Seeing the reactions of the officials in the Great Gan Imperial Court, he was shocked.
The Prime Minister of Dali, Feng Yusheng, narrowed his eyes and his expression turned ugly.
It seemed like…
Emperor Qian didn't agree to Dali's conditions.
This time, his plan had failed!
After a while.
Emperor Qian muttered to himself for a while, then looked at Feng Yusheng and said,""Help me tell the Emperor of Dali that I appreciate his good intentions.”
As soon as he finished speaking.
Feng Yusheng also knew Emperor Qian's attitude. He cupped his hands and bowed respectfully,"
"Your Majesty's intentions will be conveyed to Your Majesty after I return to Dali.”
"We will take our leave!"
After Feng Yusheng finished speaking, he turned around and prepared to leave with Zhao Mengxuan.
When he walked up to Su Changshen, he deliberately stopped for a while, and his eyes revealed a strange expression.
Su Changsen sneered and curled his lips. Then, he looked at Emperor Qian who was sitting on the dragon throne and said,""Your son will take his leave!"
"You may leave!"
Emperor Qian waved his hand and said impatiently.
"Ministers, do you still have anything to report?”
After Su Changshen left.
Emperor Qian glanced at the ministers and narrowed his eyes.
Hearing this.
The ministers present also understood what Emperor Qian meant and remained silent.
"Since you actually reported without a basis, then retreat!”
Emperor Qian's face was cold and dignified. After he finished speaking, he flicked his sleeves and left.
"We respectfully send you off, Your Majesty!"
All the civil and military officials bowed slightly and saluted.
After Emperor Qian left, they all stood up and left.
...
In the royal study of the Great Qian Imperial Palace.
Emperor Qian sat at the head of the table with an indifferent expression. There was another figure sitting next to him. It was the Imperial Advisor, Wang Xundao.
"Your Majesty, the conditions that the Li Dynasty proposed just now were not excessive. Why did you not agree?”
" What's wrong?" Wang Xun asked with a smile.
In his opinion.
The fact that the Li Dynasty was willing to marry the Third Princess to the Ninth Prince was very beneficial to the Great Qian Dynasty.
At the very least, it would be a good story.
The Great Qian Dynasty and the Great Li Dynasty were connected by marriage.
However, it sounded much better than sending the princess to the Li Dynasty.
At the very least, this was what he did.
The Great Gan Empire would not lose face.
Emperor Qian was silent. After a long while, he sighed and said,"
"There are some bottom lines that can't be touched. The marriage alliance is really a helpless move!”
"Your Majesty, are you worried about the Northern Battlefront King?”
When Wang Xundao heard this, he immediately reacted and understood the hidden meaning in the words.
If they returned the 18 border cities to the Li Dynasty, the Great Gan would not suffer any losses.
However, to the Northern Battlefront King and the soldiers of the Great Qian Dynasty, this was absolutely intolerable.
In the eyes of the soldiers.
It was an honor to die on the battlefield.
However, they couldn't tolerate the fact that the territory they had fought and conquered was given away by Emperor Qian with just a few words.
Because of the marriage alliance.
Northern Battlefront King was already complaining.
If they were to cede the 18 border cities now, it would definitely cause dissatisfaction in the army.
At that time.
The Great Qian Empire was probably going to be in chaos.
Moreover, there were also ministers in the court who opposed it. Even Emperor Qian couldn't act willfully and had to consider the implications.
From the looks of it, maintaining the status quo was the best solution.
Emperor Qian saw through everything.
Before he broke through to the Saint Realm, he would eventually be restrained.
This position was not so easy to take.
"Have you found the location of the Blood Soul Hall's headquarters?”
At this moment.
Emperor Qian suddenly thought of something and asked Wang Xun.
"There's no whereabouts yet."
"However, when I was searching for the Blood Soul Hall's stronghold, I found that another group of forces was also looking for the Blood Soul Hall's whereabouts!”
"This is the mysterious force that destroyed the Blood Soul Hall's stronghold in Da Qian!”
Wang Xun Xun's voice was low and solemn.
