Chapter 1073

As Cen Yuan expected, Li Changfeng came to meet with Booth tonight to discuss the empty city plan. "Second Prince, the Queen Mother hopes that you will not be deceived by Emperor Mingde. The Jinghua Arena did not look like this before. Those strange things are probably used to confuse you."

Booth listened gloomily and watched coldly, and felt that these sinister villains of the Li family were obviously worried that their Wan Kingdom would back down, so they said this deliberately.

I couldn't help but ask sarcastically, "May I ask if the Queen Mother has ever been to the Jinghua Arena in person?"

Li Changfeng was stunned by this question, "Of course I haven't been there."

"Then Lord Li must have been there, right?" Booth's contempt became even more obvious.

Li Changfeng's face flushed red, "I, I am a civil official, what am I going to do in the arena?"

Booth laughed, "The Queen Mother is worrying too much. She is worried that we Wan people will change our minds at the last minute and won't help you, right? That's why she deliberately asked you to tell me this. Tsk, Lord Li, you are just making things worse! You haven't been there, how do you know if the Jinghua Arena was like this before?"

Li Changfeng felt that every meeting with the Wan people was not a pleasant one. "Although we have never been there, some of our military officers have trained there, so they know everything clearly."

Booth waved his hand, "Don't you know what's going on with your Li family? Don't think that we Wan people are so isolated from the news. The Empress Dowager's people were excluded by Emperor Mingde long before she was imprisoned in Xishan. How can you know what Emperor Mingde is going to do?"

Li Changfeng was so embarrassed that he was speechless. He had to rely on others but couldn't say anything rude. He was so angry that he felt so depressed.

Booth added, "We Wan people should either not agree to such a thing, or we will definitely fulfill our promise if we agree. Lord Li, please tell the Queen Mother that after the matter is accomplished, we should also honor the promises made to us Wan people."

In fact, Li Changfeng didn't know what the Queen Mother had promised, nor did he know who the Queen Mother had at her disposal, so he could easily get in touch with the State of Wan.

After all, the Queen Mother is still wary of her own family. Li Changfeng felt a headache just looking at Booth, so he bowed and hurriedly said goodbye.

Booth rolled his eyes and said, "Master Li, please stay. I heard that Master Li has a daughter named Li Lanzhi?"

Li Changfeng paused for a moment before asking, "What does the Second Prince mean?"

Booth smiled sinisterly, "What do you mean? Of course it's good intentions. Since we both want to cooperate deeply, and Lord Li is the nephew of the Queen Mother, shouldn't we do our best to be a good host?"

Li Changfeng's face changed, "You want my daughter to..."

Booth laughed loudly, "After the matter is settled, our two countries will form an alliance, and your daughter can marry this prince as his concubine. Now it's just an early wedding night."

Li Changfeng still had some of the character of a Northern Wing scholar. "I am having an affair without a matchmaker. Who do you think my Li family is?"

The smile on Booth's face gradually disappeared, and his eyes were indescribably gloomy and bloodthirsty, making people tremble. "Who are the Li family? To my Wan country, they are beggars; to Beiyi, they are traitors. Tell me, who are you, the Li family?"

Li Changfeng's face lost all color and he left angrily.

Booth looked at his back and said coldly, "This prince will wait for Miss Lanzhi tonight. If you can't wait, it means that your Li family is not sincere enough, and the cooperation is cancelled."

Li Changfeng left Anyi Pavilion through the back door and got on the carriage back to Beijing. He showed his badge, entered the city gate, and turned to a house.

Someone in the house secretly passed the message to Baron Chen of Fuguo. That person was the man in black who often came and went around the Queen Mother.
