From the perspective of the mentality of a weak country, it is "a strong country fights, we shrink", counting the days to eat, drink and have fun, as for the strong country becomes stronger, it is flattering if it can be, it is best not to be beaten, and if it is really beaten and the country is destroyed, it can only be blamed on bad luck, and the gas is exhausted. It's not that you don't want to resist, it's useless to resist, so why waste your strength.

This is probably the mentality of some outsiders who speculate about the Feng Netherworld.

But Long Xiguo is different, Long Xiguo is not weak, but there are two mountains that have been unable to get out, and Long Xiguo will not be willing to sit still.

Long Xi Guo is destined to be unprofitable in the war between Cangqiu Country and Chiyang Kingdom, but Long Xi Kingdom can silently expand its strength while everyone's attention is attracted by the big war.

"The Phoenix Underworld is too far behind the three kingdoms in many places, but the Phoenix Underworld also has attractive places, such as the largest gold mine on the continent in the desert, and the largest salt-producing area on the continent. I don't have anything but the Phoenix Kingdom, and I can't fight for the right to speak between countries, and I have to be controlled by the resources I hold, but it's different if I rule by another person. After the merger of the Fengming Kingdom into the Longxi Kingdom, although the Longxi Kingdom cannot be divided equally, it can also occupy a place, at least thirty percent of the certainty will win the final victory, not a big certainty, but it is better than sitting still. Chenguang said softly and glutinously, and his soft voice was extremely cold.

Chang Xi and Si Qian both fell silent.

"It's really good for Long Xiguo to do this, but Feng Mingguo is mine, why should I give up my own to fulfill him?"

Chang Xi smiled: "Your Highness is right. ”

"Although the Chiyang Kingdom and the Cangqiu Kingdom are tense in the Five Kingdoms, they really fight, and they still have to find a reason, right?" Si Qian said.

"It's not easy to find the beginning, not to mention that the Cangqiu Kingdom and the Chiyang Kingdom themselves are belligerent, and when they don't like each other, they already have seven or eight reasons in their hearts, and whoever is in a hurry to let them fight, who will naturally be very attentive. Besides, the chance of winning a war is only great if the other party is caught off guard in time, whether it is for the person who sets up the game or the person in the game. ”

"The Chiyang Kingdom and the Cangqiu Kingdom are equal in military strength, and if this battle really starts, I'm afraid it will take a long time to determine the winner." Chang Xi said.

"Not really, strength is only a part, ingenuity is also very important, as long as the calculation is good, it is not so difficult." Chenguang said with a smile.

"That Emperor Chiyang doesn't look like a calculating, a person with 'invincible in the world' written on his face, he will disdain to calculate, what kind of monarch there is, what kind of minister, Chiyang Kingdom will probably not win the world with ingenuity, and will fight for military strength. Cangqiu Country is difficult to say, Yan Ying's person ......" Chang Xi snorted coldly.

"Emperor Chiyang doesn't care to calculate, but someone will."

"Your Highness is talking about ......"

"If His Royal Highness King Rong is not good at calculation, how can he be famous in the eyes of outsiders, elegant and elegant, and loved by the people and courtiers? You see him yelling in front of me all day long, and you have forgotten who he was? Chenguang said with a smile.

Chang Xi frowned, he was really a little annoyed, because he was confused by the prejudice against Shen Run, which caused him to lose his judgment.

"Xiao Run Bacheng thought that I would secretly cross Chen Cang with Yan Ying, even if I didn't secretly cross Chen Cang with Yan Ying, I would be attached to Chiyang Country because of interests, he and Yan Ying had already made enemies, and it was impossible to choose Cangqiu Country, so he took the first step to be friends with Chiyang Kingdom, which could not only prevent me and Yan Ying from secretly crossing Chen Cang, but also eliminate the idea of going back to Chiyang Country as a backer. Chiyang Kingdom originally looked down on me, and with Long Xiguo's assistance, naturally he would no longer need me. When he was in the Five Kingdoms, Emperor Chiyang didn't want Feng Ying Kingdom to join forces with Chiyang Kingdom, but asked me to blow the pillow wind to Xiao Run and Xiao Yan, in his eyes, I was just a slut who had a leg with all men. Chenguang said with a grin.

Chang Xi glanced at her, making Shen Run think that she might secretly cross Chen Cang with Yan Ying, wasn't it because she was good for a while and bad for a while to create an illusion for Shen Run?

"Your Highness thinks that Emperor Longxi will calculate the Cangqiu Kingdom?"

"Xiao Yun hates Yan Ying very much." Chenguang said with a smile, paused, and said, "If I were Emperor Longxi, I would do it, unless Xiao Run wanted to sit still, he only had two ways, first, to help the Chiyang Kingdom destroy the Cangqiu Kingdom; Second, in the process of the Chiyang Kingdom destroying the Cangqiu Kingdom, he waited for an opportunity to take the Fengming Kingdom; Third, in the war between the Chiyang Kingdom and the Cangqiu Kingdom, pit the Chiyang Kingdom and let him take off a layer of skin.

This is the disadvantage of ranking third, one or two fight, four or five are doomed, only three, you can fight but you can't fight for one or two, you can't even be an independent combatant if you want to go to war, and if you anger the other two countries, you will definitely be swallowed by the two countries, so others can only be jackals for tigers. His life is pinched in the claws of the tiger, and he is in danger, but he is unwilling to perish, he can only use strategy to survive, and it is not easy for Xiaorun. Chenguang said with a smile.

"Maybe Emperor Long Xi is not as smart as His Royal Highness." Chang Xi said, disdainful of Shen Run's mind.

"I think sometimes he does a lot of the same thing as I do, that is, he thinks too much and contradicts himself, and he doesn't do it crisply, he doesn't make it decisive, but it's funny when he's immersed in his complex thoughts." Chenguang said with a grin.

"Your Highness, now is not the time to praise him." Si Qian said expressionlessly.

Chenguang glanced at him and flattened his lips: "I didn't praise him." ”

After a pause, she smiled and said, "Qingyi came just right this time. ”

She said the next thing to the two of them unhurriedly.

After hearing this, Chang Xi and Si Qian thought for a moment, and then responded softly:

"Yes."

Chenguang smiled.

……

Shen Qingyi arrived in Hanjing in late autumn and early winter, she was full of happiness, she thought that Chenguang would come to pick her up, but who knew that the people who came to pick her up were not Chenguang, but Si Ba and Si Shi.

The two of them looked sad and respectfully greeted Shen Qingyi.

Luo Song, as the reception officer, brought the group of people who were given gifts by Long Xiguo to the post house.

Shen Qingyi took Si Qi and Si Ba into his carriage and asked suspiciously:

"What about your Highness? I thought your Highness would come in person? Why did you two look like this, what's wrong? ”

As soon as she finished speaking, Si Shi had already covered his face with a handkerchief, shaking his shoulders and whimpering.

Si Ba frowned and glanced at her, and said angrily: "Good and dignified, what kind of mourning?!" ”

As soon as she said the word "howl", her voice choked up, and her eyes turned red.

Shen Qingyi saw that something was wrong, and sighed in her heart, and asked hurriedly, "What's the matter?" What the hell is wrong with you? ”

Si Ba sniffed and said softly in a choked tone: "It's nothing, it's just that His Royal Highness's health is not very good, and the princess should not worry too much, His Highness's health is not good for a day or two." ”
