"Yo Yo..." Shen Yueshan suddenly called her seriously, wanting to say something, but swallowed it back, "Dad will be back soon."

Shen Xihe looked at Shen Yueshan who suddenly rode away on his horse. His hesitation to speak must be related to Xiao Huayong, but he didn't say it out loud, which made her frown slightly, but she didn't delve into it.

Shen Yueshan saw that his daughter valued her son-in-law more and more. Even though he knew that his daughter was strong-willed and would be able to hold on if she really encountered the worst outcome, Shen Yueshan still didn't want his daughter to experience such human grief.

Worried about the future, but unable to persuade his daughter to be less careful with her son-in-law, not to mention whether Xiao Huayong would be good in the future, he couldn't hope that Xiao Huayong would be bad. Even if he was bad, he couldn't be prudent in matters of men and women. Thinking of Xiao Huayong's sincere plan for the northwest, Shen Yueshan couldn't bring himself to do so.

Shen Yueshan personally took action and quietly looted the treasures that Xiao Changtai had given to the Turkic king in two days. The Turkic king had carefully divided and hidden them in several places, but the potion was too poisonous to the rats that drank it, and Shen Yueshan did not miss any of them.

After robbing them of their money, Shen Yueshan drove the boxes of money in front of them and opened them clearly for them to see clearly. The Turkic king fainted from anger on the spot. Some Turkic leaders, led by King Nan, knew that they could not get any more benefits, so they had evil intentions. They wanted to take the life of the Turkic king while he was sick. They all used the excuse that the Turkic king had offended the Celestial Empire and he had already sacrificed himself to atone for his sins in order to gain the greatest benefits for them.

Wang Du died as a confession for this. If Shen Yueshan and his son continue to be aggressive, they can use this to incite all the Turkic men. At worst, they will have to fight again. Shen Yueshan and his son may not gain much benefit.

Shen Yueshan knew exactly what they were planning, so he led his men to sneak into the king's tent that night, and rescued the Turkic king from the chaos of swords at the right moment. He also killed a powerful Turkic general, King Nan.

After killing the Turkic King Nan, the Turks had no choice but to bear the grudge because they were saving the Turkic king and the King Nan was a traitor.

Although the Turkic king escaped death, he was still very angry about the death of King Nan, which overshadowed King Nan's murderous intentions towards him, because he knew very well that if King Nan died, the Turkic generals with military leadership would quickly wither away, and it would be impossible for them to challenge the Celestial Empire in a short time.

Out of desperation, he could only bow his head and accept Shen Yun'an's proposal.

"Khan, my previous proposal to give us 3,000 war horses every year was in exchange for surrender. Now my father and I have saved your lives, so you can't count it that way. You need to pay tribute to us with 5,000 war horses from the northwest every year for a limit of ten years." Shen Yun'an put on a sly smile and raised the price.

The Turkic king was so angry that he rolled his eyes, but Shen Yun'an swung his sword across the necks of the two remaining princes of the Turkic king. With this slash, he was the only one left in the Turkic court!

"Okay!" The Turkic king squeezed out this word from between his teeth using almost all his strength.

After that, there were other things to argue about, but Shen Yun'an didn't care much about these things. What he wanted were war horses, and strong war horses were the foundation for a strong army.

The next day, the two parties signed the contract outside Tingzhou City. The contract was made in triplicate, one copy for the Turks and one for the Northwest Palace. The remaining copy was of course sent to Kyoto at full speed to make His Majesty jealous.
