Chapter 327 The real purpose of the Zeguo Banquet
He asked the guard of etiquette to stop on the shore, and only brought a few confidant palace ladies, walked across the bridge, and went step by step toward the pavilion in the middle of the lake.
The closer he got to Qin Jue, the more the old emperor couldn't help but lift his chest, wanting to be more imposing.
But it is undeniable that he was jealous of the person in front of him.
They are all emperors, but the Central Plains have rich resources, long-standing culture, and deeper heritage. Even the servants he brought by him seemed more educated.
What an exciting thing to be able to become the emperor of the Central Plains.
It’s a pity that he could have achieved the goal that his ancestors could not achieve and entered the Central Plains, but was destroyed by the new emperor in front of him and the national soldier named Xie!
I can only say that time is fate!
Putting aside identity, the man in front of him is also worthy of jealousy.
He is less than the age of a young man, but he is very skilled in martial arts, outstanding in appearance, extraordinary talent and natural demeanor.
God seemed particularly partial when shaping him. He almost took seven points away from Zhong Lingliuxiu, who was ten in the world.
And at the age of jealousy, he already gained everything in the world.
The most annoying thing is that there are more than one boy like this, not only two of them were born in Daqin, but they have not had internal conflicts with each other and have a good relationship. How come this is not jealous?
When he thought of the rumors that Qin Jue and Xie Linlang were in perfect harmony, and when he thought of his sons who fought to the death for the throne, the old emperor was uneasy and felt that migraine was about to strike again.
When Qin Jue saw him coming, he stood up and greeted each other.
The old emperor was smiling, and he could not tell that his two sons had died in a short period of time. He said to Qin Jue like a kind elder.
"It turns out that Qin Guojun likes to play chess, but unfortunately, I don't have the ability to play chess, otherwise I can have a game with Qin Guojun."
After the two sat opposite each other, someone immediately poured tea. Qin Jue thought of something and answered this.
"I remember that the princes of Zeguo are all outstanding. If there were one, I would have played chess with me. I have been here for these days and I really don't know how to pass the time."
When the emperor of Zeguo heard this, he couldn't help but think more.
Emperor Qin wants to see his son? Who do he want to see? What do he do to see his son?
Considering the increasingly dangerous national conditions now, he had a sudden inspiration and said with a smile.
"When the King of Qin mentioned this, I remembered that my fifth son, Qi Yin, is very good at chess skills. It's a pity that he has difficulty in legs and feet. If the King of Qin does not abandon him, I can let him play chess with the King of Qin and spend some time."
Qin Jue nodded and said indifferently, "I would like to thank Ze Guojun."
After chatting, the old emperor quickly got to the point.
"We are not acquaintance. In the past battle, I was not my wish. What I wanted to expand was the water field. I wanted to become the strongest country on the water throughout my life.
Unfortunately, many of the ministers and noble lords in the court had their ancestors from the Central Plains and had an inseparable feeling for the Central Plains. Although I am the emperor, I sometimes have to obey their opinions.
I believe the King of Qin can understand this. After all, the lords of Zeguo are like the aristocratic families of Qin. Even if they unite, even the king will have no choice."
This sentence is translated by: I originally wanted to dominate the sea and didn’t want to fight against the Qin Dynasty. It was all my ministers below who asked me to fight, and I was forced to do so, so you can hate them, but don’t hate me.
Qin Jue laughed in a low voice when he heard this. It turns out that he had been an emperor for decades and his face was thicker than that of ordinary people.
He opened his mouth and shirked the blame completely, as if he was so innocent.
He smiled and said, "Ze Guojun may say anything directly. All I bring is my confidant. Even if I hear anything, I will not spread it."
Seeing that he was so direct, the old emperor did not make any mistakes.
He smiled and said, "It's just to be refreshing to talk to the young man. I'm actually here to ask Qin Guojun if he is interested in making a deal."
Qin Jue lowered his eyes, "I hope to hear the details."
"That's right, I'm old and my only thought is to conquer the Kingdom of Rose before the deadline!"
"Dears ago, Rose took away Sky Bay and Oshima from my father's hands. I vowed in front of my father that in my lifetime, I would definitely take back Sky Bay and Oshima and conquer the country of Rose!
In order to realize this ideal, Zeguo has captured the islands and island countries along the Rose Kingdom over the years, and used them as strongholds to station naval forces. Once the time comes, they can attack in large quantities and fulfill their father's last wishes."
Qin Jue listened and screened out credible content.
Once Zeguo really conquers Tianji Bay and takes Roser, then their targets should be Yali and Tianmo.
If they can win these famous Three Kingdoms in the Sea, Zeguo will be the well-deserved overlord of the water! At that time, their eyes will definitely be on the mainland again.
Of course, it may take more than ten years to seize these Three Kingdoms and invade the Central Plains.
After all, although the national strength of those countries is not as good as that of Zeguo, it is not so easy to obtain, and a long naval battle is indispensable.
But Zeguo's current national strength is afraid that it cannot support such a long naval battle. Not to mention anything else, the consumption of money alone is a terrifying number. If Zeguo had money, he would not have had the idea of Central Plains before.
Thinking of this, Qin Jue asked.
"Since the king of Zeguo already has a constitution, what else should I intervene?"
When the old emperor heard this, he sighed.
"Originally, this battle is almost certain, but... it's all because of those greedy court officials who were bewitched and insisted on joining forces to attack the Central Plains. As a result, the navy was completely out of morale after the battle of the inland sea, so I was not sure about the next battle of Rose..."
Qin Jue raised his eyebrows slightly, "So the king of Ze wants the Qin naval army to help him? That's not possible. The Qin naval army is still under construction and cannot withstand long-distance naval battles."
The old emperor shook his head, "No, in terms of number of people, the Zeguo navy is still enough. What is missing at present is just some beliefs.
They were all scared by the explosion of fire bombs like the Qin Dynasty, so I had no choice but to buy some of those fire bombs from the King of Qin. I believe that in this way, their beliefs will double!"
Qin Jue laughed, "How can I be sure, I will sell the things to you, and you won't go back and beat me?"
The old emperor waved his hand and said, "How is this possible? Besides, the fire bomb is extremely crafted and cannot be copied elsewhere.
No matter how many fire bombs Daqin sold to Zeguo, the number was limited. Without subsequent supplies, how could Zeguo dare to fight against Daqin?"
His words were reasonable and his tone was very sincere. Qin Jue covered the sarcasm in his eyes and asked with a smile.
"So what to exchange for Zeguo?"
