Chapter 304
"Forget it, if you want to keep it secret, then we won't ask any more questions."

Xu Xiao sighed lightly, and then changed the topic: "Good son-in-law, why didn't you take over Qin in one fell swoop?"

"If you ask me, you should go all out and become the new emperor of Qin."

Zhao Wuji shook his head: "Being an emperor is already troublesome enough. If you force yourself to be the emperor of Qin, it will only be even more troublesome."

"In addition, I also know how capable I am. I can bite off more than I can chew. I can conquer the three southern states."

Xu Xiao gave a thumbs up to Zhao Wuji and sincerely praised him: "A good son-in-law is really shrewd and knows the right choices."

"You are right, it is indeed enough to win the three southern states."

"But having said that, your ambition is really not big, and you really are not interested in being an emperor."

"If it had been anyone else, they might have forced Qin to change its appearance."

After Xu Xiao paused, he asked again: "Good son-in-law, what do you plan to do with the three southern states?"

Zhao Wuji said: "I think the three southern states are regarded as buffer areas between Qin and Li, and no special treatment is needed."

Xu Xiao nodded first, and then said: "Although the land in the three southern states is not very good, it is still so big. I think we can use it. How about we, the people from Northern Liang, move some there?"

After saying this, Xu Xiao stared at Zhao Wuji closely, with a sense of pleading.

By doing this, Xu Xiao undoubtedly wanted to benefit the people of Beiliang and strive for more and better living space.

And because the three southern states were conquered by Zhao Wuji, this requires Zhao Wuji's consent.

Xu Xiao was asking Zhao Wuji for help in disguise.

Zhao Wuji did not respond immediately, but after thinking for a while, he said: "In this way, we will use the state closest to Beiliang, and the other two states will be used as buffer areas."

When Xu Xiao heard this, he immediately said with a very satisfied smile: "Okay!"

"I am here to thank my good son-in-law again for the people of Beiliang!"

"Thank you to my good son-in-law for allowing me, a native of Beiliang, to have more living space!"

When saying these words, Xu Xiao stood up and saluted Zhao Wuji solemnly.

Although Zhao Wuji accepted it calmly, he still waved his hand: "Father-in-law, you're welcome. I'm also happy to see things put to their best use."

Although the three southern states are not particularly good places, they are still a very large territory.

In addition to using these three states to support the Wuji Army, Zhao Wuji would only develop useful resources at most, and the rest would be of little use.

Taking out one of the states for people from Beiliang to live in is not only a form of beauty for adults, but also a way to make the best use of the property. After all, it is still waste, so it would be good to put it to use.

After expressing his thanks on behalf of Beiliang, Xu Xiao sat back down.

Immediately afterwards, he said matter-of-factly: "Zhao Wuji, I am really glad that you have become my son-in-law."

"If you hadn't become my son-in-law in Beiliang and had not established such a good relationship with Beiliang, you can imagine how difficult my situation in Beiliang would have become."

Xu Xiao told the truth.

When the imperial court and Beiliang did not deal with each other, if Zhao Wuji failed to become the son-in-law of the Xu family, he would not have a close relationship with Beiliang.

Then, Zhao Wuji is likely to be on the opposite side of Beiliang in the future.

If that's the case, Beiliang will only be dealt with.

There was no way, even though Beiliang was strong, it still couldn't compare with Zhao Wuji.

If there was a real fight, Beiliang would definitely be the loser.

Of course, whoever touches Beiliang will pay a heavy price.

Xu Fengnian echoed: "I agree with what Dad said. We should be glad that our brother-in-law and I have become a family that loves each other, not enemies."

Zhao Wuji nodded and said nothing.

Xu Xiao seemed to have thought of something, and immediately said: "Good son-in-law, with your current strength, I will definitely let you sit on that dragon throne in the future."

Nowadays, everyone in Liyang should have such thoughts.With the current strength of Zhao Wuji, the King of Qi, he is more powerful than Xu Xiao, the King of Northern Liang.

No other prince is qualified to compare with Zhao Wuji.

For Li Yang, letting Zhao Wuji, the eleventh prince, inherit the throne is the best choice.

If Zhao Chun was in his right mind, he would choose to let Zhao Wuji inherit the throne.

Zhao Wuji didn't think too much and said calmly: "Don't worry about it now, wait until we get to that point!"

"Good son-in-law, we in Beiliang definitely still hope that you can sit on the throne."

Xu Xiao said slowly: "Now for Beiliang, the big trouble of Qin State has been temporarily solved, and the remaining trouble is the court."

"You also know that the relationship between Beiliang and the imperial court has not been very good."

"If you become emperor, the relationship between Beiliang and the imperial court will definitely improve a lot."

Zhao Wuji nodded: "I know."

"Actually, even if I don't become emperor, the relationship between Beiliang and the imperial court will be improved because of my relationship."

Xu Xiao nodded: "Indeed."

"Okay, I won't say that much. As for whether you want to be the emperor or not, it depends on you!"

Xu Xiao turned to look at Xu Fengnian and changed the topic: "I plan to pass the position of King of Northern Liang to Fengnian in the near future."

Zhao Wuji raised his eyebrows in surprise: "So fast?"

Xu Xiao said: "I have worked hard for most of my life, and I also want to enjoy peace and happiness."

Zhao Wuji said: "It makes sense and should be supported."

Xu Xiao looked at Zhao Wuji and said seriously: "Good son-in-law, I also want to ask you to support Fengnian."

"Although I have my support, Fengnian will inevitably encounter some problems when taking over the position of King of Beiliang."

Zhao Wuji readily agreed: "Okay, no problem."

Xu Xiao smiled knowingly: "With your words, I feel relieved."

"Good son-in-law, then you can stay a few more days and make plans after attending Feng Nian's succession ceremony."

Zhao Wuji nodded: "Okay."

Later, under the questioning of Xu Xiao and others, Zhao Wuji discussed in detail the attack on Shaoyang Pass and the occupation of Xianyang City.

Time passes unconsciously.

Zhao Wuji and the others stayed in the study for almost an hour, and then they went to rest.

When Zhao Wuji returned to his residence, he saw Xuanyuan Qingfeng standing under the sycamore tree with his hands behind his back as soon as he entered the courtyard gate.

Zhao Wuji walked up to a man dressed in purple and asked, "Are you waiting for me on purpose?"

The woman in purple heard the sound and turned around slowly.

Xuanyuan Qingfeng glanced at Zhao Wuji first, and then said softly: "The matter is over, I plan to return to Huishan."

Zhao Wuji asked: "Are you leaving now?"

Xuanyuan Qingfeng nodded.

Zhao Wuji frowned: "Why are you so anxious?"

Xuanyuan Qingfeng said: "Huishan has many things to deal with."

Zhao Wuji said: "There's nothing serious happening in Huishan, so why do you need to handle it personally?"
