Xu Shanxin asked himself if he had the courage to continue to challenge and test Li Xinchen's bottom line, he didn't have the courage to dance on the tip of the knife, but at least not now.

In the final analysis, Xu Shanxin is just an envoy of the imperial court, he is not qualified to directly help the imperial court make a decision, and now Li Xinchen has thrown this issue over, of course, Xu Shanxin cannot agree directly, he must tell the imperial court about this matter as soon as possible, and finally let His Majesty make a decision.

To tell the truth, Xu Shanxin didn't think it was the right choice to let Li Xinchen go to Jiankang Mansion with soldiers and horses, but now that Li Xinchen has shown goodwill, if the Nanchen Imperial Court does not take this opportunity to seize it, but avoids it, I am afraid that there will be fewer such opportunities in the future, or even impossible again.

Xu Shanxin still knows this truth.

So such a crucial matter, Xu Shanxin himself couldn't judge it at all.

It's useless to say more, it's better to hurry up and play it to Your Majesty.

And Li Xinchen stretched out his hand to push open the window, looked at Xu Shanxin's back in a hurry, and couldn't help but smile: "Okay, you can come out." ”

Gu Yewang, Dai Cai and the others turned out from behind the screen, Li Xinchen nodded at them, and said in a deep voice: "The acting skills just now are still okay, right?" ”

Dai Cai said with a smile: "If it was a subordinate in Xu Shanxin's position, I am afraid that he would be even more surprised than Xu Shanxin just now, maybe he would be directly messed up for a while, this Xu Shanxin obviously also knew that the general was not easy to deal with, and he was determined to do so, so he simply did not plan to stay and continue to discuss with the general, and went back directly to write a note to the imperial court." ”

"Xu Shanxin is a smart person, and he knows that if something goes wrong here, he can't afford to deal with it at all," Li Xinchen said with a slight bow, "So just throw this problem out, at least in the end, he is just a messenger, and what the real situation will develop will be, it is not up to him Xu Shanxin to decide." ”

Gu Yewang also responded: "It's no wonder to him, this matter is very important, if it is done, it will be a great achievement, but if it fails, then it will be a catastrophe, Xu Shanxin is not a bold person, he will definitely not be so reckless." ”

And Li Xinchen sat down slowly, rubbing his chin gently: "How likely are you that Your Majesty and the imperial court will finally agree?" ”

"I'm afraid it's Sanqi Kai," Gu Yewang had obviously been thinking about this question before, and said decisively at this time, "It stands to reason that Your Majesty and the imperial court will not allow such a hidden danger, but now the attitude of Xu Ling, Wu Mingche and others in the court towards the general is ambiguous, and Your Majesty wants to take advantage of this last opportunity to win over the general, or want to take advantage of this to completely imprison the general, so it is not impossible to succeed." ”

Although the ratio of three to seven was very small, it was already expected by Li Xinchen, and he didn't expect Chen Ji to happily welcome him to Jiankang Mansion.

Li Xinchen said in a deep voice: "If the court agrees, then we will have the opportunity to contact the court directly, but if the court does not agree, then I am afraid it will be difficult to reach an agreement on dealing with the Zhou people together, so this matter not only has to let the court know that we also want to show goodwill, but also have to let them understand that we still maintain a certain bottom line, and this time in the battle of Bashu, no matter what, the soldiers still held up the banner of Da Chen, and made such a great contribution, and the court should also show it. That's our bottom line. ”

After a pause, Li Xinchen said helplessly: "What's more, as Gu Gong said, once Your Majesty moves a killing machine against a certain one, these soldiers and horses still have the opportunity to defend a certain battle, as long as there is a sailor, they will always run away if they can't be defeated." ”

Dai Cai exchanged glances with Gu Yewang and the others, in fact, they felt that Li Xinchen was a bit risky to do this, but they also knew that once Li Xinchen made up his mind, it would definitely be difficult to stop him, and more importantly, as Li Xinchen said, it seemed that there was nothing more able to turn Nanchen and Bashu into allies again than Li Xinchen returning to the capital.

"Let's discuss here today, Xu Shanxin's attitude is very respectful, indicating that at least he has received instructions from the imperial court and does not want to provoke us rashly," Li Xinchen said thoughtfully, "This is also a good thing for us, I hope he can bring us a better answer." ”

Of course, Dai Cai and the others knew that they couldn't make a decision so easily, at least now the other two important figures in Li Xinchen's group, Xiao Shilian and Pei Zilie, have not yet expressed their position, and everything is unknown.

Seeing Dai Cai and the others retiring, Li Xinchen sighed softly. It's not because he is reckless, Jiankang Mansion is tantamount to the tiger's den in Longtan, which Li Xinchen himself knows, but now in front of Li Xinchen is the golden opportunity of the upcoming civil war in the Northern Zhou Dynasty.

Before that, Li Xinchen had never thought about how to find a balance between Southern Chen and Northern Zhou, and in the end, the fisherman would benefit. The advantage of Bashu is that it is easy to defend and difficult to attack, and the disadvantages are also obvious, the land is vast and sparsely populated, the supply of grain and grass is insufficient, etc., all make it difficult for Bashu to become the foundation of the conquest of the world.

It's a pity that at least now Li Xinchen has not directly defeated Guanzhong's strength, and even the pressure from the north and east at the same time makes Li Xinchen have no way to attack Hanzhong under the threat of Southern Chen or Jingzhou under the threat of Northern Zhou.

Wei Xiaokuan and Xiao Maha are not easy people, and Li Xinchen asked himself if he had this confidence. And without the accumulation of several generations, Li Xinchen has no grasp of a two-front war, but once the time drags on for a long time, Bashu has no way to compare with the Central Plains and Jiangnan after all, and the gap in strength between the parties will only get bigger and bigger.

For example, Gongsun Shu in the late Eastern Han Dynasty is a typical example, he is dedicated to running Bashu and wants to use it as a springboard to conquer the world again, but in the end he can't get out of Bashu's door.

Li Xinchen has never had the luxury of expecting God to favor him again and again, so he has no way to guarantee that the next time he continues to fight against Wei Xiaokuan or any of the world's famous generals, even if he is at a disadvantage, he can still easily win.

Because Li Xinchen can clearly feel that when he is becoming stronger, his opponent is also learning from experience and lessons, and is preventing the same mistakes from continuing to happen. They weren't familiar with Li Xinchen before, so they would suffer again and again, and then Li Xinchen might not be so simple if he wanted to get a bargain from them.

With Li Xinchen's current capital, even in five or ten years, there is no way to bear the consequences of such a failure. It can be said that Li Xinchen was completely barefoot and not afraid to wear shoes when he attacked Bashu before, but if everything is risky and ignored now, then all these efforts are gambling, and once he loses, then everything will be in vain.
