Chapter 973: The Land of Hexi
Chen Kaizhi could almost imagine that the monarchs of various countries would feel happy at this moment.
He looked at Fang Wucai: "There are many countries in this joint chamber of commerce that have helped each other. I won't worry about the matters in the chamber of commerce. I think that with the uncle here, everything will be no problem."
Fang Wucai nodded: "No, but your Majesty must be careful."
"Be careful?" Chen Kaiyi raised his eyebrows.
Fang Wucai smiled calmly. Although he maintained the etiquette of the monarch and ministers towards Chen Kaizhi, the expression on his face was inevitably full of pride and pretentious expressions.
Chen Kaizhi didn't care about this. He knew very well that his uncle was relying on this to make a living.
Fang Wucai said lightly: "Now countries have established joint chambers of commerce and signed alliances with Da Chen. The essence is that Da Chen is becoming stronger and stronger. There is no way for them, but once they think that Da Chen is weak, they will naturally be disinterested. Therefore, the so-called alliance is false and there is no need to pay attention to it. Your Majesty does not have to take the so-called oath to heart. The most critical issue is the strength of Da Chen."
"Your Majesty." Fang Wucai said lightly: "You must hear that after hearing the rebellion in Luoyang, all countries have made some small moves within the courts of each country, which is enough to prove that all countries still have their own ulterior motives and harbor evil intentions."
Chen Kaizhi nodded and said, "Don't I know that this is the case? The world has been divided for hundreds of years. Over the past few hundred years, all countries have united and all want to maintain a balance of power. Now, although there are many countries that have temporarily joined forces with Da Chen, in fact, they are also worried that Da Chen will grow stronger because of this. The past of Qin destroying the six kingdoms is vivid in my mind. How can I believe that they are really obedient?"
Fang Wucai smiled: "That's what the old minister means."
"So..." Chen Kaizhi smiled at Fang Wu: "When Da Chen is not strong enough, all countries will have ulterior motives. Only when I, Da Chen, are strong enough, will all countries be willing to surrender and have no dissatisfaction. A few days ago, I had sent a letter of nationality to the envoys of Xiliang."
Fang Wucai couldn't help but say, "I don't know what letter of the country it is?"
Chen Kai's way: "The Xiliang National Master used the art of gods and ghosts to deceive the hearts of the people and plotted to murder the former emperor of Xiliang. The world does not tolerate it. I ask Xiliang to immediately take down the Xiliang National Master of Xiliang within one month and escort them to the Yanshenggong Mansion for punishment. I also demand that the Xiliang State immediately remove the troops displayed on the Dachen border, retreat a hundred miles to welcome Prince Qian Sheng back to the court!"
Fang Wucai looked at Chen Kaizhi as if he had seen a ghost, with a look of teasing me.
After the death of Emperor Xiliang, the national teacher was already in the Xiliang Kingdom to cover the sky. Many of the civil and military officials of Xiliang were his disciples, disciples and grandsons. Therefore, the national teacher still controlled the government and established a puppet as the emperor of Xiliang. It is completely unceremonious to say that the de facto emperor of Xiliang Kingdom is this national teacher.
Now, Chen Kaizhi actually wanted Xiliang Kingdom to take the national commander to punish him, and the army retreated a hundred miles away, and asked them to welcome Qian Sheng and return the court. This request was a huge joke in the eyes of Xiliang Kingdom.
Fang Wucai frowned: "Does Your Majesty think the Xiliang Congress agree?"
Chen Kaizhi shook his head: "They will not agree."
Fang Wucai couldn't help laughing: "It turns out that I have the style of my husband. Your Majesty is quite shameless."
Chen Kaizhi glared at him.
Fang Wucai hurriedly saluted: "The old minister's crime of death."
"Forget it." Chen Kaizhi waved his hand and became serious again: "I believe that they will not agree. Next, I will use this reason to expedition to the west. The purpose is nothing more than two. One is to destroy Liang. After destroying Liang, I, Da Chen, do not have to fall into a state of entanglement, and have a stable rear. On the other hand, I, by destroying Liang, will intimidate all countries. They want to watch the show and have ulterior motives. Then... I will let them see how great Da Chen is."
