ord class, Li Chen now feels powerless."We are now approaching Tongzhou City. Let's go in and have a look."For now, put your mind at ease, Li Chen said to Su Jinpa."Hmm."Su Jinpa smiled at Li Chen, th...Chapter 1734: Wishing for a Great Victory in the Upcoming War

Even if Fucha Huanzhen were the most intelligent person, it would be impossible for him to possess Li Chen's knowledge that surpassed this era by thousands of years.

As for economic and trade wars, he had never even heard of them.

I could never have dreamed that there was a way to control a country completely through resources and the economy.

So, in Fucha Huanzhen's view at this time, the cooperative plan was entirely feasible and greatly beneficial to the Jin Kingdom.

As for why Qin acted this way, it's quite simple. Qin was unable to deal with Liao on its own and needed a reliable ally to face them. And that ally could only be Jin.

Although he knew the benefits were enormous, Fucha Huan truly couldn't agree to it.

It's because of insufficient status.

Cooperation between nations has always been a matter between emperors and emperors. As Li Chen, at the very least, a prince of the Jin Dynasty should be involved, if not even direct dialogue with the monarch of the Jin Dynasty, which would also be reasonable.

But Fucha Huanzhen clearly wasn't qualified for this.

"Your Highness, this matter is of great consequence. I am not authorized to make such a decision. I must report back to the capital and await the Emperor's orders."

Li Chen said with understanding, "It's alright. Today, the imperial palace is just putting forward a general idea and outlining the basic framework. For such a large-scale cooperation, even the intention needs to be confirmed three or five times. Afterwards, envoys will inevitably be dispatched to conduct detailed communication and agreements. Only then will the treaty be signed. You can inform your country's monarch of this. This palace has plenty of time to slowly negotiate with you."

Fucha Huanzhen smiled and took the initiative to raise her wine glass, saying: “Then, I toast His Royal Highness the Crown Prince.”

"Best regards and looking forward to a fruitful collaboration."

Li Chen also raised his glass and gently touched it to Fu Cha Huanzhen's.

They drained their glasses in one gulp and smiled at each other.

This smile, compared to the last one, carried more sincerity and warmth, with fewer traces of formality.

As the conversation went on, Prince Ning returned.

His face was extremely grim.

Because of this trip out, the little eunuch truly followed him step by step, leaving him with no space to do anything.

However, King Ning finally got some slightly better news: Wu Yong had left Suiyang County.

At this time, when Wu Yong left, it was certainly for his own business.

As for Wu Yong, King Ning did not pay much attention to him because Wu Yong was not intelligent enough nor did he have the charisma and prestige to rally people.

People who are too intelligent may have their own ideas when doing things, and they cannot be entrusted with important tasks. They also need to be carefully watched.

On the other hand, Wu Yong is like a weapon without his own thoughts, striking wherever he is told, which makes people feel very at ease.

Now, the only hope for King Ning is that Wu Yong can deliver the message to Yelü Shenxuan as soon as possible. That way, there might still be a glimmer of hope.

"Looking at Wang Shu's expression, he doesn't seem too happy."

Li Chen said with a smile that wasn't quite a smile, "Perhaps you didn't release it enough just now"

King Ning took a deep breath. He wasn't the kind of person who couldn't let go. Right now, the situation was what it was. King Ning might as well give up. He said loudly, "Releasing them is indeed quick and painless, but this eunuch follows closely behind every step. I presume whoever comes, having a eunuch standing behind them, would feel uncomfortable."

Li Chen laughed and said, "Uncle Wang, this is for your own good. Don't dwell on the small details. Let's have two more drinks and toast to our victory!"

King Ning raised his cup and clinked it with Li Chen's, smiling, "Indeed. To our great victory in the upcoming battle!"ates of Yan and Cloud are not only a permanent disgrace to the Great Qin, but also a shame to the Jin.For the Qin Dynasty, to have lost sixteen states' worth of land was a humiliation so profound that...
