Three Kingdoms Bandits

Chapter 1071 Preparations for the Big Wedding
"Father, my ministers have humiliated King Wusun and Prince Wusun before. If they have hatred, they should be the first to attack. The Central Plains advocates that peace is the most important thing. To solve the worries of the Western Regions, Wusun Kingdom needs to give a reason." Wusun Hao said.

Because of Aisha, Wu Hao felt the unruly intentions of Wusun Kingdom in advance.

"You'd better get married first, Aisha is a good woman, don't let her down. I have asked Zhuge Liang to choose an auspicious day for the zodiac, and you should prepare it too." Wu Shun said.

The situation in the Western Regions will not change for the time being. If you want to insist that there is, it is just that Shache has moved domestically.

Originally, after the decline of the Shache Kingdom, the land area was pitifully small, and their migration could attract attention, thanks to Wu Hao, the prince of the Central Plains.

On Wusun Guoma's side, there are hidden guards and guards watching, so don't worry about it for now.

To lure the enemy into action, one must give the enemy a reason to act.

The reason for Wu Shun's choice is - the prince's big wedding!
The scene of this wedding must be grand. Anyone who can be invited to watch the ceremony must be invited, even the surrounding dependent countries must send people to come, so as to show the prestige of the great power in the Central Plains.

Not long after Wu Hao retreated, Zhuge Liang, Fazheng, Xu Shu, Pang Tong, Guo Jia, and Jia Xu came together.

"You all know the changes in the Western Regions. Let's talk about it. What do you think?" Wu Shun said.

None of these six people were outsiders, and Wu Shun didn't bother to beat around the bush.

"Your Majesty, the naturalization of the Western Regions has initially achieved results. If we use troops at this time, the countries in the Western Regions may panic." Fazheng said.

Fazheng is also clear about the country's policies and strategies for the Western Regions.The purpose of designing the Dufu Mansion and the King of the Western Regions is to limit the military strength of the countries in the Western Regions, and then use the invasion of the Central Plains culture to make the Western Regions recognize the Central Plains, follow the example of the Central Plains, and thus turn their hearts towards the Central Plains.

This strategy is like boiling frogs in warm water. Don't worry, let alone use weapons, which will make people panic.

From the perspective of long-term benefits, what Fazheng said was not at fault, but he only raised the problem and did not say how to solve it.

"Wusun and other countries in the Western Regions seem unwilling to be naturalized. As for the reason, Master Jia Xu also told you that the current situation is different from before, and the planning process of the Western Regions needs to be accelerated!" Wu Shun said.

The situation has changed, and the previous strategy is no longer suitable for continued use.

"Your Majesty, since some countries do not agree with the Central Plains, let them be forced to do so." Guo Jia said.

There are only interest disputes between countries, but now the Central Plains wants to naturalize the Western Regions and become part of the Shu Kingdom.If you can't be slow, you need to show your muscles.

"Fengxiao, what do you mean?"

Wu Shun asked.

Guo Jia is a very ingenious person, he likes to make suggestions, let him be an official and manage politics, he is very lazy, Wu Shun has nothing to do with him, he can only give him a idle job.

"Your Majesty, please set up the Protectorate of the Western Regions in Dawan, and face Anxi, Guishuang, Northern Huns and even Persia or countries farther outside the region."

Guo Jiadao.

If the Central Plains places the Protectorate of the Western Regions in the Dawan Kingdom, they can obtain the country's fine-bred Dawan horses, and the combat power of the cavalry can be greatly improved.At the same time, it can also send a signal to the outside - within the scope of the Duhufu, it is the sphere of influence of the Central Plains Shu Kingdom, don't be jealous, let alone try to get involved!

Only in this way can the power and arrogance of the Central Plains Empire be reflected!

The previous arrangement of the Protectorate's Mansion was still a little conservative.

"In doing so, in addition to provoking Wusun to fight, our military expenditure will also increase. Is there a problem with the national treasury?" Wu Shun asked Zhuge Liang.

Zhuge Liang can now be said to be the chief executive of the Shu Kingdom, who made him outstanding in overall planning.Among the ministers of the Shu Kingdom, they are outstanding, that is, they are capable people.

Able people should do more work!

"Back to the emperor, the treasury is full, enough for expenses!" Zhuge Liang said.

After years of accumulation, the money and food accumulated by the Kingdom of Shu have become so much that the records are blurred.For this reason, Wu Shun made many decrees to cut taxes and reduce the burden on the people.

However, if the policy is good, the enthusiasm of the people will be high. In some fertile land, people's enthusiasm for land reclamation has soared.

Reminiscent of the problem of low per capita forest coverage in later generations, Wu Shun also specially decreed that no one should wantonly cut down trees or burn forests.

After receiving Zhuge Liang's reply, Wu Shun was in a good mood. Since the national treasury is full, he is not afraid of possible increase in military expenditure.

It's just that if you really do what Guo Jia said, you will probably be targeted, and there may be friction.

Therefore, the westward advance of the Protectorate's Mansion still needs to arrange the subsequent preparations, and the plan must be done first.

"It's feasible to set up the Protectorate's Mansion in Dawan Kingdom. Since Feng Xiao proposed this matter, you can arrange the rest by yourself. When the arrangements are made, I will make an order." Wu Shun said .

"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Guo Jia hurriedly thanked him.

This is the case in the Shu Kingdom. Whoever Wu Shun adopts is often responsible for implementing it.

"Emperor Shengming!"

After finalizing the matter of the Protectorate, no one else sang along.

"Don't make such nonsense, the crown prince brought back the princess of Shache Kingdom, and I also made the crown princess concubine. The Ministry of Rituals has to deal with the prince's wedding! It's best for the subordinate countries to send envoys to congratulate them." Wu Shun said.

The important matter has been decided, and his son's marriage has to be paid close attention.What's more, the prince's big marriage has something to do with the countries of the Western Regions.

Think about it, the princess of the Western Regions became the princess of the Central Plains, and she will be the queen of the Central Plains in the future. With such a card, the people of the Western Regions will be honored.

Naturally, many people in the Western Regions are happy, but there are also a small number of unhappy people.

Wu Shun's purpose is to eliminate this small number of people, otherwise it will be difficult for this area of ​​the Western Regions to have a truly stable life.

"I will definitely personally urge the officials of the Ministry of Rites, and at the same time send people to the subordinate countries to send orders, ordering their lords to send envoys to congratulate the prince!" Zhuge Liang clasped his hands.

"Okay, this matter has a lot to do with it. It must be done well. It must not only achieve the goal, but also not make the crown prince unhappy."

Wu Shun is very concerned about his son.

…………

The Ministry of Rites sent envoys to various places to inform.

An envoy went out from Liaodong, passed through Goguryeo, Baekje, and Samhan, and crossed the strait into the country of Wa, and notified the date of the wedding of the prince of the Central Plains.

Another envoy went all the way south, took a merchant ship, went to Funan Kingdom, and informed the King of Funan to send envoys to watch the ceremony.

Other tribes like the Qiang nationality have their own notifications from the northern state officials, like the grassland tribes, Xianbei, Fuyu, Wuhuan, Dingling and Wushun advocated letting businessmen bring the news.

Whether you come or not is someone else's business.

Of course, if you don't come, you won't give face to the Crown Prince of the Central Plains Empire, and the consequences are obvious.

As for the Western Regions, when the news reached Gao Shun and Cao Cao, it was up to them how to notify them.

All of a sudden, in places where the power of the Central Plains Empire could be spread, there was a rumor that the prince was getting married!
With such a large-scale and wide-ranging discussion, Wu Hao's wedding has attracted worldwide attention before it even started.
