Chapter 64: Empire and War

Ao Xuehua didn't expect that her original appearance would cause Ye Qing to have such an association, but Her Royal Highness the princess could afford to put it down, and after understanding what Ye Qing was thinking, she didn't stay too long on this topic, but lowered her head and smiled self-deprecatingly. [with _ dream]ā

She lowered her head, her black hair hanging down into the milky white spring water, through which she could faintly see the delicate white bulge on the breasts of this now beautiful match, and the delicate pink faintly visible at the tip.

This woman who usually has the same prestige in Yeye Academy, the most noble eldest daughter of the emperor in the Oss Empire, if she is not willing, then no one in the world can see her appearance.

But Ye Qing really saw it, even if she was the same woman.

The corners of Ao Xuehua's mouth were curled with mockery, and she asked softly, "Is it beautiful?" ”

Ye Qing nodded silently.

In this continent, there have long been rumors that Princess Dieying, who is now the number one beauty in the world, but Ye Qing, who has known Ao Xuehua for several years, has never thought so.

Now it seems that it is not an exaggeration of rumors, but that this Princess Dieying has never shown the beauty that she belongs to a woman, and even said that she is deliberately covering up the beauty that originally belonged to her.

It's just that her cover-up method is too clever, not deliberately ugly, but with another impression and style, completely covering the beauty she once had.

"I don't know if I told you that my least favorite thing in this world is butterflies." Ao Xuehua said in a low voice.

Her title is Princess Dieying.

"With the beauty of the world and no means to protect itself, such a creature is born with the only value of being made into a specimen for people to admire, and it does not even have the freedom to sip muddy water in the dirt."

She didn't say why she chose this way, but Ye Qing had already read her thoughts from her answer.

Then Ao Xuehua slowly raised her head, the princess in the bath raised her face in the mist of water and moisture was proud and strong to the extreme, so even if she didn't have the makeup that she usually used to cover up and mislead, but that awe-inspiring and proud look like a sword made Ye Qing contact the usual president of the Burial Xue for the first time.

"So, I became me."

The person you thought of as someone who could dominate the world just by relying on beauty was not me.

Ye Qing nodded wordlessly.

It was only half an hour of conversation, and it gave her a different understanding of Her Royal Highness the princess, who was already extremely close in the past, so she nodded extra hard this time.

"If I'm not mistaken, you called me this time for the blood of Qingluan." Ao Xuehua said lightly.

Ye Qing was not surprised that Ao Xuehua would know this, just as Ye Luan would be sure that Mo Xiaojing would know about it, behind Ao Xuehua was the intelligence of the entire Ostonian Empire

Internet, so that the news that is widely circulated among the top level will definitely know about it.

After knowing this, it was not surprising to guess that Ye Qing would come to her.

After all, she was the most powerful and reliable of the power that Ye Qing had mastered.

Ye Qing nodded calmly: "Yes." ”

"The Ottoid Empire naturally doesn't want to see this marriage between you and Ster, but how to stop this marriage, the Empire has its own considerations."

"If you risk making enemies with Lan Ye to stop it at all costs, then it is undoubtedly a better choice to choose to show goodwill to Ster, and use a solid alliance to avoid the threat of war, after all, there is no substantial territorial transfer between Oss and Ster."

Ao Xuehua calmly analyzed this crisis from the perspective of the Oss Empire, the marriage between the Lanye Empire and the Ster Empire at the royal level was naturally something they did not want to see, because the Oss Empire was born unable to complete this level of marriage, and all members of the Oss family must exchange bloodlines with the Nihuang Clan in order to give birth to healthy enough offspring.

However, as a foreign country, forcibly interfering in the internal affairs of the other two empires, even if this marriage is really abandoned because of the threat and protest of the Ottoid Empire, then the Lanye Empire, which is deeply threatened by the most direct war threat of the Aster Empire, will undoubtedly hate the Auss Empire as an enemy, even if they have maintained quite good royal ties with each other for a long time due to the old friendship between the founding emperors.

