Perhaps Dongcheng Wudi's stiff expression was too obvious. Li Huacheng, who had been observing his emotional changes, directly misunderstood his meaning. He obviously didn't want to give Dongcheng Wudi a chance to refuse. He must protect Li Kuangtu and fight for Dongcheng Wudi.
The support of Dongcheng Wudi is crucial. If Dongcheng Wudi expresses his support for Li Tianlan, then their next conversation will undoubtedly be much more difficult.
"We all understand the importance of the Dark World. In the past few years, the Dark World has been very chaotic, and various influences have been reflected in all aspects. But this is also an opportunity for us in Central Continent. The strength of Li Kuangtu is everyone's
It is obvious to all that the background of Tiandu Purgatory is also there, and their existence is very important to Central Continent."
Li Huacheng carefully considered his words and spoke word by word, speaking very slowly, so he appeared to be extremely cautious.
He suddenly smiled and continued: "Of course, the knot between him and Tian Lan is something that needs to be taken into consideration. Zhongzhou should be able to solve this problem. Whether we are willing to accept it or not, the facts are before us.
For now, the Li family no longer exists. What appears in front of us now is the East Palace and Tiandu Purgatory. I am going to find an opportunity to have a good talk with Kuangtu Li and let him understand the reality.
Whether Tianlan, Li Kuangtu, or even Gu Xingyun and Jiang Shangyu, their existence has made a certain contribution to Central Continent. This is good. Now that the dark world is in chaos, they are standing in the dark world.
Regarding combat effectiveness at the highest level, I hope they can focus on the outside world and try to reduce unnecessary friction."
His smile slowly faded and became solemn: "I will warn Li Kuangtu, and even Jiang Shangyu and Gu Xingyun, and ask them in the name of the parliament to maintain respect for Tianlan in the future. Only by uniting can we have success."
Bigger gains.”
"Do you think Tianlan will agree?"
Dongcheng Wudi took out a cigarette, lit it, took a deep breath, and then asked slowly.
"Tianlan is your son."
Li Huacheng smiled, his eyes burning.
"You are mistaken about one thing."
Dongcheng Wudi said in a low voice: "Tianlan is indeed my son, but he has left the family since he was a child. The Dongcheng family now has no right to ask him to do anything, let alone to restrain him. Tianlan has never owed anything to the Dongcheng family, which happens to be
On the contrary, we owe him a lot."
Li Huacheng was silent for a long time, then twitched his lips and said softly: "No matter what, Zhongzhou must protect Kuangtu Li. Invincible, you and I have known each other for many years. You know who I am and how important Kuangtu Li is to Zhongzhou."
Sex. Considering all aspects, keeping Li Kuangtu is also a kind of protection for Tianlan to a certain extent. I don’t believe you don’t understand this truth.”
Holding a piece of beef between his hands, he said in a slow but firm voice: "Kuantu Li, you must stay."
This sentence is not loud
, but extremely determined.
Dongcheng Wudi looked at Li Huacheng coldly and said nothing for a while.
Li Huacheng expressed his attitude.
From another perspective, his meaning is also obvious.
That is, no matter what Dongcheng Wudi thinks, he will keep Li Kuangtu.
If Dongcheng Wudi supports his decision, everyone will be happy.
If Dongcheng Wudi rejects Li Huacheng, Li Huacheng will do the same.
After all, he is the president of Central Continent. If he is really determined to keep Li Kuangtu, who would really dare to touch him?
If Li Tianlan really killed him in his rage, the entire Central Continent would not have a single foothold in the East Imperial Palace.
If Li Tianlan has sense and does not kill Kuangtu Li, but does not let him go, Zhongzhou will definitely take corresponding measures to put pressure on the East Palace.
Economic assistance in all aspects, publicity through multiple channels, resource support in various fields, armaments support...
There is no doubt about the current strength of the East Palace.
But after all, the development time was shorter, and they were far from reaching the point where they could still develop rapidly after leaving Central Continent. The foundation of Donghuang Palace was indeed in Tiannan, but Li Tianlan's foundation was in Central Continent.
