The Demon Queen of Divine Doctor is not to be trifled with

Chapter 810: A Century of Peace

Ye Wenyan didn’t know whether King Su Yuan had a chance to become an immortal. She only knew that she had now gotten a piece of the five-colored stone she was looking for.

Ye Wenyan unceremoniously picked off the stone from the dragon crown, in front of everyone, including the old king, the owner of the dragon crown, as if it was his right.

The old monarch shuddered, thinking, is this chance to become an immortal gone so quickly?

Then Ye Wenyan turned her palm over, and another identical stone appeared in her hand. Then, in front of him, she stuffed the fake stone that appeared later into the groove of the dragon crown.

The old king twitched his lips, and wanted to ask what the fake one was made of, and what the real one was. He even wanted to ask, "Your Majesty, you took away such an important thing without even telling me?"

Unfortunately, he didn't dare to speak, as he had a natural fear of the Emperor and Empress.

But just because he himself didn't dare to talk to the emperor and empress, it didn't mean he didn't dare to instigate his son to talk to the emperor and empress. So, the old monarch looked at Lou Qinghan, and Lou Qinghan understood instantly.

He asked Ye Wenyan: "What did you take away and what did you replace it with?"

Before Ye Wenyan could say anything, Feng Zhaolian slapped him on the head, "Stop talking so much nonsense! Whatever the Emperor and Empress took away, it's their due! What in this world doesn't belong to the Emperor? The Emperor belongs to the Empress, so no matter what it is, it belongs to our Ah Yan."

Lou Qinghan nodded immediately, "I know, I know, I understand the reason, I'm just asking out of curiosity!"

Feng Zhaolian said, "Why are you asking? Didn't I tell you before? Ah Yan wants this purple gem of yours. In exchange, she will keep the throne for you two. What a good deal! You got a bargain, don't you know? Why don't you thank Ah Yan?"

King Su Yuan was indeed a king, his reaction was several beats faster than the prince. When he heard that Ye Wenyan was willing to help them save the throne, he immediately started a new round of kowtows, and kept chanting: "Thank you, your Majesty, thank you, your Majesty."

Lou Qinghan also thanked Ye Wenyan, and finally he responded, "Since I have already promised you, I will definitely do what I say. As for this gem, I do have a special use for it, and I thank your Majesty for giving it to me."

Su Yuan thought, this is not what I am willing to give, you took it out by yourself. But he dared not say this, so he could only follow Ye Wenyan's words and said, "It is my honor and Su Yuan's honor to be able to help the Empress and the Emperor with their worries and difficulties."

Feng Zhaolian was very satisfied with his attitude and said to Lou Qinghan, "Learn from your father."

Just after she finished speaking, the old king asked again, "I wonder if the Empress said she could help us keep the throne. Do you take it seriously?" Ye Wenyan nodded, "Of course I take it seriously, but I also need your Majesty's cooperation. In addition..." She paused and continued, "The thrones of the two of you can be kept, and the position of the crown prince can also be kept, but I want a promise from Su Yuan."

King Suyuan was stunned. "I wonder what promise the Empress wants to make? Are you asking me, Suyuan, to pay tribute to Northern Qi?"

Paying tribute to another country means becoming a vassal state. Although the Suyuan Kingdom is small, its status has been stable for hundreds of years because of the existence of the high priest lineage. Whether it is a big country like Northern Qi or Guiyue, they have never thought of making an enemy of Suyuan. Even though Northern Qi has an emperor, the emperors of all dynasties have never thought of touching Suyuan.

He has always been proud of this, but now the emperor and empress have spoken. If he doesn't respond, can he still keep the throne?

King Su Yuan took another look at the dragon crown. Although the gems on it were exactly the same as before, he didn't know if it was a psychological effect, but he felt that the dragon crown was different from before. But what if it was different? He was the king, so he had naturally heard of the legend about the dragon crown.

When our ancestor was alive, he once said that with this dragon crown, Su Yuan would prosper for three hundred years.

Now that the three hundred years deadline has arrived, it no longer matters whether the dragon crown exists or not.

Therefore, the prophecy of Su Yuan's everlasting prosperity has come to an end.

King Su Yuan was going to give in and wanted to say that they could submit to Northern Qi, because Northern Qi had an emperor!

Before he could finish his words, Ye Wenyan shook his head and said to him, "Northern Qi does not want your annual tribute."

Lord Su Yuan thought he had heard wrongly, "No?"

"Yes." Ye Wenyan said, "No annual tribute, but you need Suyuan to open the border to Northern Qi and allow normal trade between the two countries. Northern Qi can send goods to Suyuan, and Suyuan can also send special products to Northern Qi. The two countries will establish peaceful diplomatic relations for a hundred years. As for how it will develop after a hundred years, that is the business of the younger generations, and we don't need to worry too much about them."

King Su Yuan was shocked. Just trading goods and establishing friendly diplomatic relations between the two countries, is this considered a condition?

There is still a period of 100 years. If we can continue to trade peacefully, even after 100 years, there is unlikely to be a war! After all, people in any country are not fools. They always want to fight when life is good.

Suyuan Country is small and has a small population. Although they also have the desire to expand their territory, they will not have enough manpower to fill the gap if a real war breaks out. They have the heart and courage of a thief, but they do not have the strength to be a thief.

So the old monarch thought that being stable is the best.

But he couldn't guarantee what his descendants would think.

So he asked Lou Qinghan: "What exactly did you negotiate with the regent of Northern Qi? Break the agreement!"

Lou Qinghan thought to himself, "Can you not be so blunt? This is not a glorious thing after all." Ye Wenyan was not on good terms with the Regent. Don't let him remember that he had planned with the Regent to help usurp the throne and beat him up again.

As expected, Feng Zhaolian and Quan Qinghua both looked at him. Lou Qinghan quickly raised his hand: "I will definitely destroy it. In fact, it has already been destroyed. Last time I went to Northern Qi, I didn't gain any advantage. I also saw that the regent is a waste, so I will never cooperate with him again. Of course, I will never cooperate with anyone again. Ye Wenyan, if you can ensure that Northern Qi and Su Yuan will be on good terms for a hundred years, then I will listen to you in the future." After all, you are the emperor and empress, and everyone in the world listens to you two. It's not shameful.

Ye Wenyan nodded, "In that case, it's settled. I will make plans for you regarding Second Prince Su Yuan's affairs. Finally, I have one more question. In addition to this purple gem, have you ever seen similar stones of other colors?"
