Translator: 549690339
As the newly-ascended Empress, Ling Chuxi was currently in the Imperial court discussing the peace negotiations between the northern kingdom and the civil and military officials. The two countries had just fought a war a year ago. After the war, their National Strength was greatly damaged. Now, the northern country was pressing forward step by step, while the southern country had repeatedly given in. This time, the northern country requested the southern country to cede a city, and also asked the Empress ‘only sister, Princess Xuanji, to go to the northern country for a marriage alliance.
“Your Majesty, the princess’s sacrifice can be exchanged for ten years of peace in the northern kingdom. Her Highness will definitely understand the greater good …”
“Emperor, for the people to live and work in peace …”
Ling Chuxi’s face grew darker and darker. Looking at the group of ministers below who were chattering away, a burst of anger rose in her heart for no reason. Endure? To hand over the people he cared about in exchange for his own peace? She, Ling Chuxi, did not have such thoughts in her world!
“Shut up! All of you shut up!” Ling Chuxi stood up and angrily rebuked,”ten years of peace? hehe, what about ten years later? A group of people who were afraid of death was also worthy of standing in this imperial court? Three days later, I … Will personally lead the Army and declare war on the northern kingdom!” Did something seem wrong? That strange feeling flashed by, and he couldn’t capture it.
“Your Majesty, you can’t …” An old Minister immediately knelt down with tears and snot flying all over his face. He wailed,”Your Majesty, you can’t do things your own way. That will lead to misery and suffering. Her Highness doesn’t want to see that either …
Ling Chuxi laughed coldly. She suddenly pulled out her sword and slashed at the old official. The sword Qi broke through the sky and made a sharp sound. The next moment, one of the old official’s ears fell to the ground. The official cried out in pain as he covered his ear. His hand was covered in blood.
The entire imperial court was as quiet as cicadas in winter.
“It’s good that you want a marriage alliance. Your only granddaughter is so beautiful and gentle. I will take her as my adopted sister and give her the title of Princess Dayi. I will send someone to the northern kingdom tomorrow to seek a marriage alliance.” Said Ling Chuxi coldly as she kept her sword.
“Emperor! Don ‘t! The king of the northern country is cruel and inhumane. My granddaughter is only 16 years old. She’ll lose her life if she’s cut off!” The old official covered his ears and shouted in panic.
“It’s fine if you’re civil officials, but how can you military generals have any vigor? He survived without any backbone! What’s the point of living on your knees?” Ling Chuxi looked at all the generals in the court and rebuked them ruthlessly,”three days later, Emperor Xi will personally lead the troops. If you are afraid of the dead, get lost immediately! So what if he was from the northern kingdom? The southern kingdom has been standing strong for hundreds of years. It was because he was full of hot blood and because he was unyielding! What was the last instruction of the ancestors? He would rather die standing than live on his knees! Look at you guys, the way you’re living now, don’t you feel indignant?
“Hahahaha …” Ling Chuxi threw her head back and laughed. Her laughter was filled with disdain and sarcasm.”Listen, you know that the ruler of the northern country is cruel and inhumane, but he still advocates a marriage alliance. He wants my sister to die in vain. When it’s your granddaughter’s turn, you have this kind of face. Aren’t you the most righteous person? I think your granddaughter is willing to be bestowed the title of Princess Dayi in exchange for ten years of peace in the southern kingdom. ‘
The old official was dumbstruck. He seemed to have forgotten the pain and sat on the ground in a daze.

Look at you guys, the way you’re living now, don’t you feel indignant? Wouldn’t he feel aggrieved? Although the southern kingdom has suffered some losses, the northern kingdom is the same! Why do we have to give in? Those who opposed it should immediately resign and return to their villages to raise pigs.. I don’t need a dog official who can’t protect the people, and the people of the world don’t need him! Withdraw the court! “
