Under the curtain of night, the gentle water-like moonlight falls on the beautiful pavilions and pavilions in the courtyard, among the strange flowers and grasses.

The attendants all around retreated with a wink, and on the trail paved by Baishi, there were only Mu Kun and Chen Li.

Slightly behind by half a step, Chen Li followed Mu Kun, talking and laughing all the way.

After a pause, Chen Li suddenly said: "Your Majesty's plan is not just to mediate the dispute between the two clans."

"Oh, does the Nine Highness think that there is any follow-up conspiracy in this matter?" Mu Kun stopped and turned his head to look at the handsome youth next to him.

Calling his layout directly a conspiracy, the emperor of Beishuo...If it is not too infamous in some respect, it is a figure worthy of company. Chen Li smiled and said: "The conspiracy cannot be called, it's just that Rong Li oversteps and guesses what your Majesty is thinking."

"Since the Battle of Hangu Pass, the Royal court's strength has been greatly damaged. For more than half a year, many tribal disputes on the grassland have gradually arisen, but the Tianxing Mountain fire broke out. The red land is thousands of miles away, and the livelihood of the people has been lost, which greatly intensified the conflict between the tribes. conflict."

"These excessively energetic and brave fighters, instead of letting them consume them for no reason in the civil chaos, they may even burn the flames of war on the head of the Royal court, then the most convenient way is to find a vent."

"The Great Zhou in the South is extremely rich and feuding. It is the best choice to attract the attention of all the tribes and cavalry of Beishuo. However, there is a Hangu Pass between them, and there are huge mountain ranges blocking them. One expedition south, Beishuo needs all At this moment, the Royal Court calls on all tribes to send troops together and go south to conquer. I am afraid that most of the tribes will hesitate to move forward because of their strength."

"However, with the help of my Nanchen, it would be different. The elite cavalry of Beishuo can reach any port in the south, even deep inland along the river, through the Yunxiaojia express boat transportation."

"This is also the true goal of your Majesty to convene this Nanlan City League." Chen Li stared at Mu Kun and talked freely.

Who could have imagined that after just experiencing the defeat at Hangu Pass, the newly enthroned emperor had already planned the second southern expedition. It is the goal to mediate the dispute between the Tubi and Xuelie tribes and pray for blessings to heaven, but the real goal is to organize this war.

At this time, the prestige of the Mu's Royal court was greatly reduced, and they wanted to raise their arms. All the tribes responded and went south to conquer together, only for fear of insufficient appeal. But the success seen with the naked eye is different. When the Xuelie clan coalition forces bring back abundant jewels and huge wealth this time, will they not be moved?

Mu Kun had no choice but to admire his cleverness. His eyes were shining: "Here's a person like His Royal Highness Jiu who hears the song and knows elegance."

"Yes, this is just the beginning. I want to weaken Southern Dazhou's strength as soon as possible. To lay the foundation for future wars..." Mu Kun said in a deep voice.

I'm afraid that it is not only Da Zhou's forces that need to be weakened, but also those unruly tribes. Chen Li knew everything well, but didn't say anything. Even if they took Nanchen’s warships, the troops sent for conscription, it was impossible for them to be without loss.

Mu Kun's layout can be described as a multitude of tricks. It can not only deplete the strength of the big Zhoufang, but also weaken and draw these tribes, and it can also bring a continuous source of gold and silver to Beishuo.

"The details of the battle at Hangu Pass, I must have heard of His Royal Highness." Mu Kun said sadly.

"It was a frightening battle. My Beishuo cavalry never feared any opponents, but in that battle, he broke down and sank into the sand. Even the father and the emperor who had experienced many battles died, and ten-thousand -There are countless elite cavalrymen in Miles City. They are the strongest soldiers in my Royal Court. They fell into the abyss of death before they even had time to pull out their swords and guns. Such a terrifying way of warfare."

"It's ridiculous that these stupid tribes in the southern region are still fighting to death for a piece of grassland and a water source, but they don't know what the world has become." Mu Kun's eyes were full of solemnity.

"I heard that His Royal Highness Nine once served in the Great Zhou Dynasty. I should be more sober than I am about these changes."

Chen Li smiled bitterly: "Since the newly enthroned emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty established the Gewu Division, the army has undergone tremendous changes over the years, and various new things to assist the military have emerged in endlessly."

Mu Kun sighed: "And this young emperor is only sixteen years old this year. He is younger than me and your emperor brother."

Time is easier. For example, the top three powers in the next world are young people in charge of imperial power. Mu Kun and Chen Xuan, the emperors in their twenties, were already extremely young, but Great Zhou was even better.

"According to this age, he still has at least 40 or 50 years to sit on the throne." Mu Kun laughed out loud, "I don't want to become a prisoner of the Southern Dynasty in my lifetime."

