Chapter 1200 Qinpu's Plan

Facing Suzan's question, Qinpu calmly took the butter tea and took a sip.

When he put down the bowl, Qinpu asked Suzan, "Since Xiqu has not submitted to Daqian, does that mean Xiqu is stable?"

"This……"

Su Zan was speechless, and then said: "Although Xiqu is in chaos now, the situation is still under our control! If Xiqu surrenders to Daqian, the situation will probably be beyond our control!"

Qin Pu nodded, "What the Prime Minister said does make sense!"

"But as long as we prevent the various departments from uniting, even if someone uses this as an excuse to cause trouble, it won't be a big deal!"

"Moreover, I can assure the Prime Minister that the three tribes of Dabu, Huoyang, and Bolü will fully support us in submitting to Daqian!"

As he spoke, Qinpu showed an extremely confident smile on his face.

Su Zan's eyelids twitched and he looked at Qin Pu in surprise.

Has Chinpu already gained the support of the three tribes of Dabu, Huoyang and Bolü?

This prince seemed to be hiding a lot of things from them!

He suddenly realized that he knew too little about Prince Chimpu.

Facing Suzan's surprised look, Qinpu continued, "In fact, as long as we don't harm the interests of other tribes, they won't be too dissatisfied! I believe the Prime Minister also understands this!"

understand?

Su Zan smiled calmly.

Of course he understands.

The various tribes opposed submitting to Daqian simply because they were afraid that their interests would be affected when paying tribute.

As long as all tribute items are borne by the Western Qiang tribe, the other tribes really don't care whether they pay tribute or not.

Interests are the most important!

"There are many things we can discuss between us and Daqian!"

Qinpu smiled and continued, "What Daqian needs is for us to pay tribute. As for how much tribute we pay, they may not care that much!"

"That's true!"

Su Zan nodded in agreement. "For the Emperor and the Crown Prince of Daqian, they need us to pay tribute to them to prove to the people that their court is not useless!"

They cared more about the name than the amount of tribute.

Qinpu: "So, submitting to Daqian is our best option now! No matter what, we can at least eliminate the threat in one direction."

In Qinpu's opinion, the Daqian court is not a cause for concern.

Xiqu’s biggest enemy is Yun Zheng!

The rebellion of the Hun Gu tribe must be closely related to Yun Zheng.

It is not a shame to submit to the Daqian court.

If Xiqu was destroyed by Yun Zheng, it would be a real shame.

As long as the threat from the Daqian court was eliminated, they could focus on quelling the rebellion of the Hun Gu tribe and at the same time transfer more troops to guard against Yun Zheng.

Internally, accelerate the integration of various tribes and actively initiate trade with Daqian and Xiuluo.

In addition, abolishing slavery as soon as possible would not only release more labor, but also further weaken the various tribes of Xiqu and strengthen the monarch's centralization.

Listening to Qinpu's talk, Suzan agreed in his heart, but his expression remained expressionless.

"Since you want to be a vassal, why don't you be a vassal to Yun Zheng?"

Su Zan smiled, "In terms of strength alone, Yun Zheng should be stronger than the Daqian court! Isn't it better to be a vassal of the strong to get better protection?"

Qin Pu shook his head. "Yun Zheng is ambitious. He will never allow a complete Xiqu to exist! Xiqu will surrender to Yun Zheng unless we cede half of our territory to him! Just like Beihuan..."

Qinpu saw this very clearly.

The Daqian court may just want to be the leader.

But Yun Zheng wanted to destroy all the wolves, except for himself!

They had no choice but to submit to Yun Zheng, unless they were willing to be part of the flock forever.

"Thank you, Your Highness, for clearing up my confusion!"

Su Zan showed a satisfied smile on his face. "Now that the Holy King is unable to handle government affairs, Your Highness, how do you think the new king can reduce the internal friction of Xiqu as much as possible?"

"That depends on the Prime Minister." Qin Pu smiled: "I believe that with the Prime Minister's wisdom, he can definitely reduce the internal friction of Xiqu as much as possible!"

In this battle for the new king, whoever can gain Su Zan's support will win.

Su Zan frowned slightly, feeling hesitant.

Of course, he has ways to reduce the internal friction in Xiqu as much as possible.

If he supported Chinpu, the result of the battle for the throne would be that Basang Tsering would kill his father and seize power. Chinpu would lead his troops to kill Basang Tsering and become the new king.

However, Sangjie not only saved Suzan's life, but also recognized him as a talented person.

Although Suzan is also a member of the royal family, if it weren't for Sangjie, he would most likely become a fallen nobleman. How could he have the status he has today?

Now, he still felt a little reluctant to take action against Sanjay.

Suzan never thought of seizing the throne, he only wanted to assist Sangjie and achieve unprecedented achievements.

But Sanjie's eyes are already half blind, and letting Sanjie sit on the throne will do more harm than good to Xiqu.

However, if you want Sanjie, who has been the Holy King for only one year, to abdicate, you have to kill him!

Only when Sangjie dies can the new king's position be more stable and Xiqu can minimize the losses caused by civil strife.

Su Zan frowned, unable to make up his mind.

Qinpu saw Suzan's hesitation, and slowly stood up and bowed, saying: "If the Prime Minister is willing to take his place, Qinpu is also willing to follow the Prime Minister and defend our Xiqu territory!"

"I have never had such intention."

Su Zan shook his head, "Your Highness, there is no need to test me."

"You are wrong, Prime Minister." Qin Pu said seriously, "I am not testing you, Prime Minister. I am speaking from the bottom of my heart!"

"Nowadays, Xiqu is facing internal and external troubles. There should be a wise leader to lead the tribes to resist the foreign enemies and protect Xiqu from being destroyed!"

"All Qinpu wants is to make Xiqu stronger and not be destroyed by the thieves!"

"To be honest, it's not easy to sit on the throne of Xiqu!"

Su Zan lowered his head and said nothing.

He understood that Qinpu was retreating in order to advance.

Does Chinpu really not want to sit on that throne?

How can it be!

Seeing that Suzan still did not express his opinion, Chinpu asked again: "As you can see, who does Chinpu admire the most?"

"Who?"

Su Zan asked even though he knew the answer.

He had already guessed Chimp's answer.

The person Qinpu admires most is him!

"Yunzheng!"

Chimp spoke slowly.

"Yun... Yun Zheng?"

Su Zan's face changed slightly, and he felt very embarrassed. He quickly asked a question to cover up his embarrassment, "Why does Your Highness admire Yun Zheng the most?"

Qin Pu said sincerely: "If Yun Zheng wants to sit on the throne of Daqian, the Daqian court will not be able to stop him."

"However, Yun Zheng did not think about the throne, but continued to expand the territory for Daqian and eliminate foreign enemies!"

“Although Qinpu’s talent is not as good as Yunzheng’s, he also wants to be like Yunzheng!”

Become someone like Yun Zheng?

Su Zan smiled bitterly in his heart.

Yes!

Who doesn’t want to be like Yun Zheng?

But in this world, there is only one Yun Zheng who "shocks the world with his three-foot-long sword and sweeps the northern border with his white horse."

Su Zan was constantly struggling with his conscience and his desires.

After a long time, Su Zan knelt down slowly and prostrated himself to Qin Pu.

"Su Zan is willing to serve Your Highness with his remaining body..."
