Just as Zhu Rong was thinking about how to stall for time.
Lan Yu had already returned to the capital, travel-worn.
After returning to the capital, Lan Yu immediately rushed to the palace to meet Old Zhu.
In the Imperial Palace.
"Are you sure what you said is true?”
Old Zhu sat on the dragon throne and looked at Lan Yu with a serious expression. In his heart, he was certain that what Lan Yu said was true.
Lan Yu said with certainty,
"Your Majesty, what this subject said is absolutely true. At that time, besides this subject, there was also Song Sheng and my 100,000 Great Ming soldiers.”
"They all saw it with their own eyes. Your Majesty, we can't let Initial City stay!”
"If we can't completely deal with them, they will definitely become a huge problem for my Great Ming in the future!”
Old Zhu frowned and said indifferently,"
"Don't jump to conclusions so quickly. Our Great Ming Empire's envoy has already gone to the Initial City. We'll talk about the specific situation when the envoy returns.”
Lan Yu said somewhat anxiously,"
"Your Majesty, this subject believes that it is best not to give this Starting City too much time. As long as they do not agree to submit to my Great Ming, this subject requests Your Majesty to grant this subject the grace to immediately lead three hundred thousand, no, five hundred thousand troops to exterminate them. We must not give them any chance to develop and grow!”
Old Zhu frowned and looked at Lan Yu coldly."
"Lan Yu, are you teaching us how to do things again? Or do you think I'm old and muddle-headed and can't tell what's important and what's important?”
"I'll tell you again. I know about this matter. You can leave now!”
When he said this, Old Zhu's tone was very bad. His dissatisfaction was obvious.
Although Lan Yu was straightforward, he was not a fool. He could naturally hear the obvious dissatisfaction in Old Zhu's tone.
Lan Yu was still very respectful to Old Zhu. She could only lower her head helplessly and say,
"Yes, I will take my leave!"
After Lan Yu left, Old Zhu said to Eunuch Wang,"
"Wang An, do you think Lan Yu's words are trustworthy? He built a city bigger than Jinling in a month. Why do I feel like I'm listening to a story?”
Eunuch Wang said in a deep voice,"
"This old servant also sounds like a story. Building a city bigger than Jin Ling City in a month is a bit like dreaming. However, this matter was not only seen by Lan Yu, but also by Song Sheng and the 100,000 Ming Dynasty soldiers.”
"Then the authenticity of this matter needs to be deliberated.”
"If it's true, then this Starting City is really as Lan Yu said, a little terrifying.”
"But if it's fake, then this matter is really terrifying. That means that not only does Lan Yu control 100,000 border troops, even Song Sheng is also obeying his orders.”
When Old Zhu heard this, he did not say anything but fell into deep thought.
After a long while, he said indifferently,"
"Let's wait for the results of the diplomatic mission. Regardless of whether this matter is true or false, this Starting City is definitely worth paying attention to since it has made Blue Jade so concerned. Perhaps we should prepare for a rainy day.”
Hearing this, Eunuch Wang nodded slightly and did not say anything else.
……
Unknowingly, another seven days had passed.
Huang Zicheng and Qi Tai were finally getting impatient.
For a full seven days, the people of the Initial City did not even have the slightest movement.
This made Corey feel like he had been tricked.
Huang Zicheng couldn't sit still anymore. Just yesterday, news came from Jin Ling City.
The emperor wanted them to end the battle quickly and clearly understand the attitude of the Starting City.
If he couldn't figure it out, he would immediately return!
Qi Tai and Huang Zicheng had a discussion and decided that there was no need to wait here, so they prepared to go back.
However, what they did not expect was…
Just as they were about to return to Da Ming.
Someone from the Starting City had arrived.
The City Lord agreed to meet them.
Qi Tai and Huang Zicheng didn't know what to say.
There was no reaction after seven days. They were about to leave, but the City Lord of the Starting City had returned. Was this done on purpose?
However, Qi Tai and Huang Zicheng still decided to make a trip to the Initial City with the emperor's orders.
He wanted to see what the City Lord's attitude was.
However, what they did not expect was…
After entering the city, they were willing to talk.
However, Huang Zicheng was so angry that he almost vomited blood.
They had been bickering all this time and had not reached a single point.
They talked in circles for half a month.
Corey and Selina realized that it was almost the same as not talking at all.
At this moment, even if the two of them were stupid, they understood that they had been played.
Hence, the two of them left angrily.
On the third day after they left.
A storm that targeted the Starting City had officially begun!
