Aspirations for Nation and Beauty: Section 30: Attentiveness
Seeing that Altai nodded in agreement, Haibal was secretly delighted, and he continued: "To tell you the truth, I also secretly invited the overlords of the West Tengger Grassland—the Chidi and the Sith Representatives of the Luo Empire came to our meeting, and they have clearly expressed their willingness to support us against the Luobei people and our evil neighbor Li Wufeng to the east. We hope that they can put aside their previous suspicions and work together, and we can even provide appropriate assistance when necessary.”
"Although Li Wufeng signed an agreement with the Luobei people, they have deep grievances. The conflict between the two parties cannot be resolved in a day or two, and it is impossible to cooperate sincerely, let alone in Li Wufeng's north. There is also the nail in Yinchuan Prefecture. There are still many problems in the rule of Northern Luzon, which has restrained him a lot of energy. There is also Yinchuan Prefecture that people will come to the meeting this time. We can talk about it in detail at that time. Let’s talk about cooperation.” Haibal had a confident smile on his face.
Altai sighed secretly, this old guy Haibal is really powerful, he can actually bring in Chidi and Sithrow people, and he can also act as a mediator for the Mott and Sithrow people. This joint force took a lot of thought, but the formation of this force is really as he said, at least it will increase the weight of the five countries in the Western Regions in foreign negotiations. With the support of the Heathrow Empire and Yinchuan Sun Yuanliang, we may not be completely self-reliant.
Thinking of this, Altai finally agreed to Haibal's proposal, nodded and said: "I basically agree with my brother's suggestion, but it's not enough for the two of us to agree, and there are others."
Haybal also nodded and said solemnly: "Yes, this is the first step. When we come down, we will look for them separately. I think so, brother, you should do more work for His Majesty Usun Said I will do the work of His Majesty Gaochang Yongge here, and as for the work of His Majesty Kuqa Sans, I think we should do it together."
Seeing that Altai nodded in agreement, Haibal smiled gratifiedly, stood up and stretched out his arms to hug Altai to express his congratulations, and then went out together hand in hand.
At the morning meeting on the second day, the economic aid plan for the Northern Luzon region proposed by the Imperial Finance Minister Tian Yi, after repeated debates by many ministers, was finally decided by His Majesty the Emperor himself and granted to the entire Northern Luzon region at one time. Supported by development funds of eight million imperial gold coins.
On behalf of the nearly two million people in Northern Luzon, Wufeng expressed his sincere gratitude to His Majesty the Emperor, and at the same time said that the imperial officials in Northern Luzon will definitely not disappoint the trust of His Majesty the Emperor. Efforts should be made to develop the local economy and build Northern Luzon into a powerful barrier for the western frontier of the empire.
In the end, Wufeng proposed that since he had been stationed in the western border of the Western Empire for many years and had gone through many wars, he was quite exhausted physically and mentally. He begged His Majesty the Emperor to allow him to rest in the imperial capital for a period of time, and also hoped that His Majesty the Emperor would approve him to take a vacation, saying I am planning to travel to the Jiangnan area for a period of time, and submitted a memorial. After consulting Ning Yuanwang, He Zhiqiu and other important ministers, His Majesty finally agreed to Wufeng's request, allowing him to rest in the imperial capital for a period of time, and asked him to consider his marriage.
"My lord, I am afraid that your move of retreating into advance will not completely dispel His Majesty's suspicion, not to mention there are many ministers who are dissatisfied with you looking around His Majesty the Emperor." Gu Ji solemnly said There was no smile on his face.
This is Gu Ji's secret residence, which is connected to a nearby Gu family's cultural relics, calligraphy and painting shop. Wufeng chose this place as the secret meeting place for Gu Ji.
"I'm not so naive, so I can reassure them with this trick? His Majesty the Emperor has always been gloomy. If he has a heart, it may be difficult for you to dispel his suspicion for a while. But I can How about it? I also want to go back earlier. The situation in Northern Luzon has just stabilized, the economy still needs to be rebuilt, and there is still a lot to be done in the construction of the army. I used to think that my strength was almost there. Now it seems that the army’s My strength still needs to be strengthened. But do you think I can still go in the current situation? Why don’t I write a letter and ask for a vacation, which would be more generous.” Wufeng shook his head with a wry smile.
"If you just want to go back to the northwest right now, I'm afraid it will only make His Majesty more suspicious. That's fine, you should also take a good rest in the capital and relax yourself. Relaxing is the way of civil and military affairs. This will be a sacrifice soon. It's spring, and there are many activities in the capital. It can be said that there are all kinds of activities. You can enjoy them to your heart's content. As for the Northwest and Northern Luzon, I think there will be no major problems with Xiao Tang and Ling Tianfang in charge, and Su Qin on the side to assist." Gu Ji smiled and comforted Wufeng.
"Oh, that's the only way to go. I really didn't expect that I would be so hated in this court. There are so many people attacking me. It seems that I have to reflect on myself. By the way, I I feel that the intelligence network in our imperial capital is not detailed enough, sometimes many small details can often reflect some big problems, I am going to strengthen the intelligence system in the capital to avoid unnecessary loopholes." Wu Feng said slowly.
