Chapter 25: Surrender
Shen Wenzhou and the Empress Dowager were seen walking towards this side. It could be seen that the smiles on their faces were a little forced and filled with awe.
"Prime Minister, what are you doing?"
"What's wrong with Princess Shen? Don't you know these two?"
"I...of course I know them. These are my royal brother and mother, but why would they..."
"Why are you here? Of course it is for the reunion of your family. After all, Princess Shen has come all the way. If she doesn't have her family to accompany her, she will definitely be lonely. So I made my own decision and brought the two of them from Ziyang. The Imperial Dynasty took it over."
"Princess Shen, you won't be unhappy."
Yue Tianyou looked at Shen Qingyue with a pair of deep black eyes. At this moment, Shen Qingyue felt a strong sense of oppression coming towards her.
Just by being looked at by Yue Tianyou's eyes, Shen Qingyue felt that it was a little difficult to breathe.
This man knew his actions well from the beginning.
Everyone seems to know that they will come to the Great Xia Dynasty.
Just now, Shen Qingyue naively thought that she could enter the Prime Minister's Mansion so smoothly because her mother and brother took care of it.
Because of Yue Tianyou's improper management, those subordinates secretly tried every means to make money.
However, this is not the case at all.
No one who works under Yue Tianyou dares to make money wantonly, unless they don’t want to live anymore, they will do such stupid things.
What's more, the salary given by Yue Tianyou is not large. Regardless of the salary that can be allocated to any position, it is definitely more than those given by the forces around the Great Xia Dynasty.
He has a good salary, and if he is discovered, his life will definitely be in danger.
And as long as it is within the territory of the Great Xia Dynasty, it will be discovered 100%, so no one will do such a thing.
Soon, Shen Wenzhou and the beautiful woman arrived in front of them.
"Queen Mother, Brother Emperor, you..."
Shen Qingyue stood up and came to the two of them.
"All three of you are distinguished guests, please take a seat."
As soon as Yue Tianyou opened his mouth, Shen Wenzhou and the beautiful woman did not dare to hesitate and sat down immediately. They did not even dare to look at Yue Tianyou and kept their heads lowered, looking at a loss.
Shen Qingyue didn't know what happened during her absence to make her royal brother and mother so afraid of Yue Tianyou.
However, Shen Qingyue also felt Yue Tianyou's terrifying aura just now, which made her unable to breathe.
It is rumored that the prime minister of the Great Xia Dynasty was very vicious and powerful, which made people laugh.
Perhaps, his queen mother and imperial brother had witnessed Yue Tianyou's terrifying scene, which made them become so obedient now.
Yue Tianyou said: "Would you like some tea?"
Shen Wenzhou and the beautiful woman shook their heads desperately, and then nodded immediately.
The two of them were also afraid that Yue Tianyou would give them the poisoned tea, but when they thought that it would be easy for Yue Tianyou to kill them, why bother with so much trouble, so they did not dare to go against Yue Tianyou's words.
"Serve tea."
Soon, a maid brought the tea and placed it in front of the two of them.
The two of them carefully picked up the tea cups and took a sip. Yue Tianyou said, "Does the taste still suit your taste?"
"Very good, very good. Thank you, Prime Minister, for the tea."
Now the two of them don't look like the king of a country and the empress dowager at all. They don't have the slightest dignity. They look like submissive villains who only follow the crowd.
"What is the purpose of Princess Shen's visit to the Great Xia Dynasty this time? Let the truth take a guess."
"She should be here for the survival of the Ziyang Dynasty. However, Princess Shen seems to have overestimated herself. Do you think that just by relying on her beauty, she can make her true self surrender under your pomegranate skirt?"
Yue Tianyou changed the subject and turned his eyes to Shen Qingyue again.
Shen Qingyue felt as if her heart was being strangled by a pair of invisible hands, leaving her breathless.
After a while, Yue Tianyou regained his momentum, and Shen Qingyue took a few deep breaths before letting her breathing calm down.
Yue Tianyou said: "The Ziyang Dynasty, if I remember correctly, did not use troops against the Daxia Dynasty when the Daxia Dynasty was in danger. That's right."
Shen Wenzhou said: "That's right, that's right. It's too late for us to become allies with the Great Xia Dynasty, so how can we dare to use troops against the Great Xia Dynasty."
The beautiful woman echoed: "Yes, Prime Minister. We just want to be allies with the Great Xia Dynasty, and we don't dare to think about other things."
"If you want to become an ally with the Great Xia Dynasty, your requirements are a little too high."
Shen Wenzhou and the beautiful woman looked at each other. What did Yue Tianyou mean? Did he really want to use troops against the Ziyang Dynasty?
If this is the case, there is no way they can be the opponents of the Great Xia Dynasty.
After all, they know the fate of the Golden Lion Kingdom very well.
Plop!
Shen Wenzhou knelt down at this moment. If the subjects of the Ziyang Dynasty saw him like this, they would probably be disappointed.
The dignified king of a country is so undignified.
But for Shen Wenzhou, dignity is nothing. He just wants to survive now.
After all, he was born into a royal family and has enjoyed wealth and power since he was a child.
Now that he is still so young, there are still too many beautiful things in the world that he has not enjoyed, so Shen Wenzhou naturally does not want to die.
As long as you can survive this life is the most important thing.
"I still hope that the Prime Minister will show his noble hand and never use troops against the Ziyang Dynasty. I am willing to make offerings to the Daxia Dynasty every year in the future."
Yue Tianyou said: "The Prime Minister did not say that he would use troops against the Ziyang Dynasty. After all, your country has not yet taken advantage of the Great Xia Dynasty's crisis. How could the Prime Minister do anything to add insult to injury?"
"But..."
Shen Wenzhou, who was originally ready to breathe a sigh of relief, felt anxious again. He looked at Yue Tianyou with his eyes and asked cautiously: "But what?"
Yue Tianyou waved his hand and saw a sheepskin scroll falling on the stone table in front of him.
"Then your Majesty, just put your fingerprints on this. From now on, we will be a family. Naturally, I will not do anything to a family."
Shen Wenzhou and the beautiful woman stood up and looked at the parchment scroll in front of them. When they saw clearly what was written on it, they were both surprised.
There is not much content written here, it is very brief.
There is only one condition. If the Ziyang Dynasty wants to survive, it must become part of the Daxia Dynasty. There is no room for negotiation.
But when the time comes, we can give Shen Wenzhou lifelong wealth, give him a city, and let him carve out land there and become king, and live his life in the wine pool and the meat forest.
