King Guangxuan didn't take it to heart, nodded slightly, and then stepped onto the carriage!
The carriage swayed all the way towards the palace.
Arrived outside the palace gate.
Zuo Ya opened the car curtain: "Your Majesty, we're here..."
King Guangxuan got out of the car and followed Zuo Ya into the inner courtyard of the palace. He was immediately attracted by the majestic palace in front of him. Although he has seen it from the outside before, the difference between the two is really too big. From the outside, it is just a little shocking, but when he really goes there, he will find that every detail is full of There was a different aura, as if a real dragon was quietly entrenched there!
"Why!"
King Guangxuan felt some regret in his heart. If he had known that Dazhou was so prosperous, he would not have allowed that prodigal son to do those things. If we could always be on good terms with Dazhou, Nanzhao would definitely be able to have plenty of food and clothing today!
It's a pity that now they can only be forced to accept some conditions.
Come to the Yangxin Hall.
Zhou Mi was already waiting there quietly, and there was a faint scent of sandalwood floating in the entire Yangxin Hall. This sandalwood scent is not easy to feel in ordinary places. It is purple gold and ancient sandalwood. Even if the princes and nobles want to burn it, they must carefully weigh it!
"Greetings to Your Majesty!"
At this time, Zuo Ya entered the Yangxin Hall, hurriedly knelt down on the ground, and bowed respectfully!
And King Guangxuan also folded his hands in front of him.
"Greetings to Your Majesty!"
"Are you King Guangxuan of Nanzhao?" Zhou Mi raised his head.
At that moment, King Guangxuan felt as if his heart had been hit by something, his body was trembling slightly, and his heart was beating thumpingly. Isn't this a little too good to see? It's not that he has never seen beautiful women, but all the women in the world combined are not as good as the person in front of him.
Is this the empress of Zhou Dynasty?
Although it seems that the empress of Dazhou is not particularly beautiful, she still has that stunning look, that kind of temperament, that kind of feeling of overlooking the world. This is something he has never seen from anyone else!
"yes!"
King Guangxuan nodded.
"I originally did not intend to simply let Nanzhao go. You should understand that attacking Nanzhao is not simple. It is just because of Nanzhao's previous behavior! There is a deeper calculation in it. Once If the war doesn’t start, then many of my things won’t be able to be handled smoothly!”
"..."
King Guangxuan was speechless for a moment. He only felt that he seemed to be completely trapped in Zhou Mi's whirlpool, and there was no way to resist it.
"yes!"
After a long time, King Guangxuan nodded in agreement.
As expected of an empress, everything she says is right!
"However, one of my subordinates argued hard and sent letters thousands of miles away, carefully analyzing the pros and cons with me, and warned me that we need to put the people first!"
"It is precisely because of this that I am willing to give Nanzhao a chance."
"In the past few days, you should have heard a lot of news in the court, and you have also found a lot of people, wanting to come to me to ask for mercy! But it has no effect. The results I want to achieve , it must be obtained. If not, it is better to waste people and money once and avoid future troubles forever!"
Zhou Mi's voice was very soft.
"Your Majesty, I understand your concerns. Your Majesty can rest assured that Nanzhao will accept all the conditions you have proposed!" As he spoke, King Guangxuan let out a long breath, with a hint of helplessness in his eyes: " I just implore Your Majesty to leave some thin face for the Nanzhao royal family!"
"I have already given you face. The council only has the right to veto and does not have the right to participate in decision-making. After they veto, they will report your decision to me. Similarly, the council rotates every five years and has a total of nine members. Three of them are subjects of the Nanzhao Kingdom, and six are subjects of the Great Zhou Dynasty!"
"Only in this way can the normal operation of the council be guaranteed!"
Speaking of this, Zhou Mi's face showed a hint of helplessness. She really didn't expect that Su Chen would make such a suggestion. Originally, he didn't even want to stay with the royal family of Nanzhao Kingdom, but in this way, it would be easy for him to face Nanzhao Kingdom's counterattack.
The suggestion put forward by Su Chen is just right. With the council, it is equivalent to giving the royal family some face and dignity. They will not resist so obviously. Some policies that do not have many drawbacks will not matter if they are actually implemented. Big deal!
But if it happens, it will not be conducive to Zhou's policy.
The discussion group can raise objections as soon as possible.
And organize this policy in a unified manner, and then hand it over to Shendu for decision-making.
The royal family of Nanzhao Kingdom definitely does not want to break up with Zhou Dynasty now. In this case, they can only be forced to accept the council. The Nanzhao royal family still plays many roles, but the council has become a big hand on the neck of the Nanzhao royal family.
He could be rendered speechless at any time!
"That's right!"
King Guangxuan nodded slightly, knowing that he had no choice now. As long as he shows the slightest dissatisfaction, I am afraid Zhou Mi will immediately order An Nanhou to continue the attack.
In fact, it is more in line with Da Zhou's interests to completely capture Nanzhao, or in other words, it is more in line with Zhou Mi's interests!
"Okay, if that's the case, bring up the document. I'll put the seal on it myself!" A slight smile appeared on Zhou Mi's lips: "Since we have already arrived in the Great Zhou Dynasty, why not stay in the divine capital? Stay for a while and fully appreciate the prosperity of the divine capital!"
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
…
Fan Jin's eyes showed a bit of solemnity. He had been trying to repair the road, but it was not that easy. It rains a lot around Nanzhao, so it will be very troublesome to repair the roads.
And there will be many obstacles.
It took nearly half a month before the road was repaired. But there was only this way, and Fan Jin didn't dare to attack at all.
"The imperial edict arrives..."
Just when Fan Jin was looking a little angry, he suddenly heard a loud voice coming from outside!
"Annan Hou Fan Jin, accept the order!"
The loud voice reached Fan Jin's ears.
Fan Jin took a deep breath and straightened his armor: "There's nothing wrong with it!"
"Master Marquis, no problem!" The counselor next to him laughed, and then continued: "I just don't know why your Majesty would suddenly issue an imperial edict at this time!"
"I always have a bad feeling!" Fan Jin said coldly.
