Chapter 32: Establish the Four Protectorate Houses Again
Such a thing happened in the Western Region, my husband, he shouldn’t blame all the blame on his cousin, right?
Yun Xiaoxi's heart suddenly tightened when she thought of this, and she immediately looked towards Liu Mingzhi with a worried expression.
She wanted to ask, but she also knew that this was not the place to ask questions.
Liu Mingzhi noticed Yun Xiaoxi's gaze on him, turned sideways casually, and gave the beauty a calm look with a faint smile.
After receiving her husband's signal, the tension in Yun Xiaoxifang's heart instantly eased.
"call."
It’s good if nothing happens, it’s good if nothing happens.
"Du Yu, are the other officials in the Anxi Protectorate's Mansion currently on duty in the Protectorate's Mansion?"
"Coming back to the commander-in-chief, seventy-eight out of ten officials are on duty in the Protector's Mansion.
I don’t know who they are specifically.”
Liu Ming nodded slightly, took a few sips of tea, frowned slightly and pondered for a moment, then turned sideways and looked towards Song Qing.
"Brother."
"Third brother?"
"Immediately, Golden Eagle sends a message to Yun Yingjie, the Deputy Protector of the Anxi Protectorate, instructing him to immediately lead all the fourth-rank and above-ranked officials in the Protectorate to the Gumo King's Palace after receiving the letter.
Come and meet this young master."
"Okay, brother, I will prepare a letter right away."
"Rong Rong."
"Hey, I'm here."
"Immediately arrange for people to send a letter to the kings of the other thirty-five countries with golden eagles or falcons, and order them to come to Gumo Kingdom to meet their husbands immediately after receiving the letter.
You just have to read and write the specific content of the letter.
"Yes, I'll go get ready right away."
"Sister Ya."
"Hey, I'm here, husband, what are your orders?"
"Served by pen and ink."
"Yes, husband, please wait for a moment, get up and go back to the room to get it immediately."
After Qi Yafu bowed, he walked straight to the room where he lived.
"Willow Pine."
"You are here, Master?"
Young Master Liu picked up the dry tobacco bag on the table and lit a pot of shredded tobacco very skillfully.
Then, he narrowed his eyes and took a puff of the cigarette, then paced back and forth with one hand behind his back.
Liu Song looked at Mr. Liu who was wandering back and forth, and stood beside him and waited quietly.
Qi Yun, the third princess, Yun Qingshi and other sisters all put down the things in their hands and looked at Young Master Liu who was pacing back and forth gently with different expressions.
Only the little cute girl was munching the melon in her hand carelessly, as if nothing happened.
It took about half a cup of tea.
Qi Yadu had already returned with the Four Treasures of the Study, but Young Master Liu still did not stop.
Seeing his young master looking like this, Liu Song was not in a hurry. The old man was still standing by and waiting.
Qi Ya held up her sleeves and ground the ink. After laying out the rice paper, she immediately straightened her waist and looked towards Young Master Liu.
She looked at the man who was puffing away his breath and pacing back and forth with light steps, and there was a hint of hesitation in his beautiful eyes.
She was wondering whether she should interrupt her husband's thoughts.
Just as Qi Ya was struggling, Liu Dashao suddenly stopped.
"Sister Ya, are the pen and ink ready?"
Qi Ya smiled and nodded with a slight smile.
"Go back to my husband, I'm ready."
Liu Mingzhi smiled lightly and nodded, then leaned over and knocked out the half-burned tobacco from the soles of his feet, then returned to his chair and sat down again.
"Willow Pine."
"The little one is here."
"Prepare the edict."
"I obey, little one. I'll get ready right away."
Liu Mingzhi moved the pile of papyrus in front of him, dipped his pen in the ink, and began to write quickly on the rice paper.
Afterwards, every time he looked at a few pieces of rice paper, he would write a paragraph on the rice paper.
It's time for a cup of tea.
Young Master Liu put down the pen in his hand, picked up the rice paper on the desk and gently blew on the wet ink on it.
After all the ink was dry, he folded the rice paper filled with content in his hands in half.
"Sister Ya."
"Why."
"Find an envelope and put it in it."
"Yeah, I understand."
Liu Mingzhi flicked his wrist and turned to look at Liu Song, who had returned.
"Liu Song, are you ready?"
"Go back to Master, everything is ready."
Liu Mingzhi casually picked up the teacup on the table and took a sip, then stood up and started pacing back and forth again.
"Pass this young master's order.
Establish Beiting Protectorate, Annan Protectorate, Anbei Protectorate, and Andong Protectorate as soon as possible.
All commercial affairs in Heshuo Grassland, Shuofang, Liangzhou, Dulu tribe, Ashina tribe, etc. in Xinfu territory are under the control of Beiting Protectorate.
