The three of them took their seats, Chuanying sat on the left, eyes slightly closed.
After Xu Xiao glanced at it, he looked at Ling Ruxin who was sitting on the right, and said calmly: "Sir, sir, come to Beiliang again, what's the important matter?
If there is anyone who needs me, just speak up and I will do my best."
There is a sense of atmosphere in the calmness, but also a bit of alienation.
Liao Ruxin smiled nonchalantly and said kindly: "To be honest with you, the prince, the master of Chuanying Palace and I are here for two things only.
One, on behalf of the city lord, I would like to invite the prince and the Prince of Beiliang to enter our Black Dragon City."
Xu Xiao's expression did not change, as if he had expected it, but he still said calmly: "Thank you City Lord for taking this seriously, but I am the King of Liyang Beiliang, so there is no need to talk about entering Black Dragon City."
"Your Majesty, if you are not in a hurry to refuse, you might as well listen to the second thing first." Liao Ruxin said with a smile.
"Please tell me." Xu Xiao said calmly and steadily.
"The princess of Suwen Beiliang Palace is gentle, virtuous, and extremely beautiful.
My city lord loves her so much that he specially asked me to come to propose marriage and ask the prince to make it happen." Liao Ruxin lowered her head slightly and said solemnly.
Xu Xiao's expression changed for the first time.
There was a cold light like substance in his eyes, which was breathtaking, and even the void became ten times heavier silently.
He looked at Ru Xin coldly, feeling as oppressive as a mountain or a sea.
You Ruxin's face does not change, and you face it calmly.
Facing a figure like the King of Northern Liang alone, he would naturally not be able to remain calm, but with the Black Dragon City standing behind him, he would not feel the least bit afraid.
"What do you mean?" Xu Xiao spoke like a sick tiger who hadn't woken up, without any emotion.
"That's exactly what I meant."
Liao Ruxin talked eloquently: "As the saying goes, it is the right time for men to get married, and it is time for girls to get married. The princess has also reached the age of marriage.
And my city lord is only about thirty years old now, and the Black Dragon City under my command is looking at the world.
Looking at the entire human world, who can compare to my city lord?
The city lord and the princess are a match made in heaven."
"Hmph, I have also heard about City Lord Li. He has married more than a dozen people. What is he asking my daughter to do?" Xu Xiao snorted lightly, his tone gradually filled with suppressed cold anger.
“It has been a common thing since ancient times for a good husband to have a group of wives and concubines.
The Black Dragon City dominates the territory, so it is inevitable to marry more. I think the prince can understand.
Moreover, Your Majesty can go and find out that my city lord is actually a very devoted person. All ladies have equal status. He has never favored the new over the old and neglected any lady.
The city lord's kindness to all the ladies is well known to everyone.
Among all the heroes since ancient times, my city lord has never cared for his family so much.
Besides, if the city lord was really lustful, how could he only have more than a dozen wives?
I dare to swear on my life that if the princess marries our Black Dragon City, she will receive the utmost love and protection from the city lord, and no matter what happens, she will not be hurt or wronged in the slightest."
Liao Ru was confident and said decisively.
Across from him, Chuanying's closed eyes moved, and the corners of his eyebrows twitched imperceptibly.
"Ha, according to you, City Lord Li is really a perfect man." Xu Xiao chuckled, with a hint of sarcasm in his tone.
"As a subordinate, I dare not comment on the city lord.
But looking at the six realms, in terms of strength, character, and conditions, no one can compare to him." Liao Ruxin said with full confidence.
Without waiting for Xu Xiao to say anything, he spoke solemnly again: "Given the current situation in the Northern Liang Palace, the prince should know very well that no matter who the princess marries, she will not be happy.
Only by marrying the city lord can she live a safe life and not be bullied by anyone.
Please, Your Majesty, think twice."
Xu Xiao's face moved, but he didn't say anything. Only his hands hidden under the wide sleeves of his robe were clenched into fists at some point.
Liao Ruxin was not in a hurry and waited quietly.
From beginning to end, he was very confident.
In this plan, as long as Xu Xiao is a smart person, he has no second choice.
Even if he is really stubborn, Black Dragon City will help him make a choice.
A murderous figure who rose from the bottom, but loves only one woman in his life.
Such legendary figures are actually easier to deal with sometimes.
"Sincerity."
Xu Xiao's eyes were lowered, making it difficult to see clearly. Only ten breaths later, a cold voice sounded.
"The city lord personally promised that, first of all, Beiliang will always be Beiliang and will always belong to Xu Zi's banner." Liao Ruxin said immediately.
After a pause, he showed a smile and said: "As for the other things, please feel free to speak.
I would like to tell you personally that the city lord has always been the most generous to all the ladies.
Your Majesty, you can open your mouth like a lion."
Xu Xiao did not give an answer in the end, and Liao Ruxin and Chuanying left.
Although she didn't get the answer she wanted, Ru Ruxin felt relaxed.
Such a major matter cannot be completely decided in one or two talks.
And looking at the current situation, it's not far off.
After Liao Ruxin and Chuanying left, the middle-aged man with a somewhat gloomy temperament walked out from behind again.
He is none other than Li Yishan, the chief counselor and military advisor of the Northern Liang Palace.
"Your Majesty is moved." He said the same thing again.
"What do you think?" Xu Xiao didn't raise his eyes, looking more like a sick tiger.
Li Yishan was silent for a while, then looked solemn and said seriously: "This is indeed one of the best ways out in Beiliang."
"I don't know that Li Daoqiang." Xu Xiao said indifferently.
"He is a peerless hero. As long as the Northern Liang Palace continues to be strong, the princess will not be wronged no matter what." Li Yishan said calmly.
"I thought you would hesitate." Xu Xiao raised one eye and looked at Li Yishan.
"The feelings of family and country are nothing to people like me.
Although they were different worlds before, now they are all in the human world and the human race.
My whole life is only for the Northern Liang Palace." Li Yishan said calmly.
Xu Xiao closed his eyes and raised his head, saying nothing.
But Li Yishan knew that he was really moved.
Just one last push.
This thrust is not difficult either.
night.
Xu Xiao's family all ate together.
Two daughters and two sons.
The two sons are obviously still young, and the older one is only a teenager.
The two girls have both emerged and become graceful and graceful, and their country is beautiful and fragrant.
One is gentle and quiet, the other is heroic.
What is the same is the touch of spirituality between the eyebrows of the two women.
After dinner, Xu Xiao deceived the noisy elder son into leaving with a few words, and asked the second daughter to take the younger son out to play.
The two women looked at Xu Xiao deeply, said nothing, and walked away.
The eldest daughter, Xu Zhihu, looked at Xu Xiao with her spiritual eyes as if she could speak.
Xu Xiao's eyes were unnaturally evasive.
"Dad, if you have anything to say, just say it. Second sister and Fengnian are not here." Xu Zhihu smiled gently, but as a teenager, she exuded an air of magnanimity and intellectual calmness.
