Sangnan Palace.

After Xie Jue left, King Sangnan immediately summoned Han Ziqi and the eldest prince. The third prince discussed countermeasures. Dugu Jing's army should have arrived at the border by time, and should now have joined the commander's troops. Sang Nan could not defeat the Ningzhou cavalry and his morale was low. If a war started now, he would definitely lose. Both King Sang Nan and Han Ziqi knew it.

"The original intention was to announce his identity and force him to take over as King of Sangnan. A few years later, no one expected Xie Xun to suddenly send troops. Could this be a conspiracy between their brothers?"

"We have intercepted all the letters sent back to Beining from the post house. It shouldn't be the case!" Han Ziqi was in charge of this area and knew that Xie Jue had not said anything to Xie Xun. "It should be that Xie Jue was worried that Xie Jue would really take over as Queen Sangnan. The power is too great, so we sent troops to intimidate him, but now we are indeed riding a tiger with a hard time getting off the ground, father, is Xie Jue still unwilling to take over as Sang Nan?"

"He insisted on refusing. No matter how much I tried to persuade him, he had already made up his mind."

"Father, since he refuses, let's take him as a hostage and we will fight Xie Xun to the death. His brother is in our hands, so we don't dare to act recklessly." The eldest prince has an impatient temper and does not support peace talks in the first place. , I just want to have a good fight, "I would rather defend the border to the death with 200,000 soldiers. Father, please allow me to lead the troops to fight!"

"Do you want to lead two hundred thousand soldiers to die? We can't defeat the Ningzhou cavalry, nor can we defeat the Northern Barbarian army. Now Dugu Jing is also at the border. How can we fight them? Who is Dugu Jing? A famous general in the world, except Xie Xun or Fang Chuning, who can fight with him!"

"Third brother, what do you think?" Han Ziqi asked.

The third prince has always been taciturn. In fact, he has no better way. Now it seems that besides accepting surrender, he also knows what to do. In the face of absolute strength, any strategy is empty talk. How can he plan to change the situation?

Really nothing can be changed!

"If we don't want to be at odds with Beining, there is no good way now." The third prince said, "We failed to win the battle in Xizhou and the Lanzhou battlefield was delayed for too long, so we lost our advantage."

"I don't know who originally vowed to take Xizhou, but with a woman defending the city, there is nothing you can do. Otherwise, we wouldn't be so passive!" The eldest prince taunted him when he got the chance.

Han Ziqi sneered and said, "Yes, I am incompetent and can't beat a woman. What's the point of talking about old things now? Let's settle old scores, right? Who wants to fight against the Twelve States? I suggested that you support the Xie brothers in plotting the Yuwen Dynasty. Jiangshan, who listened to my opinion? If Xie Xun and Xie Jue listened to my opinion, Xie Xun and Xie Jue would not touch Sang Nan at least while Xie Xun was in power. What will happen? You are determined to fight , I can only lead troops to raid Xizhou, I can't defeat a woman... Haha, I have 10,000 soldiers and horses marching day and night, Xizhou is Fengyu's base camp, and there are 5,000 Ningzhou cavalry guards, I can lead most of them away You are already lucky. If you had listened to my advice, why would you have done this?"

The eldest prince sneered, "Who can predict that Xie Xun will definitely ascend the throne? In that situation, he could only huddle in Ningzhou. How could we expect that Yuwen Chao would be so useless."

"That's enough, let's talk about the current matter. The past cannot be traced back, so what's the use of talking about it again!" King Sangnan scolded, "I'm here to discuss with you, not to quarrel!"

"Father, just kill Xie Jue and it will be over!" the eldest prince said angrily, "Xie Xun wants us to die, I will drag Xie Jue along with him to be buried with him!" (End of Chapter)
