Chapter 663: Hearsay, commit suicide (1)
How to deal with Xuanyuan Zhi was something that requires careful consideration.
Leaving aside how powerful Xuanyuan Zhi was in the central empire, his status as the eldest prince of the central empire was enough to cause Xiao Tianyao a lot of trouble.
Xiao Tianyao can humiliate Xuanyuan Zhi and exchange Xuanyuan Zhi for benefits, but can’t be too much. After all, it will arouse the disgust of the Central Empire. But it will be too cautious, the thunder and the rain will be small, he will appear incompetent.
As for killing Xuanyuan Zhi?
Xiao Tianyao never had this idea. After killing Xuanyuan Zhi, the black-armored guards would definitely not give up. By then, the black-armored guards would go crazy, and his soldiers would suffer.
Of course, Xiao Tianyao believed that he could beat black-armored guards, but… if he killed Xuanyuan Zhi and then destroyed the black-armored guards. Then it wouldn’t be considered as hitting the Central Empire’s face but stepping on the Central Empire’s face.
Even if he was not afraid of the Central Empire like ordinary people and doesn’t look highly of them. There was no need to prove it by killing Xuanyuan Zhi and provoking the Central Empire’s bottom line.
As everyone knows, he still lacks the strength to compete with the entire Central Empire. It was an unwise idea to fight with the Central Empire at this time.
He was strong. He can compare among the strongest people in the central empire. The Central Empire was a country where the strong were respected. The Central Empire respects the strong, but will never respect the strong who doesn’t take the Central Empire in their eyes and wanted to trample their face.
In front of the central empire, he doesn’t need to bow his head, but he had to have a certain degree. Once that degree was passed, the central empire would be dissatisfied, and the central empire would kill him even if their national strength depleted.
Moreover, he was originally on the rational party. If Xuanyuan Zhi was killed, he would change from the rational party to the unreasonable party.
Killing Xuanyuan Zhi was an extremely uneconomical business. So instead of killing Xuanyuan Zhi and causing endless trouble to himself, he would rather trade Xuanyuan Zhi for some real benefits.
Just as Xiao Tianyao was wondering what to exchange Xuanyuanzhi for from the Central Empire, the messenger appeared again and respectfully said: “Wangye, the eldest prince of the central empire is awake and wants to see his highness.”
“Mmm.” Xiao Tianyao replied, but didn’t rush to get up, “Is the black-armored guards still there?” The black-armored guards asked to see him before, but he refused. He doesn’t know if they leave.
“They are still outside the barracks, and every quarter of an hour, they will send someone to ask to see his highness.” However, except for the first time, no one else passed on the message for them.
If their prince said no, he would not meet them.
“They have long patience…” Xiao Tianyao sneered: “Tell them that benwang’s wangfei’s life is still unknown. Before benwang’s wangfei wakes up, he will not see anyone.” When Lin Chujiu wakes up, he will say he forgot about them.
Anyway, if he said that Lin Chujiu didn’t wake up, then Lin Chujiu didn’t wake up even if she wakes up.
“Yes.” The messenger bowed his head and retreated.
Xiao Tianyao didn’t let Xuanyuan Zhi wait too long. He cleaned up the official documents on the table and went to see Xuanyuan Zhi in the prison.
The big prisons in the barracks were all built with stones. It was cold and strong. There were heavy defenses outside. Under normal circumstances, people couldn’t escape at all, let alone Xiao Tianyao ordered someone to lock Xuanyuan Zhi with a chain made of black iron ores.
No need to think about it. It was the Tian black iron ores that Xuanyuan Zhi distributed to the black-armored guards. At that time, Xiao Tianyao took several sets.
