Even though he was talking about a really serious issue at the moment, Guan Yubai still had a warm expression on his face. He poured himself a cup of tea before continuing unhurriedly: "Actually, Tuoba Ren knows very well that once he really hits Feixia Mountain Edong, then the entire front line will be stretched, and neither the Xirong's troops nor the food and grass can keep up. If he is not careful, his army may even be trapped in the Central Plains and become a turtle in the urn. Now the court only sees that the Xirong army is invincible. , unstoppable, but I don't know that the people in Xirong may not be of one mind."

Guan Yubai did not show the vigor of fighting on the battlefield for many years, and his every move was elegant and calm, "Different from the Nanman that A Yi is familiar with, this Xirong is composed of twelve small clans, more than 30 years old. Before, the current King Xirong defeated eleven other neighboring tribes, unified the twelve tribes, and proclaimed himself the King of Western Nights."

He took a sip of tea and said lightly: "In the early years, King Xiye was young and vigorous, and he was strong and strong. Naturally, he could suppress all the tribes, but now King Xiye is very old. His three sons It was the prime of life, and everyone was eyeing the position of King Xiye, and all the tribes were ready to move. At this time, various forces in Xirong were stalemate, and all parties were cautiously watching. No one was afraid that if troops were sent to help Tuoba Ren, they would encounter If there is a fire in the rear, it is a small loss, and it is too late to regret it!"

Xiao Yi was thoughtful, although he was not familiar with Xirong, but from Zhiwei's point of view, he was indeed far inferior to Guan Yubai.

"If my guess is correct," Guan Yubai pressed his fingers lightly on the table, and pondered, "This peace negotiation is the best outcome that Tuoba Ren expected in his heart, and the various forces in Xirong are also eager to negotiate a peace, let alone I, Dayu, took the initiative to ask for peace, and Xirong naturally hoped to take the opportunity to seek the best benefits. In fact, to Xirong, it doesn't matter who is going to make peace, the important thing is who can bring them benefits."

Therefore, as soon as Concubine Zhang and the third prince offered to exchange weapons smelting technology, the envoys of Xirong immediately asked the emperor to marry Princess Yaoguang.

It doesn't matter if it's a princess or princess, anyway, it's just a woman, if you take it back and throw it into the harem, even she can't turn the world upside down.But exchanging a woman for the smelting map is so worth it!

Xiao Yi narrowed his eyes slightly, exuding awe-inspiring murderous intent.

What is still unclear is why Concubine Zhang's mother and son chose a stinky girl as a substitute.

Guan Yu raised his white eyebrows slightly, interrupting his thoughts and said: "A Yi, although the emperor has already rejected the envoys of Xirong, but in order to obtain the smelting map, the envoys of Xirong may not stop here... But no matter what happens , you just need to remember, don’t be impatient, and don’t mess with your own pace!” The corners of his lips slightly raised, and he said meaningfully, “It’s actually the easiest to deal with people who only value interests. Just think about it."

Xiao Yi didn't hide his hostility at all, but he nodded calmly and said, "I know. Xiaobai... I won't act rashly. No, when it comes to benefits... Maybe I can let go of my breath first, and then let me They didn't dare to hit her mind."

Guan Yubai's eyes flickered slightly, and he immediately understood Xiao Yi's intentions.

Xiao Yi stood up, waved his hand casually and said, "I'll go first, Xiaobai. I'll come to drink tea with you next time."

Xiao Yi came out through the window naturally, and then, a secret door in the study opened automatically, and a man in black robe came out from inside. His long black hair was only loosely tied with a black ribbon. Very casual.

He stared at Guan Yubai very puzzled, but his tone was extremely sharp: "Yubai, since you have a heart, why don't you go for it?" He seemed casual, but there was a sigh hidden in his heart. In the end, Guan Yubai seemed to be a completely different person, losing the ambition and vitality he once had.Now he seems to be only living for the dead souls of the officials.
