BXBX NOVEL Chapter 412
Emperor Lin had no doubts about his hatred for the Great Lin Empire.
The Yong Kingdom was truly stubborn, as they wouldn’t relent until they exhausted any possible means to lay havoc on the Great Lin Empire. Should the Song Empire agree to the alliance, the Great Lin Empire would face being attacked from both sides. The state of the Song Empire was no longer the soft bone it was in the past, and if the two countries formed an alliance, the Great Lin Empire would face the disaster of annihilation. No wonder Emperor Lin fainted with anger when he saw this urgent report.
Since the spy had already relayed the news, at this time, the Prince of the Yong Kingdom might have already met Emperor Song. Without further ado, Lin Qing immediately summoned the courtiers to enter the palace. Emperor Lin was still in a coma, so he could only assume the responsibility of being the Crown Prince and discuss how to resolve the matter.
The atmosphere in the palace became tense.
Lin Feilu read the urgent report many times, thinking about the possibility of Song Jinglan agreeing to the Yong Kingdom’s proposal.
After thinking about it, she realised that she didn’t know what he would do.
He was no longer the harmless little Prince in the Great Lin Empire’s Palace back then. Also, she no longer had any idea of her importance in his heart when it was compared to power and triumph.
When Lin Qing had an emergency discussion with the other courtiers, she stayed with him in the Yangxin Palace.
In the end, the courtiers unanimously negotiated a plan to send some envoys to the Song Kingdom immediately. Even if they knew that the Song Emperor might hate the Great Lin Empire, they had to explain the importance of the Song Emperor not forming an alliance with the Yong Kingdom from the perspective of the Three Kingdoms.
At the same time, it was reported that General Xi and the military defences of their various stations were on standby. The army was prepared to go to the frontier at any time should the Song Empire decide to wage war on them.
While the Great Lin Empire was making emergency deployments, on the other hand, the Prince of the Yong Kingdom and his entourage had indeed arrived at the Song Empire.
The citizens of the Yong Kingdom usually live in the grasslands, hence their superb prowess at horse riding and archery. However, because of the two natural moats of Mount Yong and River Huai, they have been unable to conquerkl over the fertile land of the Central Plains. Hence, when the Prince passed by the fertile lands and lush greenery, he felt nothing but jealousy.
It’s just that the Yong Kingdom coveted the Great Lin Empire more than they did the Song Empire.
One of the reasons was due to the geographical location. Although they were adjacent to the Great Lin Empire, they were still quite far away from the Song Empire.
The second reason was the accumulation of grudges. The Yong Kingdom was a very vengeful and calculative group. When they were engaged in war with the Great Lin Empire back then, so much blood was shed for three days and it became an eternal source of hatred in their hearts. This hatred would never dissipate unless the Great Lin Empire was destroyed.
The Prince of the Yong Kingdom went to the Song Empire in person this time, so it could be said that the Yong kingdom entourage were very sincere. Based on what they knew about the new Emperor of the Song Empire, there didn’t seem to be any reason for him to refuse their proposal of alliance.
