Many children bring happiness, starting from marrying a wife and starting to dominate the world

Just as the ministers were discussing, Right Minister Zhao Wenhan stood up and said: "Your Highness, even if the Northern King really has the ambition to unify several dynasties, I think we can still have temporary cooperation with him."

Originally, a big shot like Zhao Wenhan should not appear in the East Palace. After all, he was the prime minister. For a prime minister to openly turn to the prince was tantamount to completely ignoring Emperor Xia.

However, in their opinion, Emperor Xia was dying, and even the two ancestors of Dingfeng Mountain and Sifang Mountain could not do anything about it. The position of Emperor Xia would belong to Lu Yi sooner or later, so Zhao Wenhan was not afraid of Emperor Xia's punishment.

After hearing what Zhao Wenhan said, Lu Yi asked curiously: "What does Mr. Zhao mean by this?"

Zhao Wenhan said: "Your Highness, have you ever thought about why Beiguo defeated Dawu easily and had the strength to destroy Dawu, but finally signed an alliance with Dawu?"

"The North could have taken this opportunity to pursue the victory and directly destroy the entire Dawu Dynasty, but they did not do so."

Hearing Zhao Wenhan's words, the ministers in the hall fell into deep thought. Soon one minister said: "Maybe it's because the North Kingdom is not ready yet?"

Zhao Wenhan immediately said: "You are right, Beiguo is indeed not ready."

"It is easy to conquer a country, but it is difficult to sit on it. With the strength of the North Kingdom and the mysterious weapons of the North Kingdom, it may not be difficult to destroy the Dawu Dynasty."

"But what happens after the Dawu Dynasty is destroyed? Is King Bei really capable of managing the entire Dawu Dynasty? Not necessarily."

"And with the current comprehensive strength of the Northern Kingdom, it is difficult to destroy the major dynasties. Emperor Wu and the Northern King are very similar. They both have great ambitions."

"Ever since Emperor Wu came to the throne, he has led Dawu to fight continuously. After so many years of southern and northern wars, it seems that Dawu's territory has become larger and larger. However, there are more and more conflicts within Dawu. The southeastern region of Dawu has broken out. The uprising is the perfect example.”

"If the Northern Kingdom neglects its own governance capabilities, even if the Northern Kingdom occupies the entire Dawu Dynasty, the remnants of Dawu will still find ways to create chaos in the Northern Kingdom."

"The most important point is that if the Northern Kingdom really occupied the Dawu Dynasty, should the Northern Kingdom recruit troops from the areas previously controlled by Dawu?"

"If the Northern Kingdom recruits troops in areas previously controlled by Dawu, then there is a great possibility that the mysterious weapons of the Northern Kingdom will fall into the hands of Dawu's remnants."

"Once there is a problem with the internal governance of the Northern Kingdom, those remnants of the great martial arts will use weapons invented by the Northern Kingdom to attack the Northern Kingdom. In this way, the collapse of the Northern Kingdom will become inevitable."

After hearing Zhao Wenhan's analysis, all the ministers in the hall fell into silence. Lu Yi did not speak as he digested Zhao Wenhan's analysis in his heart.

After a while, Lu Yi asked: "In Mr. Zhao's opinion, what will Beiguo plan to do next?"

Zhao Wenhan said: "If the Northern King wants to unify the major dynasties, what he needs most is time. This time is not the time to destroy the major dynasties, but the time to transform other dynasties into the common people of the Northern Kingdom."

"Now the Northern Kingdom has occupied two counties in Dawu. The governance of these two counties will take a lot of time, so I don't think the Northern Kingdom will make much action for the time being."

"We can send envoys to negotiate with the Northern Kingdom at this time. On the one hand, we will allocate the land north of Qi State to the Northern Kingdom to increase the governance time of the Northern Kingdom. On the other hand, we can tell the Northern Kingdom that Daxia will fully support the Northern Kingdom in the future. What does the Northern Kingdom need? Daxia will provide him with whatever he needs."

this……

Hearing Zhao Wenhan's words, the ministers were a little confused. Daxia would give whatever the Northern Kingdom needed. Wouldn't Daxia in turn become a feudal state of the Northern Kingdom? How does this work?

