"Guards! Call the guards quickly to protect the emperor!"
Drawing out his sword with a loud sound, Li Xingke remembered his mission at all times. Even in his dream, he had to protect the emperor's safety. However, with his shouts, he should have been extremely panicked. But the eunuchs stood with dull expressions, like meaningless puppets, adding a strange atmosphere to everything.
"Star... star carved."
Jiang Lihua stood up tremblingly and hid behind Li Xingke. For a little girl who was only thirteen years old, she would naturally feel frightened by the scene in front of her.
"Your Majesty, get on the boat quickly!"
Seeing the other party getting closer and closer, Li Xing immediately made a decision. Protecting the emperor's safety was the most important thing. Shen Fu saw their intention and gently scratched Emilia's palm with his fingers. In the trial, this action means that she blocks the opponent's retreat.
With just a gentle wave of his hand, the slowly spreading ice accelerated in vain, following their feet towards the pavilion in the lake. Three ice walls rose sharply, blocking the other directions of the pavilion, leaving only Facing Shen Fu and others below, the entire lake turned into a smooth skating rink.
cut...
Esdeath made a cold cry in her heart, but she had to admit that if she were allowed to do it, it would not be difficult to freeze the entire lake. But it would be impossible to make it so smooth and neat. She is also good at controlling ice, and Emilia's control The strength is not something she can match.
Facing Li Xingke who was holding a sword in front of him, before Shen Fu could say anything, Esdeath took a step forward, pulled out his sword fiercely, and then took it back, with a bang that accompanied Li Xingke all the time. The sword broke into several pieces and clinked on the ground, leaving only the hilt in his hand.
"You are not qualified to hold a sword in front of General Shen."
After saying this, he retreated behind Shen Fu, as if he was just a simple guard.
Li Xingke swallowed his saliva. He didn't see the opponent's sword draw clearly just now, and he didn't even feel the impact when the sword in his hand was cut off. Shen Fu looked at Li Xingke whose shocked expression could not be suppressed, and the corner of his mouth twitched secretly. Come on, swordsmanship is probably the only thing Esdeath can compare to Emilia in now. He clearly wanted to approach her with a "friendly" attitude from the beginning.
"No need to be afraid, I have no ill intentions towards you."
He waved his hands gently, and the invisible chain of darkness was activated, tying up Li Xing who was standing in front of him and pulling him aside. Then he looked at the young daughter Emperor who was about to cry with a gentle smile. He indeed did not hurt her. mean.
"Xing Ke, return Xing Ke to me."
Jiang Lihua stretched out her hand to hold Li Xingke who was tied up. Shen Fu frowned slightly, pulled Li Xingke further, blocked his mouth, and then stood in front of the emperor.
"With all due respect, since you are the emperor of this country, please show some responsibility. You cannot obey the opinions of a military attaché on everything. I need to make sure that I am talking to you, not to these eunuchs. , or this military attaché.”
The Loli Emperor is obviously more controllable than Li Xingke, who is proficient in strategy. Shen Fu really hopes that she can have a little bit of her own ideas, not too much, just enough to affect Li Xingke. Otherwise, the emperor's identity will really not exist. Doesn't make any sense anymore.
"You, what do you want? I, I can't give you much."
As if she really realized that Li Xingke, who had been guarding her all the time, could do nothing else, Jiang Lihua bit her lower lip gently, wiped the tears that overflowed from her eyes, and looked at Shen Fu timidly.
"On behalf of China, I am here to negotiate an alliance with you. Of course, your military attache can also participate as an auxiliary officer, but I hope you can decide whether to sign this alliance with your own will."
Shen Fu stretched out his right hand and gently pressed the national emblem inlaid on the left chest of the robe, and loosened the chain on Li Xingke. The last words were also addressed to him. I hope he can recognize it at this time. own identity.
"...Your Majesty, General Shen from China, please take a seat."
After Li Xingke was silent for a while, he straightened his clothes, exhaled slowly, and resumed his etiquette as a guard of the emperor. Naturally, he could understand the meaning of Shen Fu's last words. The Huaxia Kingdom... He has never heard of such a country, but the current situation cannot help him not paying attention to it.
"Star... star carved."
Jiang Lihua sat obediently on one side of the stone table in the pavilion. She still couldn't help but turn her head and look at Li Xingke, who was standing behind her. The tension on her face was clearly visible. Although she was the emperor, she had always been able to decide by herself. Things happen very rarely, and the current situation comes so suddenly.
"Your Majesty, since the alliance was proposed by an envoy from another country, Your Majesty should make the decision. General Shen, you may begin."
Li Xingke first bowed slightly to Jiang Lihua, and then looked at Shen Fu who was sitting across from the stone table. In any case, since the other party loosened the restrictions on him and showed a negotiation attitude, it seemed that he came with a certain degree of sincerity. .
"On behalf of the Huaxia Kingdom, I hope that the emperor of your country can hand over a letter of credence declaring that the Chinese Federation will become a vassal state of the Huaxia Kingdom."
Shen Fu nodded slightly, the smile on his face did not change at all, but what he said made Li Xingke's face change drastically.
"This is impossible! Are you planning to occupy the entire Chinese Federation by holding the Emperor hostage!?"
No matter who is suddenly asked to make his country a vassal state of a country he has never heard of, he will have the same reaction as Li Xingke. The first thing that comes to mind is that the other party wants to hold the emperor hostage and control the entire Chinese Federation.
"No, the proposal of this covenant is very reasonable."
Facing the futilely tense atmosphere, Shen Fu still kept a smile on his face. He waved his hand gently, and a smooth ice appeared out of thin air. There were various images in it, such as a huge war fortress, artillery all over the sky, Countless ferocious monsters and meteorites piercing the sky and the earth were the result of the Zhanchi War that had just ended, mixed with the scene of Esdeath freezing countless alien races.
"As you can see, we, China, are from outside the world, a country that controls an extremely vast territory, has strong military power and economic wealth, and is fully qualified to become the suzerain of your country. And after this alliance is confirmed, His Majesty Jiang Lihua will become the emperor appointed by our country, enjoy the rights granted by our country, and become the true symbol of this country. Of course, he can also realize his own wishes, whether it is to leave the Forbidden City, travel around the world, or even have a glimpse of the world beyond. The scenery is no problem.”
The vassal nation covenant, which was not available in Grunica, seems to be available in this country. It is a "vassal nation" that has been redefined by a large number of experts for countries in other worlds.
