The whole family is obsessed with love? The princess woke them up one after another.

The world is silent at this moment!

Li Zhuowen: "..."

King Xin: "..."

Li Zhuowen turned his head, his stiff neck making a cracking sound, and looked at Prince Xin.

The moment Prince Xin's gaze turned to him, his expression immediately changed to one of righteous indignation: "Li Zhuowen, what do you take my Great Rui for?"

"A clown you can manipulate at will?"

Li Zhuowen: "!!!"

He finally learned what their prince had gone through in Da Rui.

I've never heard of Da Rui being so shameless before!

Qi Zhiyu glanced at Prince Xin; the Imperial Uncle was cooperating quite well.

Li Zhuowen took a deep breath to calm himself down, determined not to lose his composure.

"Your Highness, the princess is young and doesn't understand what I mean. Does Your Highness not understand either?" Li Zhuowen asked.

"Do some things really need to be said so explicitly?"

Prince Xin did not speak, but looked at Qi Zhiyu.

He felt that the words in his father's letter were truly golden rules.

You can't go wrong by listening to his eldest niece.

"Lord Li, you're really joking." Qi Zhiyu scoffed, cutting off Li Zhuowen's words.

"You didn't explain clearly that those things were meant to be exchanged for Yanyun City from us, instead of talking about some kind of reward for a righteous act."

"Since you thanked us for our righteous act, I naturally assumed that you people of Qi had a conscience, and so I accepted it."

"If I had known that those things were being exchanged for Yan Yun City, even if I were incredibly naive, I wouldn't have agreed!"

"Find me a city, and trade those things for it. If you can get me a city, I'll let you take Yanyun City!"

Qi Zhiyu sneered, "Don't try to pass off worthless cities. Even if I was young and ignorant, I still have a father, uncles, and grandfather!"

"There are adults in my family!"

King Xin: "..."

Actually, these adults aren't that important.

However, since my niece said that...

Prince Xin's face hardened: "Lord Li, my niece is of pure heart. Don't try to fool her with those bureaucratic tricks!"

Li Zhuowen stared at Prince Xin in disbelief.

He really wanted to grab Prince Xin's shoulders and shake him violently, demanding to know if Prince Xin knew what he was saying.

Is Qi Zhiyu pure of heart?

It's so pure.

Isn't this just a complete scam?

"Princess, the two countries of Da Rui and Qi have always been on good terms..." Li Zhuowen's words were met with a cold laugh from Qi Zhiyu.

"We've always been on good terms, so you're just always trying to screw over my Da Rui, aren't you?"

"You think you can exchange such a small amount for the city that my soldiers fought tooth and nail to capture?"

"Who gave you the nerve?"

How could you say such a thing!

"That little bit of stuff is actually presentable!"

"If I were you, I would have found a deserted, stinking ditch and drowned myself."

"Because of my own filthy and shameless thoughts, I am a thousand times more stinking than a stinking ditch!"

Li Zhuowen was so angry that he trembled all over. He suddenly realized that his years of experience in the court were completely useless in front of Qi Zhiyu.

She doesn't follow the rules at all!

Everyone tries to cover things up with a fig leaf, but she just flipped the table and completely tore off the mask!

Prince Xin tried hard to recall when they captured Yanyun City... did they fight a bloody battle?

A narrow escape from death?

Um... you're talking about the Prince of Ning in northern Yunnan, right?

However, whatever my niece says goes.

Prince Xin cooperated by putting on an indignant expression and glaring angrily at Li Zhuowen!

No matter what, he and his niece are on the same side!

"Princess, the things you've proposed are far too many; our Qi Kingdom cannot accept them!" Li Zhuowen bluntly stated his position.

Qi Zhiyu sneered: "If you can't accept it, just say so."

"You think you can exchange such a small amount for a city? Let me tell you, my royal uncle is a respectable man, but I am not!"

Qi Zhiyu's words left Li Zhuowen feeling extremely uncomfortable.

She's not a respectable person, so why is she speaking so confidently?

Why is she so proud?

"What? You want my royal uncle to swallow this loss out of consideration for our relationship?" Qi Zhiyu stared at Li Zhuowen with disdain.

"We lost a city, and to the outside world, you will still proclaim that the two countries are on good terms, that you are grateful to Da Rui for helping us, and that you have also sent us gifts as a token of your appreciation."

"The city has fallen into your hands; and you've also gained a good reputation."

"Where is our Da Rui?"

"People were lost, cities were lost, and in the end, we were branded with the infamy of taking bribes from your Qi Kingdom before returning the cities to you!"

"On what grounds?"

"Let me tell you, my father, my uncle, and my grandfather are all kind-hearted and soft-hearted; they can't bring themselves to refuse. I'm different!"

Li Zhuowen gritted his teeth: "Princess, Yanyun City is of paramount importance to our Qi Kingdom!"

"It must never be handed over to others."

Qi Zhiyu scoffed: "Then you can exchange it for what's written in our booklet."

Li Zhuowen flatly refused: "That's impossible!"

"Da Rui is making outrageous demands, completely disregarding the diplomatic relations between the two countries."

"You're treating our Da Rui like fools, don't you care?" Qi Zhiyu questioned.

"Stop talking nonsense!" Qi Zhiyu said bluntly, "Either you exchange those things for it, or you send your troops to seize Yanyun City of my Great Rui."

Li Zhuowen was so angry that his chest heaved with blood.

What is Da Rui's Yanyun City?

This clearly belongs to their Qi Kingdom!

Li Zhuowen took a deep breath, desperately commanding himself to stay calm, he had to stay calm!

He must not act impulsively.

If we act impulsively and start a war, we will fall into Da Rui's trap.

If it were just their Qi Kingdom facing off against Da Rui, their Qi Kingdom might not necessarily lose.

However, if Da Rui is in the right, other countries will come under the guise of helping them and attack Qi together, which will inevitably distract them and weaken them.

The Kingdom of Qi... will be completely divided up!

Therefore, they absolutely cannot be attacked.

Or rather, you absolutely cannot fight without a legitimate reason!

Li Zhuowen sighed helplessly: "Princess, as I just said, Yanyun City is very important to our Qi Kingdom."

"Without Yanyun City, there will be a loophole in the border defense of my Qi Kingdom. If the people of Beidian attack, my Qi Kingdom will not be able to form a coordinated force."

"Da Rui has always taken good care of our Qi Kingdom and helped us with defense."

"I believe that Da Rui would not want to see my Qi Kingdom attacked by Bei Dian."

Qi Zhiyu smiled.

Is this the start of playing the emotional card?

Are they starting to play the victim?

"Lord Li, you must be joking." Qi Zhiyu looked at him strangely.

"In all these years, with my Great Rui here, when has your Qi Kingdom ever suffered harassment from Northern Dian?"

"Moreover, with Yanyun City, we can better block the northern Yunnan."

"You, you're so lucky, you're spared the harassment from Northern Yunnan without having to send out a single soldier... Eh?"

Qi Zhiyu seemed to have thought of something and looked at Li Zhuowen with a smile: "Lord Li, the Northern Dian are cunning. They actually said that the reason they were able to break through our defenses this time was because Qi Yanhe poisoned the soldiers guarding us."
