Chapter 479 Who is Shameless
However, since you keep saying that I am a family with your brothers, then I can't betray your kindness, can I?
Pei Yi complained secretly in her heart, and said with a familiar face: "It's hard for Linyu to be so considerate of me."
"Although I accept his affection, I can't make it difficult for him, let alone let his thoughts go to waste."
"Guai Yue, we are a family, so we won't talk about nonsense and politeness."
"What are you and Linyu thinking, just tell me directly."
"We can talk about anything when we talk to our own family."
He Lian closed his lips and smiled, and said with a smile: "Since my brother has said so, then I will not be hypocritical."
"What my elder brother means is that our Western Turks have always been good-neighborly and friendly with Dazhou, and we can't do the kind of thing that unites outsiders to deal with friends."
"However, we Western Turks are only a small state after all, and it is really embarrassing to be sandwiched between the Great Zhou and the Great Chu."
"East Turks are eyeing us again."
"To tell you the truth, brother, the East Turks have often harassed us in recent years."
"We West Turks originally wanted to turn hostility into friendship, and from now on we will not interfere with East Turks, and each country will have its own life."
"I never thought that the Eastern Turks were warlike and fierce. The more we back down, the more arrogant they will be!"
Pei Yi put on an attitude of listening carefully, and her expression seemed to be quite annoyed, but in fact she had already complained in her heart: Girl, can you show some face?
As long as anyone who knows a little about current affairs knows that it is obvious that you Western Turks have been chasing Eastern Turks for years, okay?
East Turkistan was bruised and swollen by you, and begged for peace with you.
As a result, you Western Turks have too much ambition, you must not make peace with others, and you are determined to swallow them by force.
East Turkic had no choice but to come to Da Zhou for help.
In order to balance the strength of the Eastern and Western Turks, Dazhou chose to subsidize the Eastern Turks—giving money and food.
Of course, these are not free gifts.
East Turkistan’s feedback is to donate 500 BMWs to Dazhou every year.
In the Central Plains where raising horses is expensive and difficult to raise, it is quite good to have such a source of horses.
Under such mutual benefits, there was a delicate situation in which the Great Zhou assisted the Eastern Turks and maintained a balance between the Eastern and Western Turks.
"Brother, if Da Zhou is willing to help us Western Turks, how can I, Western Turks, be bullied like this by East Turks?" After Helian Banyue said this, he sighed in pain and distress.
Pei Yi was clear in her heart, but she also sighed on her face, put on a very embarrassed look and said: "I also know that it is not easy for you Western Turks."
"I wish you had come earlier."
"Gui Yue, you can just talk about it if you come a month earlier."
"Our Majesty has met the East Turkic envoys and promised to assist East Turkic."
"If the Eastern Turks were abandoned for you at this moment, wouldn't Da Zhou become a treacherous country?"
He Lian Guanyue choked for a moment, and said to himself: She is indeed the "sister-in-law" that my elder brother has taken a fancy to me. This is as shameless as my elder brother when it comes to playing Tai Chi! Obviously, it was a year ago that Da Zhou and East Turkic negotiated terms, but the "sister-in-law" was able to talk nonsense without blushing and heartbeating that it was "a month" ago.
Both of them complained in their hearts, but they still had a peaceful face.
Helian Guanyue frowned, and sighed with a look of melancholy: "East Turk is really too cunning. If you bully people, you will even sue the wicked first. Brother, you said that I, West Turk, not only have to deal with the bullying of East Turk, It is really difficult to bear the pressure of Da Chu!"
The implication of the words: Brother, if you practice Tai Chi with me again, our Western Turks will fall into the arms of Da Chu!
Pei Yi took a sip of tea slowly, and calmly said: "If you join forces with Da Chu, what benefits can you Western Turks get?"
Helian Guanyue frowned, puffed her cheeks slightly and said in embarrassment: "It's hard for me to talk about this kind of confidential matter. But brother, you are my own brother, how can I hide it from you? Chu sent Chu Mingxiao, the fifth prince of the Chu Kingdom, to contact us, saying that after winning the Great Zhou, he would give us all the thirteen towns in the northwest of the Great Zhou."
Pei Yi's eyes turned cold, and she cursed directly in her heart: Damn you! Dare to use his big Zhou's territory to negotiate benefits with others! Da Chu has such a big face for the generosity of others.
Pei Yi put down the teacup and said with a smile, "Chu State is playing tricks on you."
"Thirteen border towns in the northwest are the most important border defense towns in our Great Zhou."
"If Chu State annexed the Great Zhou Dynasty, how could such important military areas be assigned to you?"
He Lian closed his eyes and clapped his hands together, approvingly: "Brother, what you said is exactly the same as my elder brother."
"My elder brother also said that Chu State is not upright at all, and will only make big cakes for us Western Turks."
"To be honest, we Western Turks don't want to form an alliance with Chu at all."
"However, the soldiers of the Chu State are strong and strong, and our Western Turks are now exhausted by the Eastern Turks. How can we withstand the pressure of the Chu State?"
Pei Yi glanced at the princess who was talking about running the train, and said meaningfully: "If Western Turkic swallows Eastern Turkic, it will be a huge country. How dare Chu State put pressure on you?"
"Hey..." He Lian Guanyue sighed for a long time, waved his hands and said, "Where do we Western Turks dare to think about this kind of thing?"
"Western Turks have always admired the Great Zhou Dynasty."
"Da Zhou is now on good terms with Nadong Turkic."
"We respect Da Zhou, how dare we do anything to make Da Zhou unhappy?"
Pei Yi pursed her lips and smiled lightly, half-jokingly and half-seriously: "Great Zhou is a state of etiquette and pays great attention to morality. If the Eastern Turks continue to bully the Western Turks, Da Zhou will not just sit idly by."
As soon as Helian Guanyue heard this, she knew that the matter could be discussed, so she quickly said: "Da Zhou is really a country of benevolence and righteousness, and I don't know what kind of tricks those cunning and cunning people in East Turkisia used to convince Da Zhou Their bullshit."
Pei Yi said calmly: "East Turkic is willing to pay tribute every year with 800 hard-earned BMWs, 200 head of cattle, and 3,000 head of sheep."
He Lian Guanyue was stunned for a moment, and asked with a confused and depressed face: "Isn't the East Turkic tribute 500 horses every year? 1,000 cows and 1,500 sheep."
Pei Yi looked meaningfully at the princess sitting on the side, and insisted without blushing, "Gui Yue, you remember wrongly. It is clearly written in the treaty that there are 700 hard-blooded BMWs every year, and 1,500 One cow, two thousand sheep, nothing less."
He Lianlianyue's complexion became subtle, and he took a sip of the horse milk tea at hand.
