Chapter 4: Sweating profusely



"Hmm? What do you mean?!"

Mu Tianhao used to be very fond of the Sixth Princess. When Mu Yanyun suddenly spoke, he couldn't help but ask softly.

"Could it be that you have a different opinion on the Xiongnu threat?"

Ye Feiyun stood in the audience, bewildered and dumbfounded.

[No? Is this normal procedure?!]

"You're just a pill, how could you possibly have an opinion? Just make Long Aotian the vanguard general and make her his harem! What are you fussing about?"

But at this time, the court was silent, and Ye Feiyun couldn't speak, so he could only worry.

"Hmph!" Mu Yanyun snorted softly when she heard what Ye Feiyun was thinking, and stared at him fiercely with her beautiful eyes.

Aren't you going to break off the engagement?!

This princess will not let you succeed!

I still want to tell you what's in your heart. I asked you to hide your shortcomings, but I won't!

Mu Yanyun glanced coldly at the smug old Aotian in the audience, then paused and spoke softly.

"Father, I thought the grasslands were enormous, tens of thousands of miles wide. By the time we reached their doorstep, they would have already fled."

"Even if we could kill some, they would only be the elderly, children, women, and the disabled."

"Like wild grass, which can never be completely burned by wildfire, it will grow again in the spring breeze."

"The barbarians on the grasslands are only raiding for tea, salt, grain, and iron. It's better to ease than to block. We can start by tackling the supply and demand relationship in these areas."

"So, what Long Aotian said is nothing more than the words of a reckless man. It is absolutely impossible!"

"What?" Mu Tianhao heard this, sorted out his thoughts, and figured out the pros and cons. Suddenly, his face turned horrified and solemn, muttering to himself: "This...I was negligent..."

Mu Yanyun was absolutely right.

It is true. In the vast grassland, the barbarians disappear as soon as they run away. Although some of them can be killed, it is impossible to kill them all.

Especially the barbarians on the grassland, who make a living by grazing and cannot store food, so countless of them will freeze to death or starve to death when heavy snow falls.

They have no vegetables or fruits, and there is very little salt on the grasslands...

Why can't we use this commodity exchange strategy to check and control the Xiongnu?!

This idea...

Novel!!

He never thought that Mu Yanyun, who had never been involved in political affairs in the past, could see this step, which surprised him greatly!

Mu Tianhao was still savoring it.

But Ye Feiyun in the audience looked as if he had seen a ghost, his eyes almost popping out.

[What the hell?! How could this little girl know that it's better to open up than to block, and that trade and mutual benefit are the principles? This isn't the precious experience that the sages of our Dragon Nation have spent generations to learn!]

Could it be that she also knew about establishing the Tea and Horse Bureau and strictly controlling the production of salt, iron, and cloth to control barbarism?!

【Isn’t this scientific?! 】

[No, no, this little girl is a little weird! ]

[Could it be that she also knows that odd numbers change but even numbers don't, and that the sign depends on the quadrant!?]

Mu Yanyun heard these words clearly, and her beautiful eyes flickered.

It was immediately concluded that Ye Feiyun was definitely hiding his abilities!

Otherwise, how could an ordinary person come up with this strategy of using thunderous means to control barbarism while appearing to be kind on the surface?

Fortunately, she had thought that Long Aotian was somewhat manly before, but now, compared with Ye Feiyun, it was obvious that he was much better!

Apart from his somewhat dandy behavior, Ye Feiyun is a national talent!

The ministers below the stage were also shocked and excited after hearing this, as if they had heard a divine strategy from heaven.

"What the Sixth Princess said is simply the strategy of a sage. I have never heard of it before!"

"I agree. This kind of conciliatory policy can silence gossip, control the Xiongnu, and ensure the stability of our borders. It is definitely a brilliant strategy that will last forever!"

"Great...Great! Hahahaha! The Sixth Princess is truly a great blessing for me!"

The ministers praised him highly.

Ye Feiyun's face looked ugly, cold sweat was pouring down, beads of sweat the size of beans were dripping down!

Isn't the plot supposed to be like this?!

Is it that link, the way I opened it is wrong!

Mu Yanyun glanced at Ye Feiyun with her beautiful eyes and saw that he was shocked, and she smiled secretly in her heart.

I want you, Ye Feiyun, to hide your incompetence!

I want you, Ye Feiyun, to torture me every day!

I'll tell you everything you're thinking, and then I'll let you run rampant in the court, and see how you can still act pretentiously!

Just as everyone was discussing the plan.

Mu Tianhao, who was well-versed in the books of sages and studied the strategies of past dynasties for governing the Huns day and night, noticed the clue and said in surprise.

"But if we open up to full trade, won't that allow the Xiongnu to plunder our iron and cloth at will? Then, won't they grow stronger and become a threat?"

Mu Yanyun was stunned when she heard this. If she hadn't heard what Ye Feiyun had thought before, she really wouldn't have been able to answer...

But at this time.

hey-hey!

"Father, this plan is flawless. I guarantee that within ten years, the Xiongnu will be completely defeated and brought to their knees!"

"What do you mean?!" Mu Tianhao was shocked.

"We can add new officials at the border to control daily material transactions! At the same time, we can strictly control strategic materials such as salt, iron, and grain!"

"Within three to five years, the Xiongnu will rely on our Dagan for their daily necessities. If necessary, we will seize their supplies!"

"By then!"

"Don't the Xiongnu regard me as their leader and follow my lead?!"

"This is called, appearing compassionate on the surface, yet secretly using ruthless tactics!!"

As soon as these words were spoken, the whole audience was shocked and silent, so silent that you could almost hear a pin drop!

From the young ministers to the eighty-year-old pillars of government, everyone was shocked and trembling with excitement.

Mu Tianhao was horrified and leaned towards the throne suddenly with a moved expression.

"this..."

"Yan'er? You came up with this plan?!"
