Chapter 216: Chapter 214: Never a Killjoy_1

“Even if General Ruobai didn’t mind, I, the Crown Prince, have to mind.” The Crown Prince’s face darkened as he looked at the dazzling and beautiful Li Tianfu, not buying her charms at all.

Li Tianfu was stunned, her eyes wide as she stared at the Crown Prince of the Jin Kingdom. She never expected him to stand up for Bai Qingyan! _{freewebnσvel.cøm}

She bit her lower lip, tears welling up in her eyes as she defiantly stared at Bai Qingyan. “Could it be that the Crown Prince of Jin is also under this God of Slaughter’s…”

“Princess!” Li Zhijie hurriedly interrupted, preventing her from finishing the phrase. “The princess had some wine in the carriage earlier. Could she be drunk?!”

The Crown Prince of Jin stepping in changed the entire nature of the situation. If Li Tianfu continued speaking, it could ruin the negotiations between the two countries.

With the Empress just having ascended the throne and the Xiliang court still unstable, any reckless words from Li Tianfu could reignite the war. There were those in Xiliang waiting to exploit any chaos.

“Xiliang gathered Nanyan and boasted of a million-strong army to invade my Jin Kingdom. Having lost, you now accuse us of killing your surrendering soldiers. Xiliang truly has… no shame!” Bai Qingyan spoke lightly, with a hint of a calm smile in her eyes. “We, the Jin Army, were fifty thousand strong, while you, Xiliang, sent over ten times that number to Wengshan. If we didn’t kill your soldiers, should we have just waited for them to kill us instead? Or does the Xiliang Princess mean that any country Xiliang wishes to destroy should extend their necks for slaughter, or they lose all honor and integrity? Xiliang must still be dreaming… thinking themselves rulers of the world. Who gave Xiliang such face? Was it you, Princess?”

“You!” Li Tianfu stood up abruptly, her chest heaving with anger. “How dare you be so rude!”

“The one who was rude first was the Xiliang Princess herself!” Bai Qingyan’s deep eyes were steady as a calm lake. “A defeated nation’s princess coming for a marriage alliance, we give you courtesy… you are a princess. Without it… you are nothing! If you come to sue for peace, show the humility of a supplicant. Do not put on airs before the victor. The weak… do not have that privilege! Does the Princess still need someone else to teach her such simple reasoning?”

Li Tianfu was burning with rage and looked aside as if wanting to draw her sword to cut down Bai Qingyan, but Li Zhijie held her wrist firmly.

Even though Li Zhijie admired Bai Qingyan’s beauty, in these peace talks, Bai Qingyan was insulting Xiliang. How could he stand by and watch his homeland be humiliated?! The Princess’s personal dignity might be trivial, but the dignity of the nation could not be insulted!

Li Zhijie’s face turned a mixture of blue and white, his usual smile vanished. He gazed deeply at Bai Qingyan but addressed the Crown Prince: “Your Highness, although our Princess was initially at fault, General Bai’s words excessively humiliate Xiliang. It seems General Bai enjoys slaughter and does not wish for peace!”
