The Ming Dynasty: The most ruthless imperial grandson, Old Zhu begged me not to kill him.

Chapter 470 A Feint

At this moment, the Empress, who was standing to the side, was still very worried about her daughter and hurriedly said something.

"Your Majesty, although our daughter has made a mistake, please give her a chance because she is young!"

"Perhaps he has a reason for doing this!"

“Our daughter has been smart since she was little, so there must be a reason for what she did. Why don’t we summon him over and ask him? I believe the truth will come out!”

Upon hearing this, the emperor of the Khmer Empire felt somewhat conflicted. After all, she was his own daughter, and it was impossible for him to have no feelings for her.

After thinking about this place, he took a deep breath.

"Alright, let's see what he has to say!"

"If he can't persuade us, even if I can spare him, the entire court will not let this matter go!"

Thinking of this, the Khmer emperor sighed. He had no choice but to do many things.

When the Khmer princess returned to the palace, the emperor was furious.

"So you finally decided to come back? Have you forgotten what your mission was in the Ming Dynasty?"

"Now that the mission is not completed, you have decided to marry a prince on your own. Do you know that the prince has little say in the Ming court and he is not on good terms with Zhu Xiong Ying? Your marriage to him means nothing to the Khmer people!"

"And if we really anger Zhu Xiong Ying, and he directly mobilizes his army to attack us, do you know how much damage that will do to us?"

The princess of the Khmer Empire heard this.

He almost burst into tears, and then he looked at the emperor in front of him and said...

"Daughter knows she was wrong, but this matter wasn't because of her. It's just that Zhu Xiong Ying is too despicable; he looks down on us completely!"

"What's even more hateful is that this person insulted our Khmer daughters. We made this decision because we couldn't stand it!"

Upon hearing this, the people in the court frowned. Clearly, they had never heard of this scene before and did not know whether it was true or false.

These people frowned as they spoke.

"Is what you're saying true?"

"You'd better think carefully before you speak. If these things are false, you should know what your fate will be!"

The Khmer princess frowned, her anger rising. She was furious that even a court official didn't respect her.

However, the Khmer princess nodded nonetheless.

"Of course these are true. Even if you gave my daughter a million times the courage, she wouldn't dare to lie!"

Everyone frowned upon hearing this.

Zhu Xiong Ying was indeed very assertive, so it was normal for him to say such things. Everyone frowned. If it were true, it might not be a good thing for them, as it would mean that Zhu Xiong Ying was destined to be an enemy of their Khmer Empire.

The Ming army is extremely powerful and can never be dealt with. If the Ming army were to attack them, the chances of them being able to stop them would be extremely slim.

At this moment, the Emperor of the Khmer Empire spoke up. "Then why did you marry Zhu Yunwen? As far as I know, Zhu Yunwen is merely an unfavored grandson of the emperor. He has no outstanding qualities whatsoever, and it seems that most people in the court support Zhu Xiong Ying!"

"That's what the princess of the Khmer Empire said."

"It is precisely because Zhu Yunwen and Zhu Xiong Ying are at odds that I did this in this way!"

"Bring Zhu Yunwen to our territory. Even if the Ming Dynasty wants to attack, we will have to consider his situation. Otherwise, the Ming Dynasty will lose face. This is equivalent to placing him as a hostage on our territory!"

"Moreover, Zhu Yunwen is not as useless as you imagine. At least most scholars in the Ming Dynasty support Zhu Yunwen!"

"If we can grasp this force, it will be of great use to us. Those scholars do not want to start these wars; it is only the military generals who really want to fight!"

"In the Ming Dynasty court, the relationship between civil officials and military generals is not very good. This is our opportunity!"

Upon hearing this, everyone frowned. It seemed to make some sense; with this, the Ming Dynasty would definitely not attack them rashly.

The emperor of the Khmer Empire sighed upon hearing this.

"Although he can't be compared to Zhu Xiong Ying, he's still a pretty good guy!"

Then the princess of the Khmer Empire continued speaking.

"In fact, Zhu Xiong Ying is full of malice towards us. Even if we want to form a marriage alliance with him, even if our daughter marries him, it will be of no use. Given his personality, he will definitely not let it go!"

"The reason I acted on my own initiative is because I understood these things. All of this was for the sake of our Khmer people. I beg Father to see the truth!"

Everyone nodded after hearing this, and then one person stood up and spoke.

"Your Majesty, I believe the princess is right. Zhu Xiong Ying, the grandson of the Ming emperor, is a wolf in sheep's clothing and will never let us go!"

"I believe they will continue their attack soon, but it will be different if we get Zhu Yunwen in our hands. Zhu Yunwen is, after all, a grandson of the emperor!"

"Now that they're on our territory, they're practically hostages. If we hold this trump card in our hands, Wang Bi and Mu Ying will definitely not dare to attack!"

Then our Khmer Empire will be invincible. Everyone nodded in agreement.

If you think about it carefully, the strength of the Ming Dynasty is so formidable that they are not capable of dealing with it at present, especially since the Ming Dynasty has a lot of technology.

If they could extract those technologies from this prince, or obtain some other support, it would be an excellent thing for them.

Thinking of the potential profits involved, everyone nodded. Although the emperor of the Khmer Empire was still somewhat uneasy, the presence of this person provided some psychological comfort. After thinking of this, he breathed a sigh of relief and looked at the officials in the court.

"Alright, if that's the case, then so be it."

"We must not show the slightest disrespect to Zhu Yunwen, the grandson of the Ming emperor, or else I will not be so lenient!"

Everyone else nodded after hearing this.

At this moment, Wang Bi and Mu Ying gathered together, and when they learned of this news, they were very surprised.

"What is the emperor of the Khmer Empire thinking? I originally thought they would arrange a marriage between him and the crown prince. If that's the case, I'm afraid it might cause some trouble if we start fighting!"
