Chapter 367 His courtiers are crueler than the other
"So...the territory of our Dragon Kingdom has expanded again?"
Come back to your senses,
The two vendors laughed, their eyes full of pride and satisfaction.
Every time the territory of the Dragon Kingdom expanded, more wealthy merchants came to Ruyang for business, and the prices of houses in Ruyang City continued to rise.
They are old people from Ruyang City. They bought a house at a very low price early.
Now, if they sell their house and go to other places, it will definitely be considered as family capital of foreign employees.
But now they are unwilling to sell their current property no matter how much they pay. Without it, if they sell the property, they will withdraw from the Ruyang household registration. The current Ruyang household registration is more valuable than the real estate and is a status symbol.
"But His Majesty's move this time was so...there was no news at all!"
"It doesn't matter if there is any news about him, it is a good thing for our country, Dragon Country!"
"That's true!"
In this way, by noon the news had spread completely. Not only the people of Ruyang City knew about it, but also other big cities in the Dragon Kingdom had heard about it.
However, people's joys and sorrows are not the same. The people of the Dragon Kingdom are excited and excited.
Taiyuan Mansion, Daliang Palace, Imperial Study Room,
After receiving the news, the monarch Guo Ziyi was stunned on the spot and did not recover for a long time.
It wasn't until a long time later that he looked at the minister opposite.
"Why? Isn't the leader of the Dragon Kingdom who destroyed the Southern Kingdom famous?"
Before the Southern Kingdom was destroyed, they didn't hear any sound or movement. They were all still watching the excitement of the Hidden Gate and Dragon Kingdom. Now that they suddenly heard such news, it was strange that their spines didn't go cold.
If the target of the Long Kingdom's attack this time was Daliang or Dazhou, their current fate would be no different from the Yang Guozhong brothers or even worse than them.
In terms of the number and combat effectiveness of their armies, Liang and Zhou were still inferior to those of the Southern Kingdom.
"Your Majesty, the rumor is that... Yang Guoxiao of the Southern Kingdom wanted to plant a secret agent for the Wuying Hall of the Dragon Kingdom. As a result, he got involved with a disciple of Li Mo, the emperor of the Dragon Kingdom. After learning about it, Li Mo
Generals Qin Fang and Cheng Ruobing were sent to deal with the matter.
I thought it would be a beating, but unexpectedly it would be a direct annihilation of the country."
The minister opposite let out a long sigh.
In their eyes, the Dragon Kingdom was the weakest among the vassal states in the past. However, in just one year, it became so powerful.
"You want to destroy the country just because of a spy? This is too overbearing!"
Guo Ziyi was shocked.
Daliang also has spies in Ruyang, the Dragon Kingdom. Doesn't it mean that even Li Mo can find reasons to attack Daliang?
"It should be the Yang Guozhong brothers who have touched the bottom line of the Dragon Kingdom. The one palace and four pavilions of the Dragon Kingdom have a very high status in Li Mo's heart, and foreigners will never be allowed to touch it."
After taking a moment, the minister whispered.
Most of their spies are now hiding in the streets of Ruyang, so there should be no problems for the time being.
But there is no problem now. Who knows if there will be problems in the future?
If Li Mo one day finds out about Daliang's secret agent, he will probably take action against Daliang.
"Having said that...but Li Mo's behavior is...that's all. No matter what, we withdraw our spies first, and then we can inquire about information in Xiangyang, Chang'an, Luoyang and other places. We must not touch them again.
Ruyang."
Guo Ziyi rubbed his eyebrows.
He complains on his lips, but his intentions are very sincere.
"Yes, Your Majesty! By the way, Your Majesty, I heard that the Khitan has submitted a tribute letter to the Dragon Kingdom!"
After pausing for a moment and seeing Guo Ziyi's expression somewhat relieved, the minister dropped another bombshell.
