Xuanyuan Jingcheng understood what Wang Yue meant. He hesitated and said, "If we give up Huishan, I'm afraid our Xuanyuan family won't be able to command the world's waters, and our strength will probably be reduced."
Wang Yue saw that Xuanyuan was reluctant to enter the city, so he reminded him, "Now that Zhao Huangchao has died here, I'm afraid the Liyang Dynasty will not give up. It's still too late to move quickly now, and they can just snatch it back in the future. As long as the person is still there, everything will
There is room for change.”
After Xuanyuan Jingcheng heard Wang Yue's words, he nodded and said, "Actually, I think as long as you are safe and sound, the royal family is unlikely to take action against us in Huishan. However, I can do as you say and arrange some
People moved to Nanzhao."
Wang Yue was very happy to see Xuanyuan Jingcheng agreeing so quickly, so he smiled and said, "In that case, I'll trouble my uncle to arrange for someone to go to Beiliang and transport my war horses to Nanzhao."
Xuanyuan Jingcheng quickly agreed, and then asked doubtfully, "No problem, I wonder where you are going next?"
Wang Yue said with a smile, "I will probably go to Shangyin Academy next, then I will go to the old land of Western Chu, then I will go to Beimang to find the prince of Western Shu, and finally I will go back to Nanzhao Kingdom."
Xuanyuan Jingcheng heard that Wang Yue's trip might take some time, so he quickly said, "In that case, let Qingfeng go shopping with you."
Seeing what Xuanyuan Jingcheng said, Xuanyuan Qingfeng had no intention of objecting. She now truly believed in Wang Yue's strength and wanted to make a breakthrough as soon as possible with Wang Yue.
She hesitated for a moment and then said, "Wang Yue, can you leave a few days later? I have something to say to my mother."
Of course Wang Yue understood what Xuanyuan Qingfeng wanted to do. After all, her mother and her father were having relationship problems, and she wanted to reconcile them.
He nodded and said, "No problem, I just want to see if there will be any action in Tai'an City. As long as I am here, Huishan will definitely be safe and sound."
Xuanyuan Qingfeng quickly glanced at Wang Yue gratefully, and then walked towards her mother. She had to persuade her parents.

Beiliang Prince's Mansion, Tingchao Pavilion
Xu Xiao went to Tai'an City and helped Xu Fengnian settle the hereditary affairs, which made him feel so happy.
After a few days of being happy with the result, he listened to the report from his subordinates and hurriedly went to Tingchao Pavilion to discuss it with someone.
After seeing Li Yishan, he said solemnly, "Yishan, I originally thought that I looked up to Wang Yue very highly, but I didn't expect that I still underestimated him. He actually put Zhao Huangchao, Han Diao Temple, and six first-grade
All the masters were killed! One person killed eight."
Li Yishan also frowned. He said with some confusion, "Not to mention whether there is really no one to help him, but how could he dare to kill? Doesn't he want to restore the country? There seems to be no benefit to doing so at this time.
ah."
Xu Xiao was a little dissatisfied when he heard what Li Yishan said. He said angrily, "Han Diao Temple and Zhao Huangchao teamed up to kill Wang Yue. They were killed by Wang Yue because they were not good at learning. Why can't they be killed?
If someone comes to kill me, of course I will kill him too! I'm just a little sorry. After this assassination, the few chances Wang Yue owed me will be wiped out."
It was really a pity for him. He didn't expect that the royal family would send so many experts to go with him at once, and one person would have a chance to attack, but he would still owe Wang Yue a thousand fine war horses.
Li Yishan has been pondering Wang Yue's thoughts. After hearing what Xu Xiao said, he immediately said solemnly, "If I am not wrong, Wang Yue is preparing to attack the court's prestige!"
Xu Xiao's expression also became serious. Of course he knew what this meant.
Since ancient times, there has been a saying that chivalrous people use force to break the ban. If Wang Yue can really destroy the prestige of the Li An Dynasty, then the court will no longer be able to control the affairs of the world.
This is a very terrible thing.
He hesitated for a moment and then said uncertainly, "There are many masters in the royal family. Although Wang Yue was able to kill Zhao Huangchao and Han Diao Si, if Emperor Liyang risked his life, I'm afraid he would also fall.
.”
Li Yishan shook his head and said solemnly, "I'm afraid it will be difficult to kill Wang Yue. You have forgotten that he was able to rescue Lao Huang from Wang Xianzhi. Even Wang Xianzhi cannot keep him. Unless a certain death situation is arranged, otherwise
There is absolutely nothing we can do against him."
Xu Xiao thought about it for a while and then said uncertainly, "It seems that the imperial court can only wait for him to return to the country. By then, he will have concerns about him, so that he can be captured in one fell swoop."
Li Yishan also nodded and said solemnly, "It seems that our original layout also needs to be changed."
Xu Xiao nodded, shook his head, and said with some uncertainty, "Actually, there is nothing to change. At most, we can take the opportunity to negotiate a condition and ask the emperor of Tai'an City to hand over the murderer of Su Su. There is nothing we can do."
