Hearing this, Zhu Feng also laughed.

He said, "This matter is indeed impossible to hide from His Majesty."

Monk's eyes flashed, and a faint smile curled up at the corner of his mouth, which made the light in his eyes deeper. He said calmly: "I think that your Majesty has never thought of hiding it from me."

Otherwise, with Zhu Feng's scheming and conciseness, it would be impossible to expose his words.

"certainly."

Zhu Feng actually admitted it like this and said frankly: "Since we want to cooperate, I think at least the least thing is to be honest with each other."

“…”

"I came here this time to tell Your Majesty that when I was in Handongwei, the King of Nanli of your country had found me more than once. I think Your Majesty should be very clear about his purpose."

A cold light flashed in Monk's eyes.

Of course he knew.

Even if you don't know, you can guess it.

The only thing he couldn't guess was

"When I discussed with the Imperial Concubine, I proposed to use Baihu City as the price of cooperation; but I don't know what conditions should my unfaithful and unrighteous minister use to exchange for your country's help."

Zhu Feng smiled and spit out three words.

"The Great Wall Moat."

When Munch heard this, his face suddenly sank.

He also guessed this.

In other words, the Great Wall Moat was originally his weakness, and now the facts are right in front of him. Arislan really wants to expose his weakness in exchange for this victory in the battle with him.

But Arislan ignored it at all. Even if the two of them fought, he did win, but if the Great Wall Moat was divided to Yan Kingdom, how much loss would it be for the entire country.

Without the Great Wall Mound, they could no longer send troops to the south as they did in the past. They needed to break through the Great Wall first. The Great Wall has been the barrier of the Central Plains dynasty to the northern nomadic peoples since ancient times.

With this extra segment barrier, they are completely passive in the confrontation.

hateful!

A little gloomy appeared on his face.

This was also the first time in the years that Nan Yan had known him, from this emperor who had always been in his hands, who seemed to have everything in his control.

However, she was not completely relieved.

Monk wants to give it to White Tiger City, and Arislan wants to give it to the Great Wall.

It is naturally clear which one of the two sides’ interests is more important. Zhu Feng’s current approach is to seek profits from both sides. As he said, winning is in danger, but this "risk" is really too dangerous.

If you are not careful, it may cause war.

She didn't dare to talk much, but just sat quietly beside Zhu Feng.

Monk's hand under the table clenched his fists hard, and his sharp nails pierced his palms. The tingling sensation made him calm down a little.

He looked up at Zhu Feng again and took a deep breath.

No matter what, even if there are weaknesses, they cannot be easily shown to anyone.

He smiled again and said, "I understand."

“…”

"So, the White Tiger City I gave seems to be nothing more than Err."

“…”

"I don't know why Your Majesty agreed to my request for cooperation."

Zhu Feng smiled and said, "Your Majesty has a far-sighted vision, and even then he had a complete plan. Do you really don't understand my intention?"

“…”

"Let me say so, if the Great Wall Mound is really that important, then what is I?"

As soon as these words came out, Monk's face darkened again.

Indeed, everyone knows that the importance of the Great Wall Mound to Yan State is also because of the need to leave this thorn. When Emperor Gao of Yan State expelled the power of the country from the territory of Yan State, the country fought to the death and left the sphere of influence of the Great Wall Mound.

However, the Yan State has Zhu Feng.

This former King of Yan, who had been guarding Beiping for more than ten years, has led to the fact that none of the national cavalry went south.

So, when he asked this, it was like slapping the Chinese people in the face.

In the face of absolute power, any conspiracy seems pale and powerless. The Yan Kingdom has him, and even if the Great Wall Mound is not in its hands, the border can be peaceful.

Therefore, the Great Wall Moat was not that important to him.

Is this true?

Monk still had a trace of doubt in his heart, but he did not put this doubt on his face, and only smiled and said, "I have heard of His Majesty's wisdom and martial arts for a long time."

“…”

"So, let's talk about White Tiger City."

“…”

"According to Your Majesty, White Tiger City is more important to you than the Great Wall Mound?"

Zhu Feng smiled and said, "Your Majesty lives in Kulun City, I don't know if you know what happened in the northwest."

Monk's eyelashes tilted slightly.

He said: "What you are talking about is the Western Regions?"

Zhu Feng laughed and said, "It seems that Your Majesty is also very clear-headed. Although he lives in Kulun City, he is not ignorant of what happened thousands of miles away."

“…”

"Yes, I have sent someone to re-travel the westward path. In the future, I will strengthen my ties with the countries in the Western Regions. Of course, this kind of connection is just a trade connection."

Monk smiled faintly, not saying anything.

Although he is not old, he is still very clear about what happened back then.

The founding emperor of Yan State completely wiped out the troops of the Central Plains because he used the forces of the Western Regions and jointly attacked them. Of course, he could not figure it out later and closed the country's borders and cut off contacts with the Western Regions.

After suffering losses from both sides, the country is naturally happy to see it, and has set up many obstacles in the middle.

This time, Zhu Feng sent people to go west again and focused on the word "commerce". He was afraid that he would doubt it, so he wanted to contact the troops of the Western Regions and what to do to the country.

Monk only secretly wrote down this conclusion in his heart.

Then he said, "I naturally understand. Your Majesty sent most of the caravans, carrying so many silk and porcelain, I am afraid that these things will make people from the Western Regions ecstatic."

He also knows this.

Zhu Feng remained silent and sighed softly in his heart.

Both sides are so cunning.

He continued, "So, the Western Regions and the journey to the west have a great significance to me. I am more determined to regain a major town on this road."

Monk's eyes flashed.

"White Dragon City?"

Zhu Feng looked up at him and said with a smile: "If there was no wine here, I would really drink three hundred cups of wine with Your Majesty to repay my confidant."

Monk also smiled and said, "When our cooperation is reached, why worry about no wine."

Zhu Feng said: "Okay."

He continued, "Since Your Majesty also knows the significance of White Tiger City to me."

“…”

Monk stopped talking.

There is no need to say anything more when it comes to this point.

His eyes flashed and thought for a while, then raised his head to look at Zhu Feng: "Then, your Majesty, tell me what your conditions are."
