After the child's mind was read, the tyrant caught the male queen with a black face

System: [No. She aborted the child, saying, "I don't want to sacrifice any of my talent for the sake of hurting my own Chen State." She burned down the Chen State palace and retired to the countryside. The fact that Chu State was able to conquer Chen State so quickly was also due to this fire.]

The Minister of Rites' pupils trembled: ...This operation is difficult to comment on.

He silently crossed out some of the records. He didn't dare to replicate a heroine with such a personality in Xia Country.

Yuan Ruan was stunned: [Ah? She doesn't like the Chen Kingdom. She can change the dynasty after she ascends to the top! ]

The system was silent for a moment: [Yes. ]

Yuanruan was silent for a while: […I can only say that I may be tired. Everyone has their own aspirations. Wait, what about the love line? Didn’t you say the male and female protagonists? Where is the male protagonist? ]

The Minister of Rites regained his spirits.

That’s right, if the female lead is hard to replicate, you can try the male lead!

The system once said that Daxia had no male and female protagonists, and it was easy to be killed by the plot. So he thought, could he snatch the male and female protagonists from other countries? If that didn't work, he could create a pair according to their template, or even ten pairs to try! Maybe one day the Heavenly Dao would be dazzled and give a little luck to them.

System: [That’s a background male protagonist. He’s the guard who helped Envoy Liu set fire to the palace. What’s his name?]

Yuan Ruan's mouth twitched: [Tong'er, you... remember the heroine's story so clearly, but you even forgot the hero's name? ]

The system felt a little aggrieved: [I can’t do anything about it. This male protagonist rarely appears, has an ordinary identity, and does some odd jobs. I thought he was the female protagonist’s pawn, but who knew he would be the CP who retired in the end.]

Yuan Ruan quickly comforted him: [After all, this is a revenge story, and everyone is looking forward to when the heroine will turn the tide. If the story of the sweet love between the heroine and the hero is suddenly interrupted by tens of thousands of words, the readers' resentment will probably be heavier than ghosts. So it's normal that Tong'er didn't notice it. ]

The system was immediately appeased and said: [Aruan is so nice to me, I'm fine with that! I'll give you some CP candies right away. ]

After that, the system starts working hard to find the details of the incident.

The Minister of Rites listened carefully, and after a while, he reluctantly crossed out the record of the male protagonist of Chu State. Because this man was too ordinary, his personality, experience, family background, etc., were common in Daxia.

Afterwards, the Minister of Rites carefully recorded some gossip about a certain official of the State of Chen.

At this time, another man from the opposite delegation stood up and argued that "the territory should belong to the State of Chen". The doctor of the Ministry of Rites looked up and smiled. What a coincidence, isn't this the guy who committed the "land annexation" incident that just appeared in the melon? !

Then the Minister of Rites directly mocked the other party with the criminal fact of "land annexation".

The man from Chen Guo was so stunned that he sat back down, trembling with fear.

Yuanruan also noticed that Daxia had the upper hand again: [Tong'er, stop eating melons, let me see how mighty and domineering Daxia is. ]

System: [Okay.]

The officials of the Xia State who were passionately recording gossip were reluctant to leave.

The doctor of the Ministry of Rites, who was sitting at the outermost, suddenly whispered to the assistant minister of the Ministry of Rites next to him, "Sir, why don't we speed up the process and end the test?"

The Vice Minister of Rites looked at the Doctor of Rites speechlessly: My dear brother, you don't want to speed up just to eat the melon!

System: [Oh, by the way, I forgot to mention that after she retired, she became the master of the Queen of Chu.]

Minister of Rites and others: !!!

According to the information once revealed by the system, the State of Chu was the final winner, and the male and female protagonists of their country had the greatest reference value.

This is great, I must take note and try to replicate it.

Yuanruan: [Hmm? Don’t worry, let’s wait and see how the negotiations go.]

Everyone eating melons: ...

Ah, little state master, you can watch this while eating melons!

The Vice Minister of Rites and the Doctor of Rites looked at each other, and then the Vice Minister of Rites quietly passed a note to the Minister of Rites.

It said: Lord Shangshu, it's almost certain, why don't we speed up the negotiation process?

The Minister of Rites glanced back at his subordinates, but... he also wanted to eat melon.

So he nodded slightly and waved to the back.

At this time, an envoy from the State of Chen slammed the table and said, "These two cities originally belonged to our State of Chen. You shamelessly occupied them. Now you want three million taels of silver for military expenses and supplies. It's simply asking for too much! Aren't you afraid of being laughed at by the world for being so arrogant?!"

At this time, several sturdy young men walked in. Seeing this unusual scene, the Chen envoy also became cautious.

Yuan Ruan looked at them carefully and blinked. Wait, aren't these people officials from the Ministry of War? Why are they all wearing official uniforms from the Ministry of Rites?

The officials from the Ministry of Rites who were originally sitting there arguing with the State of Chen tacitly made way for three seats.

The Chen State envoys looked at the newcomers in confusion.

Immediately afterwards, several burly men from the Xia State stepped forward one by one, each pulling out an envoy from the Chen State, then putting their hands on the other's shoulders and clenching their fists with a forced smile.

Then, they had the following conversation:

Xia country man: "You want us to spit out the meat we have already eaten?! Bah! No way. You don't want to spend three million taels? Okay, I'll give you the capital of Chen country in exchange."

The Chen envoy was angry: "You, how can you be so rude!"

The Xia country man raised his fist and said, "Ha! We are just too polite. It just so happens that General Lin wants to continue his expedition to the east. Tell me, if I kill the envoy, will it give the general a chance to continue making achievements?"

The Chen envoy panicked: "...We can talk about it again, talk about it again."

The official from the Ministry of Rites smiled slightly and said, "Of course we can talk about it. Since so many of you died, I'll give you a caring price. Two million, please..."

The envoy from the State of Chen turned green in the face.

……

The originally gentle and elegant scene was instantly destroyed. The civil officials spoke viciously, and the military generals used their fists and feet insidiously, killing the Chen State envoys without any chance of resistance.

Yuanruan was stunned, his mouth twitching: [Ah, this... is wonderful! As expected! No matter how artistic it was before, it was all "great magnanimity" in the end! ]

The system was excited: [This is what I want to see! It's exciting! But Chen Guo didn't resist even after being hit in the face? He just cooperated like this? ]

Yuan Ruan looked at the Chen State delegation who dared to be angry but not to speak, and suddenly thought of what the emperor said before he sent her here.

——As a winner, you don’t have to worry about anything and you can do anything.

She sighed: [Because Xia Guoqiang has become stronger, and is the winner. ]

The system suddenly became excited: [That's right! Ah Ruan, you will always be the winner. Awooo! ]

Yuanruan didn't quite understand why the system suddenly got excited, but he still cooperated and let out a "Woo!"

The onlookers were almost melted by the cuteness.

Several strong men smiled coquettishly, which made the Chen official, who was being strangled by them, tremble. He became even more frightened and had to give up some benefits. Then he repeatedly requested to discuss the matter again in a few days.

Seeing that the delegation was about to leave, Yuan Ruan yawned: [Okay, Tong'er, tell me how the male and female protagonists of Chu State are involved? ]
