Bai Qingyan had guessed before that Xiao Rongyan's so-called tribute and claiming to be a minister... was just to make Dongyi's courtiers better accept Yan's garrison, which is not surprising.

If Bai Qing's predictions are correct, Xiao Rongyan will follow the example of Da Zhou and let Dongyi Kingdom bear all the expenses of the Yan army in Dongyi after the Yan Kingdom stationed troops in Dongyi.

This is equivalent to using Dongyi's money to prevent Da Zhou from instigating Dongyi to cause trouble for Yan. It can be regarded as an explanation to Yan's domestic affairs, and it will not affect the gambling country.

If they are in a different place, Bai Qingyan is now sitting in Xiao Rongyan's position, the next step... is to go to the Queen of Dongyi Kingdom to find out about the realities of the Seventh Prince of Dongyi Kingdom, and win over the Queen of Dongyi Kingdom to cooperate.

But just now Bai Qingyan saw the eyes under Xiao Rongyan's mask, looked at Tuoba Yao several times, and wondered if Tuoba Yao's words and deeds dispelled Xiao Rongyan's suspicion.

Regardless of whether the Seventh Prince of Dongyi Kingdom is the real Seventh Prince of Dongyi Kingdom, as long as Yan Kingdom can garrison troops in Dongyi Kingdom, it doesn't really matter to Xiao Rongyan and Yan Kingdom. Like a sword on Dongyi country's throat, if there is any change in Dongyi country, Yan country can destroy Dongyi country at any time.

This is probably why Xiao Rongyan left 5,000 people in the mountain den beside the Emerald River. He has already selected that place, and as long as Dongyi Kingdom agrees to garrison troops, he will follow the trend to decide that place.

There...it is very close to the capital of Dongyi Kingdom, which is definitely enough to deter Dongyi Kingdom from going to Yan Kingdom.

"Then..." Xiao Rongyan looked at Bai Qingyan and the new emperor of Dongyi Kingdom with a smile, "Our Yan Kingdom accepted the compensation from Dongyi Kingdom, but... the soldiers brought by this king will not be brought back, just Stay in Dongyi country just in case, of course, as long as Dongyi country has no intention of provoking our Yan country, these soldiers are just putting on a show, otherwise Dongyi country will not be a vassal and will not allow troops to be stationed. This battle has been fought like this Days... this king will not be able to explain to our Majesty and the people even after he goes back!"

Bai Qingyan's smile deepened, as expected...

This matter is a matter between Dongyi Kingdom and Yan Kingdom, and it was too obvious that Da Zhou didn't want to get involved.

"Then where does Yan Guo want to station its troops?" Tuoba Yao turned to look at Xiao Rongyan and asked.

"Since the garrison is for deterrence and defense, it is natural that it should be relatively close to the capital!" After Xiao Rongyan finished speaking, he smiled and said to the Queen of Dongyi Kingdom, "Please invite the Queen of Dongyi Kingdom, the new emperor, and all the courtiers of Dongyi Kingdom Don't worry, our country of Yan is the same as Dazhou, the most important thing right now is the affairs of the country of gambling, and we only want to be safe and sound! In the future, if the country of gambling wins by luck... just as the new emperor of Dongyi country said, Dongyi The country is a subsidiary country of the Yan State, if the Yan State loses, there is no need to attack Dongyi to make wedding clothes for Da Zhou!"

The sentence makes sense, but it is impossible to refute.

Xiao Rongyan rested his elbows on the hidden table, his brows and smile deepened, and he said: "Dongyi Kingdom is unwilling to pay tribute to Yan Kingdom, if even the garrison refuses to agree, I'm afraid our Yan Kingdom is full of people... ...can't agree either!"

He straightened his cuffs, and then said: "Signing a covenant is a matter of taking one step back and one step back. There is absolutely no reason for only one family to back down. So here, don't be too dissatisfied with Dongyi, the two countries will take a step back, the covenant will be signed, everything will be fine, Dongyi will be safe, and this king can go back to deal with business."

When the courtiers of Dongyi Kingdom were discussing a lot, Xiao Rongyan said again: "Now that Yan Kingdom and Dazhou have fought here, Dongyi Kingdom can't treat them too differently. Although our Yan Kingdom is indeed inferior to Dazhou He is so powerful that he dare not go to war with Da Zhou, but little Dong Yi is not afraid!"

"Our Dongyi is already a subordinate state of the Great Zhou, and the regent of the Yan Kingdom is acting like this, so why not look at the Great Zhou!" Dongyi courtiers bowed in Bai Qingyan's direction, since Dongyi is now a subordinate of the Great Zhou The country, and the amount of tribute paid to Dazhou every year is ten times that of the tribute paid to Daliang. Naturally, Dazhou should be sheltered at critical times.

Xiao Rongyan nodded after hearing what the Dongyi courtier said, then turned to look at Bai Qing and said, "Da Zhou and the State of Yan had an alliance first, and they once destroyed Xiliang together to resist the State of Tianfeng, and now the two countries are gambling with each other. Years from now, no matter who wins or loses, they will be a family. Da Zhou's fight against Dongyi country...is for the sake of venting anger, and also for his own interests. With his family background, Dongyi can benefit from the fisherman. This deal is not worthwhile, so the Emperor Da Zhou would not go to war because of Dongyi Kingdom and Yan Kingdom, otherwise... just now when the king proposed to ask Dongyi Kingdom to become a vassal, Da Zhou It's time for Emperor Zhou to speak out against it, why didn't Emperor Da Zhou say anything?"

Hearing what Xiao Rongyan said, Bai Qingyan laughed lowly: "Ask the Regent, why...why didn't I say a word."

Xiao Rongyan bowed his hands to Bai Qingyan, and then slowly said: "If the emperor of the Great Zhou refuted it, do they want the heart of a villain to judge the belly of a gentleman again in Dongyi Kingdom? Garrisoning troops, but not allowing Yan to garrison troops, could it be that they regard Dongyi as a retreat for Da Zhou? After gambling on the country, if Da Zhou wins, he will take Dong Yi away, and if he loses... just fine Come to Dongyi Kingdom to be the emperor and make a comeback! Because Dongyi Kingdom... is such a country that likes to make progress!"

Bai Qing smiled without saying a word, just looked at Xiao Rongyan lightly.

"The regent of the Yan Kingdom said that, it's too much!" The courtiers of the Dongyi Kingdom raised their voices angrily, "I, Dongyi, have never thought so much before!"

Even though the courtiers of the Dongyi Kingdom who were in a strong mood yelled like this, it still made some courtiers of the Dongyi Kingdom thump in their hearts. They quietly looked at the Emperor Da Zhou who sat on the top seat with their own young master and was dressed in silver armor. Could it be... ...The reason why Da Zhou is not destroying Dongyi now is that if he loses the gambling country in the future, he will take Dongyi as his own?

Seeing the different expressions of the courtiers of Dongyi Kingdom, Xiao Rongyan smiled lightly: "If Dongyi Kingdom is not such a country, why would it take advantage of the time when our two countries are betting against each other, and chase after Da Zhou? The envoys of the Great Zhou, relying on their large numbers of people, killed all the naval forces of the Great Zhou led by King Hancheng, and even said that they would chop up King Hancheng's body and feed them to the dogs. Our country of Yan... had to guard against it! Great Zhou Dynasty It is even more inevitable!"

"That's what the second prince who conspired against him did when he was in power. Now that the second prince is dead, after I ascended the throne... Dongyi Kingdom must have a new look." Tuoba Yao said slowly, "Yan Kingdom The regent is too worried."
