Although Narisong didn't believe it, he also knew that Tsarist Russia was getting stronger and stronger, so he began to call the tribesmen and once again strengthen their defenses and traps.
Zhai Shiqing, however, fell into deep thought.
Originally, the task assigned to her by the young master was to assist these Chukchi people to fight against the Tsarist Russians. It was best to create some threat to the Tsarist Russians and make them feel headaches and anxious.
But apparently...
Things are not that simple.
Although these Chukchi people are very powerful in combat, their combat effectiveness is limited to their own doorsteps. Once they are allowed to enter that wide area, there is no doubt that they will be the living targets of the Russian army! Therefore, we want this group of Chukchi people to pose a threat to Tsarist Russia...
Then we must find a way!
Think of ways to!
Zhai Shiqing fell into deep thought.
She also realized that this should be a test given to her by the young master.
A test to see if she can adapt to different situations.
She took a deep breath.
Although they had just experienced a war, these Chukchi people were still optimistic. They were running and hosting banquets for their people. Many of them had even started singing and dancing. What kind of people are these? It seems that the Cossack cavalry, having harassed them for more than a hundred years, has made them extremely tough.
The Chukotka people were very hospitable and treated them with the highest courtesy.
The more this happened, the more Zhai Shiqing felt that she should lead these people to victory.
…
When Ruslan returned to the small town where he was stationed, he was furious and extremely embarrassed.
"Did you lose again?"
"Hahahaha, get used to it, get used to it!"
"Looking at his depressed look, he must have been dealt a terrible blow by the Chukchi people again!"
"Shh... keep your voice down!"
When he returned to the city, he heard such discussions along the way!
Bastard!
presumptuous!
He wanted to pull out his knife and cut off the heads of these gossips!
but……
He has been warned by the Tsar more than a dozen times for killing innocent people...
calm!
He needs to calm down!
He is now the governor of a town and is no longer the bandit leader before!
again?
Has he failed many times?
His blood pressure suddenly shot up.
"Call someone, call someone!"
He couldn't be more angry.
Today, these Chukchi people soon became his trophies!
Blame those black devils who suddenly appeared!
devil?
He doesn't believe there are devils in this world. If there is, it will definitely be their Cossack cavalry!
He started shaking people.
He must attack again to find out the reality!
…
Li Hyuna was waiting eagerly at the gate of the capital. Liu Zheng was about to arrive. For her at this moment, the air in this world was sweet.
Today's Lee Hyuna has obviously been carefully dressed up.
At this time, Li Hyuna is no longer the vase she was before, but the real chief assistant of the Li Dynasty.
She is mature and steady, coupled with her incredible looks and gorgeous clothes.
With all the stars shining over the moon, she was already the most dazzling woman in the Li Dynasty.
At this moment, she was already thinking about the beautiful scene of having a drink with Liu Zheng and talking about family and state affairs.
However, the appearance of a person broke Li Xuanya's fantasy.
Xie Chan.
Seeing Xie Chan next to Liu Zheng, Li Xuanya smiled bitterly.
Indeed, the young couple are so inseparable that there is no time to spend alone together.
Xie Chan was very happy when she saw Li Hyuna. The two of them felt like sisters when they were in Long Yan. Xie Chandu suggested that Liu Zheng directly bring the eldest princess of the Li Dynasty into his house.
so……
When Li Hyuna faced Xie Chan like this, the haze in her heart was naturally swept away.
I am no longer a child...
National affairs are the most important thing.
She regards Li Chao's future as her lifelong goal.
She just wanted to bury Liu Zheng's deep emotions in her heart.
"Sister Princess!"
She held Xie Chan's hand and smiled sweetly.
The two girls chatted for a while, and then it was Liu Zheng's turn.
After seeing Liu Zheng, Li Xuanya originally intended to treat him to a state banquet, but Liu Zheng turned him down.
With constant crises at home, he has no intention of enjoying his food and drink in a foreign land.
"Princess, oh, no, I should call you Prime Minister now..."
"Master Liu, don't call me Princess or Prime Minister. They are all members of my family, so please call me Hyuna."
Li Xuanya said with a smile.
Although she tried her best to suppress her emotions, her heartbeat started to accelerate when she saw Liu Zheng up close again...
She can't forget that Liu Zheng took her along the way, from Longyan back to Li Dynasty...
She can't forget that Liu Zheng was in the Li Dynasty and turned the tide. She can't forget that Liu Zheng went south with her and his mother, and they helped each other along the way...
Hearing this, Liu Zheng also smiled. In his impression, Li Xuanya was a serious person, but now she was so polite. It seemed that her six months as Prime Minister had really made her mature a lot.
"Okay, Hyuna, I really want to thank you for this crisis in our Longyan. If it weren't for your navy's intervention, the development direction of our Longyan Liaodong would still be unknown."
Liu Zheng thanked him solemnly.
"Master Liu, what are you talking about? In the past, our Li Dynasty was on the verge of destruction. It was your Excellency who led the army to stabilize the situation. Even a drop of kindness can be repaid by a spring, let alone such a great favor to save the country."
Li Xuanya said quickly.
"That's different. The Japanese country is just a bunch of puppies... But what you are facing is the great power Tsarist Russia, which is a real hungry wolf! To be able to attack them, you must have withstood considerable pressure. Don't worry, I, Liu Zheng, I am not a person who refuses to repay a favor. I, Long Yan, will be responsible for the military expenses of your Li Dynasty this time. You can order someone to compile a list and send it to Liangzhou. The money will arrive in the capital soon."
Liu Zheng insisted.
"Then thank you Mr. Liu. With this money, we can silence the opposition!"