Just when Lu Yi was about to say something, Zhao Wenhan continued: "The reason why I proposed this is mainly to stabilize the Northern King and prevent him from thinking about going south."

"Think about it, Your Highness, if the Northern King goes south, he will definitely have conflicts with the major families and the landowners. It will take him a long time to deal with this mess."

"If His Highness pretends to be the puppet of the Northern King and helps the Northern King manage the entire Great Xia, not only providing the Northern Kingdom with what the Northern Kingdom needs for its development, but also the Northern King does not have to directly conflict with those big landowners and aristocratic families for the time being, then the Northern King will most likely promise."

"If His Highness has always maintained a weak attitude towards the Northern Kingdom, then in the eyes of the Northern King, Daxia will not pose any threat to him. There is no need for him to directly take action against the big landowners and aristocratic families for the time being. Anyway, His Highness is managing it for him. .”

Hearing this, someone realized the loopholes in Zhao Wenhan's proposal. Lu Yi asked at this time: "Master Zhao, if the Northern King really has the ambition to dominate the world, then in the Northern King's opinion, Daxia is also in his pocket. Sooner or later he will send troops south."

Zhao Wenhan said: "I understand that what I mean is to try to change the target of the Northern King, so that Daxia does not seem to be a threat to the Northern Kingdom, and can also provide a steady stream of benefits to the Northern Kingdom. It is best to give the Northern King an illusion. It gives the illusion that we can finally take over the entire Great Xia without sending troops."

"Your Highness, think about it, if Daxia is completely obedient to the Northern Kingdom, will the Northern King think that since Daxia will provide the resources he needs to develop the Northern Kingdom, and Daxia is so weak, as long as the Northern Kingdom destroys other dynasties, then what will happen to the Northern Kingdom? Will Daxia simply surrender without a fight? In this case, the Northern Kingdom will not have to send troops to Daxia at all."

Lu Yi frowned, and after thinking for a moment, his brows relaxed again, "Gu already understands what Master Zhao means. Master Zhao wants Gu Yin to endure it, and then secretly accumulate strength."

Zhao Wenhan continued: "This is what I mean. If the Northern King agrees to support His Highness, Daxia can also take advantage of the fact that the Northern Kingdom is a vassal state of Daxia and continue to send people to infiltrate the Northern Kingdom and find the production blueprints for the mysterious weapons in the Northern Kingdom. If With the production blueprints of those weapons in Daxia, Daxia may not be weaker than the Northern Kingdom."

Lu Yi suddenly felt that what Zhao Wenhan said made sense. He said with a smile: "Master Zhao alone can rule the world!"

Zhao Wenhan immediately raised his hands and said, "Thank you for the compliment, Your Highness!"

Lu Yi then said: "Then I will send a delegation to the Northern Kingdom to try to divert the attention of the Northern King."

Everyone said in unison: "Your Highness is wise!"

Zhao Wenhan was able to become the prime minister of Daxia. In addition to being a little clever and good at flattery, he also had some IQ.

He saw that if the Northern King wanted to unify the major dynasties, he would first go south to fight for the throne, but his solution was too simple.

What he thought was that since the purpose of the Northern King going south was to obtain Daxia's resources, he would simply let Daxia kneel down and proactively provide the Northern Kingdom with everything the Northern Kingdom needed. In this way, there would be no need for the Northern King to go south for the time being. .

A few days later.

North.

There is a small bridge and flowing water in the yard, and carps come and go in the pond.

Wu Yunwan was sitting alone in the pavilion, looking a little lonely and desolate.

Now there is no one around her in the entire Beiwang Mansion. The maids are all maids from the Beiwang Mansion. She can't find anyone to talk to.

Wu Yunwan sighed slightly.

Since Lu Chen spent one day and two nights with her a few days ago, the guy hasn't come to see her. Wu Yunwan wonders if Lu Chen has forgotten their bet.

At this time, a maid came to Wu Yunwan and made a pot of dragon and phoenix tea for Wu Yunwan. Wu Yunwan asked curiously: "What is your prince doing these days?"

After hearing Wu Yunwan's answer, the maid immediately replied: "Back to the eldest princess, the prince has been handling government affairs in the study these days."

This is not something that cannot be said. After all, Lu Chen is in the study all day long and does not go to any special place.

