Chapter 206: Hiding the Dirt

When Huo Tianliang heard this, he immediately collapsed on the ground again, his face was sweating profusely, and his eyes were just begging to look at Xun Xiu. Whether he could save his life could only see if Xun Xiu could tell Ye Tiannan.

"What if it's not in Yan State?" Xun Xiu said softly.

Ye Tiannan was dawn, "Donghu is adjacent to my Dayan, not bordering other countries in the Central Plains. As long as my Dayan does not trade salt and iron with him, how can other countries bypass us?"

"Tiannan." Xun Xiu pulled Ye Tiannan, "You forgot that there are still Huns."

Ye Tiannan laughed, "Where did the Huns come from? They are still missing!"

"The Huns bordered the State of Zhao and connected to the Donghu." Xun Xiudao: "If we don't do it, the Donghu people broke this line, and they will definitely try their best to find other sources of goods. Zhao is now an enemy of us, we turn against Zhao, and the Donghu people are our border enemies. How could Zhao not seize this opportunity? If we do it, we can also control the amount of salt and iron imported into the Donghu. If the Zhao people do it, then it will be uncontrollable. Since that is the case, why don't we do it? With the country, we have no shame, and for ourselves, we can also harvest a lot of wealth."

"Now the State of Zhao and the Huns are about to fight?" After hearing Xun Xiu's words, Ye Tiannan pondered.

Xun Xiu laughed, "Tiannan, you are in a state of confusion. War is war, and business is business. Will there be no trade between the Huns and Zhao State? There is no trade between them? It is not on the surface, nor in private? What's more, will this war continue? There will always be a day when the Huns fight, but they have no character. The Zhao people's Hu clothes and horses are riding and shooting. Where did they come from? Could it be that they raised them by themselves? Of course not, they got them from the Huns."

Ye Tiannan sat dejectedly on the chair, "Although the sir makes sense, I feel very uncomfortable when thinking about this behavior, I think it is so different from the enemy."

"Tiannan, everything is not black or white. Some things, if you look at them from one perspective, they will be another vast sky! The relationship between countries has never been simple enemies and friends. Just like Qi, they used to be our friends, and they helped us achieve great things, but should we cater to Qi in the next thing? If you are wrong, we will only do what is beneficial to us. As for Qi to help us, they have already received rewards because we have to tear up the alliance with Zhao, restrained Zhao, and eased the pressure on Zhao. After we fought with Zhao, we were another world." Xun Xiu said slowly.

"I understand this principle." Ye Tiannan Road.

"You flatly rejected the fact that Qi wanted to marry their princess to the king and wife, and turned to the king and asked the princess to marry the Chu princess. This was done very well, but why did you reject the Donghu people so much?" Xun Xiu said with a smile.

"We and the Donghu people can also ask them to pay the bill by war horses. They need salt and iron. We need war horses and each get their needs. In the past, Linghu Chao was stupid and only knew that gold, silver and jewelry were needed, but he did not know that war horses were more expensive. When we got war horses, whether they strengthened the Ye family's private army or sold them to the court, they could make greater profits. As for what you said about the two families going to fight in the future?" Xun Xiu laughed, "Can we sell salt and iron to Donghu, but we can't win? By the same token, if the Donghu people sell war horses to us, will they think our cavalry will be stronger than them?"

Ye Tiannan took a deep breath, "I understand, thank you sir for your teaching!"

Xun Xiu smiled and said, "You have understood a long time ago that you are just a little psychologically resistant. Tiannan, only if you pass this level can you become a truly excellent prime minister."

Ye Tiannan turned to look at Huo Tianliang on the ground, and a strong disgust appeared on his face, "But I am a little worried about such a big deal, if I leave such a person."

"This person is not bad, but he has a grudge with his ladies, and he can't help but feel a little scared." Xun Xiu smiled at Huo Tianliang on the ground and said, "You go out first. The Prime Minister of the State does not care about the villain's life, and the grudges of the past will be eliminated. In the future, he will do his best to do things for the Prime Minister and atone for his sins. The Prime Minister of the State is not Linghu Chao, so he will never let you lose your fate."

Huo Tianliang wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, knowing that he had picked up this life, he knelt on the ground and kowtowed three times to Ye Tiannan, "Thank you, Lord Guo, Huo Tianliang will be a cow and horse for the Prime Minister in the future to repay kindness."

"Go out and wait below. The Prime Minister will ask you later." Xun Xiu waved.

"Yes, yes!" Huo Tianliang got up and went out of the room.

"Sir, do you believe in such a person so much?" Ye Tiannan was really surprised when he looked at Xun Xiu.

"This person is not as cowardly as you see!" Xun Xiu smiled and said, "The Huo family was destroyed, and only he escaped. In order to save his life, this person destroyed his face and became the current appearance of being neither human nor ghost. Being able to escape all the way to the old nest of Linghu Chao in Jicheng under the huge power of the Linghu family, it can be seen that this person is still a little courageous. If a person encounters such a big change, it is inevitable that his mind will change greatly. He either gives up on himself or encourages himself. How do you think I discovered him?"

"Just want to ask for advice."

"He came to the door by himself." Xun Xiu smiled and said, "I obviously have a lot of grudges with my wife, but I dare to come to the door, but I don't look for others. I just came to me. I looked at him with admiration."

Ye Tiannan laughed loudly, "If he finds someone, he will lose his life on the spot. Only the gentleman will listen to him finish his words. This person is really interesting."

"He also brought another meeting gift!" Xun Xiu said with a smile.

"That is the account of Linghu Chao smuggling salt and iron over the years and publishing it to the public. Linghu Chao is a great cause for the country. We have a reasonable and justified approach to overthrow Linghu Chao."

Ye Tiannan smiled bitterly when he heard this, "But next, I will become a major defilement in this country!"

"The successful one becomes the king, the defeated one becomes the enemy, and the Linghu clan will not fall. How can these things be seen in the light of heaven and vice versa? If the Ye clan does not fall, you will always be a great wise man in the country." Xun Xiu laughed.

"Although Huo Zhu is dead and Linghu is swept away by us, the lower-level networks under Huo Zhu's control are still there. As long as the network is there, it will not be difficult to connect them again."

"Sir, go and do this, I'll just ask!" Ye Tiannan said with a smile.
