In the Palace of King Xi, Yao Yun met with Jiang Wuxu and Gongsun Wu in the Blue Bird Hall.
The treatment received is not small, second only to that of a prince.
The reason for Xi Guo's sudden change of attitude is very simple, that is, the two of them brought six people to the palace and made a compromise gesture. Of course Yao Yun had to react.
Speaking of Jiang Wuxu and Gongsun Wu, although they do not have titles, they are both the leaders of the young generation in the clan. They have reached the late fifth-level cultivation level and have extraordinary abilities. By exploring the Southern Wilderness this time, they are very likely to obtain titles and lands.
Become a prince.
The due respect and courtesy are still indispensable.
"Xihou, we have brought the people you want. The six of them made mistakes, and they will all be punished by Xihou."
After the two of them finished speaking, six young men and women with their hands tied walked into the hall, surrounded by a group of armored soldiers. Their faces were full of despair and ashen.
Yao Yun's mind swept away and he found that it was indeed the six people who were absconding in fear of crime. He nodded with satisfaction. The emperor's decree worked. With one decree, all problems were solved.
"Well~ I'm not wrong about the three of you. You are sensible and generous in your actions. Not bad!"
Yao Yun's words felt like he was being taken advantage of and acted like a good boy. After hearing this, Jiang Wuxu and Gongsun Wu felt aggrieved and wished they could leave immediately.
The proud look on Xihou Yao Yun's face really made people uncomfortable when he really agreed to Emperor Ziqi's words. For a moment, the two of them envied Xing Tianli - Xing Tianli's brother died on Xihou, and he could not be beaten to death.
I would like to come to Xiwang Palace.
Yao Yun saw that the two men looked ugly, so he smiled and stopped as soon as he was happy, without stopping them from getting off the stage.
"These six people attempted to commit a crime and were originally sentenced to three years in prison. However, they absconded due to fear of crime. Their crimes were increased to one level and punished for several crimes. In the end, they were sentenced to five years in prison as a warning to others. Do you have any objections?"
Yao Yun asked about Jiang Wuxu and the other two, but did not ask about the six people in the palace.
"Xihou is fair, we have no objection!"
Jiang Wuxu and Gongsun Wu immediately handed over their hands and said they had no objection. In fact, if the clan asked them to make friends, it would mean that the top leaders failed in the fight and had compromised. Even if Xihou was sentenced to a hundred years, they would hold their noses and admit it.
There is no choice at all.
However, what the two of them didn't expect was that Xihou's attack was not as difficult as imagined, and he was only punished for five years. He was completely different from the previous impression of being strong, domineering, and unreasonable.
The four men and two women who were already ashen-faced heard Xihou's verdict, and all of them came to life with surprises on their faces.
When they learned that their clan had abandoned them, they had a premonition that it was over and Xihou would not let them go easily. They thought they would be imprisoned for at least several decades, but they never expected that it would only be five years.
For a successful Qi practitioner, five years is nothing in the blink of an eye!
For a moment, the six people felt inexplicably "flattered" by Xihou's openness.
"Thank you so much, Marquis Xi, for your kindness. Thank you so much, Marquis Xi..."
With a pop, four men, two women, and six descendants of the Imperial Clan knelt down to salute without moral integrity, crying with gratitude.
"Well~ don't do it again next time, serve your sentence well, and try to come out as soon as possible to be a good person. Don't violate the laws of Xi Kingdom in the future!" Yao Yun waved his hand and ordered the soldiers to take the six people out.
Before leaving the palace, the six people were still grateful to Yao Yun for showing mercy to them.
When Jiang Wuxu and Gongsun Wu saw this scene, they looked at each other, their hearts were extremely complicated and they didn't know what to say.
When they came to King Xi's palace, these six people kept cursing Xihou, but now they felt grateful because Xihou persecuted them less!
Jiang Wuxu and Gongsun Wu could see that the gratitude of the six people was sincere.
What a ridiculous thing!
After the six people were taken out, Yao Yun's eyes fell on the two of them, and he said with a kind face: "You two have been in the Southern Wilderness for half a year. What do you think? I heard that the emperor intends to support the heroes of the celestial dynasty to open up new horizons. You two must have great ambitions."
Be ambitious!"
Jiang Wuxu and Gongsun Wu saw that Yao Yun had changed from being fierce and cold before, and his faces were full of spring breeze. For a moment, the two of them were a little "flattered".
In fact, the two of them don't have much hatred for Yao Yun. Although Jiang Guang and Gongsun Ying are their relatives, their relationship is not close, just like Yao Yun and Master Jimo and Master Shenghu, they are nominally
Uncle and nephew, but they don't have much affection. Unlike Xing Tianli, his brother Xing Tianming died, and he was filled with hatred.
