An Empire as a Betrothal Gift

"How's the current battle going?" Wei Lian asked.

"Thanks for your great help." Ji Yue said, "The chances of winning are sure, but it's just a matter of time."

Originally, the three countries joined forces, but they failed to distance themselves from Qin.Now that the Chu State has turned against the water, and Yan and Lu have lost three generals, the victory of the Qin State is a certainty.

Xie Chen was still guarding Liang State, and Ji Yue sent another general, Sun Ju, to attack Lu State.The situation has been settled, he doesn't need to go on a personal expedition to boost morale, he just needs to sit in the rear and give orders.

"At most one month, this war should be over."

On the first day of December, it snowed in Qin State.

Qin and Chu are geographically close to each other. The winter in Chu is always snowy, and Qin has a similar climate.

Wei Lian stood outside the tent, with a thin and thin body in white clothes. The cold wind was blowing in front of him, and the fluttering sleeves made him look light and elegant, like a fairy.

He looked up at the boundless sky, reached out to catch a piece of falling snow, and said with emotion: "Winter is here."

Just as Ji Yue finished discussing with others in the tent, when he came out and saw this scene, his complexion sank, and he immediately ordered someone to take a thick fox fur and put it on Wei Lian.

While tying the belt for someone, he said angrily: "If it's snowing, don't stay in the tent properly, what should you do if you run out and catch a cold? You're still wearing such thin clothes, and you don't know how to put on a piece of clothing..."

Wei Lian was quite speechless: "How can I be so weak..."

"Shut up." Ji Yue tied a beautiful knot and gave him a hard look, "I don't want to listen to you, it makes people angry."

"...Pfft." Wei Lian suddenly hooked his lips and let out a laugh.

"stop laughing?"

I really don't care about my body!

Ji Yue really broke his heart for Wei Lian.

Wei Lian smiled: "I just remembered that now you are angry at me for standing in the snow for a while, and you are really a different person from a year ago."

He entered Qin in December last year, and it has been exactly one year so far, and it is also snowy.There was even more snow at that time.It's icy and snowy, and it's freezing for a long time.

At that time, Ji Yue didn't feel sorry for him at all.

Comparing Ji Yue's nervous appearance now, it really makes people feel emotional.

When mentioning a year ago, Ji Yue remembered that bad encounter again, and immediately lost his temper again.He shook his head helplessly, and pulled Wei Lian into the tent to keep warm around the stove.

"You were stupid at the time. You were obviously so powerful, and you didn't know how to protect your body with internal strength." When Ji Yue mentioned it, his heart ached. "You are so smart, but you just don't know how to take care of your own body."

"Am I stupid? I'm thinking about my own life." Wei Lian glanced at him, with a bit of resentment in his eyes, "Do you dare to say that if you find out that I know martial arts, you won't kill me right away?"

"..." Ji Yue thought about his character of killing grass and roots, and thought about the secret agents and assassins that no one survived except Rakshasa, and had to admit that Wei Lian was right.

He reluctantly said: "Okay, you are very smart."

Thank Wei Lian Bingxue for being smart and not letting him kill his future lover.

Just as he was talking, a carrier pigeon flew in from outside the tent and landed in Wei Lian's hands.

"It's a letter from Chu State." Wei Lian recognized that the pigeon was specially domesticated by Chu State.

He took down the letter, opened it and glanced at it roughly, then tore the letter into pieces, threw it into the stove and burned it to ashes, his expression remained unchanged.

Ji Yue asked, "What's the matter?"

"The news from Qiao Hongfei. Yeludan sent a letter to the state of Chu, wanting to join hands with me to kill you." Wei Lian looked sideways at Ji Yue, "Should I agree to his request? To avenge myself?"

Ji Yue said silently: "You asked me why, you tore up the letter."

This attitude is clearly uncooperative.

Wei Lian blinked, and proceeded to the next topic as if nothing had happened: "What's for dinner tonight?"

Ji Yue said, "How about braised fish? I remember you like it."

