Chapter 716 Are you planning to refuse?
Zhong Li looked at Xiao Chiye: "Are you afraid that I will go to war with you?"
Xiao Chiye: "We have to be careful. Although we have cannons, we have sold all our food and fodder to you. If you turn against us, we will be in a very passive position."
Tsukuri knew their concerns. If it were him, he might not provide food and grass to the enemy at this time. "Since you don't believe me, I'm afraid you will find it hard to believe anything I say."
Xia Wanniang looked at Zhong Li and said, "When the king wrote to me before, he said that as long as you are alive, he will not go to war with Daxia. And as long as the tribe outside the Great Wall is still led by Queen Zhuoma's natal tribe, you will not move. Is this true?"
Zhong Li: "Of course it's true. If the ruler of Daxia hadn't married a woman from a tribe outside the Great Wall as his queen, it might not have been so easy for me to borrow the passage."
Xiao Chiye could tell that he was not joking. Just from the aura of the group of soldiers outside, it was clear that he had the ability.
Now Daxia is also training its troops, but it is still a little weaker than the Xiangguo, which has always had a strong military force.
Xia Wanniang didn't speak directly. Instead, she picked up a piece of cake and took a bite. It wasn't very sweet, but it melted in her mouth. "The cake tastes good."
Tsukasa pointed to a woman standing in the distance and said, "I think you are familiar with this person. She makes good pastries, so I stayed here."
Xia Wanniang looked in the direction of his finger, only to see Niwa standing in the team in the distance with a haggard look on her face, with her head lowered and not daring to look over here.
"The king is a man who is kind and gentle to women. Please tell me that you attacked the Kingdom of Jin to avenge her."
Zhong Li laughed: "Of course not, I'm not the kind of person who is sentimental. I don't have a heart."
Xiao Chiye looked at Zhong Li and said, "That's troublesome. We are also afraid of doing business with a heartless king like you."
The smile on Tsukuri's face faded, and he looked at the two of them: "So you plan to refuse?"
Xia Wanniang placed a bottle on the table and asked, "Does the king dare to take a gamble?"
Tsukuri reached for the medicine bottle on her desk and asked, "What is this?"
"It's a kind of poisonous insect. If you betray me, you may be eaten to death by the heart. But if you don't betray me, nothing will happen." After saying this, Xia Wanniang looked at him with a smile.
Tsukuri looked at the medicine bottle in his hand and said, "So as long as I take it, you will provide me with enough food and grass?"
Xia Wanniang spread her hands and said, "Of course, I'll still sell it to you at double the price. The other conditions remain the same."
Zhong Li looked at the medicine bottle in his hand and the two people who remained calm: "If something happens to me, you may not be able to return."
"I said, as long as the king doesn't betray the agreement, you will be fine. I can also give you a big gift package to heal your hidden injuries." After saying this, Xia Wanniang poured herself another cup of tea.
Tsukuri didn't say anything. His fingers stroked the smooth bottle, weighing the pros and cons: "You won't go to war with the Prime Minister either?"
Xiao Chiye: "Rather than going to war, I hope my soldiers can live, die of old age, get married and have children."
Zhong Li looked at Xiao Chiye and said, "What a great death! I hope you can keep your promise."
He opened the bottle and put the small pill inside into his mouth: "Now it should be okay!"
Xia Wanniang and Xiao Chiye were both stunned. In fact, they were just testing him and never thought that he would eat it.
Tsukasa narrowed his eyes and looked at the two of them: "Do you want to go back on your word?"
Xia Wanniang waved her hand: "We are just a little surprised by your choice."
Zhong Li looked at them and said, "Actually, I am also betting that you will not go to war with Xiangguo. If I lose the bet, then I deserve it. I don't know people well."
Xia Wanniang stretched out her hand towards him: "Although I don't want to admit it, I have to say that you are a courageous king. I don't know why you want to destroy the surrounding countries, but since you promised, we will do it."
Tsukuri didn't quite understand what she meant by extending her hand, but he still extended his hand: "Because they destroyed my mother's country and made my mother die of depression, so I have to make them pay the same price."
Xiao Chiye looked at Zhong Li and said, "So you never planned to go to war with Da Xia from the beginning to the end? You instigated the Seventh and Ninth Princes to rebel just because you wanted us to have internal strife. I won't interfere with your plan."
