Chapter 15: Temptation

Even if his life is threatened, Xu Xiao still can't easily agree.

He is the king of Beiliang, and he wants to consider the 300,000 soldiers of Beiliang and the hundreds of people in Beiliang.

The marriage seems to be insignificant, but it is very likely to affect the current pattern of the Liyang Dynasty.

Especially Li Chengqian, the newly crowned King of Shu, has such a strong personal strength.

Hidden so deeply, will he really be a little prince in Shu?

I'm afraid it's impossible.

Once they get married and step on each other's chariots, it is difficult to predict what the road ahead of Beiliang will be.

Li Chengqian didn't think that Xu Xiao would simply agree.

The reason why he wanted to marry Beiliang was because Beiliang was connected to Shuzhong.

It directly threatens the stability of Shuzhong.

After the marriage, he will have a lot less worries.

On the other hand, once the marriage is successful, it is a signal that Shuzhong and Beiliang have joined forces.

This signal will raise Tai'an City's tolerance for him, the king of Shu, to a very high level.

At least, it is impossible for Liyang to easily start the war without his will to respond, and raise a large army to attack Shudi.

Of course, this situation may not be able to sustain forever.

But he only needs a few years for Shu to develop.

There is no need to question Han Xin's ability to fight against the army, even if the population of Shu is not large, but Shu is connected to the Western Regions and Nanzhao, both of which are large and rich, and the population is not a few.

No matter how rebellious the people of the Western Regions and the Nanzhao people are, as long as they are in the hands of Han Xin, if they can't be submissive, I am afraid that they will underestimate the name of Han Xin's soldiers.

And today's Fan Li, after more than a few years of development of the world's decades of scientific and technological explosion, the means and methods of doing business can be said to be at least several times stronger than the Fan Li in people's impressions.

The speed at which wealth is accumulating is beyond the imagination of those in the world.

Zhuge Kongming is the same, in the Qing Yu Nian world, he also has decades of advanced governance experience, not to mention a Shu land, even if you add the Western Regions, Nanzhao, and even the whole world, it is difficult to make any trouble.

Coupled with Chen Pingping's pervasive Supervision Yuan, in a few years, what a huge force will be brewed in Shuzhong, I am afraid that no one can predict it.

And he only needs to use the name of Beiliang to gain the development time of the past few years.

Everything will change like never before.

And before that, it was obviously impossible for him to kill Xu Xiao seriously.

Once Xu Xiao dies, Bei Liang is bound to be in chaos, and Bei Mang will never sit idly by.

At that time, the world will be full of war.

This is not in the interests of Shuzhong today.

Therefore, after coercion, it is natural to follow the inducement.

Li Chengqian played with the teacup in his hand and said lightly, "King Beiliang should be very clear about Beiliang's situation now.

300,000 iron horsemen, what a majesty.

But can Bei Liang afford to support these 300,000 iron horsemen?

Once the imperial court cuts off military supplies, what should Beiliang do?

Rebellion?

But once there is a rebellion, if Bei Liang cannot quickly encroach on the entire Liyang in a short period of time, Bei Mang will inevitably slaughter the entire Central Plains.

But if you want to quickly encroach on the entire Liyang, with the 300,000 troops of Beiliang, you should also know that this is impossible.

And once Beiliang falls into the sandwich attack of Beimang and Liyang, then, whether it is the 300,000 iron horsemen of Beiliang or the hundreds of people in Beiliang, they will all die without a place to be buried!

Although Shuzhong can be a way out, but now I have been named the king of Shu, even if this king does not make a move, with the topography of Shuzhong, the army can not be deployed, and the numerical advantage is greatly reduced.

And once the war is stalemate, I don't need to say much about what will happen to Bei Liang."

Xu Xiao's face was slightly gloomy, but he couldn't refute it.

Now Zhang Julu is the prime minister, and he has not deducted Beiliang

The military quartermaster, in which the balance was turned, barely maintained in the current situation.

He Beiliang didn't dare to rebel easily, and Liyang didn't dare to force him Beiliang to rebel easily.

After all, once Bei Liang rises up, even if Bei Liang is doomed, Liyang will be greatly damaged.

At that time, in the face of the fierce Beimang, I am afraid that it will be difficult to resist.

Both sides have scruples and trade-offs, which is the main reason for today's stability.

But because of this, Xu Xiao will not easily marry other princes.

This means that he Bei Liang participated in the struggle for imperial power, intending to use the hands of the prince to get involved in the imperial throne.

It is very likely that Zhao Chun will have a stress reaction, which will then cause irreparable consequences.

As Li Chengqian said, once Liyang cut off the military needs of his 300,000 troops in Beiliang, the consequence would be unbearable for him in Beiliang.

When Li Chengqian saw Xu Xiao's expression, he generally knew what he was thinking.

He said lightly: "The marriage of Beiliang and Xishu, if there is really an unforeseen day, this king can open the gate of Xishu and let the Beiliang army enter Shu.

In addition, within one year from the date of engagement, the king can provide the supplies needed for the army of 100,000, and within two years, the supplies for the army of 200,000 will also be provided by the king.

With such a dowry, can King Beiliang still be satisfied?"

Hearing this, Xu Xiao was naturally moved, if Li Chengqian could provide the needs of the 200,000 army, he Beiliang would naturally have a way to feed the remaining 100,000 troops.

But for Bei Liang, that is, from being subject to Liyang to being subject to the King of Shu.

Not to mention, anyone can say anything, but what an astronomical amount of materials needed for an army of 200,000 people, how can you believe it?

But at this moment, his mind that he had been refusing was also shaken.

In the final analysis, his old life, and even the life of the entire Beiliang Palace, are in the hands of others.

This is a prerequisite, but Xu Yanbing, who fell to the ground like a dead dog, has been reminding him.

It is precisely because of this that he will sit down and consider the feasibility of this matter.

Seeing that Xu Xiao had been shaken, Li Chengqian decided to take another dose of fierce medicine.

"The white-clothed case in the capital back then, I'm afraid King Beiliang still remembers it."

When the words fell, Xu Xiao couldn't control his expression in an instant, and his emotions fluctuated violently.

How did he not know about the case in white clothes in Beijing?

After all, the protagonist is his wife.

It was because of this that his wife died of serious injuries and died.

The hatred and resentment in his heart, who else in the world can match?

"This king can bring all the people involved in this case to you alive and leave them at your disposal."

Listening to Li Chengqian's flat voice, Xu Xiao could no longer suppress the emotions in his heart, and stood up suddenly.

"Is that true? How much do you know about the events of those days?"

Li Chengqian didn't say much, just got up and said, "This king heard that there is a Tingchao Pavilion in the Beiliang Palace, which covers a lot of martial arts in the world, and this king will wait for you in the Tingchao Pavilion for half a month, and after half a month, give me an answer."

He walked out of the lobby, and before leaving the door, he said loudly: "By the way, don't forget to send someone to bring some wine and food, this king heard that there is a very good maid named Jiang Ni in the house, so let her send it."
