He wanted money, and he even pushed for it.
Xiao Yuan continued to laugh on the side: "That's what Master Zhang is like. Sister Wang, if you don't give it, he will give you three memorials a day, and you will not be able to find a reason to refute him every time."
King Xuan was speechless for a while, then paused and said, "Okay, I will reply to Mr. Zhang tomorrow."
"Yes, I hope His Highness will make a clear decision." Zhang Jingrui saluted quickly.
"Okay, you go down and do your work first." Xiao Yuan waved his hand.
"I excuse myself."
After he left, King Xuan sighed quietly, "Actually, Xuan State lacks officials like Mr. Zhang."
"No." Xiao Yuan said quickly: "As soon as this big river canal is completed, Zhang Jingrui must return to Qin immediately."
"Brother Wang is so stingy!" King Xuan snorted and said, "But what did Brother Wang think of what he just mentioned?"
"Building a canal for civilian use is for repair. If it is expanded, it can be used for both commercial and civilian purposes. I believe Wang Mei has already made a decision in her heart about such a matter, so why bother asking me." Xiao Yuan smiled.
"Okay." King Xuan puffed up his little mouth, which was a bit cute.
Her inadvertent performance was probably only in front of Xiao Yuan.
For dinner that day, Han Ju naturally hosted a banquet, but after the banquet, Xiao Yuan summoned Zhang Jingrui alone.
In the room, after waiting for him to salute, Xiao Yuan said straight to the point: "Master Zhang, are you okay during your stay in Xuanguo?"
"Back to your Majesty, everything is going well. His Highness, King Xuan, trusts and supports you a lot." Zhang Jingrui returned truthfully.
Xiao Yuandao: "It is true that without the trust of King Xuan, you will be unable to move forward. But even so, I believe that the officials of Xuan Kingdom do not want to see you from the bottom of their hearts. You should know this."
"Yes, Weichen understands."
"If it weren't for King Xuan Sword, this matter would be really difficult to handle." Xiao Yuan said, and glanced at the sword on his waist, and said casually: "Bring it to me and take a look."
"Ah?" Zhang Jingrui was stunned for a moment, then realized what he was doing, and quickly took off the King Xuan Sword and handed it over respectfully with both hands.
Xiao Yuan took it, with the sword half unsheathed, and sincerely praised: "Xuanwang Sword, the most exquisite divine weapon."
With that, he unsheathed it again and handed it back to Wang Jian, saying: "Remember, although King Xuan's Sword is in your hand, this sword can also kill you."
Zhang Jingrui was shocked.
Xiao Yuan continued: "The officials of Xuan Kingdom, seeing you holding the king's sword, do not dare to disobey on the surface. But if there is a treacherous villain who interferes with it, there is no need to assassinate you at all. They only need to steal the sword. When the time comes, You should know how big the crime of losing King Xuan's sword is! Even if I want to protect you, I'm afraid I can't!"
After listening to his explanation, Zhang Jingrui was enlightened. At the same time, he was frightened and even his tone of voice changed slightly: "Thank you, Your Majesty, for your advice..."
"Having this matter done well and repairing the big river canals is not only a water conservancy project for the Xuan Kingdom, but also a state matter for the Qin Kingdom." Xiao Yuandao said: "In addition, although King Xuan has assigned Youlong Military Guards to you, but the elite of the Duwei Camp , you should take it with you wherever you go, your personal safety is also the top priority."
"Yes, how dare I worry the king?"
"Go ahead. If there are any big difficulties in the future, you can send a letter to Wang Ting." Xiao Yuan waved his hand.
"Thank you, Your Majesty. I will take my leave."
This is a very important official with outstanding talents, and Xiao Yuan certainly does not want anything to happen to him.
Next, after staying with King Xuan for a few more days in the area where the construction of the big river canal was started, they also returned to Xuanzhou.
On this day, the Xuanguo Dynasty Meeting Hall was held.
Xiao Yuan regarded himself as the envoy of Qin and entered the palace, preparing to make another alliance with Xuanguo. This alliance was not to attack anywhere, but to completely establish the world structure of Qinxuan and Qinzhou in the future.
Obviously, it's not that easy.
Because in an environment where countries are competing for hegemony, no two countries can always form an alliance. Even if they have cooperated, they will most likely encounter each other again. There are many examples of this.
In the previous attack on Qin, Xuan Guo sided with Qin. In the eyes of the ministers, it was to weaken Wu Chu. Now that they are still determined to use World War II, it is estimated that they will probably give excuses.
And Xiao Yuan is the King of Qin. Now he is dressed in brocade clothes and dressed as a young master. When he enters the court meeting hall, everyone can't help but arouse side glances and whispers.
Xiao Yuan didn't care at all, and he didn't regard himself as an outsider at all. After coming in, he directly bowed his hand to King Xuan: "Good morning, Sister Xuan."
Then he smiled and bowed his hands to the ministers: "Good morning, gentlemen."
"Good morning, Brother Wang." King Xuan smiled helplessly.
All the Xuanguo ministers looked at each other, and then they all saluted: "I have met His Highness the King of Qin."
After the meeting, Xiao Yuan was the first to speak: "Today, as an envoy, I will discuss with your country the alliance between the two countries."
But as soon as he finished speaking, Yao Tingyu stood up and said with a smile: "His Royal Highness King Qin, you are the king of a country and have the same status as my king. How can you be the envoy? I'm afraid this is inappropriate?"
"What's wrong?" Xiao Yuan asked.
"This..." Yao Tingyu said tangledly: "In terms of etiquette, our country should entertain His Highness with a state banquet, but now..."
"Don't worry about it, Prime Minister. All the etiquette is waived." Xiao Yuan directly interrupted the topic, "What I want to say today is that with the existing national power of Qin and Xuan, as long as they form a life-and-death alliance, there is no need to fear Countries from all over the world!”
"Whether it's the Ling Kingdom in the east, Wu Chu in the south, or even the weak Huan today, even if they unite again and engage in a decisive battle, the two countries' divisions can still defeat the enemy!"
He pointed out the topic directly. After hearing this, the ministers looked at each other again.
King Xuan remained silent and did not speak, because she had already agreed in her heart, and she only wanted to see what the officials would do.
The scene was a bit silent.
This is the consequence of King Qin going to the court of Xuanguo. After all, he is a king, and there is no need to show it deliberately. There is a kind of majesty in him, and people will naturally feel a kind of psychological pressure.
It wasn't until a while later that a minister came out and said, "His Royal Highness, King Qin, spoke like this. I dare you to ask Your Highness, is this alliance treaty between World War II and Fourth World War going to be maintained forever?"
"Of course." Xiao Yuan said concisely.
"But this." The minister hesitated for a moment and then said: "If the world's situation changes dramatically, will Qin still abide by its covenant?"
"When did you hear that my king broke the alliance?" Xiao Yuan asked back, and then said: "No matter what happens in the world, the alliance between Qin and Xuan will remain unchanged. Today, I can make it clear that when other countries attacked Qin before, Xuan's alliance Regardless of the purpose of sending troops to help, Qin will remember this kindness. Similarly, Xuanguo has also offended the four countries. If the four countries have the intention to attack Xuan in the future, or in other words, Wu Chu invades Xuanguo to avenge this, our Qin army , will send troops unconditionally as soon as possible!"
Hearing this, all the ministers of Xuan Kingdom were moved.
