Chapter 623: Xiyi Seeks Marriage
Xiao Yi simply found a stone and sat down, waiting for Wang Xizhi's reply.
Wang Xizhi waited for him to sit down, and after a long time, he slowly spoke: "You know the identity of the eldest princess. β
Xiao Yi nodded: "Yes, I know, the niece of Sima Chi, the contemporary monarch of the Jin Kingdom." β
Wang Xizhi continued with his head bowed: "Then do you know that the eldest princess left the palace this time other than to see you, what is the reason for this?"
Xiao Yi was stunned and shook his head: "She didn't tell me this, presumably because she was afraid that I would worry!"
Wang Xizhi shook his head and said, "Brother Xiao, you are too naΓ―ve! The eldest princess's departure can be said to have many factors, and you just happened to meet at the right time, which is not only related to herself, but also related to national affairs!"
Xiao Yi became more and more confused when he heard this, and hurriedly asked, "What's going on?"
Wang Xizhi paused for a moment and said: "I will tell you briefly now, the eldest princess is good at martial arts, and now she is the most favored pearl in the palm of the king's hand. And for the arrangement of the eldest princess, there are also endless debates in the court. β
"What's the meaning of this?" Xiao Yi became more and more confused, confused.
Wang Xizhi continued: "This matter is a long story, a year ago, Xiyi attacked Ancheng, one of the three major capitals of our country, and the defenders of Ancheng desperately resisted the enemy, firstly, because Zhao State contained most of our troops, so that the last major force of the Jin State was wiped out, and there were no more soldiers to fight; β
"Helplessly, although my Wang family has the manpower to fight, and even said that as long as there are 3,000 Royal Forest Army, the city can be safe, but it is repeatedly inaccurate, but it is helpless, because the Royal Forest Army guards the safety of the royal city, if the Royal Forest Army has another accident, the Jin State is only afraid that the day of destruction is not far away, resulting in the delay of the warplane, and Ancheng is finally lost after the mountains and rivers are exhausted and the ammunition and food are exhausted. β
"The soldiers of the three armies of Anseong swore to live and die with Anseong, fought to the last soldier, and all of them died, and the Anseong defenders also died for the country. Perhaps because Xiyi does not have a congenital master, he is afraid that when the war starts to live and die, I will behead the power of the congenital master, and after conquering Ancheng, he will not move, and he is even willing to pay tribute. β
"Everyone knows that this is Xiyi's delaying tactic, once some of them break through the innate and have the means to contain the innate masters of the royal family, I am afraid that they will lead troops to attack again, and even directly start the war of destroying the country. Although the king loves the people like a son, he has no choice but to have no soldiers to fight, so since then he has shown a timid and afraid of things, and he is most afraid of swords. β
"Not long ago, after learning about the beauty of the eldest princess, the envoy of Xiyi went back and reported to Helian Hu, the lord of Xiyi wolf, and wanted to hire the eldest princess as his daughter-in-law. The monarch knows very well that the current situation of our dynasty can be described as walking on thin ice, Xiyi is relatively more fierce, and the monarch himself does not want to make a big move to disturb the people's livelihood, so he has to agree after thinking about it. β
Xiao Yi couldn't help but "Ah!", Wang Xizhi continued:
"Actually, the king didn't want to do this, the king originally wanted to wait for the three major forces of the Central Plains to come to the Southern Wilderness to recruit disciples, and recommend the eldest princess as a seed player. β
"It's a pity that the king didn't wait for the three major forces in the Central Plains to select disciples, but waited for Xiyi's envoys, this is the main reason why the eldest princess left the palace, of course, the eldest princess can not leave the palace smoothly without the secret support of the king, and the court is also arguing because of this matter, and anyone with a discerning eye can see the pros and cons, but the threat of Xiyi is imminent, and it is urgent. β
"Although my Wang family admonishes the use of troops to win, but because of Uncle Wang Yan, there is no military power, but there is nothing to be done, and the king does not allow it, so our Wang family coincides with the eldest princess, cooperates with the eldest princess to enter the incense and repay, and when the eldest princess leaves the palace, arrange for her to leave the royal capital, so that she is in distress so far, you know the rest of the matter. β
"We didn't expect that someone would rob the eldest princess under the nose of our Wang family, which I never expected, and with the ability of the eldest princess, she is not an opponent, and those people we arranged are not opponents. After Wang Xizhi finished speaking, he sighed.
After Xiao Yi listened, his eyes widened, he thought for a while, and asked, "With your status as the third prince of the Wang family, you can't find the slightest clue, so what should we do now?"
Wang Xizhi said: "It's hard to say, since my uncle was brutally pushed and killed, the status of my Wang family in the Jin Kingdom can be described as declining, and it is not as good as day by day." can barely keep the current place, or the current king's generosity. Besides, now that the masters in the palace are asking around, once they learn of the current situation, they will inevitably inquire about the whereabouts of the eldest princess, so we can take advantage of it. β
"You must know that these masters of the Great Inner are under the orders of the king, in fact, according to my meaning, although Xiyi is strong, but if it is against our dynasty, it is still vulnerable, but the king is timid and cautious, and he does not dare to adopt the advice of loyal ministers!"
Xiao Yi said: "In this way, the disappearance of the eldest princess may really be caused by your war and the mutual tilt between the two factions. If that's the case, then it's okay, I'm afraid I don't know how many people from third-party forces like the Wudoumi Sect are? What are the goals of these forces?"
Xiao Yi continued: "Besides, if it's just Xiyi, an external trouble, as you said, if you lead troops to destroy him, you are afraid that there will be a third party in collusion with it, in that case, there will be many more variables out of thin air." β
Wang Xizhi glanced at Xiao Yi thoughtfully, and echoed: "Yes, directly exterminating Xiyi is the road that a good man should take, if Brother Xiao wants to go, I naturally have no objection, but it is not the time yet, because Xiyi is also waiting for the king's reply, and after this incident, according to the character of the king, I am only afraid that he is also hesitating......"
"You told me so much, you were waiting for me here!" Xiao Yi immediately reacted, Wang Xizhi said so much to him, I was afraid that he was also testing his thoughts, but I don't know why Wang Xizhi cares so much about his answer?
Although Xiao Yi has heard that Xiyi is reckless and has the intention to kill the enemy, he is eager to participate in the battle of conquest, but as far as the current situation is concerned, even if he is a person of the same race and has a strong national thought, even if this kind of thinking that cannot be seen on weekdays is surging because of foreign enemies, but he is not a citizen of the Jin Kingdom after all, which one is Wang Xizhi doing?