Jiang Guang and Gongsun Ying died. Jiang Wuxu, as the leader of the clan in the Southern Wilderness, was forced to speak out. In fact, they were worried that they would endanger Xihou because of the Yingshui Lake incident, which would lead to their expansion in the Southern Wilderness.
Big things are hindered.
For this reason, the two of them had many complaints against Gongsun Ying, Jiang Guang and others in private.
Now, when the two of them saw that Yao Yun did not anger the Jiang family and the Gongsun family because of this, they felt relieved and felt much relieved.
Jiang Wuxu bowed his hands and said in salute: "To be honest with Marquis Xi, in the past six months we have gone deep into the southern barbarian lands for many inspections and gained a lot.
There are barbarian tribes of all sizes outside the Southern Wilderness Kingdoms. They are numerous and mixed, but they are just a ragtag group of people and are nothing to worry about. The real threat is the Southern Barbarian Kingdoms, and they are our real opponents.
According to us, the most recent ones are the Jiechu Kingdom, the Yu Republic Kingdom, the Huantou Kingdom and other countries. The Yu Republic Kingdom and the Huantou Kingdom are the most powerful, especially the Huantou Kingdom. It was once created by the descendants of the Emperor of Heaven, and its descendants are inherited by the Emperor of Heaven. It is very powerful.
As usual, it’s quite difficult to win.”
Gongsun Wu also continued: "Yes, the Southern Barbarian countries are helping each other, and they will not be able to defeat them for a while. Our plan is to proceed step by step, start with the surrounding barbarian tribes, conquer them one by one, attack steadily, and slowly encroach on the Southern Barbarian countries."
Yao Yun shook his head. The idea of the gods of the Central Earth Emperor clan to choose a steady attack was a good one, but it was not easy to implement. The Southern Barbarian countries were not deaf or blind, nor were they in disarray. If there was any action on the Southern Wilderness side, they would immediately fight back, so they wanted to
It is impossible to fight slowly and slowly, and conflicts will break out at any time.
"You two have a good idea, but I have to remind you that you can open up the Southern Wilderness, but you must be responsible. In other words, if you open up the Southern Barbarians' land and invite the Southern Barbarians' revenge, you must have enough troops to guard the borders of the Celestial Empire.
, don’t let the war burn to the Southern Wilderness countries and let us suffer unreasonable disasters.”
"This is natural! Please rest assured, Marquis Xi,"
Jiang Wuxu and Gongsun Wu promised again and again, but the next moment, their faces showed embarrassment and embarrassment.
"Marquis Xi, we have no shortage of powerful elite troops in the various countries of China. However, China is far away from us by thousands of rivers and mountains. It is difficult to transport food and there is insufficient food and grass. If thousands of troops and horses come to the Southern Wilderness, won't they starve!"
"That's right, Marquis Xi, we can mobilize elite troops. I wonder if you can sell us food?"
When Yao Yun heard this, he was happy, clapped his hands, and said: "Of course I will sell it. I can sell any excess grain to you. You just need to mobilize the elite troops. Don't worry about not having enough grain. Xiguo will have a good harvest of new grain in May and June.
You can buy it now."
Jiang Wuxu and Gongsun Wu were stunned. The new grain has not been sown in the fields yet, so can it be bought now? Is Xihou going crazy for money?
"Marquis Xi, what should I do if there is a disaster and the food harvest fails? What should I do if Xi Kingdom cannot produce food?
"There is nothing you can do about natural disasters and man-made disasters."
"..." Jiang Wuxu and Gongsun Wu were speechless. They had already determined that Xihou was really crazy about money.
"If you are worried that there will be a natural disaster in the future and the food cannot be harvested, it is okay not to buy it. You can also come to Xiguo to buy ready food in the future. However, I cannot guarantee whether there will be food by then."
Yao Yun took a sip of the tea soup, looked relaxed, and said leisurely, thinking to himself, this is probably the first commodity futures transaction in the Zhuxia Dynasty, creating history!
"Marquis Xi, are you saying that Marquis Xi will sell to the descendants of the gods of the major imperial clans in China?"
"That's right, I will inform all the gods of the Imperial Clan later. You are lucky to know it in advance. Since you two are unwilling to buy it, forget it. Now I don't have to worry about selling the food in my hands. You two will buy it in half a year.
If you don’t have enough food, don’t blame me for not reminding you two!”
"this..."
Jiang Wuxu and Gongsun Wu were entangled for a while, and their gazes towards Yao Yun also changed slightly.
In the past, Lei Lei was angry and wanted people's lives, but now He Feng Xiaoyu was asking for people's money.
