Destiny Only Han

Chapter 813 Liu Ying: For the sake of the country, I can only do my best...

"What are these guys doing?"

"When I was in the country, everyone was gentle, courteous and thrifty. Why is it such a virtue outside?"

"Feng Shui, it must be bad Feng Shui!"

"The so-called oranges grown in Huainan are tangerines, and oranges grown in Huaibei are oranges...it must be like this!"

Liu Yinggeyou was paralyzed on the leather first-class sofa he had handcrafted, waving a just-received telegram in his hand, cursing and forcing Lai Lai.

Opposite him, Zhang Buji maintained the same posture, but his face was full of contempt.

Xu An doesn't know, so he won't make judgments.

But he watched Mrs. Fan and Chong Zhong grow up, so he naturally knew exactly what kind of temperament those two bastards had!
Especially those who are close to ink are black!

So, you can't get rid of it... Zhang Buyi touched the neatly trimmed beard on his chin, and after thinking about it, he still didn't say much.

"why are you laughing?"

"I'm not smiling?"

"I'm the emperor, so it's hard to be wrong?"

"Okay, let me laugh."

Zhang Buyi spread his hands and looked indifferent.

There is a precious treasure against Liu Ying in his family, so he is completely confident about the threat of Liu Ying.

Especially when he has accomplished the task of the emperor's son-in-law very well, and is about to add a grandson or granddaughter to Liu Bang again, there is no taboo, and he belongs to the existence of walking sideways everywhere!

Liu Ying smiled, folded the message in her hand into a paper airplane and threw it at Zhang Buyi: "Look, do you think I should agree to their request?"

Zhang Buyi read it twice, and said with a smile: "This is a good thing, why don't you agree?"

Liu Ying asked: "Why is it a good thing? Tell me."

Zhang Buyi had a wretched face, and raised the message in his hand: "It said above, gray eyes and black hair, extremely beautiful, and a little baby husband, isn't that a good thing?"

Cao thief, right... Liu Ying frowned: "Who asked you this? In your eyes, I am the kind of lustful person who loves money?"

Yes, otherwise... Zhang Busu complained in his heart, but still shook his head: "How can this be said to be lustful and greedy for money? This is a sacrifice for the country, and for the good of the alliance between the two countries, that's why I accepted that... Oh, yes , Cleopatra."

What you said is so reasonable that I can't refute it... Liu Ying nodded invisibly in agreement.

Perhaps, this is the pain of being born in the emperor's family.

So what if the power is all over the world, in the end, don't you still have to sacrifice yourself for the sake of the country and the imperial power?
But Liu Ying was still not reconciled, and secretly made up her mind to fight.

He was going to wait until Cleopatra came to Chang'an to see what she looked like. If it fit his aesthetics, like the No. [-] beauty in the Mediterranean that was boasted in the telegram, then he would naturally do it without hesitation. The country sacrifices itself.

If not, consider her a godsister, give her a random title and raise her in Chang'an, and then punish those three bastards for deceiving the emperor!

It's a pity that it's just the same name, otherwise we can repeat the famous scene of a clean and beautiful woman emerging from the old Beijing chicken roll... Liu Ying shook her head and changed the topic: "Let's not talk about this..."

Zhang Buyi's face was full of excitement: "Don't, there are no outsiders here, what are you going to say if you don't talk about this? Oh, I understand, I heard that you have been squeezed a bit hard recently, do you need me to fix something for you?" Ben Peiyuan's medicinal wine tonic?"

Come on, drag this guy out and stick him to death... Liu Ying gritted her molars, her eyes spit fire: "This is slander, this is slander, I am very good, you are making something out of nothing... Who are you listening to?" said?"

Hehe, guess... Zhang Busu raised his brows:
"I didn't believe it at first, but after you pretended that you didn't go to the Silkworm Kissing Ceremony, I knew it was true!"

"The Silkworm Prosperity Ceremony is presided over by the Empress herself. Empress Taishang and Empress Yan will also be present together. You will definitely be caught by King Yan and Queen Yan, and then you will be interrogated with Empress Taishang three times! Maybe two doctors will be sent to you on the spot. have a look……"

Liu Ying collapsed on the sofa:
"I already have three sons and a daughter, and another one will be born in a few months. Is it my fault that the queen can't give birth to a son?"

"Besides, Lu Yu is not yet 20 years old... the future is long, so what's the use of being anxious?"

