Xu Shanxin nodded. He knew that what Yuchi Jiong was talking about was the exchange of equipment in the city. If the subsequent ones were cooperation, then this one should only be regarded as a transaction.
"As for the new agreement proposed by your country, I have to ask His Highness the King of Qi for instructions." Yuchi Jiong said immediately. Of course, he was not qualified to directly help Yu Wenxian make a decision, and naturally he did not dare to speak directly.
In front of Xu Shanxin, Yu Chijiong became more and more cautious. He was also afraid that Xu Shanxin would "taste" something from his words, and that he would intensify the publicity of the connection between Yu Chijiong and the big man.
Xu Shanxin nodded slightly, walked to the map, stretched out his hand and knocked: "In that case, I think our army will be able to enter these cities before the year. Of course, we will hand over the trebuchets and bed crossbows in two batches as agreed.
.”
"Okay." Yuchijiong nodded solemnly, and he breathed a sigh of relief. The words came out of his mouth, and they were already facts. Since Xu Shanxin represents Li Xingchen and the big man, it is naturally impossible for him to go back on his word. This can be regarded as Yu Wenxian's entrustment to Yuchi.
main tasks.
Watching Xu Shanxin leave, Yu Chijiong couldn't help but sigh: "It's really easy to invite gods but hard to send them away."
Li Hui, who was standing next to him, lowered his voice and said, "Old general, you have to be more careful now."
Yuchi Jiong nodded slightly. It can be imagined that after completing the first task, Xu Shanxin must have more "leisure and leisure" to complete the remaining tasks, which should include but is definitely not limited to driving a wedge between Yuchi Jiong and Yu Wenxian.
After contacting Xu Shanxin, Yu Chijiong has been able to basically conclude that this person is not that easy to deal with. Obviously he is better at hiding his true thoughts, so that Yu Chijiong can hardly see the meaning of the words Xu Shanxin said.
Somewhat true, some false.
What's more, this person never used Yuchi's family members to threaten or use them as bargaining chips to negotiate with Yuchi Jiong. He didn't even mention them at all, which made Yuchi Jiong feel uneasy. The fact is here, but the other party is not getting along.
You opened the window and spoke frankly, but you were obviously holding back the rest of your moves.
But with so many weaknesses in the hands of others, can the Yuchi family really be able to sustain it? And even if he has been through great storms and can endure some suspicions and suspicions, what about the rest of the people? After all, Yuchi Jiong cannot ask Yuchi Shun to have anything to do with him.
The other children of the Yuchi family all have the same mentality and way of thinking as him.
But Yuchijiong didn't know that when Xu Shanxin returned to his study, several young people had already strode over. The first one solemnly raised his hand: "See you, Mr. Xu!"
"Get ready to take action," Xu Shanxin said in a low voice, "Luoyang White Robe has also been lurking for a year. It's time for everyone to move around."
Several young people suddenly showed excited expressions. When they came here today, they knew they would have to work. Everyone has been waiting for this moment for a long time. Luoyang is located between the two forces of the Northern Zhou Dynasty, so it is naturally the focus of attention, and it is also the first place where the white robe will stay.
The place.
However, the young man in front still said worriedly: "But if we spread rumors directly like this, I'm afraid it won't have much effect. Judging from the intelligence we collected, Yu Wenxian still trusts Yu Chijiong very much...
"
After a pause, the young man spread his hands and asked, "Would this be counterproductive?"
Xu Shanxin waved his hand: "Three people make a tiger. No matter how much Yu Wenxian believes in Yu Chijun, don't forget that a person's unconditional trust has limits after all. And you should have received the news from Jiankang Mansion.
The virtuous concubine has given birth to a princess, and the mother and daughter are safe. This is what we can make a fuss about."
Several young people looked a little awe-inspiring. This was indeed something they had not considered before. They immediately handed over their hands at the same time: "We will be taught."
Xu Shanxin raised his eyebrows and looked at the young man leaving. He was young and energetic. This should be the biggest advantage of the big man, but it is also a disadvantage, because young people ultimately lack experience, especially how to deal with the world.
Dealing with a character like Yu Chijiong cannot be solved in one or two strokes or in one or two days. You have to take a long-term approach to catch big fish!

"Let's talk first, but we don't agree." Li Xingchen's mind was obviously not here.
Just now, Li Ping sent news that Yuchi Chifan gave birth to a daughter safely, and Li Xinchen finally had his first child after coming here. This made Li Xinchen feel like returning home. If he hadn't resolved the negotiation with Yang Jian, I'm afraid
Li Xingchen was already ready to hit the road at this time.
Yang Su and Yang Yue also had relaxed expressions. For the ministers, they worked for the emperor's family, so the issue of the emperor's heirs itself was something they had to worry about. Although Yuchi Chifan's son was not a prince,
At least it can prove that there is no problem with Li Xingchen's fertility.
Since you can give birth to a princess, you can naturally give birth to a prince, and if nothing else, doesn’t the queen also have one in her belly now?
What's more, this is not a bad thing. Throughout the ages, whether to have an eldest son or a legitimate son has been a controversial issue. Yuchi Chifan gave birth to a daughter, so he naturally avoided this problem cleverly. As long as the queen gave birth to a prince, everything would be fine.
.
"Which side does your Majesty plan to join forces with in the end?" Yang Yue said still a little worried, "At least I know the scale that should be controlled."
Li Xingchen laughed: "Both sides have to join forces, but neither side fully joins forces."
"this······"
Yang Su explained beside him: "We have to keep in touch with both sides, and we can even make some deals with them, but we cannot fully agree to the alliance plan we propose or the alliance plan they propose. After all, any of it is uncertain.
It will definitely not be in our interests."
Yang Yue reacted: "I am stupid."
"Okay, then don't keep our guests waiting for a long time. You can also show some sincerity and talk to them bit by bit," Li Xingchen said with a smile, "so that they don't understand how true this is.
A bit fake."
Watching Yang Yue leave, Yang Su couldn't help but frown: "But no matter what, Your Majesty has to find a way to identify a target for us to deal with. It's not a good thing if we keep wavering like this."
Li Xingchen nodded: "Now that things are happening in the northwest, I am going to return to Jiankang. This matter must be discussed and determined with the officials in Jiankang."
Yang Su nodded hurriedly. Of course, Li Xinchen could not determine this national policy just by talking to him. He needed to refer to the specific opinions of the three provinces, six ministries and the Taiwei Mansion.
Although Yang Su was sometimes arrogant, he also knew that he could not play an indispensable role in Li Xinchen's decision-making every time, otherwise he would inevitably become a powerful official and a sycophant in the eyes of others.
And Li Xingchen obviously wouldn't allow it.
The young emperor in front of him is much deeper than he appears. (To be continued)
