Shaomin felt looked down upon by Zhu Houzhao.

Zhu Houzhao seemed to be confident that he could control her. This was really underestimating him!

Her body could be controlled, but her mind could not!

Humph, Zhu Houzhao, sooner or later, this princess will use you as her cauldron!

Shaomin could remain calm, but Princess Maode could not.

"Prime Minister Cai, how is the discussion on horses and weapons going?"Princess Maude packed up her things and asked Cai Jing when she saw him and Zhang Juzheng coming back from their discussion.

Cai Jing bowed to Princess Maude before saying,"The price here at the Ming Dynasty is fair, 200 taels per horse. We at the Song Dynasty can arrange for someone to come and select them. As for the price of armor, it has not been negotiated yet, but it is estimated to be about the normal price.""

"200 taels a horse?"Princess Maode nodded slightly when she heard this. She didn't know much about these things, but she had bought horses before.

Ordinary horses are about 50 to 80 taels a horse, but that's just ordinary horses. As for war horses, the price is much more expensive than ordinary horses. 20,900 taels a horse is worth it.

Cai Jing: In fact, they only wanted 150 taels a horse at the beginning, but the old minister said that 150 taels a horse is too cheap, which is a bit unfair to the soldiers of the Ming Dynasty who are fighting bloody in the front.

We can't let these soldiers bleed and cry, so let's go for 180 taels a horse!

Moreover, do you need my people to purchase during this period? Some ordinary horses can also be mixed in during this period. We also need people from the Northern Song Dynasty to escort along the way. During this period, I will take some money. Not too much, right?

In fact, after Zhu Houzhao learned the news, he was still very disappointed with Cai Jing. This guy only took a kickback of 20 taels for a horse worth 200 taels. If this happened in the future, it would be unfair to them if the price of the horse did not increase to 500 taels.

The Ming Dynasty and Cai Jing completed the negotiation without Zhao Ji's consent.

Of course, no one doubted that Zhao Ji would refuse the deal. The Northern Song Dynasty, which was in urgent need of war horses, would not miss such an opportunity.

Even in normal times, the Northern Song Dynasty would buy war horses at 200 taels, not to mention the current wartime.

Even at 300 taels, Zhao Ji would buy it with his nose pinched.

A mere 30 million taels is nothing for the Northern Song Dynasty!

Not only Cai Jing thought so, but Princess Maud also thought so.

"After entering the palace, Princess Maude must strive to gain the favor of the Emperor, and then ask the Emperor to send troops to the Kingdom of Jin as soon as possible!"After thinking for a while, Cai Jing instructed Princess Maude again.

Princess Maude frowned when she heard it:"But didn't the Emperor say that there are no troops to help my Song Dynasty for the time being?"

Cai Jing looked at Princess Maude speechlessly. He wanted to ask, do you believe such words?

However, the other party was Zhao Ji's daughter after all, and now Zhu Houzhao's concubine. She also patiently explained:"Since the Emperor can gather troops to quell the Ning Wang Rebellion in such a short time, and also suppress the Qing Dynasty and Wala, if the Emperor had not prepared before, it would be impossible.

According to our estimates, leaving aside the Qing Dynasty, Wala, and the troops stationed in various places, the army that the Ming Dynasty can mobilize is at least more than 300,000."

Speaking of this, Cai Jing sighed in his heart. This is an army of millions!

Although, they also have millions of troops in the Northern Song Dynasty, there are 800,000 imperial guards alone.

As for the level of these imperial guards, well, there are now 500,000 imperial guards, fighting with the troops of Liao and Jin and being suppressed.

However, they believe that if they have the help of 200,000 troops from the Ming Dynasty, they are confident that Liao and Jin will retreat, and they may even be able to counterattack.

"Is that so?"Princess Maode frowned upon hearing this, but she did not say anything bad about Zhu Houzhao. It was normal for the Ming Dynasty to have reservations.

"Yes, so please try to persuade the Emperor to send troops to the Kingdom of Jin."Cai Jing then told Princess Maude:"The foundation of my Song Dynasty will be entrusted to you, Princess."

Li Mochou and Xiaolongnu, who were standing by, felt that something was wrong when they heard what Cai Jing said, but they couldn't say anything.

Isn't the Ming Dynasty willing to sell horses to you?

Why do you still want the Ming Dynasty to send troops?

They also need women like them to make efforts, but what about you officials and royal family members?

And what about the army of the Northern Song Dynasty?

Cai Jing's plan will eventually fail. During the long period of time when Princess Maude and Shaomin entered the palace, Zhu Houzhao did not go to see them directly, but continued to stay overnight in the Qun Yu Pavilion.

Bai Fanghua had given Zhu Houzhao some reminders before, and he really needed to take some actions.

For example, on the first day Shaomin and the others entered the palace, Zhu Houzhao came to Huang Rong.

When Huang Rong saw Zhu Houzhao's sudden arrival, her heart was pounding, and her pretty face flushed. She stammered and asked,"Brother Zhu, what are you doing here? Did you go to the wrong room?"

At this point, Huang Rong's expression was a little vague.

There are quite a few rooms in the Qun Yu Pavilion, and there were originally many other rooms that were also converted into bedrooms.

It's just that the master bedroom where Zhu Houzhao usually lives is bigger.

"What? Don't you welcome me?" Zhu Houzhao asked Huang Rong with a smile.

"No……"Huang Rong said quickly, and then welcomed Zhu Houzhao into the room.

Zhu Houzhao looked around the room, which was not small. After finding a seat and sitting down, he stared at Huang Rong and said,"During this period of time, have you gotten used to living in the palace?""

"It's OK, it's much more lively than Peach Blossom Island, Sister Yeyue, Sister Hanyi, Sister Bai all take good care of me."Huang Rong said quickly:"Besides, Rong'er is also happy to cook for everyone. It

's just that usually, everyone seems to be practicing very hard, and Rong'er is embarrassed not to work hard."

Huang Rong also saw that everyone around her was a king of rolls, especially Li Hanyi, she practiced the most diligently, no wonder she has already achieved a high level of heavenly cultivation at this age. With this level of diligence, it would be strange if her cultivation was not high
