Chapter 309 Emperor Xuanwu is a big swindler
Emperor Xuanwu's heart trembled, and he couldn't help but hug Luo'er tighter in his arms.
It is incredible that this extremely arrogant king of Xiyue Kingdom could be made to kneel down!
You know, before Dongsheng Kingdom rose to prominence, it was bullied terribly by the other side!
Whenever foreign envoys came to Dongsheng Kingdom, they would find fault with Dongsheng Kingdom in various ways.
Find problems in every aspect of food, clothing, housing and transportation, and then take away a lot of good things when you go back.
But Emperor Xuanwu was also helpless at that time. Disasters continued to occur in Dongsheng country, and people's lives were in trouble. How could they have the energy to fight?
Therefore, he could only choose to be patient!
Thinking about it now, he doesn't know how he managed to get through it.
Although he resolved these problems time and time again with his intelligence.
But after all, our own strength is limited, so what can we do?
It was hard to imagine that this person who was once so arrogant, even more domineering than the previous Queen of the Southern Kingdom, was actually kneeling in front of Luo'er at this moment!
Moreover, he was not kneeling as the king of a country, but to Luo'er herself. He was asking her for help!
Even his large and powerful hands were trembling slightly at this moment, as if he had lost control due to excessive tension.
Every subtle movement seemed to reveal his deep inner uneasiness and worry, fearing that Luo'er would refuse his request to go with her.
Emperor Xuanwu's mouth was almost crooked with smiles. Fortunately, the little girl was his own granddaughter. If she was not his biological granddaughter, Emperor Xuanwu would not feel so at ease.
He and God are grandfather and grandson. Thinking of this, he couldn't imagine the future of Dongsheng Kingdom.
"If you want to kneel, go kneel outside. Kneel until I'm satisfied, and I can consider it."
With that attitude just now, Luo'er was still unhappy.
"This……"
The king of Xiyue Kingdom was extremely embarrassed. It was raining heavily outside and he had to kneel there.
She can do such a thing.
The King of Xiyue Kingdom actually knew that Luo'er was angry about what happened just now.
Damn it, if only I had known why I was so rude just now.
He knew clearly that this little girl had some abilities, yet he still provoked her like this.
He suddenly realized that he was simply asking for trouble.
"Princess Shengyang, I am the ruler of a country after all. Please give me some face. In addition to the two million silver taels, I will also give you an extra 200,000 taels to buy some toys and food for you, Princess Shengyang."
The King of Xiyue Kingdom smiled and apologized quickly.
Being able to kneel down for her was already a great honor, and it was indeed because of her amazing abilities that I couldn't kneel down.
If I were seen kneeling in the palace, and word spread from one person to another, then... my reputation would be completely wiped out from the entire continent.
Luo Er thought for a moment and said with a smile, "Then you go out first. I'll reply to you when I think it through. I still have something to say to Grandpa Huang."
The king of Xiyue was somewhat helpless. He really couldn't kneel down in public. However, since he was considering it, there must be hope.
Take your time, after all, the God of War of Xiyue Kingdom is the patron saint of his own country.
If he doesn't wake up, the Xiyue Kingdom will really be facing the trend of destruction!
Luo'er is a noble person in their country and must be respected. It's okay, there is still a lot of time.
The King of Xiyue Kingdom smiled and saw Luo'er staring at the pastries. He immediately took the initiative to walk over and put the pastries in Luo'er's hands personally.
Emperor Xuanwu looked at him with disdain and almost gave him the middle finger to show his contempt.
But the king of Xiyue Kingdom turned a blind eye to it. In the face of huge interests, these were nothing.
As long as Luo'er is willing to go to their country, not to mention working like a slave for Luo'er, he will have to do whatever Emperor Xuanwu asks him to do.
"Well, let's go out."
Luo'er glanced at him indifferently, then started eating the pastries.
"By the way, let's have a banquet tonight to welcome the king of Xiyue Kingdom."
Emperor Xuanwu took a deep breath, his eyes full of satisfaction and pride. With his little granddaughter around, he was so happy that his mouth was almost crooked. "However, Dongsheng Kingdom is short of funds and is not as strong as Xiyue Kingdom. So the cost of today's banquet may have to be borne by the King of Xiyue."
Damn it!
The King of Xiyue was so angry that his face turned ashen and smoke was coming out of his head!
The so-called host, which country asks guests to pay for a meal? This is simply a humiliation and insult!
If the guest really wanted to curry favor with the master to the extreme, then he might be willing to pay the money, but doing so would only make him look like a toady rather than a truly dignified person.
Therefore, this behavior is not only an insult to the guests, but also a contempt for the entire country.
However, facing the provocation of the King of Dongsheng, the King of Xiyue felt angry and humiliated, but he had to respond in the end: "Thank you for your hospitality, King of Dongsheng. Don't worry, the expenses of the banquet are just a small matter, a small matter!"
This sentence is full of helplessness and compromise. Although his heart was full of dissatisfaction and anger, the King of Xiyue chose to be patient and give in.
He understood that although this Emperor Xuanwu was extremely thick-skinned, he was also very good at taking advantage of others' misfortunes!
If you offend them on impulse, the consequences will be disastrous.
Therefore, he could only suppress the anger in his heart and hide his inner anger with a smile and politeness.
In fact, he cursed Emperor Xuanwu a thousand times in his heart, and even the ancestors of the entire Dongsheng royal family were comforted.
But Emperor Xuanwu didn't care about these things. Since he became emperor, he could only eat a little better when he attended banquets in other countries.
In his own palace, he had never been extravagant. Even as Luo'er said, his underwear had several holes in it, and he would then patch it up and wear it.
Ugh!
Emperor Xuanwu had already been thinking silently in his mind about what dishes he would have the imperial kitchen prepare and which chef he would hire this time.
After all, I don’t have to spend my own money, so I might as well indulge myself!
"Come here, prepare for today's state banquet. I want to have a full banquet today, not a single dish can be missing."
Before the King of Xiyue left, he heard Emperor Xuanwu loudly order, "Also, invite the most famous team outside the palace to perform court songs and dances. Tonight's show must be the best."
"Also, remember to invite all officials above the sixth rank tonight. Their families and so on, all come together."
After Emperor Xuanwu gave his orders, he did not forget to glance at the eyes of the King of Xiyue.
chi chi...
He thought that one day when his country became prosperous and everyone could live a life of plenty, he could also taste the flavor of the Manchu-Han Banquet.
Now that other people are spending money, he is very happy.
"By the way, King Xiyue, what do you think of this proposal?"
Emperor Xuanwu looked at the King of Xiyue with a smile on his face. That guy was feeling particularly unhappy. His heart was bleeding when he thought about others spending his own money on a big meal.
