Wu Lie's words were full of tentative meaning, but Gu Chen just smiled when he heard the words. "Let's not talk about the background behind you and me today. I came here with the intention of making friends with His Royal Highness the Second Prince."
Wu Lie cursed in his heart, if you didn't have the backing of the Chen clan behind you, how could I sit down and have a good talk with you?
Thinking about it, he showed a friendly smile on the surface. "If Chen Daoyou really thinks that way, I am also happy to make friends. Since you want to put aside your identity and background, don't call me Your Highness the Second Prince anymore."
"That's fine, then Chen can call you Brother Wu Lie. This glass of wine is toast to you." Gu Chen raised his glass and drank it down, with a polite but chic attitude.
Wu Lie's eyes flickered suddenly, he laughed and saluted in return. "Brother Chen is too polite."
The two soon had a happy conversation, and it was hard to imagine the confrontation at the banquet before.
Tang Xuance was secretly vigilant, he had only discovered Prince Wulie's dominance and strength before, but only now did he realize that his rough appearance has gone very deep into the city.
Thinking about it, if he simply only knew how to use power to suppress others, this person would have already been defeated in the battle for the Dasheng throne, how could he be able to thrive today?
"Since we are friends, it's better to say some things openly and honestly, so as to ease Brother Wulie's heart." Gu Chen entered the topic while chatting.
"Oh? I don't know what brother Chen wants to say?" Wu Lie smiled all over his face, as if he was listening attentively.
"I owed a kindness to the royal family of Pei in the early years. Now that they have come to me, I can't help them. Therefore, I want to ask Brother Wu Lie to give them a break." Gu Chen said nonsense.
Wu Lie's face turned cold immediately, it's no wonder he believed this, if the royal family of Ruopei is really kind to this guy, why would he kneel down and beg him?
This is obviously just an excuse, an excuse to meddle in Peiguo's affairs, this guy is really uneasy and kind when he comes to the door today!
"Brother Chen is joking. The Liu family has the supreme royal power in Peiguo. How can I threaten them?"
"Don't speak dark words in front of Ming people. I know what brother Wulie thinks, and I won't make it difficult for brother Wulie. As long as brother Wulie is willing to let Mrs. Liu go, I will naturally show my sincerity accordingly." Gu Chen pressed continued.
"Oh? I wonder what sincerity Brother Chen can show?" Wu Lie remained calm.
"Since Brother Wulie is optimistic about the Seventh Prince succeeding the Pei Kingdom, after discussing with Mrs. Liu, I think that the Seventh Prince is indeed a good candidate."
As soon as Gu Chen said this, Wu Lie was stunned.
The Crow Commander standing next to Wulie understood, and a look of deep disdain appeared in his eyes.
I thought this guy was amazing, but I didn't expect that he surrendered today!
Wu Lie came back to his senses, glanced at Tang Xuance, and saw that his expression was serious, but he didn't refute his words, so it can be seen that this was not Chen Yi's joke.
"Brother Chen really gave me a generous gift. I can feel the sincerity."
Wu Lie was overjoyed. It would be great for him if he could solve the problem of Peiguo so easily.
"Of course, since Mrs. Liu has compromised on the issue of succession to the throne, I also hope that brother Wu Lie can make a corresponding retreat, which can be regarded as giving me a little face." Gu Chen changed the topic.
"Of course I'm willing to give Brother Chen face, let's talk about it." At this moment, Wu Lie looked at Gu Chen pleasingly, and felt that the other party really wanted to make friends.
"I hope that after the Seventh Prince takes office, brother Wulie can stop here and stop interfering in the affairs of the Pei Kingdom."
Gu Chen said seriously, Wu Lie wanted to promise immediately, but was interrupted by him. "I hope Brother Wulie will take this issue seriously. It won't work for me to do something behind the scenes. If you agree to it now and play tricks later, you and I will look very bad."
Ulie's smile gradually faded.
He thought that the other party had given in to him and wanted to step down again, so he was willing to tell him anything about the nice scene just now.
However, when he carefully chewed his words, he found that the other party didn't want a step up, but really asked him not to interfere in the affairs of Peiguo, so he couldn't laugh anymore.
"Brother Chen, are you kidding me?" Wu Lie's face became ugly, and his tone was a little gloomy.
The reason why he wanted the seventh prince to inherit the throne was because he thought he was the weakest and could be bullied, and his ascendancy would help him to smoothly control the government of Peiguo.
However, Gu Chen asked him not to interfere in the affairs of the Pei Kingdom. If he agreed, what would be the point of the original plan to have the Seventh Prince succeed to the throne? Isn't the series of tricks he did in Peiguo all for nothing?
Everyone is a smart person, so it is not impossible to not understand the stakes, so he felt that what the other party said earlier was simply playing with himself!
"Brother Wulie misunderstood, I am very sincere to resolve this matter." Gu Chen said indifferently.
"Sincerity ass? Do you think I'm a fool?" Wulie's eyes turned cold, and he winked at the crow commander beside him.
The crow commander immediately understood, stepped forward, and yelled loudly. "How dare you play tricks on my lord, you can't help being presumptuous here!"
After he finished speaking, he was about to start, intending to test the opponent's foundation.
However, after just taking a step, he felt his whole body tense, and he showed signs of being unable to move!
His expression changed, trying to break free from this sense of restraint, but he felt that the power gushing out of his body was like a mud cow drowning in a swamp, and it was difficult to resist the mysterious power descending on his body!
"Fix body technique?" He was puzzled and couldn't believe it.
The other party is from the Chen family, so he naturally guarded against the other party's body-holding technique from the very beginning, but this body-holding technique was even more treacherous than he imagined. He obviously didn't see any signs of the other party performing the spell, so why did he do it? up?
Commander Crow's heart sank, this is a big embarrassment!
Seeing that the general crow had not made a move for a long time, Wu Lie's face became dark and uncertain, and his expression became even more embarrassing for a while.
Was taken down without even a chance to make a move? Is Chen Clan's body-holding technique really that powerful?
Feeling as uncomfortable as swallowing a fly, Wulie's heart was full of anger, but he couldn't vent it.
"Brother Wulie, why are you so impatient? I know that you don't really want Peiguo, but just want to increase your chips in the battle for the throne. That being the case, I believe that an alliance between you and me is the best choice. Why bother to fight and kill? Broken face? I believe Brother Wu Lie will not fail to understand the principle that cooperation benefits both."
Gu Chen opened his mouth in a nonchalant manner, and his "fixation technique" made his words seem very weighty, and Wu Lie also listened carefully.
"Alliance? How can I trust that the Liu family of Peiguo can sincerely form an alliance with me? Why should I choose to trust others when I can control the power in my own hands? I don't want to have the opportunity to stab someone in the back!" Wu Lie said gloomyly face said.
"It's not an alliance with the Liu family, but an alliance with me." Gu Chen said meaningfully.
"You? How can I trust you, a guy who came out of nowhere?" Ulie laughed angrily, slapped the table and stood up.
