Mixed martial arts: I am the best in the world

Chapter 205

Sima Guang was about to say something else, when he heard footsteps coming from outside, and then saw Cao Zhengchun walking in. He glanced at the two people in the tent and said with a sinister smile: "Master Sima, the king has invited you."

"Thank you, father-in-law." Sima Guang straightened his clothes and saluted.

He was about to follow Cao Zhengchun out when he saw Qiao Feng also wanting to follow him, obviously worried about his own safety.He sighed at Qiao Feng's loyalty in his heart and said quickly: "Qiao Feng, you wait here while I go to see Prince Ming. There will definitely be no problem in terms of safety."

"Sir." Qiao Feng was a little worried when he thought of Zhu Shou's treachery.

"You are Qiao Feng, the leader of the Beggar Clan! If you are worried, Master Qiao, you can come with Lord Sima to meet him. The king likes to meet masters of the world, especially heroes like Gang Leader Qiao. To be honest, Master Qiao is now serving the king. He is also the leader of the Beggar Clan, but he is the leader of your Southern Beggar Clan." Cao Zhengchun chuckled.

"Leader Huang Ronghuang?" Qiao Feng was stunned, but he didn't expect such a thing to happen here.

"Exactly. You two, please!" Cao Zhengchun nodded and led the two of them towards the big tent in the middle.

"Foreign Minister Sima Guang (Qiao Feng) pays homage to King Ming. King Ming will never see you for ten thousand years."

Outside the tent, the two of them bowed to Zhu Shou very solemnly. Even though he was not their own monarch, he was conferred by the Emperor of Zhou, and they respected him very much.

"You two, come in!" A gentle voice came from the big tent.

Qiao Feng looked stunned. This voice was very familiar to him, as if he had heard it somewhere.However, this thought was quickly put behind him, thinking about what he was about to face.

The light in the tent was very good, unlike Sima Guang. Qiao Feng lowered his head, his inner energy looming, feeling everything around him, for fear of an ambush inside the tent.

"Brother Qiao, could there be an ambush in Gu's tent?" The familiar voice came from just now, but it was like a thunderbolt, alarming Qiao Feng.

"It's you." Qiao Feng couldn't help but raise his head and looked at the young man in front of him, he was so familiar.

"Your Majesty knows Gang Leader Qiao?" Sima Guang was also surprised.

"Today I was playing outside and met Gang Leader Qiao. Gang Leader Qiao has a good drinking capacity! Of course, what I admire is not Gang Leader Qiao's drinking capacity, but his righteousness." Zhu Shou pointed to the cases on the side and said: "This is Dongyang wine from my Ming Dynasty. It is the best wine. I heard that Brother Qiao and Master Sima are together, so I have prepared it for you."

Qiao Feng was very moved after hearing this and drank the bowl of wine without hesitation.

"Good wine." After finishing the drink, he couldn't help shouting loudly: "Qiao has drunk countless wines, and this wine can be among the top three."

"Cao Qing, prepare some altars for Brother Qiao and take them back later." Zhu Shou looked very angry.

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Qiao Feng was overjoyed.

"The foreign minister heard that the king loves talents and respects heroes the most. When I saw him today, he lived up to his reputation. The foreign minister thanked the king on behalf of Qiao Feng." Sima Guang said quickly. "What can I do about the most respected hero? I couldn't kill the hero with my own hands. It's a pity for Wang Chongyang." Zhu Shou sighed and inadvertently turned the topic to Wang Chongyang.

Huang Rong, who was sitting on her knees, glanced over with her beautiful eyes, feeling very surprised in her heart.At such a young age, his depth of scheming is shocking.

"Yes! Foreign ministers were also shocked when they heard that Wang Chongyang died. But everyone is destined to die. Although Wang Chongyang was a hero, he rebelled against the emperor and rashly raised troops, which really deserved his death. The court of the Southern Song Dynasty was decayed and the people were in great hardship. ! The same ancestral temple with the surname Zhao, now, hey!" Sima Guang let out a long sigh.