If Lu Chen went to the arsenal or to a far away place, he might need to keep it a secret.

Hearing the maid's answer, Wu Yunwan couldn't help but wonder, could it be that there were some big events or actions in the North Kingdom recently, which made Lu Chen very busy these days, so busy that he didn't even have time to come to his room?

Just when Wu Yunwan was thinking this, she suddenly heard the maid's voice coming from the door of the courtyard, "See you, Your Majesty!"

The next moment, a familiar voice reached Wu Yunwan's ears, "No courtesy."

Immediately afterwards, the little man's figure appeared at the door of the courtyard. Seeing Lu Chen entering the courtyard, Wu Yunwan instantly gave up her guess.

This guy has so many women, there is no need for him to come to her room every day. It is normal if he doesn't come to her. She is overthinking it.

After Lu Chen entered the courtyard, he glanced at Wu Yunwan who was sitting in the pavilion drinking tea, and asked with a smile: "Are you still used to the eldest princess living there?"

Hearing this, Wu Yunwan said expressionlessly: "Thanks to the prince, I'm quite used to living here."

Lu Chen walked directly into the pavilion and came to the stone table. He sat down on the stone bench next to Wu Yunwan, and then poured himself a cup of tea himself.

After Lu Chen took a sip of tea, Wu Yunwan asked: "Why did the prince come to see me?"

Lu Chen put down the teacup in his hand, turned to look into Wu Yunwan's eyes and asked, "Can't I come to you if I have nothing to do?"

Wu Yunwan said: "Your Majesty is a very busy man. How can he come to me if you have nothing to do?"

At this time, Lu Chen stretched out his hand and hugged Wu Yunwan's waist. Wu Yunwan was about to struggle. After all, this was in the courtyard, not in the room. She didn't want to be seen having sex with this little man. Pull, hug, hug, even if there are only maids from the North Palace in the yard.

However, as soon as Wu Yunwan struggled, she found that the power in her body was blocked again.

this……

Wu Yunwan couldn't believe it.

The last time she came into contact with Lu Chen, it was the same. Her skills were banned in an instant. She thought there was something in the room that caused her skills to be banned. For example, when she took a bath, she smelled the fragrance of flowers. question.

But this time she was in the pavilion. There should be nothing in the pavilion that would affect her body, right?

Could it be tea?

At this time, Wu Yunwan's eyes couldn't help but fall on the tea cup on the stone table. Wu Yunwan thought in her heart that she had been drinking this tea and had been drinking it for the past few days, and it had not caused any harm to her body. Influence.

Not only did it not have any bad effects, it actually helped her practice, and it also had a refreshing effect. How could there be a problem?

The most important thing is that this is not the first time for her to drink this tea. She drank this tea last time when she was on a mission to the North Country, and Lu Chen gave her a lot of it. After she returned, she drank this tea often, after drinking it for so long. Cha didn't see anything wrong with his body.

So it shouldn’t be a problem with tea…

Just when Wu Yunwan was mentally investigating what caused her skills to be banned when she came into contact with Lu Chen, Lu Chen said jokingly: "Is Her Majesty the Empress angry? Blame me, blame me, blame me for being too busy these days. Not seeing you every day makes you feel lonely."

Hearing Lu Chen's words, Wu Yunwan just snorted and said nothing more.

She did feel lonely in the North Palace these days. After all, no one she knew well was around. There were some strange maids in the courtyard, and there were some female guards outside the courtyard, which made her feel like she was locked in a cage. , very uncomfortable.

Lu Chen continued: "If Your Majesty feels that staying in the courtyard is too boring, you can also go out for a walk."

After hearing this, Wu Yunwan said: "Your Majesty, aren't you afraid that I will do something detrimental to the Northern Kingdom?"

Lu Chen said with a smile: "If you want to do it, you can do it."

Wu Yunwan said: "Do you think I am not a threat to you because I can't make waves?"

Lu Chen said: "You can think so too."

Wu Yunwan frowned slightly after hearing Lu Chen's answer. This little man really didn't take him seriously at all.

"One day you will pay for your arrogance."

Wu Yunwan didn't want to say anything more to Lu Chen. Since this little man said that he could go out for a walk, in the following days, he would go to the princess mansion arranged for him by Lu Chen every day, stay with his entourage, and then Come back in the evening.