"Hmm?"
Emperor Qian narrowed his eyes when he heard that. Waves of pressure burst out from his body, and the entire royal study was filled with an invisible pressure.
"This Emperor had previously sent Shadow Guards to investigate this mysterious force, but they did not manage to find any information. Imperial Preceptor, do you know anything?”
Upon hearing this, Wang Xundao's expression was slightly surprised, but he immediately regained his composure and said,
"I found that there are many experts in this force, and the weakest one is an Almighty expert.”
"What's even more surprising is that these people's auras are the same as the two big shots beside the Ninth Prince!”
"Therefore, I guess that this force has a deep relationship with the Ninth Prince and is loyal to him.”
"As for why these experts are loyal to the Ninth Prince, I don't know.”
"Loyalty?"
Emperor Qian's expression was grim, and he didn't agree with Wang Xun's words.
But the truth was right in front of him.
Just based on the past.
During the battle for the title in the Wilderness, the black-robed bigwig's respectful attitude towards Su Changshen was enough to show the status of both parties.
How did he achieve immortality?
How did he convince all the officials to support him?
These doubts.
Emperor Qian had always kept it in his heart.
Ever since Su Changsen was born, he had grown up right under his nose.
If the other party had the slightest movement, he would not be able to hide it from him.
Emperor Qian knocked on the table as he pondered. He was a little shocked, but he maintained a calm expression on his face.
"Your Majesty, should we continue to search for the Blood Soul Hall's headquarters?”
After a long time.
Seeing that Emperor Qian didn't say anything, Wang Xun asked.
"Forget it, let Changsheng do it himself!”
Emperor Qian's lips curled into a smile and he said with a nonchalant expression,""When he suffers a loss, he will know the outcome.”
"It's not easy to find the headquarters of the Blood Soul Hall. Otherwise, it wouldn't have existed in the East Continent for thousands of years!”
"Since that's the case, Your Majesty, I'll take my leave first!”
Wang Xundao was slightly stunned, but he immediately reacted and replied.
"You may leave!"
Emperor Qian nodded.
.......
At the same time.
In the Ninth Prince's mansion.
In the courtyard.
Su Changshen and Su Zhan, the Northern Battlefront King, sat facing each other. The atmosphere was heavy and depressing.
"Changsheng, there's something that I don't understand. Why did you reject the marriage alliance with Dali Dynasty in the morning court?”
"You must know that the Third Princess of Dali is a peerless beauty. She's even famous on the Eastern Barren Beauty List.”
"Don't you want to bring the beauty home?”
Su Zhan looked at Su Changshen with a dignified expression and asked casually.
"Then, according to Imperial Uncle's meaning, you want Changsheng to give up the 18 border cities!”
"Why don't I go and talk to the Third Princess of Dali now? I believe she'll be very willing.”
"After all, I'm very confident in myself!”
Su Changsen smiled and replied teasingly.
As soon as he said this.
Su Zhan's expression was silent. After a long time, he said solemnly,
"Of course, Imperial Uncle doesn't want to cede the 18 cities on the border. However, if you hadn't stopped him in the morning court today, your father would have agreed to Dali's conditions.”
"Changsheng, I thank you on behalf of the soldiers who sacrificed themselves for the 18 cities on the border.”
Hearing this.
Su Changsen smiled and said nonchalantly,""Imperial Uncle, you've gone too far!"
"Imperial Father is not doing this because of me, but because he is worried about Imperial Uncle's thoughts.”
"However, the Dali Dynasty can only blame themselves for being too arrogant. They thought that they had grasped the weakness of the Great Qian Dynasty and dared to ask for an exorbitant price.”
"He doesn't even know how powerful he is. The Dali Dynasty doesn't want our Great Qian to cede territory.”
As soon as he finished speaking.
"Not bad!"
Su Zhan had a bad temper." Dali Dynasty is nothing," he shouted." How dare you be so presumptuous!"”
"One day, Imperial Uncle will lead his troops to conquer Dali Dynasty.”
Su Changsen remained silent.
That day.
It wouldn't be long.
