The Princess’s Inner Thoughts Were Overheard by Her Emperor Father

One day later, King Zhou Ling left the scene and returned to Zhou Sui. Xiao Yunzhou came to see him off with his respected concubine and his beloved little princess.

This is the etiquette that all allies should have, but as the emperor, Xiao Yunzhou could only send him to the gate of the capital and then return.

But this time, Xiao Yunzhou and his party were not ready to say goodbye to King Zhou Ling when they arrived outside the capital.

King Zhou Ling felt a little embarrassed and looked at Xiao Yunzhou, "Brother Xiao's sincerity, Zhou Sui must remember it. Brother Xiao, please go back quickly."

But Xiao Yunzhou waved his hand and blushed.

Hey, where was he sending King Zhou Ling off!

He had listened to Xiao Gege's "Eye of the Eight Diagrams" fairy voice and knew that King Yuan would "take action in three days." There would probably be scouts or spies operating in Jingguo's important military areas.

His imperial edict for the city-defending generals in various places to be on guard against 'spies' had been rushed eight hundred miles ago and sent to all camps.

But Xiao Yunzhou was still a little worried and was planning to leave the capital to inspect some important places.

Ten miles or a hundred miles to send King Zhou Ling away, there is no such thing!

He was just stopping by for a patrol!

Xiao Yunzhou was thinking about it, and when he looked up and saw King Zhou Ling's moved expression, he felt a little hot behind his ears, "Ahem, the friendship between you and Jing Zhou has lasted for generations, so what if I send you a hundred miles away?"

King Zhou Ling was startled, and King Chu, who had traveled all over the world and came with nothing to do, was stunned when he heard this.

When did they, Jing Zhou, have such ally feelings?

They have never sat down and discussed the follow-up cooperation between the two countries!

King Zhou Ling coughed slightly and the corners of his mouth twitched.

He has indeed changed his mind about Jing Guo a lot now, and he hates Yuan Guo. He is now eager to go back, and he is also determined to refuse Yuan's offer of borrowing money.

Yuan attacked Jing, but King Zhou Ling was not prepared to interfere!

But at this moment, King Zhou Ling looked at Princess Ronghua standing behind Xiao Yunzhou and standing with Concubine Liu, and saw that his niece's eyes were also red, and she was reluctant to leave him, the imperial uncle.

"Just let Ronghua give it to me." King Zhou Ling was not willing to leave his niece in Jingguo, a place she was not familiar with.

But Ronghua insists on this. Today she has heavy dark circles under her eyes. I heard that she is obsessed with the male protagonist's storybook "The First Immortal King".

The niece had suffered so much, but now that she could have some fun in Jingguo and feel relieved, King Zhou Ling could only agree.

King Zhou Ling thought about it and waved to Ronghua, "Ronghua, you can stay in Jingguo for a while, but promise to Uncle Huang that you will come back before June. Do you still remember your father's birthday?"

King Zhou Ling gave Princess Ronghua an elder's warning look, "Celebrating your father's birthday is a big deal. You must not be willful. You must return to Zhou Sui."

Yuan Bu borrowed the road from Zhou Sui and had to pass through the mountains between Shengguo and them to reach the border of Jingguo.

According to the speed of the army, the attack on Jingguo should be after June.

Niece Ronghua, it should be safe to return to Zhou Sui in June.

"My niece knows, uncle Huang can rest assured." Ronghua agreed naturally.

King Zhou Ling couldn't help but nodded and glanced at Xiao Yunzhou.

He now truly feels that Jingguo is extraordinary and respects Xiao Yunzhou, the emperor of Jingguo.

But if Yuan and Jing were at war, Zhou Sui didn't want to intervene.

Otherwise, what should the people of Zhou Sui do?

Even though King Zhou Ling was sincerely grateful to Xiao Yunzhou for saving his niece these days, he also sincerely hated King Yuan, but he could not repay his kindness or avenge himself at the cost of the lives of Zhou people and soldiers.

Every step the king takes is related to thousands of lives!

"Xiao Yunzhou, you have to be careful about the Yuan Kingdom." King Zhou Ling sighed and said to Xiao Yunzhou.

"Prince Yuan is ready to make a move. I'm afraid he will act quickly even without the help of our Zhou Sui. You border city sergeants must increase your inspections."

"What I said the day before yesterday is not false. From now on, as long as I live, I, Zhou Sui, will no longer have an alliance with the Yuan Dynasty, and I will no longer help the Yuan Dynasty. All rice, grain, and weapons will be supplied at a high price, and I will pay Yuan Dynasty to the Yuan King." Kaizhi’s evil deeds demand compensation, but that’s all.”

"I will not send troops to attack Yuan, nor will I help them fight you."

"If we, the spies of the Zhou Kingdom, learn about the movement of the Yuan soldiers, I will send a message to you, and I can sell the gunpowder produced by Zhou Sui to Jingguo at a discount of 10%."

King Zhou Ling narrowed his eyes, he could only help Jing Guo get here.

