The Queen put the jade cup in her hand aside and looked at Hu Yanzhuo with a frown and bright eyes.
"King Huyan, as the saying goes, no matter what, you don't have to go to the Three Treasures Palace. Now that the road is blocked by heavy snow, the three of you traveled thousands of miles to come to the Kingdom of Jin. Do you think there is something very important to do? Could it be that you have already captured the Wangting Yitong Grassland!"
Hu Yanzhuo looked at the Queen with a hint of obsession in her eyes. He came back to his senses when he heard the Queen's voice, and then realized that he was a little distracted.
Yan Yu and Yan Yu pretended not to see anything and drank the tea in their hands comfortably.
The two of them had no intention of laughing at Hu Yanzhuo, because the queen's appearance was so stunning that it would be strange if Hu Yanzhuo didn't react at all.
Hu Yanyu himself had to admit that the feeling of astonishment when he first met the Queen was still fresh in his memory. When he was young, he traveled around the world for many years. Whether it was the Great Dragon, the Kingdom of Jin or the Turks, he saw more than thousands of women. .
But there is no other woman who can match the beauty of the Queen.
The beauty of the Queen is unlike any other mortal woman, leaving no one with the slightest feeling of blasphemy.
Hu Yanyu suddenly looked a little strange and chuckled. The sudden appearance of a handsome boy named Liu Mingzhi made him understand that the Queen was actually just a mortal.
A mortal who is as beautiful as a fairy!
Hu Yanzhuo eased his awkward expression: "Queen Jin, I came all the way for one thing. As for the capture of the Royal Court, it is far away. Although the Huyan tribe has now divided the east and west of the Royal Court, the Royal Court still stands. How could it be so easy for the Turks to capture it for hundreds of years!"
The Queen nodded understandingly: "In that case, I wonder what the purpose of King Huyan's visit is?"
Hu Yanzhuo took out a book with letters written in both the Jin and Turkic languages and placed it in front of the Queen: "Queen Jin, please see that one and a half months ago, Dalong's officials and merchants suddenly purchased a total of eighty yuan from the caravan managed by the Huyan tribe. Dried meat worth ten thousand dollars!”
The queen picked up the letter and read it for a while, looking at Hu Yanzhuo in confusion: "Dalong is a vast territory with many people, so eight hundred thousand silver worth of dried meat is nothing, right?"
Hu Yanzhuo stared at the Queen quietly: "Is it true that the Queen has not investigated any rumors?"
The Queen pondered for a while and shook her head: "In the past six months, after Dalong repelled the Westerners, he didn't make any big moves except for one time to adjust the defense!"
Hu Yanzhuo shook his head: "There is no big move, but Queen, aren't you curious why the 200,000 troops deployed for defense did not return to defense?"
The Queen was startled and her eyes shone brightly. During these days, she had been paying attention to the people's livelihood issues in the Kingdom of Jin. After getting the information about sweet potatoes from Bai Ling, the Queen asked the caravan to purchase sweet potatoes, a high-yielding crop, on a large scale.
In the past two years, not only Dalong has been developing, but the new population of the Kingdom of Jin has tripled, and it will only take seven or eight years for them to grow into half-grown young men.
The population of tens of millions is a population that even the emperors of the Jin Kingdom have not reached for generations, and they all rely on food like sweet potatoes.
The Queen's mood did not relax because of this. She knew very well that the Kingdom of Jin was recuperating and Dalong would not stand still and wait for the Kingdom of Jin to catch up.
The Queen tried her best to recall the information about Dalong Ganzhou and Suzhou in her mind, and her eyes were shocked: "Has Dalong soldiers sent to the Western Regions?"
Hu Yanzhuo looked at the Queen in astonishment. For a moment, he couldn't tell whether the Queen was pretending to be confused or if she really thought of it in the blink of an eye.
If it were the latter, how alert would the Queen’s state of mind be!