"Lord Sima is preparing to raise troops to attack the Southern Song Dynasty!" Before Zhu Shou could speak, Huang Rong on the side suddenly sneered, directly revealing what Sima Guang was thinking.

Sima Guang glanced at Huang Rong, then chuckled and said, "What the princess said is true. I, the monarch of the Song Dynasty, have always considered the people of the Western Wilderness."

"You." Huang Rong's face turned red after hearing this, and there was anger in her almond-shaped eyes.

"Lord Sima, this is Gang Leader Huang Ronghuang, the leader of the Southern Beggar Clan." Zhu Shou coughed twice with an embarrassed look on his face.

"Oh! It turns out to be the leader of the Southern Beggar Clan! The foreign minister was presumptuous and thought it was Her Royal Highness the Princess!" Sima Guang quickly apologized.

Huang Rong suddenly didn't know what to say. Sima Guang was trying to counterattack him. Of course Princess Ming could ask about military and state affairs, but what qualifications did a Beggar Gang leader have to ask about state affairs?Look, Qiao Feng, who is also the leader of the Beggar Clan, seems very honest after entering the big tent.

"Master Sima, according to the imperial edict issued by the Emperor, your desire to unify the Western Wilderness is an internal matter of your Song Dynasty and has nothing to do with our Ming Dynasty. The Southern Song Dynasty will compensate our Ming Dynasty 4000 million taels of silver and lease Huanghe Island for 99 years, whatever you want. Our Ming caravans are so free throughout the Southern Song Dynasty. The Ming Dynasty has got what it wants and should not interfere in the affairs between the two Song Dynasties." Zhu Shou shook his head.

We are all smart people. When Sima Guang came to see him at this time, didn't he just want to unite with the Ming Dynasty and solve the Southern Song Dynasty?But there is no benefit to you, so how can I agree to it?

"What King Ming said is wrong! This time Wang Chongyang took the initiative to invade the Ming Dynasty, which was a violation of the emperor's edict. That is, King Ming was kind, so he would let it go easily, handle it lightly, let it go simply, but such a punishment After all, it's a bit lighter. If the punishment is not increased, Wen Tianxiang will raise troops to take revenge in the future." Sima Guang said quickly.

In fact, he was secretly horrified that the King Ming in front of him was so cruel that he demanded 4000 million taels in compensation, which was almost a quarter of the Southern Song Dynasty's treasury revenue. However, it was imagined that the Southern Song Dynasty would have a hard time in the future. However, isn’t this an opportunity for the Northern Song Dynasty?

"Lord Sima, this man must be honest, and the cause and effect between Gu and Wang Chongyang is over. The soldiers are physically and mentally exhausted. After this battle, they will return to the Ming Dynasty to rest." Zhu Shou said with a smile.

Sima Guang cursed secretly in his heart. He finally heard it. There was no cause and effect, and the soldiers were physically and mentally exhausted. They were all fake. The main thing was the benefits. The Ming Dynasty would not be able to send troops without benefits.

"Tianmaguan was originally the territory of Ming Dynasty, and King Ming should take it back." Sima Guang secretly clenched his fists and said.

Zhu Shou was stunned. Tianma Pass is equivalent to Shanhaiguan Pass in the Ming Dynasty. It is the gateway to the Song Dynasty. It occupies Tianma Pass. It can enter the Southern Song Dynasty to the west and Dali to the north. It is a land of military strategists. Can't it be given away like this?
However, Zhu Shou soon understood that Sima Guang was just being generous to others. If he wanted to seize Tianma Pass, he still had to do it himself. He had to contain the Southern Song Dynasty's troops. He was indeed an old fox.

"A Tianma Pass? Forget it, Lord Sima, from Yigu's point of view, whoever grabs the things belongs to whom, and there is no need to divide them so finely. In this way, Daming can help you bear more troops." Zhu Shou said with a smile.

Huang Rong glanced at Sima Guang disdainfully, wanting to plot against Prince Ming, she also had to measure her own ability.
