Mo Xian, who was originally excitedly looking forward to Nalan Xue's arrival, immediately became depressed after receiving Nalan Xue's letter. He also ordered someone to stop cleaning half of the room.

Seeing his sister's appearance, Mo Zhang couldn't help but laugh. Although he also wanted to see his master, he did not have the same "expectations" as Mo Xian. The friendship between gentlemen is as light as water. This sentence,

It is quite suitable for the relationship between him and Nalan Xue. When nothing happens, there is no contact. When something happens, a letter or a token can be enough to make a promise.

"Why? Tell me, why is this?! I looked forward to the stars and the moon. I finally waited for the alliance meeting to be held in Shang Kingdom, and finally got to see my master. But in the end, she didn't come again! That Nalan Shu

, what’s so good about it! Apart from looks

You are a little bit similar to the master, but where else can you compare with the master? Master, master, how can you not come? Shang Fusu and I have already said hello and are waiting for you to come.

I'll take you on a night tour of July City and have a great time!"

Mo Xian, who was overly depressed, grabbed her brother's sleeve and shook it wildly. She really missed Nalan Xue so much. It must have been four years since they last met.

?Last time, she had already finished researching all the interesting gadgets she told herself. There was nothing left to research. If she didn’t come to Shang Kingdom, could it be possible that she would be forced to go to Yucheng in Mo Kingdom?

Do you want to beg her?

"If you really miss the master, just write her a letter and let her know."

Mo Zheng struggled to free his arm from Mo Xian's "torture", and took advantage of the situation. He took half a step back, keeping a safe distance from her, "If, Master, I miss you too, or if you give me

If you are moved, you will naturally agree and let you go to Yucheng to find her. July City is away from Yucheng... If you ride a fast horse and drive all night, it will only take three or four days, right?"

"That's so embarrassing..."

Mo Xian curled up the corners of his lips and said "I'm sorry". In fact, he was already a little moved. That's right. Yucheng in July City is not too far away. I'll ride a fast horse there.

That was three or four days, and then she played with Nalan Xue for two days, and then

Returning to July City, at most, half a month is enough. The world is so peaceful now, even if she is absent from July City for half a month, nothing will happen, right? Besides, even if she gets a refund of 10,000 yuan,

Let’s talk step by step. If something really happened, why don’t you wait here?

"I see. You are not embarrassed at all. You just wish you could grow a pair of kite wings right now, fly straight to Yucheng, and stick to your master's side and never come back!"

Don't wait for the venomous words to hurt your sister, then twist yourself and walk downstairs.

There are still two days left for the envoy team from Mo Country to arrive at July City. There should be about the same number from Feng Country. Although Nalan Xue did not come in person this time, she was careful in her letter.

He told himself to deal with it carefully and protect Nalan Shu's safety.

"Hmph! Don't wait! You wait for me!"

Stomping his feet in annoyance, Mo Xian grabbed a golden step from his head and shook it down. He used his wrist and threw it towards Mo Deng who was going downstairs. "Look, I have gone to Yucheng to complain to the master.

Tell me you are bullying me!"

"You see, the master believes in you."

Mo Zheng raised his hand without looking back, easily caught the golden step wave that Mo Xian threw at him, and then threw it with his backhand.

I saw that Jin Bu Yao flew towards Mo Xian at a faster speed than before. Then, it brushed past her cheek and nailed the wood behind her with a "duh" sound.

On top of the pillar!

"Don't wait! It's your uncle! Do you want to disfigure me?"

Mo Deng was startled. When he regained his composure, Mo Xian immediately became furious. While scolding, he wanted to teach his brother a lesson. However, he took a step forward and almost fell off in pain.

With tears streaming down my face, I turned around and saw,

The golden walking stick that Mo waiting had thrown back before had been smashed into the wooden pillar with a small strand of her own hair! Either she had to work hard to pull out the golden walking swing.

Or, you have to cut off this small strand of your hair!

"Well, okay, I'll write a letter back to Zhaoyang City in a moment and tell my uncle to say hello to him."

