The History of the Empress of the Shang Dynasty

Chapter 335
"I received a report from the King of Zhennan a few days ago. It is said that the last retreat was due to the sudden illness of the King of Southern Border. I am afraid that his life will not be long. The southern border is in turmoil. Naturally, I dare not launch a war at this time."

"However, it is a pity that the King of Southern Border has only one son, but he has been missing for a long time. I am afraid that he will never be found again. In that case, the next King of Southern Border is very likely to be the current King of War."

"The king of war is vicious and vicious, and he is the most belligerent. He provoked several wars between my Tianqi and Nanjiang. If he becomes the king of Nanjiang, I am afraid that Tianqi will be the first to deal with him."

"So, plan ahead. Our country's military strength is already weak. If we don't have powerful weapons and equipment, how can we compete with the King of War in Southern Border?"

Ling Ao was so worried that he actually confessed everything.

Su Nuo didn't understand politics, so he could hear the bitterness in it.

Yes, although the agriculture of the Tianqi Kingdom is not bad, but in recent years there have been many natural disasters, commerce is underdeveloped, and there is no strong treasury to support it. In addition, there is only one iron mine in the country that has been hollowed out. In the eyes of other countries, , I am afraid that Tianqi Kingdom is a lamb waiting to be slaughtered, right?
"Young Master Su Nuo, this money is a great help, I should reward you well."

Unexpectedly, the emperor changed the subject so quickly, Su Nuo was slightly taken aback, thinking to himself that he was thinking too much.

The emperor told him about this military matter, perhaps because he was depressed and had no one to talk to. After all, to be an emperor is to endure loneliness. The throne, but who knows the truth of being too cold at a high place?
It seems that the front is just chatter, and the latter is the focus of today.

"Your Majesty, His Majesty deserves that part, and the grassroots dare not take credit for it."

Su Nuo is telling the truth, and it is precisely because of the celebrity advertising effect of His Majesty that the business of Huan Man Tang and Compass is so good.

It was precisely because His Majesty's identity was held there that no one dared to make trouble in those two shops, otherwise something bad might happen!
"Okay, good, young, not taking credit, not greedy for money, and being able to think about the country, is much better than those hypocritical ministers under me. It's just a pity that I can't give you an official position now, but I have wronged you."

Cold sweat immediately broke out on Su Nuo's head: "Official position?"

Fortunately, His Majesty can figure it out, how could he be an official?Even if conditions permit, it is impossible for him to be an official, let alone a woman!
"However, I can't treat you badly. I can see that Princess Xue'er is interested in you and wants to recruit you as a son-in-law, so that you can work for me in an open and honest manner. Are you willing?"

gah...

Su Nuo felt crows flying around his head.

This is not a reward, it is clearly a disaster!
"The grass people are terrified, the grass people are humble, I'm afraid they are not worthy of Princess Xue'er!"

Su Nuo's legs trembled, and he hurriedly knelt down: Marry a princess?He has a sick mind to be willing!
Not to mention that he is a woman, even if he is a normal man, he absolutely does not want to marry a princess back home. Although he also likes the princess's temperament, he is really not interested in putting on a female consort!

The corners of Ling Ao's eyes narrowed slightly, seeing that Su Nuo seemed to be frightened like this, his reaction was almost the same as he expected: it's hard for this child, anyone would be very pleasantly surprised when they heard this reward.

(Emperor, you are thinking too much, Su Nuo is not surprised, but frightened! What kind of reward is this!)
