What to do if you have too many golden fingers? Walk sideways!

"What? Submit to Fengyi Kingdom? How is that possible!"

"It would be good enough if Fengyi Kingdom surrendered to Northern Yan, but a woman still wants Northern Yan to surrender. She is just dreaming!" A minister shouted, jumping to his feet.

"Oh!"

"what!"

Chu Zhao suddenly took action, picked up a pen on the dragon table and threw it out, hitting the minister who had just shouted at him in the mouth. He lost two teeth and his mouth was full of blood. He covered his mouth and screamed.

Chu Zhao said coldly:

"You have made irresponsible remarks about the Empress of Fengyi Country. This is just a small lesson for you. If you do it again, it will be your head."

Gu Xi looked at Ji Mie next to him:

"What does the Emperor of Northern Yan think?"

Ji Mie shook his head:

"The Empress has gone too far. How can I give up my ancestors' legacy?"

Gu Xi raised his eyebrows:

"So you want to abandon the people of Beiyan?"

There was a trace of struggle in Ji Mie's eyes.

"Can the Queen change the conditions?"

Surrender was impossible, but he also didn't want to watch the people of Northern Yan starve to death.

A famous general stepped forward and said:

"Your Majesty, we are not without bargaining chips. General Ba Huai is currently stationing troops at the border."

Another minister stepped forward and said:

"Yes! Since the Queen of Fengyi Country can provide food, we in Beiyan can also consider withdrawing our troops."

Of course, this is just a delaying tactic. Once Northern Yan’s troops become strong enough, they will still march south.

Their emperor has been acting very strangely lately, but it doesn’t matter, he will figure it out one day.

Chu Zhao snorted coldly:

"With your so-called army, you still want to invade my Fengyi Kingdom? Haha, you probably haven't heard of thunder?"

Ji Mie and the ministers' faces changed.

They had heard of the thunder from the sky. It was said that the Turks were destroyed because of the thunder from the sky.

But they believed that it was the end of the Turkic luck and they were just unlucky to be struck by lightning.

Could it be possible that the Queen of Fengyi Kingdom could attract thunder from heaven?

Gu Xi smiled.

"It's just as you think. I have plenty of thunder here. Do you want to try it?"

All the ministers looked at each other.

this--

They were worried that the Queen of Fengyi Kingdom would cheat them, and they were also worried that the Queen of Fengyi Kingdom would bomb them.

Ji Mie thought for a moment and said:

"I would like to broaden my horizons. I wonder if the Empress can attract the thunder from the sky to see it? It would also open the eyes of me and my subjects."

To be honest, he was a little skeptical. Even if the empress was a messenger from heaven, could she still ask for whatever she wanted from heaven?

If this is true, he could consider surrendering to Fengyi Kingdom. After all, the arm cannot twist the thigh, and man cannot defeat God.

Gu Xi said:

"If we use the heavenly thunder, this palace will probably be destroyed. I have another kind of grenade here, which is less powerful. Let me show you."

After saying that, Gu Xi took out a grenade from the space and handed it to Chu Zhao.

Everyone was stunned. How could the Queen of Fengyi Kingdom take things out of thin air?

Magic tricks?

Chu Zhao walked towards the entrance of the hall. The guards holding bows and spears took a few steps back, but still pointed their weapons at Chu Zhao.

Chu Zhao didn't care at all. He just stood at the door and saw a bare rockery not far away. There was no one nearby, so he pulled the fuse and threw it out.

Ji Mie and other ministers also crowded at the palace entrance, looking out.

There was a loud bang, and the rockery collapsed instantly, smoke and dust rose, and countless pieces of rubble flew everywhere like raindrops.

Some of the guards who were closer were hit by the rubble and screamed in pain.

Everyone present was stunned and extremely shocked.

They never imagined that such a small thing could have such great power that it could instantly reduce a two-person-high rockery to ruins.

It’s too shocking!

Chu Zhao said with great pride:

"What do you think of the power of hand grenades? The power of sky thunder is ten or a hundred times that of hand grenades. If we use it to attack Beiyan, how many days do you think it will take to flatten Beiyan?"

Everyone came back to their senses from the huge shock and looked at Gu Xi and Chu Zhao with complicated eyes.

terrible!

I didn't expect the Queen of Fengyi Kingdom to be so powerful!

All the ministers turned their eyes to the emperor. After all, the throne belonged to their Ji family, and the boss had the most say in whether the company should be acquired or not.

Although they were unwilling to surrender, they did not dare to be the first to do so, for fear that the grenade would fall on their heads.

Ji Mie was shocked. He smiled bitterly:

"Since the Empress has such a magical weapon, I think it is not nonsense to grow crops in that cold and barren land. If the Empress can really make the people of Northern Yan well fed and clothed, I am willing to hand over this country to her."

Gu Xi and Chu Zhao were overjoyed and said:

"Then please ask the Emperor of Beiyan to sign the letter of credence. From now on, Beiyan State will be renamed Beiyan Prefecture and become a vassal state of Fengyi State."

As he spoke, Gu Xi took out a letter from the kingdom that had been prepared long ago from the space, handed it to Ji Mie, and asked him to use his seal.

The ministers wanted to struggle a little longer.

"Your Majesty, please think twice!"

They were thinking that even if they wanted to surrender, they should discuss the terms first.

For example, can these hard-working and meritorious ministers also hold important positions in Fengyi State?

Ji Mie read the letter and found that it was indeed written on it that as long as Beiyan submitted to Fengyi Kingdom, Fengyi Kingdom would provide enough food to the people of Beiyan.

He personally stamped the seal on the letter of credence.

Gu Xi and Chu Zhao happily took the letter from the credential.

Just at this moment, the one-hour time limit was up. Ji Mie shuddered and looked at the letter in Gu Xi's hand, wanting to slap himself in the face.

Why did he agree to surrender?

But just now, what he was thinking in his heart was that surrender would be a good thing so as to save the lives of the people of Northern Yan.

But if this happens, wouldn't the Ji family's kingdom be destroyed in his own hands?

No, no!

He can't do this!

But I just made a fool of myself and signed my credentials. What should I do now?

The Empress of Fengyi Kingdom is so powerful that he will definitely fail if he wants to snatch her away by force.

Then-

Ji Mie narrowed his eyes, and a hint of viciousness flashed in his eyes.

"Hahahaha... After I hand over the land of Beiyan, Beiyan and Fengyi Kingdom will be one family. We are one family and should not have different opinions. Today, I will hold the last state banquet to entertain the honorable Queen of Fengyi Kingdom and this——"

Ji Mie looked at Chu Zhao.

Chu Zhao immediately introduced himself:

"I am the husband of the Empress of Fengyi Country."

"And the honorable Royal Highness."

Afterwards, he ordered people to take Gu Xi and Chu Zhao around the palace, and he called a few important ministers to go to the imperial study.

"Your Majesty, how could you really agree to surrender to Fengyi Kingdom?" said a minister.

Ji Mie said solemnly:

"The situation just now made me disagree. Otherwise, how could we survive?"

Another minister asked:

"So, what the emperor did just now was a temporary measure?"

Ji Mie nodded, his face grim.

"How can we allow others to interfere with the Ji family's kingdom? I want to stabilize them first, and then find a way to get rid of them!"

The minister worried:

"They are too powerful. The guards can't get close to them. What's more, they have grenades and sky mines. What should we do?"
