Call of the Heroes of Chaos in Another World

Chapter 1928 Xuanyuan asks for marriage, one of the Five Emperors, the Emperor visits Nangong

The empress did not need Cangjie and Xuanyuan Jingcheng to urge her. Knowing the current situation of Great Yan, she naturally understood that Great Yan was seriously lacking in stamina and time was very tight for them.

Therefore, Xuanyuan Jingcheng was arranged to join the military as soon as possible.

However, the distance between Cang and Wu was so far that even if they did not waste a moment and even if the troop transports ran day and night, it would take Xuanyuan Jingcheng thirty-seven days to reach the capital of Dawu.

Xuanyuan Huang was indeed a monarch with great courage. He directly let Xuanyuan Jingcheng bring their bargaining chips into Dawu. He was not worried at all that Dawu would swallow their things and not agree to their conditions.

No one had expected this. Even Feng Hou and other confidants had always thought that the things were still in Xuanyuan Huang's hands. After all, who would give out their chips before the cooperation was even negotiated? Isn't this just waiting to be slaughtered?
However, although Xuanyuan Huang had no direct contact with the Emperor of Dawu, he knew that the Emperor of Dawu was not an ordinary person, but a great leader, and he would not fail to see the pros and cons behind this. In order to accomplish this as soon as possible, he needed to show his sincerity.

In fact, the Dawu court was as one-sided as expected, and almost no one expressed any opposition.

As far as Dahan was concerned, the Tuoba tribe had recently accelerated its efforts to divide and win over the Zhenbei Army, and it was obvious that they wanted to resolve the obstacle of the Zhenbei Army as soon as possible.

But it was also because of this that the Zhenbei Army was unable to look south, and Xue Rengui's army could unscrupulously intimidate the small Hexi court.

This incident also attracted the attention of the Golden Horde. The Golden Horde and the Tuoba tribe were also eyeing each other covetously, and now, it was obvious that a storm was about to come.

In particular, after the marriage between the Han Dynasty and the Golden Horde, the two families quickly established business ties, and merchants from the Han Dynasty and the Golden Horde passed through the river, making this trade route even more prosperous.

The Golden Horde also used this trade route to purchase the food they desperately needed.

Therefore, at this time, even if they were showing their teeth to the Tuoba tribe, they were not afraid at all. They would fight, and the Golden Horde had never been afraid of war from ancient times to the present.

All these things caused the whole body to be affected. The pressure on the Dawu Dynasty in the north was suddenly reduced.

At this time, by supporting Zhongcang and Dayan to stabilize the security of their eastern border, Dawu will be able to free up its hands to deal with Dou Jiande who is always jumping around inside.

In the past one or two years, Wang Yu sent several people to contact Dou Jiande and Daqin many times. Tianwu Academy was no pushover in this matter and received any news.

Wang Yu caused them trouble, so they didn't mind causing some trouble for Wang Yu at this time.

However, it is worth mentioning that after Xuanyuan Jingcheng came to Dawu, he proposed to Dawu to marry Dawu Princess Wu Zhao on behalf of Xuanyuan Huang Changzi.

Xuanyuan Huang, Huangfu Guyuan, Huangfu Guhan, Zhao Kuangyin, and Wang Yu are the most active forces in Yuan Da Cang today.

In terms of status and position, these five are figures of the same generation.

But if we talk about age, Zhao Kuangyin, Wang Yu and others should be of the same generation as Xuanyuan Huang, Huangfu Guyuan and Huangfu Guhan.

The oldest of Xuanyuan Huang's children were about the same age as Zhao Kuangyin and Wang Yu, only about one or two years older. From this perspective, they were of the same generation.

At this time, Xuanyuan Huang's eldest son had naturally reached the stage of discussing marriage.

However, as Xuanyuan Huang's eldest son, he is likely to be the successor of Da Yan's business in the future, so he is naturally very cautious about choosing his legal wife. Therefore, until now, there is still no suitable candidate.

When Xuanyuan Jingcheng met Wu Zhao, after several contacts, he suddenly had this idea.

Wu Zhao, no matter in terms of appearance, family background, ability, etc., is no longer a match for them. In fact, they are still marrying up. After all, Da Yan is indeed inferior to Da Wu in many aspects.

However, if this matter succeeds, it will definitely be a win-win situation for Dayan.

Firstly, His Highness now had a virtuous wife, which solved a long-standing worry for them.

Secondly, Dayan will have an additional strong ally, and this ally will not cause any conflict of interest for a long time.

