The System Forces Me to Be the Emperor

"I don't object to you wanting to kill Cao Lu, but why do you want to take advantage of the big event of the alliance between the two countries, and you also wrote it is my idea!" Yan Linglong didn't want to fight at first, but the more she thought about it, the more she felt that the pot was too dark, and it was not good for her to recite it. .

Xiao Rui dried up the ink on the contract, glanced at Yan Linglong, and said, "What's the relationship between us? Is it still so fine?"

Yan Linglong's eyes widened immediately, and she shouted, "You speak clearly! Fortunately, there is no one else in this room."

"Oh, then I'll call someone and say it again." Xiao Rui got up and wanted to leave.

Yan Linglong said angrily: "Xiao Rui! Don't be a rascal!"

"This is the true nature of a man, you have never seen me as a rascal." Xiao Rui winked.

Yan Linglong was so angry that she gritted her teeth and said, "You write this request in the contract, how will the world think of me? They say that I am murderous? I will retaliate? Small belly?"

"You're scolding me in disguise, aren't you? Hey, I actually have my own reasons." Xiao Rui sighed.

Yan Linglong looked suspiciously, I believe you a ghost!

"That's it, we have experienced life and death anyway, so we can be regarded as good buddies." Xiao Rui became familiar with her, so he could joke around naturally.

Yan Linglong smiled and said: "Okay, then you can increase the price of buying my ore from the Great Yan Kingdom!"

Xiao Rui said righteously: "Brothers talk about money, and it hurts feelings."

"Get out! Who has feelings for you. Please pay attention to the tone of your words, King Xian. I am Princess Dayan. If you speak lightly, don't blame me for telling Emperor Xia to punish you for disrespect." Yan Linglong resisted.

Xiao Rui curled his lips and said: "Frivolous words? You have never seen frivolous bodies. Cao Lu must die. I can't explain it to you, but there are real difficulties. Let's do this. I can't increase the value of the ore, but sell it to everyone. How about if I lower the price of products from Yan Kingdom by a little bit, it will be considered as a thank you gift and an apology?"

Yan Linglong nodded in satisfaction.

Don't underestimate this point, the trade between the two countries, the amount of a small point is also very large, and it is still a pure profit.

After securing the agreed alliance treaty, Xiao Rui rushed into the palace.

It was the time of rest today, Emperor Xia was feeding the golden dragon koi in the imperial garden, when he heard that Xiao Rui was coming, he set up the gazebo.

Xiao Rui entered the gazebo, cupped his hands and bowed: "Your minister greets the emperor, and I have something to report! The meeting with the envoys of the Dayan Kingdom to form an alliance has basically been completed, and the minister has drafted the alliance treaty, please review it by the emperor."

Emperor Xia waved his hand and asked him to sit down, while Hai Dafu beside him also accepted the alliance treaty.

"Yo, Eunuch Hai, what is this?" Seeing Hai Dafu's injured head, Xiao Rui spoke quickly, and actually asked the question. He only realized after asking, with an embarrassed expression on his face, wishing to slap himself on the mouth.

Hai Dafu's hands froze, and his face was full of resentment, but he didn't dare to say more.

The corner of Emperor Xia's mouth slightly raised an arc, and then asked: "Healed?"

Xiao Rui was grateful and said: "It's my son's fate, otherwise I will never see my father again. This is God's gift to my son, it's my father..."

"When did you learn to dive?" Emperor Xia suddenly asked.

"Ahem..." Xiao Rui was just about to praise Emperor Xia, but was stopped by Emperor Xia's words and doubted his life.

Is there such a father? Give me some face.

Xiao Rui looked depressed: "I said it happened suddenly, do you believe me, Father?"

"Believe!" Xia Huang said, Xiao Rui was about to be happy, thinking that father is quite reasonable, who would have thought that Xia Huang said again: "You say you can fly, and I believe it."

Xiao Rui could only honestly say: "After opening the mansion, I took the time to learn it. As a prince, I have so many skills that I don't overwhelm myself."

Emperor Xia agreed this time: "That's right. As a prince, you should be skilled. You should know everything, but you don't have to understand everything very well. You don't have to do it yourself. You all know everything. It’s a good job to learn more things.”

