Lu Chen continued, “The other tribes of the SA family might not be loyal to the king of Xiliang. They must have been eyeing the throne of Xiliang for a long time. It’s just that they didn’t want to be the first to rebel.
“That’s why the Regent agreed to help the king of Huai take the throne. That way, he can control these troops!”
Qiao jinniang said, “West Liang is actually just a pile of loose sand. Isn’t the regent afraid that the troops of West Liang won’t be able to reach Chang ‘an and might not even be able to defeat the troops of Yunzhou?”
Lu Chen said, “That’s why the Huai King wants to use Xu Mingshuang. Other than Xu Mingshuang, perhaps he has another chess piece. Even if the troops of West Liang can’t defeat the troops of the Qiao family of Yunzhou, they can still hold back the troops of the Qiao family and give the troops of the northern desert a chance to attack Chang ‘an.”