Mo Zi was not annoyed at all with his sister. He still looked calm and indifferent as ever, he agreed softly and continued walking downstairs.

…

After receiving Jiang Yue's "pointers" from Su Ling, Ling Yue froze in place for a while, then patted Su Ling on the shoulder with joy and laughed happily.

"You were also infected by His Highness and your brain was damaged?"

Su Ling was already troubled by Jiang Yue. Now, when he saw Ling Yue like this again, the anger that had been suppressed in his heart suddenly became uncontrollable. He stretched out his hand and slapped Ling Yue on the forehead.

Go down.

Jiang Yue is the master, and he doesn't dare to take action. Why can't he give this brat like Ling Yue a beating to vent his anger?

He deserves to be beaten to death! He deserves to be beaten to death!

"Ouch! You, you barbaric thing! How dare you speak ill of His Highness! And you dare to hit me!"

Ling Yue is a thin man with a sharp mouth and monkey cheeks. When he was beaten like this by Su Ling, his first reaction was to hold his head, squat down, and start to cry, "Your Highness! I can't live this life! This barbarian Su Ling is going to kill someone."

!”

"If you really want to die, I absolutely guarantee that I can satisfy you."

Seeing him like this, Su Ling couldn't help but laugh. All the anger in his belly was gone in an instant. He stretched out his hand and picked it up for him. He said to him half threatening and half joking, "Shut up."

, what I’m best at, this, you know.”

"Ahem, ahem, um, brother, we are also the same father after all, right? You can't ruin your reputation for being generous with the common knowledge of a younger brother like me, right?"

Zero Yue changed from her previous "romantic" appearance, rolled her eyes, and showed a flattering look. She carefully nudged Su Ling's side, then started to stretch out her hand to tap his shoulder. "

What did you ask me just now? I didn’t hear clearly. Ask again, ask again..."

"What were you giggling about just now?"

Facing this younger brother raised by his father, Su Ling has never been able to show his temper seriously. It's not that he is generous, but... this guy is really a genius at deceiving people! No matter how much he does,

If you are so angry, just look at him pretending to be pitiful and listen to him say a few flattering words, you will never be angry again!

"Did I not giggle just now?"

While Ling Yue continued to beat Su Ling's shoulders, she explained to him why she was smiling happily just now, "Oh, you are asking me why I am laughing, right? I am laughing because I think His Highness is really smart.

With these few words, all the things that were embarrassing me were solved at once!"

"All solved? What do you mean?"

Su Ling raised his eyebrows slightly, stretched out his hand, and brought Ling Yue in front of him. He asked him to explain to him what was going on.

"Last year, there was a war. Many people were trying to get a higher price for food, so they sold all the food. Now, every household does not have much food. There are still two months until the autumn harvest. People

We have been eating for a year, and even if there is food left at home, it is probably only enough to last until new food comes. Many families don’t even have enough to last until new food comes. How can they be willing to sell it?"

Seeing that Su Ling was serious about asking and not being polite to him, Ling Yue clasped his fingers and began to tell him about the "Xiao Jiujiu" in this, "If you want to buy food now, you can only buy it from those who have food in hand."

The price of the harvest is more than 30% higher than when the grain first came down... His Highness asked me to find the princess and discuss with her the price of the grain after the harvest.

Purchase, and also pay money to the people first, and when the food comes down, use the food to repay... People like the princess, who think about the people, are naturally very happy, how can they not help me? Do you think?

Ah, brother, just by putting money down for two months, I can definitely receive low-priced and large-quantity food... Tsk, tell me, how can I be unhappy!"

"Listening to what you said, it does make some sense."

After understanding what Ling Yue meant, Su Ling also nodded gently, admiring Jiang Yue's intelligence. The master is the master. Sure enough, his quick thinking is beyond the comparison of rough guys like them. "People of Yucheng, take this

This money can be used to purchase household supplies. Many families who do not have enough food can also buy some food to supplement their income. During the food production season,

There is no need to worry about abundant food supplies and merchants lowering prices... Don't tell me! There is no reason why the princess shouldn't respond to such a big favor given to her! It's just... I don't understand. Your Highness asked you to do it.

