Comprehensive martial arts: Summon the thunder and lightning general, I will rule the world

Chapter 137 Such a brazen person

"Well, in addition, we must speed up the selection of officials in the Ming Dynasty. The Qing Dynasty needs a large number of officials." After thinking about it, Zhu Houzhao continued to speak to the civil and military officials of the DPRK.

"Yes!" After knowing that Zhu Houzhao was preparing to completely occupy the Qing Dynasty, the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty were full of ambition.

How long? !How long had it been since the Ming Dynasty had experienced large-scale expansion?

Once they attack the Qing Dynasty and Wasi this time, their territory in the Ming Dynasty can be expanded by at least half!

At that time, there will be a large number of official positions waiting for their civilian power to arrange.

Many Central Plains dynasties did not like expansion, mainly because the ruling class believed that expansion could not bring benefits to themselves. Those civil servants often represented the large landowner class.

But in this world, even the civil servants of the Ming Dynasty hope to expand. What's more, most of the current civil servants are Zhu Houzhao's people.

"Your Majesty, the marriage delegation from Xixia has arrived." The young minister of Honglu Temple stood up again at this time and said.

He felt that he was very busy during this period, as people from the Yuan Dynasty, Northern Song Dynasty, Xixia and other countries came one after another.

Even people from Da Qin came here some time ago. He said that he had never had such an opportunity before!
"Princess Xixia?" Zhu Houzhao's eyes flickered slightly, and he chuckled: "Xuan them come in!"

A moment later, a group of Xixia envoys entered the hall, and Zhu Houzhao glanced at them.

As expected, Princess Li Qinglu of Xixia has a lot of similarities with Wang Yuyan, which is influenced by ancestral genes!
However, on the right side behind Li Qinglu, there was an old woman who looked about 70 years old. She looked very old, but Zhu Houzhao felt a strong cultivation level in her body.

Nowadays, all the civil and military officials in the court, combined together, are absolutely impossible to be their opponents.

Half-step land fairy!

The other party has changed his appearance!
Soon, Zhu Houzhao guessed the identity of the other party - Li Canghai, but he did not expect that at this time, Li Canghai would join the wedding team, and the waiter playing the role of Li Qinglu would appear next to Zhu Houzhao.

Behind Li Qinglu was a woman with a slender figure, elegant manners, and a very beautiful face. In terms of appearance, she was no worse than Aju Abi.

Zhu Houzhao quickly guessed the identity of the other party. This was probably the Xiaolei who was later given to Duan Yu by Li Qinglu.

The woman who could be accepted by Duan Yu as his concubine was indeed very good in appearance.

Soon, Zhu Houzhao looked at the armored general again. For a moment, he couldn't even figure out who it was.
After all, Xixia doesn't seem to have any famous generals.

"General Xixia Zhengdong, Helian Tieshu, has met Emperor Ming." Helian Tieshu saluted Zhu Houzhao.

In fact, Helian Tieshu himself was a little confused as to why Li Qinglu was asked to come to the Ming Dynasty to get married. After all, there was a long distance between Xixia and the Ming Dynasty. There were also several countries between the two sides. There is no need to get married.

But this matter was decided by the Crown Princess herself. Helian Tieshu himself was considered Li Qiushui's confidant, so it was naturally impossible for him to raise any objection on this matter.

When the Crown Princess did this, she must have deep meaning. "General Helian Tieshu?" Zhu Houzhao also showed a look of surprise when he heard this.

If Helian Tieshu hadn't suggested it himself, Zhu Houzhao would have almost forgotten the name Helian Tieshu.

Isn't this the general who Xingzilin attacked the Qiao Gang?
However, in this life, Helian Tieshu did not attack Xingzilin. Helian Tieshu did not dare to casually go to the territory of the Northern Song Dynasty to attack the people in the Northern Song Dynasty.

"In the recent period, both Liao and Jin countries have been attacking the Northern Song Dynasty. However, your Xixia not only did not attack the Northern Song Dynasty, but instead sent a betrothal mission to our Ming Dynasty. This makes me very confused." Zhu Houzhao looked at it curiously. Helian Tieshu said softly.

In fact, if possible, Zhu Houzhao would not mind driving a wedge between Dayuan and Shao Min. After all, King Ruyang also had a large number of soldiers, and Shao Min's brother Wang Baobao was also one of Dayuan's top generals.

However, considering Shao Min's recent performance, Zhu Houzhao was very satisfied, especially it made Zhu Houzhao feel what it means to be hot in the ancient road.

At this time, Zhu Houzhao did not intend to trick Shao Min. If there was a chance in the future, after defeating Dayuan, it would not be impossible for him to retain Wang Baobao and King Ruyang.

At this time, Zhu Houzhao also hopes that Xixia can be a little more powerful and delay the Yuan Dynasty for the Ming Dynasty.

Xixia is a small country, but if it can hold off Dayuan for more than half a year, then Zhu Houzhao said that the other party is a major contributor to 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 so as to get a share of the pie. However, considering the Yuan Dynasty in the west, they Xixia did not dare to settle lightly. move.

"Your Majesty the Ming Emperor, this time I came to Xixia to establish a war alliance with the Ming Dynasty! If the Yuan Dynasty invades our Xixia in the future, please ask your Majesty the Emperor Ming to help us in Xixia in terms of marriage. Yuan's army." Helian Tieshu was a reckless man, and at this time, he could only say it directly.

Li Canghai and Li Qinglu also sighed silently in their hearts. This Helian Tieshu is indeed not a good choice for negotiation and envoys!
If it weren't for the fact that Helian Tieshu was Li Qiushui's confidant and could be regarded as a good leader, otherwise it would really not be suitable for Helian Tieshu to be sent as an envoy this time.

"Will you send troops to help contain Dayuan's army when Dayuan attacks Xixia?" Zhu Houzhao knocked on the dragon chair with his fingers, and he pretended to say: "The king of Ruyang in Dayuan is Lord Shaomin, and now he is my Ming Dynasty. Concubine Yuan, during the recent period, I, Daming, have negotiated a considerable business cooperation with Dayuan.

Now Dayuan can be considered an ally of our Ming Dynasty. Xixia wants us to stab Dayuan in the back!This handicap is a bit difficult to handle! "

"Emperor Ming, it would not be a good thing for Ming Dynasty if Dayuan becomes bigger!" Helian Tieshu said quickly.

"I understand this!" Zhu Houzhao nodded slightly and said, "What the couplet means is that Xixia has to pay more!"

Dayuan is your friend, so you have to add money?

I have never seen such a brazen person!
"What does Emperor Ming need?" Helian Tieshu glanced at Li Qinglu first, and when she nodded slightly, he asked Zhu Houzhao.

"Is this true?" 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 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 sending princesses to him! ?