"Da Zhou is the common enemy of the two dynasties of you and me, so we can only defend against powerful enemies together if we join hands." Mu Kun's voice was not loud, but extremely cold. What he pointed out was the cruel reality.

"When the land of Dazhou is calmed down, Beishuo and Nanchen are willing to rule the river." Mu Kun continued.

Seeing that Chen Li beside him was noncommittal, he smiled freely.

"I saw the lord of your country suddenly, the color of heaven and humans, and I was really gaffeed. I originally intended to apologize. Please convey this apology to His Royal Highness." He admires beauty, but never delays business because of beauty.

"If the monarch of your country is still not at ease, I have a sister from a common mother, and you can marry your emperor brother, and the two countries will have a good relationship." Mu Kun said sincerely. Nanchen's assistance is indispensable for this plan to succeed. At this time, he won at any cost.

"Although I adore beautiful women, I don't like being too strong." Mu Kun smiled and stared at the handsome young man.

He really doesn't like force. Anyway, the exchange of benefits always allows people to lie down in bed obediently.

He admired the person in front of him very much, no matter how he talked and behaved, he still had this agility. believe he will see clearly which path is most suitable for them Nanchen.

How can cooperation with the Tubi people compare to the refreshing experience of working directly with the Mushi Royal court?

Chen Li lowered his gaze and said in a low voice: "What your Majesty said is indeed very reasonable. I will discuss it carefully with Brother Emperor."

*****

The banquet did not last long. In the middle of the moon, Mu Kun returned to the sleeping hall to rest, and many forces also left.

Chen Li returned to the Nanchen Pavilion in the south of Yuansetai.

Since they went north, the Tubi people have been very eager to entertain them. They assigned a palace in the south to their brothers to live. Together with an open camp and pier outside the city, they were given soldiers, horses and war ships.

Back in the palace, the attendants were all brought by Nanchen. They stepped forward to serve Chen Li, taking off his clothes outside, changing into a loose and comfortable gown, and came to Chen Xuan's room.

Under the bright light, Chen Xuan was flipping through a thick memorial.

"Is Master Wen sent another news?" Chen Li asked.

Soon after the Tubi tribe settled down, Chen Xuan ordered Wen Mian to take a small boat south to the southern six counties. They are stationed in the far away Beishuo, and the South cannot be without people who preside over the overall situation.

Chen Xuan nodded, her expression gloomy.

Over the past six months or so, the situation in the south has been as expected. The offensive by the soldiers and horses of the Great Zhou has not been fierce, but many counties and counties in the south have fallen one after another and returned to the rule of the Great Zhou.

In fact, after the fall of Jianye City, they had already expected this result.

For the cities and families at the two ends of these first rats, Da Zhou’s attitude was extremely lenient this time, and he did not hold them accountable for the rebellion, but rather comforted them. This allowed more and more waiting counties to choose to open after they came to the city The city surrendered. After more than half a year of work, the front line has returned to the border of the southern six counties.

The six southern counties are different from other counties. These places have been controlled by Nanchen for many years, and their sense of belonging and loyalty to Nanchen is naturally different from other counties. It's just that the people's livelihood in the southern six counties is declining, and it is impossible to sustain the years of war. Now that Wen Mian is dealing with major events in Korea and China, he can't help but feel stretched by his talent.

Chen Li picked up the memorial and read it through. Fortunately, Da Zhoufang was busy pacifying the local family and gathering the follow-up affairs of the war. He had not had time to take action on the six southern counties.

I can only hate that Beishuo was defeated so badly in Hangu Pass. Otherwise, the war between the two countries will continue and it will be a good time for their Nanchen to recuperate.

Chen Xuan stood up holding the table and asked: "After the banquet, did the Beishuo party say anything else?"

Chen Li converged his mind and gave out the suggestion that Mu Kun in the Yuanse platform proposed to transport troops and horses to looting the southern port of Dazhou.

Robbery again!

Chen Xuan sneered, "Does this really treat us as porters and boatmen?"

Chen Li chuckled, "Aren't these people from Beishuo just robbers who are rampant? No matter where they are hit, they don't tidy up the treasures, wealth, and beautiful craftsmen and swept them away."

After being angry, Chen Xuan contemplated, and immediately said: "In this way, apart from the hard work of Nanchen Navy, the Tubi tribe has received very little. With Yan Bo's temperament, how can he be willing to?"

"The minister is about to discuss this matter with the emperor brother. Tonight I want to go to the Tubi clan in secret to ask Yan Bo what he means."

Chen Xuan nodded: "Also."

After a moment of silence, Chen Xuan asked again: "What else did you say?"

Chen Li avoided Chen Xuan's questioning gaze, lowered his head and smiled: "The other...no more."

Returning to her room, Chen Li sat at the table, staring at the shining light.

Until the middle of the night, he suddenly got up, put out the lights, and took advantage of the darkness to walk out of the palace.