Li Yishan shook his head. He took out a map, and then said solemnly, "Although Qingzhou is the gateway to protect our Beiliang, Yongzhou, Quanzhou, Jizhou and Kunzhou are the ones in contact with us. We also have this buffer zone.
It can go on forever.
Quanzhou has been almost penetrated by us, and the court in Kunzhou is very guarded against us, so there is no need to think about it.
However, if we have the land of Yongzhou, we can be self-sufficient with at least 50% of our food and grass, which is what we need to get our hands on."
Xu Xiao didn't expect Li Yishan to say that. He said with some uncertainty, "I'm afraid the court won't agree to it, right?"
Li Yishan looked at the map and said with a smile, "It might not be possible at other times, but it is different now."
Xu Xiao looked at the map and hesitated for a moment, then said uncertainly, "You mean, after Wang Yue restores the country in Nanzhao, I'm afraid he will take Bazhou, Xishu and Yizhou. By that time, the Liyang royal family will
Let us go south to attack Western Shu, King Yanla of southern Xinjiang attack Yizhou, and then let King Jing'an attack Bazhou, do you think we will fight to the death?"
Li Yishan nodded and said solemnly, "Yes, if we want to do this, we must get Yongzhou, otherwise we will fight across states.
The emperor of Liyang originally intended to reduce our troops. He could wait until we were exhausted from fighting, then send out a large army to decide the outcome in one battle.
Because of this, they are also afraid that we will not work hard and will attack with all our heart only when our borders are in contact. Therefore, they will definitely turn a blind eye to our annexation of Yongzhou."
Xu Xiao was a little suspicious. He said uncertainly, "Wang Yue is very strong, but it may not be easy to sweep through the three states just relying on Nanzhao."
Seeing that Xu Xiao was confused, Li Yishan reminded him, "Wang Yue deliberately killed Zhao Huangchao and Han Diaosi in Huishan, which left Huishan with no other choice but to seek refuge with him."
Xu Xiao clapped his palms together, and then exclaimed, "Wang Yue is so calculating. As long as he returns to Nanzhao, he will definitely convince the chieftains from all over the country. And with the full support of Huishan, he wants to capture Bazhou."
A piece of cake.
If he gets help from the old troops of Western Chu, it will be easy to capture Yizhou. As for Western Shu..."
Li Yishan said solemnly, "There is a living royal descendant in Western Shu. He is now in Beimang. Wang Yue originally wanted to contact him. As long as he can find his help, Shuzhou will be in Wang Yue's hands."
Xu Xiao stood up in a flash, walked back and forth for a few steps, and then said solemnly, "In this way, Wang Yue is equivalent to having the land of four states. If the imperial court wants to suppress it, it will probably cause heavy casualties.
The emperor understands that once the losses of his troops and horses are too heavy, the vassal kings below will be unstable, so he can only order our three vassal princes to besiege Wang Yue as you said, and they will reap the benefits themselves.
.”
Li Yishan nodded and said solemnly, "That's right. Therefore, we should make preparations early and strive to swallow Yongzhou as soon as possible! Let Yongzhou be ours as soon as possible."

Yangzhou, Huting County, Lu Mansion
Xu Zhihu still didn't know what was going on outside. She asked curiously, "Fengnian, I heard that you used your horse to drag Liu Liting all the way to this place when the horse stepped on the middle gate. Are you not afraid of offending this Jiangnan man?"
A nobleman?"
However, Xu Fengnian immediately interrupted and said, "That person was greedy for his sister's beauty. After being rejected by her sister, he framed her and made her reputation so bad. I did this just to vent my anger.
Moreover, don’t cover up for Hong Xixiang. Since he has gone down to Wudang Mountain for you, why is he still living with you in the Lu family? Why doesn’t he take you away? "
Seeing that his brother-in-law was angry, Hong Xixiang quickly explained, "I wanted to take my sister away, but your sister didn't want to leave!"
Xu Fengnian became angry when he heard this. He said angrily, "You are already a master in the celestial realm. If you forcefully take my sister away, can my sister still resist?
You followed Wang Yue's example and carried Princess Jing'an away in front of King Jing'an.
If you had half the courage of Wang Yue, I would leave my eldest sister to you and I would be relieved."
Hong Xixiang actually wanted to do this, but Xu Zhihu just glared at him, and he immediately became intimidated and couldn't make any subsequent moves.
After hearing Xu Fengnian's ridicule, he opened his mouth but did not say any explanation.
But Xu Zhihu quickly protected Hong Xixiang and said, "Fengnian, listening to the tone of your words, do you really want your arrogant second sister to go to Nanzhao to be a concubine?"
Although Xu Fengnian also knew that Xu Zhihu was deliberately changing the subject, he still couldn't help but said, "Sister, I have never seen that Wang Yue, and it is not an exaggeration to describe him as a fairy.
The point is that he is different from those gods who are rumored to kill wantonly. Although they are a bit lustful, they are also extraordinary.
There are not many people as proud and arrogant as my second sister who can match him. As long as my second sister is willing, then what reason do I have to stop her?"