All trade matters of the Huyan tribe, Chagatai tribe, Zamul tribe...the 18th tribe in the Xinfu territory, as well as Daizhou, Jizhou and other state capitals in the Beifu territory, are all under the control of the Anbei Protectorate.
Yazhou, Fengzhou, Tangzhou, and many large and small islands overseas in Yazhou are all under the control of the Annan Protectorate.
At the same time, the Ten Kings Palace was ordered to send a letter of credence from our Dalong to Annan, Siam, Nanzhang and other countries.
All caravans, large and small, in their respective countries are ordered to obey the control of the Annan Protectorate.
If you encounter something that the Annan Protectorate cannot handle, you can write to Honglu Temple and report it to the court for disposal.
The five states on the border of Beifu and the three state capitals of the former ancestral land of the Jin Kingdom are under the control of the Andong Protectorate.
Goguryeo, Silla and other countries, same as above.
The Hall of Ten Kings, cabinet officials of all sizes.
After receiving the decree, there should be no delay and we should immediately discuss and supervise the matter.
All the officials, big and small, in the Four Protectorate's Palaces have made decisions on the deeds of the Ten Kings Palace, and there is no need to report to this young master.
Appreciate this."
Liu Song stopped the pen in his hand and quickly looked up at Young Master Liu.
"Master, is there anything else you need to add?"
Liu Mingzhi pondered for a moment, chuckled and shook his head.
"No more, that's it."
"Yes, I understand, little one."
Liu Song nodded vigorously, picked up a few new pieces of rice paper and spread them on the table, dipped his pen in ink and started writing again.
A quarter of an hour later.
Liu Song put down the pen in his hand and brought two pieces of rice paper to Young Master Liu.
"Master, please take a look."
Liu Mingzhi turned slightly sideways and looked at the contents on the two pieces of rice paper carefully.
After he finished reading all the content, he smiled and nodded.
"Well, that's good. Let's put it on the table."
"Yes, I understand, little one."
"Yun'er."
"Hey, I'm here."
"A seal for my husband."
"Husband, wait a moment, I will go get it immediately."
Soon, Qi Yun came to Young Master Liu holding an exquisite printing box.
"Husband, seal."
Liu Mingzhi took the seal box from the beauty's hand, took out his personal seal, took a breath, and put it directly on the rice paper on the table.
"Sister Ya, has the envelope been sealed?"
"Husband, it's ready. Here it is for you."
Liu Mingzhi took the envelope from Qi Ya's hand with a faint smile and handed it directly to Liu Song.
"The golden eagle passed the message back to the capital together with my young master's decree."
"Yes, I will obey, little one."
Liu Mingzhi stretched out with a tired look, and looked towards the five Du Yu brothers and dozens of imperial guards with a faint smile.
"brothers."
"I'm waiting."
"You have worked hard, go back and rest early."
"We obey, and we will retire."
Liu Mingzhi watched dozens of people gradually go away, put down the tea cup in his hand, picked up the jade fan and waved to a group of ladies.
"Ladies, let's take a walk. Let's go for a walk on the street."
Upon hearing this, all the beauties stood up and followed Young Master Liu.
"Hey, here we come."
"I'm coming."
"Yue'er, you stinky girl, do you want to come with us?"
The little cutie walked to the copper basin a few steps away and washed her hands. Looking at the group of people who were already in their twenties, she hurriedly ran after them.
"Smelly daddy, why are you in a hurry? Wait for me, girl."
…
Seven days later.
All the officials of the fourth rank and above in the Anxi Protectorate, as well as the kings of the remaining thirty-five countries in the Western Region, gathered at the Gumo King's Palace.
Palace and harem.
It is still in the courtyard outside Yong'an Palace.
Liu Song trotted all the way to Young Master Liu, looked at Young Master Liu who was reading a book and saluted directly.
"Master Qi, all the lords of the Anxi Protectorate and the kings of the thirty-five kingdoms of the Western Regions have all arrived."
Liu Mingzhi casually closed the book in his hand, looked up at Liu Song and nodded with a smile.
"pass."
"yes!"
Liu Song nodded and hurried out of the courtyard.
Liu Mingzhi casually put the book in his hand on the table next to him, turned around and looked at Qi Yun, the three princesses and sisters sitting next to him.
"Yun'er, Yan'er, your husband's hair is not messy, right?"
"Husband, there is no chaos, not at all."
The third princess stood up and came to Young Master Liu. She stretched out her hand to straighten her collar with a smile on her face.
"Husband, everything is fine now."
"Hahaha, very good, very good."
The third princess smiled, returned to her seat and sat down again.
As soon as the third princess sat down, Liu Song led dozens of people and rushed directly towards Young Master Liu and others.
