Stand-in eunuch: I pamper the harem for the emperor

Chapter 793 A thorn in the eye
The two countries are at war, so both sides avoided the topic and just talked about local customs.

Three rounds of wine, five flavors of food.

Suddenly, the Imperial Master Kuang Wuya looked at Lu Hao and asked in a low voice: "Your Majesty, what do you think of the Ninth Princess?"

"The country is beautiful and fragrant. She is indeed a beauty of a generation!"

Lu Hao responded with a smile.

"Since the emperor is so satisfied with the ninth princess, Zheng Guo is willing to marry the ninth princess to the emperor. I don't know what the emperor means..."

Master Guoshi hesitated to speak.

"To be honest, Sir, the two countries are already at war. It seems a little late to talk about peace and marriage."

Lu Hao declined politely and responded with a smile.

"Your Majesty, the foreign ministers think that the Zheng Kingdom and the Chinese Empire can turn the war into friendship, so as to avoid the loss of life and the suffering of the people. If the Emperor is willing to withdraw his troops, can you make any demands?"

National Preceptor Kuang Wuya continued to persuade.

The Ninth Princess, who was chatting with Xuanyuan Lingyu, immediately turned her head and looked over, wanting to see Lu Hao's attitude.

"Master National Preceptor, what do you think is the purpose of me raising an army and mobilizing troops to expedition to the Western Regions?"

Lu Hao asked calmly.

"Of course it's to satisfy your desire for conquest. Didn't the Emperor long ago promise to rule the world?"

The Ninth Princess interrupted angrily.

"Yes, I just want to unify the world, and conquering the Western Region is just the first step."

Lu Hao nodded slightly, but did not deny it.

"So you start a big war and attack our Zheng State. Don't you know that many people will die in war? You are an executioner! A tyrant! A murderer!"

The Ninth Princess cursed angrily.

"I do want to unify the continent. Not just me, I believe every wise emperor, monarch, and king on the continent has this ambition. Do you dare to say that your father has no ambition to expand the territory?"

Lu Hao's face darkened and he asked in a cold voice.

"No! Absolutely not!"

The Ninth Princess denied it loudly, but she remembered that her wise and powerful father seemed to have many wishes to expand the territory.

"No? If it really wasn't, Zheng would not have taken advantage of the civil strife between Jin and Shu to immediately send troops to occupy so much land. Facts speak louder than words. Don't you think your denial is funny?"

Lu Hao sneered again and again.

The Ninth Princess was stunned for a moment, her face was a little embarrassed, and her pretty face turned red.

"What the emperor said is true. The ruler of the country has plans to expand the territory, but the country's strength is too weak to support it."

The Imperial Master frowned and nodded slightly.

"I originally just sent people to the Western Regions to establish diplomatic relations with the countries in the Western Regions. However, the countries in the Western Regions headed by the Zhou Dynasty regarded the Chinese Empire as a thorn in their side and wanted to get rid of it quickly. They sent troops to intercept and kill the envoys. .”

"Excuse me, is this the way of hospitality in the Western Regions? Is this kind of Western Region worthy of the respect of our Chinese Empire? Is it worthy of our mercy?"

Faced with Lu Hao's continuous questioning, the Ninth Princess and the Imperial Master were completely confused.

"The most disgusting thing is that Jin and Shu were invaded and plundered by the Xixia Dynasty last year, and their national strength declined significantly. The Zhou Dynasty took the opportunity to provoke civil strife in the two countries, united with neighboring countries, and immediately divided the territories of the two countries, causing the people of the two countries to They are displaced and their lives are in ruins, so why doesn’t anyone stand up and speak out for them?”

Lu Hao's voice became louder and louder.

"The people of Jin and Shu are hungry, and they have to suffer burning, killing, robbery, rape and abuse from the surrounding countries. It is I who have mobilized tens of millions of loads of food from the empire to support the two countries for free. Otherwise, once winter enters, the two countries will They will starve to death thousands of miles away, with corpses lying across thousands of miles, and at least [-]% of the people will die in this winter." "It is precisely when the leaders of the two countries saw this that they begged me to join the Chinese Empire. However, what are the countries around you doing? They are robbing, killing, and grabbing territory... You are the real executioners! Your king is the real tyrant!"

Lu Hao is righteous and domineering.

The Ninth Princess and the Imperial Master were shocked in their hearts, knowing that what Lu Hao said was the truth, and due to the invasion of surrounding countries, the death toll in Jin and Shu increased dramatically every day.

If we really want to talk about executioners or tyrants, why is Zheng Guo not one of them?

"I remember that when the two countries joined the Chinese Empire, they issued a statement asking you to withdraw from the territories of the two countries. But until now, the four countries around you still occupy many cities in the two countries, and there is no retreat at all. trace."

"Since you, the Four Kingdoms, have turned a deaf ear to my words, I will make you remember. I said that I would destroy the Four Kingdoms. Even if I use the entire strength of the Chinese Empire, I must destroy the Four Kingdoms!"

Lu Hao was very domineering and filled with evil spirits.

"What's going on? You can't defeat me, and now you want to send a princess to ask for peace? The leader of the Zheng Kingdom treats his daughters as goods and trades them. Is this kind of leader still worthy of your respect? Is he worthy of your following? Worthy of the love of his subjects. ?"

Lu Hao's repeated questions were deafening.

"The Emperor is wise! The Emperor is mighty!"

Xuanyuan Lingyu and several lieutenants immediately clasped their fists and shouted, obviously convinced of him.

"Your Majesty is absolutely right. Starting today, I will be loyal to Emperor Yongtai until death!"

General Tian was so moved that he knelt down directly.

"We are willing to follow General Tian and be loyal to Emperor Yongtai from today!"

General Tian's two lieutenants also fell to their knees at the same time.

The National Preceptor Kuang Wuya and the Ninth Princess were shocked by the scene in front of them!

"Three generals, please rise. As long as you are loyal to me, I will never treat my soldiers badly."

Lu Hao's tone softened a bit.

"You...you can't say that about my father. I...I came here voluntarily."

The Ninth Princess hesitated and defended, but seemed even more weak.

"You came here voluntarily? Do you think I don't know about the Zheng Kingdom's plan to delay the war? Don't you know about your hypocrisy? Don't you know that you came with a purpose?"

Lu Hao turned around and looked at the Ninth Princess coldly, who shuddered involuntarily.

"I know that the State of Zheng has sent people to ask for reinforcements, and I also know that the King of Zhou has mobilized an army of 20, and the State of Yue has also mobilized an army of 20, preparing to form a three-nation coalition with Zheng's [-] troops to deal with me together. .”

"However, I can tell you frankly that if you are stalling for time, don't you know that I am also waiting for the opportunity?"

Lu Hao sneered again and again.

The Imperial Master and Ninth Princess, who were originally so brilliant in the future, are now completely confused.

"Are you waiting here on purpose, just biding your time? Why?"

The Ninth Princess couldn't bear it anymore and asked anyway.

"It's okay to tell you. I want to regain the territory of Jin and Shu. If we attack city by city, it will be too slow!"

"If we can decide the outcome in one battle and defeat the coalition forces of your three countries, I believe that the three countries will immediately issue orders to retreat! I will be able to take back the land of the two countries without any effort."

Lu Hao didn't hide anything, but told the truth.
