Chapter 863: 863 Triumphant Return

He spoke up, “I understand everyone’s suggestion. After returning to the Great Ming, we will consider it carefully.”

“Now, let’s discuss how much the Northern Continent should pay tribute each year.”

“Like the various prefectures of Great Ming, how about taking io%?” Old General Zhou suggested.

“At least 8%.” Zhou Huaiming nodded.

“10% isn’t high, but it’s not low either. If it’s any higher, they’ll definitely resist.” The heir of King An nodded in agreement.

“This 10% doesn’t have to be limited to silver. For example, the fur that our Great Ming lacks, unique medicinal herbs, and various mineral resources could be considered.” Gu Chengrui added.

“Alright, since everyone has agreed, we’ll negotiate with the King of the Northern Continent tomorrow.”

Over the next two days, both parties signed the subsidiary agreement with a tax of 10%. At the same time, the Emperor also agreed to exchange corn seeds, sweet potato seeds, and chili peppers for them.

At the same time, the Emperor also obtained some unique potato seeds.

After that, the Emperor and his entourage stayed for about ten days, waiting for the new King of the Northern Continent to stabilize his reign.

The Emperor and his entourage quickly returned to Great Ming after that.

At the same time, the trade between the two sides was wholly opened. A local deputy general was left to guard the city, while the Emperor quickly returned to the capital with Old General Zhou, Zhou Huaiyu, and the others.

At the same time, a pigeon sent a letter to the Southwest, saying they could start a war now.

After a while, the heirs of King An and King Xian led 50,000 troops, as well as the rations, herbs, and military doctors that Gu Chengrui had trained, to the southwest.

At the same time, the Great General of the Western Continent received a reply from their King, requesting that they continue fighting.

As for their plan to capture King Ning, they had almost succeeded.

Fortunately, the poisoning of Old General Zhou had aroused the high vigilance of King Ning and the others, so they discovered and caught the spies lurking in their military camp in time.

After King Ning learned of their plan, he was filled with anger.

Therefore, they stocked up on grain, medicinal herbs, or people. The two sides instantly started fighting when the Western Continent’s army appeared.

When the son of King An and the others arrived, King Ning and the others had already opened the gates to the border of the Western Continent.

After the two sides met up, everyone attacked the capital of the Western Continent.

At the end of the year, on the twenty-eighth day, they captured the King of the Western Continent alive.

With the Emperor’s decree, the heirs of King Xian and King An quickly supported a prince who was not on good terms with the King of the Western Continent to ascend the throne.

The group returned to the border, with King Ning and the others returning to the capital with the same agreement as the Northern Continent.

On the other end, when the Emperor and the others returned to the capital, it was already close to the twelfth lunar month.

Meanwhile, Zhou Ying began to prepare her New Year’s gift for everyone.

On one day, Zhou Ying went to deliver the New Year’s gift to King An’s Imperial Residence. She had just returned and sat down when Niu Fugui came to report. “Mistress, the Emperor and the others have already arrived at the Ten Mile Pavilion. They are about to enter the capital.”

“So fast? Quickly, get someone to prepare a brazier to welcome Chengrui.” Zhou Ying stood up and urged.

“Yes, I’ll make the arrangements now.” Niu Fugui nodded.

After he left, Zhou Ying got someone to prepare a bath and even took out a set of new clothes for Gu Chengrui.

At the same time, the soldiers cleared the streets, and everyone received the news. Therefore, the streets on both sides were quickly filled with excited people.

Following that, the officials quickly arrived at the city gate under the lead of King Xian.

As soon as the Emperor and the others approached, the soldiers at the city gates immediately knelt and shouted, “Long live our Emperor! Long live! Long live!”

Immediately after, the officials knelt and said, “Welcome back, Your Majesty Long live our Emperor! Long live! Long live!”
