"What's the matter, Lin Guogong? Surprised to see me here? Bei Youran smiled indifferently, and seemed to have completely forgotten about the fact that she was hidden in the harem by the Empress Shuixiang before.

"Surprised? How could I be surprised! Lin Tian smiled and asked, "I don't know why you, the great military division of the Southern Yan Kingdom's Eastern Expedition, appeared here?" Aren't you supposed to be at war with the armies of God's kingdom? Or is it that your crusade failed, and you were afraid that Yan Huaiyu would kill you and ran to our Empress Shuixiang's arms to find safety? ”

"Although your speech is still so uncomfortable to listen to, you can guess seven, seven, eight, eight." Bei Youran's expression was a little gloomy, and he looked at Lin Tian with some resentment, "We did encounter a little difficulty in our Eastern Expedition, but we did not lose to the Divine Country, but we encountered with the vanguard army of the Divine Coming Country, and as a result, our Marshal Dudu was captured by the enemy's generals, I was worried that the dragons would make trouble without a leader, so I temporarily ordered the army to retreat a hundred miles, and then I went back to Liecheng to discuss countermeasures with His Majesty." ”

"And then? You discussed and discussed, and you came up with the idea of moving rescue troops to Xiangxiang Country? Lin Tian asked with a smile.

"Those who know me, Lin Guogong." Bei Youran nodded and said, "That's what our emperor meant, as long as you are willing to send troops to help, you can agree to any conditions." ”

"Is it really okay?" Lin Tian asked rhetorically.

"Yes."

"Oh, Your Majesty, you can earn it this time." Lin Tian immediately congratulated Empress Shuixiang and said, "Now that you can be with Brother Youran forever, if you let him be your queen, he won't have the slightest chance to refuse." ”

Lin Tian said it very clearly. If you want Xiangxiang to send troops, as long as Bei Youran agrees to marry the Empress Shuixiang. Of course, this is not what Lin Tian meant. It's the best result that the Empress of Water has always wanted.

Sure enough, as soon as Lin Tian's words fell, Empress Shuixiang's eyes lit up, but she chuckled slightly, and said: "If it was before, I might have made this request, but after what happened last time, I have also figured it out, and the marriage that is forced to come will not last long, and I will never force Youran to do something he is unwilling to do again." ”

"It's a pity." Lin Tian sighed. After a pause, he asked again: "Since the Nanyan Kingdom is now asking us to send troops, I don't know what His Majesty is planning?" ”

"I have sent you three here precisely for this purpose." The Empress of Water Fragrance said.

Wen Zhiruo snorted lightly and asked rhetorically, "I don't know what Your Majesty means?" Is it to send troops, or not to send troops? Lao Chen, it's good to make a judgment according to your meaning. ”

Generally speaking, the ministers below like to speculate on the empress's intentions, but it is still rare for Wen Zhiruo to ask directly, and Lin Tian can see it. Wen Zhiruo was very dissatisfied with Bei Youran's sudden appearance and request for Xiangxiangguo, otherwise she would not have said such a crime.

Empress Shuixiang was not angry, and a trace of tenderness flashed in her eyes, "Leisurely is the military of the Southern Yan Kingdom. He personally came to us to ask for help, which shows that Nanyan is really in trouble, and we are also neighbors, so we can't see death without help. ”

Wen Zhiruo's eyes instantly revealed a hint of coldness. Snorted coldly: "What about neighboring countries? They weren't cruel to us, and now we're helping him. Maybe after a while, they will bite us back. You don't want to have the kindness of a woman. ”

Bei Youran heard what Taishi Wen Zhiruo meant, it seemed that this old woman did not agree to send troops to assist them in attacking the Shenlai Kingdom in the Southern Yan Kingdom.

"I don't know how the Taishi is willing to send troops?" Bei leisurely looked at Wen Zhiruo and asked tentatively.

The corners of Wen Zhiruo's mouth squeezed out a trace of mockery, although it was very slight, but it was obvious, "Our Xiangxiang Country and Nanyan Country are incompatible, and there is absolutely no chance of mutual cooperation, but the interests of Xiangxiang Country are higher than one qiē, as long as you can offer suitable conditions that are favorable to our Xiangxiang Country, we may send troops." ”

Bei Youran smiled again, it seems that this deal is not to the point where it cannot be discussed, listening to Wen Zhiruo's tone, he had to give an appropriate price, and the matter of sending troops can be decided logically.

"Before I came, His Majesty explained to me that if Xiangxiang Country put forward conditions, what we can promise is that the two countries will stop fighting each other in the future and reconcile forever."

"Che, what's there to say about this verbal interest? It's all a lie. Wen Zhiruo smiled coldly.

If she believes this kind of nonsense about children, she will be stupid.

"Of course, more than that, in addition to the reconciliation between the two countries, our emperor also promised to give you 200,000 taels of gold in Xiangxiang Country as a reward, and he is also willing to cede another thirty cities to you." Bei leisurely continued.

Wen Zhiruo couldn't sit still, and immediately stood up and stared at Bei Youran with wide eyes, "What you said is true?" ”

"It's true, and it's never broken." Bei Youran nodded with considerable certainty.

Wen Zhiruo's eyes revealed a light of incomparably excited and excited, all these years, it was the Nanyan Kingdom that occupied the territory and cities of their Xiangxiang Kingdom, this time the Nanyan Kingdom actually took the initiative to offer the city, and it was still thirty cities, plus the thirty cities that Lin Tian captured last time, a total of sixty cities, this transaction is quite cost-effective.

"Your Majesty, since Nanyan has proposed such favorable conditions, we should consider sending troops." In the end, Wen Zhiruo changed her tough attitude just now.

Empress Shuixiang nodded slightly, but she didn't rush to make a decision, but turned her gaze to Lin Tian and Le Shitong, and asked, "Two Aiqing, what do you think of this matter?" ”

"Absolutely not." Le Shitong said in a cold voice.

"That's what I mean, too." Lin Tian smiled faintly, "There is no need to let hundreds of thousands of daughters of Xiangxiang Kingdom go to other countries to die for the sake of 200,000 taels of gold and 30 cities. ”

Lin Tian was clear that the Southern Yan Kingdom launched a war against the Shenlai Kingdom in order to unify the cultivation of the True Great. Lu, what if they helped the leader Nan Yanguo defeat the Shenlai Kingdom and get these things? With Yan Huaiyu's ambition, it is estimated that what they got will also be taken back by him.

In addition, after Yan Huaiyu defeated other countries, in order to achieve the grand goal of unification, how could he be reconciled with Xiangxiang Kingdom forever? There should be a lower limit to deceiving people.

It is estimated that only an old woman like Wen Zhiruo, who regards interests first, can be tricked! (To be continued......)
