The news of Prince Mo's recent visit to Jiuzhou City can be said to have stirred up a thousand waves with one stone.
For ordinary people who do not know the true situation of Prince Mo and the second son of the Qin family, this is an out-of-reach high-level exchange. It is just a conversation piece after tea and dinner. Coupled with the precarious current situation of the southern province at this time, It also aroused speculation among the public that the leader of the Hesse people in the southern province must have reached the end of his rope and came to the federation to seek assistance.
For those officials who knew the secrets, they could feel the undercurrent behind this meeting.
The federal capital, Kyushu City.
Quinses Palace, Federal Cabinet.
The twelve people in the meeting at this time can be said to be the real talkers of the Federation.
Qin Nankai, the titular acting head of state, looked around at everyone and listened to the staff reciting documents from the Southern Provincial Council.
The meaning of the document is very clear: Prince Mo will arrive at the Southern Province Office in Kyushu soon
As the staff read out the contents of the document, a sarcastic smile appeared on Qin Nankai's face:
"This time, everyone's wishes should be fulfilled, Teacher Mo is coming!"
"You can tell me what you think!"
His tone was a little angry, but everyone present understood the reason. Well, the second young master Tan has always been somewhat reluctant to shake hands with Mo Ce and make peace with Mo Ce. Didn't this force everyone to write letters to Mo Ce, and they were written three times in a row? The letter of apology humbled the acting head of the federation and at the same time caused him to lose face.
It's understandable, the acting head of state is still young.
Prime Minister and father-in-law Clift Webster smiled:
"The hard work pays off, and Mu Zhi is finally willing to reconcile with our federation!"
"This is a good thing! This is the result of your hard work, Master. You must seize this opportunity."
Qin Nankai looked at his father-in-law and originally wanted to retaliate angrily, but found that his father-in-law had a different expression and glanced at him with a smile on his face.
After thinking about it for a while, Qin Nankai still held back his anger and said nothing.
Since Xue Chang took control of the tens of thousands of green troops in the federation, he also occupied the last seat of the twelve cabinet seats. When he heard that Mu Zhi was coming back, his face actually showed a real expression of joy.
As the representative of the Tan family, Tan Xicheng, one of the four half spirits, wore a mask on his head and a thick cloak to cover up his mutilated body. His eyes turned to Qin Nankai:
"I'm afraid we need to make further plans for this matter. After all, today is different from the past."
"Before, Unpredictable was Prince Hesse who held the southern province in his hands, but now? He is already a lost dog due to the New Party! Is it necessary for us to reconcile with him?"
"Should we consider detaining this unpredictable person?"
"Elder, no!" Xue Chang was the first to disagree.
Federal Speaker Nie Xinghe also waved his hands repeatedly: "If the elders do this, I'm afraid our federation will be ridiculed by the world."
Tan Nankai also snorted coldly.
He is extremely tired of this grandpa
During the battle at Kunsus Palace, he had to invite the four elders of his family to help him in order to seize the heir. After all, his father had been in a coma for many years, and he could still use the banner of focusing on the federal cause as an excuse. .
But who knew it would be like this now? The father of the federal head of state was dying, and these four bosses could not be sent away. Grandpa easily took back the position of the first elder of the Qin family. When Qin Nankai could not become the patriarch, he became the one who restricted him within the family. The powerful force gave Tan Nankai a headache.
When he heard his grandfather say this, Qin Nankai was extremely angry:
"You were the one who asked me to write a letter of apology in the first place! Now that I have finally reconciled with Mo Zhi, have you changed your mind again?"
"What should I do to satisfy you?"
Prime Minister Clift Webster quickly reminded him: "Sir, I am your mentor. You'd better not call him by his name directly. This goes against the principle of respecting your teacher."
Tan Nankai really wanted to roll his eyes.
The rest of the people were silent. Only Xue Chang nodded and echoed: "Young Master is right. It's really difficult for you."
However, Tan Xicheng didn't even look at Xue Chang, but analyzed and said to himself:
"What I mean is, sir, please tell me clearly!"
"Right now, there is chaos in the Southern Province, and Mo Zhi is willing to respond at this time, and even comes to visit in person. Haha, doesn't it mean that he is no longer able to cope with the situation in the Southern Province?"