Zhang Buyi nodded:

"The truth is this, but think about it, when the queen gives birth to a boy, how old will Liu Qi, the eldest son, be at that time? Besides, King Yan and the Supreme Emperor are the same age, how can he not be in a hurry?"

None of my business!Who told that guy to be a licking dog, insisting on accepting the overlord's order!So, late marriage and late childbearing are not an option... Liu Ying crossed her legs and said, "Why don't you think about my age before you say such a thing? Is it possible that in the eyes of all of you, I am the kind of person who is unlucky?"

Zhang Buyi curled his lips, stood up and stretched his waist: "Well, I've said everything I need to say anyway... let's go home and eat!"

"Where to go, I haven't finished talking yet!" Liu Ying kicked Zhang Buyi from the air: "I asked you before, what do you think of the alliance between Han and Seleucid? Answer me!"

Zhang Buyi frowned: "Your Majesty, I'm just a small servant of the middle school. You should ask Prime Minister Cao about such important matters of the country! As the saying goes, if you are not in your position, you will not seek his own government..."

Just when Liu Ying was about to say something, a full-bodied Peisi accent sounded outside the palace gate.

"Don't plan for nothing! Naigong also wants to hear your opinion..."

Under the sun, Liu Bang, with white beard and hair, walked in swaggeringly with his hands behind his back, beside him was Lu Wan, who also had white beard and hair.

In an instant, not only Zhang Buyi wanted to run, but even Liu Ying wanted to run away...

"Hide, keep hiding!" Lu Wan sat down next to Liu Ying, furious.

"Where did you hide?" Liu Ying said with a smile on her face, "Isn't this just a matter of state affairs to deal with?"

After he finished speaking, he looked up at Liu Bang, who was sitting on the other side of him with a face full of melons: "Father, the silkworm kissing ceremony is over?"

Liu Bang snorted: "Naigong didn't go... A group of old women are chattering, it's annoying to death!"

Al?I knew I was there...Liu Ying was full of regrets, and looked up at Lu Wan: "Uncle Lu accompanied his aunt to the silkworm kissing ceremony, what are you doing in the palace?"

Lu Wan also snorted: "You know it in your heart."

The old man's greatest wish now is to hold a prince's grandson, so that even if he goes underground, he can proudly show off to the ancestors of the Lu family. , also has a part of their Lu family!

"How can this be urgent?" Liu Ying spread her hands: "Besides, have you read the probability table for women of all ages that I gave you, Uncle Lu? So wait for two more years... ..."

"Uncle Lu, you don't want to see... right?"

Just as Lu Wan was about to say something, Liu Bang interrupted him suddenly with a wave of his hand. His eyes were fixed on Zhang Buyi who was trying to reduce his sense of existence: "Let's talk about your affairs later. Now is the time to assess this kid!"

"Your father is Zifang, one of the three heroes I personally recognize, and you are the emperor's son-in-law. You will inevitably have heavier burdens to bear in the future. How can you still be a fool like you used to be?"

Liu Ying nodded approvingly:

"My father is right. I asked you to be a book servant, just to put you in the power center of the empire, to learn more from those old officials, and to hone yourself..."

"With more knowledge, I naturally know what to do!"

"After all, we are a family, you have to help brother..."

Although, but... Zhang Buyi's face was a little moved, and he really wanted to say that he was your brother no matter who he was, but in the end he held back and raised his head, no longer the timid look before .

"In my opinion, an alliance with the Seleucids is possible."

"Nowadays the king of Seleucus is not in the right position. Although all the guards who were present that day were killed, and the news of Antiochus III's death claimed that he was assassinated by the remnants of the Pergamon royal family, this kind of rhetoric will inevitably have people question."

"Especially because he has his eldest brother who is a hostage in Rome."

"The exiled prince returned home to win the throne with the support of the army of another country... This kind of thing happened countless times during the Spring and Autumn and Warring States Periods!"

"So, he can only secure his throne by begging us!"

"It's also the same. He will accept all the conditions that His Majesty asked before, and in order to win His Majesty's trust, he will not hesitate to give his own sister to His Majesty..."

Damn, I helped him with good intentions, he dug a hole to bury me!There is nothing good about the little boy... Liu Ying looked at Lu Wan, whose face was as dark as ink, and hurriedly began to explain: "This is just the diplomatic relationship between the two countries. In order to win the trust of each other, we have to do..."

"Really, I have no interest in orchids!"

"Look, these years, have I ever seen orchids outside the Great Wall by my side? Didn't the stunning orchid dancers that King Qiuci gave me back then be dragged away by my father?"

