"Hey, I'm here."
Liu Mingzhi smiled lightly, shook a few pieces of rice paper in his hand, raised his head and pursed his lips at the six Dawan kings.
"Rong Rong, the matter of preparing a retirement place for the six of them here in Gumo Kingdom will be left to you, the king of Gumo Kingdom."
When Gumo Rongrong heard this, she glanced at King Dayuan and King Wusun with a strange expression.
Immediately, the beauty turned around slightly and tugged on Young Master Liu's sleeves in a subtle manner.
"Husband."
Young Master Liu looked slightly stunned, and looked up at Gumo Rongrong with doubtful eyes.
"Rong Rong, what's wrong?"
Gu Mo Rongrong coughed twice, suppressed her voice and asked, "Husband, are you really arranging a retirement place for the six of them? Or are you arranging a retirement place like that for them?" ?”
Listening to the beauty's question, Mr. Liu frowned in confusion.
"Rong Rong, what are you talking about?
What is the real place to retire? Such a retirement place?
Husband, why don’t I quite understand what you mean? "
Seeing her husband's confused reaction, Gumo Rongrong rolled her eyes angrily, raised her right hand in a vague gesture and made a gesture under her neck.
"Is it really a way for them to enjoy their old age with peace of mind? Or is it that kind of old-age care?"
Liu Mingzhi saw the beauty wiping her neck and reacted immediately.
He looked at the beautiful woman with questioning eyes and couldn't help but laugh.
"Hehehe, hehehe, so Rongrong, that's what you meant."
When Gumo Rongrong saw that her husband understood what she meant, she nodded hurriedly.
"Yeah, yeah, that's right.
Husband, you have to make it clear to me before I can send someone to prepare.
Otherwise, if you do something wrong, I will not be able to give you an explanation. "
Liu Mingzhi chuckled and nodded, casually placing a few pieces of rice paper on the table.
"Rong Rong, of course we should choose a place with beautiful mountains and clear waters for them, so that they can live a good life.
Just because they could come to Gumo Country to pay homage to my husband as soon as possible after receiving my husband's order, they would be able to avoid death. "
When Gumo Rongrong heard what her husband said, she nodded with clarity.
"Yeah, I understand.
After husband, you have finished handling the things here, I will immediately send someone to prepare for these things. "
Liu Mingzhi nodded slightly, smiled softly and patted the back of the beauty's hand.
"Okay, you go back and sit down first."
"Hey, I know."
After Liu Mingzhi opened his arms and stretched his body, he looked sadly at King Dayuezhi and King Jingjue, who were still kneeling on the ground, and waved gently.
"You don't have to kneel anymore, please get up."
"Thank you, Your Majesty the Emperor. Long live my Emperor."
"Each of you, please wipe the blood on your forehead and take your seats again."
"I obey, thank you very much, His Majesty the Emperor."
Liu Mingzhi looked at the six kings of Dayuan walking towards their respective seats, and glanced at the other kings of the Western Regions with a smile.
“I hope you can learn from what happened today.
As the saying goes, the work of those who came before us is the teacher of those who come after us.
Today, the affairs of the six kings, King Wusun, King Xiuxun, and King Dayuan, are before your eyes. This is a warning to you.
In the future, if one day a situation similar to that between the Dawan Kingdom and the Dayuezhi Kingdom happens again within your country, it will happen again.
Then, your future ending may not be as good as that of King Dayuan, King Jingjue and the others.
I have lived for most of my life, and I like to interact with smart people the most.
As the kings of a country, you are naturally smart people.
As a smart person, you must not do anything stupid!
In that case, it would not be a good thing for me or you.
That’s all I’ve said, do you understand? "
After listening to Young Master Liu's long and meaningful speech, the kings of the twenty kingdoms in the Western Regions stood up in a hurry and saluted in unison.
"I understand and will obey His Majesty the Emperor's teachings."
Liu Mingzhi chuckled, nodded, and waved his hand directly.
"You don't have to be so formal, just keep sitting."
"Thank you, His Majesty the Emperor."
The kings of more than twenty countries in the Western Regions all bowed before sitting down again.
Liu Mingzhi breathed a sigh of relief and waved directly to Yun Yingjie.
"Cousin, come here."
"yes."
Yun Yingjie responded loudly, walked quickly to Young Master Liu and bowed.
"Cousin, what are your orders?"
Liu Mingzhi stood up directly from the chair, turned around and picked up the tray on the table with the royal seal and the edict of succession.
