"Why not?" Qian Yeming said sternly, "Father, you are the ruler of a country after all. Although the military strength of South Vietnam is not as strong as that of other countries, at least Father now controls a country, right?
Think about the Northern Wei Dynasty. When the three Baili brothers drove the Divine Cult out of the Northern Wei Dynasty, they were only in their teens. Are you, Father, even worse than a teenager? In my opinion, the Divine Cult is nothing but a trick. Haven't the three Baili brothers led their people through all these years?
"I..." Although he said this, he felt weak in the knees when he thought about actually confronting the Divine Religion.
"Although the three Baili brothers were young back then, the people of Northern Wei were tough and sturdy. Furthermore, with the foundation laid by the previous emperor, most people did not believe in the Divine Religion. But it's different in Nanyue! If there were a palace coup, could these Nanyue soldiers withstand the attack of the Divine Religion? Don't forget, Murong Qingyu still has hundreds of thousands of elite soldiers at his disposal."
"If Father is afraid, he can seek an alliance."
"Alliance?" Emperor Dezheng frowned. "Who?"
"Northern Wei!"
Emperor Dezheng said thoughtfully, "Northern Wei and the Divine Cult have always been at odds, so we could test their luck. But I'm afraid Northern Wei won't be willing to side with Nanyue. You know, while the three Baili brothers are incredibly ruthless, they won't do anything without profit. Now that the Divine Cult has given up on Northern Wei and compromised with them, there's no need for them to help Nanyue."
"Why not? What the Northern Wei lacks most is supplies. We can exchange supplies for the Northern Wei's troops. I believe the Northern Wei will agree."
Emperor Dezheng was silent for a moment, then asked, "Ming'er, are you willing to go to Northern Wei in person?"
Qian Yeming and Murong Xiao raised their lips at the same time: "No need to go, Prince Gan is at my son's residence."
"What did you say?" Emperor Dezheng's eyes lit up, and he immediately asked Qian Yeming to sit next to him and began to discuss in detail.
*****************The dispute over the throne******************
The moonlight is spreading and the sky is full of stars.
The cold winter of Nanyue had passed, and spring had arrived in the blink of an eye. All things came back to life, and the spring breeze rustled the flowers and plants, filling the entire city of Jinling with a light, fragrant scent of flowers and plants.
The night in Jinling City is full of indescribable tenderness.
Walking on the well-arranged streets and feeling the breeze with the fragrance of flowers will make people feel refreshed unconsciously.
In addition, as the time for the Five Nations Chamber of Commerce is getting closer, more and more envoys and wealthy businessmen from the five nations have arrived in Jinling City, making the already bustling Jinling even more vibrant.
Teahouses and taverns entertained guests all night long, and from time to time, the singing of singing girls and the laughter of spectators could be heard. Life was spent drinking, leisurely, without any trouble, and extremely peaceful.
This prosperous imperial capital, at all times, possesses a unique beauty. The winding moat is crystal clear, and the peach trees planted along its banks exude fragrance. The water flows gently, shimmering in the water, reflecting the starry sky.
Several luxurious dragon boats drifted slowly on the wide river, and the sound of pipa and laughter could be heard from time to time.
The nights of early spring are so intoxicating that one cannot help but linger.
However, this extravagant and beautiful night scene came to an abrupt end when it extended from Chenpu to Prince Cheng’s Mansion.
Although there was only a high wall separating them, the laughter and joy outside Prince Cheng's mansion formed a sharp contrast with the extremely low pressure inside the mansion.
If it was early spring outside the mansion, then it was winter inside, the kind of winter that could almost freeze people into ice!
