"Your Majesty, we are just taking precautions. If there is no change from the other party, then of course it is a good thing. If you have this intention, we must prepare in advance."

"What's more, since you already know the ambition of the Golden Lion Kingdom, and the king's eldest son is interested in you, if we don't agree to the alliance, seeing the king's eldest son's love for you, I'm afraid we will use force to launch it

War, to capture you, we must strike first."

Xia Ningyan doesn't understand the principle of preparing for a rainy day. The Golden Lion Kingdom has great ambitions, and Xia Ningyan has just come to power. If it is not handled properly, the Great Xia Dynasty may be destroyed in her own hands.

But what Aofeiyan said is not unreasonable.

If she does not agree to the alliance, the Golden Lion Kingdom will directly launch a war against the Great Xia Dynasty, which is not something Xia Ningyan can resist now.

"Let me think about it."

"Yes, that subordinate resigned first."

Aofeiyan knew that such a decision could not be made casually. It must be carefully considered. After all, this is likely to affect the future development and direction of the entire Daxia Dynasty.

If there is an error in a certain link and some wrong decisions are made, it is very likely to lead to an irreversible end.

.....

Five days later.

In the Prime Minister's Mansion.

During these five days, Yue Tianyou didn't go anywhere, and he didn't go to the morning court. He just stayed in the Prime Minister's Mansion to practice.

Whether Yue Tianyou goes to the morning court or not depends on his own will. No one can force him.

But externally, the rest of the people also knew that Yue Tianyou had a valid reason for being injured while attacking the enemy and recuperating in the Prime Minister's Mansion.

In these five days, Yue Tianyou had already absorbed all the sixth-grade elixirs, and his strength had successfully reached the peak of the Grandmaster Realm.

Now Yue Tianyou feels full of energy and refreshed.

"Your Majesty, Prime Minister."

At this time, a voice came from outside the door, and Yue Tianyou knew it was one of his confidants, Heiying.

Heiying specializes in handling some matters that need to be dealt with in a timely manner for Yue Tianyou. He is very strong, decisive and sharp in his actions, and he is also a first-class torturer, so the intelligence information of Yue Tianyou's subordinates is left to him.

Black Shadow is the name given to him by Yue Tianyou. His own name was Bian Hongxuan. When he did not follow Yue Tianyou, he was a scholar who had not yet obtained his academic qualifications.

It was also a coincidence that Yue Tianyou discovered this scholar. He was very drunk at the time and kept muttering in a low voice about the injustice of the Daxia Dynasty's scientific examination.

After Yue Tianyou asked the scholar's name, he went to check it.

Sure enough, Bian Hongxuan's answer sheet in the scientific examination was very good, and he was definitely qualified to be the top scholar, but he was rejected.

The number one scholar at that time was a relative of the Minister of Rites, so naturally this quota could not be given to outsiders.

Later, Yue Tianyou asked Bian Hongxuan to work with him, which would give him a chance to get ahead. At that time, Yue Tianyou was not the prime minister.

After that, Bian Hongxuan followed Yue Tianyou and was loyal to him.

Because he was responsible for intelligence, Yue Tianyou gave him the title of Black Shadow.

My personality began to become more calm, calm, and less talkative.

Of course, Yue Tianyou later dealt with all the matters of favoritism and malpractice in the scientific examination at that time.

"What's the matter?"

"Her Majesty the Empress has decided to form an alliance contract with the people of the Golden Lion Kingdom. It seems that she is planning to sign this contract during the National Day Ceremony of the Great Xia Dynasty."

"Allying with the Golden Lion Kingdom, what is that woman thinking?"

"The Golden Lion Kingdom is so powerful now, why did it choose to form an alliance with the Great Xia Dynasty? Xia Ningyan didn't investigate such wolfish ambitions. She just wanted to use the power of the Golden Lion Kingdom to punish the truth. I'm afraid

Will you raise an army to rebel? You are really stupid."

Xia Ningyan should be a smart woman. She also knows very well what kind of power the Golden Lion Kingdom is. It is very ambitious. The surrounding neighboring countries have been annexed by the Golden Lion Kingdom, and its power is getting stronger and stronger now.

If the Golden Lion Kingdom wanted to use troops against the Daxia Dynasty, it would be difficult for the Daxia Dynasty to resist it. In addition, there are no obstacles around the Golden Lion Kingdom, so why should it form an alliance with the Daxia Dynasty?

"As far as my subordinates know, the reason why the Golden Lion Kingdom actively wants to form an alliance with the Great Xia Dynasty is because the prince of the Golden Lion Kingdom likes the empress and wants to use this to enhance the relationship between the two parties. He will definitely want to annex him when the time comes.

The ambition of the Great Xia Dynasty."

"If she falls in love with Xia Ningyan, she will take action against the Great Xia Dynasty even more. Does she want to take advantage of it?"

Xia Ningyan wants to rely on the Golden Lion Kingdom to punish Yue Tianyou, and at the same time, she also wants to slowly develop her own power secretly. If there is any change in the Golden Lion Kingdom, she also wants to use this to deal with the Golden Lion Kingdom.
p>

Since the prince of the Golden Lion Kingdom has taken a fancy to Xia Ningyan, even if Xia Ningyan refuses to form an alliance, war will inevitably happen in the future, so Xia Ningyan agrees to form an alliance now, and there may be no other way.

After all, the Great Xia Dynasty has the powerful minister Yue Tianyou, and there is also the Golden Lion Kingdom outside, which is eager to form an alliance. For Xia Ningyan, who has just come to power, this is indeed a very difficult matter.

"Prime Minister, what should we do now?"

"Go and arrange manpower and hide in the place where the celebration is held. If you don't have my order, stay where you are."

"I obey my orders!"

The black shadow flashed and the person disappeared.

It is actually human nature for Xia Ningyan to consider this.

After all, Yue Tianyou now dominates the government and the public, and all the civil and military officials above the court are basically on Yue Tianyou's side. Today, Yue Tianyou is already one person below ten thousand people.

Therefore, as the empress, Xia Ningyan will of course wonder whether Yue Tianyou will force her to abdicate one day. After all, she cannot let the Great Xia Dynasty fall in her hands.

Otherwise, how could she have the face to meet her ancestors?

Yue Tianyou played with the tea cup in his hand, raised the corner of his mouth slightly and murmured to himself: "It seems that the plan is going to be advanced, so let's start with the Golden Lion Kingdom."

Time passes little by little.

Soon the day came when the entire country of the Great Xia Dynasty celebrated.

This day is also the day when the Golden Lion Kingdom is preparing to sign an alliance contract with the Daxia Dynasty. On the highest mountain of the Daxia Dynasty, an altar has been set up.

Xia Ningyan was surrounded by many guards, and Aofeiyan was by her side to protect Xia Ningyan's safety.

After all, as the empress of the Great Xia Dynasty, although Xia Ningyan herself has strength, she must have a lot of guards. One is to prevent villains from plotting against her, and the other is to show her identity as empress.

After Xia Ningyan offered sacrifices to heaven and earth, she sat on a chair and waited for the people from the Golden Lion Kingdom to arrive.

"Why can't I see the Prime Minister today?"

Xia Ningyan was also surprised. The whole country was celebrating today. She had already issued an order that all officials above fifth rank must follow her, but Yue Tianyou was missing.

You know, when his father was in power, Yue Tianyou would always be present at such important events concerning the Great Xia Dynasty.
