Travels to the Holy Light Continent

Chapter 106: Dead lips and cold teeth

"You look similar to Wushuang, so why don't you call me brother? It feels a bit weird to call me master!" I said.

"Okay, then you can call me Anna too! That's what my father calls me too!"

"Well! Anna, you can be Archimedes' apprentice, so you don't have to follow me everywhere in Plato!"

"Ok!"

At the same time, the war between Chu and Qi was imminent. The Ninth Princess launched an attack with lightning speed. Eisenburg was immediately engulfed in flames of war, and King Xuan of Qi immediately issued a letter of reconciliation and requested peaceful negotiations.

The Ninth Princess immediately took advantage of the situation and asked King Xuan of Qi to punish Lian Po on the pretext that Lian Po frightened her child during the battle of the Holy Capital. The foolish King Xuan of Qi actually believed it and immediately put Lian Po in prison. The ministers made direct remonstrations, but the timid King Xuan of Qi would not listen. The Ninth Princess pretended to be friendly with Qi while hurriedly gathering more troops.

A few days later, the Ninth Princess used the excuse that a centurion was missing to launch an attack. King Xuan of Qi was speechless, but the Ninth Princess would not listen to his explanation and directly launched a general attack.

In this way, Aisenburg, the last line of defense of Qi, was lost. After Aisenburg was lost, Qi sent envoys to Qin for help. The ninth princess also sent envoys, but she asked Qin to release Aetius.

His Majesty then learned that I had captured Aetius alive, and he immediately sent someone to recall me to the Qin Kingdom.

As soon as I got home, my grandfather smiled and said, "My dear grandson! You are so amazing. You actually captured the continent's number one general, Aetius, alive. Grandpa is so proud of you!"

"Um, grandpa, His Majesty suddenly called me back just for this?" I asked.

"Not only that, as you can see, Chu and Qi have already fought a great war. Qi has sent people to ask for help. The Ninth Princess has also sent people, but she has said that if Qin does not release Aetius, she will definitely attack Qin after she destroys Qi."

"Your Majesty agrees?"

"Of course not. Although His Majesty is conservative, he is not as foolish and incompetent as King Xuan of Qi. He rejected the Ninth Princess' proposal but at the same time he also refused to help Qi." Grandpa said.

"Then did His Majesty summon me to stop me from helping Qi?"

"Well, it should be!"

"Alas, you said he was different from King Xuan of Qi, but I think they are similar! I will go talk to His Majesty!"

"Okay! I'll go with you!"

So my grandfather and I went to the palace together.

"Your Majesty, I, Xuanyuan Qingyun, pay my respects to you!"

"Third brother, it's you! Get up! I heard that you captured Aetius alive. Is that true?"

"Your Majesty! It is true! I have something to report!"

"you say!"

"I hope Your Majesty will order support for Qi!"

"What does the war between Chu and Qi have to do with me? Why should I go and help?"

"Your Majesty, do you know that if one loses the other, the other's teeth will be in danger? Our Qin State is close to Chu and Qi. Although our great Qin State is powerful, Your Majesty has ever thought that if Qi is destroyed, Chu will become even more powerful. Your Majesty, do you think that the Ninth Princess will have the courage to covet it in the future?" I said loudly.

"But I always feel..."

"Your Majesty, if you send troops now, you can not only demand Qi to cede land, but if you can defeat Chu, you can even annex Chu. Why not do this? Doesn't Your Majesty want our Great Qin to become an empire and become the greatest emperor in the history of the world?"

Your Majesty is a man who will not do anything without profit, so I can only use this opportunity to seduce him.

"The greatest emperor of all time! The greatest emperor of all time!"

Other court officials also echoed this at this time.

"Okay! Murakami Dalang, Xuanyuan Qingyun listen to your orders!"

"Chen is here!"

"I order you two to lead the Black Tortoise Army, the Azure Dragon Cavalry, the Suzaku Army, and the Savage Army to attack Qi State and help it solve its urgent problem!"

"Yes!"