"Ah? The Khitan submitted a letter of tribute? It became a vassal state of the Dragon Kingdom? How could this happen? The Khitan did not do this to the Tang Dynasty back then!"
bass!
This time, Guo Ziyi stood up in shock.
The minister's words hit his heart like a heavy hammer.
The Khitan is in the north of Daliang, and the Dragon Kingdom is in the south. If the Khitan belongs to the Dragon Kingdom, doesn't it mean that Daliang is now surrounded by the Dragon Kingdom? How will we act in the future?
Whether the trade route is open or not depends entirely on the face of the Dragon Kingdom.
"Your Majesty... the current Dragon Kingdom is much stronger than the previous Tang Dynasty!"
The minister whispered softly.
In the past, when the Tang Dynasty was at its most powerful, how many top civil servants and generals were there? Now the Dragon Kingdom can capture a large number of them, and can even fight in secret.
How can we dare to think of an ordinary secular country?
"I didn't expect...I didn't expect...that an unknown abandoned son of the Li family could reach this point."
Silent for a long time,
Guo Ziyi slowly sat back with a gloomy look on her face. She instantly felt a little older than before, as if he had already seen the end of Daliang.
"Your Majesty, even though the Dragon Kingdom is so powerful, we may not have no chance!"
At this time, the minister hurriedly spoke again.
"Opportunity? What opportunity? I, Daliang, still have a chance? Li Mo is decisive and ruthless in his actions. He will destroy the country if he doesn't get what he wants. How should I, Daliang, deal with it?"
Leaning on the dragon chair, Guo Ziyi smiled bitterly and shook his head.
For just a moment, he actually envied Gao Xianzhi and Li Guangbi.
Once upon a time, they were both the governors of the Tang Dynasty. Although they are now the kings of a country, the two of them are more stable now. If they had not established a country like them at that time and chose to join the Dragon Kingdom Li Mo, they might not have such worries.
.
"Your Majesty, although Li Mo is domineering and ruthless...but there is one characteristic. As long as we, Daliang, do not take the initiative to provoke Li Mo and try every means to make friends with him, Daliang should have no problem."
The minister hurriedly said what was on his mind.
"Yes, Li Mo is like this...but what about the ministers under his command? If those ministers want the Dragon Kingdom to achieve eternal hegemony, Daliang will definitely be destroyed."
Guo Ziyi was helpless except helpless.
He had been a minister and knew how cruel the ministers were, especially the current group of ministers in Long Kingdom.
You have to be strategic, you have to be strong!
In the previous Tang Dynasty, there was no such thing as An Lushan and Yang Guozhong.
"Your Majesty, you can rest assured. Now the Dragon Kingdom has settled an enmity with Yinmen. This matter cannot be settled in a short time. If Yinmen decides to take Li Molong away by force one day, the Dragon Kingdom will fall apart!"
"You mean Li Mo's ministers have to deal with the Yinmen in a short period of time and have no time to consider the territory of the Dragon Kingdom?"
Hearing this, Guo Ziyi slowly straightened up, feeling a little more energetic.
"That's right. According to reliable information, after the battle between Ruyang Pass and Yinmen, it was rare to see the ministers of the Dragon Kingdom who climbed the city wall that day in Ruyang City. They must have started to practice in seclusion in order to fight against Yinmen.
"
The minister nodded heavily.
"Therefore, I, Daliang, don't need to do anything at the moment. I just need to make good relations with the Dragon Kingdom and wait quietly. Your Majesty can actually draft an order to send a mission to Ruyang right now. I don't know, Your Majesty..."
"Do I have any other choice?"
Guo Ziyi took a deep breath, and the imperial study room fell into silence again.
As everyone knows,
Just when the minister from Daliang thought that the ministers from the Dragon Kingdom would not show up in a short time,
Wang Changling actually appeared in Yibo Tower again, and sat in front of several disciples including Wang Pan of Tianmeng Mountain who had just prepared to have a meal.
