"What did you say?"
After a long while, Chu Yuyi recovered from the shock, but her eyes were still full of disbelief.
at the same time,
Other civil and military officials also came to their senses.
"shut up!"
"presumptuous!"
"That's unreasonable!"
"Taking the world as a betrothal gift? The Emperor of Qi is really bold."
"What does Qi State mean? Is it possible to humiliate Chu here?"
"Your Majesty is the emperor of Chu. How can you marry that foolish king of Qi? What's more, he so blatantly wants to annex Chu. Could it be that Qi wants to go to war with Chu?"
Some grumpy officials glared at Yan Ying and cursed.
Even Chu Yuyi looked gloomy and said coldly: "Now you take back what you just said, I can pretend that this has never happened, and Chu and Qi can still become allies with each other."
It seems that the reaction of the kings and ministers of Chu Kingdom has been anticipated.
Facing the insults that came into my ears,
Yan Ying always kept a smile and looked calm, as if these curses were not directed at him.
After a while,
There were less curses in the palace.
Yan Ying spoke again at this time: "Your Majesty is willing to use the world as a betrothal gift. Could it be that this sincerity still cannot impress His Majesty the Chu Kingdom?"
Chu Yuyi sneered again and again: "It's really funny. Qi State doesn't even have half of the country, so how can it get the world's power?"
Yan Ying said with a bold voice: "If Qi and Chu were as close as one family, wouldn't it be easy to have the world as a whole?"
Just... one world...
At your fingertips...
When words like this
passed into Chu Yuyi’s ears,
For a moment,
Chu Yuyi was truly moved.
even,
At that moment, in his mind, he imagined that he could dominate the world, sit on thousands of miles of mountains and rivers, and the flags of Chu could be seen everywhere, wherever the sun and moon shined.
But in the blink of an eye,
The font on the flag changed to the word 'Qi'.
Chu Yuyi woke up suddenly, and the feeling of heartbeat disappeared instantly.
Looking at Yan Ying with a playful look, Chu Yuyi sneered: "If Qi and Chu can unite, the world seems to be within easy reach. I just don't know whether this world belongs to Chu or Qi."
After hearing Chu Yuyi's answer,
Some of the ministers' worries were finally relieved.
Just now,
The moment Chu Yuyi's heart moved,
Even the eyes are different from usual.
How could such an obvious change escape the eyes of those ministers.
just,
They are also worried,
Chu Yuyihui really agreed to marry Qi for the sake of the so-called world.
after all,
Judging from the current world situation,
If Qi and Chu really marry and form an alliance, the biggest obstacle to conquering the world, which is the state of Qin, seems to be no longer an obstacle.
only,
If this is the case,
In the end, the world will obviously have the surname Qi.
...
Faced with Chu Yuyi’s questioning,
Yan Ying smiled lightly and said: "If Qi and Chu are married, we will be one family by then, so why should we be divided between you and me?"
Chu Yuyi was laughed out of anger.
"No distinction between each other?"
"To form an alliance with Qi State, do I have to treat the entire Chu State as a dowry?"
"Now I give you three breaths, get out of the hall immediately and out of my sight!"
Chu Yuyi raised his hand and pointed in the direction outside the hall, with a stern tone and an angry look on his face.
Yan Ying shook his head and sighed: "It's easy for me to leave. It only takes a few steps. But if you leave like this, the Chu Kingdom will not be far from destruction."
Chu Yuyi sneered: "Are you threatening me?"
Yan Ying shook his head: "Of course not."
"I'm just stating a fact."
"Actually, before I went to Chu State as an envoy, I gave your Majesty two suggestions."
"One of them is to form an alliance with the Chu State to jointly resist the Qin State. If we can get married to His Majesty the Chu State, everyone will naturally be happy."
"But considering this plan, His Majesty the State of Chu may not agree, so I have made a second suggestion, which is..."
Yan Ying raised her head, put away the smile on her face, and looked at Chu Yuyi with cold eyes like a beast staring at its prey.
With the corner of his mouth slightly raised, Yan Ying joked: "That is to form an alliance with the Qin State and carve up the Chu State!"
As soon as he finished speaking,
Chu Yuyi's face instantly turned pale.
His hands were tightly gripping the armrests.
His face was filled with a hint of panic.
Even the officials on both sides of the hall,
At this moment, the momentum was gone, and some people's faces were even more ugly.
Although Yan Ying made an unabashed threat here,
But this threat
It really penetrated into the weakness of Chu State.
After all, the whole world now,
Only Qin and Qi were the most powerful countries.
After experiencing this disastrous defeat, Chu and Zhao could be said to have suffered a serious loss of vitality.
In a short period of time,
It's impossible to recover slowly.
Not to mention, Chu and Zhao each lost large areas of territory.
if,
According to what Qi Guo said,
Unite Qin and attack Chu from both front and rear.
It is impossible for Chu State to resist.
even,
Chu State had no one to turn to for help.
Look around,
There are only four countries left that are relatively powerful: Wei, Song, Qian and Qing.
in,
Wei and Qi have long been allies, and now they can be said to be as close as one family.
Let’s not talk about the emperor of Song Dynasty, Wan Yangou.
He has no ambition and only cares about fun and enjoyment every day.
As for Qian State, it is at the doorstep of Qin State.
How could he offend Qin in order to rescue Chu.
at last,
There is only one Qing State left, but the question is, can Qing State really save Chu State from the attack of Qi and Qin?
this moment,
Chu Yuyi felt like she was trapped in an ice cave.
Even though it’s hot summer now,
Outside the palace,
The scorching sun scorched the ground.
However, at this moment, Chu Yuyi could not feel any warmth in her body.
She couldn't imagine what it would be like if the Chu Kingdom really died in her own hands.
"you......"
After a long while,
Chu Yuyi bit her lip and said with an ugly face: "Are you here to threaten me and Dachu?"
Yan Ying shook his head lightly: "Why is His Majesty Chu so understanding? As I said before, it's not a threat, it's just stating a fact."
"There are no eternal rivals in the world, only eternal interests."
"Chu State is an interest in the eyes of Qi State."
"It's just that now, His Majesty the State of Chu needs to make a decision. Whether this benefit should be divided between Qin and Qi or shared with Qi."
shared?
Chu Yuyi stared at Yan Ying.
If looks could kill,
By this time, Yan Ying might have died thousands of times.
But the reason in her mind always reminded Chu Yuyi not to be impulsive.
At this moment,
Chu Yuyi also made a decision in her heart.
The Chu State, which had lost all its main force and was forced to move its capital, now seemed to be at a crossroads of destiny.
Every choice will be related to the national destiny of Chu State.
The issue is,
The two options given by Qi State,
No matter which one she thinks about, the final result of Chu State will be its destruction.
Chu Yuyi closed her eyes in pain.
In the palace,
The ministers were also silent.
After all, the pressure of Qin and Qi's simultaneous attacks was like a big mountain, pressing on them.
The few people who had been angrily scolding Yan Ying just now all shut their mouths obediently.
...
(I'm paralyzed. A few days after my score reached eight, it dropped back to 7.9. What on earth have I done? Woo hoo woo hoo)
