"Old Wei, I am a more realistic person and prefer rewards of real money and silver! The reason why Li Rui granted me the marriage is simply to use his identity as the consort to contain me."
"You really think other people are stupid, you can't see their little thoughts!"
Wei Zhongxian quickly came out to smooth things over and said, "General, you may have misunderstood Your Majesty. This was entirely the idea of the treacherous Prime Minister Yan Song."
Zhou Yi smiled disdainfully and said: "Of course I know this is the fault of old thief Yan Song. His old boy was defrauded of 20 million taels of silver by me last time. He definitely wants to wait for me to find a way to get revenge after I return to Beijing. "
When he thought of Yan Song's son being tortured like that and still holding his buttocks when he finally returned, Zhou Yi could guess how Yan Song would take revenge on him.
If Zhou Yi accidentally fell into the hands of Yan Song and his son, he would definitely experience the miserable life of a man on top of a man.
"I will not go to the capital, and I will not be the consort. Just take back this imperial edict and the jade pendant!" Zhou Yi said firmly.
Although Wei Zhongxian had long expected Zhou Yi's reaction, Wei Zhongxian still admonished him with a sad face.
"Master Zhou, this time is different from last time. Last time, the Xiongnu and Khitan were besieging the city, so we couldn't see each other as an excuse."
"This is a grace bestowed by the emperor himself. Master Zhou, if you don't accept your majesty's offer of marriage, I'm afraid old thief Yan Song will use this as an excuse to say that you are too self-reliant to be superior..."
Zhou Yi smiled faintly and said, "Isn't it easy to find excuses? Just go back and tell Li Rui, why should we take care of the family before the Xiongnu are destroyed? I, Zhou Yi, will not get married until I destroy the Xiongnu and capture Karasuma Chanyu!"
"But…"
Wei Zhongxian wanted to continue admonishing, but was interrupted by Zhou Yi.
"There is also a memorial here. Please bring it to Li Rui when you go back!"
Wei Zhongxian reluctantly opened the memorial handed over by Zhou Yi and after reading it, he couldn't help being surprised.
"Master Zhou, isn't this... this... inappropriate?"
Zhou Yi snorted coldly and said: "What's wrong with this? To fight the Xiongnu is all money that I, the people of Yongzhou, can't get out of the money because they have destroyed their families and rescued their families. The imperial court has not seen a grain of grain or a weapon! Besides, I will do the same this time He does not need any support from Li Rui and the court,"
"But general, you have just finished fighting the Xiongnu, and now you want to fight the Dawan Kingdom again..."
Wei Zhongxian glanced at Zhou Yi and found that Zhou Yi's expression was a little unhappy. He quickly changed his words and said, "We heard that this powerful country is thousands of miles away. I'm afraid your body won't be able to bear the burden of such a long expedition."
"You can just submit this memorial. Don't forget that Li Rui's throne was planned for him by the two of us. Otherwise, depending on his ability, he might die in the battle to seize the throne one day. !”
Wei Zhongxian, who boarded Zhou Yi's pirate ship, could only listen to Zhou Yi and make mistakes.
"In this case, we can only bring General, your memorial and thoughts back to the capital!"
What is written in Zhouyi's memorial is that he wants to send troops to attack the Kingdom of Dayuan.
Sending troops to attack Dayuan was what Zhou Yi wanted to do before attacking the Xiongnu.
Zhou Yi always held the idea of doing harmonious business and asked Zhang Huogen to go to Dayuan Kingdom with gold worth millions of taels to purchase bloody BMWs, thereby enhancing the strength of his army.
But he didn't expect that the damn King of Dayuan, under the bewitchment of his treacherous ministers, was obsessed with the gold and wanted to hunt down the Yongzhou soldiers of Zhou Yi.
If Zhang Huogen and Zheng Zhibai hadn't been informed by someone and they were able to escape first, I'm afraid these people would have died in a foreign country.
Although Zhang Huogen and Zheng Zhibai escaped first, hundreds of loyal soldiers were still buried in other places.
Because they were hunted by the Dawan Kingdom, Zheng Zhibai and the others encountered many small countries on their way back.
Therefore, in addition to Dawan, Zhou Yi is also prepared to teach them some lessons and let them know how powerful they are for those small countries in the Western Regions that have fallen into trouble.
Wei Zhongxian brought Zhou Yi's rejection back to the court. The treacherous prime minister Yan Song had already prepared various methods of questioning after knowing that Zhou Yi refused to marry.
Li Rui, who was sitting on the dragon throne, asked angrily: "My imperial sister is so charming that she can conquer the country. How dare Zhou Yi refuse my offer of marriage! She is so ungrateful!"
Wei Zhongxian, who was kneeling on the ground, quickly explained: "Your Majesty, please calm down! Your Majesty, please calm down!"
"General Zhou, he said, Your Majesty is so kind. General Zhou, he is sincere and frightened. Her Royal Highness the Princess is so beautiful that she has captivated the country. Admiral Tiance feels ashamed after seeing it."
"The most important thing is that General Zhou said: Why should the Xiongnu have a family before they are destroyed! General Zhou said that he will only start a family after wiping out the Xiongnu Khitan in one fell swoop and restoring peace and prosperity to the world."
After hearing Zhou Yi's reasons, Li Rui on the dragon throne couldn't find an excuse to blame Zhou Yi for a while.
"The Xiongnu are not exterminated, why should we take care of our family?"
Zhou Yi's structure is so big. If Li Rui, as the emperor, were to force him to marry Princess Gaoyang, it would appear that his royal family was too contemptuous and he insisted on handing over the princess to Zhou Yi.
After Yan Song and his party heard the reason "the Huns are not destroyed, why should they take care of their family", they originally thought of countless reasons to attack Zhou Yi, but at this moment they seemed so small and insignificant under such a big picture.
At this time, Wei Zhongxian took out another memorial from Zhouyi.
When he learned that Zhou Yi Shangshu wanted to attack the Kingdom of Dayuan, which was thousands of miles away, Yan Song knew that his opportunity had come, and immediately winked at his subordinates and retorted.
Yan Song's Minister of War immediately stood up and said: "Your Majesty, the general has just defeated the Xiongnu this time. The army is already exhausted. It may be suspected of militarism to send troops to Dayuan Kingdom, which is thousands of miles away."
"Furthermore, if you raise an unjust teacher, I'm afraid no one in the world will agree with you!"
This time Li Rui did not agree with what the Minister of War said.
Because in the memorial, Zhou Yi fanned the flames and wrote that he was sending envoys to the country of Dawan in the name of Emperor Chen Li Rui, hoping to buy the bloody BMW produced in his country. As a result, the king of Dayuan not only refused to sell the bloody horse to himself, but also thought that the king of Chen was just an eunuch without balls.
Zhou Yi himself was very angry about this, thinking that the king of Dawan was insulting himself by insulting Li Rui. He also believed that it was necessary for him to send troops to Dawan to make the king of Dawan pay the price for his ignorance.
Li Rui very much agreed with what Zhou Yi wrote in the memorial. Moreover, Zhou Yi also said in the memorial that there was no need for the court to waste any money and food. When the time came, he could just defeat the enemy with food.
It saves him so much worry, he respects his ministers so much, and he understands the principle of humiliating his ministers to death. How can Li Rui not support him?
So Li Rui once again drafted an imperial edict, agreeing with Zhou Yi to send troops to Dawan.
