Rhys took the thick stack of papers and began to read them.

If Rhys might have had some concerns before, then after looking at this thick stack of plans...

Rhys had no more doubts and started reading.

Tian Jinxian's plan was based on his genuine desire to cooperate with them.

This is what Xiao Ce taught us: if you want to deceive someone, then don't think you're deceiving them; everything you do is real.

People would naturally believe it. One sentence that Xiao Ce wrote in the letter he left for them left a deep impression on Tian Jinxian.

That is: "Cooperation is real, and so is betrayal!"

Tian Jinxian could tell from Lisi's attitude.

Reese was convinced and waited silently by his side.

After waiting for Rhys to finish speaking, Rhys nodded and said, "Okay...okay...okay!"

After listening to Lis's words, Tian Jinxian asked, "Is Your Highness really alright?"

Ries said to Tian Jinxian, "That's right, we can see your sincerity. Rest assured, as long as you follow this plan, we will definitely not disturb your Northern Desert Royal Palace here."

Tian Jinxian bowed to Rhys and said, "Your Highness Rhys, this is for the best. As for your garrison... we will certainly take good care of them, but we also hope that you will select some... more reliable generals!"

"After all, to avoid unnecessary trouble and misunderstandings."

After listening to Tian Jinxian's words, Rhys smiled and nodded: "Okay, no problem. Everything will be done as you say..."

"And rest assured, our main battlefield is on the front lines, and your plan has already given me confidence in you!"

After listening to Rees's words, Tian Jinxian nodded and said, "Then we still need to station troops. Actually, it's for our own safety, to avoid being provoked by others..."

Lis listened and smiled at Tian Jinxian, saying, "That's right... your concerns are valid... but don't worry, I've arranged reasonable people here!"

Tian Jinxian smiled and nodded, saying, "Your Highness, then on behalf of the entire Northern Desert Royal Palace, I thank you... thank you!"

Rhys listened with a look of surprise and excitement and said, "You're being too polite... If anyone should be thanking you, it's you all."

After a pause, Riston turned to Tian Jinxian and said, "Your Highness Riston, there is another matter I would like to ask you, and see if you can help."

Tian Jinxian looked at Rhys with curiosity and puzzlement and said, "Your Highness Rhys, you're being too polite... Let alone helping, we'll do our best to assist you if you just ask..."

"You can just give the order!"

After listening to Tian Jinxian's words, Ries smiled and said, "Then I won't stand on ceremony... I'd like to ask if you have any colleagues or friends in the Central Plains of Xiao Kingdom? If so, could you introduce me? We Slavs are not bloodthirsty, and it would be best if we could resolve this peacefully."

"Actually, you should know very well that we came with sincerity... We just want to help the Xiao Kingdom... So, if it's possible, we can talk! Joining our Slavic nation will bring you many benefits..."

After listening to Rhys's words, Tian Jinxian smiled and said, "Of course I know the benefits..."

Just as Rhys was looking at Tian Jinxian with a curious expression...

Tian Jinxian awkwardly said to Ries, "However, I don't actually know anyone well... As you know, I was initially selected from the Northern Desert Royal Palace. If you want to find someone you know, I only know someone in Maoming City."

"I can get them to hand over the entire city to you..."

Then, Tian Jinxian asked Ries with a puzzled look, "Your Highness Ries, didn't we hear that you sent some people to the Central Plains to negotiate with them? Why, did everything not go smoothly?"

After listening to Tian Jinxian's words, Rhys gave a wry smile: "If it were before, I definitely wouldn't have told you, but now we're not outsiders... there's nothing to hide. Actually, it didn't go smoothly. Firstly, the people we sent might not have been satisfactory. Secondly, those people were actually waiting for a higher offer..."

“I’ve heard that those prefects all have control over their respective regions, and they have a lot of information. They were definitely loyal to Xiao Ce before, but it seems they also heard about Xiao Ce’s death, and they have all become independent. They don’t seem to be sure who will be the overlord here in the end. So, they neither reject nor agree to our side… which makes things very difficult for us.”

"And especially after the arrival of the Fusang Kingdom, they've become even more eager to sell themselves... just waiting to see who can offer them better terms..."

"Or perhaps it's about which side is stronger... They don't seem to care who killed Xiao Ce, and they have no aversion to Fusang. Clearly, it's all about interests... Whoever can give them the greatest benefits, they'll obey. I actually don't want war, after all, war is a lose-lose situation... That's why I wanted to ask you if you know anyone like that?"

