The emperor also said at the beginning that the king of the Southern Kingdom might be because the visitor is not good.

Therefore, he decided to face it with the kingly way and benevolence and righteousness.

Let Chen Xiao receive the king of the Southern Xinjiang Kingdom and show his domineering nature in the Dragon Kingdom!

But how small is the southern Xinjiang country? Why should he dare to come here be unkind?

Of course, there is a reason here, that is, some small countries are very troublesome.

It was as if at this moment, a minister said, "Your Majesty, I think it is better to have a good talk.

Over the years, although the Southern Xinjiang Kingdom has been affiliated with the Long Kingdom, there are also countries around that are the same size as the Southern Xinjiang Kingdom, and they often harasse the border.

This time, if the king of Southern Xinjiang is not given an explanation, I am worried that the people of Southern Xinjiang will be dissatisfied and will harass our borders!"

When it comes to this, the emperor seems to have some headaches, saying:

"This is indeed a problem. To be honest, I am also very curious about why some small and medium-sized countries are obviously not opponents of the Dragon Kingdom, but they always come to the border to cause trouble from time to time? On the contrary, some big countries just dare to fight secretly and will not easily move troops."

A minister said: "Your Majesty, this... has always been like this in a small country. My big country can only give them some benefits."

"Yes, if you give some benefits to deal with this situation, they will be quiet." A civil servant said.

Some military officers also disagree: "I think if they dare to harass us, we will fight, including this time, they are really dissatisfied with what they want to harass our borders. Then we will fight back!"

So, the officials all expressed their opinions, saying that they were talking about official words, and they would talk about them at any time, giving them some benefits. Or they would harass them, and they would beat them.

But the emperor shook his head: "Give them good things, they will still do this every once in a while. They will harass them and beat them. They retreat and come back next time. They will never get tired of it, and they can't solve the problem!"

Everyone nodded. This is the troubles of big countries in the face of small neighboring countries. Some small countries are sensible and surrender to the Dragon Kingdom, which is fine.

Some of them just don’t do anything, they are very cheap. They make small moves on the border every few days. Although they have no big impact on the Dragon Kingdom, they are very annoying!

At this moment, Chen Xiao suddenly spoke, "Actually, the reason is very simple!"

A minister glanced at Chen Xiao and said, "Oh? Lord Chen understands? Then why not talk about it?"

Everyone also looked at Chen Xiao, obviously, they didn't believe what else could Chen Xiao have to think about this matter.

I heard Chen Xiao say: "These small countries are so brave that they make small fuss on the border of Long Kingdom, but they just know that Long Kingdom is a big country and it is difficult to easily engage in wars.

The Long Kingdom was so tired that it had no choice but to compromise and give them some benefits. And to fight against them, it seemed like a big country was stingy, and using the army would cost a lot, which was not cost-effective.

Therefore, they often provoke great powers, which makes them look awesome and can get benefits. Why not do it? But the Dragon Kingdom will still compromise. What a good thing?

For example, if there is a good person in the village, and his family is big and his business is big, there will always be people who want to take advantage of him. Even if he gives benefits to others, others will only be unscrupulous and even go to good people to steal.

A great charity is rich, but he was provoked by some little scoundrels and chose to calm down the situation and give some money. It seems that he has dismissed the little scoundrel, but it also encouraged the little scoundrel's atmosphere.

As a result, the little scoundrel became more and more excessive! And this great good man is like the Dragon Kingdom. And isn’t the Dragon Kingdom’s attitude towards these small countries the kingdom of the rule of benevolence and righteousness?”

Everyone nodded, thinking that what they said made sense.

Chen Xiao continued: "And there is another family who is a villain who bullies others from time to time on weekdays, so that the villagers are afraid of him.

Even if an orange tree in front of his house is covered with oranges, people passing by will not dare to pick one, let alone who dares to take advantage of him.

And this evil man occasionally goes to the surrounding villagers' homes to search for trouble. In the end, these people have to pay the evil man every year to prevent the evil man from bullying them.

And the Dragon Kingdom is to become such a villain. There is only one way to prevent the border from being harassed by small countries, that is, we harass them. Do you think he is convinced or not? This is domineering!"

"Okay, well said!"

An old minister spoke, looked at Chen Xiao with admiration, and continued:

"This is exactly the same as what you said before, the kingly way is to the country and the domineering way is to the country. At a young age, I admire this view!"

Chen Xiao smiled implicitly!

The emperor also nodded: "Indeed, Chen Xiao's analysis was very good."

"But, Your Majesty, according to Lord Chen's wishes, if we want to get rid of these small countries, we are going to harass them on our own initiative? Then, what about our style of a great country?" An official spoke!

Chen Xiao glanced at the minister who was talking and said, "Then, does this adult have a better way? Or, the style of a great country is to be bullied by oneself and not bully others?"

The minister opened his mouth and didn't know what to say, Chen Xiao continued:

"Use the style of a great power that should be used to maintain the dignity of a great power, and then use the style of a great power!"

The minister was confused. He savored this sentence carefully, but he didn't understand it very well, but it just sounded very reasonable.

So, he had nothing to say.

The emperor was silent and said, "This is indeed the theory of kingly domineering at the beginning. No matter what, it is a good idea. Let's do so. The Ministry of War will send some garrisons to important borders across the country. Those who like to provoke our Long Kingdom will take the initiative to provoke them!"

The Minister of War bowed: "Yes, Your Majesty!"

"That's it today, retreat to the court!" The emperor stood up.

All the officials bowed to the mountains and shouted long live, and left one by one in an orderly manner.

Chen Xiao also turned around, left the hall, and went directly to the palace school.

Today the emperor asked him to attend the court meeting. First, he took the exam for Chen Xiao, and second, he also gave Chen Xiao a task.

The king of the Southern Xinjiang Kingdom also had to come to Long Kingdom in person. When asked about his son's death, it was indeed a bit difficult for Chen Xiao to do this.

After all, Chen Xiao ordered the killing of the king of Southern Xinjiang.

However, combined with the theory of kingly way and domineering, and the emperor said that he would be a benevolent and righteous sage king with kingly way as his character.

Then it is obvious that Chen Xiao should treat the king of the Southern Xinjiang Kingdom with domineeringness.

In other words, the emperor must maintain a good character for the saint king and Chen Xiao is a bad person!

Chen Xiao sighed along the way, always thinking, is the emperor avenging his fifth son?

After a round of blame, can you bear it yourself?

When he arrived at the palace school, Chen Xiao looked at the fifth prince and became more and more unhappy when he saw it.

Suddenly, he had a sudden inspiration and said:

"Everyone, as a child of the royal family, you should also work for the country. Today, the reason why I came late was that His Majesty gave me a task to receive foreign envoys. Is there anyone who would be my assistant to help me receive them together?"

When the fifth prince heard this, he was excited. He liked to establish good relations with various countries the most. He wanted to punish the prince of the Southern Xinjiang, which was the purpose.

So he said without thinking about it: "I, I do!"

Chen Xiao smiled and nodded: "Okay, very good, I deserve to be the most popular among all princes in establishing diplomatic relations. I like you."

In fact, he was thinking to himself: Haha, Emperor, you didn't expect it. You want me to take the blame again, but I have pulled your son into the water again...

At this moment, he looked at the fifth prince, and how friendly he looked, he really wanted to call his fifth brother-in-law in public...
