"Then, shall we consider this a formal alliance, and the next biggest step toward a united empire, Duke Fei?" Obviously, he expected Fei Lak to be a man of great importance- one of the chief powers in the empire he wished to see brought about. "i think that with our united stance, the Empire will be whole by the end of this year. This messy rebellion, this weak emperor- all will be swept aside." He stroked his goatee a moment ,and looked to Fei Lak. "I understand you wish to end this era of chaos, but I do not know your ambitions, your motivations, your desires? Mine are well-known, for China to be whole again under proper leaders, like yourself and others I support, but what do you want, Marquis?"

"I am by my own admission a very ambitious man. I would like to believe that to be well founded and for the right reasons. Our goal since uniting has always been to be able to exert our influence over the land and spread that as much as possible. I am not foolish enough to believe I can accomplish this on my own, but if we can align ourselves with others of the same mindset, then we shall have peace. If my policies and ideals are matched and agreed upon, I will be able to finally rest. Today, I believe we are aligned and may be allied in a common goal. Once we have rid this land of our common enemy, we can perhaps establish a system that allows the unity to continue."

"Of course, out of respect to my ally Liu Jin, I will inform him of your request, but I see no problem there. It is good that they were able to unite and avoid the bloodshed."

Turning to an attendant, he adds.

"Get the Lieutenant General a few different sorts of tea including the one he just mentioned. We will have it in my personal gardens."

The duo, accompanied by Zhao Khan as always, made their way into the gardens. Xian Long Rui was there as well, it seemed the two newly sworn brothers were inseperable lately, Lak felt he was also sworn to the two protective men and maybe he should swear an oath with them.

"It seems this concludes my business in the west if Dai has joined Wei as one. You come join us at a rather difficult time as we surely will have war with Yin for a time. Tell me, do you have advice for me on that front Lieutenant General?"

The Marquis tone seemed more formal by using the rank, but he remained friendly and of good humor.

Bao Min thought for a bit that seemed an hour and then spoke,

" Well, If you want my input, I believe Changshan should merge with your empire, then you should storm into the Zhao Province with a small amount of men while the bulk of your military stays in Yan, which will go through the Jibei Province to the Zhao Province. From there, both forces can regroup and finish of the Yin Province. But to do so, you'd have to convince Tian Dan and Tian Loc to not attack you while all is happening. "

Bao Min smiled.

" If you can pull that off, Yin will be defeated. "

Lak nodded while in deep thought.

"I have much respect for Lord Xiong and his Chief Administrator who is my former mentor, I would rather seek cooperation with them. Tian Loc is honorable and should help if King Tian ever dares face us. Your thoughts are aligned with mine however, will you accept the rank of Lieutenant General with us and help us in our plans?"

" I would be more than honored to serve as a Lieutenant General under your command, my liege. "

Bao Min bowed deeply.

" But that is so long as you can keep up with my tea expenses! "

Bao Min then laughed lightly.

((Sorry guys, had a bit of a personall issue come up...))

Phailak and Mikal:

The older general bowed once more before the northern leaders...

Cen: My master is unsure of what may happen withteh recent aggresions with Liang. However he has taken diplomatic steps to prevent contiued attacks. However he bid me to ask if there is anything he could assist you with. The province of Huianan owes a debt to General Zhou, had it not been for his timely meeting with my lord, we would have not found a skilled general that helped to push back the attacking forces.

"Please return the sentiment, if there is anything..."

Lak stopped mid sentence and looked through some papers.

"Do not hesitate to ask, perhaps you would be in a position to help me with this?"

OOC: No problem, PM sent concerning what Lak shows on paper

"I am glad to have been able to help your lord. He is a just and virtous man, as is Master Han. I hope they are both able to come and visit soon."
