Strategy? I'm at full level and criticizing like crazy, taming sickly villains

Jiang Li was not surprised at all by Luo Qing's words.

Because Luo Qing would come to her, she was the one who guided him.

After reaching an agreement with Lu Zhan that day, she told Lu Zhan that she was going to bring the Liang Kingdom envoy into the situation.

However, if he took the initiative, he would be at a disadvantage, so Jiang Li chose to let Lu Zhan act as bait to lure Luo Qing to come over and ask for her cooperation.

As for how to do it, it's actually very simple.

Luo Qing originally investigated Luo Bin's death and found Lu Zhan, but Lu Zhan was tight-lipped and did not let Luo Qing get the news she wanted.

Lu Zhan remained tight-lipped after that, and only in an "accident" did he paradoxically reveal that Jiang Li knew the inside story.

Luo Qing wanted to avenge her sister, so naturally she would not let go of this clue. Didn't she take the initiative to send it to her door?

Jiang Li poured two cups of tea slowly and pushed one cup to Luo Qing, "What kind of deal can Ms. Xiao ask me for? I'm just an ordinary princess. I may not have what you want."

Luo Qing didn't touch the cup of tea, just stared at Jiang Li, "No, you must have it."

She looked into Jiang Li's eyes and said slowly, "You know the real culprit behind Luo Bin's death, right?"

Under Luo Qing's gaze, Jiang Li paused slightly, and his expression changed slightly, but she quickly covered it up.

"What is Ms. Xiao talking about? Didn't Luo Bi accidentally fall into the water and die? What is the real culprit behind the scenes?"

For a smart person like Luo Qing, the more Jiang Li conceals and denies it, the more it means she knows the truth.

So her eyes showed enthusiasm, "You don't have to deny it, I know you won't tell me easily, so... you might as well listen to my bargaining chip."

Luo Qing will look into Jiang Li's eyes, "To tell you the truth, even though King Donglin seems to be defending you now, in fact he has never flatly rejected our princess at all."

"Compared to you, he will get more things by marrying our country of Liang. Do you think...will he be moved?"

Jiang Li twitched his lips, "If he is such a treacherous person, you have tried your best to win him over and make sure it is really for Meng Wanwan, okay?"

Luo Qing said calmly, "You don't have to sow discord. As a royal princess, she cannot escape the fate of marriage. At most, she can just choose someone who is more comfortable with her on this basis."

"As for whether she is sincere or not... who cares? Anyway, as long as she is the princess, even if he wants to betray her, he doesn't dare to do anything to the princess."

Jiang Li looked at her, "You think very clearly, but I don't think your princess may think so, otherwise there would be no need for me to make you angry with just a few words."

Luo Qing paused, then said expressionlessly, "It doesn't matter whether she thinks so. You just need to know that as long as we think about it, we don't know who the King of Donglin will be in the end."

"Princess Changrong, I heard that your emperor is not very satisfied with the matter between you and King Donglin. So do you think he will be more biased towards us in this matter?"

"If you don't want to see that happen, it's easiest just to work with me."

She stared at Jiang Li word by word, "As long as you tell me the truth about Luo Bin's death, I guarantee that Meng Wanwan will never take advantage of King Donglin again. Is this enough bargaining chip?"

Jiang Li laughed immediately, "After talking for a long time, you thought I would be afraid of Meng Wanwan?"

She waved her hands and said, "No, I think it would be nice to have Meng Wanwan show up."

"If Qin Jue has other thoughts because of this, it will allow me to see his true face. I have to thank her for taking someone away from such a half-hearted man, so why would I want to stop him?"

"You've been talking for a long time, and I thought you were going to come up with some shocking bargaining chip, but the result...is this?"

Jiang Li yawned, "If this is the only sincerity, then Ms. Xiao should go back as soon as possible and don't waste my time."

Luo Qing choked, not expecting her to have such an attitude.

It seems like... you really don't care about Qin Jue at all?

But obviously what she found out was that Jiang Li liked Qin Jue very much, and because of his disobedience to the queen, he contradicted Emperor Qing. I heard that he was beaten for it.

Why does it seem like she doesn't care much about Qin Jue now?

Are you pretending to be calm to show her, or do you really not care?

Luo Qing was hesitant in her heart, but she couldn't tell anything from Jiang Li's expression.

After a moment of silence, she had to speak again, "It's okay if Princess Changrong doesn't like this condition. I can give you something more affordable."

"Three thousand taels of silver, how about buying you some news?"

Jiang Li smiled and said, "I am indeed short of money, but what I am short of is not three thousand taels."

Luo Qing frowned, "It's just a piece of news. Three thousand taels is already a sky-high price. How much more do you want?"

"Forget it, it seems like you can't come up with anything more exciting to me."

Jiang Li was a little disappointed, thinking that the heroine might have some kind of treasure in her hands, so he listened to her patiently.

In the end, it’s either men or money, which is really uncreative.

"It's better not to waste my time, I'll just say it."

"I have two conditions. First, I don't want money, but I want ten shops in prosperous areas of the capital."

Luo Qing frowned, "We are from the Liang Kingdom. Where did we get our shop in the capital of Qing Kingdom?"

Jiang Li smiled and said, "Ms. Xiao may not have it, but your Lord God of War must have it."

Luo Qing stopped talking and seemed to be considering the feasibility.

After a moment of silence, she asked again, "What about the second condition?"

"The second one, I won't tell you until you agree to the first one."

Luo Qing originally wanted to consider it all, but now she had no choice. After thinking for a moment, she had to give the answer immediately.

"Yes, as long as your second request is not too much, I agree to the first one."

Jiang Li raised his eyebrows, "Don't you have to ask your prince?"

"No need. Since I'm here to find you, I can make the decision entirely."

"It's great!" Jiang Li nodded with satisfaction, "My second condition is... after you know the mastermind behind this, you must continue to cooperate with me."

Luo Qing was stunned, "What do you mean?"

"It means -" Jiang Li raised the corners of his lips, "What a coincidence, your enemy also has some issues with me. If you want to take revenge, I'm afraid it won't be enough on your own. We can win-win cooperation and it will be good for everyone."

The reason why she said this is of course because Luo Qing was unable to take revenge in the original work.

On the contrary, she almost died in the Qing Kingdom. Thanks to the male protagonist Meng Yuanzhou, who risked his life to save her, he successfully led her to escape from the Qing Kingdom.

And this is one of the reasons why the heroine desires power and always thinks about destroying the Qing Kingdom.

But even though she couldn't do it herself, it didn't mean that Luo Qing couldn't help in this matter.

Therefore, it is still necessary to win her over.

But after hearing Jiang Li's words, Luo Qing suddenly became alert, "Are you lying to me? Are you trying to borrow a knife to kill someone?"
