It is reported that the 24 heads of state attending the meeting unanimously agreed that the entire world faces a deadly threat...

A broader and deeper alliance will be built to meet the tough challenges of the future...

According to the principle of one person, one vote, His Majesty Lin Hai, Emperor of the Qinghe Empire, was elected as the leader of the alliance and will lead us...

The heads of state of the world's major powers have all expressed their full support for the alliance's operations. The alliance has in fact already possessed supreme power beyond national borders...

The conference spokesperson, Her Royal Highness Shi Zhener, Empress of the Qinghe Empire, Minister of Education, and Vice President of Qinghe College, did not specify the specific nature of the so-called threat...

The summit meeting is temporarily adjourned, and a joint meeting of the main ministers from all continental countries will be held afterwards...

"I say, is this really that good-looking?"

Lin Hai, who was devouring his snacks, glanced at Xia Junao and said, "Isn't it just the Qinghe Propaganda Department's official bulletin? Don't you have any?"

"Hmm... Mr. Lin misunderstood. Everyone has official reports, but it's rare to find one written in this style. So why do the things your people write seem so different?"

After getting to know each other better, Xia Junao finally relaxed a little in front of Lin Hai, so he didn't put down the newspaper, but just answered while reading it.

"Of course, I taught him personally. Talent like this can't be found simply by searching; we must cultivate it ourselves. But then again, even if the styles of the official reports vary from family to family, the content is similar. Do you think such careful attention is useful?"

"I'm just curious. There were clearly 25 heads of state in attendance, but in the end, they told everyone that only 24 heads of state participated in the vote, and they didn't say where the last one went. Wouldn't anyone have any doubts?"

Xia Junao asked from behind the newspaper.

"The literacy rate in your Great Liang Empire is less than 3%, right? Qinghe has been working hard to eradicate illiteracy over the years, but there are still a large number of illiterate people. Who do you think will read these court reports after they are sent out?"

"you mean?"

"The first people to see the official bulletin must have been court officials, followed by scholars, those with a certain degree of political awareness or interest in politics. Do you think they would ask such a question? Anyone with a discerning eye knows what's going on here, right? Besides, there's a notice on the back of the bulletin stating 'Wishing the Daliang Empire Army victory in its campaign against the barbarians.' Wouldn't someone connect the dots?"

Lin Hai was speechless. Xia Junao was not the kind of person who would even ask such a question.

"Speaking of which, why would you ask such a question? It's not something you should do given your level."

Lin Hai asked in confusion.

"Yes, of course I know the inside story, but what else can I do besides reading the newspaper?" Xia Junao put the newspaper down abruptly and pointed at Lin Hai's side. "Mr. Lin, it's okay that you're in my carriage, but where did these people come from? Don't they have a carriage?"

Xin Yue, who was sitting on the left side of Lin Hai and making tea, suddenly squeezed back. After all, anyone sitting in front of Wei Mingyuan would feel cramped. But Chen Xu, who was on the right side of Lin Hai, was much more relaxed. He didn't listen to the conversation between the two at all, but was holding a pair of scissors and carefully trimming the flowers and plants on the car - they had almost finished trimming them, and if they trimmed any more they would be completely bald.

After Chen Xu cut off the last branch of a pot of orchids that were said to be extinct, he suddenly realized something was wrong. He quickly put down the scissors and looked up at Xia Junao and said:

"Xia Junao, we're all members of the alliance now. What's wrong with riding in your car? The principle of equality within the alliance was established by Mr. Lin. You know that."

"Did you just cut the orchid to death? You should know that this is the last one in the world!"

Xia Junao's eyes almost popped out, but luckily he didn't. Otherwise, it would have been difficult for the people present to explain to the subjects of the Daliang Empire what their emperor had experienced in the car.

"It's just a flower, what's the big deal? You're complaining when I'm riding in your car, and you're complaining when I'm cutting a flower. You're so petty, you don't seem like the head of a great northern country."

Chen Xu didn't care about Xia Junao's reaction at all. They were now allies and couldn't go to war. Even if they had to fight, Qinghe was in charge of the Chen Dynasty's national defense. If you have the guts, go beat Lin Hai.

"Alright, alright, everyone, please stop talking."

Lin Hai quickly took sides.

"They all know the truth now, so they want to discuss it with us anytime. However, their own carriages don't have shielding systems, and there's no time to install temporary ones. It just so happens that your carriage is big enough to fit even Brother Weiming in, so we might as well just use your carriage as a mobile conference room."

"Mr. Lin, you can talk all you want, but don't bring me in. I'm just sitting here quietly, doing nothing and saying nothing."

Wei Mingyuan said unhappily.

Due to his physique, his carriage was the most unique of all the heads of state. Simply put, while other heads of state's carriages were either designed for comfort and luxury, or for safety and exceptional quality, Wei Mingyuan's was solely focused on load capacity. Therefore, on this trip, he rode in a royal carriage converted from a freight wagon...

"Let's get down to business, Mr. Lin. I've always had a question I wanted to ask."

Xin Yuetu, who was standing aside, no longer called Lin Hailin "little brother". After all, facing an old demon who had been here for the past ten thousand years, no one would feel comfortable to take the initiative to call him brother.

"Oh, what's the problem?"

"There are only five of us here, but there are 24 heads of state participating in the vote. You said we all have one vote and everyone is equal. But even though you are the leader, if they unite to oppose you, even if we all support you, it seems we won't be able to win."
