On the wedding night, the villain husband cried and his eyes turned red

Nearly a month later, General Guan led his army to the palace of Suwu Kingdom. When he saw the king of Suiwu kneeling on the ground, begging them to spare his life, General Guan, who was walking at the front, suddenly spoke and said something in Suiwu:

[I can give you a chance to live, but from now on, you must obey my orders. 】

King Suwu quickly nodded in agreement. He was afraid that General Guan would not believe it, so he knelt on the ground and kowtowed.

Among the soldiers who came with General Guan, there were a few confidants who understood what the general said, and were surprised and a little excited.

The general has sacrificed his life for the emperor. At this age, he finally lost his temper and started to think of rebellion?

The rest of the people couldn't understand the Suwu language, but they also knew that the king of the Suwu Kingdom had surrendered to the general. As for what to do next, we still have to wait for the emperor to make up his mind.

"Your Majesty, Old General Guan sent someone to deliver another letter. I heard from the person who delivered the letter that our army has reached the palace of Suwu Kingdom, and the king of Suwu Kingdom has knelt down to beg for mercy."

Hearing this, the emperor's face suddenly showed joy. He did not dare to delay, so he quickly took the letter and read it carefully. As he watched, the joy on his face gradually disappeared, followed by worry.

The letter stated that the Guan Army had achieved a complete victory this time, and the King of Suwu State had expressed his intention to surrender. However, it remains to be decided by the emperor whether to take the Suwu Kingdom into his possession.

The Suwu Kingdom has a vast territory, comparable to the land area of ​​the Wanhua Kingdom. If you take over rashly, I'm afraid there will be a lot of trouble later.

The first thing to be dealt with is the people of Suwu Country. There are two ways before them. One is to kill them all in one go, completely eliminating any hidden dangers in the future. The other is to accept them and make them citizens of the Kingdom of Wanhua.

The population of Suwu Country is not small. If they were to be killed, not only would it take a lot of effort, but also the surrounding countries would be aware of it, and they might become hostile to Wanhua Country.

Besides, the Suwu Kingdom is located in the north of the Wanhua Kingdom, and the climate is cold and unsuitable for planting and animal husbandry. The people of Wanhua Kingdom even despised Hezhou, so naturally no one would be willing to take the initiative to live in Suwu Kingdom.

If you can't kill them, then you can choose to accept them and let these people from the Suwu Kingdom become the people of the Wanhua Kingdom. However, this road doesn't work either.

The Suwu people are all blond and blue-eyed, and they belong to a different race from the Wanhua people. Once they are accepted, a marriage between the two countries will inevitably occur.

In the letter, General Guan said. Because the distance is too close, Hezhou already has a precedent for the marriage between the two countries. But among the children born to people from Wanhua and Suwu, the majority are blond and blue-eyed.

Once this hole is opened, there will probably be more and more blond and blue-eyed people among the people of Wanhua Kingdom in the future. Over time, I'm afraid it will confuse the bloodline of the people.

The emperor put down the letter in his hand and imagined that when he went to court, some of the civil and military officials had yellow hair, some had blue eyes, and some had hooked noses on their faces, and he felt a headache.

"No, no, we must not let this happen."

The emperor talked to himself for a long time, but finally made up his mind and adopted Guan Yi's suggestion. From now on, the Suwu Kingdom will become a vassal state of the Wanhua Kingdom, which will need to pay tribute every year and allow Wanhua Kingdom's troops to garrison in the Suwu Kingdom.

In the past, there were widespread complaints among the people about forced conscription. The war was finally over, and those young men who had rushed to get there did not want to stay in the military camp for a moment, and tried their best to go back.

If they are forced to go to Suwu Country to garrison, not only will they not be able to have a deterrent effect, they may also cause other troubles. After much thought, Guan Jiajun still had to take the lead.

Therefore, Cheng Huaiyuan, who had made a lot of contributions in this war, was promoted from the fifth rank to the fourth rank, was awarded the title of General Zhenbei, and took a part of the Guan family army to the Siwu Kingdom to guard it.

Considering that Guan Yi was old and could not bear the cold environment of Suwu Kingdom, the emperor asked him to stay in Hezhou and be responsible for the training of new soldiers.

This war made many people realize the importance of generals. Those bastards who had no talent for reading but wanted to make a difference, and men who came from poor families, joined the army one after another.

After a period of training, some of them will take over the Guan family's army and be stationed in Suwu country. If you stay there for a few years, you will get a considerable amount of money when you come back, and if you are lucky, you can find a good place to go.

For a time, Wanhua Kingdom set off a wave of joining the army, and the Guan family's status also rose. Xu Shihuan thought that she could return to Yong'an City now, but she didn't expect that the emperor's imperial edict directly left her in Hezhou and made her the prefect of Hezhou.

Now, Xu Shihuan became a fourth-rank official, still a head shorter than Cheng Huaiyuan. She had mixed feelings, secretly thinking that the emperor was really stingy. But when she calmed down, she realized that she was promoted this time because of the emperor's mercy.

After all, it is not appropriate to let too many people know about the use of poppies in Suwu Country, as that will cause a lot of trouble. Although Hezhou is a bitter cold place, with a large number of new soldiers coming here for training, Hezhou may become lively.

She couldn't help but feel excited when she remembered that Wen Yidi had bought many stores in Hezhou behind the Wen family's back and was preparing to join other shopkeepers in doing business.

From Hezhou to Suwu Kingdom, the most powerful civil servant was her, Xu Shihuan, and the two most powerful generals were her grandfather and Cheng Huaiyuan. Plus Wen Yidi, a businessman, it was difficult for others to interfere.

The sky is high and the emperor is far away. Although the current situation in Hezhou and Suwu is not optimistic, it also gives them more opportunities. By guarding this world, even if one day the emperor has bad intentions towards the Xu family and the Wen family, they will be able to resist.

As for Wen Yidi, he handed the emperor a note early and expressed his attitude of wanting to go to Suwu Country to look for business opportunities. If we can find a good opportunity to establish trade between the two countries, the military expenditures stationed in Suwu Country will be available.

As for the affairs that he was responsible for in Yong'an City, he selected a few suitable candidates for the emperor's consideration, hoping that they could temporarily handle them on his behalf.

The emperor did not give him an accurate answer, but ordered him to return to Yong'an City for further discussion. Wen Yidi was not worried about this. He knew in his heart that the emperor was short of money now, otherwise he would not have left all the mess in the Suwu Kingdom to the Guan family to deal with.

Besides, the Wen family's money played a big role in the Guan family's victory this time. The emperor did not give any reward to the Wen family, so his wishes would probably not be embarrassed.

The only difficult thing is the Wen family. Behind the Wen family's back, he wooed the young shopkeeper and secretly formed his own power, fearing that his parents would know about it.

If the emperor chooses Wen Yian to succeed him, his parents will go crazy to stop him. He doesn't mind mentioning his life experience if necessary.
