Chapter 270

Wu Xiong, upon hearing this, became anxious instantly.

"Second Princess, do you really want to negotiate?"

Chu Qingluan looked at Wu Xiong with disdain, "We've already reached Changancheng; does this Princess still need to negotiate?"

"This Living Yama wants to disgust this Princess, so this Princess will also disgust him. Does he really think he is the only one in the world who knows how to use schemes?"

Chu Tianfeng's eyes lit up, "How many commoners are on the walls of Changan City, the Great Qian Empress knows in her own heart."

"If that Great Qian Empress doesn't agree, the officials might be dissatisfied, and our army will have no losses; if she agrees, then she has fallen into the trap!"

"This alienation strategy of the Second Princess is beautiful!"

Wu Xiong's expression also improved.

If they could kill the Living Yama without a fight and then lead the army to attack the city, it would be equivalent to getting twice the result with half the effort.

Chu Hong wore battle armor, his face filled with a murderous aura, and he smiled, "Second Princess, leave this matter to this subordinate."

"Follow me!"

Chu Hong pointed at a few Chu army soldiers, left the camp directly, and headed toward Changancheng.

Soon.

On the city walls.

The sharp-eyed Lu Zhen said loudly, "Your Majesty, someone has come from the Chu army camp."

"A few riders are coming toward Changancheng!"

Wu Zhao heard the voice, and her eyes looked over.

"What is their intention?"

Gao Yang's eyes were cold, and he said, "Those who come are not good, and those who are good do not come. Looking at this arrogant and domineering appearance, they are definitely not here to surrender."

Soon.

Chu Hong rode a tall steed, leading a few cavalrymen, their faces filled with disdain, their bodies straight, and they arrived at the foot of Changancheng.

"I am Chu Hong, the Longshui Captain of Great Chu, and I am an envoy of Great Chu. Where is the Great Qian Emperor?"

Chu Hong shouted loudly, his voice spreading far away.

An envoy of the Chu army?

For a time, the officials were shocked, and Lu Wen, Xu Xuanji, and others were all confused.

Song Li frowned and lowered his voice, "Could it be that the Chu army wants to negotiate, really scared by the momentum of our Great Qian?"

Gao Tianlong heard this and said lightly, "The Chu army has already reached the city walls, pointing their swords at Changancheng; how could they negotiate?"

Wu Zhao frowned and gave Shangguan Wan'er a look.

Shangguan Wan'er immediately stepped forward and said loudly, "His Majesty is right here; what is the intention of the Chu envoy?"

Chu Hong saw Shangguan Wan'er appear, his face first filled with amazement, then he shouted loudly,

"Chu Hong is ordered to come and has a few words for the Qian Emperor!"

Shangguan Wan'er spoke again, "What words?"

Chu Hong was only a captain and was not qualified to speak with Wu Zhao.

Chu Hong was full of arrogance and shouted loudly, "Great Chu and Great Qian concluded a covenant, not to invade each other, and could have enjoyed eternal peace!"

"But Great Qian intended to cut off the rivers of the Yarlung Tsangpo River and the Canglan River, cutting off the water of Great Chu. This act is intolerable to both gods and men, and Great Chu cannot accept it, so we have sent troops to Great Qian!"

"But Great Chu is a vast nation that loves peace and cannot bear for the two nations to fall into war. Therefore, as long as the Qian Emperor agrees to two conditions from our army, we can negotiate and enjoy peace again!"

Once these words were spoken, the officials were shaken, and the expressions of Xu Xuanji and Lu Wen were filled with excitement.

The Chu army had the intention to negotiate!

Even Wu Zhao frowned.

What on earth was the Chu army doing?

It was impossible to reach Changancheng just because of the illusory strategy of cutting off the water!

This must have been planned long ago, and they had even started preparing when she had just ascended the throne.

Gao Yang frowned, noticing something was wrong.

Shangguan Wan'er looked at Chu Hong at the foot of the city and continued to ask, "What conditions?"

"First, Great Qian must submit to Great Chu and become a vassal state of Great Chu from now on; the Qian Emperor must kneel to receive the imperial edict!"

"Second, the culprit who proposed cutting off the rivers of the Yarlung Tsangpo River and the Canglan River and cutting off the water of Great Chu must die!"

"Gao Yang must be killed before we can negotiate!"

Once these words fell.

The officials on the walls of Changancheng suddenly flashed with shock.