"Is there fresh fish in the barracks?"

"I'll catch you by the stream."

The two talked and laughed freely, and neither of them took this matter to heart.

In mid-December, Yan surrendered and voluntarily entered the territory of Qin State.

In late December, the Qin army approached the city, broke through King Lu's city, and took it as its own.

So far, among the six kingdoms, only the new king of Chu has not made a statement.The remaining Xia Kingdom has a weak force and was never involved in the turmoil in the first place.Today, the person who knows the current affairs is Junjie, and he directly submitted the letter of surrender, imitating the old Chu State who sent Prince Heng to come as a pledge to show his loyalty and avoid the suffering of war.

The reunification of the world is the general trend.

Everyone is waiting for King Qin to order to attack the last state of Chu.Chu's [-] troops had already been defeated. No matter how hard the new king tried to turn the tide, he would not be Qin's opponent.

However, to everyone's surprise, the King of Qin had no intention of attacking the Chu State.

This operation confuses many outsiders.

His Majesty the King of Qin is not the kind of indecisive person, why is he showing mercy to Chu's subordinates alone?

The few insiders thought to themselves, of course His Majesty would not go to attack Chu.Chu State is Wei Lian's turf, wouldn't it mean that the Dragon King Temple was flooded in a fight?

After the surrender of Yanlu, Ji Yue immediately returned to Yongping to deal with the matters after bringing the countries into the territory.Different countries have different customs, languages, and beliefs. How to unify governance is also a huge project.

Wei Lian expressed his understanding and offered to leave for a while. He went back to Chu State to get his dowry.

Chu State will eventually return to Qin, but it cannot be defeated by Qin.

At the beginning of spring in the first lunar month, when the auspicious snow heralds a good year, the long silent King Chuxi finally made a move. What was handed to the Qin State was neither a letter of war nor a letter of surrender, but a marriage agreement.

There was only one sentence on the letterhead.

"I would like to bring a country to marry. I wonder if His Majesty the King of Qin is willing?"

This sentence will spread all over the world in one day.

A meddler in the teahouse of the State of Qin sneered and said, "It's still our Majesty who is mighty and scares people to death. Chen Liang was destroyed, Yan Lu handed over the letter of surrender, and Xia sent the prince as a hostage. It's good for the King of Chu to deliver it directly to the door." I even posted it myself. What kind of marriage, it sounds good, isn’t it just for marriage? I don’t think about how a man who can’t have a son is worthy of being the queen of Qin, do you think it’s funny?”

There were several people in the teahouse burst into laughter, but most of them were silent.

A white-faced scholar frowned and said, "It's not appropriate to talk about the King of Chu like this."

The man held his toes high and said, "You are a defeated general, a lost dog, what's wrong?"

The scholar said with reason and evidence: "King Chu Xi used to be a prince, and had a relationship with His Majesty. Why can't it be from the heart?"

"A sour scholar, full of romantic thoughts, where is the sincerity of the emperor's family, he is just wise and safe!"

Another group of scholars took the case and said: "When the King of Chu was not afraid of life and death to solve the Jiangzhou plague for our Qin country, you still don't know where to hide to protect yourself! We are from Jiangzhou, so I don't want you to slander him here!"

Not to be outdone, the man said, "You are in Qin State, but your heart is towards the King of Chu. Are you worthy of the soldiers fighting on the front line!"

Another table of guests said in a deep voice: "We just came back from the battle at the front. In the battle at Yanguanling, if the king of Chu hadn't used the good strategy of not killing any soldiers, we don't know how many casualties we had! We also did the disaster relief in Jiangzhou." Let’s go, we can assure you that the King of Chu is definitely not a person who is greedy for life and afraid of death, you don’t want to treat the heart of a gentleman with the heart of a villain.”

Looking at his facial features, he was the head of a hundred people who had spoken to Wei Lian in Jiangzhou.

He was no longer an ordinary soldier back then. He charged into the battle against Lu this time and made great contributions.

