Chapter 223 The visit of the envoy of the Sanu Kingdom
Jie Yukang also had his own plans. The four major tribes of Shanu were of equal strength and were at loggerheads. They were always in disputes.
But this time, he might be able to use this opportunity to severely weaken the other three tribes and unify the Shanu Kingdom.
By then, the Shanu Kingdom is located in a desert with a harsh climate, and after the Zhou army wiped out the Dashun and Dachuan Kingdoms, their strength will definitely be greatly damaged and they will not be able to start a war in a short time.
Bai Yutian and Jie Yukang looked at each other and smiled. They had their own plans and were using each other in their hearts.
"Your Majesty, that Jie Yukang must have ulterior motives."
After leaving Jie Yukang's place, Zhao Chuxue quietly said to Bai Yutian.
Zhao Chuxue was very smart and could guess some clues from Jie Yukang's words and deeds.
"Haha, the Shanu Kingdom has always been ruled by four major tribes. Jie Yukang agreed to cooperate. In fact, he also wanted to use this opportunity to weaken the other three major tribes and ensure the rule of the Shadow Tribe."
Bai Yutian laughed loudly and said to Zhao Chuxue and Dian Wei.
"Your Majesty, the unification of Shanu Kingdom will not benefit us!" Zhao Chuxue said eagerly.
"Of course I know, but there are too many enemies in Great Zhou now. Not to mention the five surrounding countries, even internally, there are two major rebels and the two mysterious forces of Tianjia Fuzhou, so I can only plan slowly."
Bai Yutian also knew in his heart that Jie Yukang was using this opportunity to unify the Shanu Kingdom, but they had no choice. Now they could only rely on the Shanu Kingdom to contain them, eliminate the two rebels first, and plan slowly.
Tianjia and Fuzhou are very mysterious. Their power is not yet clear, but they must be very powerful and may even play a role in reversing the situation of the battle. Bai Yutian cannot underestimate them.
Shen Yusheng is now calling on all the disciples of Hidden Sword Villa to study the art of alchemy. According to Bai Yutian's request, they must master the art of alchemy as soon as possible and be able to refine the elixirs in the alchemy outline.
These pills will be Bai Yutian's trump card, and their core secrets are only known to a few people including Bai Yutian.
There are still toxins left in Zhao Chuxue's body. Zhao Chuxue is in the realm of a half-step master, and her inner energy is as powerful as a master's. After being suppressed for a long time, the toxins have eroded almost everywhere in her body.
Even if Dianwei wanted to force the toxins out of Zhao Chuxue's body with internal force, he couldn't do it.
Unless the Martial Saint comes in person, it is impossible to force the toxin out of the body.
Now, Bai Yutian can only rely on detoxification pills.
These days were a rare free time. Dashun and Dachuan were rejected by Bai Yutian and became angry. However, they did not send troops for the time being, but continued to send peace talks.
If possible, they wanted to put pressure on Bai Yutian and force him to submit.
But Bai Yutian couldn't get what they wanted, so he stuck to his previous decision without any retreat.
It even shows that Dashun Kingdom and Dachuan Kingdom occupy the territory of the Great Zhou Kingdom and should be returned to the Great Zhou Kingdom.
When the Tianyi Army and the Nanchuan Army rebelled, they claimed that the emperor was incompetent and was causing harm to the world and making the people miserable.
Now, under Bai Yutian's governance, the Great Zhou Kingdom is prospering, the lives of the people are gradually getting better, and disasters in various places are gradually subsided, so the reputations of the Tianyi Army and the Nanchuan Army have been affected.
The imperial power of the Great Zhou Dynasty belongs to the Bai family, not them, so many people do not recognize the Dashun and Dachuan Kingdoms.
The Shanu Kingdom suddenly announced that it would send an envoy to visit the Great Zhou Kingdom, which shocked all surrounding countries.