Fang Wucai nodded: "It is a blessing that Your Majesty has such ambition."
Seeing that Fang Wucai was tired, Chen Kaizhi settled Fang Wucai down.
For more than ten consecutive days, everything was going on, and the matters behind were proceeding in an orderly manner. After quelling the rebellion, coupled with the support of the governors led by Liu Aotian, the disarmament was carried out particularly smoothly. The palace draft suddenly made the court and the inside and outside of the country.
It is strange that most local officials are not very satisfied with the new policy, but now the imperial court is quelling the rebellion. At this critical juncture, if they oppose the new policy, they will inevitably be afraid of being considered a gangster of Yang Thief, so many people dare not make noise in this regard.
On the other hand, the beginning of the talent show also made the local officials feel attentive. After all, the concept is one thing. As an official, the most important thing is to climb upward. This talent show is nothing more than an imperial examination. It is not easy to do a local official. On the one hand, it is not easy to cause too much public grievance and criticize the censor. On the other hand, it is best to satisfy the palace. No... not only that, if the beautiful girl selected is better than others, these beautiful girls will pass the purpose of the empress dowager and the emperor themselves. What is this? This is to give your Majesty and the empress dowager a real impression. Perhaps your future will change as a result, and you will rise to the top from an unknown local official.
It is of great importance, and no one is interested in thinking about the new policy now. Let’s just put the new policy, so they have to leave it to the assistants and clerks who are behind to implement it. The most important thing at the moment is obviously the talent show.
At this time, Xiliang Kingdom finally responded.
This time, the Prince of Hexi from Xiliang Kingdom entered the pass and arrived in Luoyang.
Qian Mu, the prince of Hexi, was also the son of the former emperor of Xiliang. However, in Xiliang, there were many rumors that Qian Mu was the illegitimate son of Xiliang's national master. Because Qian Mu's biological mother was originally a singer, he was recommended by the national master to enter the Xiliang Palace. Soon after, he became pregnant.
This man was a few years younger than Qian Sheng. When he entered the pass in person, it was also obvious that Chen Kaizhi's letter of state caused a sensation in the Western Liang court.
Chen Kaizhi summoned all the officials and summoned him in Zhengde Hall.
The prince of Hexi was very young. He entered the palace with his head held high, holding the letter of the Xiliang Kingdom, and his steps were firm.
He went to the hall and glanced at the ministers among the ministers. His emperor Qian Sheng was also there, but he quickly turned his eyes away and looked blind. He immediately bowed to Chen Kai: "Foreign minister Qian Mu, I have seen His Majesty Emperor Chen."
Chen Kaizhi stared at him, stroking the case without saying a word, then slowly said: "What's the matter with your family here?"
This is called asking knowingly.
Qian Mu smiled: "I am on the order of the national magistrate, I will congratulate Your Majesty on his establishment."
Chen Kaizhi laughed, and these were obviously foolish words. Chen Kaizhi immediately said, "Is it related to a demon monk if I am established?"
As aggressive as he was, Qian Mu just smiled: "My Grand Master of Daliang has always admired Your Majesty and has always hoped to be in the Qin and Jin dynasties with Your Majesty. When the former emperor was there, there was a daughter who had long been named the Princess of Dongcheng. If Your Majesty was willing, the Princess of Dongcheng could enter Luoyang, serve Your Majesty, and be Your Majesty's concubine."
Suddenly, the officials on both sides started to talk.
The attitude of Xiliang Kingdom is low enough, and it is not surprising that it is said to be a loss of power and humiliation of the country.
The dignified Princess Chen was willing to take it out and become Chen Kaizhi's concubine. As a princess, even if she didn't establish a queen, it would be considered a disgrace to the country, not to mention that she didn't even want the status of the imperial concubine.
Chen Kaizhi's eyes were light and dark, and then said, "I have already told the world that I will not worry about the monks when I will be able to give a speech in various prefectures."
Qian Mu sighed and said, "In addition, I have another thing. I want to present a good word to the national teacher. I don't know if Your Majesty, do you want to listen to it."