After all, when it comes down to it, the two companies are too far away from each other.

Thirdly, it can also improve the external environment of Da Yan.

As various forces successively established dynasties and proclaimed themselves emperors, cracks began to appear in the original alliance between them.

When the Zhao Song Dynasty was established, there were many celestial-level masters who took action, but among them were people from Dong Cang. Even An Zaitian was trapped in Kaifeng during that battle.

From then on, the three companies were just alliances of two of them and were no longer the three-party alliance they once were.

If Dong Cang had not been at his weakest at that time, when Dayan was founded, the relationship between Dayan and Dong Cang might not have been maintained.

However, it is conceivable that the relationship between these families will not last long. Therefore, at that time, Da Yan needed to seek assistance from new external forces and open up new international cooperation relationships.

Da Wu is extremely suitable in every aspect.

…………

"Although I have never seen Xuanyuan Huang's son, I have heard of him. He is a talented young man!"

"It's just that marrying Mingkong to him..." When talking about this issue, Emperor Dawu hesitated for a moment. Obviously, in his subconscious, he was not satisfied with this marriage.

There were not many people present to discuss this matter with Emperor Dawu, including the left and right prime ministers, the crown prince, Wu Bing'er, and two old princes from the royal family.

The marriage of the princesses of the dynasty was both a family affair and a state affair. Even as the emperor, it was not easy for him to make the decision alone, so he called in several representatives of court officials and clan members to discuss the matter.

"Among Da Cang's younger generation, this child is indeed the most famous at the moment!"

"And Xuanyuan Huang, from what I have seen, is a man of both civil and military abilities. He is good at governing the country, commanding troops, and charging into battle. He is proficient in everything!"

"I'm afraid no one in Da Cang can match him!" Wu Bing'er was the first to speak. The brief end of the Xirong War did leave Xuanyuan Huang with a very good impression.

Among the leaders of various forces in Da Cang, Wu Bing'er believed that, as far as she knew, Xuanyuan Huang should be the one who dominated the field. It was a pity that the capital he started with was too low. Now, Da Yan's strength was the last among the former Da Cang families.

As for Xuanyuan Huang's eldest son, no one present had seen him. However, among the younger generation of Da Cang, excluding Wang Yu, Lie Feiyang and Zhao Kuangyin, who were already the leaders of the same generation as their fathers, he was indeed the most famous at present.

Among the new generation of the Great Cang's top ten geniuses, Xuanyuan Huang's eldest son is ranked first and is recognized to have inherited his father's style.

Even among the princes of the seven dynasties, this one is the best.

Of course, they had never seen the princes of the seven dynasties except the prince of Dawu. The current judgment was based only on the information that had been spread.

Of course, in fact, among the princes of the seven dynasties, Xuanyuan Huang’s eldest son, Xuanyuan Xuanxiao, is indeed ranked among the top in terms of ability.

Xuanyuan Huang was one of the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors, and his eldest son was the White Emperor, one of the Five Emperors. The template of the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors was certainly not something that anyone from the same generation of the Seven Dynasties could just copy.

Huangdi's eldest son Xuanxiao, like his father, is also listed as the ancestor of Chinese civilization. He was born in Qiongsang. Like Taihao, he was the ancestor and leader of the Dongyi tribe in ancient times. Because he practiced Taihao's method, he was called Shaohao.

"Imperial niece, Xuanyuan Huang may be a great leader, and Xuanyuan Xuanxiao may be a rare young talent in the world!"

"However, Dayan is in danger of collapse!" said one of the two elders from the royal family.

If Wu Bing'er only objectively expressed her impression of Xuanyuan Huang and did not clearly express her attitude towards this matter, then the tone of this old prince from the royal family was naked opposition.

In his opinion, no matter how outstanding the abilities of Xuanyuan Huang and Xuanyuan Xuanxiao are, ability is only one of the factors to be considered. The most fundamental thing is interests.

If Da Yan was gone, the benefits of the marriage between the two families would be rootless. Therefore, Da Yan must first survive before it is eligible to marry the princess of Da Wu. Otherwise, everything would be meaningless.

"Aunt, uncle, I heard that when Xuanyuan Xuanxiao was born, flocks of black birds circled in the sky above him for a long time, which is exactly the same as what happened to the Emperor!" Prince Dawu said jokingly.

Prince Dawu did say it in a joking tone, but no one present took it seriously as a joke.

