Chapter 213 Just Getting Involved
"Come on, Master of Ceremonies Song, just as you guessed, these two princes are definitely going to start a fight."
"Should we do something now, or sit back and watch the fight unfold?" Xiao Huaijin said, personally pouring Song Zhimin a cup of tea.
Song Zhimian's mind was racing at that moment.
She naturally took the teacup from Xiao Huaijin and began to drink.
Wei Yanli, who had been following Xiao Huaijin, looked at the two of them with some surprise.
When did they become so close? And when did Xiao Huaijin start serving people?
He has never poured himself a cup of tea...
Xiao Huaijin also noticed Wei Yanli's surprised expression.
"What's wrong? You're thirsty too? Go get some yourself! Don't you have hands?" Xiao Huaijin looked at Wei Yanli with annoyance.
Wei Yanli...
In the end, he was wrong. After following Xiao Huaijin around for so many years, he couldn't even get a cup of tea.
Wei Yanli sighed, poured himself a cup of tea, and carefully drank it.
Princess Yongxin also wrote to ask him to take good care of Song Zhimian.
Now Song Zhimian doesn't need to be taken care of at all, okay?
Song Zhimian didn't care what Wei Yanli was thinking. What she was thinking was that Ruan Xingzhi had already started to sow discord between the two princes so quickly, so he must know that he wouldn't be able to stay in Biao Kingdom for long.
You never know when you'll wake up one day and your head will be completely disassembled.
"No rush, this is the time to get excited."
Sigh, I'm thinking, Ruan Xingzhi is really bold!
We never expected that the Biao Kingdom would give us Shijie City, but Ruan Xingzhi thought of it for us. He actually persuaded the Second Prince to give Shijie City to Dayu.
Then, by using the incident in Shijie City, they would make the eldest prince and the second prince suffer a major setback.
He's making such a big fuss, it wouldn't be right for us not to lend a hand!
"Now... let's give them a good boost!" Song Zhimian said excitedly.
"Add fuel to the fire? Is that appropriate? Firewood is quite expensive!" Xiao Huaijin laughed.
"Of course it's suitable!"
Ruan Xingzhi did this simply to intensify the hatred of the Biao people towards Dayu.
That way, when the third prince ascends the throne, he can command widespread support and get the people's approval no matter what he does.
As long as Biao Kingdom goes to war with Dayu with all its might, Ruan Xingzhi's goal will be achieved.
At that time, the southwest was once again plunged into war. If Ruan Xingzhi had gone to the north to stir things up again, he might have made the north restless as well!
That Ruan Xingzhi... he's really vicious!
Therefore, at this point, we need to add fuel to the fire so that Ruan Xingzhi's plan can proceed more smoothly.
This is the best time to fan the flames. Add more firewood until the fire is blazing and burning brightly. When the flames are so intense that you can't control them, that's when you should make your move.
Think about it, the people were originally full of enthusiasm and wanted to give everything for Biao Kingdom and Shijie City.
In the end, however, things turned out to be different from what he had imagined.
The events in Shijie City were merely a power struggle between two princes vying for the throne.
They... are just a group of people who can be sacrificed at any time.
Their previous enthusiasm and indignation were merely wishful thinking on their part.
"Your Highness, what do you think if it were ordinary people from your country?" Song Zhimian looked at Xiao Huaijin with a smile.
"Heaven and earth are ruthless, treating all things like straw dogs!" Xiao Huaijin said calmly.
"Yes! That's exactly what I mean! The common people think they are doing what's best for the country and its people, but their royal family doesn't care about them at all."
If someone with some influence were to lead a disturbance at this time...
In addition, the Biao Kingdom was originally composed of a group of small villages and foreign tribes.
If everyone starts making a fuss, and someone else is supporting them from behind, then it'll really get interesting.
Back then... the emperor of Biao Kingdom wanted to go to war with Dayu? He could only dream about it!
He's too busy taking care of himself!
If the country falls into chaos, the Southwest Army can just watch the show from here.
Take over any available land first. As long as it's not arson, murder, or looting, the local people will soon behave themselves.
It's fine to just watch them fight it out in places we can't occupy.
Whoever becomes stronger, the Southwest Army will simply help their opponent.
In short, the goal is to make the forces in these conflicting areas relatively evenly matched, so that the fighting can be evenly matched.
Only when they are in chaos can the Great Yu region find peace.
As for Ruan Xingzhi... can he still stay in Biao Kingdom? Song Zhimian sneered.
Xiao Huaijin hummed in agreement. This seemed like a pretty good idea. He could watch others fight from the sidelines and lend a hand to anyone who was losing.
The main thing is to have something interesting to watch every day...
This can be considered as stabilizing the southwest, completely eliminating the threat posed by the Biao Kingdom to the southwest!
It's just... not very satisfying!
"Alright, then let's wait and see what happens! Sigh, it'll just take a while!"
"Song Zhimian, when do you think they'll start making a scene?" Xiao Huaijin sighed.
"when……
The second prince first had to write a letter to the emperor in Mandalay, saying that Dayu was making exorbitant demands. Then, the emperor was furious, but dared not leak the news.
Perhaps at this point, they were still thinking about getting things done through negotiations.
After all, if Dayu really were to attack Biao Kingdom, the emperor of Biao Kingdom would certainly lose his throne.
For the sake of his own position, the emperor of Biao Kingdom still hoped to reach an agreement.
At this point, Shijie City became a symbol of the sincerity of the Biao Kingdom.
Once the sincerity is obtained, the people of the country will be outraged at losing their largest production area, and at that time the second prince will become the sinner.
This was also the time when the two princes of the Biao Kingdom fought a major battle.
I'd guess... it should be around the time the Second Prince and the Great Yu peace talks end!
Therefore, Your Highness, whether this matter can be resolved quickly depends on the outcome of the peace talks between Dayu and Biao.
"When will Shijie City be in our hands, Dayu?" Song Zhimian asked Xiao Huaijin.
Xiao Huaijin understood and immediately glanced at Wei Yanli beside him.
"Yanli, the rest is up to you."
Your people need to keep an eye on that second prince.
"Also, tell your man that as long as he gets this done, we will help him fulfill his forty-year-old wish," Xiao Huaijin said with a smile.
Wei Yanli, who had been holding his teacup in silence the whole time...
Okay, you've talked for so long, but in the end, you still have to do everything yourself.
"Alright! I'll go to Shijie City tomorrow," Wei Yanli said helplessly.
Xiao Huaijin realized what was going on when he heard Wei Yanli's tone sound a bit sulky.
Wei Yanli was quite tired after running around outside all day.
"No rush, you don't need to go tomorrow!" Xiao Huaijin said with concern.
Wei Yanli finally felt a little better. Thankfully, this guy still had some conscience after all...
"Take a day off tomorrow, take care of the affairs of Sun City Spring Never Ends, and go the day after tomorrow! There's still time!" Xiao Huaijin continued.
Wei Yanli...