What's the point of a chess club like that? It can't make a lot of money, but it's being used by some kids for free...what's the point of it!"

"It's so obvious. Your Highness misses the princess!"

Seeing that his eldest brother looked clueless, Ling Yue did not dare to talk about him. When a scholar meets a soldier, there is always a reason that cannot be explained clearly. He is a scholar and his eldest brother is a soldier. Well, there is no way he can be with him.

The eldest brother took advantage of it, "When the time comes, Your Highness will be free."

When I have free time, I change my identity and go to the chess club to teach the children how to play chess. By the way, I can also meet the princess, and the two of them develop a relationship... Well, I don't know, the princess will give up on that.

What kind of useless snacks did the fifth prince elope with the master when he didn’t want them?"

"Nonsense! The princess is His Highness's princess! What does elopement mean?"

Su Ling understood the meaning, but felt that what Ling Yue said was inappropriate. He stretched out his hand and slapped him on the back of the head again, "If His Highness listens to this, let's see if he doesn't expose your skin!"

"Ahem, slip of the tongue, slip of the tongue! Well, um, I'm going to do something for His Highness first, see you later!"

Hearing what Su Ling said, Ling Yue's face suddenly fell. She hurriedly said goodbye to him, rubbed oil on her soles, and slipped away!

…

Mo State, Zhaoyang City.

Sima Qing sat on the dragon chair in the Imperial Study Room with a headache. He looked at the pile of memorials in front of him and didn't know how to start.

Nalanxue followed Sima Shang to the fiefdom. Nalanshu first asked for leave and then went to the Shang Kingdom to attend the alliance meeting. Sima Yu was not there either... He was used to people coming up with ideas and discussions, but now he had no one to deal with these people. This is not a major national matter that needs to be decided urgently, so how can we not be helpless?

After some thought, Sima Qing decided to call his two other sons, the third prince Sima Yue and the sixth prince Sima Ling, who had been participating in the government for a long time, to discuss these matters with him.

When they heard that their father had summoned them to go to the royal study to discuss matters, the two brothers couldn't help being flattered. They hurriedly changed their clothes and hurriedly followed the chief eunuch.

"Princess Nalan built the new city of Yucheng, and many people want to imitate it. Yue'er, Ling'er, what do you two think about this matter?"

Sima Qing picked up the memorial volume closest to him on the desk. Opening it, he saw the request for instructions handed over by the Minister of Kunbu who was in charge of the assessment of the city lords of each city.

"My son thinks that what Princess Nalan did is to outshine the Lord."

Sima Yue is not a generous person. Especially, in the previous "chess game marriage proposal", he was defeated miserably by Nalan Xue, Nalan Xue, and "lost" to Sima Shang, a well-known waste. This made He felt very humiliated. In his heart, he naturally resented her. Now that he had the opportunity to speak ill of her, there was no reason to let it go. "Building cities and pools is under the jurisdiction of the emperor." , What qualifications does she, a little princess, have to build a city privately without asking for permission? How is this any different from surrounding a mountain to form a stronghold and gathering troops to rebel?"

"My son thinks that what the princess did is to benefit the people, and it is not what the third brother said."

Hearing Sima Yue belittle and slander Nalan Xue in this way, Sima Ling couldn't help but frown, turned his head, and glanced at him. He couldn't understand what he had told himself before that he would not marry anyone other than Princess Nalan. How could the third brother, who had no choice but to live, become like this all of a sudden, "When the princess marries the fifth brother as the princess, she will be a member of the royal family of our country. In the future, in the genealogy, On the jade plate, even on the epitaph, they are all from my Sima family! When she built the city, she also built it for my Sima family, and for my fifth brother’s fiefdom! Is it possible that she, a woman, could still conspire to rebel and claim her title? Is the king seeking hegemony?"

"My son thought..."

Hearing that his younger brother Sima Ling was contradicting him, Sima Yue couldn't help but get angry. Just as he was about to continue speaking, Sima Qing glared at him angrily and he did not dare to say any more.

"Jealous of talents and talents! I really misjudged you!"

