"Prince Lidun, you are indeed chasing me." Xiang Nan cupped his hands and smiled.
Prince Lidun was stunned for a moment, and then asked doubtfully, "How did the fifth prince know that I would come after him?"
"I think Prince Lidun is wise, brave and courageous. He is not a thing in the pond." Xiang Nan said with a smile, "But King Shuobo is old and fatuous, timid and cowardly. In my opinion, Shuobo should have changed hands long ago." Xiang Nan smiled.
"Hahahaha~" Prince Lidun laughed up to the sky when he heard this, feeling that Xiang Nan's words really spoke to his heart.
Chai Mu was a little surprised when he saw this.
Prince Lidun intended to usurp the throne, but he didn't even notice it. He didn't expect Xiang Nan to be so smart, which was really beyond his expectation.
"Come, please follow me." Prince Lidun moved Xiang Nan and Chai Mu to the high platform.
I saw that wine and delicacies were already laid out there.
"Fifth prince, this is the best wine in my Casa Castle. My uncle Wang, who is so picky about it, refuses to use it to entertain distinguished guests. I am here to excuse him, please!" Prince Lidun said with a smile, He said that he would drink a drink first to show that he was harmless.
"Okay, it's really a beautiful wine, with a rich and mellow aroma. Prince Lidun is really grand." Xiang Nan drank a full glass and praised with a smile.
"I am also willing to send 100,000 troops to help Fengchao attack Danchi." Prince Lidun said again.
"Okay, if Prince Lidun really helps me destroy Danchi, I promise to speak kindly to my father and help you ascend to the throne of King Shuobo." Xiang Nan also said.
"Thank you, Fifth Prince, do it!" Prince Lidun raised his glass.
"Do it!" Xiang Nan also laughed.
…
After drinking and swearing an oath with Prince Lidun, Xiang Nan and Chai Mu returned to Anhu Mansion in the Western Territory.
"Second brother, I'm back." After Xiang Nan returned, he reported to Li Chengye.
"Thank you for your hard work, fifth brother. How is it? Have you found King Dan Chi's tent?" Li Chengye asked immediately after seeing Xiang Nan.
"Thanks to the blessing of heaven, I am lucky enough to live up to my destiny." Xiang Nan said with a smile.
"Have you really found King Dan Chi's tent?" Li Chengye was shocked when he heard this.
Gao Xian and Pei Zhao also came to the meeting hall at this time. They couldn't help but be surprised when they heard that Xiang Nan had really found King Danchi's tent.
"Not bad." Xiang Nan nodded and took out the map of King Danchi's tent. It was exactly the route Gu Jian walked.
"Fifth brother, how did you get this map?" Li Chengye asked curiously.
"It's really lucky to say that I rescued a man who escaped from Danchi in the desert. He was kidnapped by the Danchi people before and was taken away by the people of Fengchao." Xiang Nan explained, "It was he who took me to King Danchi. Account, that’s why I can be so successful.”
Li Chengye was stunned after hearing this. He never expected that Xiang Nan would find King Danchi's tent so easily and make such a big contribution.
If he had known this, he would not have given this task to Xiang Nan.
"Blessed people don't have to be busy, and unlucky people are heartbroken. The fifth prince is really auspicious and has his own destiny." Gao Xian smiled and praised, "Your Majesty, the fifth prince is not familiar with the terrain of the Western Territory. How can he be so lucky in such a short time Finding King Tiedal's tent is truly a miracle!"
When Li Chengye heard this, his face became even more ugly, and he said nitpickingly, "Fifth brother finally arrived at the Danchi company camp. Why don't you stay a few more days to get a clear picture of the armament situation before coming back?"
"Second brother, King Danchi's tent is heavily guarded. I'm afraid of being discovered, so I can only investigate on the outside. Where can I find armaments?" Xiang Nan explained.
"It is extremely difficult for the fifth prince to find the king's tent. The general has been guarding Anhu Mansion in the Western Region for many years and has been trying to find Prince Danchi's tent, but he has not been able to find it." Gao Xian spoke for Xiang Nan again.
No matter what, they are now on the same line and cannot watch Li Chengye deliberately suppress Xiang Nan's achievements.
"Fifth brother is indeed very resourceful. For my brother, I really... worry too much." Li Chengye said with dry appreciation.
Xiang Nan didn't point out that he would express his merits for himself, but it was too light to be praised for being "resourceful" after he had made such great contributions.
It can be seen from this that Li Chengye is really a rat's belly and a chicken's intestines, and has no tolerance for others.
You know, he is the coach of this expedition against Dan Chi. No matter how much credit Xiang Nan has made, the biggest credit still belongs to him as the coach.
But he still wants to belittle and suppress Xiang Nan. He is really narrow-minded and has no magnanimity at all.
…
"By the way, second brother, I have one more thing to tell you. After I found King Danchi's tent, I took a rough look at the armaments near the king's tent.
This Danchi people are brave and good at fighting and are heavily guarded. If we attack by force, our chances of winning may be less than half. So I made my own decision and went to Shuobo on the way back. I borrowed a hundred thousand troops from King Lidun of Shuobo to help us attack Danchi. Xiang Nan said again.
Now Li Chengye couldn't stand it anymore.
Xiang Nan not only found King Dan Chi's tent, but also brought in a strong supporter for the Feng Dynasty.
The merit of such a combination of vertical and horizontal is no less than that of finding King Danchi's account.
Therefore, he looked at Xiang Nan intently, with extremely complicated emotions in his eyes.
After a long time, he came to his senses and said with a smile, "Good thing, good thing! It's such a big thing, why don't you discuss it with your brother first? People in Shuobo have always been unfaithful and reneged on their promises. If If the news is leaked to Dan Chi, things will be ruined!"
Seeing that he was nitpicking again, Pei Zhao couldn't stand it anymore.
Xiang Nan brought in Shuo Bo as a strong supporter, but Li Chengye did not show any merit, but even accused Xiang Nan of killing him first and then telling the truth.
"Second brother, don't worry, there will never be any mistakes in this matter. Prince Lidun and King Shuobo have had a long-standing grudge. This time they want to borrow troops to help me annihilate Danchi and sit on the throne.
In fact, before going to Shuobo, I originally wanted to report back to my second brother, but the journey from Danchi to Shuobo only takes a day or two. If I go from Anhufu in the west, it will take at least many days. This matter is urgent. I will cut it first and then play it. Xiang Nan explained, then stood up and apologized, "Second brother, please don't blame me!" "
"Brother, how can I blame you? If we can join forces with Shuo Bo, we have a chance of winning this battle." Li Chengye smiled slightly, stood up, waved his hands and said with a smile.
"Now that the location of King Danchi's tent has been found, it's up to the second brother to arrange the troops and coordinate the overall situation." Xiang Nan added.
Li Chengye nodded, "We will send troops as soon as Li Yan comes back with His Majesty's decree to prepare for war."
Only then did Xiang Nan notice that Li Yan, who was always by Li Chengye's side like a conjoined man, did not appear here.
He was stunned for a moment, and then thought that Li Min should have escorted Batur to Beijing.
Although Batur was from Danchi and once sacked Haizhou City, he had nothing to do with the assassination of the prince. However, Li Chengye was now used as a scapegoat, and the crime of assassinating the Prince of Toyo Chao was placed on his head.
The emperor of the Feng Dynasty, Li Fu, had long wanted to start a war with Dan Chi, so he directly issued the decree to start a war without conducting detailed investigation.