According to the legend, their ancestor, the Great Emperor Shenwu, was the Heavenly Mandate Xuanniao, who descended to become Wu, and the Xuanniao became the totem of his Great Wu. At this time, Xuanyuan Xuanxiao and Xuanniao were linked together. How could there be no intention behind the words of the Great Wu Crown Prince?
"The Great Yan Kingdom is weak and may be destroyed by the Han Dynasty. The marriage is ultimately inappropriate!" The Left Prime Minister also spoke up, expressing his opposition very clearly.

As early as when he proposed to contact Cang Qiang, between Huangfu Guyuan and Xuanyuan Huang, he had firmly set his target on Huangfu Guyuan.

In troubled times, weakness is the original sin. What they need is a powerful ally, not an ally with potential. Potential needs time to be realized. No matter how capable Xuanyuan Huang is, it will be useless if he is not given time to develop.

Moreover, this prime minister was born into a typical aristocratic family. Some of the actions of the Tianshi Dao also showed their class stance, which made the prime minister disagree with many of them.

"Actually, it doesn't matter if you agree to it for now!"

"As long as Your Majesty does not show up and there is no formal written agreement, it will only be a verbal joke! In the future, if there is anything inappropriate, it will just be a joke!" The other of the two prime ministers also expressed his opinion.

Even if this kind of thing was agreed to, as long as it was not agreed by the emperor but a minister asked for it privately, and there was no formal document exchanged between the two families, the worst that could happen was that they could just postpone it later.

Even if we take a step back, Da Yan might be destroyed by the Han Dynasty someday. At that time, Xuanyuan Xuanxiao might be one of the burial objects of Da Yan. If all the people are gone, the so-called agreement, which is just a verbal agreement, has no meaning at all.

"In this case, it is not impossible to make adjustments!"

Although Wu Bing'er looked down on this kind of thing that was intended to break the promise from the very beginning, when it came to matters concerning family and country, as someone who was born into a royal family, she was able to distinguish the priorities.

She does have a certain inclination on this matter.

In her opinion, if they want to prevent the Han Dynasty from becoming the only powerful country in the Great Cang today and reduce the threat from the east, they still have to rely on Xuanyuan Huang and buy him time to develop.

If it were anyone else, I'm afraid they wouldn't be able to stop the Han army.

"Okay! Let's do this matter according to the Right Prime Minister's wishes!" Emperor Dawu nodded.

He himself looked down on the national strength of Da Yan. However, at this stage, Da Wu needed Da Yan to fight against Da Han and strive for a peaceful environment in the east of Da Wu so that they would not be disturbed in what they did next.

At this time, Wu Zhao, who was far away in Da Cang, had no idea that Xuanyuan Jingcheng had already taken advantage of her instead of Xuanyuan Xuanxiao. Moreover, Da Wu also had the intention to agree, although it was a verbal consent without any effect.

At this time, she was helping Cangjie visit the Nangong family.

On the Zhongcang side, Huangfu Guyuan was able to achieve rapid development after suffering continuous setbacks in the war, which was inseparable from the support of a number of aristocratic families represented by the Nangong Nangong family.

Although most of the power of these noble families seemed to be pushed here because of the relationship with Tianshi Dao, it cannot be denied that while these noble families allowed Huangfu Guyuan's power to develop rapidly, they also made these noble families have a very deep influence in Zhongcang, and the most representative of them is naturally the Nangong family, one of the four merchants.

If this person is not dealt with, Dawu's food will never be able to cross Henan Road and reach Dayan's hands.

Especially, ever since the incident with Tianshi Dao, Dayan and Nangong have been ready to fight to the death when they meet. If they don't find ways to make the Nangong family give in, these things will inevitably become a huge obstacle.

Wu Zhao was so concerned about the affairs of Da Yan, but it was impossible that she really cared about Da Yan. Everything she did was fundamentally for the benefit of Da Wu. It was precisely because these things were beneficial to Da Wu that she did them.

Although he had only been in Da Cang for more than half a year, he had clearly seen that Zhong Cang alone was indeed unable to stop the big man's pace.

If we don't help Dayan at this time, it is very likely that the Han Dynasty will take care of Zhongcang, Dongcang and Dayan together. At that time, the Han Dynasty's momentum to unify the original eighteen paths of Dacang will be unstoppable.

Once the other party unifies the eighteen paths of the original Da Cang, he will become a threat to Da Wu Da.

In particular, she never forgot that the Han Dynasty and the Golden Horde were still relatives by marriage.

If these two families invaded Dawu at the same time, Dawu would really be in danger of being destroyed.