This table is full of his comrades in arms, he has met the young master Lian of that day, so naturally he speaks for him.

When the man saw that he was a military master, he gave up three points of his courage, and the rest of his face was stern: "He, he is quite considerate of Qin State, I don't know if he is right for Chu State! He is also incompetent and foolish."

Xu Wenqing in the corner couldn't hold back, and raised his voice to sneer: "The king of Chu has the whole world in his heart, how can you and other villains understand? You said that King Chu Xi was incompetent, and you didn't look at how the original King Huai of Chu disturbed the state of Chu." It's a mess? Don't want to think about how the mess of Chu State came back to life in just a few months?"

That man was just a scoundrel who liked to catch attention. He thought that belittling the king of Chu in the Qin state would attract everyone's approval, and he didn't want to be attacked one after another.He is afraid of scholars on the one hand, and on the other hand, he dare not provoke the military master. Now he finally met a young man, and he immediately became excited: "You little brat, you haven't made any contribution to the Qin country, have you? You know what? The situation in Chu State."

But someone else said: "Hey, isn't this little doctor Xu?"

"Ah, it's true, it's the little doctor Xu in the palace! He often comes to the folk medical center for free consultations, and can solve many difficult and miscellaneous diseases. He cured my cough last time!"

Xu Wenqing often does good deeds and has a high reputation among the people. Now that he is recognized by others, he is not arrogant or impetuous, but said in a low voice: "To be honest, many of the prescriptions for difficult and miscellaneous diseases were taught to me by the King of Chu. He cares about all the people and never hides his personal interests, but what contribution have you made here to point out the country? Do you rely on your mouth?"

The man's face turned green and white, and he was completely speechless.

Who would have thought that a king of Chu would be so popular in Qin.

There were many discussions among the people about King Chu's request for marriage, and various conspiracy theories, true love theories, and interests-combining theories were spread, and people were more curious about how His Majesty King Qin would respond.

Do you tear up the letter and go to war directly, or do you agree to the marriage request to accept the king of Chu to go to Qinyuan to marry, or do you want the country to not beauties?

Ji Yue didn't make them wait too long.

Almost after receiving that sentence, he wrote a reply letter without hesitation, and spread it widely, blocking the mouths of everyone in the world.

"I can't ask for it. His Majesty the King of Chu will go to Qin from afar. I will go to the state of Chu alone, and I will use the mountains and rivers as an offer to marry my majesty. I hope that my beloved will stay together forever and never leave my head."

Shocked the world.

Chu State, Liangcheng.

After Wei Lian's letter passed, not only the Qin country was boiling, but the Chu country was even fried.

The peace faction was full of grief and indignation: "Your Majesty, you don't have to bear the burden of humiliation for Chu! No matter how difficult King Qin is to deal with, let's just surrender, why bother with yourself?"

Marrying yourself in the past is too expensive!

The main combat faction was filled with righteous indignation: "Your Majesty, he will fight when he comes! It is our honor to die for the country! Can An Neng live like this?"

His Majesty's various decisions are extremely wise, but this incident alone disappointed them, and they lost their heroism and kingly spirit.

Every decision made by King Chu Xi was impeccable, but this matter was a huge mistake.

Wei Lian ignored those voices.

They didn't know Ji Yue, but he did.

He was full of scheming and unscrupulous all his life, but he knew that when he married, he did not involve in any schemes, compromises, balances, and sacrifices.

All because of willingness.

Pitching is worthy of heaven and earth, praise and criticism have their own spring and autumn.

How shocking the world is, how the whole country is in an uproar, who is not favored and wished well, and whoever judges him wantonly, has nothing to do with him right now.

At the moment, he felt that what he did was quite right.

The author has something to say:

The part of the bridge that I thought was amazing has finally become a cliché

Give you everything like a terminal illness

The dark fragrance fills the air, written in detail for the feelings that are easy to be decadent

No matter how unbearable our rumors are in future generations
