At the beginning, his wife came to him, and he became rich by selling kidney treasures.

Just three years.

No, it only takes one year. When the bananas and rice planted in the public land system have a good harvest, and when they have made their own powerful weapons, that will be the time for the rise of the Han Dynasty.

Just when Ren Hao was daydreaming, Rouyue rolled her eyes at him: "Do you think I'm a three-year-old child who can be coaxed? You said that the grassland is separated from your sect's Central Plains by the Wei Kingdom, how can you do business?"

"You want to use Wudun Chanyu to attack the State of Wei, right?" Rouyue reacted immediately.

His quick reaction left Ren Hao dumbfounded.

"Since you guessed it, I won't pretend anymore."

"That's true." Ren Hao nodded and admitted it frankly.

"I heard that the Wei people and your Han people are of the same origin. Aren't you ashamed of doing this?" Rouyue sneered.

"So what if we are of the same origin? The enemy of our enemy is our friend." Ren Hao said nonchalantly.

"If that's the case, then you may have miscalculated. I'm afraid that Wudun Chanyu will not be friends with you." Rouyue said.

"What do you mean?" Ren Hao was stunned.

"Don't you know that Wudun Chanyu has already concluded an alliance with the emperor of Northern Wei?" Rouyue continued.

"Are you serious?" Ren Hao asked doubtfully.

"Absolutely true." Rouyue nodded affirmatively, and said with some sarcasm that it was ridiculous that they were so close to the Northern Wei Dynasty, but they didn't even know about such a big thing.

After all, all the countries in the Western Regions knew about the alliance between Udon Chanyu and the Northern Wei Dynasty.

"God really doesn't help me." Ren Hao cried out inwardly.

At this moment, Qingzhu came running over in a panic and reported: "Someone has come from the palace, please go with Lord Shen to the palace to see the emperor."

"I understand." Ren Hao nodded. When he was about to go back to change into court clothes and enter the palace, Rouyue stopped him and said, "Lend me some money before you leave. I can't go back without any money."

"Your little money is nothing. I have arranged two trusted men to escort you back to your country. You can rest assured on your journey."

Ren Hao took Rouyue to meet Huilixue and Shi Huan. Anyway, he let the two of them secretly protect Su Ergou while also sending Rouyue back to the country.

After handing Rouyue over to Huilixue and Shi Huan, Ren Hao changed into court clothes and hurriedly entered the palace with Shen He.

When Ren Hao brought Shen He to Tianlu Pavilion where the emperor was, they saw Prime Minister Zhao Ping'an, Imperial Censor Chen Hui, Acting Grand Marshal Xu Qing, and Right Vice Minister Li Shiji were already sitting inside.

"I will pay my respects to Your Majesty."

Ren Hao and Shen He kowtowed at the same time.

"No need to be polite, just sit down." Wen Yan waved her hand.

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

Ren Hao and Shen He stood up at the same time and sat next to Li Shiji and Xu Qing.

Ren Hao wanted to know what His Majesty had summoned them to discuss this time, so he gently tugged at Li Shiji's sleeve, trying to find out.

After all, they arrived earlier than him and Shen He.

But Li Shiji shook his head and said he didn't know either.

cough cough.

Wen Yan coughed twice and then said, "My dear ministers, I called you here today because I have something important to discuss with you."

When Zhao Ping'an and Chen Yushi heard the big news, they immediately looked at Ren Hao.

Both of them felt that Ren Hao had drugged His Majesty with some kind of magic potion again and was planning to do something big.

After all, among all the people in the court, Ren Hao is the one who is most capable of making trouble.

Facing the gazes from the two, Ren Hao shrugged helplessly. This time it really wasn't him who was causing trouble.

"Just last night, the Wei State sent an army of 500,000 to raid the War God Pass. Although the War God Pass has not been lost yet, it has been heavily surrounded by the Wei army." Wen Yan sighed at the end. He had never expected that the Emperor of the Northern Wei Dynasty would send an additional 500,000 troops to attack the War God Pass.

After all, when Shen He analyzed the general situation of the world, didn’t he say that the Northern Wei only had the advantage of time but not the advantage of place? How was it that the Northern Wei could suddenly mobilize an army of 500,000 to attack?

Wen Yan shifted her gaze to Shen He.

This scared Shen He so much that he was sweating all over and his calves started to tremble.

As for Xu Qing who was standing next to him, he stood up anxiously when he heard that the God of War Pass was surrounded.

After all, his father Xu Tiande is still there.

"Your Majesty, please send 200,000 troops to reinforce the War God Pass. I will be able to drive the Wei army back outside the pass in one fell swoop." Xu Qing asked Wen Yan anxiously.

Wen Yan recognized Xu Qing's military talent, but the problem was where the 200,000 troops would come from?

If we could mobilize 200,000 troops now, we wouldn't have to gather everyone together for discussion.

"My dear Lord Wu, there is no one left in the country to recruit. Where can we gather 200,000 troops?" Wen Yan asked.

"If we can't gather an army of 200,000, then 100,000 will be enough," Xu Qing changed his words.

"We do have an army of 100,000, but they are all stationed in various border towns. If I call them all back, I'm afraid the princes will take the opportunity to revolt on their own." Wen Yan sighed. All she could muster now was the 50,000 troops directly under her command, which also included the imperial guards who protected the palace.

However, these 50,000 troops from the capital cannot be sent out unless absolutely necessary, as they still have to maintain order and security in the capital.

"My dear ministers, do you have any way to deal with the army of 200,000?" Wen Yan looked at the ministers, and finally set his eyes on Ren Hao.

"Your Majesty, why don't we ask for help from the King of Linnan? Didn't Peng Wen boast every day that Linnan had a million soldiers? And hasn't the King of Linnan always wanted to establish a country? Why don't we use this condition to exchange for their support." Zhao Ping'an immediately offered a bad idea to the emperor, and he had no choice but to throw the jar into the pot.

"The Prime Minister's plan is very good. It will not only help to lift the siege of the God of War Pass, but also consume as many of their soldiers as possible. This can be said to kill two birds with one stone." Censor Chen immediately praised and agreed with this plan.

"Although this plan is good, I'm afraid it will lead to a wolf entering the house." Shen He quickly objected.

"What about asking other princes for help?" Censor Chen asked.

"Aren't you clearly telling the other princes that the Han Dynasty is in danger of rebellion?" Li Shiji rolled his eyes at Chen Yushi, thinking that their ideas were worse than each other.

"This won't work, that won't work. Do you have any good ideas?" Zhao Ping'an snorted in dissatisfaction.

"Geckos can cut off their tails to protect themselves. Why don't we follow the gecko's example and cut off one of our tails and choose to make peace?" Shen He said after thinking for a while.

Right now the morale of the Wei army is high, and they are on the verge of conquering the world in one go. The best way now is not to fight against them, but to avoid their edge.

"Ask for peace?" Wen Yan frowned immediately.

Except for Ren Hao, everyone looked at Shen He with unfriendly eyes, as if to say, "Are you crazy?"
