Xiao Yunhao spoke lightly,
"I share your words. However, wars arise from many causes, and are not the fault of just one party.
This king also hopes to end this dispute as soon as possible, but your country must show sufficient sincerity."
Cong Chongqiu looked at Xiao Yunhao in surprise, pursed his lips and repeated what he said in his mind.
Wow, it turns out he’s the only one who’s not good at speaking.
The words of the King of Zhenbei were quite official, with a bit of the flavor of a military advisor.
"Of course." The envoy nodded and said, "Our country would like to first express its sincerity and propose that both sides cease military operations and that the King of Zhenbei withdraw his troops to... New Moon City in order to restore peace.
Our country is willing to marry our second prince to the King of Zhenbei, so as to forge a friendly relationship between the two countries, put an end to the war, and seek peace together."
"The Second Prince of our country is of noble status and virtuous character. He will surely become a good daughter-in-law for the King of Zhenbei and enhance the friendship between our two countries."
As he spoke, the envoy took out the portrait from his arms and respectfully presented it to Xiao Yunhao.
He didn't know where the Yongchang Kingdom came from, so he could only suggest that they retreat back to Xinyue City.
It is estimated that the Yongchang Kingdom was just a new country name created by the Prince of Zhenbei and General Cong in order to rebel.
Cong Chongqiu looked at the envoy, the corners of his mouth twitching slightly.
The Second Prince! !?
Bullshit! ?
It is true that the second prince is a dragon girl, but she is only 14 years old.
Moreover, he didn't see any virtue in the Second Prince's cunning and domineering character.
Besides, the Prince of Zhenbei has a princess, who is pregnant at the moment.
Are you sure that the envoy is not shooting himself in the foot by coming to propose marriage at this time?
Xiao Yunhao's hand that was knocking on the chair suddenly stopped, and his eyes were fixed on the envoy.
What the hell!!!
After all this time, they finally arranged a marriage for him. They were trying to trick him.
What kind of prince is so prestigious that he can give up so much sincerity? The empress really thinks too highly of herself.
Xiao Yunhao looked at the album presented by the envoy and wanted to roll his eyes speechlessly.
The woman in the album looks quite young and obviously not yet of marriageable age.
"It seems that your country's empress has no sincerity at all."
Xiao Yunhao sneered at the envoy and threw the album in his hand at him.
"Go tell your Majesty that I have decided on the Xiliang Kingdom."
"Ouch~" The envoy was hit in the face by the picture album. He cried out in pain and couldn't help but take two steps back.
Looking at the angry King of Zhenbei, the envoy quickly took out a brocade box from his arms.
"Please calm down, King Zhenbei. Our country will also give you a national treasure."
"Please, King Zhenbei, take a closer look."
The envoy endured the pain on his face and carefully presented the brocade box.
Xiao Yunhao glanced at the envoy and opened the exquisite brocade box.
The envoy breathed a sigh of relief after watching the King of Zhenbei open the brocade box, and quickly began to introduce.
"This is the Phoenix Dancing Dragon Bracelet, also known as the Jade Dragon Bracelet."
"There is only one Jade Dragon Bracelet in the entire Xiliang Kingdom, and it is currently in the hands of the King of Zhenbei."
"This jade dragon bracelet is a dazzling treasure, like a phoenix dancing on a dragon's wrist, emitting magnificent light."
"The dragon pattern on the bracelet is majestic yet graceful. It is carved from very precious jade, and every line is carefully polished by the craftsmen."
"Wearing a Jade Dragon Bracelet is like being immersed in the power of the dragon. It is not just a piece of jewelry, but also a symbol of strength, nobility and good luck." (Jade Dragon Bracelet)
Shang Lu listened to the envoy's exaggerated praise and squinted his eyes at the brocade box in Xiao Yunhao's hand.
The moment she saw the jade dragon bracelet, she felt that this bracelet was very suitable for her ancestor.
"Not bad." Xiao Yunhao raised the corner of his mouth and said lightly.
The envoy was stunned for a moment, and the corners of his mouth rose slightly, "As long as the King of Zhenbei likes it."
"As for the withdrawal..."
I originally thought that the war could be resolved through marriage.
After all, it is a small country that has just risen. It should be grateful to be able to marry the second prince of Xiliang.
The Jade Dragon Bracelet was given to him by His Majesty as a precaution. If the marriage alliance fails to impress the King of Zhenbei, then the Jade Dragon Bracelet will be given to him as a gift.
What good things could a newly rising small country have seen? Once they see the Jade Dragon Bracelet, they will definitely agree to withdraw their troops.
Sure enough, everything was as Your Majesty expected, and King Zhenbei was indeed very satisfied when he saw the Jade Dragon Bracelet.
"Ha!" Xiao Yunhao closed the brocade box and sneered at the envoy.
"Since your Majesty has no sincerity, there is no need to negotiate further."
"This jade dragon bracelet is used to buy your life."
"Go back and tell your Majesty that I have come to take the sword of the day."
No matter how beautiful the bracelet is, it cannot compare to the sword given to him by the God-King.
But my fourth brother’s wife will definitely like this jade dragon bracelet, so keep it.
There is no point in sending back something you have already obtained. Besides, sooner or later, the things in Xiliang Kingdom will belong to my fourth brother's wife.
The envoy looked at Xiao Yunhao in astonishment, "!!!?"
No....No way!!?
How could his life be compared to the Jade Dragon Bracelet?
This jade dragon bracelet is truly a priceless treasure.
It seems that all he said was in vain.
The items were received, but the negotiation failed! ?
What else is the sword of the day?
The envoy looked at Xiao Yunhao in bewilderment, and opened his trembling lips.
"Zhen...Zhenbei King, please don't refuse a toast and drink a penalty."
"Our country has a million cavalrymen, and when the time comes..."
"Show it to me when the time comes." Xiao Yunhao waved his hand.
"Send the envoy away."
"If you say another word of nonsense, I'll kill you!"
The envoy looked at the murderous King of Zhenbei with horror, and his heart was shocked.
Too crazy.
This is why the soldiers of Xiliang State are scattered across the border, otherwise these people would not have the place to be so arrogant.
I really thought he came to make peace.
He only came here on behalf of His Majesty to delay these enemy rebels so that the soldiers on the border could return to the imperial city in time and defeat these enemy troops.
The envoy trembled his lips twice, and under the pressure of Xiao Yunhao's eyes, he swallowed the words in his heart.
All the guards who came with him to negotiate were stopped outside the city gate.
There was no one around him to help him. If he angered King Zhenbei, he would be really dead.
After watching the envoy being dragged away, Cong Chongqiu looked at the brocade box in Xiao Yunhao's hand with a hint of curiosity on his face.
"How ridiculous! How can a dragon jade bracelet be so prestigious?"
"Who are you looking down on?"
After fighting for so long, we were only two cities away from attacking the imperial city, but they wanted them to withdraw just by giving them a jade bracelet.
This means they are not taken seriously at all.
If they are sincere, then they will definitely give all the land, compensation, money and jewelry.
Who would expect people to withdraw their troops just by sending a savage prince and a jade bracelet?
Xiao Yunhao pulled the corner of his lips and said lightly,
"Seeking peace is fake, delaying time is real."
