The eldest prince and Shiliu discuss how to deal with the blackmail with the Qi State.
Blackmail, if you think about it, you know it's not easy. The city plus the ransom must be delivered by a special person, which is not so easy.
The eldest prince has never done any work himself. When he was in charge of the army, he had Master Maitreya as his staff, and there was always someone to take care of him, no matter how small it was. Now he's a bit like a cat catching a hedgehog—Mapao.
"Look at you, why did you agree to this kind of errand?" Shiliu didn't even think about whether there were hidden pipes in the palace to eavesdrop or something, and said angrily, "Is it so easy for Qi to agree?"
The eldest prince was quite aggrieved: "Father said whether I have confidence, I have to answer that."
"Then we can only give it a try." Shiliu scratched her head.
"It's all up to little Liuliu to advise me." The eldest prince didn't even mention his lonely self-proclaimed, and now he completely regards Pomegranate as his brain trust.
The original skepticism was temporarily gone now. As a result, the stupid and wise pomegranate once again stabilized his status.
"Let's see if you dare to make up your own mind in the future!" [Top] [Point] The novel Pomegranate gave the eldest prince a hateful look, and even stretched out her hand to pinch his waist.
Others never expected such a small move, and Shi Liu dared to attack him as a prince.
But the eldest prince was very useful, he yelled in a low voice: "Take it easy, it's outside, don't let people see it..."
If Wu Zhe was present, he would definitely exclaim: Sister Pomegranate, quickly put on your chest-drum queen outfit, and let the prince until he is completely bruised and crumbling~
Inside the Hall of Mental Cultivation.
After the eldest prince walked away, Emperor Xuanwu's face darkened: "You guys, it's so courageous for you to play games on the eldest prince."
"Yes, I must have gone too far. The eldest prince agreed reluctantly." Princess Qing took the responsibility first. But she glanced at Wu Zhe before saying: "Father said that the family members were having fun, so Qing'er messed around a bit. I hope Father will forgive me."
"Okay, tell me about your plan?" Emperor Xuanwu asked knowingly.
"What the eldest prince said is very good, why do you need my suggestion?" Princess Qing had a humble look on her face.
Emperor Xuanwu, who knew the details, didn't ask further, but looked at Prince Mo: "What's your plan here?"
Prince Mo said calmly: "If the eldest prince fails to negotiate, then the plan on my son's side can be implemented."
"How sure are you?" Emperor Xuanwu asked.
Prince Mo glanced at Wu Zhe. He was not afraid that Emperor Xuanwu would mind that he had no opinion. Miss Zhou is his own think tank, Emperor Xuanwu has already admitted it, otherwise it would not have been passed on to the palace. If such a think tank recognized as a strategy is not used, he would be a fool.
Wu Zhe knew that Prince Mo was waiting for his own judgment, but how could he be sure? She simply replied: "It's up to people to plan things, but it's up to God to make things happen."
"That's a good sentence." Emperor Xuanwu appreciated it very much. It is much better than the grand prince's reckless promise to negotiate blackmail. However, Emperor Xuanwu deliberately sneered: "Ms. Zhou is worthy of being called a think tank. She can say that she is not sure in such a high-sounding manner, and she still dares to fool me like this in front of me. It is the first time in recent years."
Wu Zhe hurriedly bowed and said, "I don't dare. It's just that Qi Guo doesn't know much about it. I don't know what to do. If I can get in touch with their negotiators, especially the owner of Princess Youyou, I will be more confident." a little."
Emperor Xuanwu nodded: "It's hard to make any judgments for you, after all, you don't have the opportunity to come into contact with too many spies. Forget it, girl Qing, you can take Zhou Zhiruo to the Spy Pavilion to read the relevant spies of Qi. And Princess Youyou, who deliberately let you Manager Peng will arrange it."
Wu Zhe was overjoyed. I didn't expect that I would have such a good opportunity. In fact, this is also the reason why Wu Zhe has performed well for a long time.
Emperor Xuanwu admired this woman's command very much. I just overheard their conversation in the inner hall, and I am even more convinced that if Princess Qing can cooperate with her double wisdom. I can completely get rid of the hard work of using my brain.
As he got older, Emperor Xuanwu's mental strength gradually felt exhausted. He also hopes that someone can help take over part of the trouble of planning.
"Father, rest assured and leave it to me." Princess Qing did not say to obey the order, but agreed casually.
She looked at Wu Zhe with a special meaning in her eyes: I will arrange for you in the next few days.
But Emperor Xuanwu hadn't arranged everything yet, so he said slowly: "Princess Youyou will enter Wudu territory tomorrow. As for where, Chief Peng will take you there. So what do you have today?" Things need to be arranged, do it quickly."
"Yes." Princess Qing agreed first.
Wu Zhe was also happy that he didn't need to follow the order, otherwise he would kneel down.
Emperor Xuanwu said to Dugu Mo: "Mo'er, borrow your brains for a few days first, let her familiarize herself with the contents of the espionage. Only then can it be easier to plan."
Dugu Mo said calmly: "I have no objection."
Needless to say, the matter was too clear, Emperor Xuanwu made it clear that if the eldest prince fails, Princess Qing and Prince Mo's plan will take over. Let Zhou Zhiruo get ready to speak now.
