"So, even though you have dealt with the Liao family now, even if you deal with the Qin and Chen families later and empty their rice shops, it is still only a temporary solution. The rice you get will be eaten up sooner or later. You can't keep helping these people for the rest of your life!"
Li Xiuning looked serious and continued to speak word by word, "If we want to completely solve the problem, we need some drastic measures!"
Chen Xuan saw a resolute spirit in her.
This surprised him. He thought Li Xiuning might have come up with some idea, so he asked, "What thundering method?"
Li Xiuning said seriously, "How can I allow others to snore beside my bed?"
"Now you have become a thorn in Zhang Tao's side! He wants to kill you all the time. As long as you are still alive, he won't be able to sleep peacefully at night!"
"I guess the reason why he didn't touch you now is because he's worried that he can't kill you in one go. If you run away and come back to take revenge on him, he will be even more sleepless!"
"Don't think that we are living a peaceful life now. In fact, there are undercurrents. Zhang Tao is definitely trying to find a way to kill you. Or, he has already started to act, but we don't know it yet!"
"so……"
Li Xiuning's eyes flashed with a cold light, and he said word by word, "Instead of waiting to die, why don't we take the initiative!"
Chen Xuan felt a flash of murderous intent from her.
"You mean, I should kill Zhang Tao now?"
Li Xiuning nodded.
Chen Xuan couldn't help but touch his chin and began to think.
It is actually not difficult to get rid of Zhang Tao. When he was still a first-level warrior, no one could stop him if he wanted to kill Zhang Tao.
What's more, he is now a third-level warrior.
However, there is actually not much significance in killing Zhang Tao.
Besides, no matter what, Zhang Tao was still an official appointed by the imperial court.
If he were killed, what would the governors of the other twenty-three cities think?
The rabbit will surely die and the fox will mourn.
At that time, we will jointly request the governor of the border state, the King of Zhenxi, to kill Chen Xuan!
The King of Zhenxi has a full 200,000 soldiers and horses at his disposal!
Among the twenty-four border cities, the Barbarian City has eight thousand soldiers and horses, which shows that Zhang Tao is still highly regarded by the King of Zhenxi!
If he is killed, King Zhenxi will definitely come after Chen Xuan for settlement.
By then, he won't be able to survive here!
Li Xiuning said calmly, "It doesn't matter whether Zhang Tao lives or dies. What I mean is to strike first and gain the upper hand. I mean, seize Zhang Tao's power and become the real master of Mancheng! Make the governor a mere figurehead!"
"Only when you become the true master of Barbarian City can you change the current situation where the people are living in dire straits!"
"If you want to turn Zhang Tao into a mere decoration, there is only one most suitable way!"
“That’s military power!”
"There are a total of 8,000 soldiers and horses in the Barbarian City. If you can use all these 8,000 men, then why worry about not accomplishing great things?"
Every word Li Xiuning said was sonorous and powerful!
As expected of a princess, she thinks a lot and sees far.
While other women were still thinking about how to spend the money given by Chen Xuan, Li Xiuning had already begun to think about what Chen Xuan's future path should be and how to maximize benefits!
To be honest, even Chen Xuan himself didn't think so much at the beginning.
He originally planned to train his own personal guards, that is, the 500 people he brought from Bandit Mountain, and then serve the women around him well to improve their favorability. When his favorability goes up, his strength will naturally go up.
As for Zhang Tao, as long as this kid doesn't provoke Chen Xuan, Chen Xuan is too lazy to deal with him.
But now, Li Xiuning's words were undoubtedly telling Chen Xuan not to lie down, but to take the initiative and fight for a better future!
"What you said makes sense, but it may not be that easy to control the 8,000 soldiers of the Barbarian City."
Chen Xuan muttered to himself.
Li Xiuning suddenly smiled and said, "If it were someone else, it might be difficult, but if it were you, it would be much easier!"
"Oh? What do you mean?" Chen Xuan was a little surprised. He felt that since Li Xiuning could say such a thing, it meant that she must have the answer in her heart.
"Ling Mo!"
Li Xiuning slowly uttered these two words.
"he?"
Ling Mo's face appeared in Chen Xuan's mind. Of course, it was not Ling Mo's cold and pretentious face, but his embarrassed face after being seriously injured by a kick.
After this guy was beaten by Chen Xuan, Chen Xuan hasn't seen him until now, and he doesn't know whether he is recuperating or doing something else.
"Yes!" Li Xiuning nodded, "He is the commander of these 8,000 elite soldiers. All 8,000 people are under his charge."
"Although on the surface, Ling Mo is under the jurisdiction of the governor of Mancheng, in fact, the one who can really control Ling Mo is the King of Zhenxi of your Dagan Dynasty!"
"As long as you can convince Ling Mo, then this Zhang Tao will be worthless. Even if he is the governor of Barbarian City, so what? You can easily deprive him of his power and make him your puppet! By then, you will be the true lord of Barbarian City!"
Hearing this, Chen Xuan was secretly surprised. He didn't expect Li Xiuning to think so far.
As expected of a princess, she is far-sighted.
But then again, living in a place like the royal family, it is normal to be exposed to all kinds of strategies since childhood and think more.
"If I ask others to do what I just said, it would be very difficult, but if I ask you to do it, the chances of success are very high!"
"I think Ling Mo is not an ordinary person. He is proud and arrogant. He will definitely not be willing to be the leader of a small barbarian city. You can easily defeat him, so he must be unwilling to accept it. You can take advantage of his unwillingness to accept it and control him step by step until he completely becomes your man!"
"That's all I have to say. As for what to do, it's up to you."
"But I want to remind you that women all admire strong men. Only strong men can make women feel safe."
"Now, the reason why the women around you don't leave you is because they see hope in you, so they squeeze into a small courtyard together without any complaints. If you slack off and let the women see no future, it won't be long before there will be fewer and fewer women in the courtyard."
Li Xiuning continued to speak calmly.
Chen Xuan understood the hidden meaning. A woman can live with you in a courtyard, but she can't live with you forever.
What it means is that they can endure hardships with you, but they can’t endure hardships with you forever. You have to let them see hope.
In order to keep them, Chen Xuan must pay more than others!
"Xiuning!"
Li Xiuning turned around and was about to leave when Chen Xuan suddenly called her.
"how?"
Li Xiuning spoke, she didn't know whether Chen Xuan had listened to all she had just said.
