glanced at her, "I want to make a deal with you." ”

"Deal? Strange, the dignified prince of the kingdom actually made a deal with the barbarians. ”

"What's so strange about this, isn't Langqi City specially used by the Su State to trade with the people of the two places?"

Huang Zhang's words made Zhu Mi a little impressed, "This is also true, then Your Highness just talk about it and see what the deal is." ”

"This deal, the object is not you and me, but the Su country and the barbarians, I don't want the two barbarians to fight again in the future, this is a deep disaster for the people. I think you, as a barbarian priest, don't want war to happen in both places. ”

In this regard, Zhu Mi nodded, after all, she was a white-clothed priest, and she accepted the ancestral god worship belief of the barbarians, and her faith determined that she hated killing and war.

Death is a sacred thing, but it should not be caused by war.

"I don't understand what His Royal Highness the Great Prince means."

"I want to keep Su Barbarian together."

Hearing this, Zhu Mi smiled, she laughed at Huang Zhang's innocence.

"His Royal Highness the Great Prince is also a person who leads the troops, I thought that His Royal Highness the Great Prince was wise, but I didn't expect it to be so naΓ―ve, although we barbarian priests hate war, but we also know that this war is inevitable, and we will always be together? How do you quench the ambitions of the barbarian king? ”

It is the upper echelons of the barbarians who wage war, which is determined by human nature, and they will always be together? Joke, even if you and this barbarian king are brothers like flesh and blood, it is difficult to guarantee the next one, and the next barbarian king will not have thoughts about Su Guo.

Su has abundant real estate, vast land, resources that the barbarian king wants most, and sufficient population, all of which mean greater power, and no one can erase these things hidden in the depths of human nature, as long as there are interests, there will be disputes.

Huang Zhang also knew that if he said this, he would definitely attract Zhu Mi's ridicule, but he didn't care.

"You and I both know what the source of war is, and if we want to be brutal and always reconciled, there is only one result."

As soon as Huang Zhang said this, Zhu Mi suddenly understood.

"You want to conquer the Southern Barbarians?"

As soon as this thought came out, Zhu Mi only felt that Huang Zhang was crazy.

It has always been the barbarians who have launched a battle against the Su country, how can the Su country rise up to fight against the barbarians?

I saw Huang Zhang shaking his head, "You know, it's impossible, and the cost is too great, I don't mean conquest, it's fusion, it's merger." ”

"What do you mean?"

These words really confuse Zhu Mi, isn't fusion a conquest?

"Look at this Langqi City, isn't this a typical example of brutal integration?"

β€œβ€¦β€¦β€

Langqi City is a port city opened by the Su State on the border at the beginning, in order to appease the barbarians, a place for the barbarians and the Su people to trade, over time, here the barbarian hybridization, although there is occasional chaos, but has been peaceful, it is indeed a model of national integration.

"Langqi City is just a small place, and it has no reference at all compared to Su Man." Zhu Mi poured cold water on Huang Zhang.

Compared to the Savage Lands, Langqi City is indeed too small.

saw Huang Zhang smile and suddenly asked; "Tell me, what is the difference between the former Langqi City and the current Langqi City?"

Zhu Mi is also a smart person, she immediately understood the meaning of Huang Zhang's words.

Huang Zhang saw that she was enlightened and explained to her: "In the past, Langqi City was governed by the Su people, and the barbarians were under the management of the Su people. Because the upper class of the Su people and the barbarians are different, the upper class of the Su people is the capital of the Su country, and the upper class of the barbarians is the main village of the barbarians. ”

"But look at it now, Langqi City under the leadership of the sacrificial hall is peaceful, where is there still a little bit of the manic atmosphere of the past, if you want to be truly harmonious with the barbarians, the barbarians and the sue people have to change the world."

As soon as these words came out, not only Zhu Mi, but even Hu Yi'er beside Huang Zhang was frightened.

Don't look at Huang Zhang's simple words, but the content here is definitely not simple.

Zhu Mi was immediately silent.

She was thinking about the weight of Huang Zhang's words and whether he was qualified to talk about this topic.

At the end, she suddenly asked, "Why should I trust you?" ”

Huang Zhang spread his hands, "What do you think was the purpose of sending you a troop in the first place?" Is it fun? ”

"Sure enough!" Zhu Mi had long known that Huang Zhang would not send himself a unit so casually, it turned out that his real purpose was here!