Tian Jinxian nodded as he listened, then suddenly slapped his forehead.

"While I say I don't know him, I actually do know someone..."

Seeing Tian Jinxian say this, Riston immediately became curious.

"Who is it? If your introduction is successful, I will never forget you..."

After hearing what Rhys said, Tian Jinxian smiled slightly and then said, "It's Yin Weiyong!"

Ries was taken aback at first, then said to Tian Jinxian, "Commander Tian, ​​you know Prime Minister Yin?"

Tian Jinxian said with a smile, "That's right, don't you know?"

After listening to Tian Jinxian's words, Rhys was stunned for a moment, then said, "Know? Know what?"

Tian Jinxian said to Lisi, "Prime Minister Yin was our chief supervisor before... so I was his subordinate before. He recommended me to be the chief supervisor!"

Rhys was very excited to hear this; he truly did not know that there was this layer of relationship between them.

He had actually been trying to contact Yin Weiyong for a while, but he hadn't found a way to do so.

"That would be wonderful! It would be even better if we could contact Prime Minister Yin!"

Tian Jinxian nodded: "However, you shouldn't have too high hopes. After all, you know that the various prefects have considerable power, while Prime Minister Yin's power is probably only limited to the capital and those small territories..."

After listening to Tian Jinxian's words, Ries shook his head and said, "Isn't there a saying in your Xiao Kingdom that even a starved camel is bigger than a horse? He used to be the most powerful person in the Central Plains of Xiao Kingdom."

After listening to Rhys's words, Tian Jinxian smiled and said, "Your Highness Rhys, you also know this proverb?"

After listening to Tian Jinxian's words, Rhys nodded: "That's right... I am genuinely interested in your Xiao Kingdom's culture."

Listening to Lis's words, Tian Jinxian had already rolled his eyes to the heavens in his heart...

However, there was naturally no reaction on his face.

Immediately afterwards, Tian Jinxian spoke to Li Si, saying that he would try to speak to Yin Weiyong as well.

But whether it will actually work out or not, he doesn't know.

Seeing this, Rhys thanked Tian Jinxian, and after exchanging pleasantries, they prepared to leave.

Tian Jinxian did not stop him.

Yan Jia and Han Da were quite surprised to see Lisi return.

He looked at Tian Jinxian with a surprised expression and said, "They really didn't ask us a single question..."

Tian Jinxian smiled at Yan Jia and Han Da and said, "This is a common problem among these foreigners: blind self-confidence. The person they are most afraid of and most wary of is none other than Prince Xiao Ce."

“They don’t take anyone else seriously…including us… They think that once Xiao Ce falls, the Xiao Kingdom will fall apart… and we will inevitably have to rely on him…”

"To them, you are nothing more than tools..."

Yan Jia and Han Da nodded, completely indifferent to the attitudes and emotions of these people...

However, they were somewhat surprised by Tian Jinxian's attitude.

Tian Jinxian noticed the two men staring at him and smiled slightly: "Gentlemen, why are you looking at me like that? Do you think there's a problem?"

The two men shook their heads and said to Tian Jinxian, "We just feel that you've had a tough time."

After listening to their conversation, Tian Jinxian looked at them with a puzzled expression and said, "Not easy? What's not easy about it?"

"You and the Prince have never actually met, yet you trust him so firmly? That's not easy... You know, even when we heard the news of the Prince's death, we weren't this convinced!"

After listening to what the two were saying, Tian Jinxian smiled and nodded: "Actually, it's nothing. Although I've never met the Prince, I've heard a lot about him... and I know quite a bit about him. I can say I'm his staunch supporter. I saw what the Northern Desert Prince's Mansion was like back then... In just a few years, he transformed this place from a living hell into the paradise it is today. That's no easy feat!"

"Therefore, I firmly believe that our Prince is the son of God, or at least the Emperor of Man... Such a person is blessed with great fortune, so how could he die so easily! He must have his mission. As long as you are well-versed in history, you will know that such a person would not die easily even if he wanted to..."

When the two men heard Tian Jinxian say this, they were clearly not quite sure what he meant and looked at him with a slightly bewildered expression.

After all, what Tian Jinxian said was quite esoteric...

"What great fortune? What son of God? What human emperor? Commander Tian, ​​what are you talking about? I don't understand a word you're saying!" The two looked at Tian Jinxian with slight confusion.
