Lucius still sat leisurely on the tower, drinking and drinking a little wine, and did not ask any more questions, but every morning he climbed up to the tower, sat on the tower and drank, and did not leave the tower until the sun was setting.

It can be said that this is not a thunder every day, and almost everyone in Edo Castle is no longer surprised, but the owner of the restaurant in the city is bitter.

Because he had to supply Lecius with good wine every day, seeing that the wine he had accumulated for many years was getting less and less, the restaurant owner really couldn't say what he was worried about.

In fact, seeing Lucius drinking in the castle tower every day, there was another person who was also unusually anxious, and that was Pavaro lurking in the army outside the city.

Seeing Lucius drinking every day and not asking anything at all, Pavaro simply had the illusion that he was living like a year, he always felt that Lucius should be brewing some conspiracy, but he could not calculate any results.

The uncertainty of not knowing what kind of plans Lucius had, what kind of calculations he had, and when he would explode made Pavaro feel very uneasy.

Pavaro couldn't help but complain in his heart: "Damn, if I wasn't just a split soul here, how could I not have calculated Lucius's conspiracy? ”

Just as Pavaro was complaining, the message from Pei Fu and Pei Lu was also delivered, and it was a small mole that could burrow into the ground who was responsible for transmitting the message between them.

The reason why the mole is used to transmit information is to prevent the carrier pigeon from being discovered, this mole is a special breed of the Tang Empire in Middle-earth, with a certain spirituality, can clearly distinguish the person who transmits the message, and also knows how to avoid danger.

He took the letterhead from the little mole's leg and fed him a spiritual seed that the little mole nibbled on, while Pavaro began to read the letterhead.

When you see it says on the letterhead. When they encountered many robbers along the way, and when it seemed that the robbers were deliberately trying to stop them from advancing, Pavaro couldn't help but whisper to himself: "Hmph, this is clearly the person sent by Lucius on purpose, the purpose is to prevent you from reaching. ”

But as soon as he finished speaking, Pavaro suddenly thought of something, and then saw some information on the letterhead about the robber's mouth.

Pavaro slapped his thigh and almost screamed, recovering to lower his voice and whisper in exasperation, "Damn it, that bastard of Lucius." Actually, there is such a plan, it turns out that he has already seen through a qiē and deliberately hung me here, right? Hmph, I won't be stupid to play with you. ”

At that moment, Pavaro wrote a letter and tied it to the little mole, and then let the mole leave along the hole in the ground from which he came.

After sending off the mole. Pavaro also packed up and left the camp immediately, taking advantage of the fact that the army had nothing to do these days, and the military discipline inevitably seemed a little loose, and he carefully tried not to attract anyone's attention to leave the camp.

It's just that Pavaro doesn't know. His every move was watched by others, and soon after he left the camp, Tokugawa Kazuto grasped one of his movements.

Then Tokugawa and the people hurried to the castle tower, and hurriedly brought the news of Pavaro's movements to Lucius: "Your Highness. Well, the guy had already escaped and left the camp. It seems to be rushing in the direction of Kyoto. ”

Lucius took a sip of the wine in the wine cup, nodded very calmly and replied, "Well, that guy really can't bear it, hehe, but I'm afraid he will be even more disappointed when he arrives in Kyoto." ”

Tokugawa Kazuto didn't understand the meaning of Lucius's words, but he still asked with some doubts, "Your Highness, are we going to chase that guy?"

Lucius smiled and shook his head: "No, why do you want to chase him? Now that everything is in my hands, the guy who heals himself and represents wisdom has now entered my trap. ”

Hearing this, Tokugawa and the people naturally didn't say anything more, and asked Lucius again: "Your Highness, what are we going to do next?"

"What's next? The next step is very simple, we will wait in Edo Castle, waiting for His Highness who has come from the Tang Empire. ”

Hearing that His Royal Highness the Tang Empire was coming, Tokugawa and the people were taken aback, and looked at Lucius with some nervousness and said, "Your Highness, the Tang Empire is the most powerful empire in Middle-earth, will they actually send the prince who thought they were to come to us to Fuso?"

Lucius nodded and said, "Well, a prince from the Tang Empire, he has already set foot on the land of Fuso and is heading towards Edo Castle, and we can just meet together." ”

Tokugawa and people became even more nervous, for most people in Fuso, Middle-earth is a mysterious place, and it is also synonymous with power, it can be said that in the eyes of most people in Fuso, the Tang Empire in Middle-earth is the most powerful behemoth, and it is the existence that Fuso can never defeat.

Now a prince from the Tang Empire is about to drive to Edo Castle, which really makes Tokugawa Kazuto feel a little overwhelmed, and even begins to worry about whether the other party will do anything to Edo Castle, if so, can he defend Edo Castle?

If you can't hold it, can you only give up Edo Castle? If you can really hold it, how can you face the anger of the powerful Tang Empire?

