After being silent for a long time, Xu Jing never said anything.

The mood of the two princes became more and more depressed, and their hearts were extremely uneasy.

If the emperor in front of him regarded their request as a threat to the rebellion of the two vassal kings.

I'm afraid that the two of them may not even be able to get out of the gate of the East Palace.

"I can grant your request."

After a long time, Xu Jing spoke again. When the two vassal kings heard Xu Jing's words, their eyes widened and they looked up at Xu Jing.

"But it's not without conditions."

Xu Jing's words then calmed them down again.

Although the two of them had some psychological preparations before entering the East Palace, they still hoped to get the best conditions.

"What are the conditions for more than Your Majesty?"

King Yan took a deep breath and looked up at Xu Jing and asked.

Xu Jing replied with a slight smile: "It's very simple, I can't give you too many hole cards, and I can't let you and others support their own dignity." ”

"Therefore, if the King of Yan and the King of Dian want to give up his position as a defender of the territory, I am afraid that I will only take back your military power and a large area of land."

"Of course, equally, I will give the palace 300,000 taels of silver and a large enough piece of land every year."

Giving up military power and large tracts of land was a loss of the opportunity for the ambitious king to compete for the world again.

But it is an excellent condition for the two kings of Yan and Dian.

Not to mention that Xu Jing was actually willing to give them 300,000 taels of silver every year!

With such favorable conditions, how could they not be impressed.

"Your Majesty, we are naturally willing!"

"Yes, these conditions couldn't be better. I would like to thank Your Majesty for your kindness! ”

King Yan and King Dian excitedly kowtowed and shouted at Xu Jing.

"You don't have to bow like this, you paid for it with your life. If you have already made a decision, after the Lantern Festival, I will wait for a gathering at the house. ”

"At that time, I will personally let the two princes choose the land."

Xu Jing said to the two vassal kings in a very good mood.

"I'll wait for Your Majesty to summon me."

As he spoke, the two vassal kings lifted their heads with their hands and slowly left the palace.

"Your Majesty, 300,000 taels of silver is a bit too much, isn't it?"

Gonggong Cao complained about Xu Jing's generosity.

It seems that the two vassal kings only accounted for 600,000 taels of silver, which is not much in the tax revenue of the Great Qian.

But if 600,000 taels of silver were concretized, it would be enough to feed 200,000 people for a year!

Even with this huge amount of gold and silver, Daqian was able to build a cavalry team of more than 5,000 people.

"It's only 600,000 taels, but what a blessing is it to be able to hold two borders firmly in your hands?"

"Not to mention, as long as there are two borders, my subordinate army will have two more places to train. This is of great benefit to the cadres. ”

Xu Jingman said indifferently.

In fact, the deeper reason is that these two regions have always been battlegrounds, and they are also treasures rich in iron and copper.

As long as Xu Jing can firmly grasp these two places and develop them, the annual income will far from be just 600,000 yuan.

Most likely, it will reach three million or even four million!

"Your Majesty is reasonable, but the minions are short-sighted."

Gonggong Cao looked at Xu Jing, who was extremely excited, and spoke slowly.

"By the way, there are a few missions that have been invited this year."

Xu Jing then asked about the mission, and at this moment Xu Jing remembered a certain beauty who he hadn't seen for a long time.

"Almost all of them have been invited, but some small countries that are weak or whose land is about to fall are not at the top of the list."

Gonggong Cao was stunned, only puzzled.

It stands to reason that Xu Jing doesn't care about these things, and rarely pays attention to the mission.

"Lift the cochin forward."

Xu Jing ordered casually.

"Your Majesty, although the Jiaozhi region is not far from Daqian, it is only a small country. Not to mention, it is now in the midst of war. I'm just afraid of ........"

Gonggong Cao suddenly heard Xu Jing's request to explain the current situation of Jiaozhi.

"Understood, the minion will do it."

But after Gonggong Cao looked up and saw Xu Jing's unquestionable eyes, he trembled and nodded again and again.

"Go, I'll go for a walk."

Xu Jing nodded, planning to walk outside the East Palace.

Gonggong Cao wants to remind him that the current capital is stormy, and it is unlikely that it will explode.

If those who have two hearts for Xu Jing know that Xu Jing actually plans to go out, I am afraid that they will definitely not let go of such an opportunity to assassinate Xu Jing.

"The minions will arrange for some brocade guards to follow His Majesty around, so as to avoid accidents."

Gonggong Cao asked Xu Jing carefully, lest he anger the emperor, who was not in a good mood.

"No, just arrange two groups of people to accompany you. Too many people are not beautiful. ”

Xu Jing waved his hand and rejected the idea of Gonggong Cao sending heavy troops to accompany him.

"Okay, the minion will arrange it."

Gonggong Cao looked at Xu Jing's unquestioning eyes, so he could only sigh slightly and nodded, turned around and walked out.

Xu Jing returned to the dormitory and changed out of a dragon robe, and walked out of the East Palace slowly.

Not far behind him, more than a dozen flying fish suits were followed.

It's just that they deliberately distanced themselves at Xu Jing's request and didn't dare to get too close.

Last night, there was just a goose feather snow in the capital, and everything was covered in silver.

Under the first rays of the sun, Kyoto is refracted with a faint golden halo that looks particularly soft.

Along the way, there are also many hawkers and children playing along the streets.

"Sugar gourd, a big and delicious sugar gourd!"

Xu Jing walked leisurely on the snow, and there was a sound of selling in the distance.

And behind the merchants who carried the flat poles all the way to sell, there was a group of children whose faces were red from the cold.

"Let's have a string."

Xu Jing smiled faintly, walked slowly to the vendor and spoke.

"My lord, this is just a small business, I'm afraid we won't be able to redeem the silver."

The trafficker carefully looked at Xu Jing and determined that the young man in front of him was gorgeously dressed and must be a big man who was either rich or noble.

Don't dare to excuse yourself easily, and speak carefully.

"Then do more, and if you have more, it's a reward."

Xu Jingwen said with a smile.

"Thank you so much!"

The peddler stretched out his hands and took the silver ingot handed out by Xu Jing with a happy face, which was enough for two taels of silver!

No matter how much he sells in a day, he can only earn less than 100 wen at most.

Xu Jing's reward this time was comparable to his hard work for more than half a month, and the hawker was naturally extremely happy.

"These days, you're not doing well, are you?"

Xu Jing grabbed the already made sugar gourd in one hand, and asked while leaning against the wall and looking at the vendor who was burying his head in making sugar gourds.

Behind Xu Jing was a group of children with shiny eyes and swallowing saliva.

"Well, how could it be bad. Since His Majesty's accession to the throne, the days have been getting better and better every day. ”

"Like this year, the family has added three beds of cotton, and I can also send five feet of cloth to my son, if it was placed in previous years, I wouldn't dare to think of it!"

The vendor was in a good mood and shook his head.

"It would be great if the prosperous world could go on like this!"

The peddler suddenly sighed, leaving Xu Jing speechless.
