After returning from rebirth, the eldest sister of Hou family destroyed her household registration b

Seeing Qin Li's guilty and helpless look, Chu Huanyan suddenly guessed something in her heart.

He silently withdrew his gaze and looked at Han Yang again.

Seeing that the latter ignored Qin Li, Chu Huanyan stepped in front of him and asked, "I wonder what Mr. Zuo wants to talk about?"

Han Yang's expression was indifferent, except for his pair of eyes, which were sharp and dazzling.

"I heard that the Queen's mother is the daughter of Mr. Zhou Yu and Bai Zhou?"

Chu Huanyan was stunned for a moment. Why did he talk about the Zhou family so well?

Facing Han Yang's gaze, Chu Huanyan nodded, "That's right."

"Although Mr. Zhou Yubai has retired from the Tianyi Court for many years, he was quite famous in the past. In addition, about eight years ago, he went out for a trip. At that time, Benxiang met Mr. Zhou by chance and received some advice from him. "The look on Han Yang's face became gentler, "It's fate to meet the Queen today."

"It turns out that there was this connection before, but since my father and mother passed away, I and my grandfather's family have stopped contacting each other and have never heard of it." Chu Huanyan said with a smile, her expression gentle.

Although Jinzhou is within the territory of Tianyi, it is not far from Danyue. There is Huzhou in the middle. However, the area of ​​Huzhou is not large, and it does not completely separate the two places. To some extent, it can be regarded as It is adjacent to Danyue Kingdom.

My grandfather once visited the Danyue Kingdom during his travels, which is normal. As for meeting Han Yang...

Chu Huanyan thought in her mind that regardless of whether her grandfather had really given Han Yang any advice, the fact that Han Yang waited here to mention it to her was probably just to reminisce about old times.

"The Empress has now entered the East Palace, and will also become the first female marquis in the history of Tianyi Kingdom. I think Mr. Zhou would be very happy if he knew about this honor. Why don't the Empress send someone to deliver a message..." Han Yang paused for a moment, then spoke again, "It's true that I was too talkative for a moment. Don't blame me, Queen."

"Prime Minister Han is serious. Thank you for your advice. If I have time in the future, I will naturally go back to visit the Zhou family."

Chu Huanyan did not tell the news that Zhou Yubai was seriously ill. After all, even if the person in front of him was not an enemy, he was definitely not a friend. There were some things he did not need to tell the other party.

"Your Majesty, you're welcome." Han Yang slightly cupped his hands, then took a step aside to get out of the way, "I won't bother you, Your Majesty. I'll take my leave."

"Prime Minister Han, walk slowly." Chu Huanyan nodded.

Watching the other party leave, Chu Huanyan was confused, but she didn't say anything more and quickly arrived at the imperial study room.

In the imperial study room, Xiao Jinzhi told Dan Yue's conditions.

"Want the land of Jinzhou and Huzhou? The Danyue Kingdom has a big appetite." Chu Huanyan looked at the map on display, "Why does Han Yang think that Tianyi Congress will agree?"

Even if horse trading is opened, it will be beneficial to both countries to a certain extent. If they want to exchange land for the two states, Danyue should not be so crazy yet, unless...

"What they proposed was an exchange." Xiao Jinzhi pointed to a large piece of grassland near the west of Danyue Kingdom on the map. "According to what Han Yang said, they want to exchange the five hundred miles of grassland in Danyue West for the lake, Shanxi two states, and the trade in horses was allowed only as an additional condition.”

Danyue's biggest advantage is its war horses. Not only are there excellent breeds, but there are also fertile grasslands, which form excellent grazing conditions. All of these have contributed to Danyue's horse advantage.

Although Tianyi Kingdom also has a racecourse to cultivate war horses, even the best racecourse cannot catch up with Danyue's innate advantage.

If we had this large grassland, we would no longer have to worry about war horses. In other words, if the two countries fight one day, Danyue's cavalry advantage will be greatly reduced.

"Are you ready to agree?" Chu Huanyan looked at Xiao Jinzhi, and immediately rejected the idea after saying it, but still asked, "What about the people in the two states? Are they going to become Danyue people from now on?"

"Han Yang proposed two plans. One is to emigrate collectively and move elsewhere. The other is that if the court and the people are willing, they can stay in their place of origin and guarantee that Danyue will treat everyone equally."

"This is too difficult." Chu Huanyan shook her head and said, "Not to mention that it is difficult to leave the homeland, and if the people feel that their homeland has become a bargaining chip for the court, I am afraid that most people will not be able to accept it."

Even if some people are willing to make sacrifices from the perspective of the interests of their family and country, I am afraid that most people will still not understand.

As for staying in your place of origin, everyone is treated equally...

If the people of the two countries live together in the same place, they may indeed be able to live in harmony decades or even hundreds of years later, but conflicts and frictions will inevitably occur at first.

"That's right." Xiao Jinzhi stared at the grassland on the map, "So I have no intention of agreeing."

It would indeed be great to have grasslands and excellent war horses. But he couldn't do it in exchange for sacrificing two states and people's homes.

Seeing Xiao Jinzhi's serious look, Chu Huanyan thought for a moment, "What about Beimo? What are the conditions Danyue Kingdom gives them?"

She believed that Xiao Jinzhi would not agree, but if faced with the same conditions, would Beimo choose to exchange?

Regardless of whether it is Tianyi or Beimo, the peace between the two countries is to some extent due to the equal balance of national power.

No matter which way the balance tilts, the situation that has been maintained for so many years may be broken.

"Exchange Cangwu Mountain for Beimo's Jinyue City."

Xiao Jinzhi's answer made Chu Huanyan stunned again.

Cangwu Mountain was actually the territory of Bei Mo, but it was occupied by Danyue after its defeat a few generations ago.

Cangwu Mountain is steep and steep. I heard that Danyue paid a heavy price to capture it. If it can be recaptured, it will be like adding a natural barrier to the Northern Mo Kingdom. It would be much more difficult for Danyue to send troops again.

As for Jinyue City, although it is located at the junction of the two countries and is quite prosperous, if it really encounters a war, its defense capabilities will naturally be far inferior to having a Cangwu Mountain.

Chu Huanyan took a deep breath, "Danyue Kingdom's move is more like attacking the heart."

Put forward a sufficiently tempting condition for both countries. Regardless of whether they agree at the moment, they will be suspicious of each other afterwards and suspect that the other party will agree to the matter.

"Yes, Dan Yue is indeed prepared this time. And I have a hunch that Han Yang has not exhausted all the cards in his hand." Xiao Jinzhi's eyes were dark, with the depth of an emperor.

Although Feng Sixi and Feng Yanmo did not show any intention of responding until they left, they thought that the news would soon be spread back to the capital of Northern Mo.

No, for such a big event, I am afraid that one of them will return to Bei Mo and report it personally to the Emperor of Bei Mo.

The fact was indeed as Xiao Jinzhi expected. At noon on the second day, Feng Yanmo entered Tianyi Palace again to bid farewell to Xiao Jinzhi.

"The second prince has decided that you will return to the country and the third princess will continue to stay in Tianyi?"

Xiao Jinzhi sat behind Long An and looked at Feng Yanmo.
