"Only by knowing the gap can we know the direction of our efforts!" Yuan Zhao stood up, "Brother, just wait. I will send all those who have wronged you to be your companions and slaves! However, there is one more important thing that needs to be done right now!"
What to do? Yuan Zhao wants to personally persuade Dongyuan County to surrender! After seeing Anyang's strength and Anyang's development speed, Yuan Zhao finally made up his mind to persuade his father Yuan Yong to lead Dongyuan County to surrender directly to Anyang!
This was a decision Yuan Zhao made after thinking about it all night.
"There is the State of Jin in the south, Anyang in the north, and the sea is Anyang's territory! If Dongyuan County, sandwiched in the center, continues to resist, it will only be crushed into dust! Dongyuan County has only two ways to develop, either to join the State of Jin or to join Anyang. From the perspective of long-term development, and from the perspective of the Great Xia Kingdom, joining Anyang is the best strategy!"
"Let's go, we'll take a boat home!" Yuan Zhao and his followers set out on the road home. After Yuan Zhao promised not to interfere with the Northern Expedition of the Xiao Kingdom for the time being, Li Xian let Yuan Zhao go. Now, Yuan Zhao wants to go home and take a look.
…
Where is Li Xian? Li Xian is now frowning. Xia Qingqing pulled Li Xian and asked him to go to Pingxin Villa for breakfast. Now, Pingxin Villa not only has the former queen Xiao Yu, but also the eldest prince Xia Xu; and the second prince Xia Shu, who was invited by Li Xian to be a "guest", is also here.
The meeting between the eldest and second princes was also a meeting between a fake emperor and a hollow emperor. Just thinking about it makes people "chicken frozen". Unfortunately, Xia Qingqing knew Li Xian too well. She didn't even have breakfast and got up before Li Xian "went out for inspection". She held Li Xian's hand and refused to let go.
"Let's go, let's go. We are all family. Can we never see each other again?"
Li Xian looked around, but when Xu Ren and Li Yuanming saw Li Xian's eyes asking for help, they immediately turned around and left. Li Xian was so angry that he rolled his eyes. Finally, he was dragged into the car by Xia Qingqing and sent to Pingxin Villa.
During breakfast, Xiao Yu and Xia Qingqing were talking in the back hall, while Li Xian, Xia Xu, and Xia Shu were staring at each other. The food was cold, but the three of them were still staring blankly.
A rebel leader, a fake emperor, a figurehead emperor, this is really... wonderful.
Finally, it was the youngest, Li Xian, who was "magnanimous" and stood up to pour the wine, "I toast to my elder and second brothers."
The second prince Xia Shu was the most annoyed with Li Xian. He took the wine without hesitation and sneered, "It is a great honor to have Prince Anyang personally toast me."
"We are successful people, we are victorious people, we don't need to argue with these losers." Li Xian told himself this in his heart, and said, "Brother, I did do things a little... unkindly in the past. I apologize to you."
However, the second prince seemed to have given up hope, "Can someone be brought back to life by apologizing after killing someone?"
Damn it! Li Xian's anger exploded. You opened a dyeing factory when I gave you a little color? Well, since you want to quibble, I'll show you what pettiness is!
Li Xian's face quickly darkened. "Yes, if you kill someone, you must pay with your life. Apologies are hypocritical. When Anyang was just starting to develop, many messengers were killed. Have you heard about this, second brother?"
