Li Chen groaned, gritted his teeth and said, "I can lend it to you, but you must return it to me within three months."

Zhao Xuanji stopped laughing and said, "Half a year."

Li Chen got angry and said: "Don't push yourself too far. I won't worry about something like the Great Liang Dragon Bird if you are not around for an hour. If I give it to you for three months at a time, how many things will it be enough for you to do?"

Zhao Xuanji shook his head and said: "This thing is a valuable treasure. Naturally, it cannot be taken out to show others, let alone used for a specific thing. It is to let people know that it is with me. If you don't use it, it is a symbol."

Only when it has meaning can it exert its greatest value, otherwise it is just a sharper magic weapon. What use does the old minister have for it? It will take at least half a year to build up enough deterrence."

"In the south, the only thing that can intimidate people is something of this level. Otherwise, when King Wen found out that you had intentions and actions to cut down the vassal, wouldn't you dare to take the risk and kill the old minister first, and then cause trouble for you? Don't

I underestimated King Wen’s ruthlessness and gangsterism.”

Zhao Xuanji's words made Li Chen's face darken.

"Four months is the limit."

Li Chen glanced at Zhao Xuanji, and when he saw that he was about to speak, he quickly interrupted: "It's not that I'm stingy. In April of the new year, I will be useful."

In April, spring is over and the weather is warming up and entering summer.

At that time, the news of the emperor's death could not be concealed.

But this matter cannot be mentioned to Zhao Xuanji at this time under any circumstances.

Although Li Chen didn't explain why it was useful, Zhao Xuanji could feel that Li Chen's words were definitely not an excuse, but really useful.

What could make Li Chen so afraid now? With his current power and power, he still needs Daliang Longque as a guarantee?

Zhao Xuanji narrowed his eyes slightly.

This question was pressed into his mind as soon as it arose.

He didn't inquire, because it would be useless to inquire.

The seemingly pleasant talks that have taken place so far are actually still essentially a compromise between the two biggest political opponents. As long as this essence remains unchanged, there will be no real heart-to-heart talk between the two.

An old fox who had just stepped down from the position of Minister of Provincial Affairs and became the first king with a different surname in the Qin Empire in a century, and a prince who had the power to supervise the country and whose authority was no less than that of the real emperor. How could there be a true heart-to-heart relationship between the two people?

?

If one of them dies, the other person may sigh at his peak loneliness at his grave.

But as long as two people can still breathe, there will definitely be guarding and fear of each other.

So Zhao Xuanji just thought for a moment, then nodded and said, "Okay, four months then."

Li Chen breathed a sigh of relief.

If Zhao Xuanji still insists, he really doesn't know what to do.

At present, there are very few people and things that can force Li Chen into such a dilemma, but this old guy Zhao Xuanji can easily let him experience such a rare feeling.

After the topic was over, both of them were silent for a while, letting the carriage sway forward.

Maybe they all needed time to settle down, but no one said anything and just drank tea quietly.

After a moment, Zhao Xuanji broke the silence again.

"When the time comes, if conditions permit, please give me some trust, Your Highness."

This nonsense sentence came without any warning.