Sima Qing was so angry that he reached out to pick up the paperweight on the table and threw it towards Sima Yue, "Go away! From tomorrow on, you no longer have to come to court to listen to politics!"

"Father, third brother is just confused for a moment, not intentional!"

Hearing that Sima Qing was going to punish Sima Yue, Sima Ling hurriedly knelt down and begged for mercy. After all, that was his brother from the same mother. If he was really beheaded by his father in a rage, how could he explain to his mother and concubine?

"You should go out too."

Glancing at Sima Ling, Sima Qing was no longer in the mood to discuss politics with others. He waved his hand and said, "Look at your sister, look at you, you are both born from the same mother and raised by the same mother. How could it be so different from what my mother taught me!"

After driving away his two sons, Sima Qing leaned on the dragon chair and closed his eyes to rest.

Although Sima Yue's words were a bit exaggerated, there were still some things that he had to guard against...

If these three brothers and sisters in Nalan Mansion can get back together with Sima Yu, and can help Sima Yu in the future, that will be a great thing, but if not... then, he has to make plans as soon as possible.

…

He had worked hard for Mo Country for half his life and gave up many things, but in this case, he wanted to be selfish for a moment and make his beloved son the crown prince of Mo Country.

…

Yucheng.

A strange guest was welcomed into the city lord's mansion. This man had a sharp mouth and monkey cheeks. At first glance, one would think that he would be a shrewd businessman.

Nalan Xue also set the same rules for the City Lord's Mansion in Yucheng as the Nalan Mansion in Zhaoyang City. Anyone, no matter who they are, will receive an excellent reception as long as they arrive at the door of this mansion, no matter what time it is.

No matter what their status is, everyone is treated equally, so today, when this businessman came to see Nalan Xue, there was no obstacle at all and he was ushered in by the housekeeper.

"Princess, there is a businessman outside who calls himself Ling Yue, and he wants to see him."

Yan Niang gently knocked on the door of the room and reported to Nalan Xue.

"Well, let's ask him to rest in the main hall first. We'll have some good tea waiting for him. I'll apply the medicine to Shang and I'll come right away."

Nalan Xue agreed and continued to lower her head and applied medicine to Sima Shang's arms. That day, he followed Feng Duan and ran to the mountain to find queen honey for her. He was stung by a wasp and his arms were swollen to his shoulders, which frightened her.

Not good enough, even

Ye called Jing Qi and asked him to go to Zhaoyang City quickly and ask for medicine from the old man Mo Yi. After applying it for two days, he felt a little better. I guess he will have to wait until he is completely healed.

, it will take another three to five days.

"You go to meet the guests first, Xue'er. It's okay to let Feng Duan apply the medicine on me."

Sima Shang grimaced in pain, and was afraid that Nalan Xue would look down on him, so he bit his lip and refused to make a sound. At this time, when he heard that a guest was coming to see him, he hurriedly mentioned it to her and asked her

Go and do business first. Give yourself

I had a chance to catch my breath and take a breather. This heart-wrenching pain, "Since the people have come to our house, they should ask for something. If we are negligent, it should make people think that we are perfunctory."

"

"If you don't do it right now, it's almost done. I'll apply it for you right away."

After glancing at Feng Duan, Nalan Xue rejected Sima Shang's "proposal". Not to mention whether Feng Duan was careful enough, he went to the mountain with Sima Shang and left Sima Shang alone.

Being stung by a wasp, there was nothing wrong with him. It just made her dislike him. Whose servant would not protect his master with all his strength? How could he be so irresponsible!

"Okay. Okay."

Even though he gasped in pain, Sima Shang had no choice but to accept his fate. It was extremely difficult to change Nalan Xue's decision. Instead of arguing with her and suffering more sins, it would be better to just follow her wishes and let her finish the trouble as soon as possible.

, "Then, hurry up, I, I can bear it!"

After carefully giving Sima Shang some good medicine and bandaging it up, Nalan Xue walked out of the house, quickened her pace, and headed towards the main hall.

