"If you let him be the deputy envoy, why don't you give him real power? Since you don't want him to work, why force him into the envoy?" Li Yuyao asked.

"Because this time to go to the peace talks, although the journey is hard and the responsibility is heavy, but in the end, it can be regarded as a fat job." Li Yuerong explained, "Father wants to promote the Wei family, but he is not sure about Wei Changqing's talent. I was afraid that he would mess up such an important matter. So he ordered Zhao Xu to be the leader, and at the same time found a "deputy envoy" position for the Wei family. Son, our Fifth Prince, support the scene."

After saying this, Li Yuyao understood, but Xiao Xueqiong was puzzled again: "Why did my sister say that it is a fat job to go to the peace talks? Let's not talk about the hard work all the way. Although the negotiation is a credit, if the result is not satisfactory, I'm afraid it will You will be punished. Also, why did you let such a bad-spoken person like our general go, to be honest, I really sweated for him!"

"Haha!" Zhao Xu laughed loudly, and explained: "Although I am clumsy in speech, all of the dozen or so entourages I brought with me are eloquent and resourceful. good.""

Li Yuerong is very expressive in front of Xiao Xueqiong, although she often does not realize it.As soon as Zhao Xu's voice fell, she added: "I said that the peace talks are a good job, and there is a basis for it. We have a new era of great events, and the Tuli people took advantage of the fire to loot and repeatedly violated the border. In recent months Since then, the situation has always been that the enemy attacks and we defend. Tuli has always been arrogant, but this time he took the initiative to make peace when the war is beneficial to them. Do you know why?"

"Because of……"

Before Zhao Xu finished speaking, Li Yuerong rolled his eyes.

"If you, the general in charge of the peace talks, don't know, our Dazhou probably won't last for a few days. I'm not asking you." Li Yuerong said angrily.

Zhao Xu was speechless, thinking that you didn't make it clear, come on, I'd better eat my meal honestly.

"Sister, you said it." Li Yuyao stayed in the deep palace on weekdays, either learning etiquette as a maid, or reading and writing. She was so boring.Today is a rare opportunity to listen to others talk about the great world outside, but he listened with gusto, so he urged.

"The praying mantis catches the cicadas, and the yellow sparrows follow. The Turians gathered heavy troops to fight us, but they forgot that there is a country called Xiliao next to them. The Xiliaos are different from the Turians in that their skin is generally whiter. Before the Turi people came, they had their own tribes, large and small, and although they spoke the same language and had similar customs, they did not have a unified country. Later, the Turi people grew stronger, and these large and small tribes in the Western Regions were conquered and became the Turi tribes. They are slaves of people. About three or forty years ago, some Xiliao people got rid of the enslavement of the Turians and established Xiliao together with some slaves of other ethnic groups. Although Xiliao is small, the terrain is dangerous, easy to defend and difficult to attack. Young and old, everyone practices martial arts, and all the people are soldiers. Probably because they have been enslaved and know what it's like to be a slave, so the Xiliao people fought desperately, which is really frightening."

"In this way, Xiliao and Tuli have a deep hatred." Li Yuyao said.

"It can be said that, but after all, the strength of the two sides is very different. Xiliao is in a weak position, so naturally they will not take the initiative to challenge Tuli. As for Tuli, although they are sure to win the battle with Xiliao, they have to be wary of us. Moreover, the Central Plains is vast and rich in resources, rich in resources and rich in resources, far from being comparable to the borderlands of the Western Regions. The Turians have coveted this for a long time. Although there were many small conflicts between Liao and Tuli, there have been few major battles over the years."

"So, when Tuli was at war with us this time, Xiliao made a surprise attack, and Tuli was attacked by the enemy, so they sent someone to make peace?" Xiao Xueqiong asked.

Li Yuerong nodded approvingly: "That's right."

Li Yuyao still didn't understand: "Since the national strength of Xiliao is far inferior to Tuli, why did they dare to attack this time? Aren't they afraid that Tuli will retaliate against them after they make peace with us?"

