Chapter 72 Send protons! One is not enough, send two

The tyrant emperor glanced at the queen and Tianbao and asked them to wait in the inner hall.

Zhang Fujin then excitedly leaned over to the emperor's ear and said, "Prince Jing said that Daqi no longer mentions the marriage, and now they only want to invite Princess Yongle, the lucky star, to visit Daqi..."

The tyrant emperor hadn't heard the whole thing yet, his brows trembling with anger: "What's the difference?! After all, you're still trying to snatch my sweet baby from me. No! I won't agree!"

Zhang Fujin licked his dry lips. He had been accompanying the emperor everywhere today, and hadn't even had time to drink a sip of water. "Your Majesty, Prince Jing said that it's a good thing that Daqi is willing to relent. Putting aside the marriage for now, since you're inviting the princess as a guest, it wouldn't be a bad idea for Your Majesty to bring her back in a year or two."

The emperor's eyes were bloodshot. "Bullshit! Isn't Daqi's request to let Tianbao be a hostage? Absolutely not! Tell Prince Jing to continue negotiating with them. I can agree to send hostages. If one isn't enough, I'll send two. My daughter must stay!"

Zhang Fujin looked at the tyrant sadly for a long time, then nodded heavily.

The negotiations lasted for a full seven days. The people in Xijing City were unable to leave the city, and no one outside the city could enter. The people gradually became restless from their initial ecstasy.

Both General Piqi and Prince Gong were seriously injured. The Nanqiao Kingdom now does not even have a capable general. Even if the foolish monarch wanted to resist, he would be unable to do so.

I don’t know who leaked the news, but as long as Princess Yongle goes to visit Daqi, the Daqi army will immediately retreat and keep Nanqiao peaceful forever!

On this day, no one knew who started it, but the bustling Suzaku Street was filled with common people, all chanting in unison: "Princess Yongle is here to pray! May Nanqiao live in peace! Princess Yongle is here to pray! May Nanqiao live in peace!"

The cheers were deafening and growing louder and louder, as the number of ordinary people joining in the shouting only increased.

The atmosphere was so intense that it seemed as if the common people would storm into the palace and rebel if the tyrant emperor refused to hand over Princess Yongle.

“Bang!”

"Bang!"

In the Lingxiao Palace, the tyrant emperor threw things to the ground, his bloodshot eyes raging with bloodthirsty murderous intent: "Every one of them has rebelled! Bao Pingyuan, call Bao Pingyuan over, and kill them all!"

"Your Majesty! You absolutely cannot do this!" Zhang Fujin's legs trembled with fear, and he knelt on the debris. "Prince Jing asked this old servant to constantly warn Your Majesty. If Your Majesty continues to kill, the Daqi outside the city will have a legitimate reason to attack. Your Majesty, please calm down!"

The tyrant emperor closed his eyes and took a deep breath. What should he do...

Outside the city gate, little Qin Huo was wearing armor and riding on horseback. The originally androgynous and handsome boy had transformed into an extraordinarily handsome young man, and his resolute eyebrows suppressed his feminine beauty.

He rode his horse and slowly came to the side of Prince Jing, slightly raised the right corner of his lips, and smiled wickedly and arrogantly, but his eyes were cold and reserved: "Prince Jing, long time no see."

"You..." Prince Jing was stunned when he saw that stunning face.

It turns out this brat is not mute...

He was absolutely certain that this young man was the "Fairy Sister" who had been held hands by Tian Bao all day long five years ago. Thinking of the time when he and Princess Jing forced the young man to wear women's clothes, his heart shuddered violently.

The young boy dismounted and took out a letter from his bosom and handed it over: "Please, Prince Jing, help me deliver this letter to Tianbao. Five years ago, Prince Jing and Tianbao saved me. I will do my best to take care of her in the future."

"I?" Prince Jing was shocked again.

As far as he knew, the crown prince of Daqi was not the handsome young man in front of him, and since he could call himself "Gu", there was only one possibility: he had been crowned king.

Qin Huo's lips curled slightly, and he smiled wickedly: "I am the Regent of Daqi, isn't it known to King Jing?"

Prince Jing was shocked again. He knew that the tyrant Daqi had appointed a regent last year, and he wondered why the healthy tyrant did this. It turned out that the regent was actually a little prince?

Seeing that Prince Jing remained silent, Qin Huo suddenly straightened his expression and said, "Don't worry, I won't let Tianbao get hurt when we get to Daqi."

Prince Jing suppressed his panic and twitched his lips weakly, "No matter how powerful Your Majesty is, he is not greater than Emperor Daqi. How can you be so confident?"

Qin Huo raised his chin slightly. Although he was not much taller than Prince Jing on the four-wheeled carriage, Prince Jing felt a sense of oppression as if he was being looked down upon.

A faint smile crossed Qin Huo's lips, and he didn't reply.

But King Jing saw the answer from his face: You shouldn't question me.

It was incredible that the tyrant could appoint him as regent at such a young age, and he really shouldn't question it.

After Qin Huo climbed onto his horse, Prince Jing tightened the letter in his hand and bowed to Qin Huo on horseback: "Then I'll leave it to you."

After that, he stopped trying to mediate and went to the palace in person with the letter...

Lewan Palace.

Tianbao vaguely heard the shouts outside the palace, which continued and repeated over and over again.

She couldn't hear clearly what they were shouting, but the fact that the shouts could reach Lewan Palace was incredible! So she started asking questions from the Second Prince, but the result was the opposite of what she had hoped for; no one would tell her the truth.

The anxious and worried queen led her into the inner hall.

Half an hour later, Tianbao came out with red and swollen eyes and went straight to Lingxiao Palace.

At that time, the foolish emperor and Prince Jing had just finished secretly reading the letter that Qin Huo asked Prince Jing to pass on.

There was nothing excessive in the letter. It simply told Tianbao that he was from Daqi and that she was welcome to visit Daqi and not to be afraid.

Not afraid?

Haha, the two old men looked at each other and smiled bitterly, looking haggard.

As soon as Tian Bao entered the room, she bowed respectfully to the emperor and said, "Father, I beg you to come to Daqi as a guest."

Her voice trembled as she said this.

If she went to Daqi, she would be living under someone else's roof. It would be far from the comfort of her own home in Nanqiao. Whether it would be a blessing or a curse was uncertain. If she really encountered danger, she would only be able to cry out to heaven and earth for help.

But what she didn't want even more was to see her parents, who had spoiled her until she was seven, get hurt.

She is not that righteous. In fact, she is also afraid of death. But if she has to choose between risking herself and risking all her relatives, she can only choose the former.

The foolish emperor said without hesitation: "No! I am negotiating with Daqi and sending a hostage there. What are you, a girl, going there for? Those people in Daqi are all wolves!"

How could his little white rabbit daughter deal with those wolves?

Tianbao did not argue with the tyrant. She knelt down silently, kowtowed three times to him respectfully, and said goodbye with her eyes.

The tyrant suddenly trembled violently all over, as if half of his heart was missing. He watched his daughter turn around and leave without saying a word.

Tianbao has grown up, and the tyrant king has never been able to stop the decisions she makes.

For example, raising a golden eagle, and learning martial arts with Wang Tianyu.

A moment later, the Third Prince calmly arrived at the throne room and knelt down. Facing the astonished gazes of the tyrant emperor and Prince Jing, he spoke firmly, "Father, please appoint me as Crown Prince immediately."
