Reborn as the first poisonous concubine

Chapter 365 Discussion 1
Xiao Heng was very satisfied with Xiao Jingyao's words, but he didn't make a final decision on whether to send troops immediately.After the morning court, Xiao Heng summoned Xiao Jingyao to Qinzheng Hall alone.

"Brother Jing, I am very satisfied with what you have done for me this time... You are worthy of being my right-hand man!" Without the presence of all the ministers, Xiao Heng's tone towards Xiao Jingyao became a bit more intimate.

"Since the emperor trusts the subject, how can the subject live up to the trust of the emperor?" Xiao Jingyao replied indifferently, and did not show joy because of Xiao Heng's praise.

"There are not many people I can trust..." Xiao Heng said this with emotion, his eyes fell on the letter of pleading for help sent by Houyan in front of him.

"I also agree with what you said in the court just now, but I still want to ask you in private, how sincere do you think Houyan is in ceding the city?"

Xiao Jingyao deliberated for a moment, and then slowly said: "Housyan Lord is incompetent, that's why he is in such a predicament. To ask me, Dayin, to send troops, and to cede the city, is the only way they can think of to solve the predicament... Houyan wants to use When we deal with the Northern Wei Dynasty, we can also use the Hou Yan to realize our ambition of severely injuring the Northern Wei Dynasty and establishing a prestige in the world!"

After listening to Xiao Jingyao's words, Xiao Heng was silent for a long time, nodded and smiled and said, "Brother Jing is indeed far more foresight than my ministers! Since sending troops this time is in line with the will of heaven and the people, I have also decided to send a large army to assist Houyan. A good opportunity to hit the Northern Wei Dynasty hard!"

"Brother Huang is wise!" Seeing Xiao Heng finally agreeing to send troops, Xiao Jingyao had a long-lost smile on his face.

Xiao Heng smiled slightly, looked at Xiao Jingyao thoughtfully, and said with a smile: "It seems that I, Dayin, should form an alliance with Houyan for the time being... Houyan proposed in the request letter that he would marry me, Dayin, to form an alliance , Brother Jing has not married a wife yet, and Princess Murong Lanying of Houyan is about the same age as Brother Jing. I don’t think you are as good as you, so I married that Princess Houyan. !"

Hearing this, Xiao Jingyao's usually calm expression finally changed slightly, he hurriedly clasped his hands and replied: "Brother, forgive me, I can't marry that Princess Houyan!"

"Oh?" Xiao Heng raised his eyebrows, stared at the depths of Xiao Jingyao's eyes with great interest, and asked with a half-smile: "Why can't Brother Jing marry her?"

"I already have a favorite woman in my heart, and I have sworn not to marry her long ago, and she is also interested in my brother, I can't let her down!" After Xiao Jingyao said this with a serious expression, he paused, and his tone became more firm: " Therefore, I would like to ask Brother Huang to choose another candidate for alliance, I, Dayin, have a lot of talents, and there must be someone suitable for Princess Houyan!"

"I don't know who is the woman who can make Brother Jing fall in love with him so much?" Xiao Heng was not annoyed because Xiao Jingyao rejected his proposal, but asked with a smile.

"It's Wei Zijin, the daughter of Old General Wei!"

As soon as Xiao Heng heard the word "Wei Zijin", the smile on his face disappeared, his brows frowned slightly, and he quietly asked, "If I remember correctly, isn't Wei Zijin Shen Rui's wife?"

"It was before, but their relationship is weak, and they have already written a letter to separate peacefully..." Xiao Jingyao replied calmly, facing Xiao Heng's inquiring gaze, his expression remained unchanged.

Xiao Heng knew that Wei Zijin was no longer Mrs. Shangshu's business, but he deliberately asked this question, just to test him!
