Chapter 260: King Liang

Bai Ze is directly under the jurisdiction of the emperor and does not belong to any party. Therefore, it is mostly used as a place where the princes meet.

At this time, Cai Yan couldn't help asking: "Then... I don't know what your highness intends to be, and whether he should be invited by my king."

In King Liang's letter to the country, he did not say why Xiao Yuan was invited, but just asked him for a while. But when he thought about Guangling, Xiao Yuan could understand it when he came to Huan Jin.

King Liang, is this to strengthen his confidence!

He glanced at Cai Yan and said deliberately: "Since King Liang invited me, I also asked the envoy to explain the reason."

Cai Yan thought for a moment and said, "My country and Qin have reached a friendly alliance. Now, considering that the Qin State has been newly established, my king specially invited the Qin State to accompany the kings for a while, so that the world can know the name of Qin."

He spoke nonsense, completely gigging on Liangguo's face. When Xiao Yuan heard this, he smiled again and said with a smile: "Qin State, there is no need to use any reason, the world will admit it."

As he said that, he said again: "The messenger will tell you the truth."

"This..." Unexpectedly, the King of Qin was so direct and had a lot of pressure in his words. Cai Yan was an eloquent person, but at this time, he had some words.

Seeing him like this, Xiao Yuan said for him: "When the Guangling incident, King Jin was so angry that he invited King Huan to attack Liang. King Liang had no choice but to let the envoy enter Qin?"

"Haha." Hearing this, Cai Yan laughed dryly and said again: "Since your highness is saying this, then I will humiliate myself if I say nothing. I just don't know if Qin is willing to help Liang. If Your Highness is willing to come forward to attend the meeting this time, our country will surely remember the kindness."

Now that I have already started talking, Xiao Yuan first pondered for a moment, and then said, "In this way, I will still need to consider this matter. The envoy can go to the inn to rest first. I will give you a reply tomorrow. How about it?"

"This, okay." Knowing that the King of Qin might be discussing with the ministers, Cai Yan could only say, "I'll leave first and wait for your good news."

After leaving, the ministers in the hall immediately began to whisper, and people were talking, and the scene became a little buzzing.

Xiao Yuan frowned slightly, picked up the bamboo slips on the Wang table, and put them down heavily.

This action made the ministers quiet instantly, and then quickly stood on the train. Then, Shangguan Wenruo said:

"The king, the king of Liang's intention is already very obvious. King Jin wants to win over Huan Kingdom, while King Liang wants to win over our country and form a two-on-two situation. If the king is invited to Baize, the four kings will meet together at that time, and the scene will probably be beyond the control of now."

As soon as he finished speaking, Yan Ming, the Minister of Rites, stood up and said, "Yes, if you attend the meeting, it will show that our country stands with Liang Kingdom. Is this too hasty for diplomatic relations?"

Another minister said: "If you don't accept the invitation, it will undoubtedly be a shame for King Liang. I'm afraid you will be resentful to Liang Kingdom."

"Yes, this is a dilemma..."

Listening to what the ministers said, Xiao Yuan looked at Liu Yuzhi: "What do the Prime Minister think?"

When Liu Yuzhi heard this, he stood up and pondered: "I think that for Qin, whether it is Huan and Jin or Liang, they are potential enemies. The current problem is to consider the pros and cons."

As he said that, he said again: "If my king attends the meeting, the advantage will be to give Liang's confidence, and the disadvantage will be to offend Jin. If Huan's side, you can ignore it."

"What the Prime Minister said is extremely true. I am just worried about this." After hearing this, Xiao Yuan immediately said:

"You all can think about it, what would happen if I rejected King Liang's invitation."

"First, there is no doubt that it will be hated by Liang Kingdom. From then on, diplomatic relations with Liang may be difficult to develop."

"The second and most critical point is that he was suppressed by Huan Jin. King Liang saw that Qin was indifferent, so he was afraid that he would not dare to fight hard."

"This is not what I want to see. What I want to see is the battle between Jin and Liang. Only when they fight together can Qin take the opportunity to go east."

"So, instead of rejecting King Liang, it is better to agree to attend the meeting. On the surface, for the alliance of Liang Kingdom, let King Liang dare to fight this battle with Jin Kingdom."

"I don't want to see a peaceful solution in Guangling. Let them attack. Yu Qin is the most advantageous."

Xiao Yuan understood his meaning very clearly, just to take advantage of Bai Ze's incident and tell King Liang, don't return Guangling, just fight with Jin, and Qin will be in alliance with you!

After hearing what he said, the ministers couldn't help but look at each other. Then, Shangguan Wenruo said, "The king is wise, if we talk about this, our country should indeed participate in this Bai Ze meeting."

"Okay." Xiao Yuan said, "That king, let me go to Baize and meet the monarch of the Three Kingdoms."

After discussing with the ministers, he decided to agree to King Liang's invitation, and on the morning of the next day, he also gave Cai Yan a satisfactory reply.

After hearing this, the latter was happy and thought that he would have to spend more time today, but he didn't expect that the King of Qin would agree so readily. In surprise, he also said goodbye and hurried back to Liang Kingdom to report to Liang King.

Cai Yan was very happy that things went so smoothly. After he came back, he met King Liang in the study of the palace and said excitedly: "King, King Qin has agreed!"

"Oh? The King of Qin did not mention the matter about Guangling?" King Liang couldn't help asking.

"It's mentioned." Cai Yan was still excited: "But the King of Qin is willing to join our country. This matter has been finalized, King."

"Okay!" After getting his reconfirmation, King Liang was very happy and couldn't help but say: "This time, when the King of Qin was present, no matter what Huan Jin said, don't want to go back to Guangling!"

His confidence increased greatly, and as soon as he finished speaking, he immediately pointed at Cai Yan: "Go! Send a lot of detailed works to closely investigate the time of the King of Qin."

"Ah?" Cai Yan didn't react a little, "The king means..."

"Assassinate him with a dead soldier." King Liang said coldly.

"What!?" Hearing this, Cai Yan was shocked. You know, he had just been ordered to go to Qin State. The King of Qin agreed to attend the meeting. He was clearly helping his country, but now he wanted to assassinate others!

He was a little confused and stuttered: "Big... King, but I heard it wrong..."

"Your ears are very good!" King Liang sneered: "The King of Qin is the king of a country. If he sends dead soldiers to assassinate him, he will definitely not succeed, but the dead soldiers can't stand the torture. He insisted that he was sent by Jin State, and King of Jin is even more suspicious, right?"

Hearing this, Cai Yan understood that he was going to assassinate the King of Qin and blame Jin.

Such a king, the cold sweat on his forehead was slowly flowing out without realizing it.

King Liang ignored him and continued, "If this happens, the King of Qin will inevitably be furious. It is very likely that Qin and Jin will take the lead in fighting the army. For Liang Kingdom, haha."

"Yes, yes... I understand."
