Crown Prince of the Empire, I quit!

Chen Shimao's face turned serious, and he said in a deep voice:

"Are you two joking?"

“We do what we say!”

At this time, Prince Yu reconfirmed his conditions.

Chen Shimao fell silent and didn't say another word.

This time, he came here fully prepared and was confident that he could win the negotiations.

But no one expected that Prince Yu would be so crazy.

Cede half of the city!

This has touched Chen Shimao's bottom line.

"Your Highness Prince Yu, I want to ask you again, are you sure you want to cede the city to the Southern Tribes?"

"I... am sure!"

Prince Yu felt uneasy when Chen Shimao looked at him.

But now that he has embarked on this path, there is no turning back.

Hearing this, Chen Shimao said coldly:

"The imperial court boasted of suppressing the rebellion, but in the end, they left us, the rebels, to guard the country's borders!"

"How ridiculous that you gave up your territory to someone else!"

"With the way you guys are behaving, there's no point in talking to you anymore. Let's fight!"

Although he came here with a mission, Chen Shimao also has his own persistence and bottom line.

It is impossible to separate any part of Daqian's territory.

"But I must warn Your Highness, from now on, the imperial court is standing against the people and the Daqian Dynasty. We traitors will lose all our reputation!"

"Farewell."

Turning around, Chen Shimao left without any hesitation.

Chang Baishan on the side also spat at the two of them.

"From top to bottom, they're all traitors!"

Upon hearing this, Prince Yu and Prince Liang remained silent without saying a word.

Only then did Lan Chongshan finally tentatively ask King Liang:

"Since what you two just said is true, then the Southern Hundred Tribes are willing to cooperate with you. However, we don't know when the initial supplies will arrive."

"Yes, it takes some time to prepare for our army to move forward."

The matter was finally settled, and the southern tribes took the opportunity to show their fangs.

It’s not that easy to get them to help.

They will only mobilize troops after seeing the benefits.

As for the expenses incurred by these people going out to fight, the court must bear them.

"Everyone, don't worry. Since we promised you, we will send the supplies when we return."

King Liang heaved a long sigh of relief and made a promise to them.

No matter how much they were cursed, at least they won the negotiation.

But at this time, Prince Yu on the side frowned, his face still full of worry.

After thinking about it, he said to Lan Chongshan:

"Elder Lan, now that the negotiations are complete, I have a favor to ask of you."

"It's nothing, but it doesn't matter."

"It's like this. Chen Shimao, who just left, may not be very skilled in martial arts, but he is incredibly talented. If we let him go, it would be like letting a tiger go back into the mountains. I'd like you to arrange for someone to kill him!"

There was a hint of madness in Prince Yu's eyes.

When they heard this, everyone around fell silent, and even King Liang tugged at his sleeve.

"That's enough. Do you really have to kill him all? He's Prime Minister Chen!"

"No, if you want to do it, you have to do it to the best of your ability!"

Prince Yu didn't think there was anything wrong with his method.

They were already at a disadvantage when facing Qin Ming on the battlefield.

At this time, if Chen Shimao, who comes in time of need, could work under Qin Ming.

The pressure on them at that time will definitely be enormous.

This is a war, there is no room for morality.

In order to solve the problem of Chen Shimao, he must kill Chen Shimao even if it means losing his reputation.

Several elders on the side looked at each other and then looked at Lan Chongshan.

Even among the hundreds of tribes in the south, they had heard of Chen Shimao's reputation.

If you forcefully attack this guy, you will most likely face Qin Ming's crazy revenge!

After thinking for a moment, Lan Chongshan slowly said:

"Sorry, my lord, we can't do that."

"That's a fight between you two. If Southern Baidu takes action to kill Chen Shimao, this matter will be too deeply implicated with us."

Lan Chongshan did not say anything final.

The implication is that Prince Yu should take action himself and kill Chen Shimao.

They can choose to turn a blind eye.

But this time, Prince Yu and Prince Liang came with only a few hundred people.

The last time they were asked to stop Chen Shimao from arriving, many of them died.

Now, it is difficult to pose a threat to Chen Shimao with only a few hundred people.

"I see."

Despite being under tremendous pressure, Prince Yu still gritted his teeth and agreed to this matter.

Turning his head, he whispered a few words to King Liang.

Although the other party had some doubts, he finally nodded.

"Then let's say goodbye."

The two men clasped their fists towards Lan Chongshan and others, then turned and left.

In the forests outside the mountains.

Chen Shimao had only walked a few miles.

Chang Baishan soon felt the approach of pursuers.

"Prime Minister Chen, something seems to be wrong. Some people are following us."

"After the negotiations broke down, they wanted to take action against us."

Chen Shimao was not surprised.

They can all cede land.

It is normal to launch a sneak attack at this time.

"Are we going to fight?"

"Hit me, I'm a little angry."

Chen Shimao spoke seriously.

As a scholar, he has always taken the country and the people as his own responsibility.

I saw with my own eyes that people were ceding land in front of me, but I was powerless to do anything about it.

This made him feel like he was on fire!

Stretching out his old hand, he pulled out the musket from his arms and wiped it gently.

Soon, a series of sparse sounds came from the woods.

The figures of Prince Yu and Prince Liang appeared in front of Chen Shimao and Chang Baishan.

"Prime Minister Chen, you're leaving in such a hurry. Is there something urgent?"

"Protecting the country is of course very important, but why are you two here now? Do you have something important to tell me?"

"We want you to stay here."

A fierce gleam flashed in Prince Yu's eyes.

He slowly drew out the long sword from his waist.

When hearing this, Chen Shimao was not afraid at all.

His cloudy and deep eyes were fixed on Prince Yu and Prince Liang.

"Didn't the Nanman people come?"

"No."

King Liang shook his head.

Prince Yu revealed a meaningful smile.

"It seems that even the southern barbarians know that when two armies are fighting, envoys should not be killed."

"You two have gone to extremes. If you continue like this, the destruction of Daqian is inevitable."

Look how calm he is.

Prince Yu next to him clenched his fists.

He really doesn't like the feeling of being judged.

After a cold snort, he pointed at Chen Shimao and yelled:

"Yes, but even if the dynasty were to fall one day, you old man wouldn't be able to see it!"

"Kill me!"

As his words fell.

Hundreds of soldiers quickly rushed out of the mountains and forests, wanting to kill Chen Shimao here.

But soon, the people led by Chang Baishan guarded around and fought with them.

Chen Shimao, who was sitting in the center, was not at all panicked.

With the weapons and ammunition given to him by Qin Ming, he was able to kill nearly ten people in one round.

The sound of bangs and bangs echoed throughout the mountains and forests.

It was only at this time that Prince Yu and Prince Liang discovered it.

It turns out that Chen Shimao is the most difficult person to deal with in this team.

"What is he...holding?"

Prince Yu asked in disbelief.
