Beauty and the Bodyguard

The Emperor of the Fire Empire was really confused at that time!

Are you kidding me? Succession, usurpation and restoration... Do you want to be so busy?

You are just busy with your own business, can you please stop playing tricks on us?

Then he set up his posture and made a few tentative attacks. You told me that Sima Yi was back, the blood ghost was back... In fact, you were just digging a hole for us to jump in, right?

If you don’t come back early or come back later, choosing this time is definitely a trap, right?

The emperor of the Fire Empire burst into tears and quickly ordered the withdrawal of troops.

Then, he sent important ministers to rush to the capital of the Hongshang Empire, firstly to attend Liu Ziyu's second enthronement ceremony, and secondly to discuss peace talks.

The first one to arrive was indeed the envoy from the Fire Empire. When he arrived in the imperial capital, he didn't even bother to settle in. He just brought gifts and asked to see Liu Ziyu.

Of course, it would be more effective to go to Lin Yi directly, but he didn't dare!

Liu Ziyu, His Majesty the Emperor, seems to be more talkative than Sima Yi, the commander of Blood Ghost.

However, when the envoy from the Fire Empire saw Liu Ziyu, he also saw Lin Yi beside him.

"The foreign minister pays homage to the Naduo Illusion Martial Alliance, Vice President Sima of the Fighting Association, His Majesty the Emperor of the Hongshang Empire!"

The envoy from the Fire Empire paid homage to them without any hesitation, and his names for Lin Yi and Liu Ziyu were also correct.

Although this is the Hongshang Empire and Liu Ziyu is the emperor of the Hongshang Empire, Lin Yi is from the Martial Alliance and is also the vice president of the Fighting Association!

This position is a big deal for their empire!

Even if their fire emperor comes, he still needs to be greeted.

Although these empires also have sea-splitting masters who contribute to the martial alliance, they are all fighting on the front lines, and Lin Yi is the boss of these people and the vice president of the combat association!

"Foreign Minister, I would like to first thank Vice-President Sima for his dedicated efforts to safeguard peace for our Illusion Martial Alliance, and then congratulate His Majesty for rectifying the chaos, returning to the throne, and returning the Hongshang Empire to a prosperous world! Originally, our Emperor heard that His Majesty was trapped and was preparing to mobilize troops to rescue him, but he didn't To think that Vice President Sima drove away the false emperor with one person!"

"Vice-President Sima is indeed the vice-president of the Martial Alliance Combat Association. His combat prowess is beyond words!"

This guy can also say that he just turned the invasion of the Fire Empire into a righteous man who came to rescue Liu Ziyu!

Of course, everyone just listens to these words, and no one takes them seriously, including this messenger.

"So, I would also like to thank the Emperor of the Fire Empire for sending troops to invade the territory of our Hongshang Empire?"

Liu Ziyu smiled indifferently and said coldly: "The emperor of your country is really a messenger of justice, so concerned about some internal disputes in our country!"

"A country of brothers, a country of brothers! Everyone should look after each other, as we should!"

The envoy of the Fire Empire was very thick-skinned, and he could say such embarrassing things as a matter of course: "Of course, this time His Majesty can return to the throne, and we, the Fire Empire, are also very happy. In order to avoid any misunderstandings, we sent foreign ministers here. Communicate one or two.”

"The reason why we sent out troops before was entirely to help His Majesty conquer the enemy. Now that the dust has settled, our army will naturally go back. In order to congratulate Your Majesty, we have prepared a gift here for Vice President Sima and Your Majesty to accept. !”

The envoy of the Fire Empire took out a scroll of brocade silk that he carried with him, held it in both hands and stepped forward, waiting for the eunuch beside Liu Ziyu to come down and take it away.

Liu Ziyu took a look and immediately handed it to Lin Yi: "Cousin, the Fire Empire wants to cede five cities and affiliated areas on the border between the two countries as a gift. What do you think?"

Lin Yi took it and glanced at it, with a sneer on his lips.

How else to watch? The Fire Empire is scared!

Therefore, the other party wanted to use the method of ceding territory and paying compensation to please the Hongshang Empire and try to calm the anger of Lin Yi and Liu Ziyu.

The five cities are just a preliminary test. If Lin Yi shows no dissatisfaction at all, it is estimated that the Fire Empire will immediately increase its chips.

Compared to being hated by Lin Yi, what are some mere cities? It is not a problem to directly cede a title kingdom.

"I accept it, you should keep the city for yourselves!"

After waving his hand, Lin Yi snorted coldly and threw the brocade silk to the Fire Empire envoy.

The envoy's heart suddenly sank, and he secretly thought that this price could not satisfy Sima Yi's appetite!

It doesn't matter, this is all expected.

"Vice President Sima, His Majesty the Emperor, if you feel that the gift is too light, we can still discuss it..."

How was the Shanlian Empire destroyed? Just 800 blood ghosts swept across the entire Shanlian Empire!

In the past, when the Fire Empire and the Shanlian Empire fought, the outcome would be a 50-50 split.

So there must be no excuse for Sima Yi to go on an expedition!

Besides, Sima Yi is now the vice president of the Martial Alliance Fighting Association. Even if the Fire Empire is destroyed, the Martial Alliance will probably not blame him.

After all, what the Fighting Association of the Martial Alliance does every day is to protect the safety of human beings in the Naduo illusion area, and rush to wherever there is danger.

For a vice-president of the Fighting Association who is dedicated to humanity, but there is a fire in the backyard, and someone comes back to extinguish the person who started the fire, that is perfectly normal.

To put it bluntly, Lin Yi destroyed the Fire Empire, and it probably didn’t matter in the end. Who told you to commit suicide?

"No need!"

Lin Yi flatly refused.

The envoy of the Fire Empire almost exploded with nervousness. He was not even given a chance to finish talking about his bargaining chip. Does he really want to take this opportunity to go to the Fire Empire?

"Vice President Sima, how about letting the foreign minister finish his words? I will definitely satisfy the Vice President and His Majesty!"

There were drops of sweat on the forehead of the Fire Empire envoy, for he was afraid that the Hongshang Empire had already made up its mind to fight.

"I said, no need!"

Lin Yi looked coldly at the Fire Empire envoy below: "If there is a need, I will pick it up myself. You don't need to deliver it!"

As soon as he said this, the envoy of the Fire Empire knelt down on the spot.

This is the worst possible situation. How can we turn it around?

Is the Fire Empire coming to an end?

The envoy from the Fire Empire, who was sweating profusely, was even thinking about surrendering the entire Fire Empire to the Hongshang Empire now. Would it be more promising?

While he was thinking wildly, he heard Lin Yi continue to say: "I already understand the emperor of the Fire Empire! From now on, the two countries can be a brotherly state! After all, peace is the last word, I, Vice President Now we represent the Martial Alliance, so we like peace and don’t like casual wars!”

The envoy of the Fire Empire suddenly looked confused. He was a little unprepared for this reversal of the ending. Happiness came too fast and he was really not used to it!

However, the messenger suddenly figured it out again.
