Back then, Northern Yan, Southern Chu, and Tian Yuan were the three kingdoms united to fight against the Great Desert Kingdom.

It's just that with the passage of time, for various reasons, there is a rift between the three kingdoms, and although the desert country dominates one side, it is also getting worse.

Now back to the beginning, their parents, and even their grandparents, in the face of Loulan's sudden rise, with a strong return of blood and violence, will they (they) make the same decision?

At this time, a gradual footstep sounded.

I saw a maid whispering a few words beside Long Yanran, and then stood straight to the side.

"Let him come." After pondering for a while, Long Yanran spoke.

When the maid heard the order, she quickly turned around and left, leaving only Nangong Zhi and Shangguan Jing looking at each other, puzzled in their hearts.

This time, the two of them came to Tianyuan in order to discuss the plan to restrain Loulan, the less people know, the better, and now is the most critical time, who can have such treatment, and can come over.

While Nangong Zhi and Shangguan Jing were slightly unhappy in their hearts, they couldn't help but be curious, and they were all looking forward to it, waiting for the real person to appear.

After a while, a sonorous footsteps came from far and near.

Shangguan Jing's eyes were half-narrowed, looking at the blurred outline and raising his eyebrows slightly, he couldn't help but smile when he got closer, with an expression like this.

"King Beiyan knows this person?" Nangong Zhi was keenly aware of something, and looked at the person who was slowly pacing with a suspicious look.

"Hehe..."Shangguan Jing just chuckled vigorously, but didn't say a word.

"See the empress." The next moment, the man arrived.

"Get up."

"I've seen the King of Northern Yan and the King of Southern Chu."

Li Xiuwen saluted respectfully on one side, and smiled on the other side, with a spring expression on his face.

"This is..."Nangong Zhi looked at Long Yanran, and as he spoke, he stopped talking.

"Aha, this is the youngest and most outstanding scholar of Wenkaku University in my dynasty, Li Xiuwen."

In this situation, Long Yanran naturally would not hesitate her words of praise, but it was Tian Yuan's face that rose.

"What, you are Li Xiuwen?" Nangong Zhi had obviously heard this name, and his expression became colorful.

"The King of Southern Chu has heard of it?" Shangguan Jing quickly grasped this key point.

"There is an old minister in Southern Chu who has mentioned this name to me more than once, saying that there is a person in Tianyuan, whose name is Li Xiuwen, who has already learned five cars at a young age, is knowledgeable, and has the talent to go through the heavens and the earth."

The old minister Nangong Zhi said was naturally Li Maofeng who followed him, and it was also interesting to say, Li Xiuwen of Tianyuan, Li Maofeng of Southern Chu, and Li Yu of Northern Yan, these three important ministers of the dynasty were all civil officials surnamed Li.

In the face of Nangong Zhi's words, Li Xiuwen smiled indifferently, while Long Yanran had a meaningful expression, only Shangguan Jing frowned imperceptibly on the side.

It doesn't matter if a person is strong or not, but there is a person who is very strong, and he is not your enemy at the moment, but now you are standing on the opposite side, and in the long run, you will definitely be friends and enemies, and you will naturally have to hand over when the time comes.

In other words, for those who cannot be friends, the best way to deal with them is to strangle them in the cradle.

Not to mention Shangguan Jing, even Nangong Zhi quickly realized this, whether it is a troubled era or a peaceful and prosperous era, civil officials will always be more popular than military generals.

If the military general is a sharp sword, then there is no doubt that the civil official is a brush, although he cannot go into battle to kill the enemy, but the battle of verbal criticism and writing is not weaker than the sword and sword shadow of the forest and terrifying.

"Xiuwen, you came at the right time, this King of Northern Yan and King of Southern Chu came to my Tianyuan on this trip, for the Triple Alliance to jointly resist Na Loulan, tell me, what do you think?"

After a few words of conversation, everyone also got to know Li Xiuwen, and Long Yanran naturally threw out the topic.

Shangguan Jing and Nangong Zhi didn't feel inappropriate, but they also had some doubts in their hearts, and their eyes were full of scrutiny when they looked at Li Xiuwen.

"This, this..."I saw Li Xiuwen holding his chin in one hand, pacing back and forth, "I think it's inappropriate." After a while, he spoke his opinion.

"What, what?"

"This..."

Hearing this, Shangguan Jing and Nangong Zhi were both shocked, although the current Tian Yuan was not enough to threaten the status of the two of them, but its vigorous development and occupied a good situation could never be ignored.

Hearing this kind of answer now, combined with Long Yanran's previous attitude, it is impossible to figure out what Li Xiuwen said is what she meant.

If this really allows the two countries to resist Loulan, it won't be death.

If Tian Yuan should accept this, they can breathe a sigh of relief.

Because once the situation is not right, you can use the terrain of Dongling and the west to gather the soldiers of the two places to form an encirclement situation, and when the time comes, Loulan will definitely not be pleased.

To put it bluntly, what they valued was not Tian Yuan's strength in the capital at all, but the geographical advantages of Tanglin and the West.

When the time comes, they will resist the Loulan army in front, and take out knives from behind to break each one, this is their countermeasure.

"Empress, we are here sincerely, what do you mean by this?" Nangong Zhi spoke unkindly, and he and Shangguan Jing left the capital to discuss.

Before leaving, he also sent someone to thoroughly investigate Loulan's traces, afraid that they would suddenly attack.

But now that they are in danger of their country being attacked, they sincerely come to Tian Yuan to discuss, and as a result, they are treated like this, how can they not be angry.

"Xiuwen, as the so-called lips and teeth are cold, not to mention that we and Beiyan and Nanchu are neighbors, the more we are at this critical juncture, the more we must unite as one."

Compared with Li Xiuwen's straightforwardness, Long Yanran is much more tactful, but the other two are not fools, and they know that they are singing a double reed when they see this tune.

"What the Empress said is very true." Shangguan Jing knew that the other party couldn't completely make up his mind, so he hurriedly went down the slope.

"King Beiyan's words are wrong." It's just that since Li Xiuwen said that, how could there be no follow-up, "Thinking that in the past, Beiyan and Nanchu joined forces to trap our Tianyuan, and now they are like this, isn't it a slap in the face?" ”

"Presumptuous." Shangguan Jing can endure it, it doesn't mean that Nangong Zhi's violent temper can also swallow this breath, "Li Xiuwen, don't think that you can despise the world because you are young and have a little talent, now the Loulan family is dominant, and only when our three kingdoms unite can we contend with it." ”

"King of Southern Chu, this time our Tianyuan is the farthest away from the desert land, as the saying goes, when the sky falls, there is a high top, and we just need to develop it now."

"As for these two." Saying that, Li Xiuwen paused, "Southern Chu and Northern Yan dare to attack the Great Desert Country, then it must be Loulan's henchmen, if they have a move, this first target is naturally the capital of the two, our Tianyuan does not have the ambition and ambition of the two monarchs, if there is really such a day, in order to survive, we can also consider becoming its vassal state." ”