No city can be separated from merchants. In a city where merchants thrive, prices will be stable and people's daily needs will be easily met. This is a truth that many ancient rulers did not understand, but Nalan Xue

How can people from the future not understand?

After she became the prime minister of Mo State, she began to encourage business. Because of her actions, Mo State gradually became rich and powerful, and eventually became the leader of the Three Kingdoms like it is now.

"Your distinguished guest has been waiting for a long time."

Under the guidance of Yan Niang, Nalan Xue entered the main hall of the city lord's mansion and met Liang Yue who had come to pay her respects. Because she was late, it was inevitable that she would be neglectful, so she took the lead and apologized, "There are some private matters in the backyard.

I'm halfway through it, so I've wasted some time, so I hope you'll forgive me."

"I'm just an ordinary businessman. If I go elsewhere, I'm afraid I won't even be able to enter the gate of the city lord's palace. The princess is willing to show her favor and agree to meet me. It's a great honor for me. How dare I delay the county?

What about the Lord’s private affairs?”

Ling Yue has been in business for many years and has already developed a sharp mouth. Now when he meets a smart woman who is praised by his Royal Highness, how dare he not be careful? To put it bluntly, I may not be sure, this person will be the best in the future.

She has truly become her own princess. If for a moment, because she failed to be careful enough, she fell into her hands... With the temperament of His Highness... I am afraid that I will be unlucky for the rest of my life, which may not be enough!

After taking a moment to look at Ling Yue in front of her, Nalan Xue smiled lightly, stretched out her hand to make a gesture of invitation, indicating that he was not polite, "The hometown of our distinguished guest is in the south, right?"

"The princess has a sharp eye. She only took one look at me and guessed that I came from the south."

Ling Yue was slightly startled, sighing secretly that Nalan Xue was not easy to deal with, but her face was calm, and she sat down on the chair casually, "Maybe, I wrote '

Is it the word "nan"?"

"Your distinguished guest is really good at joking, how can anyone have words written on their face? In the past, this princess also went to the south and had several friends there. Looking at the distinguished guest's speech and behavior today,

It was quite similar to them, so I made a casual guess, and unexpectedly, I happened to guess it right."

Seeing that Ling Yue was getting nervous because of her teasing, Nalan Xue couldn't help but smile, picked up the tea bowl in front of her, and took a sip of the tea in it, "Enough chatter, what's the purpose of your distinguished guest coming here this time?

"

"I came here this time to discuss a business deal with the princess that will benefit the country and the people."

When Ling Yue heard that Nalan Xue was asking her about business, she quickly stood up and bowed to her respectfully, "I hope the princess can fulfill her wish."

"I have no business under my princess' name. Is there any misunderstanding among your distinguished guests?"

Nalan Xue was slightly startled, but soon returned to normal. Although the Lingtian secret guards under her command, the Mo family, Jingrui family and Feng family were all running the business she assigned, they were all doing it secretly.

Yu Li, no one should know that it is related to her. This person who calls himself Ling Yue comes here and says he wants to discuss business with her. It should be...not related to them!

That's all, let's explore his tone first and listen to his side of the story before dealing with it. If it's really a business that benefits the country and the people, there's nothing wrong with having a talk with him. Nalan Xue thought this way.

Ling Yue, who had been prepared for a long time, saw that Nalan Xue was already somewhat persuaded by him, so she hurriedly followed Jiang Yue's instructions and expressed her thoughts exactly as they were, and said that this could be implemented in Yucheng for a long time.

Whether the grain is sold or not is entirely decided by the people who grow the grain. It is up to them to sell more or less.

Grain merchants take advantage of the abundant grain harvest to lower prices, and then use new grain to sell the unharvested grain at high prices during times of shortage. This is a scenario that happens in every city, and grain merchants use exactly this method.

This is a way to make huge profits. Working for two seasons every year, you can earn as much as a businessman next to you for a year. This is a situation that can happen in any era. However, in the country of Mo, where almost everyone grows food, it is extremely serious.

Many unscrupulous grain dealers will even occupy large areas of grain fields before the new grain comes. Then, when the people have harvested the new grain, they will join forces to squeeze the price of grain down.