Liu Bang raised his fist as big as a sandbag: "Don't get involved with Naigong! Naigong is just out of curiosity, to appreciate the exotic singing and dancing... Now those dancers belong to the Royal Grand Theater, and they are not forbidden by anyone!"

Lu Wan sighed softly, although she was a little dissatisfied, but that was all.

After all, she was just a barbarian princess, no matter how beautiful she was, she was just a plaything and could not shake Lu Yu's status in the slightest.

In his mind, the biggest threat to Lu Yu's status at present is actually Dou Yifang, who was born as a court lady. Although her family background is low, she is very lucky!

Well, it's actually pregnancy.

Under Liu Ying's average four-day rest and bathing, this woman is the only one who has conceived again!
Being able to give birth is a very eye-catching bonus item!

Therefore, Lu Wan felt that in order for him to embrace his grandson as soon as possible, and for his precious daughter to become the queen mother one day in the future, it was necessary to let Concubine Yu enter the palace to guide her. After all, how could a man like him Open your mouth?
Liu Bang glanced at Lu Wan and Liu Ying for a while, then nodded with a chuckle: "Yes, what I said is quite insightful, it can be seen that I really put my heart into it on weekdays."

For a moment, Zhang Buyi was flattered.

To be honest, since Liu Le and Ji, his prospective son-in-law has never heard a word of praise from Liu Bang, and every time they meet, he will always be suppressed from various angles...

Therefore, Liu Bang simply praised him a few words, but he was still not used to it...

But Liu Bang didn't realize it, he just turned his head to look at Liu Ying: "What do you think?"

Liu Ying shook her head and then nodded:

"Actually, my first choice was the Macedonians."

"After all, Seleucus is too big. If they are allowed to integrate internal resources, it is not in line with maintaining a local balance of power."

"The important thing is that the Anman Protectorate is too close to Seleucus."

"If the Nichinan Governor's Mansion and Jingdao Governor's Mansion are the present of the Great Han, then the Anman Governor's Mansion is the future of the Great Han. Although the land without water (the Arabian Peninsula) is full of yellow sand and sparsely populated, it is what the empire can achieve in the next hundred years. Guaranteed to dominate the world!"

After all, it is known as the world's oil treasure house, and its oil reserves account for about half of the world's oil reserves!
The important thing is that the geographical location is excellent, close to Asia and Africa, located in the traffic fortress, not only the strategic location is very important, but also a hub of maritime trade.

When Liu Bang closed his eyes and said nothing, and Zhang Buyi was full of thoughts, Liu Ying went on to say:

"But I thought about it later, relying on the Seleucids is not enough to integrate internal resources. After all, their upper-class nobles can be counted as Greek immigrants, while the bottom-level are Persians, Jews, Canaanites and other different ethnic groups. "

"Under this social structure, the Seleucid nobles will definitely not delegate power to those native peoples! What they can trust is actually the earliest group of people who migrated with them from Greece and were unable to return to their hometown because of the collapse of the Alexander Empire. Greeks!"

"So, there is no need to worry that the Seleucids will become our confidantes."

"Not to mention anything else, just because of the uneven distribution of benefits among them, there will be several riots every year..."

"What if we push things a little further?"

As expected of you, insidious and despicable... Zhang Buyi complained in his heart, but gave a thumbs up with reverence on his face.

Liu Bang nodded: "Division and disintegration is indeed a solution."

Liu Ying smiled and said:

"Having said that, contain it when it's time to contain it."

"For example, the city-states of Macedonia and Greece cannot be allowed to be annexed by the Seleucids!"

"Now Wu She is on his way to Seleucus at full speed. At that time, he will preside over a large alliance ceremony there, that is, Seleucus, the Greek city-states, Macedonia, and our Egyptian Governor's Palace, An The Mandu Protectorate will form an alliance, and the person we designate will be the leader of the alliance."

"This alliance will not take the initiative to launch wars, and it will not interfere in their respective internal affairs. The members are equal and help each other, aiming to maintain mutual peace and stability, and jointly promote the prosperity and development of the Eastern Mediterranean region."

"Well, I've already thought of the name, it's called the Eastern Mediterranean Treaty Organization, or East Treaty for short..."

"Egyptian Governor's Mansion?" Lu Wan smiled subtly: "Although I'm old, I'm not dull. I've seen Tutu. Such a big country, with the support of the Romans, how can it be so big?" So easy to get?"

Liu Ying crossed her arms: "Let's wait and see. Well, by the way, Uncle Lu, do you want to make a bet?"
