Chapter 156: The Queen summons

Baizhan didn't go to see Jia Baili, first of all, he felt that it was unnecessary, and he was passive when he went.

Second, he also wanted to see what Jia Baili's reaction was.

There was no movement for a few days, but the people of the Zhuge family entered the palace several times, and they saw that Jia Baili was going to exert pressure. However, Dawn is demarcating the borders, speaking of which, it is the kind of existence that uncles don't love and grandmothers don't love, but because of the special role played by Vivian, the royal family immediately gave up Dawn, which is really not so easy for the Cullinan Empire.

In the palace, Jia Baili sat alone in front of the window.

The attendant walked in respectfully with her head bowed, and she was very careful with every step she took in the room, as if she were afraid of making too much noise. The attendant stood in front of Jia Baili and whispered, "Your Majesty, the people of the Shang Alliance have all returned, and I heard that they are all very happy. ”

Jia Baili looked at the scenery outside, and she said a little haggardly: "Of course I know that they are happy, once we have a rift with Baizhan, they will have a place to squeeze the benefits between us and Dawn." How could they be unhappy? They wish I had ordered to stop supporting Dawn. ”

"Those businessmen only know the interests and do not care about the country."

"They don't care about the country? Hehe, it's not that they don't care, it's that they don't have a chance relationship. The Cullinan Empire is controlled by the aristocracy, and we can only find a way to balance it back and forth, they are tired of our tricks. Just pretend not to see everything when you see it, I have no doubt at all that Daybreak will become an unusually powerful force if it develops on its own. ”

"But there should only be one queen on the Central Continent, and that is Your Majesty."

"Yes, the Central Continent should only have one queen, but they are only independent and not kings, what can you do with her? The queen is just a title, and the power that is truly in control is the key. Vivien doesn't have anything, she only has a hundred battles, and I'm not like that......"

The waiter has been following Jia Baili all year round, and her thoughts are already clear to her in just a few words. The attendant bowed respectfully and whispered, "Your Majesty has already made a decision. ”

"Yes, Vivien can't put it down, but I can. More than the possibility of the future, I hope that the Cullinan Empire can stand firmly in the position of a strong country, a position that will never be shaken. ”

"Do you need me to pass Vivien into the palace?"

"Tomorrow, let's call her to come with Baizhan tomorrow!" Jia Baili sighed softly, and the attendant cautiously withdrew. Jia Baili sat silently in front of the window alone, feeling so lonely and helpless......

Every decision she makes is related to the fortunes of the country, and everything she does is not for herself, but for the country.

When the news was sent to Vivian, both Vivian and Baizhan knew that there was finally going to be a showdown, and the queen must have made her choice. Who she will choose, Baizhan doesn't have to think about it to know what's going on. When I entered the royal capital by car, it was still drizzling. The gray sky is dripping and the next one is not stopping. After Baizhan got out of the car, Vivian's face was not good-looking, and Baizhan quietly took her hand and said, "No matter what, we will face it together." ”

"yes, I know." Vivien nodded.

Bai Zhan and Vivien walked into the imperial city and entered Jia Baili's special living room. As soon as she entered the living room, Jia Baili sat in the room drinking tea, she was not as enthusiastic as in the past, but said lukewarmly: "You are here." ”

Vivien and Baizhan stood in front of her, both of them just saluting silently and saying nothing.

When he saw Jia Baili, Bai Zhan already knew the other party's decision.

Jia Baili put down the teacup, she looked at Vivien and said, "I guess you already know what I mean by calling you here, right?" ”

"Your Majesty's decision, how can we possibly understand it?" Vivien said respectfully with her head down.

Jia Baili sighed, and she said softly: "The people from the Zhuge family are here, and they have told me several times about your marriage with the prince, and I want to hear your opinion on this matter." ”

"It's been said a long time ago, is it necessary for Your Majesty to ask so?" Vivien stood up straight, and she looked at Jia Baili with confidence. A leader's posture jumped on her face, Vivien knew what Jia Baili wanted to say, but her heart was like a rock, and what she had already decided would not change in any way. As Hyakjan said to her, Hyakjan couldn't live without her. And why can't she lose a hundred battles?

"Vivianqing, do you know what kind of disaster you will bring to the empire if you are so willful?" Jia Baili asked with a cold face.

Vivien said calmly as always: "I don't think my personal marriage problem will bring any problems to the empire, I am just an ordinary lord, not a queen. Besides, it is enough for the queen of the Cullinan Empire to have you. Am I right, Your Majesty? ”

Jia Baili was not angry, her tone softened a little, and said in a consultative tone: "Vivian Qing, you should understand. How big is the energy of the Zhuge family, this time they will not give up until they achieve their goal. ”

"Your Majesty, Dawn is currently executing a battle plan, do you think the energy of the Zhuge family can make the giants retreat? So that they never attack us? If the energy of the Zhuge family is so great, why don't you talk about the giants being wiped out in one fell swoop, if I can, I am willing to make this sacrifice. But now, right at the front, my brethren are throwing their heads and spilling their blood, and you tell me to take into account the ideas of some nobles? For the sake of an idler, for the sake of a person who has a little desire for himself, give up fighting against giants? Your Majesty, you are not afraid of the cold hearts of the front-line soldiers, I am afraid! I can never dream of seeing those dead brothers!! Blood all over the ground, countless stumps, the nobility is nothing to me. I don't have to worry about anything that isn't worth mentioning. Your Majesty, the giants didn't eat me, do they want me to be slaughtered in the hands of a bunch of incompetent waste? I'm not convinced! Vivien's hand was on her heart, and her excitement was palpable.

