Chapter 518 Proposal to Linglong

At this time, Prince Wencheng's face turned pale and blue, his thoughts were confused, his mind was blank, and he fell into great hesitation.

It was impossible for him to obey Li Tianhan's words and cede one-third of the territory out of thin air.

Even if Prince Wencheng was bold, he would not dare to do such a thing!

Without any signs, he ceded so much territory. Even if Prince Wencheng ascended the throne in the future, he would probably be kicked down in the blink of an eye.

Because such behavior is comparable to selling out the country!

No one will accept an emperor who sells out the country. At least, Prince Wencheng does not have the confidence and means to suppress others.

But if he is not threatened by Li Tianhan, Li Tianhan will shake out the poisoning and even threaten to save the old emperor...

When Prince Wencheng thought of his father's strength and means, he was trembling with fear.

Things have come to this point. The old emperor must not be allowed to come back to life. Once he comes back to life, what awaits him is a catastrophe.

It's better to die than to live!

Seeing that Prince Wencheng was in great entanglement, Li Tianhan was not in a hurry. He chuckled and said, "This prince came here for another mission."

"What mission?" Prince Wencheng looked angry, "You won't ask me to cede something again?!"

"That's not the case," Li Tianhan said with a smile, "Speaking of which, this is still a happy event."

"This prince, on behalf of Fengling Empire, intends to propose to Princess Linglong of your Ziyue Empire. Once the proposal is successful, our two families will be friends."

"Propose to Linglong?"

Hearing this, Prince Wencheng was stunned at first, and then overjoyed!

He was unhappy with Linglong!

Although Princess Linglong was a woman, she had extraordinary means and had many forces in the court. Even Prince Wencheng, as the crown prince, was very afraid of her.

In terms of power, means, governance level, and even martial arts realm, he, Wencheng, was not as good as Linglong!

If Linglong was not a woman, it would not be Wencheng's turn to take the position of crown prince.

In recent years, there have even been rumors in the court that the throne of the emperor does not necessarily have to be held by a man. If a woman is wise and brave, she can still lead the empire to a more prosperous path.

This has brought great pressure to Prince Wencheng!

And now, the solution to Linglong is right in front of us!

Once Princess Linglong marries to the Fengling Empire, even if she has great means, she will not be able to influence the Ziyue Empire.

A woman who marries far away is like spilled water, and her identity has also changed greatly. It is impossible for her to point fingers at her motherland!

Thinking of this, Prince Wencheng suddenly became excited, and his face was much more relaxed than before.

"I thought it was something else, but it turned out to be a proposal to Linglong!" Prince Wencheng said with a smile, "This prince, on behalf of my father and the Purple Moon Empire, can agree to this marriage now!"

"If you marry Linglong, then our two families will be relatives."

"I marry Linglong?" Hearing this, Li Tianhan's face became strange, and then he shook his head and said, "It's not me who marries Linglong."

"It's my father."

Huh? ! !

Hearing this, Prince Wencheng was shocked!

The person who proposed to Linglong was not Li Tianhan?

But Li Tianhan's father?

This news shocked Prince Wencheng greatly. He didn't expect that the old emperor of Fengling Empire would still have the behavior of an old cow eating young grass.

But thinking about it carefully, it doesn't matter.

As long as Linglong can be sent away, it doesn't matter who she marries, even if she marries a beggar!

"What? Your Highness Wencheng is surprised? Could it be that this marriage can't be accomplished?" Li Tianhan asked with a squint.

"No, no, no, there won't be any accidents. I still agree to this marriage," Prince Wencheng grinned and said, "but I didn't expect Linglong to become your stepmother."

When the word stepmother came out, even Li Tianhan fell silent, not knowing what to say.

In fact, he had long coveted Linglong and wanted to hold her in his arms and knead her, but there was no way, his father fell in love with Linglong, and Li Tianhan could do nothing about it.

"The proposal to Linglong has been finalized. Now let's talk about the cession of the northern border." Seeing that the atmosphere on the scene was a bit strange, Dan Chengzi of Danding Sect broke the silence and said as a reminder, "Your Highness Wencheng, what do you think now?" Prince Wencheng remained silent. After a moment, he slowly said, "The cession of border territory is ultimately a matter between our two empires. What does it have to do with your Danding Sect?" "That's a good question!" Upon hearing this, Dan Chengzi was stunned at first, and then laughed, "The reason why I am so active is because Prince Li Tianhan promised us and gave us a large piece of land!" "How about my answer?" After the voice fell, Prince Wencheng's face changed. No wonder Danding Sect intervened so actively, it turned out that they also had their eyes on the territory of the northern border! Danding Sect's power is not small, and it even surpasses the Ziyue Empire. Now Danding Sect and Fengling Empire have joined forces, and Wencheng really has no way. Even if it has not reached the point of being slaughtered, the situation is not much better! Seeing that Wencheng was still silent, Dan Chengzi rolled his eyes and said in a gentle and persuasive manner, "If Prince Wencheng agrees to our conditions, my Danding Sect and Fengling Empire promise to fully support you in ascending the throne."

"We can guarantee this!"

"If anyone in the Purple Moon Empire dares to oppose you, our two major forces will directly send a large army to help you stabilize the court!"

"Senior Dan Chengzi is right," Li Tianhan on the side also fanned the flames, "Your Highness Wencheng, think about it carefully. On the one hand, your father will be saved, but you will live a life worse than death."

"On the other hand, you have made friends with our two major forces at the cost of ceding land, so that you can sit firmly on the throne and ascend to the throne of the emperor."

"One of these two endings is as dark as the abyss, and the other is bright and brilliant. I think you should know very well which one to choose!"

After saying that, Li Tianhan and Dan Chengzi stared at Prince Wencheng.

The scene was so quiet that you could hear a pin drop.

After a full quarter of an hour, Prince Wencheng seemed to have made some kind of decision, and said with a sinister look, "I can cooperate with you!"

"But, I can only cede the territory of the ten northern states!"

"When the time comes, you will directly send people to attack, and I will directly abandon the tens of thousands of soldiers and civilians in the ten northern states. In this way, I will only lose the battle, not surrender and cede the land."

"This is the biggest concession I can make! If you still don't agree, then it's a fight to the death, and no one will get it!"

After that, Prince Wencheng glared at Li Tianhan and Dan Chengzi fiercely, as if he would turn against each other if he disagreed.

"Only cede the territory of the ten northern states? This is a bit difficult for me."

Li Tianhan winked at Dan Chengzi, and then the two said in unison, "We need to discuss this major matter carefully, and we will give you an answer after a few days."

"Your Highness Wencheng, we'll take our leave first!"

After that, Li Tianhan and Dan Chengzi left side by side, and only Prince Wencheng was left in the huge living room.

Wencheng sat limply on the chair, his face gloomy, his eyes violent, and no one knew what he was thinking.

Not long after.

A servant hurriedly reported, "Your Highness, Princess Linglong has returned to the palace!"

"What?!" Wencheng jumped in shock and almost fell off the chair.

"Why is Linglong back at this time! Send someone to block the palace and strictly forbid Linglong to enter the palace! If Linglong is allowed to step into the palace, all of you will die! All of you will die!"

The roar of Prince Wencheng came out from the living room furiously.
