In fact, if possible, Zhu Houzhao would not mind alienating the relationship between the Mongols and Shaomin. After all, the King of Ruyang also has a large number of soldiers and horses, and Shaomin's brother Wang Baobao is also a famous general who can be ranked among the top in the Mongols.

However, considering that Shaomin's recent performance has made Zhu Houzhao very satisfied, especially let Zhu Houzhao feel what it means to be kind-hearted.

At this time, Zhu Houzhao does not intend to pit Shaomin. If there is a chance in the future, after defeating the Mongols, it is not a problem for him to keep Wang Baobao and the King of Ruyang.

At this time, Zhu Houzhao also hopes that Xixia can be a little bit stronger and delay the Mongols for the Ming Dynasty.

Xixia is a small country, but if it can delay the Mongols for more than half a year, Zhu Houzhao said that the other party is a great contributor on his side.

Helian Tieshu's heart sank when he heard Zhu Houzhao's words. In fact, if possible, they Xixia also wanted to invade the Northern Song Dynasty to get a share of the pie, but considering the Mongols in the west, they Xixia did not dare to act rashly.���

"Your Majesty, we from Western Xia came here to establish a strategic alliance with the Ming Dynasty! If the Mongols invade our Western Xia in the future, Your Majesty would like to consider the relationship of marriage and involve the Mongols' army for our Western Xia."Helian Tieshu was a reckless man, and at this time, he could only speak directly.

Li Canghai and Li Qinglu sighed silently in their hearts. This Helian Tieshu was indeed not a good choice for a negotiation mission!

If it weren't for the fact that Helian Tieshu was Li Qiushui's confidant and was a good leader of troops, otherwise this time, it would really not be suitable for Helian Tieshu to come on a mission.

"Should we send troops to help contain the Mongol army when the Mongols attacked Xixia?" Zhu Houzhao tapped the dragon throne with his fingers, and he pretended to say something else:"Shaomin, the Princess of Ruyang of the Mongol Yuan Dynasty, is now the Yuan Concubine of my Ming Dynasty. Recently, my Ming Dynasty has also reached a considerable commercial cooperation with the Mongol Yuan Dynasty.

Now the Mongol Yuan Dynasty is considered to be a friendly country of our Ming Dynasty. Xixia wants us to stab the Mongol Yuan Dynasty in the back!

This makes me a little confused!"

"Emperor Ming, the expansion of the Mongols is not a good thing for the Ming Dynasty!"Helian Tieshu said hurriedly

"I understand this!" Zhu Houzhao nodded slightly and said:"I mean that Xixia has to pay more!""

The Mongols are your friendly country, so they have to pay more?

I have never seen such a shameless person!

"What does the Emperor need?"Helian Tieshu first glanced at Li Qinglu, and when he saw her nod slightly, he asked Zhu Houzhao

"This point?" Zhu Houzhao also showed a hesitant look when he heard this. For a moment, he really didn't know what he should ask Xixia for.

After all, what Xixia has, they also have in the Ming Dynasty!

It's impossible to ask Xixia to send a few more princesses, right?

Zhu Houzhao is not a princess collector, and he doesn't need the other party to continue to send princesses to him!?

"I don't know for the time being!" Zhu Houzhao also covered his face, but he still said:"By the way, your Xixia is rich in jade, use that as a reward!

If the Mongols send troops to Xixia, my Ming Dynasty can send 200,000 troops to harass the Mongols. As for more, my Ming Dynasty can't take it out for the time being!"

Two hundred thousand?

Helian Tieshu frowned. Two hundred thousand troops are actually not a small number. If you try hard, you can attract more than 100,000 or even more than 200,000 troops from the Mongols.

After all, the combat effectiveness of the Ming army is unquestionable.

By then, the Southern Song Dynasty will not be able to ignore it. If the Mongols send 200,000 or 300,000 to attack their Xixia, they can still defend it.

As for the jade that Zhu Houzhao wanted, it was not a scarce commodity for them in Xixia. This was much better than asking them for war horses.

"Thank you very much, Emperor Ming!" Helian Tieshu said quickly.

""Yes!" Zhu Houzhao also thought of Xixia at this time. It seems that there are still some good things there, such as wolfberry, and wolfberry!

Forget it, jade is jade! (To read the exciting novel, go to Feilu Novel Network!)

"As for Princess Yinchuan, she will be named Consort Xia!"After thinking for a while, Zhu Houzhao continued,"As for the betrothal gifts, I will not prepare them. When the Mongols send troops to Xixia, I will send troops to help contain them."

"" Thank you, Your Majesty!" Helian Tieshu said hurriedly.

Li Qinglu glanced at Li Canghai behind her and saw him nodding slightly at her. She also breathed a sigh of relief and saluted to Zhu Houzhao, saying,"Your Majesty, I have seen you."

"Well, Concubine Xia, you and my Concubine Shu are old friends. After you enter the harem, you may go and meet her." Zhu Houzhao then glanced at Li Canghai with a half-smile.

Li Canghai was also startled when he heard this. Was he seen through by Zhu Houzhao?

And why did he feel suppressed when he looked at Zhu Houzhao?

Could it be that Zhu Houzhao is actually a land immortal?

Impossible, absolutely impossible. The other party is just a 17-year-old boy. How could he be a land immortal?

But Zhu Houzhao seemed to be very secretive. After entering the palace, she still needed to be careful. After all, she was not her sister Li Qiushui.

At that time, she could not be dragged by Zhu Houzhao to party together. She, Li Canghai, had been pure and innocent for more than 80 years, and she must not do anything reckless.

……………………………………………………

After the court session, Zhu Houzhao came to Concubine De. When Princess Maude, Xiaolongnu and Li Mochou saw Zhu Houzhao, they were obviously stunned.

Especially Princess Maude felt aggrieved.

This was the first time she saw Zhu Houzhao after entering the palace. What was going on now?

(What is the result of all the hard work?

Princess Maode is very confident in her appearance, but why did Zhu Houzhao seem to have forgotten about her before?

Could it be that she is not as good as the Princess Yuan? I heard that His Majesty often went to the Princess Yuan these days.

".Meet Your Majesty!" Although she felt wronged, when she saw Zhu Houzhao coming, Princess Maode still took the lead in paying respect to him.

"Well, no need to be polite!" Zhu Houzhao stepped forward, took hold of Princess Maode's hand and said softly,"I'm sorry that I have neglected you during this period of time."

"Your Majesty is so busy that it is normal for you not to think of me."Princess Maude smiled.

Seeing Princess Maude's smile, Zhu Houzhao was slightly distracted. She is indeed the most beautiful woman in the Northern Song Dynasty. Even though he is used to seeing beautiful women, he still feels moved. (Please give me flowers, monthly tickets, and automatic subscription. Muah, I love you!).
