I want to be a good person [Quick Transmigration]

When Bai Jingli was the Minister of the Ministry of War, he went to the northern border twice due to official business.Back then Helzi was just a prince, and they had already hooked up with each other before they became acquainted, and it was Bai Jingli who took the initiative to find Helzi.

In fact, before going to the northern border, Bai Jingli had analyzed the strength of the northern tribes.Although Helzi was unknown at this time, Bai Jingli found through various observations that although the prince was low-key, he was very cunning.What impressed Bai Jingli the most was that despite his extraordinary abilities, he didn't attract the envy of any of his brothers.But nomads are aggressive by nature, and other brothers always have to fight over trifles.But he doesn't fight or grab, knows how to measure, and has a bit of the demeanor of the southern Han people.

Sure enough, Bai Jingli made the right bet.He didn't reveal his identity as the Yu clan, but only expressed his willingness to cooperate in front of Helzi. It's not too late to think about getting ahead in the Great Wei court.

For so many years, Helzi worked hard in the northern border, and finally became the Khan of the headquarters.Because the Great Wei was too strong, he had been a minister and paid tribute for many years, during which time he pretended not to know Bai Jingli.Until a few years ago, a famine caused the treasury of the Wei Dynasty to be more than half empty. Heerqi took the opportunity to join forces with other tribes to invade the northern border and captured three border cities in a row.The front line was tight, the emperor Li Huan was in a hurry, Bai Jingli took the opportunity to offer a strategy to retreat from the enemy, and the front line commander was able to stand up, winning two consecutive victories and regaining the border town.

Although he didn't take much advantage from Wei, but now that his face has been torn apart, it is impossible for Helzi to submit to the south.Wei's internal affairs urgently needed a rest, and Li Huan stopped chasing him fiercely, and only asked Bai Jingli to keep an eye on the border guards.Although Heerqi did not offend the Wei Dynasty again, he led the nomads to feel proud, convinced other ministries, and his prestige was greatly boosted for a while.The nomadic peoples in the north held together, and the Wei Dynasty in the south recuperated, and they lived in peace for several years.

But the superiors knew in their hearts that this was just a moment of calm.There is no way to allow others to sleep peacefully on the couch, no matter the south or the north, they are all waiting for the opportunity to put the other party to death.

Now that Li Zhuoyu came to the throne, and Bai Jingli overshadowed the sky with one hand in Wei, Helzi couldn't sit still, he thought his chance had come.

Bai Jingli personally poured tea for He Erqi, and the blue tea water gave off a delicate fragrance. "The story with King Khan back then was unforgettable to the lower officials, so naturally I will never forget it."

"Master Yu is very discerning, otherwise he would not have found me." Helzi took the cup of tea, sniffed it under his nose, and praised, "Good tea."

Bai Jingli smiled, and then poured tea for himself, "Khan is too famous. The officials dared to think that people are like this tea, as long as they are good enough, no matter what water they use to cook, they will come out with a taste. Khan, It is a dragon and a phoenix among people."

"Sure enough, he is a talented man from the Great Wei Dynasty. His speech is different. I am tired of hearing other flattering words, but I like to hear what Mr. Yu said." He Erqi laughed loudly, bowed his head and took a sip of tea, "The taste is really good, what kind of water is used to soak it?"

"This is the first rain in the beginning of spring. The servants in the mansion were asked by the servants to pick it from the plum blossoms. Then they sealed it in a jar and buried it under a tree. It was just taken out today."

Herzi nodded repeatedly, and drank the tea in one gulp. "You people in the south are meticulous, and you are so particular about drinking tea."

"This is not the best." Bai Jingli sighed, "The snow on Meirui is the top grade, but unfortunately the quantity is small, I only picked a small jar, and it is dedicated to His Majesty."

Herzi put the teacup on the table, "So, although good tea tastes good no matter how it is cooked, it will be more effective when paired with good water, right?"

"Not bad." Bai Jingli nodded, "Good water and good tea complement each other."

Herzi's smile remained unchanged, but he narrowed his eyes slightly: "Then I want to ask Mr. Yu, since you just said that I am good tea, does the land in the northern border count as the best water in the world?"

"The northern territory is sparsely populated, and the folk customs are simple, which is naturally good. But the sky is big, and who can say that the benefits are unique?" The tea in Bai Jingli's hand was full of blue waves, and he raised his eyes to look at He Erqi: "King Khan's meaning, all the officials understand."

Helzi nodded with a smile: "Master Yu is a smart man. A few days ago, some slaves in our department refused to obey the discipline. After injuring the soldiers guarding them, they ran to the border of Wei. Only when I knew about it did I realize that they were doing anything wrong. , causing a bad influence on Wei."

It was obvious that the soldiers from Heerqi's army attacked the border town, but it was said that some escaped slaves were messing around. Bai Jingli looked surprised: "There is such a thing? These slaves are too hateful, and they will only cause trouble for the Khan. "

"I've already dealt with them." Herzi said lightly, "I'm here this time to make amends to the new emperor for this matter."

Bai Jingli frowned: "King Khan wants to see His Majesty?"

"Of course." Helzi said, "The new emperor is young and promising. I have heard about it in the northern border, and I will take this opportunity to open my eyes. What do you think, Master Yu?"

Bai Jingli suppressed his emotions and asked him: "King Khan's idea is very good, but I don't know... how many northern warriors will follow you to open this horizon?"

"Ten." Herzi looked at him, "Do you believe it?"

A khan king of an enemy country went to the imperial capital of the Great Wei without hesitation, and only brought ten people with him?Only fools believe it.Bai Jingli nodded: "All the officials will believe what the King Khan says."