Li Xuanya said happily.
Although the Li Dynasty won a great victory in the North Korea-Russia naval battle, the military expenditure was quite large. For the Li Dynasty, which had just emerged from the haze of war and was in urgent need of a large amount of funds for construction, it was a very huge expense.
Some Western parties in the Li Dynasty parliament used this as an excuse to attack Li Xuanya, and some members even proposed that Li Xuanya should step down!
Li Xuanya is also under great pressure, but as soon as Liu Zheng's funds arrive, the pressure can disappear in an instant.
"In addition, Long Yan will also provide guarantees to the Li Dynasty. If the Li Dynasty is threatened by Tsarist Russia, Long Yan will definitely help with all his strength. After I return to China, he will provide some advanced weapons to the Li Dynasty to strengthen the Li Dynasty." National defense, I hope that our friendship with Long Yan and Li Chao will last forever, and we can seek common development and share peace."
Liu Zheng laughed.
Li Xuanya nodded in surprise. Besides money, what she was most worried about was national security.
No matter how favorable the objective conditions are to the Li Dynasty, it is an undoubted fact that Tsarist Russia is a superpower. It is not a joke to be able to destroy them with just a few clicks.
And when I heard Liu Zheng's personal assurance, I felt even more at ease.
"Also, this time, I need your help."
Liu Zheng suddenly said seriously.
"Master Liu, please tell me, Hyuna will do her best." Li Xuanya said seriously.
"I want to borrow some troops from you."
"How many?"
"One hundred thousand."
"..."
Hearing this number, Li Xuanya was stunned. This number was already one-third of their Li family's Korean standing army!
"This... Mr. Liu, I can only try my best to mediate in the parliament."
Li Xuanya frowned slightly.
"Thank you, but please don't worry, all the expenses for this hundred thousand troops will be borne by Long Yan."
Liu Zheng also knew that it was no longer Li Hyuna who had the final say in the Li Dynasty, but he felt that since the Li Dynasty had taken action against Tsarist Russia, both love and law should be firmly tied to Long Yan.
"I try my best."
Li Hyuna nodded.
If he can afford the military expenses and borrow troops, Lee Hyuna will have great confidence.
After the matter was settled, Li Hyuna went back to prepare. At the same time, the staff of the Longyan Intelligence Network also found Liu Zheng and informed him of the latest news.
Jinghua finally held on!
King Yong, King Jin, King Chu, and King Shu all arrived at King Qin in Beijing after the Youzhou army retreated.
This time, Jinghua is considered safe, and there are no careerists who dare to have other ideas.
After the crisis in Beijing was settled, Liu Zheng no longer had any reason to stay here, so he went to ask Li Xuanya to resign.
Before Li Hyuna's excitement had passed, Liu Zheng left like this, and she was indeed a little disappointed.
This is a farewell, I don’t know when we will see each other again.
She couldn't bear to leave Liu Zheng, she needed Liu Zheng.
Not only the individual, but the country also needs Liu Zheng.
Although she is now the supreme leader of Ri's North Korea, the country's political power has begun to be in the hands of the parliament.
The parliament, on the other hand, is composed of scholar-bureaucrats and old aristocrats. These two classes have solid ideas and are sophisticated egoists. When political orders affect their interests, it will be difficult to implement them.
And if you want the people to be rich and the country strong, the interests of these privileged classes will definitely be affected, and when interests conflict, these people will become an obstacle to the country's prosperity.
Therefore, Li Hyuna knew very well that if the Li Dynasty wanted to be prosperous and powerful, these stumbling blocks must be removed, and with her ability, it would be difficult to do so.
Furthermore, after getting rid of them, a new group of congressmen will come to power. When it is difficult to produce a noble son from a poor family, the power of the country is still in the hands of these scholar-bureaucrats and nobles.
Li Hyuna didn't know how to solve this, so she needed Liu Zheng's help.
"Master Liu, can I ask you something?" Li Hyuna asked.
"Of course. As long as I can do it, I will help. However, I have a small request."
Liu Zheng said with a smile.
"What?"
Li Hyuna looked confused.
"You asked me to call you Hyuna, but you called me sir, call me big brother. Listen, it's also kind." Liu Zheng said with a smile.
Hearing this, Li Hyuna smiled and nodded: "Okay, Brother Liu!"
Xie Chan, who was beside her, also smiled and said nothing.
"Brother Liu, constitutional monarchy is indeed a more advanced political system, but in the parliament, short-sighted people still account for the majority of seats. These people are exquisite egoists. Once the decree harms their interests, they will It is difficult to implement. Is there any good way to solve this problem?" Li Hyuna asked.
"this……"
This question really stumped Liu Zheng.
The problem of aristocrats controlling state power is a difficult problem to solve even in modern times. Even in the most beautiful country in the world, the political arena is still controlled by big capitalists. People are divided into three, six or nine grades, and trees are divided into pines, cypresses, and willows.
In the current highly hierarchical social environment, without the outbreak of a peasant uprising to overthrow the current regime, people who are not members of the aristocracy and scholar-bureaucrat groups will never be able to touch the center of power, and these people who can touch the center of power will never be able to reach the center of power. , the vast majority will consider their own and family interests first, followed by the national interests. This is an unspoken rule that has been followed since ancient times.
He was not surprised that Li Chao would have such a problem.
The Li Dynasty, in particular, had a centuries-old tradition of party disputes.
It's just that he thought that Li Chao, who was already full of energy, could solve this matter. Now it's obvious...
Still can't hide.
Liu Zheng slowly frowned as he listened to Li Hyuna talking about Li Chao's parliament.
