"Your Majesty, you need to think twice about forming an alliance." Xu Shu said.

In Xu Shu's view, Shu Kingdom was powerful enough to not need any help from allies. And the truth was the same.

Furthermore, even if you become an ally now, no matter how good the relationship is, there will be friction. Allies and allies will be in peace when the interests are the same. When interests conflict, they will turn against each other quickly!

"Shi Yuan, what do you think?" Wu Shun asked.

Just now, Pang Tong was inclined to form an alliance.

"Your Majesty, I just didn't think about it carefully, but only thought of the benefits. Combined with the words of Lord Xu Shu, the Central Plains does not need allies." Pang Tong said.

In today's Central Plains, you can get everything you want through your own hands.

"But if it is not an alliance, it is worth making good friends in Rome!" Pang Tong added.

"Of course it's worth getting along well. If we don't get along well with them, how can we go out to bring wealth back with our tea, pottery, and silk?" Wu Shun said with a smile.

"Emperor, how do you inform the Roman envoy?" Zhuge Liang asked.

"No need to inform me, I will invite him to the palace tomorrow, and I will tell him directly." Wu Shundao.

You can become friends without forming alliances, right? Zhongyuan has always been kind and generous, and treats friends, which is excellent.

...

...

Charles returned to the inn and kept walking around the room, feeling very anxious.

He very much hoped that the emperors of the Central Plains would agree to sign a covenant with them, Rome, and fight against their common enemies together.

Diocletian finally found the opportunity for the Persians to go to war with the Central Plains. He sent an envoy and had 50% hoped to sign the agreement successfully.

Thinking of Diocletian's entrustment, Charles was even more anxious as an ant who caused trouble.

After waiting for a night, Charles didn't wait for the result. The next day he was about to fall asleep but was notified by a small yellow gate that the Emperor of Central Plains summoned him and asked him to enter the palace immediately.

The Emperor of Central Plains summoned him, but Charles did not dare to delay and hurriedly followed the little yellow gate to the palace!

Seeing Wu Shun in full spirit, Charles first respectfully performed the etiquette of the Roman Empire.

"His Majesty the Great Central Plains Emperor, I wonder what you are thinking about? When will you alliate with us Romans."

"Alliance? Oh, sorry, Your Excellency Charles, our ministers of Shu Kingdom do not agree to the alliance! They said that our Shu Kingdom only has vassal states and no allies." Wu Shundao.

"I took the liberty to ask all the way, in the Central Plains, is it your Majesty that you make the decision or the ministers make the decision?" Charles waited for a day and a night, and waited for this result. To be honest, he was very unwilling.

"Bold! How dare you question Your Majesty's authority!" Charles's words stimulated Qu'a. In Shu Kingdom, no one dared to speak like this.

Qu'a's momentum is locked in Charles. As long as he dares to talk nonsense again, his head will definitely fall to the ground!

Locked by Qu'a's momentum, Charles fell into an ice cellar, his heart pounding unscrupulously. He knew that the guard beside the Emperor of Central Plains had murderous intentions at him.

"His Majesty, the great Central Plains Emperor, please forgive Charles' offense just now!"

“Hu~Hu~”

After apologizing, Charles felt that the temperature around him was getting higher, his breathing was smoother, and the feeling of depression disappeared.

"His Excellency Charles, our Shu Kingdom does not have a precedent for alliance with other countries. We can handle the wars in the Western Regions ourselves. We are confident in defeating them by the only Persians. Of course, your country needs assistance, and our army can also provide help." Wu Shun said.

It is impossible to form an alliance. Shu Kingdom cannot form an alliance with Rome. At most, it is to maintain a relatively good relationship and help when it can.

"Your Majesty the great Emperor of the Central Plains, you should know that both sides have endless benefits to alliances with us Rome. The Central Plains stand proudly with the East of the world, and Rome lies across the West of the world. As long as our two families form an alliance, the world is ours."

Charles also wanted to fight for it, and he drew a grand blueprint for Wu Shun - to divide the world!

"His Excellency Charles, you may not understand what I mean. Shu does not need an allied country, it only needs a vassal state." Wu Shun said in a true voice.

When he said this, Charles was stunned. It turned out that the Central Plains were also ambitious. If the distance was close, Rome might be regarded as an opponent!

Charles is very glad that Rome is located in the west of the world and does not have to face the powerful Central Plains Empire from the beginning.

Charles also understood what Wu Shun meant. They would not be subordinate to others, and the Central Plains only needed a vassal state. There was no way to talk about alliances. Charles understood that his mission had failed.

On the surface, people in the Central Plains look harmonious but actually very arrogant at heart! They don’t need allies because they are strong enough to get everything they want!

"I feel very sorry that the great Emperor of the Central Plains cannot form an alliance with the Central Plains. We Romans like the goods from the Central Plains very much and hope that our two countries can maintain a good relationship." Charles said.

The alliance cannot be forced, and the relationship must be well-developed! The two countries are far apart and there is still a long time to go on the day of conflict of interests.

"Of course, Your Excellency Charles, please tell His Majesty Diocletian, and say that I appreciate his talent very much. If possible, Zhongyuan is willing to make friends with Rome, benefit and help each other!" Wu Shun said.

He wanted to talk about strategic partnerships, but was worried that Charles understood, so he didn't mention it.

"Please rest assured, Charles will definitely bring your words back! Our Majesty Diocletian has admired you for a long time and will definitely be very willing to make friends with the Central Plains." Charles said.

"That's good. I have prepared a gift for His Majesty Diocletian, and I have prepared a copy for the messenger to show that our friendship lasts for a long time!" Wu Shun waved his hand, and a eunuch brought the gift up.

Charles opened it and saw that it was full of excellent tea and exquisite silk!

"Charles, on behalf of the Roman monarch Diocletian, thanks His Majesty for his gift!"

In Rome, the value of silk and tea was almost the same as gold. Wu Shun gave so much at one time, but it shocked Charles very much.

The silk and tea used in the imperial palace are all top-notch and cannot be bought by the people.

The alliance task was not reached, but after bringing back the gifts and greetings from the Emperor of Central Plains, Charles happily returned to Rome.

I was unable to form an alliance, but I gained favor and recognition from the Central Plains, which is also good!

...

...

In the imperial study, the prince Wu Hao stood respectfully aside, waiting for his father to lose his temper.

The main messenger behind the attack on Zhang Xiong has been found out - Yizhou Official Group!

This group represents the Yizhou group. Because Wu Shun established the capital, they were not valued and became resentful.

As Zhang Xiong "kills innocent people indiscriminately" in Wusun, they came out to show off their presence, hoping that Wu Shun would notice them!

After finding out the causes and consequences of this matter, Wu Shun summoned those people and scolded them in a scattered manner, it would be fine!
