Xiao Yuan is quite satisfied with the military defense of Qinguan.

After thinking for a while, he asked again: "Has there been any change in Xirong recently?"

Yang Heng returned: "Our Qingqi often go out to detect the enemy's situation, but we never see anything strange."

"Well, according to the Black Stone Plains Treaty, the Xirong are not allowed to go south to herd horses or enter our territory. Once discovered, no matter whether the opponent is a civilian or a craftsman, they can use force to attack." Xiao Yuandao.

"The general will understand!" Yang Heng cupped his fists.

After chatting for some more, Xiao Yuan looked at King Xuan: "Sister Wang, let's go."

"No, Brother Wang, let's look at other places." King Xuan said.

Xiao Yuan frowned secretly.

But after all, she was a guest and the king of a country. Xiao Yuan had no choice but to take her around again.

King Xuan walked and looked all the way without knowing what he was looking at. He also talked to Wang Su in a low voice from time to time.

Is she blatantly spying on the military intelligence and defense work of the Qin Army?

Afterwards, everyone naturally returned to Qinguan Military Camp.

The army was tough and there was no good food or wine, but Xiao Yuan was used to it during his military career, so he said with a smile during the banquet: "My sister Wang, please forgive me for the simple meal."

"Brother Wang, what are you talking about? This is very good." King Xuan was not pretentious.

The stay at Qinguan lasted for several days.

When he came, King Xuan wanted to see here and there, so the journey was slow, but when he returned, the speed was much faster.

When she returned to Qinzhou, she thought that it was almost time for King Xuan to return to his country, but unexpectedly she proposed to visit Ningyang.

Ningyang is also a border, but it is an internal border. After leaving the customs, it goes down the Han River and borders Wu.

She looked east and west. She said she came to visit Qin State, but it was more like she came to enjoy the mountains and rivers.

But this time, Xiao Yuan did not agree to her, but smiled bitterly and said: "Sister Wang, it's not that I don't want to accompany you, but that the state affairs are really busy and there is a lot of backlog of government affairs."

"Brother Wang is so stingy." King Xuan curled his lips.

"Haha, how about I let Xiang Guo accompany me?" Xiao Yuan could only compromise.

"Okay, okay, I was just joking, how dare I bother your Prime Minister." King Xuan was helpless.

"Then, when will Sister Wang return to China?" Xiao Yuan asked again.

"Drive me away?" King Xuan looked at Xiao Yuan with his beautiful eyes.

"My dear sister, I have misunderstood. I wish to be accompanied by a beautiful woman. It is too late to be happy!" Xiao Yuan joked.

King Xuan's face turned red and he glared at him fiercely. They had been together for many days and often walked together. It was impossible for the two of them to be separated again, so they spoke relatively casually.

"I'll leave tomorrow." She thought for a while and said.

"Ah? So urgent? Sister Wang, please stay for two more days." Xiao Yuan was polite.

"Haha." King Xuan smiled: "Brother Wang, you are so hypocritical. I'm afraid you are almost bored to death, right?"

Xiao Yuan laughed dryly, then changed the topic and said: "The Qin army can escort Wang Mei out of Shanyu Pass, but after leaving the pass, Wang Mei must be careful about everything on the way back to the country."

"What do you mean?" King Xuan frowned.

Xiao Yuan said sternly: "When Sister Wang came to Qinzhou, I accidentally killed a group of lurking assassins. They were well-trained and reclusive. Their target was not me, because in Qinzhou , it is impossible for them to succeed in assassinating this king, does Wang sister understand?"

"Brother Wang means that someone wants to provoke a war between Qin and Xuan?" King Xuan also became serious.

"Yes." Xiao Yuan nodded: "So, after leaving Qin, you must pay attention to safety."

"What about the assassins? Are they all dead?" King Xuan couldn't help but ask again.

"They are all dead soldiers, so their identities would be exposed. Before they were caught, they committed suicide by taking poison."

Xiao Yuan said, and then said: "However, I made a discovery."

"oh?"

"When exposed, they shouted: Enemy attack."

"Army?" King Xuan reacted immediately.

Then he fell into deep contemplation.

"Using soldiers as assassins..."

Her eyes flashed: "Chu State, Black Flag Camp!"

Xiao Yuan smiled, faintly, and didn't say anything more.

"Thank you for telling me, Brother Wang." After King Xuan came to his senses, he bowed his hand again.

"That's what it should be. Sister Wang, there's no need to be polite. It's just a pity that we couldn't catch the assassin." Xiao Yuan waved his hand.

The next day, King Xuan said goodbye, and Xiao Yuan naturally saw him off in person.

The two sides held hands with each other. After the ceremony, Zhong Duoduo next to Xiao Yuan said: "His Royal Highness, Prince Xuan, you have some free time, and you want to come to Qin."

"Definitely, if the princess has time, she can also visit Xuan Kingdom as a guest with Brother Wang." King Xuan smiled politely.

After saying that, he said to Xiao Yuan: "Brother Wang, please stay and say goodbye."

"Cherish it all the way." Xiao Yuan said.

Afterwards, Lian Xiao was ordered to lead troops to escort King Xuan out of the customs.

With such a large army, there will definitely be no problems.

On the way, Wang Su couldn't help but lightly hit the horse's belly, came close to King Xuan, and whispered:

"Your Majesty, although Chu State has reasons to urge Qin to declare war, the words of King Qin cannot be fully believed. Maybe he also wants to provoke a dispute between Xuan and Chu."

You know, Xuan and Chu are adjacent.

King Xuan smiled and said: "Whether this matter is true or false, it is not important. What is important is that our trip is worthwhile."

After saying that, she added: "In your opinion, if Qin Xuan starts a war now, who can win?"

"This...it's hard to say, Wei Chen." Wang Su did not dare to answer easily.

King Xuan shook his head: "From my point of view, Xuan Kingdom only has a 30% chance of winning. It's not just about military strength. There are many reasons for this, and the farther you go, the smaller the chance of winning. However, Qin will expand its territory in the future. It will inevitably be checked and balanced by the Liang Kingdom."

At the same time, the Chu Palace and study room.

A young man was reporting the situation to the King of Chu.

The latter frowned and said displeasedly: "Aren't we just letting them wait for an opportunity?"

The man swallowed and hurriedly explained: "Your Majesty, our people did not take any action, but they were still discovered and investigated. After all, these risks are inevitable in other countries' capitals."

"Where's your identity! Has it been exposed?" King Chu asked again worriedly.

"On this point, your Majesty, you can rest assured. Everyone in the Black Flag Battalion regards death as their own. They will not hesitate to take poison and commit suicide before being exposed!" the man said confidently.

"Well..." King Chu nodded: "As long as he is not arrested, everything is easy to talk about. Otherwise, the Chu State will offend Qin and Xuan both countries."

"Your Majesty, according to the intelligence report, King Xuan has now set off from Qinzhou, we..."

"It's meaningless." King Chu raised his hand to interrupt him: "After the Yan is destroyed, Qin, Liang, Xuan, and Ling cannot be allowed to continue like this, otherwise, the Chu country will be in danger."

In fact, his considerations were redundant.

Because it is impossible for the four countries to maintain an alliance in the future, sooner or later they will meet with swords!
