An Eight-year-old Princess novel Chapter 1372

"Come for peace?" Yun Shang raised her eyebrows and exchanged a look with Luo Qingyan.

Luo Qingyan also smiled, "Your Highness have already expressed your state's willingness to establish friendship with the state of Xia when you just came here for the first time, haven't you? Why did you ask for peace again? "

"Let's be straightforward. I am sure your majesties have understood what I mean. It's meaningless to pretend like this, isn't it?"

Ling Ziyue sat up straight and went on, "I admit that I came here to inquire about the situation of your state. If we find we can win, we will send out troops to attack you.

However, after getting along with your majesties these days, I have found that it is not easy for the State of Youyue and the State of Yihai to win the state of Xia.

Not to mention that if the State of Youyue and the State of Yihai declare war, we have to send troops across the ocean. Even if we are able to bring troops and horses to cross the ocean at last, the state of Xia is a hard nut to crack ."

Ling Ziyue raised his chin slightly and then went on, "In this world, this is not the only continent, nor is the State of Xia the only country. Instead of spending a lot of energy to chew a hard bone without knowing what the result will be, it is better to choose a soft persimmon to handle with."

Yun Shang exchanged a look with Luo Qingyan.

What Ling Ziyue said was very straightforward and seemed to be true.

Luo Qingyan smiled, "Go on, your highness."

Ling Ziyue continued, "As for me, I don't like a too powerful opponent, but I welcome a well matched friend. I've been in the State of Xia for a long time and know the general situation of this continent. As long as the Empress is still the Empress, and the Emperor is still the Emperor, the State of Ning and the State of Xia will always be friendly nations. And even your child will ascend the throne in the future, thus I'm afraid you two states will always be friends.

As for the State of Yelang, it will be separated by both the State of Xia and the State of Ning. I'm afraid it won't be able to hold on for a long time after being sandwiched between you two states. In the end, it will eventually become your spoils.

Once the State of Yelang perishes, this continent will become the world to both the State of Xia and the State of Ning, just like our continent which belongs to both the State of Youyue and the State of Yihai."

With pride in his eyes, TLing Ziyue went on, "But on that day, your majesties will soon find out that if you work hard, you may be able to let the people of the State of Xia enjoy better life with clothes to wear and food to eat in the next few decades. But still it's not easy for you to create a real prosperous world. On the one hand, this land is too densely populated, and its supplies are too limited.

On the other hand, if you keep on self-enclosed, do not go out, do not communicate with the outside world, you will eventually be difficult to get real development.

If you really want to create a flourishing world, you'll have only two ways. One is to keep expanding the territory of the State of Xia, occupying more places and robbing more fresh materials on the continent.

The other way is that you should really go out and communicate friendly with the people on other continents."

Ling Ziyue raised his head slightly and continued, "I can help you with these two ways."

Luo Qingyan nodded, "It makes sense in some way. Since the people from the State of Youyue and the State of Yihai came to the Jin City, I've found out that it is not good to stay in the same old groove. Sooner or later, the door of our State of Xia will be opened either by ourselves or by someone else. "

Luo Qingyan leaned back and rubbed his forehead, "In fact, I don't want it to be opened by others. Just as Ling Ziyue said, maybe they can't annihilate the State of Xia directly but they can disturb the peace of our state. "

Yun Shang nodded and looked down at the handkerchief in her hand. After a while, she said, "Your Majesty, do you mean... to follow Ling Ziyue's idea? We'll establish diplomatic relations with the State of Youyue and the State of Yihai? "

"It's not impossible, but the conditions have to be negotiated."

Luo Qingyan thought for a moment and then went on, "I do want to send someone out to see what kind of world it is outside our state."

Yun Shang and Luo Qingyan had been married for so many years. Hearing Luo Qingyan's words, Yun Shang roughly understood what he was thinking. After a pause, she nodded slightly and said, "Okay, it's up to your majesty."

After another pause, she continued, "But Ling Ziyue can't be trusted completely. I'm afraid that this is his tactic of delaying the battle."

"Okay." Luo Qingyan also understood the situation, "Thus, I just said that the conditions need to be discussed. I'll check the calendar and pick a good day to gather the officials in the court and discuss it carefully."

Since Luo Qingyan had made up his mind, Yun Shang didn't say anything further. She stood up and was about to leave, but she saw a servant rushing into the palace, "Your Majesties, something happened to their Former Majesties..."
