Chapter 222 There are no eternal enemies, only eternal interests
Elder, we finally have elders!
It’s the real elder who can worship during the wedding!
Speaking of which, from the beginning to the end, what Chen Xiao hopes most is to have a true elder, that is, the elder who is injured and someone will comfort you and cheer you up. If he succeeds, he will be sincerely happy for you.
Chen Xiao’s heart was touched, but in the end, he could only turn into two words: “Sister…”
"Silly brother..." Li Qiushui hugged Chen Xiao tightly in his arms, and murmured: "I am very happy to have you, a younger brother who is really kind to me, and I am really happy..."
At this time, for this brother and sister who are truly willing to be good to each other, everything is redundant.
Silence, just be silent.
"Cough cough!" After a while, a gentle cough suddenly came from outside the room. Then Huang Shang's voice sounded, saying, "Miss Li, I wonder if I can come in?"
It's Huang Shang!
Chen Xiao and Li Qiushui looked at each other, and then Li Qiushui said softly: "Please come in. I offended you so much before, so I hope Lord Huang will forgive me." Li Qiushui felt very comfortable when he got Chen Xiao's good brother, and even his temper had improved a lot. Otherwise, she would have never been so kind before. Even if the other party was Huang Shang, the great Onmyoji, he might not have sold his face.
"Miss Li, be polite." The door opened gently, Huang Shang and Murong Bo walked in with a smile. Although Li Qiushui was already very old, Huang Shang was not young. They said that they were half a pound of age, and calling him "Miss" was not a big deal.
The few people immediately sat down separately. Huang Shang looked at Li Qiushui with a smile and said slowly: "The two sides have different positions on the same day, which is really a pity. Finally, because of Chen Shaoxia, we can finally sit down and have a good chat, which is rare."
He exposed the incident of Li Qiushui assassinating the emperor in just one sentence. That means, the past is like this. For the sake of Chen Xiao's face, everyone pretended that it had never happened. Anyway, although the emperor was injured, his life was still there. It turned out that the position was different, but it might not be possible at this time.
There has always been no eternal enemy between countries, only eternal interests.
As long as Li Qiushui is willing to have a calm conversation, there may not be no possibility of cooperation. Of course, if you keep your position on the issue, there is nothing to say.
Li Qiushui was originally a very smart person, and Huang Shang couldn't hear the meaning of his words and said with a smile: "Mr. Huang is so serious. I came today, first, to see my stupid brother, and second, to have a good chat with Mr. Huang. Between us, I wonder what good suggestions do Lord Huang have?"
What we talked about this time is really a national event.
Hearing this, even Chen Xiao sat upright, for fear that the two of them would not be able to argue with each other and then fight. The palms and backs of hands were flesh, and it would be the pain that the left hand hit his right hand.
But finally, as the imperial teacher, Huang Shang's mind was naturally extremely broad. He pondered for a moment, and then asked slowly: "Miss Li thinks how powerful is the Western Xia national strength?"
"It's not as good as your Dahua." It's completely meaningless to slap the swollen face and pretend to be fat. Li Qiushui simply said the truth: "Your country's military and generals are strong, and it's also vast. Your Majesty's Emperor has been working hard to govern in recent years, so there is no need to say more about the strong country. Otherwise, how could we do the assassination of Your Majesty?"
She is to be honest. After all, she is also a person in the world. Although she rarely shows up in public, she still has a straightforward temperament among the basic martial arts people.
"Yes, Miss Li is a sensible person." Seeing that Li Qiushui is easy to talk, Huang Shang simply did not beat around the bush: "The geographical location of your country is very sensitive. Whether it is difficult for the Great Liao Dynasty in the north to go down, or whether I plan to go north in the Central Plains, Xixia can be said to be a must-pass place. Is this true?"
"Yeah, that's right." Li Qiushui also had a serious expression when talking about this.
The geographical location of Xixia Kingdom is really too sensitive. It is between the Great Liao and the Great Hua Kingdom. No matter which side intends to send troops, it must pass through her Xixia. Once any side suddenly becomes stronger, the first thing to make a decision is Xixia.
"So," Huang Shang said slowly: "Now, His Majesty of our country has a proposal, intending to show Miss Li. This proposal, Dahua, can be said to have shown the greatest sincerity. Now, I am waiting for Miss Li's opinion." As he said, he took out a document from his arms. It seems that it was finally drafted after studying it with Murong Bo for a long time these days.
"Well, let's take a look." Li Qiushui took the official document and glanced up and down a few times. The more she swept, her face became more and more serious. After reading it all, she let out a long sigh, with a very satisfied smile on her face, and said slowly: "I have indeed felt your sincerity. This is good, but it saves me a lot of worry."
After she finished speaking, she handed the document to Chen Xiao who was sitting aside and said, "Silly brother, you can take a look too."
"Okay." Chen Xiao took the official document and read it back and forth several times. After reading it all, he finally breathed a sigh of relief.
It turns out that the content written in the official document is not only not difficult to do, but it can be said that it is too easy to do.
In summary, it is about what time.
Article 1: Recognize the autonomy of the Xixia Kingdom, and the Great China will also secretly provide various support to the Xixia Kingdom, including manpower and material resources, as well as weapons and other inputs.
The second article is to require that once Dahua starts war with Mongolia or Daliao, Xixia will instead help Dahua.
Article 3: Some officials can be sent to the Xixia Kingdom to assist in participating in politics. On the political premise of not interfering with the Xixia Kingdom, some opinions that are beneficial to the national economy and people's livelihood can be put forward.
Article 4: The two countries are willing to make friends forever. Xixia only needs to pay tribute to Dahua ten kilograms of gold and hundreds of horses every year.
This condition is not only not harsh, it is simply loose to an infinite degree. Even if you ask the Xixia Kingdom to pay tribute, it is just a matter of meaning. Ten kilograms of gold and hundreds of horses, can this be a big deal for a country?
However, Dahua's policy appears to be all good, but Chen Xiao knows that the true meaning is among these benefits.
The first article is to support Xixia. Over time, Xixia will naturally develop dependence. I won’t talk about the second article, but especially the third article, assisting in politics. After the Dahua officials have established prestige there for a long time, the relationship between the two countries will become better and better. It is difficult to guarantee that Xixia will become the one-country, two-system administrative region of Dahua.
Chen Xiao felt clearly in his heart, but he could not say that - he would not interfere with those things in later generations, yes.
