"Your Majesty, you need to calm down. What the Wanfeng Dynasty said may not be true. There is no news about His Royal Highness the Crown Prince yet. With His Royal Highness's skills, it is not certain that anything will happen to him."
"Yes, Your Majesty. The Wanfeng Dynasty is slightly stronger than our Tianling Dynasty. They are provoking us now just to have a legitimate reason to go to war with our Tianling Dynasty."
"Your Majesty, please reconsider this for the sake of the people of the Tianling Dynasty."
In the court of the Tianling Dynasty, several ministers pleaded with Zhang Yu, the emperor of the Tianling Dynasty who was sitting on the throne.
At this moment, Zhang Yu's face was gloomy, and he waved his hand and said.
"The people of the Wanfeng Dynasty have come to my face to provoke me. Is it wrong for me to fight back? Hao'er is just a fuse. Even without Hao'er, the Wanfeng Dynasty would have gone to war sooner or later. It's just a matter of time."
"But Your Majesty, even if we want to start a war, it will take time to prepare the army. Moreover, if our Tianling Dynasty starts the war first, it will not be justified in theory."
At this moment, the commander-in-chief of the army stood up and bowed his head.
Hearing this, Zhang Yu took a deep breath, suppressed his inner anger, and spoke slowly.
"General Yu, I wonder how long it will take for the army to be ready?"
"The army is now scattered across the empire. If we don't gather them together, the Tianling Dynasty will undoubtedly be defeated in a war with the Wanfeng Dynasty. And according to the current situation, if the army is to be assembled, it will take at least half a year."
General Yu thought about it carefully and then gave a definite answer.
"Half a year? If that's the case, then let's set half a year as the deadline. If the Wanfeng Dynasty is still causing trouble after half a year, then we'll go to war."
"Also, whether Hao'er is dead or alive, he must be found for me!"
When talking about Zhang Tianhao, Zhang Yu's face was full of anger. Zhang Tianhao was his only son and the crown prince of the entire Tianling Dynasty. If he died at the hands of the Wanfeng Dynasty, it would be a disgrace to the entire Tianling Dynasty if the news got out.
"Yes, Your Majesty!"
All the ministers withdrew one after another, and soon only General Yu and the two prime ministers of the Tianling Dynasty were left in the court.
"His Majesty."
General Yu and the two prime ministers stepped forward and spoke respectfully.
Zhang Yu waved his hand and said calmly.
"Alright, there's no need to dwell on irrelevant matters. Why do you think the Wanfeng Dynasty would provoke our Tianling Dynasty? After all, our two dynasties used to have a very good relationship."
Ten years ago, the relationship between the Tianling Dynasty and the Wanfeng Dynasty was quite good. However, the turning point in the relationship occurred ten years ago. For some unknown reason, the emperor of the Wanfeng Dynasty suddenly changed his temperament and became warlike.
Since then, the relationship between the Tianling Dynasty and the Wanfeng Dynasty has become cold, but it has not yet led to war.
Until some time ago, people under the Wanfeng Dynasty massacred a village belonging to the Tianling Dynasty at the border of the two dynasties, but this news was suppressed by Zhang Yu and did not spread. Otherwise, the entire Tianling Dynasty would have started a riot long ago.
"Your Majesty, there has never been any sudden change. Perhaps Li Changsheng had been pretending to be kind before, but ten years ago he didn't want to pretend anymore, and it just became his nature."
General Yu shook his head and said calmly that he had seen some people who liked to pretend to have other personalities, but without exception, after pretending for a period of time, they would not be able to suppress their nature and would return to the way they were most comfortable.
The left prime minister Zhao Gongming performed the ceremony.
"Your Majesty, no matter what, the Wanfeng Dynasty has made it this far now, and it's not certain that things won't get worse in the future. We still need to prepare as soon as possible."
"I second the motion."
Right Prime Minister Lu Guan said the same thing.
"Alas, I understand. If we have no other choice, we can only choose to go to war."
Zhang Yu sighed and said, but at this moment he thought of something and said with a very complicated expression on his face.
"Do you think Hao'er is still alive?"
"Your Majesty, please forgive me for speaking frankly, but it's unlikely that His Royal Highness is still alive. After all, the Wanfeng Dynasty sent their most elite Divine Archery Battalion. It's said that every archer there can shoot a single arrow through a hundred miles. This is a surprise attack, and since the Wanfeng Dynasty dared to spread the news, it's likely that they have succeeded. So please accept my condolences, Your Majesty."
General Yu shook his head and sighed.
"I know, but I just want to keep a thought in my mind. As long as I don't see Hao'er's body, then Hao'er won't be considered dead. But Hao'er is the only thought Nan Nan left me. If Hao'er is gone, what should I do?"
Zhang Yu said with a sad face. At this moment, he was not crying as the emperor of Tianling Dynasty, but as a man in his forties who had lost his wife and might have lost his only child.
But General Yu and the left and right prime ministers all sighed and did not comfort His Majesty, letting him cry for a while.
After a while, Zhang Yu calmed down and said seriously.
"In short, don't publicize this matter for now. If the people below knew that Hao'er was silenced by the Wanfeng Dynasty, they would inevitably start a war early, which would not be a good outcome for our Tianling Dynasty."
"Yes, Your Majesty."
…
On the other hand, in the Tiandi Sect, Zhang Tianhao didn’t know that because of him, his father was ready to go to war with the Wanfeng Dynasty.
At this time, Zhang Tianhao looked at the milky white pool in front of him and spoke hesitantly.
"Master, are you really going to let me go? Why does this liquid feel like (something indescribable)?"
Wu Hao on the side waved his hand and said.
"Just go down. These are all spiritual liquids, which are great tonics for cultivation. Even those in the Tribulation Crossing Stage can't use them. Otherwise, do you want to be expelled from my sect in a month?"
Hearing Wu Hao's words, Zhang Tianhao couldn't help but shudder. In order not to be expelled from the sect in a month, and for the sect he wanted to pursue, he had to overcome his fear.
Thinking of this, Zhang Tianhao slowly took off his clothes, leaving only a pair of shorts, and then he stepped forward with the determination to die.
In just a moment, Zhang Tianhao froze in place, and then he jumped directly into the spirit pool in front of him, because the feeling in the spirit pool was really, too refreshing! PS: Life is not easy, the author is selling misery, begging for gifts. ▄█?█● Kneeling down ▄█?█● Kneeling down
