Chapter 1734 Gu Jiantang has a rare treasure!

Xu Xiao saw that Wang Yue was thinking about the people, so he smiled and said, "Your Majesty, you have to hurry up. I'm afraid that I won't be able to do it by then, and I can only watch you conquer the world."

Wang Yue knew this in his heart, and he said happily, "After Chen Zhibao left Beiliang with his people, the whole of Beiliang is now almost controlled by Feng Nian. He helps me guard against Beimang and other things." There’s no rush.”

When Xu Xiao saw Wang Yue say this, he felt relieved. He said happily, "I feel relieved that you don't care about Fengnian. Don't worry, as long as my mother and I are still in Beiliang Stay here, Feng Nian will not let Beimang go south from any pass in Beiliang."

Wang Yue saw that Xu Xiao was so full in his promise and left no room for retreat. He said with satisfaction, "In that case, please ask Fengnian to carry out land equalization in Beiliang."

Xu Xiao was speechless. Wang Yue named Xu Fengnian. In fact, he was asking Xu Fengnian to personally attack the senior officials of Beiliang, without Wang Yue having to offend him himself.

However, if Xia Guo did this, the people and soldiers of the entire Northern Liang would benefit, so he had no objection in his heart.

Besides, it was like the treasury would reimburse the money in the future, but it just prevented those officials from exploiting the people. He felt that Wang Yue was already benevolent and righteous enough, and if he thought too much, he would be greedy.

So, he nodded and said, "Don't worry, I will go with Fengnian."

In fact, there is not much land that can be cultivated in Beiliang, and it is not a problem for Xu Xiao. It is just the size of the pasture.

He happily agreed, and then began to arrange the procession to send off the bride.

This time, the wedding was accompanied by 10,000 heavy cavalry from the Weixiong Army, so the speed was not very fast, but it also made everyone in the world understand that Beiliang had officially turned to the Xia Kingdom.

As a result, all the major aristocratic families were very worried about whether Liyang, with only 30% of its land left, would be unable to withstand the pressure from Xia Kingdom, so they all began to have their own ideas.

Some want to surrender. Although they don't have land, the country supports them, which seems to be quite good.

Some are unwilling. After all, it is precisely because of the land that a thousand-year-old family and a century-old dynasty can exist. If they lose their land, they will be bound to the Xia Kingdom, which they do not want to see.

However, no matter what, the wedding of Wang Yue and Xu Hedgehog was held as scheduled. On the day of the wedding, Xiangfan City was renamed Xiangyang.

…

Beimang, Wangting

The empress was getting older. She looked at the Kanyu map at her feet and realized that Xia Kingdom had almost annexed most of Liyang.

After Xia Guo appeared, everything in the world was no longer in her calculations. She said with some emotion in her heart, "Taiping Order, I wonder if I will still see the grand event you mentioned in my lifetime?"

The Taiping Order had just recently reintegrated the Qi Jian Yue Mansion, and then they heard about the great changes in the south, which immediately disrupted their plans, and they had no idea of ​​​​going south to the two Liaos for the second time.

Because they all know in their hearts that if Beimang takes action against Liang Liao at this time, it will be equivalent to helping Xia Kingdom attract attention and make it easier for Xia Kingdom to dominate the world.

Taiping Ling walked to the territory of Liang Liao and looked at it for a long time, and then said solemnly, "Your Majesty, the Xia Kingdom is now powerful. Even if we don't take any action, the Xia Kingdom will destroy Liyang in the future and become our great enemy. Therefore, we should not let Xia Guo’s actions affect our plans.”

The empress nodded. She actually thought so too, but she was always a little worried.

Seeing that Taiping Ling also agreed, she said seriously, "Then based on Taiping Ling's opinion, should we recruit Gu Jiantang to surrender?"

After hearing what the empress wanted, the Taiping Order thought for a while and immediately nodded and said, "Your Majesty, this is a good idea. Gu Jiantang encouraged Zhao Wu to rebel. Although he got the position of King of Liao, he did not get the actual fiefdom. If your Majesty helps him, Having secured the position of King of Liao, it is doubtful that we can really make him surrender."

The empress nodded and said solemnly, "In that case, please ask the Taiping Order to arrange for someone from your Qi Jian Yue Mansion to contact Gu Jiantang and see what he thinks."

The Taiping Order understood that the empress' arrangement was very reasonable. Only the people from Qi Jian Yue Mansion often traveled around, so they could approach Gu Jiantang quietly without being noticed by others.

After thinking about it for a moment, he said solemnly, "Your Majesty, Gu Jiantang is already the King of Liao, and we don't seem to have any trump cards to negotiate with him."

This was what the empress was worried about. She stared at the position of the two Liaos for a long time, and then she said loudly, "I can accept him as my adopted son and make him the emperor of Liao, as long as he pays tribute to me in Beimang every year."

Taiping Ling knew that this was the best condition offered by Beimang, so he said respectfully, "Yes, Your Majesty!"

…

Two Liao Dynasties, Liao Prince's Mansion

Gu Jiantang, who was forced to cross the river and demolish the bridge by Zhao Wu, has returned to Liangliao. He knows that this is his foundation, even if it is not his fiefdom, it is the same.

