"The King of Southwest is indeed a man of his word."
Outside the Chu family door.
Seeing Lin Bai come out, Zhou Yinglong said.
Lin Bai glanced at him and said with a smile: "Master Zhou gives me face, so naturally I will not make it difficult for Master Zhou."
Zhou Yinglong said: "The Southwest King is joking. His subordinate is only a small deputy commander. How can he be qualified to give the Southwest King face?"
His posture was very low.
Lin Bai gave him a slightly surprised look and said, "So, he is the second prince?"
Before entering the Chu family, the other party deliberately mentioned Gu Qianmo.
He also deliberately mentioned that the reason why he went to find Sun Changchun was because he was hinted by his mother and concubine, and then he was allowed to go. Obviously, the other party had something to say and showed favor to him.
I don't know what the purpose is.
Zhou Yinglong smiled and said: "Sure enough, nothing can be hidden from the Southwest King. The second prince asked his subordinate to say hello to the Southwest King on his behalf."
Lin Bai looked at him with calm eyes and said calmly: "The second prince is interested, and I understand."
With that said, he made a gesture to leave.
He knew the other party had something to say, so he asked needlessly and waited for the other party to speak.
as expected!
Seeing this, Zhou Yinglong said again: "Besides saying hello, the Second Prince also has something for me to convey to the King of Southwest."
Lin Bai said deliberately, "That's right! What's the matter?"
Zhou Yinglong said: "The second prince hopes to cooperate with the Southwest King."
"cooperate?"
Lin Bai glanced at him, pretending to be surprised and said: "Master Zhou, are you kidding me? Is there anything in this king that is worthy of the second prince's attention and would like to cooperate with?"
Zhou Yinglong smiled and said: "You are kidding, the Southwest King. The Southwest King is famous and prestigious. Who doesn't want the friendship of the Southwest King? The second prince has always been looking forward to cooperating with the Southwest King."
Lin Bai chuckled: "That's right! I thought he hated me to the core."
Zhou Yinglong said: "The King of Southwest is worrying too much. The King of Southwest and the young lady of the Chu family are both talented and beautiful. The second prince sincerely wishes them both good wishes. As for the Cui family, it was the eldest prince's fault and has nothing to do with the King of Southwest. Even if there was some small misunderstanding before, it is for everyone." Lord, no harm.”
This sentence is tantamount to abandoning all the rights and wrongs of the past.
You know, Gu Qianmo originally wanted to marry Chu Xiangyun in order to consolidate his strength.
It's a pity that it was snatched away by a great talent.
Not to mention the Cui family, which was uprooted. Of course, the main reason why the Cui family was uprooted was because they rebelled with the eldest prince, otherwise it wouldn't be the case.
To be precise, it was the great talent who pushed the Cui family into despair, and the Cui family was controlled by the eldest prince.
But now, Zhou Yinglong gave up everything with just one sentence.
Lin Bai couldn't help but be a little surprised.
He said: "The second prince has a broad mind, which is admirable. However, I wonder how the second prince wants to cooperate with me?"
Zhou Yinglong said: "It's very simple. The second prince hopes to gain the support of the Southwest King."
Lin Bai chuckled and said, "Sir Zhou, are you sure you are not joking? Even if I am a prince, I am still a prince from Southwest China. In this Wu Dynasty, even Lord Zhou is far behind. What's the use of getting my support?"
Zhou Yinglong grinned, "The King of Southwest really likes to joke. Although the King of Southwest is the prince of the southwest, he is also the consort of the Wu Dynasty and the uncle of the Chu family. He has the Shen family and the Chu family behind him. Even if he is a low-ranking official, he will not be able to catch up."
Lin Bai said: "Master Zhou thinks too highly of me. The Shen family may not listen to me, and the Chu family cannot protect itself."
Zhou Yinglong said: "The Southwest King will only be underestimated and never looked down upon. Although the Shen family supports the four princes, it is all because of the Southwest King. Even if the Southwest King cannot change their stance, they will definitely not oppose the Southwest King." .”
"The Second Prince doesn't need any extra support from them, he just needs them to remain neutral."
"Furthermore, once the second prince wins the throne, their benefits will also be indispensable."
A flash of surprise flashed in Lin Bai's eyes. From what he meant, it seemed that as long as the Shen family did not support Gu Qiankuang, Gu Qianmo would have absolute confidence.
He immediately said: "It seems that the second prince is confident."
"But, isn't there another sixth prince? It seems that he is even more popular."
Zhou Yinglong said in surprise: "Sixth Prince? Hasn't he made things difficult for the Southwest King many times? In this case, there is nothing to be afraid of."
Lin Bai:......
Good guy!
What does this mean? It’s difficult for yourself, so there’s nothing to be afraid of?
Why the hell can you stop bragging for me like this? I don’t even dare to say this myself.
Of course, he knew that this was just an excuse, and if the other party dared to say this, it meant that there was a way to deal with the Sixth Prince.
It seems that Gu Qianmo’s secrets are quite deep!
I didn’t feel it when I came to Wu Dynasty last time, but that’s right, we didn’t have much interaction last time. After the former queen’s incident, the other party was banned from participating in the whole thing, so...
Lin Bai made up his mind and said: "I accept the second prince's good intentions, but unfortunately, the Shen family is currently cooperating very well with the fourth prince. I am able to marry Princess Tianwu because of his contribution, and I have no interest in getting involved. He comes in, what’s more, I don’t see any benefit, so why bother?”
Zhou Yinglong said: "The king of Southwest said this wrongly."
"The reason why the fourth prince formed an alliance with Li Chao is not because he is optimistic about Li Chao. On the contrary, he has always looked down on Li Chao. The reason why he promoted the alliance is simply to gain the support of that group of people in the court."
"Moreover, the fourth prince is particularly wary of the Southwest King. When he first went to Li Dynasty as an envoy, he wanted to kill the Southwest King. The last time the Southwest King went to Wu Dynasty as an envoy, he also proposed to the late emperor to kill the Southwest King as soon as possible."
"The second prince is not the same. Although there are some misunderstandings between the two parties, the second prince still hopes to settle the past with the Southwest King."
Lin Bai narrowed his eyes slightly.
He had known for a long time that Gu Qiankuang wanted to kill him, as the science lady had said.
However, the last time he went on a mission to Wu Dynasty, this guy proposed to kill him, which he didn't know.
He tricked the other party from behind, and the other party also proposed to kill him. He was really smiling on the surface, but he was so mean behind his back.
From this point of view, both of them are the same.
"As for the benefits..."
Zhou Yinglong continued, "The Southwest King is rich all over the world, how can he look at foreign things? What he cares about most is his own relatives, such as his mother and concubine?"
"The Second Prince's sincerity will soon be seen by the Southwest King."
What do you mean?
Lin Bai's pupils couldn't help but shrink slightly.
Zhou Yinglong just smiled and had no intention of talking any more. He only said: "The second prince is very much looking forward to cooperating with the Southwest King."
As he spoke, he made a gesture of invitation.
Lin Bai glanced at him and said, "That's right! I also look forward to the second prince's sincerity."
After saying that, he ignored the other party and strode away.
King Ganfan, Shen Polu and his party had already come up to him, made sure that the talented man was fine, and then left together.
Zhou Yinglong looked at the retreating figures of the talented man and his entourage, and then left the same place.