Speaking of this, Emperor Xia seemed to have thought of something, and asked, "Has your martial arts broken through the second-rank realm?"

Xiao Rui said: "Yes, father, thanks to Senior Zhuge Yuanba, if he hadn't actively let me participate in the death battle of Iron Dragon Knights, I would still be struggling in the first rank."

Even now, Xiao Rui is still full of complaints, and almost died there, how could he not complain.

"Recently, I intend to restore Zhuge Yuanba's position as the commander of the Iron Dragon Rider, but I am still hesitating." Unexpectedly, Emperor Xia suddenly mentioned this matter.

Xiao Rui didn't quite understand what Emperor Xia meant, so he didn't dare to speak out.

Emperor Xia said again: "Do you know why Zhuge Yuanba was suspended by me?"

Xiao Rui shook his head.

"You, you also need to learn more about major events in the capital." Emperor Xia reminded, and then he took the alliance treaty from Hai Dafu and began to review it.

After Xiao Rui decided to go out of the palace, he immediately went to investigate. Xia Huang pointed at himself, there must be a deep meaning.

After browsing the contract, Emperor Xia put it down and said, "You did a good job. You bought the ore at a price that was 12% lower than the market price in the Great Yan Kingdom. Success! If it is a high-quality ore, based on 40% of the refining calculation, it will cost four to five million catties. The amount is very objective. A few days ago, the Ministry of Industry reported that the amount of iron in the internal warehouse is 2,743 More than 10,000 catties, this is the result of several years of mining by the whole country. Now the minerals in Daxia are scarce, and the amount of mining is decreasing. Now adding the ore of Dayan Kingdom can solve the future troubles."

Xiao Rui said with a smile: "Father, since we have formed a brotherly alliance with Dayan, I feel that we can build a large-scale refining workshop in the military town near Dayan, and directly refine the ore and transport it back to Beijing, avoiding the long journey .”

Emperor Xia said: "That's right, the matter will be transferred to the Ministry of Industry, and let them handle it according to this idea. However, I saw that Princess Linglong of Dayan proposed a condition to kill Cao Lu, but I didn't expect that Princess Linglong would Still a person who has revenge, don't you think?"

Xiao Rui glanced at Emperor Xia, saw his expression that seemed to be a smile but not a smile, and quickly got up to plead guilty: "Reporting to Your Majesty, it was the joint idea of ​​Erchen and Princess Linglong. Father approves."

Emperor Xia smiled and said, "Since you want to kill him, it's fine."

"Thank you, father." Xiao Rui was overjoyed.

Unexpectedly, Emperor Xia said again: "However, since you want to kill him, then you can do it yourself. Hai Dafu, please inform Dongchang."

"Yes!" Hai Dafu replied.

Xiao Rui was a little dumbfounded, let him do it? What do you mean? He couldn't figure out Emperor Xia's intentions, but for the sake of descending value, kill as soon as you kill!

"My son obeys the order." Xiao Rui could only accept the order.

Emperor Xia pushed the treaty on the pushing stone table with his fingers, and said: "The treaty can be sent to the cabinet, and then we will formally form a brotherly alliance with the Great Yan Kingdom. From then on, we will not invade each other, and we will do business. If one party is in trouble, we will give our full support!"

Xiao Rui got up and said: "This is what I'm doing, I'm leaving."

Emperor Xia nodded, and Xiao Rui quickly retreated.

After leaving the palace and returning to the other courtyard, Xiao Rui informed everyone of Emperor Xia's order, and everyone breathed a sigh of relief, especially the envoys of Dayan Kingdom, who were even more joyful.

Once the alliance with Da Xia was formed, the territorial crisis in the north of Dayan would be completely resolved, because Da Zhao would not dare to invade Dayan because it was afraid that Da Xia would attack him. Therefore, the Great Yan Kingdom only needs to gather its forces in the south to deal with the Great Wei Kingdom! Although the Great Yan Kingdom was poor and weak, it had assembled heavy troops on the southern border, and the Great Wei Kingdom did not dare to invade on a large scale unless forced or unbearable.