Therefore, he did not stay in the Liao Prince's Mansion in Tai'an City, and went back to the two Liaos directly, leaving Tai'an City to the Zhao royal family.

As a result, as soon as he returned to Prince Liao's Mansion, he met Hong Jingyan, a swordsman from Beimang Qi Jian Yue Mansion.

He could feel that Hong Jingyan was not simple, so he asked solemnly, "I wonder what you want to do when you come here?"

Hong Jingyan smiled and said, "I am here to ask Gu Shangshu what he thinks after being ordered by the Taiping Order."

Gu Jiantang immediately understood what Hong Jingyan meant, and he said decisively, "I am the king of Liao now. I am the leader of the two Liaos. I am very good."

Hong Jingyan said with a smile, "You helped Zhao Wu ascend the throne, but he only gave you the throne of King of Liao instead of granting you two Liaos. Isn't it so disrespectful?"

Of course Gu Jiantang knew what the other party meant, and he said solemnly, "I'm afraid my status will only be this when I get to Beimang, so what's the pity?"

He did have this idea. When he saw that the former emperor Zhao Zhuan actually left 50,000 imperial guards to Zhao Wu, a few days later King Guangling came to the imperial city with 100,000 troops, and he found that he had no more soldiers. Opportunity to ascend to the throne.

He was very angry at first, but after he calmed down, he suddenly realized that he seemed to be able to reap the benefits. No matter who won the world, he was the king of Liao. He was in a position where he could advance, attack, retreat and defend.

Therefore, he didn't care at all about Hong Jingyan's attempts to win over him, but he didn't want to offend Bei Mang either.

After all, if Beimang takes over the world in the future, he still hopes that he belongs to the King of Liao. It is not good to offend him at this time.

He just hopes to use this throne to win people's hearts quickly, so what he needs is time.

Hong Jingyan saw through Gu Jiantang's thoughts, and he said calmly, "Although King Liao got his wish, it is nothing more than a virtual shell. Over the years, your army of 300,000 has been infiltrated by the Zhao royal family. If you don't use Zhao Wu as a cover last time, they are unlikely to listen to you. And after you become the king of Liao, it may not be easy for you. "

Seeing Hong Jingyan's aggressiveness, Gu Jiantang smiled and said, "In this world, Beimang has no absolute advantage, so you should go back and think about what benefits you can give me to surpass the King of Liao, and then come and negotiate terms with me. "

Hong Jingyan didn't expect that Gu Jiantang would point to the reality right away. Beimang and the wolf-like Xia Kingdom were actually on par. As for who would win the world, it was hard to say. Gu Jiantang was indeed qualified to be neutral.

Thinking of this, he felt that he could reveal his trump card, so he said solemnly, "We, the Queen, intend to give you the position of Emperor Liao."

Gu Jiantang was stunned for a moment, feeling very excited, but he calmed down immediately. Once he became emperor, he would be completely convinced to rebel. He said very unhappy, "What are your conditions?"

Hong Jingyan looked at Gu Jiantang and said word by word, "The condition is that the Queen recognizes you as her adopted son, and you must pay tribute to me, Beimang, every year."

Gu Jiantang was a little angry. The queen was not much older than him. She once wanted Xu Xiao to be the emperor's wife, but when she came to him, she became his son. It was so bullying. Could it be that he was not as good as Xu Xiao? ?

He was furious, but he didn't have the courage to turn his face. He just turned around to prevent Hong Jingyan from seeing his anger, and said in a cold voice, "You go, I need to think about it!"

Hong Jingyan noticed the change in Gu Jiantang's mood. He didn't know why, but he solemnly said goodbye and left. He was originally an envoy, and everything was decided by His Majesty.

…

Xiangyang, Imperial Palace

Chengde Hall

There are two or three people sitting in the hall, a total of four people.

Of course Wang Yue sat down, and those standing were Chen Zhibao, Cao Changqing, and a close aide of Gu Jiantang.

Wang Yue looked at the heroic and heroic captain and asked curiously, "You, King of Liao, want to sell Liyang to me? Do you just want to continue to be King of Liao?"

The school captain was full of arrogance and said proudly, "It's not about selling or not. Our two Liaos are not affiliated with the Central Plains. The empress of Beimang even promised that my Liao king could be promoted to the Liao emperor in exchange for us and Beimang." Go south. It’s just that it’s difficult for my prince to care about the people of the Central Plains, so he wants to talk to Emperor Xia.”

Wang Yue nodded calmly, and then said casually, "You go down first and let me think about it."

The captain didn't see anything from Wang Yue's face, so he could only nod helplessly and said, "In that case, the foreign minister will wait for news from Emperor Xia."

Wang Yue smiled and nodded, and after watching him go out, he smiled and said, "What do you think?"

Chen Zhibao frowned and said with some displeasure, "Gu Jiantang thinks that he is a rare commodity, which just proves that he is just a leader and a rat at both ends. There is nothing to worry about at all, and there is no need to consider his suggestions. Just take it when the time comes."

Cao Changqing also nodded and said solemnly, "Your Majesty, you must never agree. If your Majesty agrees to him, it will be difficult to regret it in the future."
