Chapter 481: Your Highness, please fight on my behalf

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone's eyes fell on Shen Shuyi.

Shen Shuyi looked calm, without showing any sign of panic.

But I have to say that it is really intriguing that Prince Luo was able to pick her out from the huge crowd in the palace at a glance.

Even though she was standing beside the empress dowager, in a high place, there were still many imperial concubines and princesses on both sides of the jade steps.

Before Shen Shuyi could speak, the court officials below could no longer sit still: "You Luo country are so arrogant that you ask to marry our Daqian county lady right away."

"That's right. I don't know how skilled your prince is in martial arts, but his tone is quite arrogant."

"Do you really think that there is no one in my Great Qian? If Luo Kingdom loses, what can it give to my Great Qian?"

Seeing that he was being questioned by the ministers, Luo Guo did not back down.

Daqian has indeed been prosperous in recent years, but it has also suffered from numerous internal and external troubles, and is far from being a place where all nations can come to pay tribute.

Luo State is the strongest among the neighboring countries. Although it was defeated by Daqian in two wars a few years ago, it was not easy for Daqian to win.

In the past few years, Luo Guo has been secretly building up his strength, and once the opportunity comes, he will target Daqian again!

The prince of Luo said loudly: "So she is a county lady! I thought she was the princess of your Daqian!"

"If Your Highness doesn't want to, you can replace him with a princess from Daqian!"

These words made everyone even more angry.

Concubine Rou had a cold expression on her face and scolded, "My princess of Daqian is a golden branch and jade leaf. If Luo Guo sincerely asks for her hand in marriage, Your Majesty might consider it. But you want to marry my princess of Qianguo as a concubine, which is really outrageous!"

Xiao Heyu had a smile in his eyes, and his beautiful and charming peach blossom eyes showed a little gloom.

The disappearance of Chai Bin and others is closely related to Xie Jingchi and Shen Shuyi.

No matter which of these two people, they must die!

Compared to the favored Xie Jingchi, Shen Shuyi is naturally easier to deal with.

Now Luo Guo wants to choose between her and the princess, and he wants to see how Shen Shuyi will refuse.

Xiao Tingshan was sitting at the back among the officials, his face pale.

Xiao Heyu was quite dissatisfied with him recently. The post of Inspector General sent to Jiangnan was temporarily shelved, and his reward was also left unresolved.

Now that Prince Luo mentioned Shen Shuyi, it might be related to Xiao Heyu.

It was just a choice between the princess and Shen Shuyi, and Shen Shuyi had no chance to refuse. Otherwise, if she dared to push the princess of Daqian out, not to mention His Majesty, even the Queen Mother would be dissatisfied with her.

"Shen Shuyi, what do you think we should do?" Emperor Qianwu looked at Shen Shuyi with a stern gaze.

Shen Shuyi said with a smile, "I am a princess of Daqian and I will never be your concubine. I am grateful for your love. If you win, you will be a young hero. It is not a bad idea for Shuyi to be your concubine."

Shen Shuyi spoke frankly, which made many people look up to him.

Shen Jingchuan frowned, he would never be willing to let his daughter marry the prince of Luo. Daqian and Luo had been fighting for generations, they just shook hands and made peace temporarily in recent years because they could no longer fight.

One can imagine what the situation would be like if Shu Yi married into the royal family of Luo State.

On the other side, Zhao Baokun and Zhao Baopeng were also a little impatient. Zhao Baopeng looked at his father not far away and whispered, "Dad, I'll go."

Zhao Dechuan shook his head: "Don't act rashly."

Old Master Zhao had a sharp gaze and although he was sitting far away, he was signaling to his children and grandchildren not to act rashly.

Although he had no evidence, his intuition was still there.

This matter is not that simple. Maybe he is coming for Shuyi or their Qingyuan Marquis Mansion.

Zhao Baokun also felt a lump in his throat when he saw this scene.

The appearance of the Luo prince can actually be described as handsome, but his arrogant tone and contemptuous attitude make him act as if his cousin is just a worthless thing.

He really wanted to chop off his head!

The prince of Luo State smiled and said, "The county lady is straightforward. In that case, I..."

Before he finished speaking, Shen Shuyi interrupted him: "If Daqian loses, I am willing to be your concubine, but if your Highness loses, what should I do?"

The prince of Luo Kingdom paused and said: "If we lose, how about giving your majesty a princess?"

Emperor Qianwu sneered: "I am not interested in the women of your Luo country. Although Luo country is strong in military and horses, its women are not as gentle and docile as our Daqian women."

With just one sentence, he humiliated the prince of Luo.

Shen Shuyi spoke again: "If Luoguo loses, please admit it to His Majesty here and be willing to submit to His Majesty Daqian!"

Hearing this, Xiao Tingshan's throat tightened and he felt that Shen Shuyi was really smart.

His Majesty just said that the women of Luo Kingdom are not as good as the women of Daqian, which offended Luo Kingdom. Then she knew how to please His Majesty.

As expected, as soon as Shen Shuyi said this, Emperor Qianwu spoke loudly: "Okay! I, Daqian, will not bully the weak. Let's do as Princess Changning said. What do you think, Prince Zehua?"

Qiu Zehua's face changed slightly. This involved the face and honor of the Luo Kingdom, so it was naturally not that simple.

But now that he has made this start, there is no reason to back down.

Even if he risks his life, he must not lose face for the Luo Kingdom!

However, Xiao Heyu's plan might have gone wrong. Not only did he fail to outwit the Princess of Changning County, but he was also controlled by her!

"Okay, Your Majesty, please send someone!" Qiu Zehua's eyes were burning and full of fighting spirit.

Emperor Qianwu's eyes fell on the audience, and he said in a deep voice, "Who is willing to consult His Royal Highness Luo Guo on behalf of Daqian?"

After Emperor Qianwu finished speaking, there was silence for a moment.

Although this is a time when everyone wants to be in the limelight and to win face, no one is a fool, and opportunities and risks coexist.

After all, winning can bring honor to the family, but if you lose, you will lose more than just your own face.

What's more, the third prince of Luo State is well-known for his prestige. Not only is he gifted, but he is also extremely warlike. Not only that, he is cruel and has great combat power. Many famous generals of Daqian have died at his hands.

If they fight in public, who knows whether this cruel and bloodthirsty prince will kill them. Losing face would be a small matter, but if they lose arms and legs, they can only blame themselves for their bad luck.

Xiao Heyu's expression remained unchanged. The Luo Kingdom was indeed strong in both military and cavalry. Even the soldiers were mostly tall and strong, and their weapons were sophisticated, so Daqian always suffered losses in every battle.

Fortunately, Daqian had sufficient food and grass, and many capable generals, which enabled it to narrowly defeat the Luo Kingdom.

But if they were taken separately, the soldiers of Luo State were much stronger, and Daqian had a hard time fighting them.

"I am willing to fight with him!"

"I am willing to do so!"

"I am also willing to compete with the prince of Luo country!"

"..."

No one was willing to admit defeat, even though they knew it would be a fierce battle. Once someone took the lead, others followed suit.

Emperor Qianwu nodded and glanced at the people below.

Shen Shuyi looked at Emperor Qianwu and said respectfully, "I have a suggestion."

"explain."

"Your servant would like to ask His Majesty the Third Prince to fight on my behalf." Shen Shuyi's voice was clear and resounding.
