The revival of the Han Dynasty must start with Dong Zhuo

Chapter 548 Volume The most powerful man in the Han Dynasty!

As long as we can win quickly, we can succeed even if we send troops by sea!
The court's campaign in Liaodong proved this point.

In terms of strength, Shi Xie was confident that the soldiers of Jiaozhou could crush Linyi, so a quick victory was not impossible.

Is that Kushan merchant really a qualified guide?
Shi Xie asked Shi Wu to bring Mrs. Li to him.

Mrs. Li has been feeling uneasy since she entered Longbian City.

After seeing Shi Xie, he bowed his head and kowtowed.

"Greetings to the respected Emperor of the Han Dynasty!"

"?"

Even Shi Xie's brows twitched three times when he heard this.

Is this something you can yell about?
Shi Xie immediately stopped him and said, "I am not the emperor of the Han Dynasty. I am just a governor who guards the wild land in the south for your majesty."

Mrs. Li tried hard to understand what he said, and then she looked at Shi Xie in surprise: "A man like you is not the emperor of the Han Dynasty?"

Shi Xie was nominally a county governor and provincial governor in Jiaozhou, but in reality he was a vassal prince.

Over the years, he has become intimidating without even getting angry, and people are intimidated by him.

Mrs. Li was also a famous wealthy businessman in Kushan and had met the current emperor of the Kushan Empire, Podia.

But even if it was Bo Diao, he didn't have the gentle, elegant, yet majestic aura of Shi Xie!

Mrs. Li said immediately: "Even if you are not the emperor of the Han Dynasty, you should be the most powerful person in the Han Dynasty, right?"

After hearing what Mrs. Li said, Shi Xie was helpless again.

Although Shi Xie was able to preserve Jiaozhou, he even took the opportunity to establish his own regime.

But family members understand their own business.

If Shi Xie went to the Central Plains, he would be a piece of cake!
When the princes were fighting each other, let alone people of the level of Yuan Shao, Yuan Shu, and Cao Cao.

Just the Marquis of Ji Gongsun Zan and Marquis of Wucheng Sun Jian back then were both heroes who could defeat Shi Xie with just one hand!

Even Sun Quan, who is now in power in Jiangdong, can easily defeat Shi Xie...

Now, Shi Xie is known as the most powerful man in the Han Dynasty... Shi Xie is really afraid that after this news spreads, he will be ridiculed by the famous scholars in the Central Plains.

"The heroes of the Han Dynasty are all in Chang'an, the Central Plains. People like me are just the lowest-ranking officials, so I am left in this wild place."

After learning this through the translator, Mrs. Li looked at Shi Xie in shock.

Even a figure like Shi Xie was just the lowest-ranking official in the Han Dynasty?

What would the legendary Emperor of the Han Dynasty look like?
Moreover, even in Jiaozhou, Longbian County where everyone is located, rich woman Li also thinks it is luxurious.

But is it possible that such a city is just the outskirts of the Han Dynasty?
Mrs. Li is no longer shocked, but suspicious.

He suspected that Shi Xie was lying to him.

In fact, Shi Xie was the person second only to the Emperor of the Han Dynasty.

Jiaozhou was also a prosperous place like Chang'an.

Otherwise, with Mrs. Li's somewhat poor imagination, she really couldn't imagine what kind of place Chang'an was.

"If you don't believe me, I can recommend you to the emperor and have you go to Chang'an to meet him."

"You are a businessman. If you can meet the emperor and please him, he might exempt you from the business tax, so you can continue to run your business without any worries."

Compared with Shi Wu, Shi Xie was obviously better at dealing with these merchants and knew how to lure them with benefits.

really!

When Mrs. Li heard that she might have the chance to meet the legendary Emperor of Han, she immediately became visibly happy.

"Great! Let's go now!"

Mrs. Li looked at her bag and said to Shi Xie, "I still have three days' worth of food on me. Is that enough for us to go to Chang'an and meet the emperor?"

Three days?

Shi Xie was also at a loss whether to laugh or cry. "The road from Jiaozhou to Chang'an is more than ten thousand miles. Not to mention three days, even three months may not be enough to arrive!"

"How can it be!"

Mrs. Li exclaimed again: "Isn't this even bigger than the Kushan Empire?"

"..."

When Shi Xie heard the other party comparing the Han Dynasty and the Kushan Empire, he didn't know what to say.

"Don't be anxious. I will send someone to escort you to Chang'an to meet the emperor. I just hope you can do me a small favor."

"Respected and kind-hearted commander, please feel free to tell me what you need my help with and I will definitely do it for you."

Shi Xie tried his best to adapt to the other party's strange tone and grammar, and then responded -

"The country you encountered on your way from Annan Protectorate to Jiaozhou was actually once a county of the Han Dynasty, called Xianglin County of Rinan County."

"It's just that the county official there, Qu Lian, rebelled and established his own country, calling it Linyi, so he is extremely unfriendly to you."

"Now we have received the emperor's order, asking me to go and conquer Linyi... The road is difficult to travel, I wonder if you can be my guide and go to Linyi from the sea?"

"!!!"

Mrs. Li’s heart was filled with turmoil!
It turns out that the country to the south is also the territory of the Han Dynasty!
No wonder they were not friendly to me after I mentioned the Han Dynasty before. It turned out that they were rebels of the Han Dynasty!
Mrs. Li was in a dilemma.

On the one hand, he was just a businessman and did not want to be involved in the military, especially the military of a giant like the Han Dynasty.

But on the other hand, Shi Xie’s proposal just now was too tempting!
He was actually willing to take him to meet the Emperor of the Han Dynasty!
As a businessman, Mrs. Li knows best the importance of seizing the initiative!
If the Emperor of the Han Dynasty is happy and gives me the friendship of the Han Dynasty, then it will be worth tens of thousands of kilograms of gold!
To meet the Emperor of Han!

To gain the friendship of the great man!
Rich Lady Li decided -

Fight!

"I'd like to be your guide!"

Seeing that the other party was so tactful, Shi Xie nodded slightly.

Mrs. Li then joined the ranks of the warriors.

When she saw the soldiers under Shi Wu's command, Mrs. Li couldn't help but shout out loudly -

"What elite soldiers! What sharp weapons! What sturdy armor!"

"Oh my god! This must be the most elite army of the Han Dynasty, right?"

"..."

If it was just ordinary praise, Shiwu might be happy.

But when Mrs. Li always adds a "big man" in front of the word, it is not a compliment, but more like a mockery...

"These are not the most elite soldiers of the Han Dynasty. They can even be said to be the worst soldiers of the Han Dynasty..."

"How can it be!"

Mrs. Li had an expression that said, "I'm very smart, don't lie to me."

At the same time, Mrs. Li was even more certain that Shi Xie must have been deceiving her before!
Shi Xie's status must be very high in the Han Dynasty! And Jiaozhou must be an extremely prosperous place in the Han Dynasty!
When Shi Xie ordered all the ships in Jiaozhou to be requisitioned and parked densely in Hepu Port, Mrs. Li was even more shocked and said, "Is the national strength of the Han Dynasty so strong? There are so many warships!"

"..."

Shi Wu no longer wanted to correct Mrs. Li, so he let her say whatever she wanted.

Anyway, as long as she is brought to the Central Plains, she will naturally know how wrong she is...

Just when Shi Xie was mobilizing Jiaozhou ships on a large scale, Zhu Huan, who had just arrived in the north of Nanhai County, also learned the news.

"Calling for ships?"

Zhu Huan touched his chin and suddenly let out a creepy chuckle.

"God help Jiangdong!"