However, befriending the Empire and exchanging the alliance for each other's scarce resources to balance the diplomatic imbalance caused by this incident was a less costly and less side-effect response for the Ottoid Empire.

In other words, on the continent today, both the Ottos and the Lanye Empire are content with their current territory, and are jealous of the strength of the other two countries, and they do not have enough war needs at home to start a war that will change the pattern of the entire continent.

There will be no war when the supreme royal family has no intentions, when there is no civil conflict, when there is no need for war and change in the social base to redistribute resources.

This is an obvious fact.

But - the Empire is different.

He is reassembling a mighty army that once swept the world, his king is young and warlike, and he has shown almost no surprise in his military talent in constant domestic conquests, and his foreign wars have a great pretext for war to regain his land.

Even if this excuse will not be accepted by the other two countries, because theoretically, the vast majority of the territory of the two empires is the land of the Turt Empire, even if the rule he established in these lands is only a few decades.

Domestically, however, it is a pretext for war that is not only appropriate, but will also be embraced by the people.

This is the fundamental reason why Qingli acted so unscrupulously in the fourth spring.

Everyone knew that the Empire under his rule was a great threat, but without enough strength, no one would want to fight against the dangers that were not yet coming.

Not to mention the Ossian Empire, which does not border with Sturt, even if the Lanye Empire had the strongest marshal and army in the world at that time at the beginning of the founding of the country, in the face of Sturt, who was still in the midst of civil strife and did not have a strong emperor, he did not choose to drive straight in, but occupied Yanshi City to gain a head start in possible future wars.

Don't say that Emperor Yuantai cherishes his soldiers, doesn't want to lose his life, and doesn't want to invade other countries, but because even Lan Ye at that time was not sure that he could defeat the Sturt Empire that was actually established for the Xiguang clan.

So the strongest Lan Ye at that time was not sure, and now that the Guards Legion has withered, and the Lan Ye Empire, which has not experienced a war in a hundred years, is sure that the Apocalypse Emperor who is rising step by step, suppressing all domestic opponents with an iron fist, since the death of the original emperor, is it the first emperor of the Apocalypse who has completely mastered the Blazing Flame Legion and reunited the once scattered Sturt Empire step by step?

What's more, he also has a team in his hand that has experienced a series of bloody battles in China, fought in blood and fire, and has won successive victories with strong morale and fierce spirit.

As far as the current continent is concerned, there is no second powerful army composed of such a large and elite veterans of a hundred battles.

Not to mention that this Emperor of the Apocalypse has always declared that he has never planned to fight a foreign war, even if he openly uses war as a bargaining chip to threaten the two empires to make concessions, the two empires do not have the confidence to respond to the Emperor of the Apocalypse with war.

Since you want war, give you war.

Such passionate rhetoric will always exist only in the imagination.

For the two empires, as long as the Emperor of the Apocalypse has not really started the war, then they will definitely not take the initiative to stimulate this lion who is slowly waking up from his slumber.

As a price, it is to constantly mobilize and prepare for war, and use the equal military power to curb the greedy ambitions of the emperor, who is not yet crazy.

This is also what the Lanye Empire has been doing.

This is something that Ye Qing and Ao Xuehua both know, and Ao Xuehua repeats this matter to confirm.

Ye Qing's mind.

Since the marriage was a decision in the national interest, and the Oss Empire had countermeasures to cushion the adverse effects of this incident, why did Ye Qing stop this matter.

And what will she use to convince the Ostonian Empire to stand behind her and support her?

In this matter, personal friendship does not mean anything.

This is different from Ren Qiuke, Ye Qing is in the same camp as him, so he can rely on his own favor to let him help him to a certain extent.

But for Ao Xuehua, when standing in the perspective of national interests, all friendships are no match for cold interests and harms.

This is also a thorn in the thorn between her and Ye Qing that has never been said but knows it.

Today, this thorn finally divided in front of the two princesses so vividly, stabbing each other's hearts.
