Ghost doctor: Princess please come to the throne

Chapter 199 Controversy between vassal states!

Chapter 199: The Controversy of Dependent Nations!

The two princes on the opposite side heard Ling Xiyue's words, exchanged glances silently, and couldn't help feeling a little nervous.

This is indeed not coercion, this is intimidation!
But it must also be admitted that the words of Empress Tianlin are very reasonable.

Empress Ma rebelled, if it wasn't for the empress to save her, Beiyi might be in charge at this moment. Although Empress Ma is dead now, the Xiangri clan and some other races far away in Qianshuo are still eyeing them.

If you fail to eradicate the major trouble, sooner or later, there will be another disaster.

It was the first time she was able to save them without even asking for anything in return. Before that, she didn't discuss any conditions, and she didn't use this to coerce Beiyi to surrender, so she will definitely help them again, and she has this ability!

As for Xilan, who can say for sure?

Not to mention the Longxiang Dynasty, Xiling Mo is humble, his thoughts are deep, and he is with the Queen Mother and others, so he is not worth entrusting. One.

Murong Chaoge took the look of the two princes into his eyes, smiled charmingly, and his eyes fell deeply on Ling Xiyue, "Okay, if that's the case, then let's open the skylight and speak honestly."

Ling Xiyue curled her lips and raised her hand as a gesture of invitation.

"Seeing that the empress has saved my siblings, I will know the truth." Murong Chaoge smiled beautifully, and the years did not seem to have left too many marks on her face, "Xilan Dynasty promised, If I surrender to Beiyi, I won’t have to pay tribute for five years.”

Ling Xiyue raised her brows lightly, quite ruthlessly.

The imperial grain and national taxes are not handed over, so what is it called a country?
"And invest in opening up the road between Xilan and Beiyi Nanshan, and trade Beiyi at least 200 million gold sheepskins, horse gear and other goods every year." Murong Chaoge made a generalization, and finally emphasized, "If you don't surrender the king, the Beiyi will still be controlled by others." My royal family governs."

It can be said that Xilan's conditions are quite generous!

At a higher level, it is even a cooperation with Beiyi, not a vassal relationship.

"So, what can the Empress give us?" Murong Chaoge looked at Ling Xiyue.

Ling Xiyue chuckled, "Princess, why should you look far away? Besides, if Beiyi belongs to Tianlin, the people of Beiyi, that is, the people of Tianlin, will my palace let my people suffer from hunger and cold?"

Murong Chaoge remained calm, as if he was listening attentively.

"200 million taels of gold..." Ling Xiyue picked up a melon on the table and weighed it in her hand, "There are indeed some good things in this place. The annual transaction volume of 600 million taels of gold, what does the princess think?"

Murong Chaoge winked slightly.

The two princes below immediately looked at each other when they heard the words, "What a big tone!"

On their grasslands, there are really not many things that can be traded with Zhongzhou. Coupled with various restrictions, they can only sell some cattle and wool products, bows and crossbows, medicinal materials, etc. The annual transaction volume of 200 million taels of gold is enough in winter. Feed the lower herdsmen.

If the transaction volume reaches 600 million taels of gold, they will definitely become rich year by year.

But the problem is, 200 million gold is enough, no matter how much more, they don't know what to sell, what to trade with?

Melons, fruits, beef and mutton, mare's milk... These are good things, and the people of Central Continent also like them, but there is no way to transport them in large quantities.

"Why should the empress make big cakes? Since we are talking sincerely, it is better to seek truth from facts." Prince Shan said with a half-smile, "Your empress is a smart person. You should know that I, Beiyi, cannot afford such a large transaction volume."

Ling Xiyue squeezed the cantaloupe in her hand, "As long as you give me the authority, within a year, the sub-buildings of Tianxia Pavilion will be opened in every city and fortress in Beiyi, and they will know what to do with the rest. "

"Tianxia Pavilion?" Prince Shan was startled.

It is the Tianxia Pavilion, which is the number one firm in the world and has continuously created miracles!
"The empress has entrusted this matter to the Tianxia Pavilion. With it as a guarantee, I will rest assured." Another prince nodded, and then changed his words, "But such an obvious loss-making business, please forgive me for speaking bluntly, the empress should There are other conditions."

The Queen does have some means to make Tianxia Pavilion, which has never been involved in the royal business, sell, but if such a large purchase is made, Tianxia Pavilion will definitely lose money. Can the Tianlin treasury make up for the loss?
Tianxia Pavilion is for business!
He doesn't believe that there is no business without profiteers, and it will bear the risks by itself.

"Whether it's a loss or a gain, don't worry about the prince and princess." Ling Xiyue smiled, "The conditions are not considered, I just hope that Beiyi can do a good job as a vassal state, and come to court every year, every year. Confession, and the imperial court will send out Jiedu envoys to stay in Beiyi."

If you don't follow the rules, you can't make a square.

Regardless of other friendships, national affairs should not be confused.

A vassal state is a vassal state, and an ally is an ally. As a vassal state, it is absolutely impossible to confuse it with an allied state. Temporary concessions and confusion will definitely cause trouble!
This is just the first step...

"Of course, the title of Beiyi royal family can be kept." Ling Xiyue gave a kind smile.

The two princes and Murong Chaoge quickly exchanged hesitant glances. They wanted to firmly control Beiyi, just like Yuezhou and Qizhou.

"Empress, you don't want to make me Beiyi pay such a high price with a transaction difference of only a few hundred gold." Murong Chaoge smiled brightly and charmingly, "It seems that the empress is not very with honesty."

"Sister Wang..." Little Beiyi King was sitting on pins and needles beside him, he didn't quite understand the verbal battle of everyone in the tent, but he was slightly anxious at this moment.

Murong Chaoge held down the little guy, looked back, and gave him a peaceful look.

From the bottom of her heart, she is more willing to belong to Tianlin.

Apart from other factors, this little girl is really a reliable person, and even more a dreaded master. No one wants to be an enemy of such a person, but if she returns to Tianlin and Xilan, the difference in treatment between the two is too far, she has to consider carefully.

At this time, Ling Xiyue put down the melon in her hand, got up slowly, walked to the side of the throne, and on the sheepskin map hanging upright, she suddenly said, "I heard that the flow of the Min River has been decreasing year by year. This is not a good phenomenon." .”

"What does empress mean by that?" Prince Shan was confused by this sentence.

Ling Xiyue's slender fingertips followed the winding curve on the map until reaching the lake, and continued, "The setting sun lake is also drying up day by day, and the range of pastures around is shrinking year by year, so Wangcheng has to consider moving to Qianshuo .”

That was a wolf's lair. Even if the Queen Mother died, this problem would not disappear with her death.

"The Empress may wish to speak up if she has something to say." The two princes frowned upon hearing this.

At this time, there is a feeling of being trampled on.

But what Ling Xiyue said is true, this river is like the lifeblood for Beiyi, but if this trend continues, the entire Sunset Lake will disappear in less than ten years.

Without water, the surrounding area will soon become a desert, unable to survive, and can only leave!

Ling Xiyue turned around, "If I say, I have a way to save it."

"what?"

The two princes spoke in unison!

It seems that she didn't understand Ling Xiyue's meaning, or was too surprised.
