Molested Zulong at the beginning

"As long as you can see His Majesty, all this is worth it."

Princess Yueshi raised her head slowly and said: "Your Majesty the Great First Emperor, this is my Yueshi's credential, which was written by the Yueshi King himself. I hope His Majesty will read it."

A gleam of interest flashed in Sister Zheng's phoenix eyes, and she waved to the messenger beside her.

The messenger walked over quickly, and took a scroll of sheepskin tied with a red string from Princess Yueshi's hand.

Sister Zheng looked at the document presented by the envoy, glanced at it casually, and lost interest.

Most of the above are some polite official words, no actual content, just some flattering words, the central idea is that the political sister is awesome, and I hope to hug my thigh and communicate with Daxia.

Sister Zheng gently put down the parchment in her hand, and her phoenix eyes looked at Princess Yueshi below: "The envoy is here to work, you have worked so hard on this long journey, come here, give me wine..."

Soon, a group of maids came in from outside the palace, carrying tables, wine and dishes.

All the officials also took their seats one after another, and the atmosphere in the hall became much more relaxed for a while.

After drinking for three rounds, Princess Yueshi glanced at the political sister on the throne, and immediately got up and said: "Your Majesty, I waited this time to show my sincerity and brought some gifts to offer. Outside the palace, please His Majesty summon you."

A trace of curiosity flashed in Sister Zheng's phoenix eyes, and she nodded lightly immediately.

Princess Yueshi shouted to the door: "Bring me the gift."

Not long after, all civil and military officials of the imperial court saw a person walking in leading a tall horse.

Wang Jian's eyes lit up when he saw this, and he couldn't help but secretly said in his heart, what a horse.

She has fought for most of her life, and she has never seen such a good horse. Compared with the common horses in the Central Plains, it is more than a star and a half stronger.

Even Sister Zheng couldn't help but take a second look, and couldn't help but ask, "What's the name of this horse?"

"This is a western domain horse that can travel thousands of miles a day and [-] nights. Because of its thin skin, when running, the sweat beads glow in the blood under the light of the blood vessels, so it is called a blood-sweating horse."

Princess Yueshi said with a smile: "This time we specially brought ten hard-earned BMWs. In addition to these, there are also fine wines and ten carts of melons and fruits from the Western Regions, all of which are dedicated to His Majesty."

When Wang Jian heard that there were ten horses, his eyes lit up immediately, and he thought of asking Sister Zheng for horses after the banquet.

When Sister Zheng heard that there were such good horses in this place called the Western Regions, a bold idea came to her mind.

But she didn't show it on her face. After pondering for a moment, she asked: "The envoy came all the way and offered such a precious gift. It shouldn't be just for the sake of friendship."

Princess Yuezhi took a deep breath and said: "Since His Majesty has noticed it, I will not hide it anymore. In fact, we came here this time to ask for one thing."

Sister Zheng was taken aback for a moment, and asked, "What's the matter?"

"I implore Your Majesty to send troops and join hands with the Yue clan to fight against the Xiongnu."

Princess Yuezhi took a deep breath, and looked straight at Sister Zheng with jewel-like eyes.

"Hun!"

Sister Zheng's phoenix eyes froze for a moment, remembering the prophecy of Hu Ye, who died in the summer, and her slender eyebrows frowned slightly: "Didn't the Huns be defeated by Meng Tian and driven away for thousands of miles?"

Princess Yuezhi shook her head: "The Huns were indeed defeated by General Meng Tian of your country, but the Huns did not decline because of this. Under the leadership of a Shanyu named Mao Dun, the Huns defeated the powerful enemies in the grassland one after another. Lin Hu , Donghu."

"The grassland tribes in Monan and Liaodong have been brought under the command one after another, and there is a tendency to dominate the entire grassland."

"Now that the Xiongnu have defeated Donghu, the Xiongnu have more than [-] cavalry, which is unmatched in the entire grassland. Now Modun has begun to set his sights on the Western Regions. My Yuezhi tribe is located at the gate of the Western Regions and is the first among them."

"Your Majesty, if the Xiongnu continue to grow, once they annex our Yuezhi and other countries in the Western Regions, their next target will probably be His Majesty in the south."

"There is an allusion in your country, which is called the lips die and the teeth are cold. Your Majesty will not send troops to rescue my Yueshi now. Once the Xiongnu grows beyond control in the future, the Central Plains will be invaded by the Xiongnu."

"I also ask your Majesty to send troops to save our Yueshi and deal with the Xiongnu on the basis of common interests."

Chapter 58 Mother and Daughter with Different Minds

There was silence in the hall, the officials gently put down the wine cups in their hands, and each of them frowned.

