Liu Li looked at Xing Bang's expression. Seeing that he looked serious and didn't seem to be joking, he felt more confident and thought that what he thought was probably correct.
I, as a romantic son-in-law, must have been bewitched by the enchantress Wu Meir. I was a little dizzy at that time.
Therefore, the self-righteous Liu Li could somewhat empathize with the situation.
Then, Liu Li coughed lightly and said, "My dear son-in-law, we can use Wu Meir's influence to take over Yeqin in one fell swoop."
"But we must be on guard, and we must not easily believe any conditions she says."
"The land of Yeqin can only be ruled by us, the people of Dayao!"
After he finished speaking, he looked at Xing Bang with a calm face, as if he was speaking from the bottom of his heart without any selfish motives.
The King of Zhenbei is not a fool. He still has some scheming, especially when it comes to matters involving his own interests.
Xing Bang secretly curled his lips in his heart. It was exactly as he expected. The old man wanted to hand Ye Qin over to him.
However, Xing Bang didn't want to expose him in person, so he had to give him some sweet treats at this time so that he would have more expectations.
The soldiers of the three armies have all made such a great promise, so as the King of Zhenbei, he naturally cannot treat them badly!
What's more, although Liu Li was not a good commander, these 200,000 troops were all his own soldiers.
If Liu Li had any complaints in his heart, it would shake the morale of the army.
The Zhenbei Army is not just about defeating Ye Qin, it will be of great use later.
To put it bluntly, Xing Bang still needs to be careful with Liu Li and just try to coax him first, since he has already fooled him twice anyway.
In addition, he was not aware of the matter of letting Qin Bingyan inherit the throne of Ye Qin, including Xing Bang's subsequent series of plans.
Thinking of this, Xing Bang nodded and said, "Father-in-law, what you said makes sense!"
"It's just that I haven't considered this matter yet. Since my father-in-law said so, I guess you already have a candidate in mind?"
Hearing this, Liu Li straightened his face and said calmly: "Although I haven't had time to think about this matter carefully, it's not difficult to think of the candidate."
"Who among us nowadays can be a good son-in-law suitable for you?"
It sounds reasonable and there is no selfish motive at all!
However, anyone with a discerning eye can see that Xing Bang is unlikely to be tied down by Ye Qin anymore.
Moreover, Liu Li understood one thing more clearly in his heart: even if Liu Hui no longer held most of the country in his hands, he would never be the emperor in the capital of Ye Qin.
If this happens, we won't be able to explain to the people of the world, as the two countries are allies.
Dayao sent troops only to help its allies restore their country, but in the end you occupied their capital. How come?
Not to mention that the subjects of Ye Qin would not agree, even the people of Dayao would lose confidence.
Neither Xing Bang nor Liu Hui are suitable, so who else is the most qualified?
It can only be him, King Zhenbei Liu Li.
Of course, he would never say his little plan openly, but in fact he was secretly trying to trick Xing Bang.
Putting aside other things, you asked my Zhenbei Army to leave Yanjing and occupy Yeqin. After we conquered it, it would be unreasonable for you not to take charge and hand it over to me, right?
This is what Liu Li planned.
However, Xing Bang would not give him this opportunity, and he would also make him convinced.
Xing Bang smiled slightly, "Father-in-law is father-in-law. At the critical moment, he can really help the country!"
"To be honest, I will not hide it from you. Before I came here, I discussed the issue of Yeqin with His Majesty and the two Queen Mothers. His Majesty and the two Queen Mothers both wanted to grant the land of Yeqin to me as a fiefdom."
Just pour it from left hand to right hand!
Liu Li naturally didn't know that everything was decided by him, the regent.
Hearing this, Liu Li's heart skipped a beat, but then he thought, it seemed that he didn't agree by saying this, and his heart instantly calmed down.
Xing Bang was right. Liu Li really wanted to return to the northern border and continue to be the King of Zhenbei.
However, this is obviously unrealistic at the moment because the imperial court is currently in Yanjing City.
The imperial court naturally would not stay in Yanjing City forever, but it was unclear when they would be able to launch a counterattack.
The important thing is that it may not be achieved!
If the fight lasts for a few years, no matter who wins or loses, he will occupy the land of Yeqin and become a local lord, and no one can easily touch him.
Even if he was allowed to go back, he would not go back, as he might even lose his military power.
Liu Li thought very shrewdly about these things.
Xing Bang naturally wouldn't completely trust him, and he never felt completely confident in him from the beginning to the end.
Therefore, he had already figured it out in his mind that the best way was to split the Zhenbei Army and let Liu Li still guard the northern border, but it was Yeqin's northern border.
In this way, not only does it seem that there is no reason for people to think too much, but Liu Li is still under control as always.
Before, Xing Bang didn't take him seriously at all, not even his own army of 200,000. But now it's different. Even if he is used as cannon fodder, he must keep them firmly in his hands.
Fighting wars in the south and the north is not a matter of individual heroism, it requires the army to fight with real weapons.
Liu Li hesitated for a moment, secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and then asked, "So, does my dear son-in-law mean that you agree?"
"Originally, I was still thinking deeply about this matter. I thought I was not suitable, and I was considering asking my father-in-law to do it for me. You are the best choice."
Hearing this, Liu Li felt secretly delighted...
But the next second, he felt like crying.
Xing Bang then said, "But after hearing what my father-in-law said, I suddenly feel that I may have to take responsibility for this matter."
"Um?"
Liu Li frowned. He never expected that Xing Bang would agree. There was no reason for it.
However, he pretended to be calm and nodded, "Yes, if my son-in-law can become the king of Yeqin again, it is naturally what everyone wants, and no one can say anything."
As he spoke, Liu Li frowned and pondered for a moment, then said, "But dear son-in-law, I thought about it. You are the regent king, second only to the emperor and above all others."
"Your Majesty is young, and you have to make decisions on all the important matters of the court. Yeqin can only serve as our rear. Our Great Yao's kingdom cannot fall into the hands of Liu Cundao, the old and rebellious man..."
"I'm afraid no one can accomplish such an unparalleled feat except you, my dear son-in-law."
"Well, dear son-in-law, these words of mine are from the bottom of my heart. There is absolutely no selfish motive. As long as it is for the good of Dayao, I will have no complaints about not being the prince."
Good job!
Playing hard to get.
But you found the wrong person!
What's more, you are a man who can sell his children for profit, and even your loyal dog won't eat you.
Xing Bang nodded and said, "Father-in-law, you are too kind. We are a family and we don't have to talk behind each other's backs. Of course I believe in your loyalty."
"It's just that you may have misunderstood. What I meant was that I am the one who took on this responsibility!"
"It's just that the person who will rule Yeqin in the future is not me, but my son."