Although the words were reckless, the queen did not have any words to refute.

Daring? Arrogant? Defiant?

For the sake of the country...... Is it power or is it really for the country?

"What about you? Don't say something? Jia Baili looked at Bai Zhan and asked with a not very good face.

Bai Zhan raised his head and looked at Jia Baili and said: "Her words represent my words, for me, the Zhuge family, the princes, are just a passing cloud." I don't think they're going to pose any threat to me, on the contrary. In my opinion. It was just some farce, and we understood that His Majesty was under great pressure, so we were fully prepared for it. I would like to hand it over to Changning Village. Since then, the nobles who have withdrawn from the Cullinan Empire have given up all their status and prestige in the Cullinan. I'm going to do my best to help Vivian-sama. ”

It was handed over to Changning Village and the fief was returned. What does this thing represent, Baizhan can understand it without saying anything.

From this moment on, Jia Baili could feel that the relationship between her and Bai Zhan would stop there, and the only thing left was the relationship of interests. Jia Baili will not completely tear her face, she needs the weapons provided by Baizhan, and she needs the support of Dawn even more. But she also understands that Baizhan will not shrink the agreed things for the sake of breaking dawn, so she can't easily break the previous agreement.

But when the hundred battles are returned to Changning Village, then the next battle in the court will continue endlessly. And Baizhan completely jumped out of this whirlpool, with a corner of dawn. Although the current dawn is very passive, if he can get through it, he must be able to get through it, but can he get through it...... That's an unknown.

"Do you really want to return Changning?"

Bai Zhan arched his hand and said: "Changning has lost its meaning to me, and then our contact points over there will all be evacuated." ”

"Are you going to cut ties with the Empire? Don't forget, no matter what, you are also a feudal state of the Cullinan Empire, not an independent state. "It's impossible for Jia Baili to let go, if she completely lets go and turns her face, her loss will really be too great.

"Daybreak is not in the Cullinan Empire, Your Majesty." Baizhan calmly reminded.

The demarcation of the national border, that is just a play, in order to give yourself a long face, the so-called demarcation of the national border is a pseudo-agreement before the countries have not torn their faces, only the actual control of the border is the real national border, and the area controlled by the dawn now can be regarded as an independent existence. Because all the equipment configuration there is dawn of its own, the army, the officials, the management system. It is completely different from the Cullinan Empire.

Once Dawn has gained a firm foothold, no country is qualified to make irresponsible remarks about him, not to mention that this is a blank check promised by Jia Baili back then.

Jia Baili couldn't help but smile, and she said softly, "I forgot about this, but so what? Do you want to turn against me? ”

Bai Zhan looked at the Jia Baili Queen Ping handed over to you and said, "It depends on Your Majesty's decision. ”

"Okay, I accept your decision, and I'll take it back." After all, Jia Baili is the queen, a king's demeanor, but the hundred battles are even more aura, and there is a faint sense of competition.

Bai Zhan looked at Jia Baili and asked, "Since Your Majesty has made a decision, then the matter of dividing us must also have been decided." ”

"It's business as usual, as long as you fulfill your promises, all the agreements we have reached before will take effect. However, from now on, the state will no longer provide you with a penny, nor will it provide you with a single soldier, and the rear will stop all supplies to you. The other thing is the question of the students, you will not enjoy the right to recommend. Your supplies will also be limited, and you will have to re-obtain them through trade channels or other channels, and the Cullinan will completely cease all support for Daybreak. ”

Baizhan replied calmly: "I know, from now on...... I dropped out of school. If those renovated academies are willing to give up and stay, I won't stop them. Of course, if they are willing to go with me, they also hope that His Majesty will not stop them. ”

"Okay, I won't stop them, but only in the transformation class."

Bai Zhan saluted respectfully: "Thank you, Your Majesty, I will write down this favor." ”

Jia Baili looked at Bai Zhan and said: "From today on, you will be an independent fief, we will be like Nanhuo and the High Heaven Empire, I will give you all the power, you can apply for the Yanshi Hall to be stationed, and apply for the Yanwu Hall to be stationed." I will not stand in the way, and I will provide you with proof. As for your affairs, please settle them on your own, and the royal family will not ask about them anymore. ”

Baizhan and Vivien surrendered at the same time, and everyone knew in their hearts, since they were separated, then they would settle accounts with their brothers. All cooperation will be at a new starting point, in order not to tear their faces, Baizhan and Jia Baili have decided to abide by the past agreement. All past promises have been fulfilled. But if we want to cooperate in the future, we will need more restrictions and negotiations.

Watching Baizhan and Vivien leave, Sarayan slowly walked out of the door of the inner room. He said with a heavy expression: "Your Majesty, maybe you have made an unwise decision. ”

"Maybe, but now it's the best decision for me, and I'm more concerned about the ...... than I want to."

"But they may no longer be hopeful, but reality...... I always feel that this kid is too confident, it's not a feeling of arrogance, but he really has confidence. They have hole cards, which means that he is ready for everything, including the possibility of tearing his face. ”