Those present were all officials from the official residence of Jiuqing, so they couldn't understand what Princess Yueshi meant. It was false that she came to Xianyang for an audience, but it was true to ask for reinforcements.

This guy first held Datang high and boasted a lot, and he was worshiping and giving gifts at the same time.

It is only now that I have explained the stakes, and I want His Majesty to send troops to rescue him. This is clearly not wanting His Majesty to refuse.

After all, sister Zheng has always been wary of the Xiongnu. Because of the prophecy of Hu Ye, who died in the summer, she directly sent Meng Tian to lead an army of 30 to drive out the Xiongnu, build the Great Wall in the north, and resist the Xiongnu.

Now that the Xiongnu have annexed all the tribes of the grassland, with more than [-] troops, they have become a unified and powerful regime. Facing the threat of the rising of the north, how can the political sister sit idly by.

Secondly, this time the foreign countries took the initiative to come to court.

Sister Zheng took it very seriously, and even ordered officials from all over the country to be responsible for escorting.

If the final result is nothing, wouldn't it be shameful in front of the remnants of the Six Kingdoms.

This kind of thing that would damage one's own prestige was naturally not allowed to happen with the strong character of the political sister.

Wang Jian saw what Sister Zheng was thinking, so he put down the wine cup in his hand.

She walked out slowly, cupped her hands and said: "Your Majesty, if the Xiongnu grows like this, it will definitely become a major problem for the north in the future. Why not solve it before the Huns grow stronger."

What she said immediately won the support of all the young generals in the hall, and they all came out to fight with their fists clasped, willing to lead the army to conquer the Huns in the north.

After all, the Great Xia established its country with military force, and if it wants to be promoted to rank, it depends on military merits.

But since Sister Zheng unified the world, there has been no war in the Central Plains for a long time, which has already made them itchy.

Now that they have finally had the opportunity to gain military exploits, naturally one by one is scrambling to fight.

"Your Majesty, you can't..."

At this moment, a woman in a black and red brocade dress, with her hands and feet like a willow in the wind, came out from the table.

It was the Prime Minister of Da Xia, Li Si.

She cupped her hands and said, "Your Majesty, our Central Plains is thousands of miles away from the Great Wall. Hundreds of thousands of troops marched thousands of miles north to fight the Xiongnu. The logistical pressure is too great."

"This grassland battle is not like the siege of the city in the Central Plains. The Xiongnu live in water and grass, and there is no fixed place to live. It is difficult for us to take the initiative to fight against the main force of the Xiongnu."

"The 10 people who eat horse chews every day have an astronomical amount of logistics. Once the stalemate lasts for half a year, the imperial treasury will be exhausted and the finances will be completely dragged down."

"The corvée in the world will also increase the pressure of taxation. The Central Plains is afraid of chaos. In my opinion, there is no need to go on an expedition against the Xiongnu. You only need to stick to the Great Wall."

Sister Zheng frowned with her slender willow eyebrows. After thinking about what Li Si said, she hesitated for a moment.

"His Majesty……"

Princess Yueshi was taken aback for a moment, as if she wanted to say something.

"Please envoys go down to rest for the time being, and I will reply to you after I have discussed it." Sister Zheng didn't say much, and waved her hand to the maid to send her down to rest.

Seeing this, Princess Yueshi could only sigh helplessly, and retreated slowly under the leadership of the maid.

......

......

In the sleeping hall.

Sister Zheng rubbed her aching temples with her fair and slender fingers, a trace of fatigue appeared in her phoenix eyes.

She had just summoned Wang Jian, Li Si, Wei Liao, Meng Yi and other important court officials, and discussed with them their views on the Xiongnu.

I got a helpless answer, I can't play.

Although all the military generals have supported the Northern Expedition to the Huns, in order to prevent the Huns from growing in the future and becoming a threat to the Central Plains.

However, with the current national strength of the imperial court, it simply cannot support such a large-scale expedition beyond the Great Wall.

After all, just as Li Si said, the Xiongnu lived in no fixed place, and mainly cavalry came and went like the wind, occupying the innate initiative.

As for the soldiers and horses in the Central Plains, because of the need to take care of the logistics, food, grass and supplies, frontier fortresses were built along the way, and the cities were used to store supplies, so the marching route was fixed, and it was difficult to take the initiative to fight against the main force of the Huns.

As a nomadic tribe, the Xiongnu can fight if they can beat it, and run away if they can't beat it, and make a comeback later.

However, the Central Plains is dominated by agriculture and mulberry, and the cost of using large-scale foreign troops is really too high, and there is no way to dispatch troops over and over again.