"Cousin, now that cousin Zhang Mo has not returned yet, as the Deputy Protector of the Anxi Protectorate, you are responsible for taking charge of all government affairs, big and small, in the countries in the Western Regions.
King Dayuan and King Dayuezhi have already prepared the edicts for passing the throne.
Therefore, all matters concerning the appointment of new kings in the six kingdoms of Dayuan, Dayue Zhiguo, Dayuan, Jingjue, Xiuxunguo, and Kangju are all under the full supervision of your Protectorate.
I won't ask you how to organize the specific matters.
You, the officials of the Anxi Protectorate, have a careful discussion with King Dayuan and the six of them who have written the successor in the edict of passing the throne.
Then, the two parties coordinate to deal with the new king's accession to the throne. "
As Liu Mingzhi spoke, he handed the tray in front of Yun Yingjie with a faint smile.
"Cousin, don't let me down."
Yun Yingjie took the tray from Young Master Liu's hand respectfully and nodded vigorously.
"Brother Wei understands. Brother Wei promises to handle everything properly and not let you down, cousin."
"Hahaha, so good, so good.
By the way, one more thing. "
"Cousin, please tell me. I am all ears for my brother."
"After the new king of the Six Kingdoms ascends the throne, you send people to bring their six princesses, concubines and others to Gumo Kingdom so that their families can be reunited here.
The six of them stayed in Gumo Country for retirement. It would be too lonely without their family to accompany them.
This young master does not want to do the kind of thing that would cause his wife to break up and live in two places. "
"Cousin Shengming, I understand.
After brother Wei had handled the major and minor matters regarding the new king's enthronement, he immediately sent troops and horses to escort some family members of the six of them to their side. "
"Well, just watch and deal with it.
By the way, there’s one more thing you should remember, cousin. "
"Cousin, tell me."
"If the family members of the six of them are willing to come, let them come. If they don't want to come, don't force them."
"Yes, Brother Wei understands.
At that time, the Brotherhood will respect their personal wishes and handle these matters properly. "
Liu Mingzhi chuckled and nodded, picking up the tea on the table to moisten his throat.
"Now that we have finished talking about the affairs of King Wusun and the Six Kingdoms, we should also talk about the affairs of our Dalong Caravan."
"I'm all ears brother."
Liu Mingzhi placed the tea cup in his hand on the table, casually pulled out the tobacco bag from his waist, and skillfully lit a pot of tobacco.
"call!"
After Master Liu slowly exhaled a puff of smoke, he looked towards the cloudless blue sky with a western look.
"Deputy Protector of Anxi Protectorate Yun Yingjie obeys the order."
Yun Yingjie quickly placed the tray in his hand on the table beside him and saluted Young Master Liu with a respectful expression.
"Your Majesty Yun, listen to your orders."
"Preach my will.
A letter to all the peoples of the Western Regions.
Within the thirty-six countries of the Western Regions, there are the Great Dragon caravans, the caravans of the countries in the Western Regions, and the caravans of the countries in the far west.
Anyone who suffers injustice can go to the Parthian Protectorate to file a complaint anytime, anywhere.
If a large caravan bullies a small caravan, once the evidence is confirmed, all the goods of the large caravan will be confiscated immediately and all the goods of the small caravan will be compensated.
The owner or person in charge of a large caravan who violates the laws of the dragon will be punished with thirty sticks and a fine of ten thousand taels of silver.
In addition, all caravans who are oppressed by local officials in the Western Regions and are in trouble can also go to the Governor's Office to lodge a complaint.
Once the evidence is confirmed, the local government official will be immediately dismissed from his post and investigated.
All losses to the caravan were compensated by the local king at three times the price of all the goods in the caravan.
Under the prevailing government decree.
All caravans who are opportunistic and deliberately make false accusations based on laws and regulations with the intention of profiting from them.
Once verified, the decision will be made.
From the head of the Shangdu family, or the person in charge, to the caravan driver and servants.
Regardless of origin or status, they will be punished with the same crime.
Admire this. "
After Yun Yingjie listened to Liu Dashao's words, he bowed with excitement.
"Your majesty is wise, long live my emperor."
"besides."
"Cousin, tell me."
"At the same time, we inform all the people in the Western Regions that we can supervise all caravans in the Western Regions.
If you see something happening in the last decree, you can report it to the Protectorate at any time, or write a letter to report it.
Once verified, a reward of ten thousand taels of silver will be given immediately.
Of course, as there are rewards, there should also be punishments.
