Chapter 105: Private Matters
What he wants to solve most now is the food problem. It is better to teach people to fish than to teach them to fish. Although planting rice is good, the harvest is not good and it is also very susceptible to insect pests.
If there was a food like potatoes that was easy to grow and highly satiating, it would surely have improved the food shortage problem in the entire Wu Dynasty.
It's a pity that even the Da Yuezhi in the Western Regions have never seen it.
Seeing that Li Yunxing looked bad, Zu Liya was worried that the other party would regret it because she didn't know about it.
He quickly snatched the drawing from Li Yunxing's hand, folded it and put it into his purse.
"Your Highness, the one you want to save is the leader of our Dayue clan. Therefore, as long as it is your request, I can agree to it."
"If you want to find this potato, after this princess returns to Dayuezhi, you must send someone to search among the people."
Zu Liya was very smart, she kept her words down first to avoid Li Yunxing turning his back and refusing to admit his fault.
Li Yunxing glanced at her coldly, "How could I believe your empty promise?"
Then he pulled off the other party's veil, and it turned out to be a stunning beauty.
That day at the General's Mansion, she was dressed in men's clothing without makeup, and she looked stunning.
Now he has put on women's clothes and simply sketched his face with a few strokes, adding a touch of softness and charm.
Li Yunxing suddenly raised his lips and smiled, "You look much better like this than when you were dressed as a man."
Zu Liya was startled and subconsciously covered her chest, "Your Highness, what do you mean by this?"
Li Yunxing smiled evilly, "You might as well take a guess."
Zu Liya swallowed her throat so nervously, "Your Highness, this is the Wu Dynasty, you are a nobleman of Tianhuang, and I am just a commoner. If you dare to use force against me, the Dayeshi will not forgive you."
Hearing her say this, Li Yunxing smiled even more, "Then you don't know that there is a famous saying in the Wu Dynasty that the whole world is not the king's soil, and the shore of the land is not the king's ministers? Besides, you are in my hands now, why should I be afraid of someone
The Great Yuezhi who is far away?"
After that, he leaned down and whispered in her ear: "I thought you had been prepared for this."
It was this heat that made Zulia tremble all over.
"No, no, I can't..."
Li Yunxing held the other party's left hand, trying to avoid pulling on her wound as much as possible.
Then he put it where he was restless, "But it's ready."
Zulia came into contact with a man's thing for the first time. It was bigger than she imagined and even hotter than she imagined.
When he tried to break free, he was grabbed hard by Li Yunxing, his hand stuck to that position and he was being led up and down.
Zu Liya was so ashamed that she wanted to bite her tongue and kill herself, but when she saw Li Yunxing's handsome face full of joking, she suddenly felt stubborn in her heart.
"Your Highness, our deal hasn't been concluded yet, so I'm afraid it's inappropriate for you to do this."
There was a slight tremor in her voice, as if she had made some kind of determination.
"Oh? Do you want to refuse?" Li Yunxing raised his eyebrows with a playful smile on his lips.
"Your Highness, we have an agreement. Only if you help me find an imperial doctor can I fulfill my promise."
Zulia took a deep breath and tried to calm herself down.
Li Yunxing's eyes darkened, and he smiled, "What's so difficult about this."
"But what I want is not you, but the Yueshi behind you."
Could it be that Li Yunxing wanted to annex the Da Yueshi? Zu Liya never thought of betraying her people in exchange for her father's life.
"No!" Zulia immediately rejected the other party without even thinking about it.
"Listen to what I have to say before you refuse. I don't like impatient women."
Li Yunxing's smile always frightened Zu Liya, and she was too deep-minded to see through his thoughts.
Just like the leading wolf in the desert, it will lead the pack of wolves to lurk in the desert for several days, and bite you on the neck when you are unprepared.
"Da Yueshi is a country in the desert, and its people are strong and brave. What's more, it is thousands of miles away from the Wu Dynasty. Do you think I would want a small country so far away from you? I am afraid that the human and financial resources consumed every year are enough to bring down the Wu Dynasty.
towards."
Zu Liya was a little confused, so why did Li Yunxing want the Yuezhi behind her?
"We have been invaded by the Xiongnu. They occupied the mountains and became kings, burning, killing and looting. However, the Xiongnu people were brave and good at fighting, and the Wu Dynasty was repeatedly defeated."
"I heard that your Da Yuezhi could not bear the harassment, so the whole family moved to the Western Regions to avoid the pursuit of the Huns."
"But as far as I know, the Huns did not stop because of this."
"If we unite, we can break this situation."
Li Yunxing spoke of his plan slowly, his eyes always fixed on Zu Liya.
The more Zu Liya listened, the more surprised she became. It turned out that Li Yunxing's target was the Huns!
"We are weak now, how can we compete with the Huns?"
"I will naturally find a way to let you Da Yuezhi return to your homeland. I just need you to contain the Xiongnu troops for me."
"This is impossible!" Zulia firmly denied, "The Huns are ferocious and cunning. If we really go to war with them, neither of us will be able to benefit."
Li Yunxing narrowed his eyes slightly, "Of course it won't be like this. I have already prepared to order the renovation of the military supplies of the Wu Dynasty. By then, you and I will be allies. If the Wu Dynasty has it, you, the Yuezhi Kingdom, will naturally have a share."
It sounds like an excellent proposal, but the people of the Great Yuezhi Kingdom chose to move far away precisely because they did not want to conflict with the Xiongnu again.
If the people are unwilling, what will happen even if she agrees?
"It's okay. You don't have to tell me in a hurry. You can't make the decision in this matter."
"But I can tell you that if you cooperate with the Wu Dynasty, you will never suffer any loss."
Li Yunxing was very confident that once the two countries formed an alliance, it would not only benefit the king, but also the people.
After the two countries established trade, many rare treasures would be continuously transported to the Wu Dynasty, and Wu Dynasty's specialties could also be sold to the Western Regions. In this way, the economic strength of the two countries would also increase rapidly.
This will not only relieve the crisis on the border, but also promote economic development. Isn't it the best of both worlds?
Although Zulia had doubts, she still nodded, "Okay, if the king can wake up smoothly, I will report this matter to him."
Having the help of the Da Yuezhi Kingdom would certainly be of great help in fighting against the Xiongnu.
It can also be regarded as a foreshadowing for Li Yunxing's next plan in advance.
Having said this, the two seemed to have reached a deal, and Zulia fully expected the other party to take her to see the imperial doctor.
"Okay, now that we've finished talking about the business, let's talk about my personal affairs."
Zu Liya didn't expect that the other party would go around and talk about it again.
