"Me?"
Facing Shangguan Wuji's inquiry, Wang Chen smiled and said, "Of course I see what Her Highness the Princess wants. If she is willing to pass on Barbarian King, I will escort her to Southern Barbarians."
"What if Your Highness is unwilling?"
Shangguan Wuji directly said what Wang Chen had not said yet. Sixth-tier Martial Venerable's eyes became as sharp as a blade. "Grand Guardian Wang, how will you deal with it?"
"And I heard that Grand Guardian Wang is also His Highness's mentor?"
"Yes, I am His Highness's master."
Wang Chen met Shangguan Wuji's gaze with an indifferent expression. "If His Highness is not willing, then no one can force it!"
The two people's eyes collided silently, causing the temperature of the entire hall to drop suddenly.
Sun Zhengheng sitting aside couldn't help but shudder.
His cultivation strength was the weakest among the three, so he didn't even have a chance to speak.
Shangguan Wuji was silent for a moment, then Make a Move stretched his fingers and slid them on the table. His fingertips penetrated the hard table board and drew a simple map.
"This is Great Qi, this is Great Yan, this is Southern Barbarians..."
After finishing the painting, Hanhai Army Commander poked four points in succession on the table. "This is our Great Liang."
From a geographical point of view, Great Liang occupies the best territory. Not only does it have a large number of fertile plains, but most places Four Seasons clearly have a pleasant climate and are also very rich in products.
But Great Liang is also surrounded by Great Yan, Great Qi and Southern Barbarians. The latter two have always coveted the sacred land of Great Liang, and wars have continued for hundreds of years.
Although the relationship between Great Yan and Great Liang is good, only an ignorant idiot would believe that Great Yan has no ambitions for Great Liang's territory.
The existence of Hanhai City is to block the ambition of Great Yan!
These are all foreign troubles.
Internal troubles have become more complicated, rebels against the party have risen and heresies are everywhere, and there are countless demons and ghosts causing trouble in the world. Coupled with the corruption and tyranny of officials, they have gradually weakened the national power of Liang.
In the view of Shangguan Wuji, the general in charge of the army, Emperor Shaowu, who has mediocre qualifications and weak character, has no ability to restore Great Liang's decline, and nothing can be changed with Princess Qingyun and Great Yan.
If you want to save the crumbling Great Liang, you have to change the day!
Shangguan Wuji believes that except for identity, Prince Jing far surpasses Emperor Shaowu in other aspects.
This is the root of his support for Prince Jing in this sudden change.
Even Prince Jing's idea of ceding the three northern counties to Great Qi was recognized by Shangguan Wuji.
Because the three northern counties are bordering Great Qi, there are no natural dangers to defend. In order to deal with Great Qi's harassment over the years, countless manpower and material resources have been invested, causing Great Liang to have a steady flow of water.
Although ceding the three counties will cause severe pain for a while, hundreds of thousands of elite Border Army can retreat to the Tianyun Mountain fortress and block the passage for the Great Qi army to go south, which will save countless money and food in the future.
Moreover, some Border Army can also be transferred back to the south to suppress the rebellious Rebel Faction heretics and frighten the barbarians who are ready to move.
It can be said that it accomplishes multiple things with one stone!
In addition, the three counties lost by Great Liang can be regained from Great Yan.
Prince Jing is willing to put aside the hatred of the past and bear the humiliation to negotiate peace with Great Qi, also for the sake of the survival and revival of Great Liang!
He asked Princess Qingyun to pass on Barbarian King, on the one hand to show Great Qi his determination for peace talks, and on the other hand to temporarily stabilize the Southern Barbarians tribe and leave it to be resolved later.
"For the sake of Great Liang's eternal stability and the peace of the people..."
Shangguan Wuji said righteously, "I hope Grand Guardian Wang can take the overall situation into consideration and convince His Highness to go to Southern Barbarians!"
"What a great situation!"
Wang Chen smiled, "What if I ignore the overall situation? How will you treat me?"
Shangguan Wuji's face was gloomy, showing a hint of murderous aura.
He didn't answer, but his attitude said it all.
Wang Chen seemed unaware, suppressed his smile and said, "I won't give it away!"
The corners of Shangguan Wuji's eyes twitched. He took a deep look at Wang Chen, and then said, "The day Prince Jing ascends the throne is when His Highness goes south, Grand Guardian Wang, take care of yourself!"
After saying that, Shangguan Wuji stood up and left.
Wang Chen watched the other party's figure disappear at the entrance of the hall and smiled coldly.
This Hanhai Army Commander clearly moved murderous intent, but he was strong enough to suppress Make a Move's impulse. The city was not as deep as usual.
Wang Chen turned to look at Sun Zhengheng sitting beside him and asked, "Are you okay?"
Sun Zhengheng's face was pale and sweaty, and his hands were still shaking.
The power of Killing Intent that Shangguan Wuji suddenly burst out just now caused a great shock to him.
Not collapsing on the spot was considered very strong.
"It's okay."
Sun Zhengheng took a deep breath and smiled bitterly, "Grand Guardian Wang, how will we deal with it in three days?"
Now the marriage team is trapped and dead in the palace, and they have fallen out with Shangguan Wuji. The situation is really getting worse. Sun Zhengheng can no longer imagine what he and others will face in the future!
Thinking of Great Ye's relatives and family far away, Imperial Forest Guard commander felt extremely gloomy.
"Don't worry, I'll take care of everything."
Wang Chen said calmly, "Let's wait for three days. After three days, if Shangguan Wuji insists on having his own way..."
"Then I'll send him to his death!"
Sun Zhengheng is horrified!
He couldn't believe his ears - Wang Chen actually wanted to kill Shangguan Wuji?
Is it possible?
By the time Sun Zhengheng came to his senses, Wang Chen had already left.
Wang Chen did not leave the palace, but went to the inner hall to meet Princess Qingyun and told her the current situation in detail.
Princess Qingyun After listening to this, his whole body withered like a flower struck by frost.
She had already suffered great mental stimulation today, but she didn't expect that a worse fate was still waiting for her!
Who is Barbarian King?
In the understanding of Great Liang, from high-ranking officials to ordinary people, they are beast-like existences, bloodthirsty, cruel, violent and ugly barbaric people.
Princess Qingyun can't imagine how she will be treated after marrying Barbarian King.
Barbarians are animals without humanity and no sense of etiquette or shame!
The delicate girl trembled involuntarily, feeling as if she had fallen into a bottomless ice cave. The coldness rushed from the soles of her feet to the sky, making her dizzy and shaky for a moment.
At this moment, a warm and strong hand held her delicate hand.
Princess Qingyun turned around subconsciously and saw the concerned gaze cast by Wang Chen.
She suddenly felt warm in her heart and leaned into the latter's arms.
"Don't worry."
Wang Chen patted her shoulder lightly and said, "I will not let you marry Southern Barbarians. I can take you far away and away from all grudges, but I don't think this is the best choice."
"Her Highness the Princess, have you ever thought about becoming the first empress of Great Liang?"
Princess Qingyun is confused!