Anyone who deliberately makes false accusations for the sake of their own selfish interests, or those who deliberately frame someone up.
Once confirmed, he will be beaten to death on the spot and all his property will be confiscated.
As the saying goes, a brave man must be rewarded.
However, in order to prevent young people from deliberately causing chaos, they should also be severely punished.
Only when rewards and punishments are clear is the best policy. "
"Your Majesty is wise, Your Majesty is wise."
At this moment, Yun Yingjie couldn't be happier.
With these political orders formulated by his cousin, it would be much easier for him to govern the countries in the Western Region.
Liu Mingzhi looked at Yun Yingjie with a smile on his face and breathed a sigh of relief.
"Cousin Yingjie."
"I'm here for my brother."
"Don't rush to inform the people of the thirty-six countries in the Western Regions about the two decrees that I just mentioned.
After punishing those caravans who have made big mistakes, they will then make an announcement. "
Yun Yingjie looked slightly startled. After reacting, he thought for a moment and understood what Mr. Liu meant.
"Yes, brother, I understand.
Based on the situation here, I will choose a suitable time for my cousin to announce your decree to the world. "
"Hahaha, that's very good."
"cousin."
"I'm here for my brother."
"It's getting late, so you should go to the post house to rest first.
In the evening, I will arrange a banquet to entertain you. "
Upon hearing this, Yun Yingjie reached out to pick up the tray on the table and bowed respectfully. "
"Cousin, please excuse me for the sake of my brother. We will meet again tonight."
Liu Mingzhi nodded happily and gestured with his fists.
"Go slowly, don't send me away."
Yun Yingjie nodded with a faint smile, turned around and walked straight to the officials at the Anxi Protector's Mansion.
Liu Mingzhi gently took a puff of dry smoke and waved his hands to the kings of the Western Regions with a smile.
"You have been traveling all the way, and I think you are all exhausted both physically and mentally.
Now, everything is over. Let's go back to the posthouse to rest.
In the evening, I will hold a banquet in the palace, and then I will welcome you and wash away the dust. "
When the kings of the Western Regions heard this, they immediately stood up and bowed.
"I obey my orders, I will retire first."
"Creek."
"Hey, I'm here."
"Hehehe, go and give your husband a gift for your Yingjie cousin."
Yun Xiaoxi's pretty face was happy and she nodded hurriedly.
"Yeah, yeah, I'll go right away."
Immediately, she lifted up her skirt and ran straight to Yun Yingjie to catch up.
"Fifth brother, wait for me."
Liu Mingzhi looked at Yun Xiaoxi's retreating figure, chuckled and shook his head.
"Willow Pine."
"The little one is here."
Liu Mingzhi leaned over and knocked out the ashes from the smoke pot under his feet. He smiled lightly and waved in the direction of everyone's retreat.
"Um."
"Yes, I will obey, little one."
Liu Song saluted with a smile and immediately chased in the direction where everyone left.
Liu Mingzhi rolled up his tobacco pipe, raised his arms high and stretched.
"Rong Rong."
"I'm here."
"It's getting late, and my husband is a little hungry. Please have lunch delivered."
"Yeah, I understand."
Liu Mingzhi breathed a long sigh of relief, turned around and walked straight into the main hall.
Upon seeing this, Qi Yun, the Queen, Chen Jie, their sisters, and the little cutie all started to follow.
After half a day.
Under the guidance of Liu Song, the king of Loulan Kingdom, Qiao Loulina, with a pretty face that was both excited and nervous, walked into the main hall where Young Master Liu and the others were.
Liu Song stopped and saluted Young Master Liu who was sitting in the main seat.
"Master, the distinguished guest you asked me to invite has arrived."
Qiaolou Lina stood behind Liu Song, looking at Young Master Liu with excitement and embarrassment in her eyes.
"Brother Liu."
Liu Mingzhi stood up from the chair and walked towards Qiaolou Lina with a smile on his face.
Looking at the pretty and graceful lady in front of him, Young Master Liu sighed with emotion.
"well."
"Girl, you have grown up."
Listening to Young Master Liu's emotional tone, Qiaolou Lina's watery eyes instantly turned red.
"Brother Liu, do you still remember my little sister?"
"Hahaha, silly girl, of course my brother still remembers you.
I think back then, girl, you, the king of Loulan Kingdom, were supported by my brother and me.
In this case, brother, how could I forget this little girl like you!
In the blink of an eye, we have not seen each other for more than ten years.
The little girl back then has now grown into a tall and graceful girl. "(End of chapter)
