Seeing Princess Jung Yeon's sneer, Priest Yan Ping asked, "Your Royal Highness, what's so funny about this?"
Princess Jung Yeon said word by word, "You didn't spend ten million gold coins to buy Søren's life. You spent ten million gold coins to buy the entire Raging Wave Kingdom."
Hearing this, Yan Ping couldn't help but be stunned.
Generally speaking, women were more short-sighted and not so wise in politics.
But he didn't expect Princess Jung Yeon to be an exception. Her words hit the most critical point.
Princess Jung Yeon said coldly, "What's even more shameless is that the so-called ten million gold coins you need to pay is really negligible. Most of it is a trick from your left hand to your right hand. And what's even more shameless is that most of the money in it belongs to our Raging Wave Kingdom. It's just that you've taken it away. "
Yan Ping's pupils constricted. His originally meticulous sitting posture immediately relaxed, and he even became lazy and rude.
"Princess Jung Yeon, you're right. This ten million gold coins is just a numbers game for Hidden Island." Yan Ping said, "And I admit that not only the eight million gold coins that the Raging Wave Kingdom lost, but also the original seven million gold coins in the national treasury were illegally swallowed. That is to say, Hidden Island did use the Raging Wave Kingdom's money to threaten you! "
Taking a deep breath, Priest Yan Ping spread his hands and said, "But, so what? Do you want to reason with me? Who asked Zhi Li to be too incompetent? Who asked these bigwigs of the Raging Wave Kingdom to be too greedy? Who asked your father to be so opposed to the bigwigs of the kingdom? "
These words had indeed completely shed all pretense of cordiality.
Yan Ping continued, "Don't worry about where the Hidden Island got the money to save the Raging Wave Kingdom. Is it the so-called numbers game? I can only ask you one thing. Can this ten million gold coins number game that the Hidden Island talked about save the Raging Wave Kingdom? "
Jung Yeon nodded and said, "He can be saved."
Yan Ping said, "Then isn't it settled? Since it could save the Raging Wave Kingdom, who cared if its 10 million gold coins were real or a game of numbers? As long as you pay attention to one thing, can the Raging Wave Kingdom be saved? Can you continue to sit on the throne? If it is certain, why are you not a little more confused? There's a saying that's right, it's rare to be muddle-headed! "
Jung Yeon sneered and said, "Fine, as you said, I killed my husband Søren and saved the Raging Wave Kingdom. But this kingdom, is it still my kingdom? Today, I compromised with the Hidden Island by one foot. Tomorrow, will I have to compromise ten feet? "
Yan Ping said, "Let's talk about tomorrow's matters tomorrow. As for tomorrow's matters, you can still work hard to resist."
Jung Yeon said, "Don't joke around. My husband, Søren, is my biggest support at the moment. If I kill him today, I will have compromised to the extreme. Moreover, after the Hidden Island controls the kingdom's economic lifeline, he can threaten me to kill my husband today. Tomorrow, he can threaten me with other things. His control over the Raging Wave Kingdom will be even more serious. It's like putting a noose around my neck. Even if I compromise today and sit on the throne, it's just a puppet position. "
Yan Ping really didn't expect that Princess Jung Yeon would be so difficult to deal with.
In the past three years, her performance in politics was completely mediocre. From taking down Tianshui City to defeating Zhi Li, it was all thanks to Søren.
Princess Jung Yeon seemed to be just an ornament of Søren's identity, which made everything Søren did justifiable.
It gave people the feeling that Princess Jung Yeon was Søren's vase, an extremely beautiful vase with extremely high martial arts skills.
Moreover, after defeating Zhi Li and seizing the kingdom's power, Princess Jung Yeon didn't have any intention of interfering in politics. She handed over all the power to her husband, didn't publicly express any views, and didn't make any decisions.
Of course, the relationship between husband and wife couldn't be described as a puppet, but Jung Yeon really looked like a puppet queen.
She was a good-looking, sexy, and useful Puppet Queen.
Therefore, the Dragon Temple had always put the breakthrough point on her, hoping that her incompetence could make her Søren's pig teammate.
However, they didn't expect that under such a beautiful appearance, there was such a wise and farsighted vision.
For many things, she would be able to see through the purpose behind it, as well as the deeper philosophies behind it, even if you just started the beginning.
She was able to see through the deepest parts of his words.
This was the most precious aptitude of a king.
On the contrary, Søren's methods and determination were unparalleled, and his vision was absolutely sharp and deep.
However, he wasn't so wise, and he was too emotional.
Therefore, Søren could be a good executor and a good regent, but he might not be the best king.
He was somewhat similar to King Bi Bian, very temperamental and not rational enough.
If King Bi Bian was rational enough, he should have slightly compromised with the nobles after ascending to the throne, so that he wouldn't fall into a situation where he was completely without a son.