"If we capture him now or kill him, we can use our troops to attack the Southern Province. The New Party is no match for us. This is a good opportunity to regain the Southern Province!"
"This opportunity is so rare!"
This is really an opportunity, this is indeed undeniable.
Regarding the previous forcing of Qin Nankai to shake hands with Prince Mo, of course it was not just because Mo Zhi was a talented person who could assist Qin Nankai in building the federation, but because of the real interests behind it - the trip to the south, one of the nine major provinces of the federation. The province is in other people's hands.
The Federation has been the master of the continent for thousands of years. Now that it has lost one of the nine provinces, it will of course want to take it back. This is the highest goal of the Federation today.
With the need to face Pandora at the same time, the Federation was unable to antagonize the southern tribes. Taking back the southern provinces under such circumstances was tantamount to wishful thinking, so they used a gentle attitude to let Tan Nankai negotiate peace with the unpredictable, hoping to use the lowest possible means. First lay some foundation for "peaceful recovery".
But now, the situation is indeed different.
When Qin Nankai heard this, he also pondered for a while, but the more he thought about it, the more the veins on his forehead beat. He turned to look at his grandfather and asked:
"Leave Unpredictable? Grandpa, you said it lightly. I just want to ask you, can you keep Unpredictable? No, Teacher Mo?"
"He is the one who can escape from the Grand Master, the one who can kill the number one inner demon!"
Tan Nankai gritted his teeth when he said these two sentences.
Tan Xicheng was slightly startled. He seemed to have forgotten the most important thing. If you want to hang a bell for a cat, you must first be able to hang it.
"This is indeed a bit difficult." Tan Xicheng calmed down, but still refused to give up the idea:
"So we have to plan carefully! Mu Zhi's current level should be the Qing level. Well, it is indeed risky to take action, but we can poison and assassinate. In short, we have to use unexpected means."
Prime Minister Clift Webster sighed: "If it could be so simple, I am afraid that Master Mo would not be alive today."
"Based on what I know about him, haha. These methods may be more difficult than killing him directly."
Xue Chang nodded repeatedly: "Yes, this person is unpredictable and will not fall for such a simple trap."
"But." Tan Xicheng still wanted to speak, but he saw Qin Nankai looking at him:
"Let me remind you again, Mu Zhi holds the Ring of Recovery in his hands, and that is the only thing that can restore my father!"
"You have to think carefully. No matter whether this move is successful or not, we will definitely break up. If we can't get the Ring of Recovery, what will my dad do?"
When he said these words, Tan Nankai was still filled with righteous indignation. This was not because he was angry with Tan Xicheng, but because when he mentioned his father, the head of state, he thought of the life he had spent during this period - it was like taking care of a child. I take care of my dad's food and daily life every day, isn't that right? Now I have to spend a lot of energy to keep him from sleeping in my bed at night.
Tan Xicheng also stopped talking.
Yes, we have to consider the situation of the head of state's son. We forgot about the Ring of Recovery. There is something in our hands that makes us afraid to take action. No wonder we dare to come alone again.
Well. However, as the father of the current head of state, the grandfather of the current acting head of state and the first elder of the Qin family, he could not admit his mistakes even if he was killed. So he looked at Qin Nankai and said in a stern tone:
"Remind me? Nan Kai, your tone is too rude! I am your grandfather!"
Tan Nankai was about to cry but had no tears.
alright, you win
When the federal chief judge next to him heard this, he clasped his hands together and looked extremely excited:
"Then, what should Mu Zhi come to talk about this time? No matter what, hahahaha, the relationship between us has eased, and we can ask him to heal the head of state."
"The head of state will return to his original position and return to his position of leading the federation!"
"Long live the Federation! Long live the head of the Federation, Qin Nandi."
Several people in the crowd showed the same smile.
Qin Nankai said he didn't want to talk anymore.
What the hell.
How did I end up in such a miserable state? I was forced to apologize to Mo Chou. Now that Mo Chou is here, I have to be forced to beg Mo Chou to heal my father. Well, what the hell, what if he really agrees to treat his father again? Cured. I will probably leave the position of head of state forever in this life.
