Three Kingdoms: Bandit Cao, let go of that woman!

Chapter 542
Zhao Yun had already brought reinforcements, Jiang Wei and the other party retreated temporarily, and the news came back.

Cao Peng didn't blame Jiang Wei for retreating on his own initiative. On the contrary, he hoped to stop for a while.

"Your Majesty, since the reinforcements are at the end, I will be willing to go out again. This time, I will guide Huanglong to bring back the Queen of the Guishuang Empire and become your majesty's concubine."

After hearing Jiang Wei's loyal words, Cao Peng really wanted to laugh.

"Boyo, you really..."

King Yueshi had told Cao Peng before that the queen of the Guishuang Empire had the beauty of a country and a city.

If he really tied her back, he might be so happy.

For Cao Peng, this battle to the Western Regions is not only to conquer the land, but also to conquer the women of the Western Regions.

It's just that with his current status, he can no longer speak so clearly.

"Bo Yue, help me pass on the order to cut off the trade between the 36 countries in the Western Regions and the Guishuang Empire."

As soon as Cao Peng said the words, Jiang Wei's expression changed immediately.

"Your Majesty, if this is the case, what should we do if someone turns against us?"

After all, in this land of the Western Regions, they are not farming peoples, nor are they nomadic peoples, what they rely on is doing business.

Each of the 36 countries has its own characteristics, and many of their things have exchanges with the Guishuang Empire.

Cutting off their source of income is like killing their parents.

I'm afraid that these guys who just took refuge in Wei will suddenly turn back.

Cao Peng laughed and said, "Bo Yue, why are you still missing the point?

You don't know how to turn your head like this, how can you let me rest assured and hand over the army to your hands? "

Jiang Wei still didn't understand, he could only look at Cao Peng in a daze, waiting for the other party's answer.

"We told them not to do business with the Guishuang Empire, and then let them do business with the Great Wei, or it's over!"

After Cao Peng finished speaking, Jiang Wei understood immediately. He patted his forehead to show that he was such a fool!

……

Immediately after such a measure was implemented, it was immediately like a killer trick, causing an uproar.

The merchants of the Guishuang Empire were lost. After trading with the 36 countries in the Western Regions, there was a backlog of goods and bankruptcy was not uncommon.

More and more people are directly pointing their fingers at the queen.

At this time, Queen Guishuang frowned after hearing these reports, and she was also very helpless.

In desperation, he had to call the national teacher over to discuss state affairs with him.

The national teacher of Guishuang Empire is a very capable old man. This guy is very knowledgeable.

It's just that his temper was too upright, so he offended Her Majesty the Queen not long ago.

Has been demoted from the palace, this time it can be regarded as a rebirth.

After the old man came in, he yelled: "Your Majesty has been advised not to provoke that Cao Peng, not to provoke Da Wei, but Your Majesty just didn't listen, it's too late to regret now!"

I knew that this old guy would annoy me when he came, but Queen Guishuang was still patient.

Until she couldn't bear it anymore, Queen Guishuang said with gloomy eyes:
"Then Cao Peng just won by luck, and I haven't lost yet!"

However, the old man had a smile as if he cared for a child, which made the Queen almost want someone to pull him out and chop him up.

"Hey!"

Everyone knows that their master is a master who will not admit defeat, but this is still the case at this point.

So Cao Peng's strength is there, but for Queen Guishuang, he doesn't take it seriously.

"Old man, if you have no idea about this matter, get out!" Queen Guishuang said directly and coldly.

During the years, the other party got mad, and the old man stopped carrying it. He said:
"Your Majesty, I'm sorry for the old minister's blunt words. Enemies should be settled rather than tied. One of Wei and us is a powerful country in the West, and the other is a powerful country in the East. Can't we get along peacefully?"

After hearing the old man's words, Queen Guishuang's face became even more gloomy:
"I didn't expect you to be so pedantic. Could it be that you still can't see that Cao Peng is clearly trying to drive us to a dead end?!"

The national teacher said with a smile: "Your Majesty, until now, still doesn't know whether internal optimization is important or external enemies are important."

Queen Guishuang was taken aback, "You have said similar questions before, but I don't understand."

The national teacher said: "In today's Guishuang Empire, there are many internal forces who are covetous. They are our potential powerful enemies. They threaten your majesty's position!"

Speaking of this step, Queen Guishuang's face turned completely cold.

That's right, it can be said that the Frost Empire is not monolithic, and it is not as powerful as it appears on the surface.

There are many disputes within the empire.

For example, several of his blood-related elder brothers and younger brothers are all eyeing her throne.

Many assassinations have also occurred, and even a few times really threatened the life of Queen Guishuang.

Regarding these domestic chaotic parties, the queen has taken great pains, but there is still no way to deal with them.

"National Teacher, what should I do if you want to talk about it?" The queen sighed.

The national teacher said: "At this time, the Guishuang Empire's spirit-killing trough is a huge and powerful enemy. We might as well divert the disaster to the east and bring the internal conflicts to the outside."

"This can temporarily suppress the battle between the Guishuang Empire's royal family, and it can also take the opportunity to weaken those who plot against Wang Wei."

Queen Guishuang listened to this suggestion, he thought for a long time, and finally nodded.

"Tomorrow I will be in the morning court, so I will send three princes to the front line, and see what they say."

……

Morning morning the next day.

Above the Guishuang Empire Hall, everyone stood here with their hands down.

They waited quietly for the queen on the throne to give orders.

The ministers and ministers above this hall are all assigned factions to stand.

From this point alone, we can get a glimpse of some of the chaos in the Guishuang Empire.

For every prince and every ruling general, they have corresponding forces behind them to support them.

And Her Majesty seems to have become another faction.

The queen gritted her teeth in hatred for this behavior of standing in line publicly, but there was nothing she could do.

"Your Majesty, we have waited for so long, is it possible that the court meeting is not going to start yet?"

Someone jumped out first and said sharply.

Queen Guishuang saw this person clearly, and her face sank.

This guy is called Prince Xue Rui, and in terms of seniority, he can be regarded as the Queen's uncle.

But in such a royal family, there is no family affection to talk about.

Her uncle didn't have any respect for her, but only wished for her death all the time.

"Prince Xue Rui, please stay calm. I have something important to say at the court meeting today." The queen said in a deep voice.
