Chapter 1808
Wen Shun did not rush to answer Lu Tianba’s words, but sat down and poured himself and Lu Tianba a
glass of wine respectively.
After clinking the glasses gently, he drank the wine in one gulp.
“Good wine!”
Wen Shun clicked his tongue and showed a satisfied smile.
Lu Tianba was not in a hurry, he also drank all the wine in his glass, and then just looked at Wen Wen,
waiting for the next step.
“Lu Zhiyuan invited me to join his camp and promised huge benefits, but I rejected them all.”
Hearing this, Lu Tianba couldn’t help but look happy, but Wen Wen’s next words made him slightly
stunned.
“My young prince, don’t be too happy. Although I rejected Lu Zhiyuan’s invitation, I will not send troops
to help you. I don’t like war, so I choose neutrality.” Wen Shun said straightforwardly.

Lu Tianba frowned slightly and hurriedly persuaded: “Uncle Wen, you are a member of Xiliang. Can
you bear to watch Xiliang fall apart?”
“My young prince, my abilities are limited and I can’t help you much.”
Wen Shun shook his head and said: “I don’t have any ambitions. I just want to live and work in peace
and contentment. I don’t want to participate in these power struggles. I am very satisfied if I can keep
my three-thirds of an acre of land.”
After a pause, he meekly continued: “Young prince, to be honest, you and General Hussar are both of
the Lu family’s blood, and can be considered orthodox, so it makes no difference to me which one of
you will be the king of Xiliang. , the so-called rebellion, in my eyes, is nothing more than a battle for the
throne.”
“This…” Lu Tianba was speechless for a moment.
Although I don’t want to admit it, what the other party said makes sense.
“My young prince, I have a relatively straightforward personality. If I offend you in any way, please
forgive me.” Wen Shun nodded slightly, neither humble nor overbearing.
“Uncle Wen yearns for peace, of course, but if war breaks out, you may not be able to survive alone?”
Lu Tianba advised again.
“My Taiping City is a small border town. It is poor and has nothing. Even if there is a war, it cannot
reach me.”
Wen Shun said calmly: “Besides, I have reached an agreement with Lu Zhiyuan. As long as I do not
participate in the fight between you, then he can guarantee that the war will never spread.”
“Uncle Wen, I can promise you that as long as you help the palace quell the rebellion, I can give you a
city as a gift after that.” Lu Tianba began to induce.
In the end, Wen Wen didn’t even think about it and just shook his head and refused: “Little prince, I
have Taiping City, which is enough. If I have another city, I don’t have the energy to manage it, so I can
only say I’m sorry.”

“Uncle Wen! You always have something you need, right? Just make conditions. As long as I can do it,
I will try my best to satisfy you!” Lu Tianba was a little anxious.
The man in front of me looked completely out of touch.
Have no ambitions, no desires, stay contented, and be content.
Such people are really difficult to deal with.
“I don’t have any conditions. I just want to stay away from trouble and ask the young prince to help me.”
He said meekly, neither humble nor arrogant.
“Uncle Wen, I heard from my father that you were his best friend. Now that my father has passed away
and the palace is in crisis, do you really plan to ignore it?” Lu Tianba started to play the emotional card.
Being meek is not a ruthless person. As long as you are sincere enough, you still have a chance.
“Young prince, although I have a good relationship with your father, with his personality, he will never
force me to do anything I don’t want to do.”
Wen Ming said calmly: “In addition, to put it harshly, your father is a talented and powerful man who led
Xiliang, and no one would disapprove of him; but you are far behind. In fact, in my eyes, General Lu
Zhiyuan is better than General Lu Zhiyuan.” You are more suitable to be the King of Xiliang.”
“Uncle Wen is right, I am indeed not qualified to be the King of Xiliang.”
Lu Tianba nodded noncommittally: “In fact, I never thought about inheriting the throne. The reason why
I want to suppress the rebellion is just for the stability of Xiliang.”