"Well, I've noticed this too. Due to our status, Miss Angel and I often only get to know some important affairs in the DPRK. It's our weakness to write small things. When you asked me to pay attention to this aspect yesterday, I knew it. The suggestion you put forward is very good, but these children must be carefully selected and cultivated. After all, they are too young. If they really fall into the hands of others, it will be very troublesome. It is the responsibility of choosing them People should also carefully consider, and must choose a reliable and shrewd person to take the position." Gu Ji has a deep understanding of this aspect.
"Has your lord come back?" A crisp voice sounded outside the door.
"Miss Qin is back. My lord has just come back. She seems to be practicing calligraphy in the orthographic study." A soft voice replied.
"Hey, didn't I tell you a long time ago? Miss Qin and Miss Gu, you can call me Shuangying or Aying, and I'll call you Artie. Didn't we agree?"
The crisp voice outside the door is naturally Qin Shuangying, and the soft voice is of course Charlotte. The girls are of the same age, and Charlotte's personality is also very docile. The three girls soon talked about everything, Of course, a lot of the content of the talk is about Wufeng.
"Oh, I forgot again, I'll call you Shuangying. I thought my lord was not in a good mood when I came back, and I'm practicing calligraphy in the study now."
"Practice calligraphy?! Hey, how can he practice his handwriting? It's like being erected with branches and sticks. It is said that last time he relied on his power to forcefully write an inscription to the Northwest Military Academy, but was criticized by Mr. Mo Lun and his subordinates, and he became angry and asked others to pay for his so-called reputation damage."
"No way? My lord doesn't seem to be that kind of person."
A burst of clear words came from outside the room, which made Wufeng, who was about to splash ink and ink, suddenly lost his interest. What a **** girl, you dare to slander your master's reputation like this, but it was just invited by Mo Lun. How many times have you been a guest, how can it be known to passers-by? It must have been spread on purpose by Mo Lun, and he will have to settle the account with Mo Lun when he returns.
Pushing open the door, Wufeng stood leaning against the door, with a half-smile on his face, "Shuangying, why are you viciously attacking your boss again after nothing?"
"Oh, it's my lord. I'm just telling the whole story of a matter in a matter-of-fact manner. How can I talk about vicious attacks? Don't put a big hat on us, we can't bear it." Qin Shuangying His cheeks were flushed by Wufeng's affectionate address, but he immediately fought back not to be outdone.
"Hmph, you still say no, isn't it a bit too much to wantonly spread the hearsay? When I get back to Qingyang, I will call Morun to confront you face to face." Wufeng pretended to be serious and said.
"Then when are we going back to Qingyang?" Although the capital is nice, it's not his hometown after all. Qin Shuangying felt homesick after only two days in the capital.
Wufeng was also a little depressed, and he couldn't answer directly, so he had to change the topic, "Well, let's see the situation, I heard that there are quite a lot of activities and programs in the capital during the Spring Festival, and if you are interested, let's Also go to see the famous martial arts forum and the dragon and tiger list, and listen to the comments of the so-called martial arts masters, it may be of great benefit to your kung fu, and you can also call the girl of the Gu family."
"Oh? I've also heard about the martial arts and the dragon and tiger list, but I haven't seen it with my own eyes. In the northwest, my master told me that if I have a chance to see it, maybe it will be true. My martial arts have improved." Qin Shuangying really became interested when she heard the words, "Then when shall we go?"
"No hurry, no hurry~IndoMTL.com~Anyway, we will stay in this capital for a while, there are plenty of opportunities. This is a great opportunity to select some soldiers of the Habayashi Army from the top performers in this competition, and we can feast our eyes on it." Wu Feng replied with a smile.
"Okay, when the time comes, let's go together, Artie, can you go too?" Qin Shuangying said happily, and pulled Charlotte who had been silent beside her.
"I, I won't go, I don't have much interest in those fights, I think I'd better prepare meals for you at home." Seeing Wufeng staring at herself with burning eyes, Charlotte's face A faint blush appeared on her face, making her look more charming and charming.
"It's nothing, if you are not interested in these things, we can also go to the clothing districts in several districts of the Eastern District. The various top-quality clothing there are famous in the mainland. Exquisite handicrafts can be seen there, even Charlotte, I’m afraid you may not have finished shopping.” Wufeng speculated and sold them in front of the beauties, showing great hospitality.
"Also, I heard that the empire's annual poetry competition will also be held in the near future. Talented scholars from all over the empire will gather in the Imperial National Art Palace. At that time, you can see the style of talented scholars from all over the world .” Wufeng pretended to be both elegant and popular in front of the beautiful woman.
"Thank you, my lord, for your kindness. Although Charlotte is very yearning, I heard that the items in the clothing area and Temple Street are worth thousands of gold. Even the tickets for the poetry competition are also worth a lot of money." Charlotte said with a face There was a fascinated expression on his face, obviously very tempted by Wufeng's proposal.
"It doesn't matter. Although you, Brother Li, are not rich, the small money is still nothing to worry about." In front of the beauty, Wu Feng was as strong as a cow, and his chest was pounding loudly.
