Mr. Feng sighed, worriedly saying: "With the other side like this, I'm afraid the nobles dare not defy them."
Xu Wenyan's expression was indifferent: "On the surface, they don't defy, but that doesn't mean they won't exert themselves behind the scenes. Conversely, the greater the pressure the court's henchmen put on the nobles, the more nervous and worried the noble factions become, fearing that once the Eight Princes are dealt with, their turn will come. As long as this fear exists, there will definitely be those more willing to see the peace talks succeed. The more princes there are left, the thinner the imperial power, and the Empress will pull them more, thus their position will be more secure. Conversely, once the external enemies are cleared, they become unimportant. Don't worry, the visits still need to be made, the timid ones we ignore, and the bolder ones will surely make contact with us."