Wu Zhe's harvest exceeded expectations, and he did not expect to have access to a large amount of information about Wu and Qi. Although I have seen a lot in Qi country, the understanding of the enemy country is another description.
Then, Emperor Xuanwu called Chief Executive Peng to come in and arrange the imperial edict of empowerment for the eldest prince.
Wu Zhe and others noticed that the eldest prince mentioned in the imperial decree did not represent Wu Kingdom, but the border warlord...
Emperor Xuanwu was really not optimistic about the eldest prince. Long Lao sighed secretly, Wu Zhe and Princess Qing didn't care, but Dugu Mo was happy.
"Oh, that's right." Princess Qing suddenly said: "Father, my daughter has a merciless request."
"Let's talk and listen."
"The suzerain of the Zhanjian Sect is very face-saving. After suffering such a big loss this time, I am afraid that he will come to Wudu to make trouble."
"Hehe, you girl." Emperor Xuanwu actually knew it already, but Princess Qing unexpectedly brought it up by herself.
"So my daughter is worried that I will be in danger." Princess Qing looked around and pretended to be full of danger, "Although the father has several daughters, I am the most timid..."
Wu Zhe almost laughed out loud. He was obviously worried that he was too popular recently, and would be captured and threatened by the suzerain, so why did he still speak as if he was timid.
"Your Majesty, please call the seven golden-armored guards of the Sanshengzong to protect the security of the military." Long Lao said from the side: "Although the golden-armored guards are not enough to resist the suzerain's surprise attack, they are enough to delay the arrival of the Sanshengzong from the sect."
"Indeed, it is necessary." Emperor Xuanwu said again: "Arrange to strengthen the protective crystals of Wudu, and enter a state of secondary combat readiness."
Wu Zhe has read many books and has a great understanding of many spar concepts. The city defense spar can be blocked from many aspects such as ground and air. Ordinary people will not be affected at all, but those with five-star or higher profound energy will be hindered.
The suzerain made a surprise attack, and if he didn't activate his profound energy, he had to enter through the heavily guarded gate of Wudu. Can such an important person come in so easily through the door? And the suzerain owns his identity, and he will not hide in any box or pile of thatch.
If he summoned his profound energy and leaped from the air, he would be immediately blocked by Wudu's spar defense. Although with the suzerain's strength, it is only a matter of time before the spar defense is completely defeated. But Wu Guo needs this time, and the Three Sages can come to help.
The second combat readiness state is already a defensive operation mode that consumes a lot of spar. It can be seen that Emperor Xuanwu was afraid of the suzerain.
The suzerain in the state of full moon and great consummation is definitely an existence close to nuclear deterrence. Wu Zhe also realized the power of basalt, a master can give the king a headache.
However, Xuanwu masters are also flesh and blood, and if they fall into a tight siege, even the suzerain can only protect themselves and escape. Because profound energy is exhausted from time to time, it is impossible to output it infinitely. If many masters from Wu Kingdom came out to encircle and annihilate the suzerain at any cost, he would have no choice but to escape with his tail between his legs.
"Mr. Long's proposal is very good. It seems that I don't need to ask the experts of the Three Saints to protect me." Princess Qing smiled softly.
Elder Long's expression was serious: "The Sanshengzong and Wu Kingdom share the same spirit, and we should do our best to protect the safety of Wudu in this tense moment."
Princess Qing originally wanted to ask Long Lao to follow her and Zhou Zhiruo and protect her surroundings. But hearing Long Lao talk about the seven golden-armored guards, he interrupted this idea.
I'm afraid the other party is unwilling? This is also easy to understand. Although she is a princess and Zhou Zhiruo has a good status, she is a woman after all. A master like Long Lao is unwilling to condescend to serve as a guard.
Emperor Xuanwu said: "The golden armored guards were originally from the warriors in front of the Wuguo Palace. This training will only come out after ten years, and it is also a chance for them to show their talents."
Emperor Xuanwu said a few more casual words, saying that he was tired, and told everyone to retreat.
After the crowd retreated, Emperor Xuanwu walked to a place where the curtain was drawn on the wall of the Hall of Mental Cultivation.
Manager Peng immediately came over courteously and opened the curtain.
Above are portraits of several figures who influenced the Wu Kingdom's hegemony.
Among them, Xiao Ruoyao's portrait attracted Xuanwu Emperor's gaze the most.
"Xiao Ruoyao, hehe. Could it be that the luck of the past few years has been abnormal, causing Yin to prosper and Yang to decline?" Emperor Xuanwu looked at it for a while, then suddenly smiled and said: "It is rare that two intelligent women have arisen from our Great Wu Kingdom. Even if I don't care, I will There is no need to embarrass you."
At this time, a spy chief came to report: "Report to the emperor, the rubbings of "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" written by Xiao Ruoyao have been obtained."
""The Legend of the Condor Heroes"? It's very good, bring it to me quickly." Xuanwu Emperor remembered the surprise when he watched "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms", and immediately became very interested.
This rubbings can show the strength of Wu Kingdom's espionage system. Wu Zhe's novels left in Jin and Qi were taken back before they were printed in large quantities. I really should worry about whether Father Xiao and Niang Xiao are safe.
Emperor Xuanwu took this novel and read it a few times, but soon became fascinated by it... (To be continued..)
