Transmigrated To Another World: General, I'm Not Your White Moonlight - Chapter 316

Chapter 316: Political Marriage Offer
Seeing that everyone had stood up, Luandi Lirong looked at Woyan Yongxiong, gritted her teeth, and asked in a low voice, “Why don’t you stand up yet? Because of you, our country has become a laughing stock!”

Woyan Yongxiong came to his senses and stood up. He looked at his trembling hands, which were covered in cold sweat, and the fear in his heart grew. Before he could control his emotions, Yi Zitao walked up to them.

Standing in front of them, he clasped his fists politely, “Greetings, Jiu Gongzhu and General Woyan. My name is Yi Zitao, and I am the Minister of Rites. I will handle everything for you while you stay in our Xia Empire.”

Luandi Lirong looked at the middle-aged man in front of her and said, “I want to live in the most luxurious palace.”

Faced with her arrogant words, Yi Zitao said calmly, “There are regulations for the envoy’s accommodation place and treatment. We have prepared everything, and Jiu Gongzhu can just follow me.”

Without waiting for Luandi Lirong to reply, Yi Zitao turned to look at Wu Shanxian and said, “General Wu, please escort the envoys to the Envoy Pavilion.”

Wu Shanxian nodded, then looked at Luandi Lirong and Woyan Yongxiong, “Please come this way.”

Luandi Lirong wanted to protest, but under the cold eyes of the ministers and generals, she swallowed back her curse. She flicked her sleeves and angrily left Junshi Xianhe Hall with Wu Shanxian and a group of imperial guards.

At the same time, the news that Luandi Lirong and Woyan Yongxiong met with Emperor Yong’an spread like wildfire in the imperial capital city. When the common people heard that the Xiong Nu was going to surrender to the Xia Empire, they immediately held a celebration festival.

Sitting on the second floor of the best restaurant in the imperial capital city, the first prince of the Xiong Nu looked at the bustling streets below. Seeing the smiles on the faces of the common people preparing for the celebration festival, he tightened his fingers on the teacup.

One of the envoys saw this and asked, “Da Huangzi, what should we do now?”

Luandi Siqi took a sip of the already cold tea and said, “General Woyan is a coward, but he is not stupid. Since he dares to say we want to surrender, he must have found out something we don’t know, or maybe he has a plan. Let’s find him and Jiu Gongzhu first before we make the next plan.”

The envoys looked at each other for a moment, then bowed and said, “Yes, Da Huangzi.”

After eating, Luandi Siqi and his party went to the imperial palace. Unlike Luandi Lirong and Woyan Yongxiong, Luandi Siqi and his party brought many tributes with them. They also brought the official letter from Luandi Huiyun to Emperor Yong’an.

Many people watched the long convoy curiously on their way to the imperial palace. Sitting in the horse carriage, Luandi Siqi looked at his younger sister and said, “A Wan, I’m sorry. Elder brother is useless and couldn’t protect you.”

Luandi Liwan looked at her elder brother, shook her head, and said, “Da Huang Xiong, as the princess of our country, this is my duty. As long as my marriage can bring peace to our people and end the war, I am willing.”

Luandi Siqi looked at his younger sister, who was born to the same mother and clenched his hands. He lowered his eyes, and a look of determination flashed inside those deep eyes.

Since his younger sister was forced to die by their father, he must win the favor of the Xia Emperor and become the next Chanyu. When the time comes, he will return all the humiliation and torture that his mother and younger sister have suffered over the years to Luandi Lirong.

As for Luandi Yilun, he would not kill him as long as he chose to remain as the carefree second prince.

Two hours later, Qiu Yuanbo received news of the arrival of Luandi Siqi, Luandi Liwan, and the envoys. Qiu Yuanbo took Luandi Huiyun’s letter in his hand and went to the imperial study room of Yang Xin Palace. Soon, he came to the closed study door.

Qiu Yuanbo bowed slightly and said, “Your Majesty, the Xiong Nu’s Da Huangzi, Shisan Gongzhu, and the seven envoys are here under the order of Chanyu Luandi.”

In the imperial study, Emperor Yong’an discussed what happened in the imperial court with several ministers and generals. After hearing Qiu Yuanbo’s words, the ministers and generals all looked at Emperor Yong’an.

After a moment of silence, Emperor Yong’an said, “Please come in.”

The two soldiers guarding the door listened to Emperor Yong’an’s words and opened the door for Qiu Yuanbo. Soon, Qiu Yuanbo stood beside Emperor Yong’an, holding a delicate small wooden box in his hand.

“Your Majesty, the Xiong Nu’s Da Huangzi has brought you a letter from Chanyu Luandi.”

Emperor Yong’an nodded, and then Qiu Yuanbo placed the wooden box in front of him. After opening the box, Qiu Yuanbo stepped aside. When Emperor Yong’an read the letter, the ministers and generals exchanged curious glances.

Not long after, Emperor Yong’an chuckled and put down the letter. Upon seeing this, Yuan Dongke asked, “Your Majesty, what does Luandi Huiyun want?”

As Minister of War, Yuan Dongke was more concerned about the border situation than the envoys sent by the Xiong Nu. Emperor Yong’an saw his expression and said, “What Woyan Yongxiong said today is actually true. It’s really surprising.”

Tapping the box with his slender fingers, Emperor Yong’an added, “Luandi Huiyun said that he wants to form an alliance with us. He sent their Shisan Gongzhu, Luandi Liwan, to marry Zhen.”

As soon as he said this, everyone fell silent. When Woyan Yongxiong announced that the Xiong Nu were going to surrender, they already knew that if this was true, then a political marriage was inevitable.

Seeing that everyone was silent, Emperor Yong’an smiled and asked, “Do all of you have any suggestions regarding this matter?”
