Chapter 431 Why don’t you protest verbally?
Finally, the system revealed: [Hehe, actually Ah Ruan is very close. Ding ding ding... it turns water into ice. As long as Ah Ruan puts her hand in the water, she can use this to freeze it. Awesome, right?]
Courtiers: ...
Although this is also very good, it is still far from snowing in June. Alas, my fantasy is in vain.
Yuan Ruan was stunned when he heard this: [Touch water and it will freeze? Wait, it won't be like that again, I can only give a basin of water and a thin layer of ice will form. 】
System: [Of course not, it's better than what Ah Ruan thinks! Let me give you an example, for example, the Third Prince is holding you hostage now.]
The third prince:?
The system continued: [It's a hypothesis! If he kidnaps you, Ah Ruan, you only need to give him a slight cut, and when you touch him, use your magical power, Ah Ruan can freeze all the blood of the Third Prince. The Third Prince will die. Without consuming points to increase power, Ah Ruan can currently freeze ten Third Princes to death at once.]
Yuanruan: [Ah? What about when points are consumed? ]
System: [Very large. One point can freeze to death countless Third Princes in one day.]
The Third Prince: ...
Am I a unit of measurement?
The court officials who had been somewhat disappointed just now immediately became excited after hearing this. This sounded very powerful.
At this time, Yuanruan's inner voice rang out.
Yuanruan: [It’s really good! No need to be afraid of the heat anymore, ice cubes and shaved ice are now stable in summer. ]
The system chuckled: [Is that right? I knew Ah Ruan would like it.]
Courtiers: ...
No, don't waste it!
Especially the Minister of Finance, he looked up at the emperor excitedly: Your Majesty, this is also very useful! As long as the little imperial teacher goes to the rivers of other countries and freezes them, Daxia can make money from the famine in other countries!
The Prince's tutor also looked at the emperor eagerly: Your Majesty! Freeze! This freezing can also be turned into an ice disaster! In other words, Daxia can still use the excuse of acting in the name of justice to go to war!
emperor:……
I am tempted, but considering the current number of troops in Daxia, I cannot move.
The emperor pinched his brows, avoided the gazes of the courtiers, waited for a while, and then announced the adjournment of the court to discuss the matter further.
Of course, after the court session ended, Yuan Ruan left with the Third Prince and his entourage.
The emperor summoned the crown prince, the minister of finance, the minister of war and two prime ministers for a small court meeting.
The content of the meeting is divided into two aspects.
The first aspect.
Send another part of the army secretly to the border between Xia and Chen to help Shijiazi and his men stabilize their current towns. If Shijiazi has the spare capacity, continue to occupy new towns, expand the results of the battle, and at the same time try to occupy the high ground of public opinion.
On this point, everyone quickly reached a consensus.
The second aspect.
The court officials were discussing how to make Yuanruan realize the wonderful use of water droplets turning into ice. It would be best if it could be used to freeze the enemy's rivers and mountains. There was a lot of debate about this point.
Finally, the prince voiced his opposition, not because he sympathized with the enemy, but because he was worried about Yuanruan's status as the country's destiny, and he was afraid that if she interfered too much, she would be tainted with karma such as murder.
This statement successfully silenced the court officials and also allowed the emperor to announce that Yuan Ruan could use his power however he wanted and that he would not interfere.
…
Ten days later, Chen Guo’s top brass went crazy.
They originally thought that after being threatened, Daxia would just verbally condemn them as in the past. But now, they were shocked to find that Xiaguo had changed, pretending to be a white lotus while continuing to capture Chenguo's town.
This sudden change in painting style caught Chen Guo off guard.
The top leaders of the Chen State had to gather together to discuss what to do.