"Okay, Master Yu is refreshing." Helzi laughed again, and pushed the teacup towards Bai Jingli, "Please also invite Master Yu to serve you, good tea must not be missed in vain."

Bai Jingli stood up and poured tea for him again. At this juncture, Helqi said seriously: "Since Lord Yu is so sincere, then I will ask Lord Yu to make preparations for the king to enter the palace."

Bai Jingli handed the teacup to him, and smiled, "Naturally, the next official will hand over this matter to Zhichen immediately."

"Well, Zhichen is Lord Yu's confidant, he will take care of it, you and I can rest assured."

------------------------------

The first major event that Li Zhuoyu personally appeared after ascending the throne was meeting with Herzi.

Under Bai Jingli's cover-up, the military riot connived by Helzi was downplayed as trouble caused by defected slaves.Although the courtiers complained about this explanation, Li Zhuoyu endured it, and Bai Jingli blindly spoke good words for Helzi, so it was inconvenient for them to say anything more.

In addition, He Erqi threatened that he was here to seek peace, so Li Zhuoyu arranged the meeting in the Imperial Garden, and at Bai Jingli's suggestion, he brought all the officials to entertain him with a feast.

And Helzi probably wanted to show his sincerity, he only brought two attendants with him that night, and he didn't seem to pose any threat.

The red plum blossoms in the imperial garden were in full bloom. Due to the cold weather, everyone was holding something like Tang Pozi stove to keep out the cold.Li Zhuoyu sat on the stage, and there were more than twenty layers of jade steps below.Bai Jingli and He Erqi sat with the ministers in the open space surrounded by flower beds, and the status of the two sides was judged.

Li Zhuoyu asked He Erqi: "It's winter at the end of the year, does King Khan know why I chose to hold a banquet outside?"

Since he was sitting on a high platform, Helzi had to raise his head slightly when talking to him: "The plum blossoms in the imperial garden are beautiful, but there are none in the northern border. Your Majesty wants little Wang to learn more?"

Li Zhuoyu smiled and shook his head: "Plum blossoms are indeed pleasant, but I didn't intend for them. Come on, let's start."

With an order, several guards carried a large red-hot stove into the center of the open space.

The officials looked over one after another, and there was a strong charcoal fire inside, and a whole sheep was supported on an iron frame.The sheep had been skinned and spiced. It had almost passed the test, and its fat body was oozing with oil.

He Erqi couldn't help laughing: "Isn't this the roasted whole lamb on the prairie to the north of me? Unexpectedly, there is such an authentic method in the Great Wei Palace."

Elder Xu Ge said slowly, "That's natural. My Great Wei has a vast land and rich resources, and there are many capable people and strange people. Even the cooks in the imperial dining room come from all over the world. This roasted whole lamb is not a rare item."

Helzi looked over with a smile: "My lord is right, roasted whole lamb is indeed not uncommon. But the emperor likes it, so I can only let you eat a few more bites with me."

Elder Xu Ge originally wanted to run on Helzi, insinuating that their nomads were nothing special.But Helzi calmly reminded him that even if he was great, the emperor would be afraid, and he had to compromise, and he had to hold back no matter how he refused to accept it.

Elder Xu Ge stared straight at him, and Bai Jingli gave him a look: "Ge is old, his spleen and stomach can't handle too greasy food, just eat in moderation."

Li Zhuoyu seemed to have never heard of the treacherous situation below, and said to He Erqi: "King Khan has a taste, is this the original Roasted Whole Lamb?"

"Your Majesty loves me so much, Xiao Wang should eat more."

He Erqi would not refuse anyone who came, and he specially ordered the meat cutter to pick up big pieces for him.He didn't dip any sauce, and sprinkled coarse salt to feast on it. The stench made the nearby maids frown.

After drinking for three rounds, everyone was a little smoky, and their faces were flushed by the charcoal fire of the roasted lamb.

Helzi drank heavily and ate meat. He was more drunk than others. He stood up staggeringly, but suddenly fell to the ground.Li Zhuoyu hurriedly asked: "King Khan is drunk? How about helping him back to rest?"

"No, I'm not drunk." He Erqi climbed a few steps forward on hands and feet, knelt directly at the foot of the jade steps, and said with his tongue out, "Your Majesty, I, Her Qi, did not intend to make things difficult for Wei. It's been years of drought and the pasture is not abundant, and I just made a mistake in a moment of confusion a few years ago. This time those slaves are making trouble, it's really not Xiao Wang's intention."

As he spoke, he supported the railing on the jade steps to stabilize his body, his mouth was full of alcohol, and he seemed quite drunk.

Li Zhuoyu got up slowly: "King Khan has already said these words during the day, I believe that King Khan didn't mean it, so get up quickly."

"But Xiao Wang feels bad." Helzi said, even wiping away tears, "Dawei is rich in products, and the people live and work in peace and contentment. But we have nothing in the northern border, and people starve to death every day, let alone cattle and sheep. ...Xiao Wang has unified all the ministries in the northern border, and now he leads the people back under the command of the Great Wei, may I ask His Majesty if he agrees?"

He actually said such a big thing by being drunk, without any warning, the officials immediately discussed it.

Li Zhuoyu frowned slightly: "King Khan is quite drunk, it's better to go back to the bedroom and rest earlier."

Helzi pushed away the eunuch who came to help him, "Your Majesty doesn't believe what I say from the bottom of my heart, well, I won't get up!"

Li Zhuoyu sighed, and personally stepped down the jade steps to help him, "King Khan, get up quickly, we will discuss this matter later."

The moment his hand came into contact with Herzi's arm, Herzi's drunken eyes suddenly lit up. At the same time, he pulled out a soft sword folded into a ball from his waist with one hand, and quickly Swipe towards Li Zhuoyu's neck.