Bi Bian was the same as Søren. I know what I should do, but I don't feel good about it, so I just don't do it.
Especially when it came to putting Søren in an important position, King Bi Bian could no longer be described as irrational and temperamental.
At that time, Søren had only received the Noble Warrior Medal, and hadn't even recaptured Sky Water City, yet King Bi Bian dared to pin all his hopes on him, staked all his resources, and married Princess Jung Yeon to him.
This kind of desperate gamble, the degree of madness was completely comparable to Zhi Li's assassination of the king at the last moment to forcibly ascend the throne.
Was King Bi Bian so confident in Søren at that time? Not necessarily, it was more of a love me, love my dog, and a kind of heroism.
"Not a puppet!" Priest Yanping said, "But from now on, it is true that the Raging Wave Kingdom is under the control of the Hidden Island. Well, let's take a step back and say that after you compromised this time, you only got 60% of the Raging Wave Kingdom, and the remaining 40% was stolen by the Hidden Island. But you still have 60%, don't you? And if you follow Søren and go crazy, then the whole Raging Wave Kingdom will be destroyed, and you will only get zero. "
"No!" Princess Jung Yeon said quietly, "Priest Yanping, if we take the most extreme approach and confiscate all the properties of the nobles in the entire Royal City and use their gold coins to tide over this crisis, what do you think the worst result is?"
Yanping said, "The whole kingdom will be in chaos, warlords will be divided, and you and Søren will become the public enemy of the world."
Princess Jung Yeon said, "Yes, this is the worst result. But … so what? "
Yanping was stunned, "Your kingdom has collapsed, what else do you want?"
Princess Jung Yeon shook her head and said, "As you said, the kingdom is in chaos and warlords are divided. I followed my husband back to Sky Water City and ascended the throne there. Then, among the warlords, are we the strongest? "
Yanping was stunned. If it really came to that, the husband and wife, Søren and Jung Yeon, would definitely be the strongest.
With gunpowder and the strongest army, they would no longer be a burden to the kingdom's economy, and they could rely on sea trade to generate endless military expenses.
Moreover, the elites of the Southwest Legion, Dragon Guard Legion, and Northern Legion were all in Sky Water City.
With Søren's money, he could easily organize an army of 500,000 soldiers.
Then, he would use the most primitive method to conquer the provinces one by one, and finally recapture the whole Raging Wave Kingdom.
Among the warlords of the world, who else could be a match for Søren?
Yanping said, "When that time comes, will the Raging Wave Kingdom still be the Si Family's kingdom?"
"Of course!" Princess Jung Yeon said, "Do you think my husband, Søren, will betray me and usurp the throne?"
Yanping was stunned. He really wouldn't.
Because Søren's direct subordinates would all become the new top nobles of the kingdom, and they wouldn't lack room for advancement. They wouldn't force Søren to usurp the throne.
And Søren was such a temperamental person. Would he kill his own wife and usurp the throne?
He must be out of his mind to do so. Why would he usurp the throne? He was the supreme ruler of the kingdom, and he had a supreme status.
Moreover, the one who would inherit the throne in the future would be his son.
From a man's evil point of view, would a man feel good f * cking the queen every day? Or would it feel good f * cking the queen every day?
Of course it was the latter!
Therefore, as long as Jung Yeon didn't seize power, Søren would never betray her.
Princess Jung Yeon said, "Therefore, if I don't compromise, even if the worst situation happens, I still have a 70% chance of regaining control of the whole Raging Wave Kingdom, but it will only be delayed for four to five years. And if I compromise, I will gradually become a puppet queen. Comparing the two, as long as my mind is clear enough, I should know what choice to make. "
Yan Ping was suddenly speechless. After a long time, he said, "Then aren't you worried that you will completely offend the Dragon Temple?"
Princess Jung Yeon's eyes revealed a sarcastic light. Yan Ping's question was really muddle-headed.
"When I have the whole Raging Wave Kingdom, I will have the right to worry about whether I will offend the Dragon Temple. And when you want to take away all my things, won't this kind of willingness be superfluous? "Jung Yeon said indifferently.
It was indeed so. For example, a civil servant, and one who was in a rising period, of course, would care about the leader's opinion of him and do everything possible to flatter him.
However, one day he committed murder and was about to be sentenced to life imprisonment. Who would still care about the leader's opinion of him? It would already be considered good if he didn't take the opportunity to molest the leader's mistress.
Yan Ping was speechless again.
Jung Yeon said, "My grandfather, in order to prevent the infiltration of the Hidden Island, did not hesitate to kill his three sons. My father, in order to prevent the infiltration of the Hidden Island, did not hesitate to be a figurehead by the entire kingdom's nobility. He did not hesitate to force a woman to ascend the throne as a king, did not hesitate to let an outsider man take over the kingdom's power. And I, in order to preserve the independence and integrity of the Raging Wave Kingdom, how can I not even have the courage to be reborn? "
Yan Ping continued to be speechless.
