"Your Highness!" Instantly, Zhu Qinghe looked at the Princess in shock.
Why would the Princess speak up for the little Emperor of the Eastern Imperial Kingdom.
At this moment, Dongfang Xueyan hurriedly said, "General Zhu, please stop. He's not an outsider, he's my junior brother!"
The moment these words were said.
Zhu Qinghe looked at the Princess in extreme shock.
"Princess, your junior brother is actually the Emperor of the Eastern Imperial Kingdom?"
Dongfang Xueyan nodded and looked at Zhu Qinghe. "General Zhu, our Nanxuan Kingdom is finished now. That Zhang Tiancheng isn't a human, but a demi-human!"
"So, no matter what, we can't let the imperial preceptor succeed. Therefore, we must take back the Nanxuan Kingdom!"
Zhu Qinghe nodded and said, "That's right. No matter what, we must take back the Nanxuan Kingdom. However, now that the Eastern Imperial Kingdom's army is pressing down on us and we've been captured here, I'm afraid..."
At this moment, Ye Chen smiled and said, "General Zhu, I didn't kill you because I want to cooperate with you."
"Cooperate? You're a member of the Eastern Imperial Kingdom. I won't cooperate with you!" Zhu Qinghe said resolutely and decisively.
Ye Chen smiled and said, "Oh, is that so?"
"Do you have the right to choose now?" Ye Chen asked coldly.
Ye Chen looked at Zhu Qinghe and continued, "Our Eastern Imperial Kingdom has an army of 500,000, but in your Zhengyang City, there are only 200,000 soldiers. We can crush them all the way to your Imperial City."
"Even so, I will fight to the death!" Zhu Qinghe immediately said.
Ye Chen smiled and said, "Do you still have the capital to fight to the death now? You are not in your Zhengyang Pass, but in the enemy camp of our Eastern Imperial Kingdom.
"Moreover, who are you fighting to the death for now? Your Nanxuan Kingdom?
"Hehe...
"No, you are fighting to the death now for the imperial preceptor of Your Nanxuan Kingdom. I think he is very happy to see you die on the battlefield. In this way, no one will be able to stop him from becoming the Emperor.
"If he becomes the Emperor, then the Nanxuan Kingdom will be under the control of the demi-humans. Therefore, you are putting your life on the line to resist us. You are not helping your Nanxuan Kingdom, but the demi-humans!
"Although we are different countries, we are still humans. Or do you want to become a lackey of the demi-humans?"
When these words were said.
Zhu Qinghe was rendered speechless. He could not refute Ye Chen at all.
Ye Chen looked at Zhu Qinghe and said, "Your only choice now is to cooperate with me."
At this moment, Dongfang Xueyan also opened her mouth and said, "General Zhu, father is already dead. Our Nanxuan Kingdom is now in the hands of the demi-humans.
"Although my junior brother is the Emperor of the Eastern Imperial Kingdom, he has been conferred the title of Human Emperor.
"We are also humans. I believe that junior brother will definitely lead the humans toward prosperity!"
"But, Princess, the Nanxuan Kingdom is an inheritance left behind by your ancestors. How can you hand it over to someone else?" Zhu Qinghe immediately asked.
At this moment, Ye Chen smiled and said, "If senior sister becomes the Empress of the Nanxuan Kingdom, I will not lay my hands on the Nanxuan Kingdom. We can form an alliance.
"Please make your choice. Otherwise, I will make the choice for you.
"If you don't agree, I will lead the army and crush your Nanxuan Kingdom. I will take control of your Nanxuan Kingdom," Ye Chen said coldly.
At this moment, Zhu Qinghe could only nod his head.
"I agree. What do you want to do?" Zhu Qinghe looked at Ye Chen and asked.
Ye Chen looked at Zhu Qinghe and said, "If the war continues, countless people will die. So, I want you to lead us directly into Tianyang City. We will kill the Imperial preceptor from within!"