[Is this already King Zhou Ling’s greatest sincerity? The current collection rate of the hero King Zhou Ling is 71%. 】

Xiao Chuchu looked through the system data, [The system profile of his character is that he is rational and cautious, and does not fight uncertain battles. 】

[I don’t know if he will send troops to help us when the collection level reaches 100%. 】

[It must be difficult. He is also a king who loves the people and does not want to fight casually. 】

Xiao Chuchu's words deeply resonated with Xiao Yunzhou.

Xiao Yunzhou originally didn't want to have a heart-to-heart relationship with King Zhou Ling, and he didn't tell the truth even when we were seeing each other all the way. But at this moment, his daughter's heavenly message made Xiao Yunzhou look at King Zhou with respect.

"Brother Zhou, I am the same as you." Xiao Yunzhou looked at King Zhou, "I don't want to go to war either. Life will be ruined and the people will suffer."

Xiao Yunzhou understood King Zhou Ling very well, "If the situation between you and me were reversed today and Zhou Sui was attacked by the Yuan Dynasty, I, the State of Jing, would not send troops to help you Zhou Sui."

"If you die, if Zhou Sui's country is destroyed, Jingguo will only watch."

"...!"

King Zhou Ling twitched the corner of his mouth. Why did it sound so unpalatable to him when he told the truth?

"Humph." King Zhou Ling looked away.

Xiao Yunzhou didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "What? I just allow you to watch, but it's not my turn?"

King Zhou Ling was startled.

【Huh? King Zhou Ling's collection has increased to 75%? 】

Xiao Chuchu blinked, and Xiao Yunzhou was shocked by his daughter's good news.

Xiao Yunzhou couldn't help looking at King Zhou Ling, and almost said the line of the male protagonist in "The First Immortal" - Don't love me, it won't work.

Who would have thought that he would make King Zhou Ling like Jingguo again with just a few words?

Inexplicable!

Xiao Yunzhou complained, but he couldn't help but raise his mouth, feeling a feeling of regret for not meeting King Zhou Ling earlier and cherishing each other.

Although the kings of their two countries are far apart on weekdays, they have some tacit understanding when thinking about problems!

But after King Zhou Ling snorted coldly, he thought deeply, "Brother Xiao, are you... provoking me?"

King Chu nodded, "Xiao Yunzhou, are you provoking us?"

Xiao Yunzhou: "???" Hmm? Where?

The King of Chu narrowed his eyes, "The lips and teeth are cold. If the Yuan destroyed Jing, can Zhou Sui, who is in the middle, be stable?"

"Can our Chu be safe?"

"Xiao Yunzhou, are you mocking Brother Zhou and me?" The old fox of Chu has a lot of thoughts, and his face is full of thoughtful expressions of 'seeing through Xiao Yunzhou's hidden meaning'.

"If we don't help Jing today, it may be our turn for Zhou Sui and Chu to be attacked by Yuan tomorrow. And if one country is destroyed, there will be one less country's military force to compete with Yuan. In the end, none of our three countries will benefit."

"Is this what you mean?"

As expected, King Zhou Ling also showed a tangled expression after hearing what the King of Chu said.

【King Zhou Ling's collection degree rose to 77%. 】

Xiao Chuchu was surprised, [I didn't expect my father to be the smartest among the three. 】

Xiao Yunzhou: "......!"

He blushed.

Xiao Yunzhou coughed lightly, raised his head and puffed out his chest, "Indeed, Brother Chu, Brother Zhou, that's what I mean, the lips and teeth are cold."

"When one side is in danger, we stand by and watch, and when we are trapped, we will cry out to the sky and the earth, but the earth will not work. Looking around, there is no military force that can fight against Yuan!"

"And now, Chu has a lot of iron ore, Zhou produces gunpowder, and my Jing can make advanced fire guns."

"Wu Yunguo has a lot of cavalry."

"We four parties join forces, anyone, anywhere, who wants to occupy a blade of grass or a tree in our four countries is daydreaming!"

[King Zhou Ling's collection degree has risen to 78%! 】

Xiao Yunzhou's performance skills are already very skilled.

One word made King Zhou Ling and King Chu tremble.

In addition, Xiao Yunzhou chatted with him on the way and sent King Zhou Ling to a hundred miles outside the city... two hundred miles...

King Zhou Ling was really touched and a little ashamed, "I will seriously consider Brother Xiao's suggestion of a four-nation alliance. Brother Xiao, there is really no need to send me off, really, you can go back."

Xiao Yunzhou coughed lightly and saw the hub for entering Beijing almost in front of him - Luoshan City, one of the key defense areas.

He discussed with the Ministry of War overnight and felt that the Yuan Dynasty was most likely to send spies to sneak into the border of Jing State and must enter Luoshan City.

Xiao Yunzhou was about to nod to King Zhou Ling when he saw a commoner riding a horse in the distance.

He quickly turned over and dismounted in front of him.

"Master," the commoner knelt down in front of Xiao Yunzhou, "As you expected, two suspicious people entered Luoshan City this morning, and they are likely to be spies from the Yuan State."

Xiao Yunzhou had a look of "he knew it", but the King of Chu and the King of Zhou were shocked.

The commoner looked at Xiao Yunzhou with admiration, "Master, everything is as you ordered. We have been pretending to be lax since yesterday. The soldiers are all old, weak, sick and disabled, and they look like they have been short of food for many days."

King Zhou and King Chu: "!"