If Zhongzhou is really determined to cut off all support for the East Palace, with the financial support of the Shengshi Fund, the East Palace will not disappear, but it will definitely lose the opportunity for the fastest development.
Or just stay there with no pain or itch.
Or leave Central Continent completely.
What Li Huacheng and Guo Wentian said was actually correct.
With Li Tianlan's current status, if he leaves Central Continent, many countries, including the Star Kingdom, the Continental Alliance, the Snow Country, and the East Island, will desperately come over to win over Li Tianlan to join him. As long as Li Tianlan is willing to let those people kneel down and lick him, they will all
willing.
An absolutely invincible strong man in the dark world cannot be measured by some resources and money. Now Li Tianlan, it is no exaggeration to say, is already a super heavyweight who can affect the national destiny of a superpower in the next few decades.
.
But if this is really the choice, only Li Tianlan and a small group of people from the Eastern Palace will leave Central Continent.
It is impossible for Zhongzhou to allow this to happen. This is tantamount to true treason. Under the thunderous wrath of the parliament, the entire Eastern Imperial Palace will be completely destroyed even without Xuanyuan City.
This is the worst ending. It is not what Li Huacheng wants to see, and it is also not what Donghuang Palace is willing to bear.
But even if this step is not reached, Zhongzhou suppresses it from many parties, and Li Huacheng insists on keeping Li Kuangtu, which will make Li Tianlan and Zhongzhou gradually drift apart, and Li Huacheng is equivalent to directly becoming the opposite of Li Tianlan.
what does that mean?
He is the president of Central Continent.
This identity should never be the opposite of anyone.
He has suppressed the wealthy groups and the Southeast Group, and given up on the wealthy groups, but no matter what he does, he is not essentially an enemy of other people. Even if he is suppressing the Eastern Palace now, it is just for the balance of Central Continent.
But once you actually come across as the opposite of Li Tianlan, the meaning becomes completely different.
Li Tianlan will not have an easy time.
Li Huacheng will not have an easy time in the future either.
This is equivalent to losing both sides, and it is also not what Li Huacheng and Li Tianlan are willing to bear.
Therefore, Dongcheng Wudi has become the best buffer.
If he persuades Dongcheng Wudi and Dongcheng Wudi represents Zhongzhou to talk to Li Tianlan about Li Kuangtu's issue, this will undoubtedly be the best situation.
Li Huacheng doesn't want to enmity with Donghuang Palace, all he wants is balance.
Li Tianlan is young and energetic, and he may do something impulsively that everyone will regret, but Dongcheng Wudi will definitely consider it for him.
Therefore, Li Huacheng believes that the possibility of convincing Dongcheng Invincible is still very high.
And all he needs to pay is nothing more than an exchange of benefits.
"Is this a threat?"
Dongcheng Wudi was silent for a while, then suddenly laughed: "Haha, it must be... you rarely say this word. On various occasions."
"It's not a threat."
Li Huacheng shook his head: "I just want to work hard to create a situation that everyone can accept. This is a discussion with you, it can even be said to be a request. It doesn't matter, Kuangtu Li, there is no room for failure."
Dongcheng Wudi put out the cigarette butt in the ashtray in silence.
Li Huacheng ate a piece of beef and suddenly smiled: "It's very fragrant. I heard Xiao Lin said it was sent here by Han Bing?"
Dongcheng Wudi glanced at Li Huacheng intentionally or unintentionally, nodded, and said nothing.
At this time, Li Huacheng's mention of Shi Hanbing seemed to be somewhat meaningful.
"This is your right-hand man in the Border Guard Corps. Have you ever considered transferring him to Youzhou to help you? The military department has a very heavy task, and having a capable general can save a lot of effort."
Li Huacheng continued to laugh.
Dongcheng Wudi also smiled and said calmly: "The Border Guard Corps is also a big stall, and it needs someone to take care of it."
Li Huacheng unconsciously tapped the edge of the dining table with the chopsticks in his hand, as if he was hesitating for something. This hesitation only lasted for a second and then disappeared.
He laughed and said calmly: "Can we let the Qing Dynasty go down?"
Dongcheng Wudi suddenly raised his head and looked at Li Huacheng.
Li Huacheng smiled calmly and had an inscrutable look on his face.
