Li Si frowned.
His mind was spinning rapidly, calculating the gains and losses.
As the prime minister.
Li Si's top priority was to ensure that the empire's interests were not harmed.
100,000 Great Qin cavalry.
This was not a small sum.
Even though Great Qin was powerful, it only had 400,000 Cavalry.
300,000 elite cavalry were stationed in Jiuyuan to prevent the Xiongnu from invading the south.
There were also 100,000 cavalrymen as reserves to prevent internal unrest in the empire.
Moreover, he had to be careful.
Great Qin's Cavalry were famous throughout the world, and they were all elites among elites.
Not to mention the many empires of the Central Plains, even compared to the empires of the grasslands and deserts, their combat strength was considered to be at the ceiling.
In the eyes of the various Dynasty Legatees, even Great Qin's Cavalrymen were treasures.
Wu Meiniang asked for 100,000 Great Qin Cavalry.
It was really a little too much.
"Your Majesty, I had no choice. If it wasn't for the fact that our Great Zhou was in danger, I wouldn't have made such a move.”
Wu Meiniang's expression was somewhat gloomy.
As a proud daughter of the heavens, if she wasn't forced into a corner, she really wouldn't be willing to ask for help.
The 100,000 Great Qin Cavalry could help the Great Zhou settle the internal strife in the shortest amount of time and reduce the casualties of the commoners.
Even though she was in exile, Wu Mei Niang still cared about her people.
Ying Zheng smiled faintly, stroking the silk letter of credence on the imperial table. Pondering for a moment, he said,""Even so, 100,000 Great Qin Cavalry is still too many.”
"Then how many troops can Your Majesty give?" Wu Meiniang asked.”
Ying Zheng's smile faded, and he extended five fingers, saying in a deep voice,""Fifty thousand at most."
Wu Meiniang paused and looked back at Di Renjie.
Di Renjie nodded slightly without batting an eyelid, but he was quite happy in his heart.
50,000 Great Qin Cavalry was a suitable number.
The so-called 100,000 cavalry was just for bargaining.
Wu Meiniang understood and straightened her posture. She said very seriously,"Thank you, Your Majesty. Our Great Zhou will definitely repay your kindness today!”
She was speaking the truth.
Unlike Li Shi Min's crafty personality, Wu Mei Niang was a person who would take revenge.
At this critical moment, Great Qin could provide soldiers and horses to help her restore her country.
Wu Meiniang would definitely remember such kindness.
If there was a chance in the future, she would definitely repay him tenfold or a hundredfold.
However, Ying Zheng laughed heartily, waved his hand and said loudly,""Empress, you and I are both rulers of a country. There's no need to keep making verbal promises.”
Wu Meiniang's cold and beautiful face was expressionless. She only nodded lightly and said,"Your Majesty is right."
"Zhen is willing to write a letter and seal it. No matter what condition His Majesty puts forward, I can agree to it.”
"If I go back on my word, Your Majesty can announce my letter to the world and then use the entire country's army to punish the Great Zhou.”
Wu Meiniang's attitude was extremely resolute.
As long as she could take back the Great Zhou, she would not hesitate to pay any price.
Perhaps, even Wu Meiniang herself did not notice it.
After hearing the story of Ying Chang 'an, her ambition and behavior had become more and more like Wu Zhao in the story.
He would resort to unscrupulous means to achieve his goal.
"Very good. Zhen admires your attitude.”
Ying Zheng nodded his head in appreciation and said softly,""We can agree to lend you 50,000 Great Qin Cavalry and provide you with rations and supplies. We can even leave behind 10,000 Cavalry to help you grow your wings after you ascend to the throne.”
Hearing this.
Di Renjie, who had always been calm, could not help but breathe harder.
This was really a gift from the heavens.
Not only did they provide Great Qin's Cavalry, but they also gave away their rations and supplies.
But none of this mattered.
The most important thing was that Ying Zheng had promised Wu Meiniang that he would give her ten thousand cavalrymen of Great Qin to guard the Great Zhou!
This matter was extremely important.
Think about it.
Even if Wu Meiniang used Great Qin's Cavalry to take back the throne, she was still alone and had no power to rely on.
Once Great Qin's cavalry retreated…
Wu Meiniang was likely to be surrounded again.
However, if Great Qin's 10,000 cavalry surrounded the capital of Great Zhou, it meant that Wu Meiniang had a terrifying force that could make everyone's expressions change.
It would be of great benefit to her in consolidating her position at the beginning of her ascension.
"Your Majesty, what are your conditions for helping me so wholeheartedly?”
Wu Meiniang's expression was cold and calm.
She was very clear.
Since Ying Zheng was so kind, the conditions he offered would definitely not be simple.
However, Wu Meiniang was still very curious.
She wanted to hear what kind of conditions Ying Zheng would offer.
Looking at the young girl in front of him, Ying Zheng smiled faintly and waved his sleeve at Li Si.
Li Si nodded and stood up. He walked to Di Renjie and said with a smile,""Minister Di, you haven't tasted Great Qin's specialties since you came from afar, right? Why don't I take you to try it?"
"This…"
Fatty Di frowned.
Li Si's actions were obviously to send him away, leaving Ying Zheng and Wu Meiniang to negotiate alone.
However, he was a little nervous.
What conditions did he have to negotiate behind his back?
Di Renjie was an old fox who had been an official for decades, so he could easily think of some bad things.
"Di Qing, go first. I know my limits.”
Looking at the hesitant Di Renjie, Wu Meiniang instructed.
Fatty Di nodded and smiled kindly. He stood up and said with a smile,""In that case, I'll be troubling you."
Immediately after.
The two Prime Ministers of the Empire left the study while chatting and laughing.
After the two of them left, the study fell into silence.
It was so quiet that it made people feel a little flustered and a little annoyed.
Wu Meiniang could not help but ask,"Your Majesty, there's no one else here. What conditions do you have? Just say it."”
At this moment.
Countless thoughts flashed through her mind.
She really could not guess what Ying Zheng was thinking.
As the one emperor in history, the goal of all emperors, Ying Zheng was definitely not a king who was greedy for beauty.
Even if Wu Meiniang really became a celestial being, Ying Zheng would probably not even spare her a second glance.
She was not into this at all.
Since it was not this condition, what else could it be?
Wu Meiniang felt a headache.
She really couldn't understand.
What kind of conditions could make the one emperor in history, Ying Zheng, so secretive?
What was he afraid of?
Seemingly sensing Wu Meiniang's thoughts, Ying Zheng revealed a meaningful smile.
"Empress, I think you must be very curious about why I have to talk to you alone.”
"This condition will affect Great Qin's stability for the next 20 or 30 years.”
"I have to be extremely careful."
Hiss!
Hearing this, Wu Meiniang's cold face that had not changed for ten thousand years finally changed.
Her eyes were filled with disbelief.
She was getting more and more curious.
Just what kind of conditions could affect Great Qin's future?
