"To be honest, I haven't regretted agreeing to Liu Ji that much.
But now that I heard that Jiu Fei might defect to Nanwang, I feel like I really regret agreeing to Liu Ji so readily." Sheriff Xiao said with a regretful tone.
In Sheriff Xiao's opinion, he should be more reserved, maybe he could increase his value even more.
But before, when Liu Ji came, he was only thinking about how to please King Nan.
At that time, he thought that if the King of Nan could come to him and submit to him, he would simply think highly of him.
That's why he didn't think too much.
"Sir, it is useless to think so much now. Besides, it is not certain whether Jiu Fei belongs to him or not.
The most important thing is that this is not the time to argue with that Jiu Fei." The butler continued.
"Hmph, this county guard is just unhappy with that Jiu Fei, and must kill him if there is a chance.
Besides, if he can talk to Liu Ji for so long, he must belong to the Southern King!" Sheriff Xiao snorted directly.
In his opinion, if Jiu Fei had not surrendered to the Southern King, Liu Ji would never have been able to talk to Jiu Fei for so long.
Suddenly, Commander Xiao's eyes lit up, and he came up with an idea: "Second brother, what do you think we should report directly to His Majesty that King Nan is rebellious?
In this way, we can directly eliminate the suspicion that we have submitted to the Southern King."
When the housekeeper heard what Sheriff Xiao said, he was immediately shocked: "My lord, you must not do this. This is absolutely not possible!"
"Why?" Sheriff Xiao frowned. He didn't expect the butler's reaction to be so big!
"First, Your Excellency, you don't have any evidence, but you are exposing King Nan.
Second, King Nan has too much power, and he will not let you go after learning that your Excellency has exposed him!" The housekeeper directly spoke out, exposing the key points of King Nan.
"Then how about we just pretend that we haven't been won over by him?" Sheriff Xiao heard the butler's words and asked tentatively again.
"If you want to show that you are not being won over, you should not see Liu Ji from the very beginning.
At the very least, you shouldn't be so blatant when you meet Liu Ji." The housekeeper said!
"Humph, then you didn't tell me earlier? What's the point of saying it now!" Sheriff Xiao complained angrily.
When the housekeeper heard what Commander Xiao said, he was also very puzzled.
I thought to myself, am I not going out to observe the movements of the major forces for you?
Who would have thought that I had just gone out for a while and you had already seen all the people, and now it's all my fault.
Fortunately, he also knew the character of Commander Xiao, so he quickly said: "Sir, please calm down. We can only confirm our choice now and get the attention of King Nan. Maybe the situation is not as bad as we think!"
"What do you mean?" Sheriff Xiao raised his head and looked at the housekeeper.
"Actually, my subordinates have also been thinking about it these years, what kind of skills does the princess have that can fight against King Nan!
To this day, my subordinates still feel that King Nan has a good chance of winning!
I believe that as long as most county guards choose King Nan, the princess's winning rate will be even slimmer!" the housekeeper analyzed.
You know, a few years ago, when the current emperor announced that the next emperor would be the princess, not King Nan, he knew that King Nan would rebel sooner or later.
So he has been observing changes in the situation!
He wanted to make a decision at the most appropriate time, create a brilliant path for Sheriff Xiao, and take Sheriff Xiao's status to a higher level!
But who knows, man’s calculation is not as good as God’s calculation!
He went out for a while, and Sheriff Xiao had already made his decision.
The current situation is very embarrassing. If they want to expose King Nan, they don't have the slightest evidence!
But after King Nan failed, King Nan wanted to bite them, and it was difficult for Sheriff Xiao to get away just by meeting Liu Ji!
Even if you can escape by then, you will always be labeled as someone who is trying to rebel, and the road ahead will be very difficult.
So now there is only one way before them.
That is, since you have chosen to follow King Nan, you have to go all the way to the dark side.
If King Nan succeeds, the harvest will naturally be huge.
"Then what should we do now?" Sheriff Xiao looked at the housekeeper eagerly.
"Sir, the matter has come to this, we can only fight hard. If we want to play, let's play big!
We must deepen your importance in the heart of Nan Wang and make him one of the important figures in Nan Wang's heart.
Rather than a dispensable county guard!"
"What should I do? Can I become important in King Nan's heart?"
When Sheriff Xiao heard the butler's words, he seemed to grasp a glimmer of hope.
But when I think about myself becoming important in King Nan's heart, it is undoubtedly difficult.
He had not had much contact with King Nan before. Although he wanted to curry favor with King Nan, he did not dare because of the imperial court.
So, now that he has reached this point, it is undoubtedly difficult for him to become Nanwang's confidant!
Of the seventy-two county guards in the Da Qi Dynasty, except for the first ten, the weight of their words was obviously much lighter.
"Isn't Liu Ji trying to win over the major county guards now?
He is obviously too busy. What you have to do now is to win over more county guards before Liu Ji and lead them to join the Southern King.
In this way, your Excellency will naturally become more important in King Nan's heart." The steward directly expressed his thoughts.
"Wonderful, why didn't I think of that!" Sheriff Xiao heard the butler's words and praised with a smile.
"And the most important point is that no matter how much it costs, sir, you must tie those county guards to your warship, so that your status will be self-evident!" the steward continued.
"I understand this!" Sheriff Xiao nodded directly.
After all, he is a county guard and is indeed worthless in front of King Nan.
But if he is supported by ten or eight county guards, or even more, then his value can be imagined.
"The housekeeper saw Sheriff Xiao's excited expression and couldn't help but persuade him: "Sir, you have to think that if you do this, you will be benevolent if you don't succeed, and there will be no turning back!"
"The matter has come to this, we can only give it a try!" Sheriff Xiao replied.
Because he seemed to have seen a bright road in front of him!
As long as he succeeds, Jiu Fei will have no arrogance in front of them!
He is also a very important figure in the entire Da Qi Dynasty!
The more he thought about this, the more excited Governor Xiao became.
What the hell, Sheriff Li.
He seemed to have seen Sheriff Li and Jiu Fei kneeling at his feet and trembling.
Seeing Governor Xiao's excited expression, the housekeeper originally wanted to say something, but in the end, when the words came to his lips, he swallowed them back.
He had no other choice. He could only support Governor Xiao and try his best to choose the best path for him.
"Second brother, please come with me!" At this moment, Sheriff Xiao could no longer contain his excitement and stood up directly and said.
