About ten minutes passed, and then a long and boring song and dance ended.
Xie Daoxun still took the initiative to speak.
She put down her chopsticks and slowly picked up the wine glass.
"Your Majesty, the letter from the Kingdom of Wu has already been delivered. This time I am personally here as an envoy to Dagan with great goodwill."
"I hope that Your Majesty will agree to our request and pass on to us the method of manufacturing the thunder bomb."
"In this way, we can avoid war and everyone will be happy, right?"
"I hope Your Majesty will consider this carefully for the sake of the world and the people."
Jiang Wan'er's face still didn't look good, and her eyes fell on Xie Daoxun.
Immediately, Youyou said: "What the Prime Minister said makes sense. I wonder if the Prime Minister has anything else to teach me?"
Upon hearing this, Xie Daoxun hurriedly bowed slightly and said, "I dare not, but I have something to say to Your Majesty."
Jiang Wan'er nodded slightly: "Prime Minister, please speak."
Xie Daoxun said, "Your Majesty, Dagan is located in a place that is surrounded by enemies and has been attacked by barbarians for many years."
"The Chu State and the Rongdi in the south are also eyeing us covetously."
"Only the east and west sides are relatively safe."
"Because our Wu and Shu countries, as well as the Yue country to the east, are not warlike countries."
“And Da Gan’s energy has always been tied down by the northern wilderness.”
“That allowed us to maintain balance and peace for a long time.”
"But now, after the battle in Mubei City last year, the Savage Army lost nearly 200,000 men, and there is no trace of the Savage King's Court in the south of the desert."
"This is certainly a huge victory for Dagan, and it is also the happiest event in many years."
"But, on the other hand, Dagan's military fortune is booming, and now he has a world-destroying weapon like the Thunder Bomb."
"It broke the already unstable balance."
"Especially the Chu State over there, they can no longer sit still."
"After learning about the battle in Mubei City, they joined forces with Rongdi and took frequent actions."
"Because they have a feud with Da Gan."
"So it is very clear that as long as the drought eases, we must move south."
“Even, expanding to the east and west.”
"Plus, Da Gan has the thunder bomb. I'm afraid that by then, no one will be able to resist Da Gan's offensive."
"And this is also what our Wu Kingdom is worried about."
"To be honest, our Wu Kingdom does not want to go to war with Da Gan."
“Because we know it deeply.”
"Even if we have Nanchu and Rongdi, we will have to pay a heavy price to have a chance of winning."
“It’s just a possibility.”
"But we have no choice but to do this, because the thunder bomb invented by Da Gan is too terrifying."
"We must not give Dagan time to relax."
"Therefore, no matter how unwilling you are, you have to do this."
"I think both your majesty and the gentlemen present here are very clear about this."
"In the final analysis, everything is caused by the thunder."
"So, as long as Da Gan is willing to hand over the method of making thunder bombs to our Wu Kingdom."
"We, the Wu Kingdom, promise that we will never use military force against Da Gan. Not only that, if the Chu Kingdom is stubborn and unyielding."
"We can help Da Gan and deal with the Chu army together."
"In this way, the danger of the Great Gan will be resolved immediately, and from now on, we can maintain a balance between our countries."
"There can still be lasting peace."
"I wonder what your Majesty thinks?"
Jiang Wan'er nodded and said, "What the Prime Minister said was sincere and heartfelt. I am deeply moved."
"However, the matter of the thunderbolt is a serious matter after all."
"It is definitely not something I can decide alone."
"The Prime Minister doesn't need to worry."
"Give me some time."
"After I have discussed this with the ministers, I will give the Prime Minister a definite answer."
Hearing this, Xie Daoxun nodded and said, "It should be so. I just hope Your Majesty can make a decision as soon as possible."
"Procrastination will not solve the problem."
Jiang Wan'er said quietly, "Of course. The current situation does not allow me to delay any further."
"Don't worry, Prime Minister. I will give you a result soon."
Just then, an unfriendly voice suddenly sounded unexpectedly.
"Your Excellency, Prime Minister, the State of Wu has really made a good plan by making the blackmail sound so justified!"
Everyone looked in the direction of the sound and saw a young man standing up.
It was Zhao Hao.
Seeing this, Jiang Wan'er immediately opened her mouth and scolded, "Zhao Hao, be honest with me. You have no right to speak here."
"Sit back!"
Zhao Hao walked to the center of the hall and bowed to Jiang Wan'er.
"Your Majesty, I just can't stand it. I'm obviously being blackmailed by someone."
"Among all the officials in the court, not a single one dared to speak out."
"Everyone says that we are good at fighting, that our martial arts are flourishing, and that our martial arts are flourishing, but why can't I see that today?"
"Since no one dares to say it, I have no choice but to say it!"
Jiang Wan'er was about to continue to reprimand her when Xie Daoxun asked, "Your Majesty, I wonder who this young man is..."
Jiang Wan'er immediately said with a gloomy face: "He is Zhao Hao, the son of my great internal historian Zhao Wenxiang. He is a kid who only knows how to cause trouble. Because he has just made some contributions, I have just conferred him the title of Wushuang Hou."
As she spoke, she looked at Zhao Hao with unkind eyes and rebuked him, "Zhao Hao, don't cause trouble for me, go back and sit still."
Xie Daoxun's eyes moved, and then unexpectedly he slowly stood up and walked over.
When she came closer, she looked Zhao Hao up and down carefully with her ink-black eyes.
Zhao Hao puffed out his chest and raised his head, with his chin held high, looking like a typical arrogant person.
Let Xie Daoxun look at him.
After a long while, Xie Daoxun said softly, "Is it Zhao Hao who invented the thunder bomb, invented cooking, and invented porcelain?"
Of course, she couldn't be unaware of the matter regarding porcelain.
She knows everything about Zhao Hao.
Zhao Hao did not reply, but asked arrogantly: "Are you Xie Daoxun, the man everyone has heard of who has extraordinary talent?"
Xie Daoxun's eyes moved, and he said softly: "I don't dare to call myself a genius, but I am indeed Xie Daoxun."
Zhao Hao immediately said, "Very good. People all say that you, the Prime Minister of Wu, are extremely talented and are a rare talent that only appears once in five hundred years."
"But I, Zhao Hao, don't believe it!"
Looking at Zhao Hao's expression, Xie Daoxun couldn't help but smile slightly, then nodded gently and said: "It's not credible at all. Lord Zhao is right not to believe it."
Hearing this, Zhao Hao's heart suddenly skipped a beat.
What the hell?
This woman doesn't play by the rules!
Buddy, you are questioning me so arrogantly in front of so many people. Shouldn't your next sentence be, how can you make me believe you?
What do you mean by that?
