That’s not even 20%!”
Emperor Dezheng's words made Dongfang Ming hesitate. Returning with 20% of the gold mine was already enough for him. If he gave it away without even notifying them, he wouldn't know if he could keep his position as Crown Prince after returning.
"Brother, that old man must have lied to you. He just wants to put pressure on you so that you'll give up the fight for the gold mine. They have no one left. If you give up, you'll only have 20% of the gold mine. But if you try once, if you win, we can take the gold mine back.
"My dear brother, the difference between you only owning 20% of the gold mine and losing all of it is actually not that great. Once the emperor knows that you kept it a secret, he will hold you accountable. So, you have no choice but to take a gamble and seize all of the gold mines. Only then can you save the situation."
Dongfang Ye's words were a revelation. Dongfang Ming steeled his resolve and said to Emperor Dezheng, "Who says I'm unwilling? This gold mine was originally discovered by me, Dongxiang, and it rightfully belongs to me. Today, I'm going to take a gamble and bet you all the mining rights and ownership of the gold mine!"
"Good!" Emperor Dezheng's eyes lit up as he said, "Prince Dongfang is indeed a man who can accomplish great things!"
Dongfang Ming was slightly stunned by Emperor Dezheng's praise.
Why does he feel like he's been trapped?
In fact, there was nothing wrong with Dongfang Ming's feelings, because when Emperor Dezheng sent Murong Xue out, Dongfang Ming's expression instantly became ugly.
"Emperor of Nanyue, you are the great Nanyue, a great nation. Are all the warriors dead? You always send people from the Murong family, not only that, but you also send all women!"
Emperor Dezheng's heart flew away at the thought of such a vast gold mine, and he didn't bother to argue with Dongfang Ming. He laughed and said, "Not really. Although Murong Xue's surname is Murong, she has long been married to Prince Rui and is his concubine. How could she be from the Marshal's Mansion?"
"You..." Dongfang Ming glared at Dongfang Ye, who had given him such bad advice, and said viciously to Emperor Dezheng, "The Marshal's Office invented that weapon called a spear. It's so fast that even a Daluo Immortal wouldn't be able to dodge it. Aren't you cheating? If you have the guts, challenge my Dongxiang warriors head-on! Do you dare?"
Emperor Dezheng's eyes darkened, and he thought for a moment. Seeing Murong Xue nod to him, he said, "Originally, the competition stipulated that you could bring your own weapons, but since you, Dongxiang, are really afraid of the weapons of South Vietnam, I will agree to your request.
I want to show you whether my great Nanyue can defeat you Dongxiang with just weapons. A woman from my Nanyue can still defeat the most powerful man from your Dongxiang!
"Your Majesty, winning is the most important thing. Why did you agree to Dongxiang's conditions?" Murong Qingyu frowned. He knew Murong Xue's skills well. She couldn't even match Murong Meng. How could she fight against Dongxiang's warriors?
Emperor Dezheng smiled and said, "Don't worry, my dear Murong. Prince Rui's concubine is your daughter. You must trust her."
After saying that, he winked at Murong Xue. Murong Xue bent down slightly, and with a flick of her sleeves, a white robe was thrown far into the center of the arena, entangled with a wooden stake,
