“That’s right, that’s right. Pushe, don’t worry. They are all talents that I, Rouran, can’t even beg for. I will definitely treat them well.”
Actually, there was no need for Xie Xian to say this. Doctors and craftsmen were considered top-notch talents in Rouran. As long as they were held in their hands, there was really no mistreatment.
There were only a dozen or so people left and right, and they were already stuffed to death. If someone went, they would be burning incense for eight
lifetimes.
The ancestors of the Rouran envoys had also been persecuted by the previous dynasty and could not live on, so they had no choice but to leave their homes.
As long as there was a way to survive, who would be willing to run to a place where birds did not lay or chickens did not shit?
He wanted to come back now, but he couldn’t.
“That’s fine. The rain is getting heavy. Envoy, please enter the posthouse.’ Xie Xian cupped his hands in the carriage.” The mountains are high and the road is long. I’m afraid we won’t meet again after this. Envoy, take care.””
Xie Xian sat on the ox cart and left. He had no intention of answering the envoy’s questions.
Who else could he tell about his intentions?
He was afraid that others would not know about his wild ambitions and that he would use tricks behind his back.
Since he had any thoughts, he could not explain it to a foreign envoy. He still knew whether it was a friend or a foe. The envoy’s eyes were filled with the desire to recruit him.
He was not interested.
The envoy was not that capable.
Xie Xian tapped his fingers on the couch. The smell of incense in the car was the same as Xiao Baoxin’s favorite. It was too fragrant for Langjun, but he liked it.
This reminded him of Xiao Baoxin, as if she was always by his side.
Even though his colleagues were secretly joking with him, Xie Xian had no intention of changing.
His car, his smell, he could use whatever he wanted.
However, this also brought about a wave of incense among the nobles. The smell of each incense was stronger than the other, and gradually, Xie Xian was rarely mentioned. The main reason was that no one dared to say it in front of him. There was no sense of accomplishment in saying it behind his back. It had already become a fashion trend. It would be meaningless to say it to others.
Xie Xian had no intention of interfering in Rouran’s affairs.
Of course, even the Imperial Capital of Yongping didn’t believe this. Otherwise, why would he send doctors and craftsmen to Rouran?
Wasn’t national interest more important than personal interest? You’re doing something that doesn’t benefit you? Are you stupid?
“Right now, whether it’s Northern Wu, Rouran, or Liang, which looks stable, they’re all facing internal and external problems. No one could send troops to launch an invasion war and attack other countries at this time. However, one year later, two years later, no one could guarantee which country would be the first to be unified and then seek other things.”
“Rouran doesn’t have any borders with Daliang. If we support Rouran, the only one who will be worried will be Beiwu.”
“How can you let others sleep peacefully beside your bed? Northern Wu would always be wary of Rouran, and it would be beneficial to.Daliang, so why not go with the flow and stab a thorn in Northern Wu’s heart?”
With a few words, Emperor Yong Ping was convinced.
Xie Xian’s plan was 100% open and was on the table. North Wu could not afford to ignore it. However, they could only take it seriously. If he used the same plan against Rouran, it would only be copying others ‘wisdom. It would not play a decisive role.
Emperor Yong Ping looked at Xie Xian and forced a smile. It was very hurtful that his intelligence could not compare.
Xie Xian’s strategy was a long-term one. It was very likely that it would take a long time before he could see the results. Emperor Yong Ping would never have thought that there would be many changes in this.
Thinking about it, he was too shortsighted.
Emperor Yongping reflected on himself.
###
“The emperor said that the empress is pregnant and intends to become in-laws with us.”When Xie Xian returned to the Xie Clan, he told Xiao Baoxin
everything.
The Emperor and Empress had worked hard for so long, and finally, they had seen results.
After hiding it for three months, the fetus was stable, and it was announced to the public.
The absence of a son in the middle palace was a great pressure on both Emperor Yong Ping and Empress Xiao. In the past two years, Empress Xiao and the Emperor had supported each other, and their relationship had grown deeper and deeper.
As a result, the idea fell on Xie Xian’s head.
“The emperor had no choice and cast all the nets he could. Even those five or six year old princess sisters were allowed to be engaged. Look, even before we can determine whether the Empress is pregnant with a boy or a girl, she has already set her sights on our family.”
These words were really ironic.
There was no need to think about it. Looking at his mocking smile, Xiao Baoxin could also tell that Xie Xian was quite dissatisfied with being bound to Emperor
Yong Ping.
He was guarding against him, trying to win him over, and at the same time, he was guarding against him. He was doing all sorts of tricks behind his back.
With Emperor Yong Ping’s temperament, Xie Xian had no doubt that once he took control of the situation, he would step down and retire.
Emperor Yong Ping was not even as broad-minded and wealthy as his father. There were too many petty things.
“So you agreed?” Xiao Baoxin asked, not doubting the truthfulness of Xie Xian’s words in the slightest. He could decide whether it was a man or a woman with just a touch, but he couldn’t decide whether it was a dragon’s son or grandson. If something happened to an ordinary family, there was nothing they could do about it. However, if something happened in front of the emperor, it could not be a mistake. It was cheating the emperor.
Who would dare to determine a man’s gender by touching his pulse?
No one would dare to do that.
“isn’t our family engaged to the Lu family?”Xie Xian still remembered this. He and Assistant Minister Lu were in-laws-future ones.
Who asked the two families to give birth to sons now? There was no match.
“If you’re allowed to go out, then you’re allowed to go out. You can’t match two people in a family. That’s bullying the emperor.”
Empress Xiao naturally didn’t want to give birth to a little lady, so she wanted to make the final decision and give birth to a son.
However, Xiao Baoxin also gave birth to sons. How could this be decided? Emperor Yong Ping followed suit and had a child betrothal, marrying the opposite sex.
Xiao Baoxin,”Have you forgotten…” You still have a son…Ah Qi…”
“I’ve also decided on it.” Xie Xian blinked.
You’re saying that you’re a My son?” The problem was, how could she not know?
“Don’t you know now?” Xie Xian laughed.”
“You, what do you mean?” Xiao Baoxin was confused.” To be honest, does the family that you’re engaged to know about your marriage? The question was not giving him any face.
“I already know.” Xie Xian put his arm around Xiao Baoxin’s shoulder and whispered in her ear,””During the next court session, I went to the Xi family and settled with Xi Zong.”
“You and Sixth Lady Chu have always been on good terms. I see that his daughter is also delicate and charming. She doesn’t have much of the Xi family’s inheritance, so… What do you think about this?
Xiao Baoxin understood. In any case, in order not to marry Emperor Yong Ping, he had put in all his effort.
“Between the Sixth Lady and Empress Xiao, I naturally choose the Sixth Lady.”Xiao Baoxin wasn’t the least bit displeased that Xie Xian had decided on the marriage without even informing him.
Xie Xian was Xie Qi’s biological father. What could he do to harm him?