"Good question." Li Yuerong responded, "They are making such risky moves, either because the monarch is too stupid to know the truth of taking a chestnut out of a fire, or they have already reached some kind of agreement with our Dazhou. Judging from the current situation, it is obvious that The latter. Right? General Zhao?"

Li Yuerong turned her face to ask Zhao Xu, after all, she had been away from the court for a long time, and she could only analyze and speculate on military and state affairs by herself after inquiring about the news.

Zhao Xu nodded, confirming Li Yuerong's thoughts, but after all, it was a confidential matter, fearing that the two little girls, Li Yuyao and Xiao Xueqiong, would inadvertently reveal it, so Zhao Xu did not continue the discussion, but brought the topic to the West Liao Kingdom : "The Western Liao Dynasty seems to have been suppressed by Tuli in recent years, but it is not ineffective. They have been expanding northward. Not long ago, they just annexed Gaoche. Gaoche has sufficient water sources, relatively flat terrain, and is rich in famous Ma Liang. As a result, Xiliao's national power has greatly increased."

"Gaoche!?" Li Yueyao and Xiao Xueqiong said in unison, but compared to Xiao Xueqiong, Li Yuyao's tone was more urgent.

"Yes, it's Gaoche, why?" Zhao Xu didn't know why.

"It's nothing, I think it sounds familiar." Xiao Xueqiong scratched her head, then asked Li Yuyao, "Where did you hear it?"

"Not only have I heard that Turan is Gao Che's dowry." Li Yuyao replied.

"Ah, I remembered, Yuyao, you have a really good memory!" Xiao Xueqiong said with a smile.

Li Yuyao's expression was not so good-looking. She murmured: "Let me tell you, the day my father called me to the study, I met the envoy from Xiliao, but I was rewarded with pomegranates from Gaoche. It seems that at that time, Xiliao I've already got off the high car, and Turan still doesn't know anything, and keeps talking about how good his hometown is..."

"The envoy of Xiliao?" Zhao Xu pondered for a while, and asked, "It happened before autumn, that's true. Gaoche existed in name only a few years ago, but this year their commander-in-chief only accepted Xiliao's envoy." Canonization. Speaking of Gaoche, he can be regarded as one of the most powerful states in the Northwest. It is unexpected that he fell so soon. Xiliao also has a large number of talents, so we must guard against it..."

"Isn't Gaoche our vassal? Why don't you help them? Just see them being annexed by Xiliao?" Li Yuyao was a little emotional.

Zhao Xu sighed softly: "When the Western Liao soldiers approached the high chariot, we had internal and external troubles and were too busy to take care of ourselves, so we could only..."

Li Yuerong interrupted Zhao Xu, and asked Li Yuyao directly: "Do you find it difficult to accept? When Turan first came to the Central Plains, Gao Che could barely be called a feudal vassal. After a few years, they bowed their heads to Tuli. Do you think it is necessary to save such a "vassal" who has turned into a Tuli warhorse and ran amok on our land?"

"..." Li Yuyao was speechless, knowing that her elder sister was very serious about such things, so she didn't dare to speak more to make her angry.Secondly, she was really ashamed, because she really only asked Turan because of Turan, and she didn't think too much about it.

Xiao Xueqiong was also taken aback by Li Yuerong's sudden anger, she quickly took Li Yuerong's hand, and complained coquettishly: "It's just chatting, why is sister so excited? Yuyao and I haven't been out much, these things are of course Not as much as you and the General know."

After hearing this, Li Yuerong also felt that she was unreasonable, and Li Yuyao was no longer a little girl, even though she was the elder sister, she had to take the little girl's face into consideration. "I'm the one who went too far. My sister didn't blame you. Yuyao, don't take it to heart." Li Yuerong patted Li Yuyao's head to apologize.

Li Yuyao shook her head, how could she care about such a trivial matter.It's just that now she thinks of the Haikou she once boasted: if she wants to send Turan back to Gaoche thoroughly before getting married, she won't be happy anymore.

"I have come into contact with the second prince of Xiliao. Although he is not of my race, he is indeed a dragon and phoenix among people, which makes people feel awe. During the spring hunting next year, the princess can meet for a while." Zhao Xu said to Li Yuerong.
