Black-haired man: "Prime Minister Du's proposal is highly appreciated by my master. Nanyun Country relied on the old snake spirit to occupy the land of Dongsheng and used it for so many years. Not only did they not return it, but they should also pay back the tax silver they took away."
Nangong Jinyuan was completely stunned: How much tax silver would it cost for more than 50 years? Where could he find so much gold to pay the compensation?
The Imperial Master is really good at calculating. How much money did he transfer to the Dongsheng treasury at once?
I envy him so much. If he had such a national teacher by his side, would he still need to worry about the future and fate of the Nangong family?
[The Emperor of Nanyun is a fool. All the gold and silver treasures accumulated by the high priest are placed in the big tree hole in the backyard of the palace. If he dies, won't all those things belong to him? Why are you so sad?]
The emperor was shocked: "......"
The high priest has his own secret treasury? Hidden in a tree in the palace? After all, he is a snake spirit, and the place he hides things is really strange.
Li Sizu: “…”
I don’t know what to say. The old snake demon is picking a fight with the tree hole.
Black charcoal head: "......"
Old snake spirit, you are a practicing spirit, why do you save so much gold and silver treasures? When people die, gold and silver treasures cannot be taken away, and all of them will be taken away by King Nanyun. Isn't it a big loss?
"National Master! Nanyun Country cannot currently provide that much gold and silver to make up for the tax." Nangong Jinyuan bowed and bargained, "Can we discuss a few things?"
He really didn't expect that a two-year-old baby could understand so much. Was what the black boy said true or false? Were the words he just said the intention of the national teacher?
I didn't even see her mouth move!
He repeated his master’s thoughts with a half-smile: “My master said that the emperor of Nanyun Kingdom is a fool, and all the gold and silver treasures accumulated by the high priest are placed in the big tree hole in the backyard of the palace.
Now that he's dead, aren't all those things yours? Why are you so sad? Go back and tear up the tree, and you'll get the tax compensation."
"What?"
Nangong Jinyuan fell to the ground with a plop. Nangong Jinyun and Nangong Jinyu hurriedly helped him up one on each side to avoid embarrassment.
Although the officials in the court did not laugh openly, they were all laughing secretly and some were whispering.
"The emperor of Nanyun is too timid. He was frightened to the point of weakness by just one sentence. He is almost like a weakling."
"That's right. What's there to be afraid of when he says that he has money in the palace? Don't you want to give it to him?"
"We have to give it back. They have occupied our territory for more than fifty years without any reason and have collected taxes from us for more than fifty years. How can they not give it back to us?"
"If he dares not to return it, then tell the Imperial Master not to treat him. Whatever happens, whether he lives or dies is a matter of Nanyun Country and has nothing to do with us in Dongsheng."
Nangong Jinyuan heard what everyone said, and he knew very well that no matter what conditions the Imperial Master proposed today, he had no right to refute.
The reason why his legs were weak was that he did not expect that the old snake demon had hidden gold, silver and treasures in the palace, and he did not expect that the imperial teacher could actually calculate it.
This was because he had calculated that the old snake demon had left some money behind, so he asked Nanyun to pay the taxes for so many years.
If the old snake knew, he would be furious. Not only was he skinned and eaten, his bones boiled and used for soup, but even the little private money he had saved was taken away.
This national teacher of Dongsheng is so cruel!
The old snake demon had no chance of winning against her, so why should he fight her? Besides, he might need her help later, so it was better not to upset her.
"Thank you for telling me, Imperial Master." Nangong Jinyuan lowered his attitude to the dust, "When I go back, I will take out all the gold and silver treasures of the old snake demon to compensate the three states and six prefectures for more than fifty years of taxes and silver."
Milk ball nodded seriously: "Okay!"
The emperor patted her head lovingly, and the little ancestor got him a large sum of money to fill the treasury. After returning from the three states and six prefectures, he could burn incense to comfort the ancestors of the Li family.
"King Nanyun! I want you to submit to Dongsheng and provide a certain amount of tribute to Dongsheng every year. I also want you to return the three states and six prefectures that were once allocated to Nanyun. Those were originally Dongsheng's lands.
In the past, the high priest came to Dongsheng and plundered, and threatened to bring disaster if the people did not give in. For the well-being of the people, he had no choice but to donate a piece of land.
Now is the time to return it, and the tax silver collected over the past fifty years must also be paid. The Ministry of Rites is in charge of this matter and there should be no delay. "
"Yes!" The Minister of Rites stepped forward and agreed.
Nangong Jinyuan followed suit and bowed: "Yes, Nangong Jinyuan led the Nanyun Kingdom to submit to Dongsheng, and he has no second thoughts."
The emperor nodded slightly and said, "I hope that King Nanyun will keep his word. If he fails to keep his word, I will fight him."
Dongsheng has already made peace with the Northern Kingdom. If Nanyun really doesn't keep his word, he wouldn't mind leading his troops in a rebellion to take back the three states and six prefectures.
As long as he wants to fight, no one will object. The unanimous voice of the generals just now is enough to explain everything. They will definitely unite against the enemy and take back the provincial capital that belongs to Dongsheng.
"I have absolutely no second thoughts!" Nangong Jinyuan declared again, looking at Chu Xiaoxiao pleadingly, "National Master! Today is the fifteenth day, and as soon as midnight arrives, the curse will take effect. I hope that the National Master will take action to remove it."
The civil and military officials did not understand what the curse on him was. They all stretched their necks curiously, wanting to see how the imperial preceptor would heal King Nanyun.
Naituanzi climbed down from the dragon throne, walked to the front of the high platform, and stretched out three fingers to Nangong Jinyuan. A milky voice rang out: "You, three."
The charcoal-headed man explained, "Master means that you have three bone-piercing soul nails on your body."
Niutanzi pressed down two fingers with difficulty, but his fingers were too short and fat, and it was not easy to bend them.
"Go, two."
Li Sizu understood and explained: "Remove two and leave one."
[I don't know if he can understand what I'm saying. I mean to remove the two bone-piercing soul nails to temporarily relieve his pain.
If he doesn't fulfill his promise after returning, I will make the bone-piercing soul nail in his heart explode and kill him. This is not my fault, he asked for it. 】
emperor:"......"
It's rare that this little ancestor can think so far ahead at such a young age. She has devoted all her energy to Dongsheng, which is really touching.
The charcoal-haired man repeated his master's thoughts in a sly voice, and then asked in a sly voice, "Do you understand what my master means? You'd better not play tricks, or you'll lose your life."
The old Duke said, "King of Nanyun! I advise you to put your life first. As far as I know, all the noble families in the capital of Nanyun are eyeing the throne.
Your Nangong family has suffered many casualties over the years due to the curse of the high priest, and the current population is not prosperous. The person who replaces you may be willing to agree to the conditions proposed by Dongsheng. With the protection of the national master, taking over Nanyun will not be so difficult. "
Nangong Jinyun and Nangong Jinyu both heard that the King of Qin was objectively analyzing the current situation in the Nanyun Royal Court.
After all, he was the one who led the troops in battle, and his analysis was very thorough and almost accurate.
