The Dayuan envoy's thoughts were simple and realistic.
With the powerful national strength displayed by the Qin Dynasty, the Western Region Autonomous Region was a foregone conclusion whether they agreed or not.
You must know that the tone the King of Daqin used just now was not a discussion, but a notification.
If they dared to show any objection, their country would probably be destroyed by the terrifying steel behemoth soon after they returned.
In that case, it would be better to be sensible.
At least compared to the Xiongnu, Yuezhi, and Wusun, they can still retain their country name, and it can also clear him of the crime of his previous drunken remarks.
The silent atmosphere in the hall was suddenly broken.
Everyone's eyes were focused on the Dayuan envoy, but the two parties had different thoughts.
The other envoys: Are you crazy? Does your king know that you are selling out your country for personal gain?
[Officials: Oh, this yellow-haired boy is sensible.]
Ying Zheng was very satisfied with the sensible behavior of the Dayuan envoy.
His stern face softened a little, and his hearty laughter was full of appreciation.
"Hahaha, Dayuan envoy, your sincerity satisfies me."
"As a token of my appreciation, I have decided that after the Western Region Autonomous Region is established, factories, schools, hospitals, and other infrastructure will be constructed starting in Dayuan."
The Dayuan envoy was stunned. He didn't expect there would be such an unexpected surprise.
After realizing what was happening, he immediately expressed his gratitude with tears in his eyes.
"Thank you, Your Majesty, your great and benevolent majesty! Your glory will forever shine in the hearts of the people of Dayuan."
The other envoys looked at the radiant Dayuan envoy, feeling jealous, but they couldn't help but secretly weigh the pros and cons.
The military strength that Daqin had demonstrated in the past few days meant that if the two sides went to war, their country would have no ability to resist at all.
Rather than losing your country and family and becoming a prisoner of war, it is better to surrender early and gain some benefits.
As a result, the envoys from the Western Regions began to compete with each other to express their loyalty.
"Our Loulan Nation also voluntarily submits to the Western Region Autonomous Region!"
"My Gu Moguo is also willing!"
"And my Xiaowan Kingdom..."
In this way, under the strategy of "one big stick and one sweet date", all the countries in the Western Regions submitted to the Qin Dynasty and became the Western Region Autonomous Region on the territory of the empire.
The following period was the negotiation of the political interests between the Western Regions and the Qin Dynasty.
Although the court ministers discussed the details, the key decisions still needed to be made by Ying Zheng, the supreme ruler.
It was also approaching the spring plowing season, so during this period, Ying Zheng, who was busy with government affairs and diplomatic relations, went out early and came back late, without a moment's leisure.
It wasn't until February that everything was settled.
At night, the full moon hangs high in the sky and the stars twinkle.
The breeze blew across Ying Zheng's tired face, taking away some of his boredom. When he saw a bright yellow candle lamp at the palace gate in front of him, his steady and powerful footsteps suddenly paused.
The next moment, a surprised female voice sounded, disturbing his heart.
"A Zheng, you're back!"
In the silent night, the woman ran towards him in the hazy moonlight, and then threw herself into his arms with complete trust.
In the dim light, her beautiful eyes with a gentle smile were as bright as stars, so beautiful that he was intoxicated.
Ying Zheng held the person in his arms tightly, softness and warmth filled his chest and heart.
He lifted up his wife's slightly wet hair, his sword-like brows slightly wrinkled, but his phoenix eyes were filled with tenderness and doting.
"Summer nights are hot and full of mosquitoes. Yue Ning will wait for me in the hall."
"But......"
Chu Yuening embraced the man's strong waist, rubbed his broad chest, and spoke coquettishly in a soft voice.
"I want to see A Zheng as soon as possible~"
The woman's soft and melodious voice was like honey, so sweet that Ying Zheng's heart trembled, and the fatigue of many days slowly dissipated without him noticing.
He suppressed the strong desire that was surging in his chest, took the woman's slender hand, and walked home together in the hazy moonlight.
As soon as you enter Qinian Palace, the aroma of food hits your nose.
Following the smell, I saw a plate of crystal clear noodle strips on the dining table.
It is decorated with green cucumbers, tender yellow bean sprouts, red peanuts and some chunks of lotus root, and with chili oil and aged vinegar, it smells very appetizing.
Chu Yuening pulled the man to sit at the dining table, then pushed the food in front of him and urged him with a smile.
"A Zheng, try the cold noodles, I made them myself~"
"Thank you for your hard work, Yue Ning."
Ying Zheng looked at his gentle and charming wife in the candlelight, his eyes even gentler than the moonlight outside the window.
He picked up his chopsticks and slowly savored the food.
The cold noodles have a smooth and soft texture, a spicy and sour taste, and are delicious when paired with a variety of side dishes. They are very appetizing in the hot summer.
Chu Yuening propped up her head and looked at the man opposite her, who was so elegant and noble even when he was eating, and she felt it was pleasing to the eye.
In the quiet hall, bright yellow candlelight flickered.
The two of them didn't say a word, but the tender affection flowing between them made people feel that the years were peaceful.
After finishing the meal, Ying Zheng went to the bathroom to take a shower, while Chu Yuening lazily leaned on the chaise longue, looking at the plan of Daqin Bank.
In recent years, the economy of Daqin has developed rapidly, commercial trade has become more frequent, and the demand for savings, loans, transactions, etc. has greatly increased. It is time to establish an official bank.
It can also pave the way for the next industrial revolution.
As she thought about it, she felt sleepy and couldn't help yawning. A layer of mist appeared in her beautiful eyes.
A quarter of an hour later, there was a slight sound of the door being pushed open.
Chu Yuening looked in the direction of the voice and saw an extraordinarily handsome man with loose black hair dripping with water, his naked upper body shrouded in water vapor and exposed to the air.
