Meng Haoran was wearing a red battle armor, his eyes were as sharp as falcons, and his body exuded a majestic aura, making it impossible to tell whether he was injured or not.
Meng Haoran chuckled lightly, glanced at the people in Qinglong Palace, and then cast his gaze on Han Jiulin's body, saying:
"His Majesty's imperial edict also mentioned that I should come to inquire about the casualties in Qinglong Palace, and then ask the young prince if he needs any funds from the empire to help rebuild Qinglong Palace."
Han Jiulin nodded slightly and said, "Thank you so much for Your Majesty's concern for Prince Qinglong's Mansion. Everyone at Prince Qinglong's Mansion must be deeply grateful for Your Majesty's kindness.
In today's battle, our Qinglong Palace suffered heavy damage indeed, and we urgently need help from the imperial court."
"Later, I will ask my subordinates to make a statistics of the losses inside and outside the palace and hand them over to the Marquis. I hope that your majesty's pension can be allocated already."
After hearing Han Jiulin's words, the imperial sergeants led by Feihong Hou Meng Haoran all looked at each other, and felt in their hearts that the young prince of Qinglong Palace really followed the rules and had an extraordinary face.
The perfunctory intentions of Emperor Canglan and Marquis Feihong were so obvious that he actually had the nerve to ask for disaster funds from the empire, which is really surprising.
Meng Haoran's original words of "disaster funds" were actually just to take the opportunity to disgust the Qinglong Palace. If the rest of the Qinglong Palace faced Meng Haoran, they would definitely refuse the imperial funding out of resentment.
Just because Emperor Canglan's showmanship was already obvious at this time, why should Qinglong Palace continue to suffer such humiliation?
However, the person Meng Haoran was facing at this time was Han Jiulin, who had always played his cards out of the box. Not only did he ask for disaster funds, but he also asked for a list of the losses incurred by the Qinglong Palace after the battle. He was simply treating Emperor Canglan as the enemy.
Not long after, Han Jiulin handed a list to Meng Haoran. After Meng Haoran glanced at the numbers above, his eyelids moved slightly, and he secretly thought that Han Jiulin really planned to kill the imperial court, but he was so rude.
Meng Haoran forced a smile towards Han Jiulin and said: "I will definitely deliver this list of losses to the Qinglong Palace to His Majesty. As for how long it will take..."
Before Meng Haoran could open his mouth to adopt delaying tactics, Han Jiulin had already guessed what he was thinking, and quickly interrupted:
"Your Majesty is the emperor of our Canglan Empire. The emperor's words are as heavy as the weight of the Nine Cauldrons, and he will never break the trust of the world. In order to comfort the family members of our Qinglong Palace who were killed and injured as soon as possible, I believe that this disaster fund will be allocated within three days.
Arrive at the palace of King Qinglong.
I wonder if the Marquis thinks so?"
Meng Haoran put the list into the storage ring with a gloomy expression, and then said: "Your Majesty has said what he said, and naturally he will never break his promise.
It’s just that Your Majesty specially asked me to come to express my condolences to the old prince. I wonder if I can come in and see you?”
The real purpose of Meng Haoran's trip to lead his army to King Qinglong's Mansion was to find out the extent of the casualties in King Qinglong's Mansion, and what the current situation of King Qinglong Han Chutai was.
If Meng Haoran observes that the Qinglong Palace has been severely weakened, he will immediately take out the imperial edict of Emperor Canglan and declare that the Qinglong Palace is suspected of treason, and then lead his army to destroy the Qinglong Palace in one fell swoop.
Meng Haoran kept staring at Han Jiulin's eyes as he spoke, trying to find out from his eyes how Qinglong King Han Chutai was doing now.
If King Qinglong really died at the hands of the two altar masters of the Bloodthirsty Demon Sect, then Meng Haoran would have no worries at all and would immediately lead his army into King Qinglong's palace with a wave of his hand.
However, before Han Jiulin could speak, there was suddenly another sound of iron hoofs on the street, and then he heard a shout from far to near:
"Huangfu Hong of the Tianxuan Palace has led the palace's army to help the Qinglong Palace to exterminate the remnants of the Demon Sect!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Huangfu Hong led an army from the Tianxuan Palace to the outside of the Qinglong Palace.
Just when Meng Haoran was staring at Huangfu Hong and was about to speak, suddenly another light voice came from the other end of the street:
"Huangfu Zhirou of the Giant Spirit Palace leads the palace's army to help Qinglong Palace retreat from the enemy!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Huangfu Zhirou also led the army from the Juling Palace to this place and surrounded the other end of the army led by Feihong Hou.
At this time, the two royal palaces sent troops to Qinglong Palace, and their intention to help was obvious. Meng Haoran knew that under such circumstances, it was impossible to destroy Qinglong Palace, and a bad move might lead to a huge dispute.
.
Obviously, neither he nor Emperor Canglan would like to see such consequences.
Seeing this situation, Han Jiulin smiled slightly and then said: "The old prince fought hard against two bloodthirsty demon sects today. Now he is mentally exhausted. I apologize that I cannot meet Feihong Hou. I also ask Feihong Hou to convey to your majesty,
The old prince’s concern for Your Majesty today will definitely be borne in mind.”
Meng Haoran looked at Han Jiulin with a deep gaze, and then said: "In this case, I will not force it. I hope that the old prince will be in good health and live a long life.
retreat!"
After Feihong Hou gave an order, the imperial troops retreated one after another like a wave and left the Qinglong Palace.
After Han Jiulin saw Meng Haoran leaving, he immediately invited Huangfu Zhirou and Huangfu Hong to the Qinglong Palace, and then ordered the maid to serve the most expensive fragrant tea in the Qinglong Palace.
Huangfu Zhirou looked apologetic when facing Han Jiulin. She bit her lips for a long time before speaking:
"Jiulin, because the situation in the imperial capital is really changing now, my father gave me a strict order not to assist Qinglong Palace. It was only after the demon sect's people were defeated that I got permission from my father to come and lead troops to support."
Han Jiulin waved his hand slightly towards Huangfu Zhirou, and then said: "Zhirou, you don't have to be like this. The situation outside Qinglong Palace just now was dangerous. If you and Brother Huangfu hadn't arrived in time, I'm afraid Meng Haoran would have led his army into our Qinglong Palace."
It’s inside the Dragon King’s Mansion.”
Huangfu Hong wondered: "This Meng Haoran is so bold and openly leads his army into the residence of a hereditary prince. This is a heinous crime. Does he, Meng Haoran, want to be implicated in the nine clans?"
Han Jiulin looked at Huangfu Hong and smiled bitterly, and then said: "This Feihonghou is our Majesty's confidant, how could he do something that goes against His Majesty's wishes?"
"His Majesty wants to eradicate my Qinglong Palace and it is not just a matter of time. If my Qinglong Palace is really seriously damaged today, I think this Emperor Canglan will definitely not miss the best opportunity to uproot my Qinglong Palace."
"Do you believe that Meng Haoran already has an imperial edict in his arms, and the content written in it is to put the crime of rebellion on my head, Qinglong Palace. In this way, even if Meng Haoran leads the army to attack Qinglong Palace, it will be
If you kill a thief under orders, you will never be half guilty."
