Villainess Wants To Turn Over A New Leaf-Chapter 414

Upon hearing this, the Prince of Yong Kingdom thought there was something that he could assure as he replied, “Your Majesty, I have an Imperial Sister who is the pearl of our Yong Kingdom’s prairie. We are willing to grant this pearl to Your Majesty and bless that your marriage lasts forever.”

Song Jinglan raised his eyebrows before he threw the letter on the desk and leaned back, “It’s a pity.”

The Prince of the Yong Kingdom was a little nervous, “What is so pitiful about this?”

Song Jinglan said, “It’s a pity that I’m not that interested in women, and I don’t have the blessings to enjoy the beauty of pearls.”

The Prince of the Yong Kingdom was stunned for a while, but the cogs in his brains turned quickly as he immediately added, “It is also possible for Your Majesty to grant one of our grassland Princes an Imperial Sister of yours. Our two countries could form an alliance since tokens of sincerity have already been achieved. If Your Majesty is willing to join hands with us to attack the Great Lin Empire, wouldn’t it be beautiful to divide the city and rule it together in the future?”

Since he was the representative of the envoy, he naturally prepared a lot of rhetorical reasoning. Emperor Song’s attitude seemed to be quite friendly, so the more Prince Yong talked, the more he felt like the alliance was going to succeed.

After talking endlessly for half an hour, he asked expectantly, “What do you think, Your Majesty?”

Song Jinglan propped his head with his hand, closed his eyes slightly, and said in a light manner, “I will think about it.”

The Prince of the Yong Kingdom suddenly became a bit anxious, “Your Majesty, do not shy away when opportunity knocks on your door. The Emperor of the Great Lin Empire is suffering from the Cold Poison from the elixir pills and will not live for long. Wasn’t there a saying in your Central Plains that went something like, ‘take their lives while they are sick’? If not now, when are you going to take advantage of the situation and launch an attack?”

Song Jinglan glanced over at this point and asked with a smile, “The elixir pills inflicted the Cold Poison? How did you know about that?”

The Prince of the Yong Kingdom showed off his pride, “The Taoist priest who made the pills is on my side; how could I not have known about it? Your Majesty, we have arranged this plan for a long time and the way ahead is already paved. Now, we invite Your Majesty to enjoy the fruits of labour with us. This is the true offer of our sincerity.”

Song Jinglan raised his eyebrows and picked up the letter. He read it again and finally said in a low voice, “It’s about the fate of the country, so do excuse me if I take some time to discuss this with my courtiers before giving the Third Prince an answer.”

The Prince of the Yong Kingdom felt that the matter was probably concluded, so he nodded happily, “Okay, I’ll wait for Your Majesty’s good news!”

When he left, Song Jinglan leaned back in the chair. Seeing him close his eyes, the hall became more silent, for fear that everyone else’s breathing would be too loud and in turn, disturb His Majesty. 𝙛𝑟𝘦ℯ𝘄e𝙗nov𝙚𝑙.𝐜𝑜𝗺

After a pretty long while, Song Jinglan suddenly asked, “How is the situation in the Great Lin Empire?”

Tiandong said, “Emperor Lin is seriously ill and the Crown Prince is now in charge of the country. The envoys of the Great Lin Empire have already crossed the River Huai and have just entered the country.”

Song Jinglan opened his eyes, lowered his head and straightened his dark red cuffs, “Summon uncle and the Mighty General to enter the palace.”

Tiandong immediately relayed the decree and after delivering the order, he swallowed a mouthful of spit again and said, “Your Majesty, are you going to go right now?”