As the so-called good fighters have no great achievements, unless they are sure to destroy the main force of the Huns in the first battle, so that the Huns will not have the ability to threaten the Central Plains in the next ten or 20 years, otherwise it is better not to fight this battle.

"Are you going to reject Yuezhi's request and give up this opportunity to join forces against the Huns?" Sister Zheng's slender willow eyebrows frowned slightly, and she murmured softly.

At this time, a clever little head poked in from the entrance of the hall, blinking a pair of strange eyes.

Seeing Sister Zheng sitting alone at the table, her eyes lit up and she ran in happily.

"Mother mother..."

"Little Hu'er, where have you been these two days?"

Sister Zheng touched her black hair, and a smile appeared on her graceful and luxurious face.

Hu Yan rolled his eyes and said with a smile: "Hey hey hey, the emperor is bored recently, let's go for a walk."

Sister Zheng glanced at her with a half-smile in her phoenix eyes: "You are going to see that Bai Su."

"My lord~"

Hu Yan shook Sister Zheng's arm in embarrassment, then seemed to think of something, and asked, "My lord, recently the Yuezhi mission came to Xianyang, did they come to ask for reinforcements from my lord?"

Sister Zheng was stunned: "How do you know?"

When summoning Princess Yuezhi, there were only Wang Jian and others present. She also just learned about the purpose of the Yuezhi tribe, not long ago.

But Hu Yan just came back, how did he know the content of the negotiation between the DPRK and China?

When Hu Yan heard this, a look of surprise appeared on his fair face: "He really hit the mark."

Sister Zheng was taken aback for a moment, and immediately asked, "The man you're talking about, could it be Bai Su?"

Hu Tan nodded and said softly, "When I was in Handan City, Bai Su said that he could watch the sky at night, and he could pinch and count. I didn't believe it, so I made a bet with him."

"Let's see if he can guess the purpose of the mission and the final result. Bai Su said at the time that the purpose of the Yuezhi tribe was to seek troops. As for the result..."

"It must be Mother who rejected the Yuezhi tribe's request, and the two parties broke up unhappy."

"I thought he was going to lose, but I didn't expect to be hit by him."

Sister Zheng was taken aback, and there was a hint of surprise in her phoenix eyes.

Naturally, she is not as naive as Hu Tan, and she believes that Bai Su knows what to pinch and calculate.

Having been with Bai Su for a long time, it can be seen that Bai Su doesn't know any fairy arts, but just understands some things that ordinary people don't understand.

Eighty percent of the results were calculated based on some changes in the situation, after analysis, but thinking about it this way, it was even more surprising.

You know, when Hu Yan went to Handan to look for Baisu, the Yuezhi tribe had not yet reached Xianyang.

In other words, when Bai Su was still on the way with the Yuezhi Mission, he had already guessed the purpose of the Yuezhi Mission and the final result.

This vision for judging the situation in the world is simply jaw-dropping.

Hu Yan pouted, and said in a low voice: "I didn't expect to lose, it seems that I can't bully him."

Sister Zheng rolled her phoenix eyes, and smiled brightly: "Who says you can't bully him anymore."

Hu Yan was stunned for a moment: "My lord, what do you mean..."

The corner of Sister Zheng's mouth twitched slightly: "Since he can see the result in advance, there must be a solution. I will call him into the palace to give me advice. This rouge horse, which has been idle for a long time, is also time to pull it out for a ride." gone."

"But mother, didn't you say that Bai Su had a grudge against the court and didn't want to be an official?" Hu Yan was taken aback for a moment.

"He has already taken the valuables from me, so naturally he can't escape from my palm."

Sister Zheng recalled the scene of being kissed by Bai Su in front of her daughter after getting drunk that night.

She touched her lips with her white jade hands, a blush appeared on her graceful and luxurious cheeks, and her silver teeth were clenched tightly.

And Hu Yan thought that his mother knew that he lifted up his skirt on impulse and was touched by Bai Su's leg, and his face turned red immediately.

The mother and daughter looked away as if they had a tacit understanding.

One was worried about being blamed by the mother, and the other was a little guilty for not looking into her daughter's eyes. Both of them felt a little guilty.

For a moment, the atmosphere in the hall was very strange.

Chapter 59 Molesting a Married Woman is Risky

"Caotang is full of sleep in spring, and the sun is getting late outside the window."

White soda made a Hache, and slowly walked out of the courtyard.

"I said Mr. Bai, how did that girl named Chi Chi provoke you? Why did you rape her?"

At this time, a mature woman's voice came from the side.