Hu Yanzhuo nodded slightly: "According to the news obtained from the Nahanche tribe, Dalong raised 400,000 troops to conquer the Western Regions! 200,000 main battle troops and 200,000 auxiliary troops left Yumen Pass in the west two months ago! "
"The person in charge won't be Liu Mingzhi, the former governor of Dalong Northern Territory, right?"
"Uh...that's right!"
Hu Yanzhuo himself didn't know when all the power of speech had gone to the Queen's side, and for a while he could only nod in response.
The Queen nodded with a complicated expression: "I wonder why I haven't had any information about him for so long. It turns out he went to conquer the Western Regions!"
Enemy, aren't you most afraid of war? Why did you take the initiative to raise troops to conquer the countries in the Western Regions?
While the queen was thinking about it, she suddenly thought of the arrival of Hu Yanzhuo and the others, and instantly understood the intention of Hu Yanzhuo and the others.
"King Huyan is worried that once Liu Mingzhi succeeds in conquering the Western Regions, the Hetao Grassland and Heshuo Grassland between Ganzhou and Suzhou will return to the hands of Dalong!"
Hu Yanzhuo looked at the Queen in amazement. He could not have imagined that the Queen could guess so many things just by thinking about it without saying anything after he arrived.
"Yes, Queen, you also know that although the land of Heshuo and Hetao is still under the control of the Turkic Royal Court, I believe that sooner or later it will become the territory of the Huyan tribe. If it is taken away by the dragon The advantage of our Turkic cavalry will be gone."
"Hui'er, get the map!"
"yes!"
Hui'er put the map on the table and stepped aside.
The Queen's green finger slid over the map for a while, starting from the locations of the countries in the Western Regions and finally clicked on the location of the Hetao: "The main purpose of Dalong's expedition to the Western Regions may be the Hetao, and there are two natural horse farms with abundant pasture in Heshuo. ! As long as we take over the two lands from the east and west of the Western Region, it will be like the fat on the mouth of the dragon!"
"The queen is indeed very smart. She can see my king's worries at a glance. Once these two places return to the hands of the dragon and the Turks lose, the war horses of the Jin Kingdom will also be suppressed!"
The Queen nodded with a gloomy face: "What is King Huyan's purpose this time?"
Hu Yanzhuo's face suddenly turned red and he looked at the Queen in embarrassment: "I have discussed it with my subordinates, and if I try to interfere with it, it will definitely trigger a warning from the dragon. Now the Huyan tribe is fighting fiercely with the Wang Ting tribe, and it is impossible to bear it. The dragon and the royal court are attacking from both sides!"
"so?"
"The Huyan tribe is willing to forever be friends with the Jin Kingdom and the Qin and Jin Dynasties. They will unite as one and conquer the royal court to unify the north. They will be evenly matched with Dalong!"
The Queen looked at Hu Yanzhuo with surprise in her eyes: "It is a good thing to marry Qin and Jin. Yan Yu has already married Prince Huyan. I don't know that the princess in your department is willing to marry to Jinlai? Is it possible? Is it Princess Yunyao?"
"No...no...yes...yes..."
Yan Yu looked at the Queen with a strange smile: "Sister, what Brother Wang means is that you and Brother Wang will form a good marriage between Qin and Jin Dynasties. Dajin and Tujue will become one and together we can defeat Dalong!"
There was a trace of astonishment on the Queen's majestic appearance, and she didn't realize what Yan Yu meant for a moment.
After Yan Yu said this, Hu Yanzhuo's mood calmed down: "My brothers and sisters are right. Although the Huyan tribe is not as rich as the Jin Kingdom, it is not far behind. You are the king of a country. Although I have never established a country. He is also the king of a region, and as long as the queen agrees, I am willing to marry you with a betrothal gift of 300,000 Turkic horses!"
The Queen's jade knuckles were clenched white as she looked at Hu Yanzhuo across from her with neither sadness nor happiness: "Three hundred thousand war horses?"
"Yes! With 300,000 war horses, you are the only one in the world who is worthy of such a betrothal gift!"
"Three hundred thousand war horses. I didn't expect that I am worth three hundred thousand war horses. Haha... I am so flattered!"
