Qi Yan's scalp was about to explode!

What's the point of war?

How did the war break out?

If his elder brother knew that he had not only conceded another 10% on the original terms, but also given away the mines and several mountains, the two countries would still go to war in the end.

Most importantly, the Qi Kingdom was in the wrong.

His imperial brother must have torn him apart alive.

Even if he goes mad, he can't let the two countries go to war.

Even if war breaks out, it should be the Qi Kingdom that is in the right, and the Da Rui Kingdom that is in the wrong.

In this way, they will have a legitimate reason to attack.

"Your Highness is too kind..." Qi Yanhe forced a smile.

Qi Zhiyu rolled her eyes at him disdainfully: "Who's joking with an old, ugly guy like you?"

Qi Yanhe: "..."

Civil and military officials: "..."

Suddenly I realized that Princess Chen'an has a really good tongue.

As long as you're not on her opposite side, but on her side, having the princess's mouth... is really satisfying!

The third princess objected: "Where is my prince ugly or old?"

Qi Yanhe: "..."

Can she please shut up?

Is now the time to argue about this?

He was filled with regret once again, realizing he had spoiled the child rotten.

"What kind of apology does the princess want?" Qi Yan asked with a forced smile.

However, even someone who had maintained this facade his entire life was starting to break down at this moment.

The smile on his face looked unnatural.

Qi Zhiyu stared at Qi Yanhe in astonishment, pointing incredulously at herself: "You apologize? You're asking me?"

"Prince Qi, where is your sincerity? Or is this how everyone in your Qi Kingdom does things?"

"I've really learned something new."

Qi Yan choked, he could even hear the people from Da Rui laughing in low voices.

Qi Yan gritted his teeth: "It was my fault. I was thinking of giving the princess whatever she liked..."

"I like the throne of Qi Kingdom. Why don't you give it to me?" Qi Zhiyu replied with a smile.

Qi Yanhe's face immediately darkened: "Princess, watch your words!"

"What do you mean by 'be careful what you say'?" Qi Zhiyu asked, puzzled. "You don't like my grandfather's throne?"

Qi Yan opened his mouth, unsure how to respond.

Say you like it?

Did Da Rui say he liked the Da Rui throne?

It would be a miracle if the two countries didn't go to war.

Say you don't like it?

He believed that as long as he spoke, Qi Zhiyu would immediately be able to make a fuss about it!

Although he didn't know what Qi Zhiyu would do, he had a gut feeling that it was definitely not an answer he would like.

"Princess, rest assured, I will go back and think carefully about what to give you to express my sincerity in apologizing." Qi Yanhe had learned his lesson and no longer let Qi Zhiyu choose for herself.

Others might still care about their reputation, but Qi Zhiyu is truly shameless!

They dare to say anything openly!

"Alright then." Qi Zhiyu sighed, quite disappointed.

Qi Yanhe was screaming inwardly, what exactly was she disappointed about?

He's the one who lost out, isn't he?

"Then let me see the sincerity of Prince Qi." Qi Zhiyu pursed her lips with difficulty, seemingly trying to force a smile, but failed.

Clearly, she didn't trust Qi Yanhe much.

Qi Zhiyu didn't say a word, but her expression alone made Qi Yan feel extremely humiliated.

He, a dignified prince of Qi, would break his word and take advantage of a mere young girl?

Prince Rui spoke up to defend Qi Yan: "Chen'an, Prince Qi's apology will definitely not disappoint you. He is not that two-faced, treacherous, and shameless villain. You don't need to worry."

Qi Yanhe: "..."

There was no joy in being trusted.

Prince Rui is making veiled accusations; he has evidence, but he cannot reveal it!

Wrong!

"Your Highness, please rise." Emperor Kangwu seemed to have just noticed that Qi Yan was kneeling, and magnanimously waved his hand.

"It's just a misunderstanding, don't take it so seriously."

Qi Yan almost spat out a mouthful of blood.

Some misunderstandings?

Don't take it so seriously?

If you're not serious, don't take over their Qi Kingdom's mines!

It's a misunderstanding, don't accept his apology.

Also, return those mountains to them!

Of course, Qi Yanhe could only roar wildly in his heart while putting on a polite, approving smile on his face.

He thanked the emperor and stood up to the side.

Emperor Kangwu looked at the King of Wu.

The King of Wu shivered involuntarily.

Emperor Kangwu sighed: "Let's forget about Bai Ling... Since her mind is so unstable, let her go and cultivate herself in front of the Buddha."

Qi Rongyao looked up in a daze.

Practicing quiet meditation before the Buddha?

Is she going to cut off her hair and become a nun?

Is her life... over just like that?

Grandfather, how could you be so heartless?

"Qi Rongyao, what kind of look is that?" Qi Zhiyu questioned coldly.

"Your father wanted you dead, but your imperial grandfather spared your life. Instead of being grateful, you harbor resentment. What do you mean by that?"

"Your Majesty has a kind heart towards his juniors, but that is absolutely no excuse for you to squander and betray that kindness!"

"If you're not happy about it, then just do as your father suggested and go die!"

Qi Rongyao shuddered, a look of fear of death flashing in her eyes.

Her reaction, of course, did not escape Qi Zhiyu's notice: "Oh, you're afraid of dying too?"

"Since you're afraid, your imperial grandfather spared your life. Instead of being grateful, you harbor resentment?"

"You're really funny!"

Qi Rongyao's expression was complicated, and her gaze shifted.

She hasn't even reached marriageable age yet, so how could she possibly have any ideas?

Especially since Qi Zhiyu's words were all true, her heart was completely in turmoil.

The King of Wu watched helplessly, unable to defend himself.

However, he didn't want to say anything more.

Anyway, his daughter is ruined. Now, he can barely take care of himself, so how can he have the energy to care about Qi Rongyao?

"Grandfather, you've really had a tough time." Qi Zhiyu looked at Emperor Kangwu with heartache.

"Our grandfather went to such great lengths for his descendants, and in the end... they still don't know how to be grateful."

Emperor Kangwu's heart softened; Chen'an was still the most considerate.

"Unlike my father, who always taught us at home how good our imperial grandfather was to us, we must always put our imperial grandfather first." Qi Zhiyu's emotions were so moving that they brought tears to people's eyes.

Emperor Kangwu: "..."

Although the eldest son's family is indeed filial, after what Chen An said... all the emotion I felt just now has vanished?

It's... a little strange...

This feeling became even more pronounced when Emperor Kangwu turned his gaze to his eldest son, whose eyes were slightly red.

Prince Rui noticed Emperor Kangwu's gaze, so he quickly wiped the corner of his eye with his palm and then gave Emperor Kangwu a simple and honest smile.

Emperor Kangwu: "..."

Yes, very good, he instantly calmed down.

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Qi Rongyao knelt down and kowtowed to Emperor Kangwu to express her gratitude.

Emperor Kangwu nodded: "Go back and pack your things, then say goodbye to your mother."

He was a loving grandfather to his younger generation, so naturally he would be tolerant as much as possible.

However, Qi Rongyao's actions were far too serious.

A crime that threatens the very foundation of the nation must be punished; otherwise, it will be difficult to win the people's hearts.