Afterwards, Xiao Rui ordered people to draft a formal alliance treaty, submit it to the cabinet, and began to go through court procedures. Naturally, the cabinet did not dare to neglect the alliance treaty agreed by His Majesty, and passed it quickly.

Tomorrow, Xiao Rui, on behalf of Da Xia Kingdom, and Yan Linglong exchanged credentials with the Great Seal of the State, and the alliance was officially finalized. And Xiao Rui went to Dongchang that night for the sake of having a long night and dreaming more.

Eunuch Wei, the manager of the East Factory, came out to greet him in person.

"His Royal Highness, Master Zhang Yinhai told the villain to cooperate with His Highness well. Cao Luren is in death row, what weapons does His Highness want the villain to prepare?" Wei Gonggong said.

Xiao Rui couldn't help but want to complain, he didn't come to abuse people, what kind of weapon do he want!

"Do you have a mace?" Xiao Rui asked.

Eunuch Wei admired: "Your Highness is indeed brilliant, and the villain admires it. There is naturally a mace in the East Factory, and the villain quickly ordered someone to get it. Please rest assured, Your Highness, every spike on the mace is finely polished. Sharp and sharp, waving on the human body, guarantees sour and wailing."

Xiao Rui nodded and asked, "Take me to the death row. Oh, by the way, did you get anything out of this king of assassination?"

"I didn't ask, Eunuch Hai didn't let me ask, so he locked it up directly." Eunuch Wei said regretfully.

Xiao Rui paused, and suddenly understood Emperor Xia's intentions.

It seems that Emperor Xia knew that Xiao Rui knew that Xiao Yuan was colluding with Cao Lu, so he didn't let the people from Dongchang interrogate him. The East Factory has clear responsibilities and is responsible to Hai Dafu. Although Eunuch Wei is in charge, he probably doesn't know that the fifth prince is colluding with Cao Lu, so he didn't let the people in the East Factory interrogate him.

The prince colluded with the assassin, the royal family's face still cannot be lost, let Xiao Rui do it, it can be regarded as killing the enemy, so don't kill your own brother.

In addition, Xiao Rui asked Cao Lu who sent him here from the Great Zhao Kingdom, and that was the enemy he wanted to kill.

However, Emperor Xia only pointed at Xiao Rui, and didn't say it clearly, so it depends on him if he can understand, and whether he listens or not.

"Respected father, the fifth one is too much, I have bypassed him several times." Although Xiao Rui understood Emperor Xia's intentions, he decided to pretend not to know this time.

"Eunuch Wei, please lead the way." Xiao Rui smiled.

Eunuch Wei personally led Xiao Rui into the death row and met Cao Lu.

Cao Lu was a man in his forties, with an unattractive appearance. He was chained at this time, making him look even more destitute. He could not be seen as the King of Assassination at all.

"Do you know who I am?" Xiao Rui asked.

Cao Lu nodded and said with a smile, "You are Xiao Rui, the Seventh Prince of Xia Kingdom."

"Then you should also guess the purpose of this king's coming here." Xiao Rui asked.

Cao Lu continued: "Your Highness is here to ask some questions."

Xiao Rui shook his head and said: "You guessed wrong, you thought I would ask the people behind your scenes? You are wrong."

After finishing speaking, Xiao Rui suddenly pulled out the dagger at his waist, and directly cut Cao Lu's neck in horror.

Googooo...

In an instant, blood spurted out.

Cao Lu's eyes widened, his locked body trembled continuously, and a lot of blood gushed out. His eyes were horrified, followed by fear, as if he couldn't understand why Xiao Rui didn't ask himself, who is the murderer behind the scenes?

After a while, Cao Lu died.

Xiao Rui threw away the dagger, took out a towel and wiped his hands.

Eunuch Wei beside him had a smile on his face and showed even more compliments.

"Let's go." Xiao Rui smiled.

Eunuch Wei escorted him out of the death row, just in time to meet the servant who brought the mace. Eunuch Wei's petulant temper is so angry, he kicked and kicked when he went up, cursing: "You thing, you are so slow, the day lily is cold."

Xiao Rui smiled and took Wei Guang out of Dongchang.

In half an hour, what happened in the death row reached Emperor Xia's ears.