Seeing the uncertain expression on Tokugawa Kazuto's face, Lucius smiled and said: "Take it easy, in fact, the arrival of the prince of the Tang Empire indicates that the Tang Empire is already planning to negotiate peace with you, and that prince represents an attitude of the Tang Empire." ”

"What kind of attitude did the Tang Empire have towards us?" Tokugawa Kazuto was also curious.

Because it is rumored that the Tang Empire intends to control the whole of Fusang, turning Fusang into a vassal state of the Tang Empire, and becoming a stepping stone for the Tang Empire's expansion to the periphery.

And according to those rumors, the two sages of the Tang Empire are quite ambitious, and their eyes are definitely not only in the east, it seems that after they unify the entire East, they will definitely reach out to the West and try to expand the territory of the Tang Empire to the entire plane.

Fusang is the easternmost country of the Tang Empire, and if the Tang Empire wants to dominate the entire eastern sea area and conquer the sea of chaos, it must first control Fusang in its own hands.

So in fact, when he heard that the Tang Empire had sent a prince to arrive, Tokugawa and the people were very worried, and he was very worried that the prince was coming to receive Fusang on behalf of the two sages of the Tang Empire.

What was Lu Xius Natural Morality and people worried about, he said with a smile: "Don't worry, I'm afraid that the Tang Empire's current idea is not to completely control Fusang, but just to rely on its own strength to seek some benefits in Fusang." ”

Speaking of this, Lu Xiu paused for a moment and muttered: "If it looks like this, I'm afraid that the Tang Empire has also encountered problems in Middle-earth, or there are internal problems, and there is no way to continue to expand to the periphery for the time being." ”

Hearing Lucius's words, Tokugawa Kazuto suddenly breathed a sigh of relief, feeling that the whole person was a lot more relaxed, although he was still worried about the situation.

Lucius then shook his head again: "These are just my guesses, what is the real situation, we still have to wait for the arrival of the prince of the Tang Empire, but since we have to greet it, we must always make some preparations and give the other party a dismount." ”

Tokugawa and the people were shocked again, they didn't expect that Lucius would actually give the other party a dismount, and hurriedly persuaded: "Your Highness, then, that is the prince from the Tang Empire, we, if we give him a dismount, will it ......?"

Seeing that Tokugawa and the people were squeaking and whining for a long time, Lucius smiled and said, "Hehe, do you think the Tang Empire will be angry because of this? If that is the case, then the Tang Empire may not be able to dominate Middle-earth." ”

He stood up and patted Tokugawa Kazuto on the shoulder, making him relax: "Don't worry, I'll pay attention to the means and try not to embarrass that prince too much." ”

Tokugawa Kazuto nodded with a wry smile, but he didn't know what to say, after all, Lucius was a highness from the West, and it could be said that in terms of identity, Lucius and the prince of the Tang Empire were actually equal, so he had no way to stop Lucius.

For Lucius, he was also looking forward to meeting the prince of the Tang Empire, after all, he was going to Middle-earth and entering the Tang Empire.

If you can contact the prince of the Tang Empire in advance, you will definitely pave the way for yourself to enter the Tang Empire, and you will not be too passive after arriving in the Tang Empire.

At that time, the descendant of the King of Hearts would have taken too much advantage, and that was not the result that Lucius wanted to see, so the meeting with the prince of the Tang Empire was a major event that he was looking forward to very much now.

Therefore, for the sake of this important event, he even did not hesitate to design to scare Pavaro away, so that he could have the opportunity to meet the prince alone.

What Lucius is thinking about now is to devise a very interesting plan that can give the prince a disadvantage, let the other party understand his means, so that he will not despise himself, and at the same time leave a little face for the other party.

In the previous exchange with Du Liniang, Lucius has actually learned that Orientals have always been very respectful, especially those in Middle-earth who have their own pride, if they are disgraced, I am afraid that the next negotiations will become very difficult.

Therefore, Lucius must not only be able to deter the other party, but also leave some face for the other party, so that the other party feels that he can defeat him, and the reason why he fell into his trap is because he took the lead and calculated him.

This kind of strategy is really difficult for Lucius, after all, there are many ways to deter the other party, but it is really difficult to find a way to deter the other party and take care of the other party's face.

After thinking about it for a long time, Lucius finally came up with a way to get the best of both worlds, and whispered the solution to Tokugawa Kazuto, and told Tokugawa Kazuto what he needed to do.

After listening to Lucius's method, Tokugawa and the people couldn't help but be dumbfounded, and fixed Lucius in shock, and squeaked and whined for a long time before saying: "Your Highness, you, do you really want to do this? Isn't this a bit too ruthless? If we hurt that prince, I'm afraid the Tang Empire won't let us go." ”

Regarding Tokugawa and people's worries, Lucius said very calmly: "Hehe, don't worry, I won't want his life, just give him a dismissal." (To be continued......)
