Would You Like to Have a Drink

The Shufei was originally favored by Emperor Yu because of her beauty, and the fifth princess naturally inherited her mother’s favor. She was pampered and raised in the deep palace since she was a child, and she was domineering and arrogant. It was said that when Empero Yu had a daughter in his old age, he was so careful that he was afraid of dropping her when he held her in his palm, and he was afraid of melting her when he held her in his mouth. Even a cloud dress for the fifth princess had to be woven by thirty embroiderers working day and night for thirty days to get it, and it was extremely luxurious.

(t/n: afraid of dropping her when he held her in his palm, and he was afraid of melting her when he held her in his mouth-commonly used to describe parents who overindulge in their children)

Not to mention the character of the fifth princess, whether she was favored or not. Such a delicate princess, at the time of the survival of the home country, the Emperor Yu still said that he would marry her to make peace, and he would marry her outside if he said so.

Zong Luo shook his head, disappointed in his heart.

No matter how much one was doted on, it’s just a few bites of sugar when one is free. If something really happened, it’s like an object being exchanged.

The last time he heard the news, Emperor Yu was the first to offer a batch of beauties to Emperor Yuan.

Sure enough, in a brain hollowed out by beauty and wine, besides his own throne, everything else could be abandoned, leaving nothing.

No wonder in his previous life, in order to make peace with the Great Yuan, the Emperor Yu was even so foolish as to use a decree to force the old general to death, to show his loyalty to the enemy country, which was absurd and ridiculous.

“Peace talks are impossible. In the past, my Father——”

Zong Luo paused. “When Emperor Yuan attacked the Ah Country, the Emperor Ah led his concubines and princes to kneel outside the palace, but he could not stop the advance of the iron cavalry of the Great Yuan.”

“Wait for the envoy to come tomorrow, and you tell him. The Great Yuan does not accept peace talks, either fight or die.”

Zong Luo didn’t know who was in charge of this battle in his previous life.

But he knew that in the face of all the envoys seeking peace, the generals of the Great Yuan would only have one answer.

The next day, the cavalry on the lookout tower observed that the soldiers in the auxiliary camp outside the distant city wall were moving, and hurriedly came to report. “Your Highness, there is a situation.”

Zong Luo picked up the bamboo tube made into a simple version of the telescope and looked into the distance.

Before he transmigrated inside the book, he was a science student. He was idle in the army and invented many secret technology gadgets, which had a lot of strange effects when marching and fighting.

Of course, because the world in the book already had unscientific things like internal strength and lightness skill, scientific things did not have as much effect as in the real world. But the practicality was still very high.

Soon, Zong Luo noticed that the other side was retreating and even took away the lookout tower.

The auxiliary camp was a forward camp outside the military camp used to observe and detect enemy situations.

If the auxiliary camp was also retreating, it was equivalent to exposing the main army camp to the enemy. Even with the city wall as a cover, it was a very dangerous thing.

Retreating ten miles meant retreating without fighting.

This obviously couldn’t be the intention of the iron-clad Lord Wu An.

Zong Luo put down the telescope and sighed in his heart.

Soon, the envoy from the Yu Country came running again.

This time, when he was checked by the Xuan Cavalry, he was familiar with the process and honestly unloaded all the things on his body.

Mu Yuanlong frowned and opened the package on his body with a sword. “What are these things?”

“In reply to General Mu, these are the maps brought by our Emperor.”

The envoy unfolded the paper in his hand. “The cities marked above, if the Great Yuan is interested, can pick and choose at will.”

He rubbed his hands. “Perhaps the expression was not clear yesterday, but the Emperor’s intention is absolutely real.”

Soon, this piece of paper was presented to the general’s desk.

Zong Luo spread it out and saw that it was a map of the territory of the Yu Country. Except for a few important cities around the Imperial City of the Yu Country, almost all other cities were marked.

He showed a sarcastic smile. “Wait for him to come tomorrow, and give this back to him.”

On the third day, the envoy’s face was obviously much more flustered.

According to the rules passed down on the battlefield, if peace talks were to be held, a consensus must be reached within three days. If it couldn’t be clarified within three days, it meant that the negotiations had failed, and both sides could start a war at any time.

In the past two days, the envoy from the Yu Country had already put forward most of the conditions, but there was still no sign of the Great Yuan loosening its mouth. On the last day, if the Great Yuan couldn’t be moved, the consequences would be unimaginable.

It was estimated that in the whole Yu Country, it only had the Emperor Yu and those royal ministers in the Imperial City who have long been corroded by money and beauty, and they were at ease, thinking that the Great Yuan would definitely agree in the peace talk.

In fact, the biggest treacherous minister of the Yu Country had already been transferring his assets in private, planning to escape to other places under a different guise, and continue to enjoy the benefits he had gained in the Yu Country over the years.

The envoy gritted his teeth. “If, if the Great Yuan agrees to retreat, my Yu Country is willing to voluntarily become a vassal state, paying tribute year after year.”

This was the final concession of the Emperor Yu.

As soon as these words came out, even Mu Yuanlong couldn’t help but be astonished.

No wonder the Emperor Yu was so carefree, it turned out that he had already made the worst plan.

However, in the next second, the prince, who was the same color as the snow, lifted the curtain of the tent, his tone calm. “Go back, rather than wasting your tongue here, it’s better to let Lord Wu An come out and set up a battle to welcome the fight.”

“This battle, the Great Yuan is bound to win. Yuanlong, see off the guest.”

Mu Yuanlong watched the envoy from the Yu Country’s face turn white all of a sudden, and he couldn’t even walk steadily.

They walked out of the temporary camp together.

In the next second, Mu Yuanlong saw that His Highness, who had hardly changed in the past month, and was almost without sorrow or joy, suddenly showed a fluctuation in his expression.

Although it was very slight, it was indeed the only time these days.

Mu Yuanlong looked up.

He saw a black tail suddenly appearing in the sky, which was almost the same color as the frost and snow, circling over the Xuan Cavalry camp.

If it were in the night, it might be hard to see. But in the daytime, it was as conspicuous as a grain of sand, clear and obvious.

That was a goshawk, an ugly goshawk.

However, this goshawk was as famous as its owner.

Simply because it was the goshawk of the King of Beining of the Great Yuan.