Surprisingly, they were officials from the Anxi Protectorate and the kings of the thirty-five countries in the Western Regions.
Dozens of people were divided into two teams. They walked in an orderly manner five steps away from Mr. Liu and stopped. They all bowed respectfully.
"Your Majesty Yun Yingjie, Deputy Protector of the Anxi Protectorate."
"Shi Guowei, the Chief Protector of the Imperial Guard."
"Dong Tianxiao, Sima of the Protectorate of the Imperial Guard."
"Chai Qingyun, the Protector of the Imperial Guard, joined the army."
"I am under the jurisdiction of the Governor of Anxi, the governor of Xizhou, and the Governor of Kunling, to appease the ambassador Yuan Renyi."
"Tingzhou is under the jurisdiction of the Anxi Protectorate..."
"..."
"Your Majesty, long live my emperor."
"See you, the Queen, and all you noble concubines, you may live a thousand years."
"The King of Dawan Kingdom."
"The King of Parthia."
"The King of Loulan Kingdom."
"The king of Bongchen Cheshi, the former king of the country."
"Bangchen..."
"..."
"Your Majesty the Emperor, long live my emperor."
"See you, the Queen, all the noble concubines, you are thousands of years old."
Liu Mingzhi looked around at the people in front of him, smiled softly and held up his hands.
"My dear friends, my lords and kings, all of you are exempt from courtesy."
Qi Yun, the third princess, Qinglian, Wenren Yunshu and the other beauties all raised their hands in unison.
"No gifts, no gifts at all."
"I would like to thank Your Majesty, the Queen, and all the noble concubines."
"Thank you so much, Your Majesty the Emperor, and all of you ladies."
Liu Mingzhi breathed a sigh of relief, smiled softly and waved his hands to the officials of the Anxi Protectorate and the kings of the thirty-five kingdoms of the Western Regions.
"You all, please take your seats."
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
"Thank you, His Majesty the Emperor."
After everyone was seated, Young Master Liu smiled and looked towards Yun Yingjie, the Deputy Protector of the Anxi Protectorate.
"Cousin Yingjie, long time no see.
How have you been living in the Western Region these years?"
Upon hearing this, Yun Yingjie quickly stood up and saluted Young Master Liu.
"Your Majesty, everything is well. Thank you for your concern."
"Cousin, today is not an important day, let alone a formal occasion.
What are you saying, my cousin, it sounds awkward to me.
You, you'd better just call me cousin."
"Ah? This...this..."
"Okay, stop talking about this and that, that's all."
"His Majesty."
Young Master Liu frowned and glared at Yun Yingjie with a feigned expression of displeasure.
"Um?"
Yun Yingjie looked at Young Master Liu's pretending to be unhappy, smiled bitterly and nodded.
"Cousin, I have summoned you here this time. I want to talk to you about something.
Before that, brother, I have some things here, you can pass them on to each other first."
As Liu Mingzhi spoke, he smiled lightly and picked up a pile of papyrus on the desk.
"Willow Pine."
"yes."
Liu Song took the pile of papyrus from Young Master Liu's hand and immediately walked towards Yun Yingjie.
"Master Yun, please."
Yun Yingjie took the pile of papyrus with a puzzled expression, picked up one and read the contents directly.
Time flies by quietly.
I don't know since when, a layer of dense sweat began to appear on Yun Yingjie's forehead.
After a long time.
Yun Yingjie let out a silent breath, glanced at Young Master Liu with a complicated expression, and handed the papyrus in his hand to Guo Wei, the Protectorate, who was sitting next to him, with trembling arms.
Guo Wei looked at Yun Yingjie, who seemed to have something wrong with his face. After taking the pile of papyrus, he immediately picked up a piece of papyrus and read the contents on it.
Gradually, gradually.
Guo Wei, like Yun Yingjie, also had fine sweat on his forehead.
Soon, Guo Wei nervously handed the rice paper in his hand to his colleague sitting next to him, Dong Tianxiao, Sima of the Anxi Protectorate.
A stack of papyrus was passed on one after another.
Liu Mingzhi glanced at the people who were circulating the papyrus. After taking a sip of tea, he picked up the creased book on the table and started reading again.
Half a day later.
The last person has also read the content on the papyrus.
At this moment, no matter it is the officials of the Anxi Protectorate, big or small, or the kings of the thirty-five kingdoms of the Western Regions.
The faces of dozens of them all became nervous involuntarily.
Yun Yingjie, Guo Wei, Dong Tianxiao, Chai Qingyun and other officials of the Anxi Protectorate Mansion, after making eye contact with each other, stood up in unison, and looked at Young Master Liu who was reading a book with guilty expressions.
Big gift.
"I have neglected my duty, please forgive me for your Majesty's punishment."
