Ling Ying continued: "In order to avoid greater casualties, we will concentrate all our forces to deal with the Sea Clan army, even if our entire army is annihilated, presumably your losses will be not small, if the empress has been fighting with the cranes and mussels to compete for the benefit of the fisherman, I am afraid that she will be disappointed!" ”

Shui Daiyin sneered: "You can't help but overestimate your own strength. ”

Ling Ying said: "The facts will prove everything, if the empress can consider the overall situation and let the soldiers of Cloud Piercing City evacuate smoothly, we will give Cloud Piercing City away!" ”

Shui Daiyin was slightly stunned, Chen Lin was really extraordinary, a combination of rigidity and softness, grace and power, this hand was really beautiful, but it was a pity that he ignored his hatred for him.

Shui Daiyin said coldly: "It's you who are wishful thinking, if I let you go, even if I successfully take Cloud Piercing City, I will inevitably turn against the empire, can't I weigh it clearly?" ”

Ling Ying said: "Chen Lin asked me to bring a letter to the empress. He handed over the letter in his hand, and Hui Yun Lisi took it with her own hands, checked it, and then put it into Shui Daiyin's hand.

Shui Daiyin took out the parchment scroll, but saw that there were no words on it, and there was a picture drawn on it, a fish with a white belly, and a fishing net that was broken by the fish. The fish is dead and the net is broken! Lose both! Shui Daiyin immediately understood the meaning of the painting. Her chest rose and fell quickly because of anger, and she said angrily, "Does Chen Lin want to threaten me? ”

Ling Ying said: "Chen Lin asked me to convey to you that this painting is only depicting the private affairs between him and Her Majesty the Empress, only you will understand!" ”

Shui Daiyin is so smart, she knows that Chen Lin is hinting to herself, if she doesn't agree to his conditions, he will shake out the secret between himself and him to everyone, Shui Daiyin is extremely angry, she walked back and forth a few steps, everyone can see her anger and uneasiness at the moment, although they have a strong curiosity about the letter, but no one dares to go up and peek.

Shui Daiyin quickly made up her mind in a short period of time, her expression regained her calmness and composure, and she said slowly: "I can give the soldiers of Cloud City a way to live, but I have one condition......"

Before she could say her conditions, Ling Ying preemptively said: "Chen Lin said that as long as the Empress promises to give the soldiers and people of Cloud Piercing City a way to live, he is willing to stay in Cloud Piercing City with Miss Mo to wait for Her Majesty the Empress's arrival!" ”

What Shui Daiyin wanted to say was to want Chen Lin and Mo Wuxi's lives, but she didn't expect Chen Lin to know her so deeply, and she had an indescribable complicated feeling while being angry. She waved her hand a little tiredly and said, "You go, tell Chen Lin, I promise his conditions!" ”

Ling Ying was overjoyed in his heart, Chen Lin was really extraordinary, he forced the Empress of the Sea Clan to change her mind with just one letter, which showed that he really knew Shui Daiyin very well.

After Ling Ying left, Huiyun Lisi and Zhuang Feiyi didn't dare to speak, and they could both see that the empress was in an extremely bad mood at this time.

"Tell me what you think!" Shui Daiyin broke the silence.

Hui Yun Lisi and Zhuang Feiyi glanced at each other, and Zhuang Feiyi took the lead in speaking: "Your Majesty's move is really a wise move, as Ling Ying said, if we are determined to block their back road, we will only force the forces of Cloud Piercing City to fight to the death, even if we can win, the losses will be heavy." ”

Shui Daiyin said coldly: "I don't know how much you have received from them, I always speak to them today!" ”

Zhuang Feiyi was so frightened that he hurriedly knelt on the ground: "Your Majesty, the courtier's loyalty to you can be ......."

"Alright, alright!" Shui Daiyin waved her hand impatiently, turned to Huiyun Lisi and said, "But if I let them live, it will be equivalent to being an enemy of the Xuanwu Kingdom." ”

Hui Yun Lisi said: "The minister doesn't think so, the Xuanwu Kingdom is now in civil strife, and they don't dare to clash with us head-on, not to mention, after we occupy the Cloud Piercing City, we can use the danger of the mountains in the Cloud Piercing City to stifle the momentum of the expansion of the forces west of the mainland to the Void Sea, and letting go of Xuanbo is equivalent to letting the entire Xuanwu Kingdom continue to be torn apart, although she is not too strong, she is the real monarch recognized by many subjects of the Xuanwu Kingdom, in the long run, this may not be a good thing." ”

A knowing smile appeared on Shui Daiyin's pretty face, Hui Yun Lisi's wisdom was not under Mo Wuxi, but she immediately thought that Chen Lin asked people to negotiate with her, and she could understand herself so well, it must be Mo Wuxian who helped her, Fang's heart was suddenly full of hatred, this time she would not let go of Chen Lin and Mo Wuxian no matter what.

Ling Ying told Chen Lin Shui Daiyin's reply as soon as possible, Chen Lin and Mo Wuxian smiled at each other, they had long expected that Shui Daiyin had no reason to refuse.

Mo Wuxian said softly: "The empress has a big heart, she will definitely consider the overall situation, I believe she will not easily involve her soldiers in this tragic war." ”

Chen Lin sighed: "You still know her!" ”

Mo Wuxian's pretty face turned crimson, she misunderstood what Chen Lin meant, and said softly: "Actually, you know her very well. She remembered the scroll drawn by Chen Lin herself, and said that she had been confused for a long time in her heart: "What did you draw on that painting?" ”

Chen Lin smiled and said: "The secret of heaven must not be revealed. ”

Mo Wuxian still wanted to ask, but when General Fina came to visit, she had to dispel the idea of asking to the end.

Fina and Mo Wuxian have a good impression of each other through several contacts, of course, this is related to the fact that both of them like Chen Lin, and they must consider getting closer to each other for Chen Lin.

Chen Lin relayed the news brought by Ling Ying, and Fina was pleasantly surprised: "This is the best, since Shui Daiyin promised us a way out, we can avoid losses to the greatest extent, but ...... Her Majesty may not be willing to give up Cloud City. ”

Chen Lin sighed and said, "I'm also worried about this, the last time I talked to her, I found that she had changed a lot." ”

Mo Wuxian smiled and said: "According to what you said, Princess Xuanbo is only worried about the people of Cloud Piercing City, and now handing over Cloud Piercing City in exchange for the safety of the people and soldiers is undoubtedly the best ending, what reason does she have to object?" ”

Fina said: "Even if the queen agrees, Duke Hei Jain may not agree." In his heart, he regarded Cloud Piercing City as a part of his life, and wanted him to give the city away, but he was afraid that it would not be so easy. ”

Chen Lin ignored Hei Jayne, the true master of Cloud Piercing City, from the beginning, and only after hearing Fina's words did he begin to realize that he might have made a big mistake. He was silent for a long time before he said, "Don't tell anyone about the results of my negotiation with Shui Daiyin for the time being, I want to go and meet Duke Hei Jain first." ”

Fina sighed softly and said, "I'll go with you." ”

After Hei Jain gave his duke's palace to Princess Xuanbo, he has been living in the annex in the west city of Cloud Piercing City, which was originally his summer retreat, built on the mountainside, and the sea view not far away from the courtyard can be seen from the courtyard, although it is much smaller than the original Duke's Palace, it is also elegant and pure, but during this time, Hei Jain is not in the mood to enjoy any purity, most of the time he is worried about the battle situation in Cloud Piercing City.