This situation is so weird and outrageous. As people often say when chatting, no matter what happens, it will not be good for me, Qin Nankai.
Regarding the position of head of state, I, Qin Nankai, cannot do it no matter what, right? Iron god?
Prime Minister Clift Webster took over the topic: "This is a story for another day. Now our basic policy is set, which is to truly make peace with the unpredictable."
"What we want is nothing more than the Southern Province, and the second is to ask it to treat the head of state. Well, this is the first thing. Now that we have just begun to repair the relationship, naturally we cannot be too hasty and have to take it slowly. The second thing is, You can make a deal with the unpredictable."
"In short, just keep the original policy unchanged, Nan Kai, you still need to be honest with Mo Zhi, and work hard in the direction of truly turning conflicts into friendship."
"Okay!" Tan Nankai sighed.
I've known for a long time that I would be like this.
Well, before this meeting, I knew in my heart that Unpredictable was back, and the following days would be even more sad. It was true, and it was true. Now, in addition to serving my father, serving the old immortals like the Tan family, and serving all the federations in front of me, Cabinet members will have to wait for an unpredictable person in the future.
Am I a eunuch?
Fortunately, Tan Nankai had already made mental preparations and was too lazy to talk nonsense with this group of people, so he hid in silence.
Everyone was still discussing behind.
"Your Majesty the Prime Minister is right, the southern provinces can start to develop slowly."
"It's just that if you ask Mo Zhi to treat the head of state, I'm afraid that besides Nan Kai's attentiveness. Um, it was a slip of the tongue. Don't take it personally. Nan Kai. I mean, if you want Mo Zhi to take action, I'm afraid you really have to pay something."
"Yes, it's a deal."
"Isn't Mozhui coming here just to ask for help? How about we use this as a bargaining chip? If we want our federation to help send troops to quell the rebellion, we must first treat the head of state."
"Wonderful. Your Majesty."
"This is the best choice for us after careful planning." The chief judge chuckled.
Prime Minister Clift Webster glanced at Qin Nankai and saw that his son-in-law had been speechless. He couldn't help but shook his head secretly and looked at the justice:
"This is wrong!"
"How can swords and soldiers be easily moved? You know, once the cannon is fired, there is ten thousand taels of gold! If our federation helps send troops so easily, wouldn't we be pushing ourselves into the quagmire?"
"Be smart, everyone! We have to give it a try at the lowest cost. This is the most cost-effective option. Well, I mean, in addition to Nankai's respect for the unpredictable, we have to pay the smallest actual benefit. "
"for example."
Prime Minister Clift looked at Qin Nankai: "We can give him the title of 'National Master'. It's just a title anyway. Now the entire federation has already called him National Master Mo. Haha, we have already used him." The title he obtained will be given to him without spending any money on the treasury."
"Also, if you want to do your best, Nan Kai, why don't you grant the Dukeship of Unpredictable, hehehehe."
Nie Xinghe's mind turned very quickly and he immediately understood what his old partner meant: "What a great idea! Granting the title of duke does not require granting land. After all, Mozhi already controls all the territory of the southern province."
"Mobi should understand what this means. Well, it is to make this matter a reality and no one can say anything. At the same time, Mobi can see our sincerity."
"Anyway, we can't get it back from the Southern Province. It's just like issuing a legal certificate to Mo Zhi."
This time, everyone really agreed.
Yes, this is the lowest price that can be thought of now.
Mozhi controls the southern province, so the southern province will be given to him as a fief, and he will also be given the seat and title of duke. In fact, the federation has not paid a cent, and it is really equivalent to issuing a certificate. And can express enough sincerity.
When Prime Minister Clift Webster looked at Qin Nankai, Qin Nankai waved his hand weakly:
"Just make your decision and do as you say."
The meeting has adjourned.
Prime Minister Clift Webster turned around and did not leave.
Talked secretly with son-in-law again.
Prime Minister Clift Webster looked very solemn and reminded in a low voice:
"Nan Kai, you have to know how to make excuses and compromise. At least you still have to do some superficial work."
"Well, I must remind you that no matter how the plan is formulated, we must work together to prevent Unpredictable from treating your father!"