Ye Chen looked at Dongfang Xueyan and said, "I need you and Fifth Senior Sister to put on an act with me!"
Soon after, Ye Chen arrived at the military camp. At this moment, Bai Luoli, Luo Shuihan, Black Flood Dragon, and Yang Xuan were all waiting for Ye Chen in the military camp.
"Your Majesty!" The moment Ye Chen entered, the four of them immediately bowed.
Ye Chen waved his hand indifferently and said, "There's no need to be so courteous!"
"Regarding the attack on Nanxuan Kingdom this time, do you have any plans?" Ye Chen asked.
At this moment, Luo Shuihan said loudly, "What plan do you want? I'll directly lead the army to attack the city and we'll definitely be able to take down Nanxuan Kingdom's capital."
Ye Chen knew that Luo Shuihan was extremely brave. With Luo Shuihan and Yang Xuan leading, they might not necessarily lose if they forcefully attacked. However, if they did so, their side would definitely suffer great losses.
Therefore, it was not advisable to forcefully attack!
"No, the price of forcefully attacking is too high. I do have an idea," Ye Chen said.
"Your Majesty, please speak!" The Black Flood Dragon did not support forcefully attacking. Although the Black Flood Dragon was not as valiant as Luo Shuihan, his brain was much more useful than Luo Shuihan's!
"The old-fashioned way. We sneak into the Royal Palace of Nanxuan Kingdom and assassinate Zhang Tiancheng. At that time, we can take down Nanxuan Kingdom without wasting a single soldier!" Ye Chen said.
"Assassinate?"
"Your Majesty, Nanxuan Kingdom is heavily guarded. How can we enter?" The Black Flood Dragon asked.
"It's true that we can't enter, but can anyone enter?" Ye Chen laughed.
"Your Majesty, are you talking about the Princess of Nanxuan Kingdom?"
"That's right. I've already discussed it with her. She will help us!" Ye Chen said.
"No, it's too risky!" At this moment, Yang Xuan who was standing at the side hurriedly said.
Everything Yang Xuan did was for the sake of Ye Chen's safety. Yang Xuan hurriedly said, "The death of the Princess of Nanxuan Kingdom's people isn't believable. If we enter the Imperial Palace of Nanxuan Kingdom and she sells us out, we'll be in great danger!"
Ye Chen knew that what Yang Xuan said was indeed reasonable. However, if they did not do this, they would have to forcefully attack. The price was too great.
Therefore, he wanted to gamble once!
Ye Chen said calmly, "Now, we can only gamble once."
"Your Majesty, this is too dangerous!" Yang Xuan said hurriedly.
...
Nanxuan Kingdom's Imperial Palace.
"Report --"
"Speak!" Zhang Tiancheng said coldly.
"Reporting to Your Majesty, Her Highness The Princess isn't dead. She escaped from the enemy camp and is now at the foot of our capital!"
Zhang Tiancheng was pleasantly surprised.
"Is the Princess alone?" Zhang Tiancheng asked.
"No, there are still a few people around the Princess. We have confirmed their identities. They are all the Princess' guards!" The spy said.
"The Princess is back?" Zhang Tiancheng asked coldly.
"However, why did the Princess suddenly escape from the enemy camp?" Zhang Tiancheng was suspicious.
"If the Eastern Imperial Kingdom doesn't release her, she definitely won't be able to return. It seems like the Eastern Imperial Kingdom did this on purpose. It seems like this is a ploy of the Eastern Imperial Kingdom!" Zhang Tiancheng said coldly.
"Your Majesty, should we let the Princess in?"
"Let her in. I will personally go and welcome her!" Zhang Tiancheng immediately said.
Dongfang Xueyan and the other three arrived at the city gate. The seven people who arrived looked like the imperial guards that the Princess had brought out. Although they looked like the imperial guards, their identities were obviously different!
They were Ye Chen, Yang Xuan, Little White, Big Black, Shangguan Xueyan, and Zhu Qinghe!
