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

Liu Changhan frowned and bowed slightly.

Since Xiao Jinzhi ascended the throne, everything has settled, and Liu Changhan has always been a little wary of the new emperor.

Therefore, he also restrained his past plans and calculations, focused most of his energy on government affairs, and began to perform his duties as prime minister with all his heart.

Xiao Jinzhi sat back in his chair and did not answer immediately. Instead, he looked at Liu Changhan and asked, "What is the Prime Minister's stance on this matter?"

In the past few days, although the courtiers were arguing very heatedly in the court, Liu Changhan did not fully state his position.

Liu Changhan took a slow breath, raised his hands and said again: "Your Majesty, this matter is of great importance, I am..."

"I just want to hear Prime Minister Liu's true thoughts. There is no need to worry about anything else." Seeing Liu Changhan's hesitation, Xiao Jinzhi said calmly.

Liu Changhan raised his head and glanced at Xiao Jinzhi. Although he could not figure out the other party's attitude towards this matter, he still said after a moment of silence: "Your Majesty, I don't support this."

"What's the reason?" Xiao Jinzhi asked.

"This matter does seem to be a good deal, but the worries of some courtiers are not unreasonable. Danyue Kingdom has always advocated military warfare and likes to start wars. Although the monarchs in previous years were brave, they lacked strategy, so our Tianyi and Bei The Mo Kingdom did not suffer much loss. But now this regent..."

Although Liu Changhan didn't finish what he said, there was obvious concern on his face.

Huangfu Ling, from a concubine of a down-to-earth family, became the regent of Danyue Kingdom in less than ten years. How could there be a lack of scheming and planning in this.

And are such people really willing to make the deal they are doing now, or is there a trap hidden behind this deal?

"So the reason why Prime Minister Liu didn't agree to this deal was because he was worried that Huangfuling had a back-up plan?"

"Yes." Liu Changhan nodded and glanced at Xiao Jinzhi again after finishing speaking, "Then... where is the Emperor?"

Regarding this matter, what exactly does the emperor think?

"I won't agree." Xiao Jinzhi said firmly.

"The emperor is also worried about Huangfu mausoleum..."

"People are not bargaining chips for transactions." Xiao Jinzhi interrupted Liu Changhan and looked at him seriously, "Prime Minister Liu, although Jinhu and Huzhou are located on the border, the border has been smooth and there has been no war in recent years. The two prefectures are rich in fish and rice, and they can live and work in peace and contentment. If you were one of those people, would you be willing to leave your homeland because of this?"

Liu Changhan looked hesitant, "Your Majesty, in the face of the righteousness of our family and country, we must make some sacrifices and sacrifices."

"The Prime Minister is right, but if there is really a need to pay, the first person to pay should be the one who enjoys the powerful position and is supported by the people. If today, I can sacrifice the homes of the people of the two states for the grassland and horses, let They moved to other places or returned to other countries. Then in the future, will they conscript and recruit soldiers in order to expand their territory and unify the world? "

Xiao Jinzhi breathed out a sigh of relief, and his eyes fell on the map of the Three Kingdoms spread out beside the wall.

"I agree that sacrifices should be made for the sake of the righteousness of the family and the country. If it really comes to a critical moment when sacrifices have to be made, I may not hesitate. But now, it is far from the time to disturb the peace and tranquility of tens of thousands of people."

Horses and grasslands are indeed attractive enough, but even if they are exchanged, it is impossible to completely change the disparity in cavalry power between the two countries within a few decades, or even within a hundred years.

The changes in the past few decades are still unknown. I cannot ignore the current shortcomings and the people at this moment under the guise of "profiting for the future."

What's more, even if the two countries go to war without the advantage of cavalry, Tianyi may not lose.

Liu Changhan looked at Xiao Jinzhi and saw the other party's determination. At the same time, he also saw that such determination must not have been made in the past two days.

"Your Majesty, may I ask if you had already thought about this transaction condition when Danyue proposed it and would not agree to it?"

"Yes." Xiao Jinzhi nodded calmly.

"Then why are you in the morning court..." Liu Changhan paused mid-sentence. He looked at Xiao Jinzhi and reacted belatedly, "Is it because of Bei Mo?"

"Feng Sixi stayed in the imperial city to wait for news. No matter what news she got, as long as Tianyi made a decision, Beimo would definitely make up his mind quickly after it was sent back."

But there is one thing that I and Liu Changhan agree on. Huangfuling will never be a character who spreads his hands to provide benefits to the other two countries.

Before the true intentions of Danyue Kingdom are clear, there is no harm in hanging on for a while and stalling for time.

"Your Majesty, what if Beimo doesn't care about our Tianyi's opinions and they agree directly as soon as the news is sent back?"

"Oh, those people in Beimo Jinyue City will probably break the backbones of those in power." Xiao Jinzhi said with a smile.

The two countries have good relations and have reached an alliance. It would be understandable if both countries agreed to the deal at the same time.

But as soon as he saw the benefits offered by Danyue, he would throw everything aside like a wild dog pouncing on his food, and the dignified Northern Mo Country would really lose its face. Based on his understanding of the Heavenly Mo Emperor, the other party should not be able to do such a thing that would disgrace the entire country in such a short period of time.

What's more, besides that, there should be another good show in the Beimo royal family...

In the post house, Feng Sixi had just received the news from the guards.

"So, during Tianyi's morning court today, Emperor Tianyi still didn't make any statement?"

"Back to Princess, that's right. The people we sent to inquire about the news came back and said that the courtiers argued endlessly in the morning, but until the end of the court, Emperor Tianyi did not make any decision, and did not even reveal his preference." The guard knelt on the ground and reported seriously.

Feng Sixi frowned and sat at the table, tapping the teacup in her hand with her fingertips.

"Is Xiao Jinzhi really undecided, or does he want to wait for us, Bei Mo, to express our stance first..."

Feng Yanmo must have been working hard all the way back this time. It is estimated that he will be back in the imperial city soon. When he goes back, in addition to this matter, his injury will also be completely exposed.

However, the key witness is still in Xiao Jinzhi's hands. If this witness is missing, the Emperor's brother...

"Hasn't there been any news in the past two days?" Feng Sixi looked at the guard kneeling on the ground.

Lu Ye has been with her for three years. On the surface, he was chosen by her, but in fact, he was sent by the eldest brother to be responsible for the communication between them.

Lu Ye shook his head, "Back to princess, not yet."

"Is it because I was delayed on the way, or because the eldest brother hasn't made up his mind." Feng Sixi couldn't help but feel worried.

Lu Ye looked up at Feng Sixi, hesitant...