They knew that the Shanu Kingdom and the Great Zhou Kingdom had always been at odds with each other. During the Five Kingdoms' rebellion against the Zhou Dynasty, the Shannu Kingdom invaded and occupied the largest territory of the Great Zhou Kingdom. There was a blood feud between the two.
However, it is surprising that the relationship between the two countries is now so good.
Moreover, the relationship between the Shanu Kingdom and the Great Zhou Kingdom made the situation around the Great Zhou Kingdom even more confusing, and the Nanyuan Kingdom and the three northern kingdoms also needed to rearrange their plans.
No one expected that after the battle in Xihuang, this would be the outcome.
The undercurrents of the Great Zhou Kingdom are surging, and a fierce storm is hidden under the calm appearance.
When spring comes, food will be sufficient, and war will begin. This has become the consensus of many people.
Ten days later, Great Zhou also welcomed a visiting envoy from the Shanu Kingdom.
This was the time when the Shanu Kingdom sent an envoy to visit the Great Zhou Kingdom after the Five Kingdoms disrupted the Zhou Dynasty four years ago.
This team was very large, with many important people coming. The leader of the Huowu Tribe personally led the team to the scene.
The four major tribes fought openly and secretly among themselves to compete for the position of acting leader, but unexpectedly Jie Yukang chose to cooperate with the Great Zhou Kingdom and asked the Shanu Kingdom to prepare a delegation to visit.
Bai Yutian asked Yuncheng to greet him in person, while he sat quietly in the Zhoutian Hall, waiting for the arrival of the envoys.
Two veteran generals, Chen Hong and Cao Shan, also personally took action and led the imperial army to maintain order, reflecting the majesty of the Zhou imperial palace.
Since Dian Wei and Zhao Chuxue became Bai Yutian's personal guards, their tasks have become much easier. They usually train the imperial army and consolidate the palace's defense.
This time the envoy from Shanu Kingdom came to visit. For such an important matter, as experienced commanders of the Imperial Guard, they naturally had to take action personally.
"Mu Qingshu, the leader of the Huowu Clan of the Shanu Kingdom, came to visit the Emperor of Zhou Dynasty." Mu Qingshu walked at the front and said loudly.
Behind him, there was a team of thousands of people, who also brought many rare treasures and special products of the Shanu Kingdom to present to the Great Zhou Kingdom.
This time, the Great Zhou Kingdom did not give Shanu Kingdom a chance to discuss at all. Cui Shou and An Dun Maochang, who were captured alive, did not put forward any conditions and were kept in prison.
But their leader was still being imprisoned in Tailin City, so they naturally didn't have the confidence to make any noise.
Mu Qingshu has a generally tall body type among Shanu people, and his skin is dark, like bronze.
The weather was still relatively cold at this time, but Mu Qingshu was shirtless, showing off his strong muscles.
"Prime Minister of the Great Zhou Kingdom, Yuncheng has met all of you!" Yuncheng nodded and said.
Mu Qingshu stood in front of Yuncheng, which undoubtedly brought huge pressure.
However, Yuncheng was neither humble nor arrogant, his attitude was indifferent, and he was not affected at all.
Yuncheng was the Prime Minister of the Great Zhou Dynasty and ranked first among the officials. He came to greet him in person, which was considered to be a great honor to Shanu Kingdom.
The Shanu Kingdom and the Great Zhou Kingdom still need to cooperate, and they also need to be polite to each other.
Mu Qingshu and Yuncheng met and each performed their own country's etiquette. Then Yuncheng invited Mu Qingshu and others to the palace.
The entire Tailin City is heavily guarded, with soldiers everywhere maintaining order.
Most of the people in Tailin City had never seen the Shanu people, so they crowded around the road to observe these guests who had come all the way from the country of Shanu.
"When you see the Emperor of Zhou at the palace later, be polite." Mu Qingshu told everyone.
Everyone nodded. Dazhou defeated Shanu Kingdom twice in a row and captured the emperor of Dazhou Kingdom. They did not dare to be too arrogant at this time.
