"Zhao Ding, that kid, is he really willing to exchange his military crossbow in Youzhou for my Northern Liang's smelting technique?"

In the Beiliang Palace,

Listening to Xiao Dingxuan's report, Xiao Daocheng raised his brows and looked at Xiao Dingxuan with interest.

"Yes, Zhao Ding did say this to Ercheng."

Xiao Dingxuan nodded.

After speaking, he looked at Xiao Daocheng and asked, "Father, then we will promise him?" ”

"Can you not say yes? Time is running out. ”

Xiao Daocheng smiled bitterly, and looked out the window with emotion, "Seize this opportunity, no matter what, help me get through this hurdle first." ”

Hearing Xiao Daocheng's words, Xiao Dingxuan was suddenly overjoyed: "Yes, father." ”

But as soon as he finished speaking, Xiao Daocheng warned again: "But although you cooperate with that Zhao Ding, you can't be underestimated, this person is very calculating, and he has a lot of ghost ideas, you must not underestimate him,

In this matter, you will first do what you agreed with Zhao Ding before, and as for other things, I will also cooperate. ”

"Yes, Father."

Hearing Xiao Daocheng's words, Xiao Dingxuan bowed down again, but then frowned a little and said: "Father, are you too cautious, in my opinion, Zhao Ding seems to have some friendship with the jade slave, and now there is a big threat ahead, in my opinion, Zhao Ding should not calculate my beam." ”

Xiao Dingxuan said with some uncertainty.

"Don't you count my girders?"

Hearing this, Xiao Daocheng sneered, "Since he Zhao Ding dares to let Lao Tzu Chen soldiers on the border of my Northern Liang, as a warning to me about Daliang, one day, he will really dare to join forces with Dayu to send troops against my Liang." ”

"Father, this is serious."

Xiao Dingxuan's face changed slightly, and he said solemnly: "Right now, Da Yu is threatened, my Da Liang and him Zhao Qian are grasshoppers tied to the same boat, what is the benefit of Zhao Ding if Zhao Ding makes a move on my Da Liang?"

Xiao Dingxuan looked at his father with some puzzlement.

Xiao Daochang sighed and said, "But a weak beam is far more beneficial to him Zhao Qian than a strong beam." ”

The nations have never had faith in their relations.

There are only eternal interests, there are no eternal camps.

At present, Da Yu is strong, the changes in Nan Chen are undecided, and the forces of Da Qian and Da Li cannot compete with Da Yu.

That naturally requires him to use Beiliang to maneuver around.

But what if you don't need it one day?

Hearing Xiao Daocheng's words, Xiao Dingxuan frowned and was silent.

He seemed to understand the meaning of his father's words.

Xiao Daocheng continued: "There is an interesting story recently, do you want to hear it? ”

"What's the funny thing?"

Xiao Dingxuan frowned and asked.

"It was not only my Liang who submitted the credentials to Zhao Qian this time, but in fact, Nan Chen Wen Ziheng also submitted the credentials at the same time."

"What does he mean by presenting his credentials?"

Xiao Dingxuan frowned slightly and asked suspiciously. , "Could it be that he Wen Ziheng doesn't want to avenge his son?" ”

Zhao Ding and Wen Liang's affairs, he naturally knows.

This matter also set off a lot of fluctuations within Beiliang at the beginning, and Xiao Yunu was also in Youzhou at the beginning, so it was impossible for him not to know about this matter.

For Zhao Ding's original Yin Death and gentleness, he Xiao Dingxuan also coveted it for a long time, but he also understood that Zhao Ding could not give this thing.

Xiao Daocheng said with a smile: "Then you can underestimate that Wen Ziheng, not only did he not think about avenging his dead ghost son, but instead proposed to open the border trade between the two countries." ”

"Open trade between the two countries? Is Wen Ziheng's bearing so big? Or is this just a delaying tactic? ”

Xiao Dingxuan sighed lightly, frowned and looked at his father, and was even more curious in his words.

"That's a delaying tactic, of course."

Xiao Daocheng said with a smile, "You and I can see this, and Zhao Chongyuan can naturally see it, but he still agreed, and he also agreed to the mutual market.

That's where the fun comes in. ”

"Erchen doesn't understand."

Xiao Dingxuan shook his head.

Knowing that Zhao Ding killed Wen Liang and Wen Ziheng had a grudge against killing his son, Zhao Chongyuan also agreed to Wen Ziheng's plan to delay the army, this is not raising tigers for trouble.

Could it be that Zhao Qian is really not afraid of Wen Ziheng's revenge?

Xiao Daocheng continued: "Not only do you not understand this matter, but I also understood it a little when I first learned about it, but with some things that have happened recently, I can understand it. ”

Xiao Dingxuan didn't say anything and stood aside, listening to his father continue to speak.

"The situation in Nanchen is scorching, and the remnants of the Yuan clan don't know who quickly integrated it in a short period of time, and now they have been in a stalemate with Wen Ziheng in Tonggu, and it is said that there is also a military crossbow unique to Youzhou,

And you don't know why there is also an armory accidentally stolen, and a passage was dug out of the ground to Qingcheng, at this time Youzhou has been martial law, saying that it was a spy of the South Chen Yuan clan.

But the problem is that Youzhou has never been stolen before, let alone an armory.

There is another thing, which is even more interesting, Zhao Gan's official Shangshu Ye Liancheng suddenly increased the price, asking Nan Chen to cede Gyeongju, and Yunzhou to give him Nan Chen, otherwise he would send troops to Nan Chen.

It is said that Wen Ziheng had reported to Dayu and wanted Dayu to send troops, but when Dayu sent troops, those Mobei alien races that had become unfashionable suddenly went south and plundered several cities on the border of Dayu. ”

"What? The Mobei alien race is rising again? ”

As soon as these words came out, Xiao Dingxuan was shocked.

He knows very well how difficult the Mobei alien race is, sixty years ago, he gathered the power of the five countries to go deep into the desert and completely cripple the Mobei royal court, so that the unified Mobei alien race fell into civil strife again.

But now the Mobei alien race has actually gone south again?

"Don't you think it's funny?"

Xiao Daocheng was not the slightest surprised, and looked at Xiao Dingxuan with a smile.

"Father, what do you mean?"

Xiao Dingxuan frowned slightly when he heard this.

However, speaking of this, Xiao Daocheng did not continue to speak, waved his hand and said: "Go, then Hu Tiansheng should be coming, just do what Zhao Ding instructs, as for other things, you don't care,

I'll take care of it. ”

"Yes, Father."

Hearing Xiao Daocheng's words, Xiao Dingxuan frowned, stopped talking, bowed to Xiao Daocheng, and walked towards the outside of the main hall.

But before he could take two steps, Xiao Daocheng's voice sounded again: "If you can make friends with that Zhao Ding, you can make friends." ”

Hearing this, Xiao Dingxuan's footsteps paused slightly.

But he nodded after all.

Keep walking outside.

Looking at Xiao Dingxuan's departing back, Xiao Daocheng's eyes flickered, and he muttered to himself: "To stay or not to stay?" ”

"Ugh."

After a long moment, a long sigh rang out in the room.