The common people had no fields to dry their grains. They could only bear the pain and sell the grains at low prices. Otherwise, after the entire rainy season, all the grains would rot in their homes, which would be the same as not harvesting any grains.

However, the method of harvesting grain proposed by Ling Yue is relatively fair and the price is reasonable. Especially for the people of Yucheng now, it is beneficial and harmless.

"The grain merchants nearby are all eager to lower the price of grain so that it doesn't cost them any money, but you are quite interesting."

Nalan Xue thought about it for a while and felt that what Zero Moon mentioned actually did not harm the people at all, but only reduced his own income. This is very different from ordinary grain merchants, "I don't know.

Can you please tell me why you have to do it this way...it will cost you money and reduce your profits?"

"To be honest, princess, I also work for others. I will obey the master's instructions. How can I dare to ask questions casually and make my master unhappy?"

Before Zero Month came, he had already thought of his words. At this time, when Nalan Xue asked him, he did not panic or get embarrassed, "My master is also a businessman. A businessman is profit-oriented. Of course, he cannot make money at a loss."

business... coming down

Before, I got the same instructions from the master. This instruction was to ask for favors from the princess, and it was also a little reward for the food harvest... After a while, I told the princess, I hope, the princess

Lord, please don’t be angry and blame..."

"Just tell me and listen. If it's not an excessive request, I can make the decision and agree to it."

There is an old saying that you should be attentive to everything. Originally, Nalan Xue was still wondering why she had given up huge profits in these zero months to give herself such a gift that was beneficial to people's livelihood. At this time, listen to

After realizing that he had something to ask for, I felt that it was a little more reasonable.

"Lingyue's master said that he hopes the princess can grant him a larger house near the city to run a chess club."

Ling Yue paused for a moment, as if preparing her words. She peeked at Nalan Xue's reaction and saw that she didn't show any displeasure before continuing, "Of course, it's not in vain.

Children in government schools who like to play chess can go in and have fun without spending money. Tea and snacks can be provided by the chess club. If there are children who are talented in playing chess, they can also stay in the chess club in the future and do some work.

An employee of the chess club."

"Although a larger house may be worth some money, compared with what your master promised, it is not worth mentioning."

Nalan Xue raised her eyebrows slightly, smiled and mentioned to Ling Yue that this was all for her own benefit, and there was no disadvantage at all... How could she feel that it was so baseless? What if, this Ling Yue's

The master is indeed a profit-seeking businessman as he said. Then, what does he achieve by promising these small or even no-profit things?

The bustling world is all about profit, and the bustling world is all about profit. She doesn't believe there is any businessman who only wants to do good things, regardless of profit!

"Sure enough, nothing can escape the eyes of the princess. My master, it is true that he did not seek profit from this chess club."

She had long expected that Nalan Xue would doubt her own motives, so Ling Yue also prepared this statement in advance, "My master once had an old friend who loved to play chess. Unfortunately, in the past, he died

Under the tyrannical rule of Emperor Yiyi... The princess used iron hoofs to bring down Yiguo. Although it was an unintentional act, it also avenged the grievances of my master's old friend. My master often

I kept this incident in my heart, but I could never retaliate. A few months ago, I heard that the princess was building a new city in Yucheng, so I thought that the time was right. I specially asked me to prepare some money and come to join in the fun.

It can be regarded as a small effort for the princess, and it solves one of his worries... By the way, I also set up a chess club to give his old friend some fame and leave it to future generations..."

"Since your Majesty has expressed your wishes, I, the Princess, will be more respectful than obey your orders."

When it came to this, Nalan Xue stopped making excuses, although she just accepted it. Some were not so gentlemanly, but what does it matter? As long as it is beneficial to the people and the country of Mo, this kind of demeanor

It doesn’t matter whether you want it or not. It doesn’t matter!

Zhou Yu beat Huang Gai, one of them was willing to be beaten, and the other was willing to be beaten. If others came forward and asked for a beating, she was just a helper. Why not do it?

Besides, she has never claimed to be a gentleman. Just as she said in the past when she was joking with Nalan Duan, it is difficult to raise a woman and a villain in the world. Daddy, you raised a woman like me.

