Section 24 Lobbyists
There were constant bursts of cheerful laughter from the reception room, showing that the owner in the hall was in a very happy mood. Even the guards standing outside the reception room felt the pride and joy of their bosses, exchanged glances with each other, and a smile that was comprehensible to the corners of their mouths.
"President Tan, Miss Leng, you are too rewarding. The Motes were originally close allies in our northwest. Guerdan dared to go against the trend of history. It was inevitable that he would fail. It was not that our Northwest Army had any earth-shaking skills, but that we had won the support of the vast majority of people in the Motes. The God of Victory naturally stood on our side. As for the Luobei people taking advantage of the situation, I will settle accounts with them sooner or later. Don't think that the matter can be finished once you leave. Monks can't run away. The Tengri Grassland is the grassland of all ethnic groups on the grassland, not a place where any one can dominate the king. The era of thinking that with the large number of people and strong people is over is over." Wufeng, who was excited, sat upright on the big chair and smiled, his words were full of infinite dominance.
"Haha, Lord Li, the Mot is now under your command. I heard that Lord Li is righteous and does not care about his previous grudges and has provided Mot with a large amount of daily necessities and wealth support. This kind of demeanor is really admirable." The white-bearded old man sitting opposite Wufeng also nodded repeatedly, complimenting Wufeng with admiration.
"The words of Master Tan are bad. Didn't I say just now? The Mots are our close ally and are one family with our northwest. Naturally, the family will not speak two families. The one who initiated the war was the very few of their upper nobles who disregarded the interests of the people for their personal desires. They are not the people in the middle and lower classes. They are the real victims of being deceived and forced. Now they have difficulties, just like our own family has difficulties, our northwest side naturally has no choice." Wufeng was also thinking about the meaning of the other party's words. The two of the other party came together to make him really happy for a while, but he was happy that the old man with white beards was the target Wufeng was eager to see.
"Haha, Lord Li said that now, the herdsmen in Motte are grateful for the great kindness of the great virtues of the Lord. Lao I went from Kuche to the territory of Luobei from the territory of Luobei. Along the way, Motte herdsmen prayed and blessed you. Now the territory of Motte is already in a peaceful and prosperous life." The white-bearded old man was full of earnest expressions and was still praising Wufeng's merits, but the topic also began to turn to the topic: "However, Lao I met the army of the Lord on the border between the Motte and Luobei. I don't know that the situation in Motte has calmed down now, but the army of the Lord is still advancing west. Could there be any changes?"
"Oh, there is no change in Mot's territory, but Li wanted to take this opportunity to solve the problems of the countries in the Western Regions in one fell swoop." Wufeng actually guessed the purpose of the other party's arrival. At present, the special envoys from the countries in the Western Regions came to Qingyang and asked him to meet him all day long. Wufeng has always refused to meet him on the grounds that he had no time for official business, and all these things were pushed to Su Qin. The guy in front of him had a close connection with the powerful nobles of the countries in the Western Regions. It is naturally the most suitable for him to come forward at this moment.
The old man with white beard changed slightly. Unexpectedly, the other party made a blunt statement and said that he really wanted to use military forces against the countries in the Western Regions. What should I do? After laughing twice, the old man continued: "Mr. Li, is there any offensive behavior in the countries in the Western Regions that are worthy of your great power?"
"President Tan, you have lived in the Western Regions for a long time. I believe that there are many haters from the countries in the Western Regions towards me in the Northwest. It would be fine if you listen to the people, but some countries in power intend to provoke right and wrong, arouse hostility from the people, and even more, they confuse right and wrong, turn black and white, and maliciously attack me, which seriously affects the normal exchanges and trade exchanges between the two places. The specific persons, President Tan also understands who it is. Now, whether it is the Northwest, Northern Luzon or the Western Regions, economic exchanges are very close. If the people in power do their best to do things for their own selfish interests and block the development of economic and cultural integration in these three places, it is contrary to the historical trend. I think the general public will not tolerate it, and I will not let it go!" Li Wufeng smiled slightly and blurted out his words.
How could the old man with white beard not understand the meaning of Li Wufeng's words? The other party's aggressive aura had already made him feel that a war that would spread throughout the Western Regions could break out at any time. However, as the head of the Tianshan Sect, the Western Regions and the Northwest are the foundations of the Tianshan Sect. The power in the Western Regions and the leaders of the Tianshan Sect have a very close relationship with the leaders of the Tianshan Sect, so their entrustment naturally cannot be indifferent. Moreover, such a war is not in line with the interests of the Tianshan Sect. In his opinion, this war can also be avoided.
