Chapter 65: Double Repayment

But in Lin's court, Wang Lin bowed his head and said nothing. Qian Xiaoxing had not been caught in the search for several days. Unconsciously, the hope became increasingly slim. He sighed and said, "My dear friends, now that Qian Xiaoxing has been escaped, how should we negotiate with Hu?"

The officials below bowed their heads and said nothing. At that time, they used five cities to exchange Qian Xiaoxing, and most of them supported them. Now the exchange was not successful, but instead destroyed the Three Kingdoms Alliance. They all regretted it. When they heard the question from King Lin, they were speechless and didn't know what to do...

"Isn't anyone able to help me solve my problems? If you are half smart with money, Xiaoxing!" King Lin said with an angry look on his face and cold eyes.

Under the threat of King Lin, a general came out and said, "King Lin, I guess Qian Xiaoxing has escaped back to Si State. It is better for us to break through Huju Pass, arrest Qian Xiaoxing again, and exchange cities with Hu State."

"It's not easy to attack Huju Pass. Do you also think that Lin Guo and Hu will lose 80,000 troops there?" Wang Lin replied immediately, thinking for a while and said, "If there was no Huju Pass, you could try it. Did Qian Xiaoxing have expected this to be today? The prince consort would rather not do it, and he would have to Huju Pass."

The general continued, "King Lin, why don't we join forces with Hu and attack in two directions, Hu will attack Cangqiong Pass, and our Lin attack Huju Pass, I believe it will succeed."

"If you can consider joining the Hu Kingdom, you can think about it." King Lin couldn't help but think.

"Haha," Lin Yilong suddenly laughed and said, "King Lin, do you really want to lose more than 100,000 soldiers' lives to attack Huju Pass? Even if we can fight, we can just grab a Jima City, and Si State can retreat to Panlong Pass. Moreover, Si State has an ally of Dashi State. At that time, we will invade our country and catch fire in our backyard, which will be even more troublesome. Now Si State is just a flesh-free bone, and it will be hard to bite it. What benefits can it have?"

Speaking of interests, King Lin is the most proficient in calculating. After hearing Lin Yilong's words, he suddenly realized and said, "Yes, it's not worth it. Then Lord Lin quickly show me what to do now?"

Lin Yilong sighed: "This time, our Lin Kingdom was plotted by Hu Kingdom again. After arresting Qian Xiaoxing this time, the relationship between Lin Kingdom and Si Kingdom will not be as harmonious as before, so the Three Kingdoms Alliance cannot continue."

"Mr. Lin is right, but will Qian Xiaoxing ignore past grudges and join us?" Wang Lin thought for luck.

After hearing this, Lin Yilong cursed King Lin in his heart, saying that if someone wanted to stab you in the back, you would pretend that it was okay to get along with you. Unless he was a fool, he could only say, "It is impossible to get back together. As long as the State of Si does not send troops to attack my State of Lin, I think it is already very good."

After hearing this, King Lin was shocked and said, "You mean, Si Guo still wants to attack my Lin Guo? He dares!"

Lin Yilong replied: "Si State is no longer the same as before. King Lin cannot look at it from the previous perspective. Si State has now obtained Huju Pass, and can defend it when retreating, and can advance straight in. With Qian Xiaoxing's ability, it is not impossible to attack Qidu City in the future."

After hearing this, Wang Lin's forehead suddenly felt fine beads of sweat. He hurriedly wiped it with a handkerchief and said in disbelief: "Mr. Lin, are you scaring me with false words? It's not that serious?"

"If it was someone else, I don't have to worry, but what kind of person is Qian Xiaoxing? Hu's great country, the 80,000 elite elites were killed without leaving any armor. Until now, he was forced to exchange five cities for him. If he remembered the revenge of being captured this time and joined forces with Hu to form their Three Kingdoms Alliance, how can I, Lin Guo, protect myself!" Lin Yilong said worriedly.

"Ah!" King Lin suddenly collapsed on the chair, as if he was in a battlefield of war. Seeing the scene of Hu, Si, and Dashi Kingdom attacking the city of Qidu from three directions, he immediately said anxiously: "Mr. Lin, you must save Lin."

Lin Yilong said worriedly: "In the case of Lin State, how can I stand by and watch? I have a way, maybe I can give it a try."

King Lin stood up anxiously, walked down, and said, "Sir Lin, speak!"

"King Lin, you also know that Princess Zicui and Qian Xiaoxing are in love with each other." Lin Yilong reminded.

Wang Lin said with some understanding: "Yes, I can use Zicui to threaten Qian Xiaoxing."

Lin Yilong heard this and said anxiously: "If you threaten and make Qian Xiaoxing angry and attack them, it will be even more difficult to deal with. I don't mean to threaten, but to marry Princess Zicui to Qian Xiaoxing."

"Oh, you mean to marry him," Wang Lin smiled embarrassedly and said, "Mr. Lin's method is good. As the saying goes, I marry all women to Qian Xiaoxing. Qian Xiaoxing should give me some face, otherwise it would be so concise to attack his father-in-law."

Lin Yilong said with a worried look on his face: "Yes, that's it. Although Princess Zicui and Qian Xiaoxing are in love, I'm afraid that Qian Xiaoxing will not marry Princess Zicui and want to take revenge, that's a problem."