Isn't he afraid that he will cause trouble in the North Country? He won't regret it when the time comes.

Just when Wu Yunwan was thinking about what to do next after she left Beiwang Mansion, her body was suddenly picked up by Lu Chen. Before Wu Yunwan had time to struggle, Lu Chen hugged him. Sitting on legs.

Lu Chen hugged her soft waist from behind, rested his head on her shoulder, and enjoyed the scent of her hair, seeming particularly obsessed with it.

Wu Yunwan originally planned to struggle, but when she thought that her skills had been banned, she simply gave up and allowed this lustful man to smell all over her body.

After a while, Lu Chen said, "If you feel lonely, I will arrange for someone to live with you in a few days. I believe you two must have a lot in common."

Wu Yunwan asked: "Who is it?"

Lu Chen smiled and said, "You'll know in a few days."

Wu Yunwan said expressionlessly: "It seems that the prince is still worried that I will do something detrimental to the North Kingdom, and plans to arrange for someone to monitor me by my side."

Lu Chen didn't explain too much. He just said lightly: "The person I arranged for you is not from the North."

Wu Yunwan was slightly startled.

Not from the North?

Wu Yunwan fell into deep thought, thinking about what Lu Chen was going to do next.

At this time, Lu Chen hugged Wu Yunwan's soft body, and for a moment he had an idea. With the beauty in his arms, how could he, a vigorous man, not have any thoughts.

Soon Wu Yunwan also noticed something strange about Lu Chen. She immediately began to twist her body and wanted to get up, but Lu Chen's arms tightly hugged her waist, and no matter how hard she struggled, she couldn't get up.

The more Wu Yunwan twisted her body, the more excited Lu Chen became. However, before Lu Chen could take the next step, a female guard entered the courtyard and said, "Your Majesty, Commander Liang is looking for you."

Lu Chen was a little helpless. There were so many things during the day that he couldn't even take a break.

"Ask him to go to the study and wait for me."

Having said this, Lu Chen leaned into Wu Yunwan's ear and said, "Your Majesty, wait for me tonight and let me serve you well."

After the words fell, Lu Chen let go of Wu Yunwan and stood up.

At this time, Wu Yunwan's jade cheeks showed a slight blush. At that moment, her heart was actually aroused by this little man, and she even fell in love with him, and her whole body became restless.

Male lust is indeed poison!

No wonder that when they were in the Mystical Immortal Sect, their master told them not to flirt with men easily, otherwise they might not be able to extricate themselves.

Wu Yunwan felt that she couldn't help herself now. As long as this little man flirted with her casually, she would feel very uncomfortable and wanted to have sex with him.

no! She must restrain herself!

…

Beiwang Mansion, study room.

After Lu Chen arrived at the study, Liang Zong handed the information in his hand to Lu Chen.

"Your Majesty, the Crown Prince secretly sent a mission to the Northern Kingdom."

Hearing this, Lu Chen stopped opening the letter. He raised his head and looked at Liang Zong, "Why did he send the envoy to the North Country?"

Nowadays, although the Northern Kingdom is still a vassal state of Daxia in name only, it is only in name. The Daxia court has no way to control the Northern Kingdom anymore.

He also said that the Northern Kingdom was now in a state where the imperial court could not even mobilize its own troops. Lu Chen did not understand what Lu Yi could do by sending a mission to the Northern Kingdom at this time.

Liang Zong replied: "It is said that it is to win over you, the prince."

Lu Chen thought for a while and did not continue to ask. He then opened the letter in his hand and read it carefully.

After looking at Jin Yiwei's information, Lu Chen instantly understood what was going on.

Nowadays, all the princes who have the right to compete for the throne in Daxia have some kind of contact with certain vassals, but Lu Yi's base is only the scholar-bureaucrats and the conservative officials of the court. His father is secretly obstructing him. Now that there was no way to mobilize the imperial army, Lu Yi felt that his position as prince was unstable and wanted to find foreign aid.

After reading the information in hand, Lu Chen asked: "When will the mission sent by the prince arrive in the North?"

Liang Zong replied: "We will be able to reach Yancheng in three days. Our Jinyiwei spies who delivered the message left the capital together with the prince's envoy. Their speed is not slow." (End of Chapter)
