"This is your queen, are you really willing to give her up?"

Seeing this Davis put forward such conditions.

Lei Dong was surprised.

He originally thought that this would be difficult, but he seemed to have underestimated the temptation of the throne to the man in front of him.

Lei Dong had no intention of annexing the entire Douluo Continent.

In fact, it had nothing to do with him.

He was just pushed to this position by Bibi Dong.

Now, as long as the two empires surrender, the matter can be resolved satisfactorily.

In fact, the reason why Lei Dong sits in this position is because he can easily get beauties from all sides?

And right in front of him is another queen who has come to his doorstep!

That would be great.

"Your Majesty, this is our Xing Luo Empire's loyalty to you. I hope you will be satisfied! I believe my queen will understand everything I do!"

At this moment, Davis seemed a little afraid to look at the queen.

Because everyone can feel that Zhu Zhuyun is probably feeling extremely scared and angry at this moment.

Zhu Zhuyun stood there. She could feel everyone's eyes were focused on her, with surprise, sympathy, and amusement.

She felt very complicated and never thought that she would become a victim of political games.

Her hands were shaking, and the fear and anger in her heart were intertwined, almost suffocating her.

Emperor Davis avoided her gaze. He knew how cruel this decision was for Zhu Zhuyun, but for the future of the Xing Luo Empire and for his own throne, he seemed to have no other choice.

Lei Dong observed Zhu Zhuyun with interest, as if evaluating her value.

He did not immediately respond to Davis' proposal, but took a sip of wine slowly, and then slowly said: "Your Majesty Davis, I feel your sincerity. However, it seems that it is not enough to just let the queen stay as a hostage."

Davis's face changed, and he asked nervously, "What else do you need?"

Lei Dong stood up, walked to Zhu Zhuyun, walked around her, and looked at her carefully.

Zhu Zhuyun felt a chill rising from the soles of her feet, and she tried hard not to let her body show fear.

"Empress Zhu Zhuyun is indeed a beauty, and compared with my beloved concubine Zhu Zhuqing, each has its own merits."

Lei Dong exclaimed, then turned to Davis, "In addition to the queen as a hostage, I also need some sincerity from the Xingluo Empire."

"What sincerity?"

Davis clenched his fists and his voice was a little hoarse.

Lei Dong smiled slightly and put forward his conditions: "I need the Xingluo Empire to pay tribute to the Wuhun Empire every year, including rare resources, treasures and some special talents. Of course, I will also guarantee the queen's treatment in the Wuhun Empire and let her live a carefree life."

Emperor Davis was silent. He knew what this condition meant to the Star Luo Empire, but he also understood that if he did not agree, the Star Luo Empire might face a greater crisis.

Zhu Zhuyun looked at Davis, her eyes full of pleading.

But Davis avoided her gaze. He couldn't face Zhu Zhuyun's desperate eyes.

"I agree."

Davis finally uttered these three words with difficulty, his heart filled with pain and self-blame.

When Zhu Zhuyun heard this answer, her body softened and she almost fell to the ground.

Her heart felt as if it was cut by a sharp knife. She had never imagined that the husband she loved so much would abandon her for power.

Seeing this, Zhu Zhuqing felt mixed emotions. She walked to Zhu Zhuyun and comforted her softly, "Sister, don't be sad. I will take care of you."

Zhu Zhuyun looked at Zhu Zhuqing, a hint of doubt and distrust flashed in her eyes.

She didn't understand why her sister became the imperial concubine of the Wuhun Empire and why she appeared by her side at this time.

Lei Dong looked at Davis and nodded with satisfaction: "Very good, Your Majesty Davis, you made a wise choice. From now on, the Xingluo Empire and the Wuhun Empire are allies."

The negotiation ended with Zhu Zhuyun's sacrifice and the surrender of the Xingluo Empire.

After the initial shock and despair, Zhu Zhuyun gradually calmed down.

She is a smart and strong woman. When she realized that she could not change the status quo, she chose to accept reality and find her own foothold.

In the palace of the Wuhun Empire, Zhu Zhuyun spent several days in deep thought.

She knew that her husband Davis had made a difficult choice in order to preserve the throne and the future of the Star Luo Empire.

Although her heart was filled with pain and loss, she also understood that as a queen, her fate had long been closely linked to the rise and fall of the empire.

Late one night, Zhu Zhuyun summoned Zhu Zhuqing.

The two sisters sat opposite each other in the soft moonlight, with a resolute light flashing in Zhu Zhuyun's eyes.

"younger sister,"

Zhu Zhuyun said softly, "I know you have many doubts about me, but now I need your help."

Zhu Zhuqing held Zhu Zhuyun's hand, her eyes full of concern: "Sister, no matter what you need, I will do my best to help you."

Zhu Zhuyun took a deep breath and said firmly: "Sister, I have decided. I am willing to remarry Lei Dong. But before that, I need you to help me tell him my decision."

When Zhu Zhuqing heard this decision, she was stunned.

She didn't expect Zhu Zhuyun to make such a choice, but then she realized that this might be the sacrifice Zhu Zhuyun made to protect himself and the Xingluo Empire.

"Sister, have you really thought it through?" Zhu Zhuqing asked cautiously.

Zhu Zhuyun nodded, her eyes revealing a hint of determination: "Yes, I have thought about it. In this place, if I can get Lei Dong's favor, maybe I can get more protection for the Xingluo Empire."

Zhu Zhuqing was silent for a moment, then said seriously: "Okay, sister, I will help you tell His Majesty Lei Dong."

The next day, Zhu Zhuqing found Lei Dong and told him Zhu Zhuyun's decision.

After hearing this, Lei Dong's eyes flashed with surprise, but it was quickly replaced by joy.

"Oh? Queen Zhu Zhuyun is willing to marry me?"

Lei Dong's mouth curled up into a playful smile, "This is really an unexpected surprise. Go and tell Queen Zhu Zhuyun that I, Lei Dong, am willing to accept her, and she will become the imperial concubine of my Wuhun Empire."

Zhu Zhuqing returned to Zhu Zhuyun's residence and told her Lei Dong's reply.

After hearing this, Zhu Zhuyun felt a little complicated, but she knew she had no way out.

But the next moment, the door of the palace was pushed open.

Lei Dong's figure appeared at the door with a smile on his face.

"Great! It seems that you two sisters can be together forever from now on. Forget about that coward from the Xing Luo Empire, Zhu Zhuyun!"
