Seeing Shangguan Jianjia's resigned look, Wu Yuan also became interested.
"Can you represent the will of Dayu Country? If not, no matter how much I say to you, it will be a waste of time." Wu Yuan asked tentatively.
"Of course it can." Shangguan Jianjia said with certainty.
After saying that, she looked up at Akano Hanako. It was obvious that she didn't want the Japanese woman to hear her next words.
Wu Yuan also understood what Shangguan Jianjia meant, so he planned to ask Akano Hanako to avoid it first.
But Akano Hanako was the first to say: "I am the prince's woman, and this will not change at all. Dongying will be Takemoto's most loyal friend, and this will not change either."
However, Shangguan Jianjia said disdainfully: "It's just a small country. If it weren't for the constant disputes among the mainland countries, you would have been destroyed countless times."
"What's more, you, Japan, are too involved with the Qianlu Merchant Guild, and you keep saying that you are the prince's woman, but in fact you are engaged to Wang Ye, aren't you?"
Shangguan Jianjia's IQ was naturally not just a boast. She was Dayu's most talented woman, and she pointedly pointed out Akano Hanako's biggest flaw.
Akano Hanako immediately wanted to explain, but Shangguan Jianjia didn't give her this chance at all, "No matter how much you say, it's useless. The facts are there. The most important thing is that the Crown Princess doesn't like you."
The sentence "The Crown Princess doesn't like you" immediately made Akano Hanako speechless.
Seeing these two beauties arguing, both Wu Yuan and Xin Ruyan found it quite interesting.
"Yan Fei, take Akano Hanako over there first!" Xin Ruyan ordered.
Yan Fei also immediately agreed, "Akano Hanako please."
Akano Hanako was very aggrieved. She didn't understand why she was treated differently.
It was obvious that Shangguan Jianjia and her had the same purpose, they both wanted to cooperate with Wu Yuan and even wanted to sacrifice their own bodies. Why could Shangguan Jianjia be accepted but not her?
It's a pity that if the princess doesn't like you, there's nothing she can do about it.
This made Akano Hanako couldn't help but cast a resentful look at Wu Yuan before reluctantly following Yan Fei and leaving.
"Okay, now you can say it." Wu Yuan looked at Shangguan Jianjia with a half-smile.
Shangguan Jianjia did not hide anything, and immediately talked about the current problems of Dayu Country.
"Unlike your Prince Dawu, Dayu Kingdom has many princes. There is only one prince in Dayu Kingdom, and he is still young. However, my father is already old, and many things are beyond his capabilities."
"Among the many princesses, I am the most outstanding one. No one can deny this. Therefore, in the future, the greatest possibility is that I, the princess, will assist my brother. So you should know that I can represent the will of Dayu Kingdom, right?"
After listening to Shangguan Jianjia's words, Wu Yuan turned to look at Xin Ruyan.
Xin Ruyan nodded, "She is right. Although Dayu Kingdom keeps these things secret, there is no airtight wall in the world. That prince is only eight years old this year."
Wu Yuan suddenly understood, and then joked: "Even your Emperor Dayu is no good. There must be many beauties in the harem, and there is only one prince."
"Please show some respect to my father. What I want to tell you is that my father is a dedicated person. Unlike some people who fall in love with everyone they meet, there are only the queen and two other concubines in the harem."
"Those two concubines had to be brought into the harem to stabilize the court. In fact, my father only loves the queen."
After saying that, Shangguan Jianjia hesitated for a moment, and then sighed, "Tianli Kingdom took the queen as a hostage, so my father was forced to follow Tianli Kingdom's arrangements."
"Of course, this is one of the reasons. The other reason is that in the face of Tianli Kingdom's ambition, Dayu Kingdom bears the brunt, and my father also has to consider Dayu's country."
This time Wu Yuan was really surprised by Shangguan Jianjia's words. He never expected that an emperor could be a dedicated person.
This made Wu Yuan a little admired, and he could understand Dayu Guo's helplessness.
But understanding is understanding, it is also true that Dayu Country has betrayed his trust.
"Has your queen been rescued? If not, your father will still not resist Tianli Kingdom, right?" Wu Yuan suddenly grasped the key point.
After Shangguan Jianjia told the truth, he knew that Wu Yuan would ask about this.
Shangguan Jianjia's eyes were firm, "My father is old and has long lost his ambitions and the domineering power of the leader of a country. But I can't watch Dayu step by step towards the abyss. If something is not done, not only Dayu's army will be
They will be used as cannon fodder and even ordinary people will not be spared from death in the future."
Xin Ruyan looked surprised, "You must have controlled your father, right?"
Shangguan Jianjia did not answer this directly, but said affirmatively: "In short, I have the final say now, Dayu!"
For a moment, even Wu Yuan was amazed by the domineering display of Shangguan Jianjia at this moment.
Xin Ruyan also has mixed emotions. If she were in Shangguan Jianjia's position, she might not have such determination and domineering power.
Wu Yuan, on the other hand, admired Shangguan Jianjia's style. It could be seen that Shangguan Jianjia was not that eager for power. Everything he did was for the Dayu Kingdom and the people of Li.
"Now you can talk about the compensation you want, but please understand that now our Dayu Kingdom has reached a critical point, and we will fight against the Tianli Kingdom together with you, so I hope the prince can show his noble hand."
This time Shangguan Jianjia lost the pride he had before, and there was even a hint of pleading in his tone.
Wu Yuan looked at Xin Ruyan, wanting to hear Xin Ruyan's opinion.
But Xin Ruyan is also a little hesitant. Dayu Kingdom must win over him, but as Shangguan Jianjia said, if the lion opens its mouth, it will not be able to win over the current Dayu Kingdom at all.
Wu Yuan also had the same idea, but forget it like this, how could he be worthy of the dead soldiers.
After all, Dayu Nation was the one who betrayed their trust first, and they must be held responsible for their mistakes.
After thinking about it, Wu Yuan finally made a decision, "I sympathize with you, but the compensation should be one hundred thousand taels of gold. In addition, the three border cities, including Boulder City, will forever belong to Da Wu and cannot be used in the future.
Invasion."
Fortunately for the latter part, the three border cities had already lost to Dawu the last time they were sent as envoys.
"We can't get out one hundred thousand taels of gold. The most is fifty thousand taels. This is the limit I can give." Shangguan Jianjia was also helpless, even a little ashamed. A great country could not get out one hundred thousand taels of gold.
But Wu Yuan was not prepared to give in. If Dayu was not hurt, how could he serve as a lesson?
But when Wu Yuan was about to deny Shangguan Jianjia's proposal, Xin Ruyan suddenly said, "Yes, but the fifty thousand taels must be repaid with other things."