She is also a villainous girl, but she has lost a lot of money. To achieve her goal, she will do whatever it takes. I can definitely do it!

She clearly remembered that at that time, Nalan Duan, her father, told her that if it was for the welfare of the people, it would not be shameful to be reviled for thousands of years.

She kept this sentence in mind from beginning to end.

…

Shang Kingdom, July City.

On the day when Mo's envoys arrived, Mo went to the house where he was staying and met with Nalan Shu.

Because it was not Nalan Xue who came, Mo Xian, who was fully expecting to have a night chat with her, was too lazy to come to see Nalan Shu. He only asked his brother not to wait, and brought a symbolic gift to Nalan Shu.

If you send it to me, it will be considered as "doing your best".

I had received a letter from Nalan Xue before and knew that someone would come to see him in July City. Therefore, when he saw Mo et al., he came to greet me politely. Nalan Xue didn't think there was anything strange and just followed the usual attitude.

As a matter of etiquette, I just chatted with him for a few words and that was all.

The first day of the alliance went smoothly. The envoys from the three countries gathered together and talked about their thoughts for the next year on the table, drank wine, watched singing and dancing, and then dispersed.

When he woke up the next morning, Nalan Shu suddenly began to vomit and have diarrhea. His whole body was so limp that he couldn't even get off the bed! This frightened Yuchi Gong, who had come with him, and he hurriedly followed him.

I searched for the address Mo Deng left before, and brought Mo Deng and Mo Xian back to their residence in a hurry to show him.

Mo Zeng was practicing the ancestral medicinal stone technique. After feeling Nalan Shu's pulse, he realized that he was not acclimatized, but someone had given him an excessive amount of laxatives, so he prescribed a prescription.

, sent someone to grab some medicine for him and bring it back to boil. After Nalanshu drank the medicine that Mo waited for him, he felt much better all over. Although his legs were still a little weak, after all, he was not

I can only stay in the toilet and can't go out.

Because Nalan Shu was unwell, and the alliance meeting could not be stopped just because of him, Sima Yu went to the alliance meeting alone on the second day.

"I have a proposal that is conducive to the harmonious coexistence of the three kingdoms. I would like to discuss it with the Emperor Shang and the Second Highness of the Feng Kingdom. I wonder if you two are interested?"

During the dinner, Sima Yu suddenly stood up, bowed politely to Shang Fusu and Chang Xiuyuan, and said this.

"Since it is conducive to the harmonious coexistence of the three countries, it should be a good thing. Your Highness might as well talk about it."

Seeing that Nalan Shu didn't come to the alliance meeting, Shang Fusu took it easy. He accepted Mo Xian's invitation and went to have a private talk. He just turned a blind eye and closed one eye, just as he promised Mo Xian at that time.

Keep it in mind, and Sima Yu... Since he would come out to speak at such a time, it must have been discussed with Nalan Shu.

"Your Highness, please speak."

Chang Xiuyuan urgently asked Chang Zhentian to teach him, and sat silently until Shang Fusu agreed.

"Now that the country of Italy has been destroyed and the three kingdoms are standing together, it is inevitable that there will be some unscrupulous people who want to take the opportunity to cause chaos and destroy the friendship between the three kingdoms."

Sima Yu paused for a moment, narrowed his eyes slightly, and looked at Shang Fusu with a smile on his face, "I would like to propose that two people from each of the three countries be sent to the other two countries as hostages. Prince,

All important ministers are welcome, what do you two think of this proposal?"

"I have never heard of such a bold proposal. I wonder, has His Highness ever discussed it with Emperor Mo?"

Shang Fusu was slightly startled. He was not yet married and had no heirs. His two elder brothers died in the previous battle for the throne. If he agreed, it would be equivalent to sending away two important ministers of the Shang Kingdom.

The influence of Mo and Feng on the Shang Kingdom is not small, but if this is what the Shang Emperor wants, then... shouldn't it also have something to do with Nalan Shu? If it is with Nalan Shu

If he talks about it, then even if he doesn’t want to agree, that’s no good!

