"Intrusion?" Cao Jingchun smiled disapprovingly.

Chu Xiang said: "We fully have the strength."

Cao Jingchun sighed: "Once Dayun attacks us, if you just sit back and watch, I, Dayong, will be in danger. Do you think we will take this risk?"

"Then how do you believe us?" Chu Xiang frowned.

Cao Jingchun shook his head.

Chu Xiang said in a deep voice: "If you are unlucky, our turn will be next. How could we do such a stupid thing?"

"Even if you want to help us, you will probably delay it until we are still able to breathe after being severely hit by Dayun." Cao Jingchun said: "In this way, we, Dayong, will become the weakest party.

"

"This way we will worry that you will completely defect to Dayun." Chu Xiang shook his head: "You will never do such a stupid thing."

Cao Jingchun said: "But by that time, Dayun will be on the same level as us, and I'm afraid he won't accept us. How can he still believe in us after repeated attempts?"

Chu Xiang said: "Dayun also puts interests first."

"They are qualified to be willful." Cao Jingchun said.

The two of them faced each other in silence.

For a while, there was only a gentle breeze.

The bamboo forest below was rustling, and the blue waves were surging one after another.

Both of them had tense faces and serious expressions.

After facing the breeze for a long time, Cao Jingchun finally shook his head: "So, it is better not to see each other than not to see each other."

He clasped his fists and said, "Prince Xin, I'm going to say goodbye. I won't catch you this time. I'll give you a little bit of noodles."

"There's always a way, right?" Chu Xiang said unwillingly.

"What can you do if you talk without any evidence?" Cao Jingchun smiled: "Even if we write an oath, we still don't believe each other."

"I have a method." Chu Xiang said solemnly.

Cao Jingchun said: "Tell me and listen."

"Proton." Chu Xiang said: "Since we don't trust each other, we will send a hostage. If we violate the covenant, we can kill the hostage."

"The hostage..." Cao Jingchun said with a smile: "I originally thought your idea was to form a marriage."

Chu Xiang shook his head: "The restrictions on marriage are not enough."

Cao Jingchun said: "In fact, we can consider marriage. Once we get married, we will sign an oath. Dayun will naturally know about it and will not start a war rashly. Our goal will be achieved."

Chu Xiang said slowly: "If there is a marriage, which side will marry? Which side will marry?"

"Of course we will marry you," Cao Jingchun said with a smile, "Now you are begging us, isn't that true?"

Chu Xiang shook his head: "Impossible."

"That's a pity. You can think about it carefully." Cao Jingchun said: "It is said that Her Royal Highness the Fifteenth Princess is very beautiful and extremely favored by Emperor Daqian. If she can marry Prince Ming, the emperor will definitely agree to this alliance.

"

"Absolutely impossible!" Chu Xiang said solemnly.

There is no way he would agree to such conditions. The original alliance was mutual, not one party's.

Although Prince Ming is the most powerful prince.

Cao Jingchun chuckled: "Then go back and think about it carefully."

"If you don't agree, then we can only talk to Dayun." Chu Xiang said: "Compared with forming an alliance with you, Dayun will benefit more from forming an alliance with our Daqian, right?"

Cao Jingchun laughed: "Dayun has a lot of enmity with you, how could he form an alliance with you."

Chu Xiang said in a deep voice: "There are no eternal enemies, only eternal interests. Dayun will agree."

Cao Jingchun shook his head and smiled.

But my heart was awe-inspiring.

This really cannot be ignored.

After all, Dayun and Daqian are adjacent to each other. It would indeed be more convenient for Dayun and Daqian to form an alliance to jointly deal with Dayong, which would increase the national power by leaps and bounds.

Chu Xiang said: "You should think about it carefully, or exchange hostages, or we can talk to Dayun and say goodbye."

He turned around and walked away. He jumped onto the bamboo shoots and floated away on the bamboo shoots, disappearing in the blink of an eye.

Cao Jingchun stood on the stone in the sky, looking down at his figure gradually disappearing, his expression was solemn, and his eyes were shining like cold stars.

——

Chu Xiang descended the mountain in one breath, going down the south side of the mountain in the opposite direction to Cao Jingchun's guards.

He returned to a small courtyard in Tianjing City. Fa Kong was already sitting at the stone table in the courtyard, and he stood up to sit down.

"No." Chu Xiang shook his head: "It seems that they have no intention of forming an alliance."

"Marriage..." Fakong said, "It's really not sincere."

The restrictions on marriage are very small, let alone marrying a prince, even marrying an emperor is the same.

At the critical moment, the harem did not have that great influence on the emperor.

Chu Xiang said: "It seems there is no need to talk."

"What about being hostages to each other?"

"I don't think they have considered this at all." Chu Xiang said, "After all, this is still very dangerous."

If protons are sent, the protons will be too dangerous.

Dayun will definitely try his best to kill Proton and thereby provoke the relationship between the two countries.

Once Proton dies, even if it is known that Dayun killed him, the relationship between the two countries will be affected.

However, ordinary princes cannot be used as protons because they are not of sufficient weight. A prince of sufficient weight is needed.

How could the emperor be so cruel?

Da Qian was in a hurry, but Da Yong was not in a hurry, so he would never agree to this condition, and the two sides reached a deadlock.

"We can't negotiate if this continues." Chu Xiang frowned and said, "Master, it seems that we are going to end in vain. I'm really not willing to accept it."

Fakong said: "Prince Chun needs to discuss things with Emperor Dayong. Don't be in a hurry. Let's talk about it later."

He has experienced many negotiations, not to mention country-to-country negotiations, and negotiations between two companies have to go through many rounds of difficult judgments.

Chu Xiang sighed.

He felt it was almost impossible to succeed.

He absolutely disagrees with the marriage. It is very likely that he will ruin his younger sister and fail to achieve the purpose of the alliance. In the end, he will only be left with regret.

Can be protons for each other...

"They probably hope that we will be the only ones to send the protons." Chu Xiang frowned and said, "They don't have to send them."

He hummed: "I absolutely cannot agree to that."

Such an alliance is unfair and comes from begging. Da Gan only has obligations, but the other party has no obligations. It is nothing more than an alliance under the city.

But they will say that once they form an alliance with Daqian, they will inevitably face Dayun's revenge, and they need Daqian to guarantee that they will send troops to help when the time comes, so they need hostages.

Fakong said: "Your Majesty, this matter cannot be rushed. Take your time."

"Alas——!" Chu Xiang shook his head and said: "I have a feeling that this trip will not go smoothly, and I am afraid that I will not achieve my goal."

Fa Kong smiled and said nothing.

——

In the evening of the third day.

When Cao Jingchun returned to the palace's study again, the lights in the study had been lit and were as bright as day.

As soon as he came in, he saw a letter on the desk.

He sat over and opened it, took out the letter and read an article. His face was slightly cold and he said in a deep voice: "Here comes someone!"

"Your Majesty." Li Huadu opened the door and came in, his silver eyebrows shining in the light and his eyes bright.

Cao Jingchun sat at the desk: "I will go to Lingkong Temple again tomorrow morning."

"Yes." Li Hua nodded: "I will make arrangements right away."

"Also, send four people to touch Biyou Mountain. I suspect there will be someone waiting there."

"Yes!" Li Huadu said in a deep voice.

"Be careful and keep things secret."

"yes."

Li Hua clasped his fists and left the study.