But from his identity and relationship with the other party, he could not ask or discuss further, because the face of the Northwest King had obviously shown an unhappy look. If he wanted to continue talking, he might have to serve tea to see him off. The old man with white beard practiced the world for a long time, immediately stopped obediently, coughed gently, but quietly slipped to the Taoist nun sitting beside him.
In fact, even during the conversation between Wufeng and the old man with white beard, Wufeng's eyes deliberately or unintentionally swept across the Taoist nun. After not seeing him for several months, the other party seemed to have added a little bit of outrageous spirit. His graceful figure was covered tightly by the thick Taoist robe. The eyes on his face that were opened and closed were clearly visible, with a hint of thoughtful worry.
"Mr. Li, what do you mean is that war is inevitable?" The graceful voice finally sounded, and the Taoist nun who had never spoken had a red lips slightly opened. The seductive charm made Wufeng feel aroused in his heart.
"Haha, Miss Leng is so serious. Whether the war can be avoided is not the northwest, but they. I cannot tolerate that I always aim at myself with a wide open bow behind me. This feeling is not good, so I hope to solve this problem once and for all. If the countries in the Western Regions can show enough sincerity, whether Li Wufeng is a war madman or a butcher, I don't want many people to lose their lives in the war, then it will be a kind of grief to the people on either side." Wufeng answered the other party slowly.
"Then my senior brother and I would like to ask how much of the scope of sincerity that the adults said is covered? Can you describe it in detail?" The apricot yellow Taoist robe wrapped around Leng Ruoxing further highlighted her elegance and dust. The silver bell-like voice was particularly pleasant, but the lyrics were as sharp as before.
"Well, this requires specific analysis of specific issues. If it is Loulan, we must have known the conditions and contents of our submission to them. It is not too much, right? Finally, the other four countries, Wusun has a special relationship with us. You can consider it separately. Beiga, Kuche and Gaochang. I think we should follow the principles we proposed to Loulan, but appropriate modifications can be made." Wufeng replied vaguely that the designation of diplomatic treaties is not his strength, but those are the work of Su Qin and Wang Liao. He only needs to master a little and minimize the threats brought to him by the countries in the Western Regions.
The old man with white beard showed a look of disappointment on his face. If Wufeng said it, wouldn’t it be that the Western Regions had no sovereignty and completely surrendered to the northwest, and there was no need for negotiation at all.
However, Leng Ruoxing was not discouraged. "Sir, I think this matter in the Western Regions can be completely resolved through negotiations, and it does not necessarily mean that all the forces are mentioned. Since Wusun Kingdom can live in harmony with the Northwest and form a close alliance, why can't other countries? But I think that I can't force the Western Regions too much. After all, the Western Regions are independent sovereign states, and their national characteristics are not much the same as those of us Tanghe people. If we want to completely connect them with the Northwest, I think that it can only be achieved through long-term economic and cultural integration. If we insist on blindly forcing it, it will only backfire."
Wu Feng was slightly stunned. He still underestimated this girl who made her feel itchy. Although he knew that her thoughts and eloquence were quite extraordinary, she still surprised her by pointing out the shortcomings of her current policies.
"Miss Leng, I have only really seen what it means to be a good-tongued person today. It was originally a plea for the countries of the Western Regions, but Li had become a consideration for the Northwest everywhere." Wufeng smiled and shook his head, "But, I don't see this way. You know that Li Zhi is not here. Whether it is Mot or the countries of the Western Regions, it is not the goal that Li pursues. However, the northwest is the rear of Li and is also the foundation of Li. We people in Tanghe have a saying that we can sleep on the side of the bed, how can we allow others to sleep? The countries of the Western Regions have repeatedly harassed me, and I don't have so much energy and time to accompany them to soak mushrooms. If I take action in the east and they make some small moves behind me, then wouldn't I become a tiger-raising and suffering and seeking trouble?"
"So, I don't want to talk nonsense with these guys anymore. Those who obey me will prosper, and those who oppose me will perish. If the countries in the Western Regions want to survive, they must accept my conditions and obey my leaders. I think Tie and Blood will teach these arrogant guys to understand what a real war is!" Speaking of this, Li Wufeng, whose face turned dark, had already shown his murderous intention.