"I have learned that the barbarian priests are not happy to be in charge of the army, let alone train the army, but you are the only exception, you can make this army I gave you like this in a short period of time, it is not simple, you are an alternative barbarian priest, I believe, and only you can cooperate with me to complete this plan. That's why I'm coming to you alone. ”

"I'll have to consult with the high priest about this."

"Don't worry, you won't be able to act on this alone, and I have to talk to your high priest."

Zhu Mi knew Huang Zhang's thoughts, his meaning was very simple, if you want to suppress the barbarians and marry the same people forever, then there can be no more barbarian kings on the barbarian side, and on the side of the Su country, there will naturally be no Su court.

It sounds like a joke, but if a big prince says it, no matter how you think about it, it won't be a joke.

"The High Priest will not receive outsiders."

"There are exceptions to everything, after all, what I just said is a big thing for you barbarians, and it is not something that you and I can decide while sitting here and drinking tea."

"That's true, but it's not so easy to see the high priest."

After speaking, Zhu Mi clapped his hands, and a person who looked like a guard suddenly walked in.

"What? If I can't see the high priest, can't I sit here and have a cup of tea? ”

"Since His Royal Highness is here, the person who comes is a guest, I should be respectful and entertaining, how can there be any reason to drive the prince away."

As he spoke, Zhu Mi whispered a few words beside the guard.

"Haha." Huang Zhang couldn't help but laugh.

"What are you laughing at?"

Huang Zhang's loud laughter made Zhu Mi a little incomprehensible.

"The last time we met, you had a knife in your cuff, I can understand it, after all, I was the master and you were the guest. But now that the whole of Langqi City is under your control, why did you meet me again with the last ceremony? ”

"What does Your Highness mean by that?"

"What do you mean? Last time I brought a knife, this time I ambushed the knife and axeman, is Your Excellency the Priest in White so wary of me? ”

Hearing Huang Zhang's words, dozens of guards with knives suddenly poured out from the partitions on both sides.

Seeing these guards with knives, Hu Yier immediately got up to defend, while Huang Zhang calmly picked up the tea and drank it.

"Get out of here!" Zhu Mi said.

Then, she looked at Huang Zhang, "These people were not arranged by me, they were specially prepared by my subordinates to prevent accidents, and I apologized to His Highness for this inappropriateness." ”

Her face was a little ugly, and it could be seen that this was indeed not Zhu Mi's handiwork.

"It's okay, I didn't take it seriously, if I want to do it to you, just a few dozen people here, it's not enough to see at all."

As soon as Huang Zhang said this, Zhu Mi's eyes immediately sharpened.

"His Royal Highness the Great Prince, this is too light, right?"

What happened just now was indeed a mistake on her part, but Huang Zhang's words were somewhat contemptuous of her.

"If you don't believe it, forget it, if I do it, even if you hide in this sacrificial hall, you won't be able to escape."

"Huh." Zhu Mi smiled.

"Since His Royal Highness the Great Prince is so confident, why don't we make a bet?"

"How to bet?"

I saw Zhu Mi take out a sign from his cuff, hand it to the guards on the side, and signal the other party to leave.

"Didn't Your Highness say that if you make a move, even if I retreat in this sacrificial hall, I won't be able to escape, that is my identity card just now, I have always carried it with me, and now I put it up and put it under the god seat in the priest's hall, if you can get it when the sun sets tomorrow, I will admit defeat, how about it?"

"What about the bets?"

"If you win, I'll take you to the high priest. But if you lose......"

"What if you lose?"

"I want His Royal Highness the Great Prince to withdraw from now on, and I am not allowed to enter Langqi City for half a step!"

Hearing Zhu Mi's words, Huang Zhang understood that she was testing herself.

"Okay, bet on it, the sun will set tomorrow, right? Good. ”

Seeing that Huang Zhang agreed, Zhu Mi immediately made a gesture of sending off guests.

Subsequently, Huang Zhang and Hu Yier were invited out of the sacrificial hall.

As soon as the two of them left the sacrificial hall, Zhu Mi had already sent someone to completely surround the sacrificial hall inside and out, looking like this, I was afraid that even a fly would not be able to fly out.

In Zhu Mi's opinion, Huang Zhang said boldly just now, if he can't even pass this test, then there is no need to talk about the rest of the matter.

Without strength, it can only be delusional.