"The Shang Emperor is really interesting. How can a little prince dare to decide such a big matter without his father's permission?"

Sima Yu smiled calmly, as if what Shang Fusu just said was a joke to him, "Teacher is busy today and is unable to come. If your Majesty doesn't believe it, you can send someone to ask him."

Fan!"

Having said that, Shang Fusuruo still felt that what Sima Yu said was false, so he asked someone to ask Nalan Shu about it, but it was too ugly, and it was no different from hitting him in the face directly.

"Since this is Emperor Mo's intention, then... I wonder if it would be appropriate for me to ask, who does Mo State intend to bring to Shang State as a hostage?"

Shang Fusu pondered for a moment, then continued to ask questions, wanting to test how sincere Mo Guo was this time. On his side, he had better make plans in advance and draft a decree to summon the right people in case of emergencies.

needs.

"Gu's fifth brother, Sima Shang, came here with his wife Nalan Xue. Do you think Emperor Shang is sincere enough?"

Sima Yu raised his eyebrows slightly and looked at Shang Fusu with an obvious provocative look in his eyes, "Before, when our Mo country was attacking Italy, the Shang country helped us in a timely manner. This matter often troubled me.

My father keeps talking about it!"

The same sentence may have different meanings when heard by different people.

Previously, Shang Fusu got Nalan Xue's letter before sending troops to Italy. Taking advantage of the fact that Italy's army was already contained in Mo Country, he got a big advantage. Although, his reason for sending troops was "

"It's enough", but it won't be released soon

The troops were too late to send troops, but they just sent troops at that "opportunity"... The army of Italy has been destroyed, and Mo State is fully capable of swallowing it up. If Shang State intervenes, it is inevitable that it will make them suffer.

People feel that it is not kind enough!

Shang Fusu's mind suddenly changed, and he suddenly thought that this time, Emperor Mo didn't do as usual for the alliance meeting, and only sent Nalan Shu to come... Could this be his previous contact with Nalan Xue?

, it was spread to Emperor Mo’s ears, which affected the Nalan family and lost Emperor Mo’s trust?

"Your Majesty, Emperor Shang, have you thought about it?"

Sima Yu took a step further, and there was already a gloomy tone in his voice, with an attitude of vowing to force him to agree, which made Shang Fusu feel a chill behind him, "Perhaps, Emperor Shang thinks that I can't

The country is not sincere enough and needs to exchange the people sent to the Shang Kingdom as hostages with those sent to the Feng Kingdom?"

"Since Emperor Mo is sincere and wants the three kingdoms to live in harmony, then I will just follow his wishes and agree to this matter!"

Shang Fusu's heart tightened when he heard Sima Yu say that Nalan Xue was going to be transferred to Feng Country.

If she is in the Shang Kingdom, he can still protect her and prevent her from being wronged. If she goes to the Feng Kingdom... there is no guarantee that the Feng Emperor will look for an opportunity to kill her in order to avoid future troubles.

She, a good general of Mo country, was "sent away"!

It was just the loss of two courtiers, nothing compared to Nalan Xue's well-being!

Shang Fusu thought this way.

"I wonder...what does Your Highness Xiuyuan think?"

Having forced Shang Fusu to agree, Sima Yu turned his gaze to the restless Chang Xiuyuan, half threatening, half provocative, and asked him, "Is Feng Guo like Mo and Shang?

Do you hope that the world will be peaceful and the people will be happy?"

"Xiu Yuan needs to ask my father about this matter before I dare to answer it."

Feng Emperor Chang Zhentian had five princes and three princesses. Among them, two princes died young. Now in the palace, even including him, there are only three princes left. With Chang Zhentian's power over Chang Xianfeng

Trust and favor will definitely not be allowed to go to other countries as a pledge. Then, it is only possible... yes... no, no,

He has a long-term relationship and is full of enthusiasm. He wants to show off his talents in the Feng Kingdom and be a wise minister. He does not want, absolutely does not want to go to other countries to be a hostage and become a useless person from now on! (To be continued. If you like this
