Chapter 308 Is Su Changxue jealous?
Pei Wanxing's generosity and aggressiveness made the officials of Sheng State sweat.
The Sheng official cautiously probed, "I heard that Princess Zhaohua is also in Xiling. I wonder why Lord Pei is here?"
As soon as these words were spoken, the atmosphere in the palace suddenly became tense. Everyone knew that the current situation in Sheng Kingdom was entirely due to the strategic planning of Princess Zhaohua of Daxia.
Everyone in the court and the country thought that the legendary princess would be present in person for the peace talks, but unexpectedly, there was no sign of her.
Pei Wanxing chuckled when she heard this, and her slender fingers casually fiddled with the teacup.
He chuckled, "What level are you, are you worthy enough to meet the noble princess of Daxia?"
The official's face turned pale.
"If you really want to see me," she said, her eyes flickering, her tone suddenly turning cold. "Why not have your emperor personally invite me? Perhaps our princess would be willing to condescend and grant me this favor."
The official slammed the table and stood up, veins throbbing on his forehead. "Master Pei, your words...are too much!"
Feng Mian and He Xi pretended to be followers and were right behind Pei Wanxing.
With these two people around him, Pei Wanxing is even more confident.
She smiled. "Sir, our soldiers of Great Xia are fighting on the front lines, risking their lives and shedding their blood. Do you think this is to make me grovel and servile before you? This is too much... These four words, these four words, are the Sheng Kingdom even worthy of saying?"
Feng Mian and He Xi, who were standing behind Pei Wanxing, looked at each other and saw surprise in each other's eyes.
This Mr. Pei, who had just entered the court, was so sharp in his words.
But this arrogance made them feel comfortable.
That's how it should be.
Doesn’t Daxia have the ability to be arrogant now?
Pei Wanxing is right.
The soldiers at the front paid with their lives, not to make them bow down to the Sheng Kingdom.
Pei Wanxing continued, word by word, "What's more, it was Sheng Country that first extended its hand into Da Xia territory. It's not Da Xia that can be blamed. This is too much."
Pei Wanxing's words were increasingly pressing, and after just a few words, the other official's face turned pale.
The official was choked and speechless, his earlier scorn turning into a solemn expression. Only then did he truly understand the strength of a powerful nation and the arrogance of a victor.
After a brief stalemate, the Sheng Kingdom official finally said, "Lord Pei, these five cities of Jiangcheng have always been the territory of our Sheng Kingdom. Our dynasty hopes that Daxia will return these five cities and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to our Sheng Kingdom. As for the conditions... Lord Pei, you can propose them. If they are met, our dynasty will definitely meet Daxia's conditions. We only hope that both sides can have peace and no more war."
Pei Wanxing raised his eyebrows, with a hint of sarcasm in his eyes.
"You want a crown prince?" Pei Wanxing raised her eyebrows and sneered, "We can discuss it. But the Five Cities—" She suddenly slammed the table and stood up, "Don't even think about it! I'm here today only to convey the princess's order."
She raised her chin. "Our princess said that you now have only two choices. Either you submit a letter of surrender, submit to our Xia Dynasty, become our vassal state, and pay tribute every year. Or, we, Daxia, send troops to expand Shengguo into our territory. In the former case, your emperor and officials can continue to maintain your current positions.
And the latter..."
She deliberately dragged her voice and curled her lips, "When our Great Xia cavalry conquers Shengjing, whoever sits on the dragon throne will have to obey our Great Xia."
As soon as these words were spoken, the officials of Sheng State broke out in cold sweat.
His expression became increasingly ugly.
The content of the conversation between the two parties was also transmitted to Xiling Lin Zhaoyue's ears at the fastest speed.
After reading the secret letter.
Lin Zhaoyue raised the corners of her lips, "Wanxing really didn't disappoint me."
Su Changxue stepped forward and said calmly, "Shengguo, I'm afraid it won't be so easy to surrender." He paused, "But under such high pressure, they will have to surrender even if they don't want to."
Lin Zhaoyue also laughed, "Lord Xiao has already gone to prepare, the Black Armor Army, be on standby at any time."
Su Changxue also curled his lips slightly, "If that's the case, then it's time for Shenli Valley to make some moves."
Lin Zhaoyue raised her eyebrows and looked at Su Changxue, "Don't worry, I still need someone."
Su Changxue was puzzled.
Lin Zhaoyue looked at the secret letter and said, "Don't forget, we still have the prince in our hands. Since he's a hostage, we should at least play a role."
"What's more... she's been forgotten for so long. I, the Queen, should give her a new identity. I want everyone in the world to remember her name. This can be considered my first gift to her."
Su Changxue seemed to have guessed something and frowned.
Suddenly he said calmly, "Your Highness, why didn't you give me a gift?"
Lin Zhaoyue: “…”