Jung Yeon said, "Even in the most extreme words, there is a family heirloom that is incomparably precious. But one day, the master can't protect it. He would rather smash it himself than be snatched by the enemy. This is what most people think, and I am also one of this majority! "
When the Ming Dynasty fell, before Emperor Chong Zhen committed suicide, in order to not let his wife and daughter be humiliated, he killed them first. It was the same reason.
Priest Yan Ping looked at Princess Jung Yeon and sighed, "Your Royal Highness, you are more suitable to be a king than your father. It's such a pity to be controlled by Søren like this! "
Princess Jung Yeon shook her head and said, "Actually, when I am alone with Søren, most of the time, I am the one controlling him. Every time, he would throw away his helmet and armor and beg for mercy."
When these words came out, Yan Ping could not believe his ears at all.
Princess Jung Yeon was talking dirty?! Talking dirty!
This otherworldly and otherworldly princess in front of him, the former Saintess of the Dragon Temple, the future Queen, was actually talking dirty, and in a serious manner.
Instantly, Yan Ping was filled with endless jealousy!
How could Søren have such a woman?
Among the women in the world, no one could be compared to this woman in front of him in wisdom, martial arts, beauty, and nobility!
Ji Soo-ning's beauty and status were not inferior to Jung Yeon's, but she was too inhuman, like a Bodhisattva in a temple.
"Priest Yan Ping, please leave. Don't come to see me again." Princess Jung Yeon said lightly, "Although my husband will not mind, as a wife, it is not good to meet other men in private."
Yan Ping's face suddenly became a little embarrassed. He stood up and bowed, "Goodbye!"
Then, he staggered out of the room.
His embarrassment did not come from the failure of the negotiation, because it had nothing to do with him, and it would not affect his future.
It was because he thought highly of himself, and felt that his talent was unparalleled. At this moment, whether it was his vision or wisdom, being crushed by a woman was a huge blow to his heart, and this was the source of his embarrassment.
When Yan Ping walked out of the door, suddenly, Jung Yeon shouted, "Wait, please stop!"
Yan Ping stopped and said, "Your Royal Highness, do you have any other advice?"
Of course, he no longer hoped that Jung Yeon would change her mind. Facing such a truly intelligent person, any words were useless.
Princess Jung Yeon walked out, took out a small box, and handed it to Yan Ping, saying, "This is a gift from my husband and I to Fang Qingyi, the young master of the Hidden Island."
Priest Yan Ping smelled blood, and even through the box, he could smell it clearly. He could not help but ask, "What is this?"
"The human skin of Fang Zeming, the head shopkeeper of King City's Gold Business, the Hidden Yuan Guild's elder." Princess Jung Yeon said, "Of course, I admit that my husband peeled off his human skin, which is very irrational, but I feel that this is a very good display of our will, the will to rather die in glory than to live in disgrace!"
Yan Ping's body trembled, and he almost wanted to throw away the box in his hands, but then he held it firmly, and then bowed deeply again, saying, "Goodbye."
Then, he carried the box with the human skin and left in a hurry.
…
After an unknown period of time!
The frost shrouding Ashita Liren's body gradually faded, and her snow-white face showed a little bit of redness.
Then, she opened her beautiful eyes, and gradually woke up.
Søren, on the other hand, fell into a complete coma. Eros continued to devour the cold energy in Ashita Liren's body.
At this time, Ashita Liren finally understood how Søren saved her. She could clearly feel a very mysterious body of energy continuously devouring the cold energy in her body, allowing her to regain her vitality.
And this mysterious body of energy was in Søren's body!
Standing at Ashita Liren's level, of course, she immediately associated a lot of things, and then she discovered a terrifying truth, a shocking secret!
Regarding Eros, regarding the World Destroyer Demon Emperor, she knew much more than others!
Regarding the cold energy in her body, Ashita Liren was very clear that it was enough to kill Søren ten times, a hundred times over.
However, Søren's life was not in danger. His body seemed to have a bottomless pit that could devour an uncountable amount of energy.
Then the result was very easy to guess. Perhaps the World Destroyer Demon Emperor that her younger brother Aslo sacrificed, or perhaps the World Destroyer Demon Emperor that the entire Dragon Temple was trying to capture, was right in front of her?
It was this extremely beautiful, extremely intelligent, and extremely charming man!
This result made Ashita Liren tremble.
Her entire soul and body were trembling! Her entire soul was falling into his hands!
Ashita Liren held Søren's face with her lily-white hands, and muttered to herself, "Søren, are you that World Destroyer Demon Emperor?"
