The intentions of these envoys from the Yuwen Department were very obvious. They also knew that they needed time to develop, so they brought gifts and acted humbly to the capital, and bowed to the emperor of the Great Jin Dynasty.

The purpose is very simple, which is to win the title of a minister of the Great Jin Dynasty, so that your country will never have any reason to attack your own vassal states.

However, Yuwen’s department can tear up the contract at any time.

This trick sounds naive, but it is very useful. No matter which dynasty or dynasty, the word "etiquette" is always attached to the word "etiquette". Generally, as long as you are willing to bow your head and pay enough face to the court, the court will not only "give" you a lot of things, but will also provide you with protection.

Throughout the dynasties, some small countries used this trick to take away a lot of things from the Xia Dynasty.

To put it bluntly, it's a good deal of face.

If you bow down to me and recognize me as your father, I will recognize your status and will send troops to protect you, and will make good friends for generations in the future, and be a country of brothers and fathers and sons.

This is the advantage of the country of etiquette and the disadvantage of the country of etiquette.

It is precisely because of this habit that people often die from fighting snakes, and for some emperors, they will really do their best to the vassal states for their own sake, and waste their national strength.

Emperor Yuan Zhao hesitated about Yuwen Di's request.

Li Xin once asked him to prepare for the northern expedition, and explained to him more than once the hidden dangers of the Xianbei Yuwen tribe, but now the Yuwen tribe has sent envoys to bow to the Great Jin Dynasty.

After resigning from the court, the emperor discussed with Gong Yang Shu and others for a while in the Weiyang Palace. Most of the prime ministers' opinions were to accept tribute from the Yuwen tribe and recognize their titles. In this way, the northern border of the Great Jin Dynasty will be stable from then on, and there will be no worries about foreign enemies.

After hearing the words of the prime ministers, Emperor Yuan Zhao did not say much, but said that he had to consider it. After the prime ministers returned to the Shangshutai, the emperor thought for a long time alone, and finally sent Xiao Huai to the Jing'an Marquis Mansion to invite Li Xin into the palace.

Xiao Huai was capable in his work. In just one hour, he put Li Xin in the palace. It was almost noon. There was a table of food in the side palace of Weiyang Palace. After Li Xin walked in, he didn't have time to salute. The emperor walked over, pulled Li Xin's sleeve, and smiled and said, "The teacher doesn't have to salute him anymore. I haven't been to Jing'an Hou Mansion for a long time. I'll have a meal with the teacher today."

The Marquis of Jing'an smiled slightly and sat down next to the table with the emperor. The master and apprentice sat opposite each other from each other, just like Emperor Taikang and Li Xin were drinking and eating in the Weiyang Palace.

After sitting down, before the emperor could speak, Li Xin asked, "Your Majesty summoned me to come and talk about the Xianbei envoy?"

The emperor smiled and said, "Although the teacher does not attend court, the matter in the court cannot be hidden from the teacher."

"I heard of such a big thing."

In front of the emperor, Li Xin naturally would not say what he had to do with someone in the court, and slowly spoke: "Your Majesty wants to ask me, what do you think about this?"

Emperor Yuan Zhao sighed and said, "I know what the teacher means. The teacher has always been a war faction in the court. When the late emperor was there, the teacher led troops to fight north. The Zhenbei Army defeated the Xianbei Yuwen Department and made great contributions."

Speaking of this, the emperor looked up at Li Xin and said hesitantly: "It's just that the envoys of the Xianbei Yuwen Department are quite humble in the Weiyang Palace. All the officials in the court saw it. They have already bowed to our great Jin Dynasty. If we don't say anything at this time, we will be called a military force in the northern border."

Marquis Jing'an didn't say much, but just smiled: "What does Your Majesty mean?"

Emperor Zhao of Yuanzhao couldn't figure out what Li Xin was thinking. He hesitated after hearing this and said, "What I mean is... I can't be a good idea to lead Wuming. At present, there is a gateway for Zhenbei Army and Yunzhou Army to guard the northern border, so there is no problem. Since the Xianbei army wants to pay tribute to me in the Great Jin Dynasty, it will not be too late to wait until they make mistakes, and then use troops to the northern border."

Marquis Jing'an smiled: "Your Majesty is wise."

"In this way, the Yuwen tribes who had been confronting the Great Jin Dynasty for decades finally completely surrendered to the court in His Majesty's Yuan Zhao Dynasty. In the future, the historians will record this matter and will also say that the Great Jin Dynasty will flourish in the Yuan Zhao Dynasty."

"It is possible to force the powerful Northern Zhou Dynasty to pay tribute to the Great Jin Dynasty every year, which shows His Majesty's magical martial arts."

Emperor Yuan Zhao's face turned a little red, and he stammered and said, "The teacher said it just because I... I don't want to fight, I just consider the country and people's livelihood, and I can't bear to use any more weapons."

"Then don't move."

The Marquis of Jing'an smiled indifferently: "I just said that Your Majesty is wise. Since the Xianbei Yuwen tribe in the northern border has been bowed to my great Jin, there is naturally no reason to fight again. Yuwen Zhao has a daughter named Yuwen Que. In the ninth year of Taikang, he came to the capital to marry the Tian family. The Ministry of Rites should be aware of this matter. When Your Majesty is in full swing, he will marry Yuwen Zhao's daughter as a concubine. Not to mention the relationship between the two families, it will be natural to give Yuwen Zhao the title of prince. At that time, the northern border of the Great Jin Dynasty will be peaceful forever and there will be no more disasters of war."

Emperor Yuan Zhao took a deep breath, lowered his head and stood up from the low table, bowing deeply to Li Xin: "Teacher, I know you are uncomfortable. I will not let go of my guard against them just because of the one hundred horses in the Yuwen Department. However, I am not in charge of the rule for a long time and need some good-looking political achievements and reputation. Therefore, at this time, I... want to accept it."

"Don't worry, teacher, this is just a delaying strategy."

Emperor Yuan Zhao expressed his firm expression and said in a deep voice: "No matter what, the hidden dangers in northern borders will definitely be completely solved in Yuan Zhao's dynasty, and I will never give harm to future generations."

Li Xin was not surprised by the emperor's attitude.

An emperor who had just ascended the throne for a year would think about the most is stability and then slowly complete the transition of power. Such a thing that others came over and tried to gild his face, even if Emperor Taikang put it in this position, he would not refuse.

Moreover, the Great Jin Dynasty was not just the north. After seeing the power of the sky thunder, it was difficult for Emperor Yuan Zhao not to be vigilant against the southwest.

Li Xin slowly let out a breath and stood up from the table. He bowed to Emperor Yuan Zhao and bowed deeply.

"Before the death of the late emperor, I promised him that I would definitely clear the hidden dangers of the Yuwen tribes in the northern border of the Great Jin Dynasty. Now I and the court are ready, and I can go north at any time."

"Your Majesty does not want to fight north, it is not because of the minister's words but without trust."

After saying that, Li Xin bowed to the emperor and said, "Your Majesty, I can't eat this meal today. I will say goodbye first."

Emperor Yuan Zhao raised his hand and wanted to keep Li Xin, but finally sighed and bent down to salute Li Xin.
