Chapter 125 The Joint Mission to the Western Regions
Chapter 125 The Joint Mission to the Western Regions
Fu Wan's departure was expected by Gongsun Xu, but the news of the marriage gift from the emperor had already spread in Chang'an.

And Meng Chen, who returned to the governor's mansion, always felt a little embarrassed when facing Fushou.

Fortunately, there is Cai Wenji in the backyard. Generally speaking, Meng Chen's life has not been greatly affected.

Time passed day by day, and with the arrival of the new year, the entire Chang'an City was once again silent in a joyful atmosphere.

Xiliang Governor Mengchen's New Deal activated the economy of the entire Sanfu, Xiliang and even the Western Regions. Although the people's lives were not considered rich, they would not worry about being hungry.

"My lord, there is news from the Protectorate of the Western Regions that 36 countries have formed a joint mission to prepare to pay tribute!" Jia Xu appeared in front of Meng Chen with a hurried expression.

"Joint Mission? Tribute?" Meng Chen made a difference.

After a pause, Mengchen continued, "Come to Chang'an to pay tribute?"

Jia Xu nodded, Meng Chen was speechless for a while, and thought: "The emperor is still here, and the tribute should go to Xudu, and he came to Chang'an to cheat himself."

Seeing this, Liu Bowen on the side hurriedly said: "My lord, the countries in the Western Regions don't know the situation of the great Han. This move is nothing more than trying to please the lord."

Meng Chen lowered his head and pondered for a while, it seemed that what Liu Bowen said was reasonable, so why not go with the flow?
"This...we should go to Xudu!"

As soon as this remark came out, Liu Bowen nodded with a smile, but what he said next gave Meng Chen a new understanding of Liu Bowen.

"Must have to go, but the tribute must also be screened!"

The so-called screening is actually interception!
Under the current situation, the countries in the Western Regions came to pay tribute entirely out of fear. After all, the two dispatches of the Han army wiped out Wusun and Jingjue.

Among the countries in the Western Regions, rumors about the Jingjue Queen are overwhelming. No one can tell which is true and which is false.

But one thing is clear, that is, Meng Chen killed the Jingjue Queen!

Such a result, coupled with the news about Queen Jingjue spread in the Western Regions, made the prestige of Meng Chen, a big man and governor, soaring.

Since then, it has become inevitable for the countries in the Western Regions to form a joint mission to pay tribute.

"Military teacher, report the good news to Xu Du!" Meng Chen said with a smile, which was a conclusion on this matter.

Under Meng Chen's operation, the news of the joint mission of the countries in the Western Regions spread like wind in Chang'an.

Not only that, this strong wind blew straight across the entire Dahan Thirteen States.

In Xudu, in the emperor's palace, Meng Chen's memorial has not arrived yet, but Liu Xie, who is the emperor, has already heard the news.

"Cao Sikong, is the news about the tribute from the Western Regions true?" Liu Xie asked with a smile on his face.

The reason for this is that Liu Xie just wanted to demonstrate to Cao Cao!

"I thought this matter was unusual, so I sent someone to Chang'an." Cao Cao calmly replied.

Liu Xie's eyebrows twitched. He wanted to make Cao Cao feel embarrassed, but he didn't expect Cao Cao to refuse to accept the move at all.

Since then, the carefully prepared rhetoric has lost its usefulness, and the entire court has fallen into a dead silence.

The most difficult thing at this moment is that after lying down, my heart is like an ant on a hot pot, and beads of sweat pop out of my forehead one by one.

"Doctor Fu is unwell?" Cao Cao looked at him coldly, and Fushou's heart beat faster.

"The weather is cold and I feel a little unwell!"

"Sweating profusely, Doctor Fu is not feeling well, he should go home to recuperate."

As soon as Cao Cao said this, his whole body trembled after he fell down, his back was already eroded by sweat, and he was trembling and speechless.

"Your Majesty, Dr. Fu is old and unwell. He should resign and go home to recuperate." Cao Cao came out and bowed to Liu Xieyi.

"This this…"

……

After the court meeting dispersed, the furious Liu Xie returned to the bedroom and smashed all the things that could be smashed aside.

Even so, he still couldn't dispel the anger in his heart.

Three days later, a fast horse entered from the west gate of Xudu, and the news that had been spread wildly for several days was finally confirmed.

Inside the Cao Mansion, Cao Cao and his advisers were discussing something.

Cao Cao couldn't understand Meng Chen's move.

"Any news over there?" Cao Cao looked at Guo Jia and asked.

Right now, Cao Cao and Mengchen don't have much conflict of interest, and the two parties who have already connected online exchange information through special channels from time to time.

"There is news from Chang'an that this move has no other intentions, but to show the might of the great man." Guo Jia drank the wine in his cup and said.

"So good..."

As soon as Cao Cao finished speaking halfway, he saw a servant rushing in in a panic.

"The old man... the old man... met robbers on the road in Xuzhou..." The servant was crying, and there was no need to say the following words.

"Father!" Cao Cao stood up abruptly, then yelled, and passed out.

Meng Chen didn't know what happened in Xudu, and at this moment he was entertaining the countries of the Western Regions.

Of course, by the way, I want to inform the envoys of various countries that they still need to travel east to Xudu to meet the emperor.

"Gentlemen, this governor is ordered by the emperor to recover the Western Regions, and the tribute still needs to go to Xudu."

As soon as this remark came out, the envoys from various countries whispered to each other, Meng Chen's remark was something they did not expect.

Before waiting for the envoys of the Western Regions to speak, Meng Chen continued: "Without the Son of Heaven, there would be no Inspector. The Inspector will choose one or two of your tributes."

After finishing speaking, the envoys from all over the world nodded again.

Meng Chen's words have been made very clear, he will accept what should be accepted, but Xudu must go where the emperor is.

Those who can be envoys are all human beings. If you don't understand the truth, then your life will be in vain!

"Inspector Meng, we are not familiar with the roads in the Central Plains, can we send troops to escort them?" The envoy of the Kucha Kingdom stood up and bowed to Meng Chen.

After the words fell, envoys from various countries echoed their voices.

The road from Yumenguan to Chang'an was guarded by a large army. Occasionally, they encountered a few horse thieves who didn't have long eyes, and they were strangled every minute.

The envoys from various countries don't know how far it is from Chang'an to Xu, but one thing is certain, without the escort of Meng Chen's army, their group might never return.

"This governor will send General Chang to lead [-] cavalry to accompany you. You don't have to worry about safety at all."

After finishing speaking, Mengcheng took up the wine cup in front of him and drank it all in one gulp. The envoys from various countries followed suit, but they didn't want to be choked by the hot wine in the cup.

"Hahaha, the governor forgot to remind, this wine is spicy!"

The banquet kicked off. Due to the large number of envoys, Meng Chen was naturally prepared.

Chen Yaojin, Li Cunxiao, Xue Rengui and other generals appeared in turn.

Half an hour later, Chen Yaojin came to Meng Chen shirtless and holding the wine jar.

"My lord, these people are really cowardly!" Chen Yaojin muttered angrily.

Originally, Chen Yaojin planned to show off, but he didn't expect that envoys from various countries collapsed to the ground after drinking a jar of wine!