After hearing this, King Lin became impatient, walked back and forth in the hall, and said, "This is not, that is not, what should I do?"

"King Lin, if Princess Zicui's dowry was more generous, it might have moved Qian Xiaoxing. I think few people can refuse the temptation of both people and wealth." Lin Yilong reminded.

"Yes, people don't like money. OK, last time I asked for 20,000 taels of gold from Hu, I distributed 5,000..." Wang Lin looked at Lin Yilong, saw Lin Yilong shook his head, and continued, "Eight thousand..." Seeing that Lin Yilong still shook his head, he said cruelly: "Ten thousand taels of gold, no more!"

Lin Yilong then leaned over and replied, "I beg Qian Xiaoxing for forgiveness and gave him a wife. I think Qian Xiaoxing won't refuse, and King Lin should be relieved."

Wang Lin breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Then Lord Laulin will do this matter quickly. I am afraid that there will be more dreams in the night. If Qian Xiaoxing really goes to join forces with Hu, it will be a big trouble."

"Okay, I'll go and handle it immediately." Lin Yilong walked out of the hall and thought to himself: Qian Xiaoxing, letting King Lin pay his daughter and give it to you today, which is considered as a ventriloquy by brother.

At night, oil refining lamps had been lit in Huju Pass, and it was like daylight in the vicinity, and there were sparks in the distance. Qian Xiaoxing was in a relaxed mood and drank a lot of wine. He was intrigue outside and was worried. He finally ended up. He spent nearly two months out this time and spent most of his time on the road. He was just in a hurry to rush and never strolled around. He basically forgot where he had been.

Of course, King Si and Lu Shengzhong were very interested in Qian Xiaoxing's experience this time. Not only could he marry Shi Guo's princess, but he also transported so many things back. Qian Xiaoxing talked endlessly. When it comes to being arrested by King Lin, everyone was filled with righteous indignation.

King Si said excitedly: "Xiao Qian, King Lin has made a fuss. If it weren't for your guard company's bravery, I would have almost killed your life. I must help you with this tone. Even if I have the power of the country, I will let King Lin know that King Si is not easy to bully now."

Lu Shengzhong also echoed: "Yes, Lin Guo bullies people too much, and fights with Lin Guo."

Qian Xiaoxing quickly pressed down with both hands, signaling everyone not to be excited, and said, "Yes, King Lin is indeed too much this time. But I agreed to MCA and did not take the initiative to attack Lin State. Moreover, with our current national strength, we still cannot afford to spend our time with Lin State. This matter will be discussed for a long time."

King Si and Lu Shengzhong continued to persuade him, but when they saw that Qian Xiaoxing had decided, they stopped. Qian Xiaoxing suddenly thought of something and said, "Good wine and good food are not enough. I will give you some more programs to cheer you up and bring Shi Yao with me."

After a while, Shi Yao brought it there and saw Qian Xiaoxing immediately knelt down and said, "General Qian, you have returned to Si State. Can you let me go?"

Qian Xiaoxing shook his head and said, "Commander Shi, have you forgotten what I said?"

"You, what did you say..." Shi Yao said pretending to be confused.

Qian Xiaoxing put down his wine glass, stood up and said, "If you forget, I will remind you that you hit me 65 whips that day, but I counted clearly. I said that I will definitely pay back twice the price in the future. I have always kept my promises in my words, so I am sorry to Commander Shi."

"One Hundred and Thirty Whips..." Shi Yao heard that he was slumped on the ground, and thought for a while, he begged for mercy and said, "General Qian, spare me, treat me as a dog, let me go."

"Yes, you are a dog. When you let you go back, I've learned a lesson," Qian Xiaoxing walked to Shi Yao, who was shaking and said, "In this way, I'll give you a choice. Should you receive one hundred and thirty whips at a time, or pay in installments?"

"Installation payment? I don't understand." Shi Yao asked.

Qian Xiaoxing explained: "That's it. One hundred and thirty whips can be beaten in one day. But if you have to count the interest, you will have to beat it for fifteen days and one hundred and fifty whips. Which one do you choose?"

Shi Yao thought about it and said that after 130 whips, he would be half a life even if he didn't die. So he said, "Then I'll choose to pay in installments."

"Okay, today's ten whips, I'll hit you now!" Qian Xiaoxing signaled the soldiers to tie Shi Yao up, shook the whip and whipped it hard, and it made Shi Yao cry and cry, and she burst into tears.

Qian Xiaoxing finished ten whips hard, and the whipped one day finally got out of some anger and told the soldiers, "Just feed him with simple food, he will have to fight for fourteen days, don't let him die too early."

"Yes!" The soldier dragged Shi Yao down.

When Lu Shengzhong saw Qian Xiaoxing come back, he said, "It's so satisfying to beat him. When I hear him screaming, I seem to be just listening to singing. It's so fucking comfortable."

King Si stretched his head and asked, "Xiao Qian, I heard that he is the commander of the Imperial Guards of Lin State. What are you going to do about it?"

"I haven't thought about it yet, let's talk about it for fifteen days. It depends on whether I feel good at that time." Qian Xiaoxing said.

"What will we do in the future if the alliance between the Three Kingdoms is broken?" King Si continued to ask.
