C81 There Was Something Fishy about This

After reaching an agreement with Grand Master Xu Yi, the group moved towards the inner palace.

Chu Tian and the others sat in the Grand Preceptor's carriage. The interior of the carriage was very spacious and comfortable.

"Third Prince, I have something I want to ask you. What do you think about the princess's marriage if you abandon your relationship?" Xu Yi suddenly spoke from within the carriage.

Qing Kangping's expression became serious when he heard this. Qing Lianer's eyes also fell on her brother.

"Grand Preceptor, forgive me for being blunt. This marriage might bring great benefits to our Cloud Rising Country. The other party is the prince of Field Sea Country. Field Sea Country is located in the south of us. Although their national strength isn't as powerful as the Cloud Rising Country, there are still some outstanding aspects to it. That was their harvest of grains. The water and soil in Field Sea Country were excellent. That's why their harvest of grains is five times more than ours. "

"If both parties are on good terms, then we will be able to buy food from Field Sea Country. Let's go! The most important thing in war is the source of grain. If we can have five times the amount of grain as our support, then we will be able to buy grain from the ___! In that case, our Cloud Rising Country will definitely increase our chances of winning this war."

Qing Kangping analyzed this marriage one by one. Xu Yi nodded his head in satisfaction at the latter's analysis. Qing Lianer felt even more worried. As a princess, she could also understand it. If she could bring such benefits to the empire, then there was no way she could reject this marriage. Even if she opposed it, it would be useless.

"Since Third Prince understands this matter so well, is it really because of this brotherly love that he stood up for the princess this time?" Xu Yi narrowed his eyes and stared at Qing Kangping.

Facing Grand Master Xu Yi's gaze, Qing Kangping didn't try to avoid it. Qing Lianer also looked at Qing Kangping. She also wanted to know why her brother had helped her so much.

"It is indeed as I said just now. If we can be on good terms with Field Sea Country... It will be very beneficial to Cloud Rising Country, but this is just what we think on the surface. In fact, is this marriage alliance good? Or is this prince of the Field Sea Country harboring evil intentions? " Qing Kangping said.

"Oh, why would the Third Prince say that? Is there any evidence?" Grand Master Xu Yi also looked at Qing Kangping in a somewhat surprised manner and asked.

"Field Sea Country has become famous because of his harvest of five valleys. It is related to many countries. Hence, it can be said that it does not have to worry about food and clothing. There is no one who is a threat to it. However, I have never seen Field Sea Country showing any good intentions to our country. This sudden marriage is indeed puzzling. " Qing Kangping said.

Xu Yi also looked at Qing Kangping, but he did not interrupt the latter's words. Clearly, he was prepared to let Qing Kangping continue speaking. Chu Tian was also prepared to listen to Qing Kangping's words. If war really broke out, he had to make preparations as soon as possible. Although the war might not be a big deal to him, he still had the Chu family behind him. Here. He had to think for the Chu family.

"Also, the Field Sea Country is making friends everywhere. Logically speaking, if there isn't anything to maintain the common hatred of everyone, then... An alliance like this is also impossible to succeed. I have investigated the people who are on good terms with the Field Sea Country. Almost all of them are enemies with my Cloud Rising Country. If that's the case, it would be suspicious for him to make friends with the Cloud Rising Country. "

"As for the last point, the reputation of the prince of Cloud Rising Country is not good. I heard that he is dissolute and has a hundred wives and concubines. If the imperial sister marries him, she will definitely be neglected."

After listening to Qing Kangping's analysis, Xu Yi's eyes flashed. He now had some respect for Qing Kangping.

"According to the Third Prince, you said that the prince of Field Sea Country is here to welcome the bride. What do you think is his intention?" Xu Yi said.

"In my opinion, he probably wants to take my sister away as a hostage on the surface, but in fact, I'm afraid that he has other intentions. As for what he wants, it's not something I can guess." Qing Kangping said.

"Third Prince is indeed a genius. He was able to see through this opponent's trick." Xu Yi said.

"Grand Preceptor, don't make fun of me. I think you agreed to my decision because you wanted to stop me." Qing Kangping said.

Xu Yi stroked his beard and smiled without saying a word. Chu Tian, on the other hand, heard some deeper words. If what Qing Kangping said was true, then the war would soon descend upon Cloud Rising Country. However, the Cloud Rising Country in his previous life was prosperous and prosperous, and wasn't affected by the war. Furthermore, Qing Lianer was also married to a distant country. There must be a reason behind this.

At this time, the carriage had already arrived in front of the Imperial City. However, he was still concerned about the Grand Preceptor's carriage. The guards did not dare to stop it and allowed the carriage to pass by just like that. Even the Crown Prince couldn't do that. This showed how high and mighty Xu Yi's status was.

"Mr. Chu, don't worry. I will make the arrangements when the time comes. You only need to compete with that Prince Fan." Qing Kangping said.

At this moment, the carriage stopped. Everyone in the carriage also came out. The reason why the carriage stopped was because they were currently in the Imperial Reading Room. It was also the place where the Emperor dealt with official matters.

"Follow me." Xu Yi said.

The only one who could enter and exit freely in the Imperial Reading Room without being informed was the latter. The four of them smoothly entered the Imperial Reading Room.

Xu Yi only needed to show his token to pass through all the guards, although on the surface, there were very few guards in the Imperial Reading Room.

However, the person here was the Son of Heaven. How could he be so careless? Chu Tian could already sense some concealed aura in the dark. They were the safest insurance to protect the Emperor.

"This official, Xu Yi, requests an audience!" Xu Yi bowed slightly in front of the study.

"Come in!"

After which, a vigorous voice sounded from within the room. Chu Tian was also quite curious. He had never seen the emperor of Cloud Rising Country before. Now, he could finally see the true face of the latter.

Hence, Xu Yi led the way and pushed open the door of the study. Chu Tian and the rest followed closely behind the latter. When they entered the study, Chu Tian could feel a powerful aura coming towards him.

This aura pressure was different from what Xu Yi felt. He could feel a natural aura coming from Xu Yi's body. However, he could feel the aura coming from Chu Tian in front of him. It was a kind of domineering aura that made him feel like he was the only one under the heavens. This was the might of a king.

Chu Tian lowered his head and did not look at the latter directly. It was not because he was afraid of this majesty, but because if he looked at the latter directly, he was afraid that it would attract the latter's attention.

"Xu Yi, you have rarely come over recently. Why are you so free today?"

At this moment, after the latter spoke, everyone raised their heads. In front of the desk in front of them, a middle-aged man wearing a five-clawed golden dragon robe was sitting on it.

Although his appearance wasn't outstanding, the deterrent force in his eyes was quite oppressive. Chu Tian could even vaguely see the majestic fate on the latter's body. With just a glance, he knew that this person must be a formidable character.

"This official is afraid that coming often will delay the Emperor's affairs. Today, I have come to accept the Third Prince's invitation. I wish to discuss the Princess's marriage in detail." Xu Yi said.

The middle-aged man glanced at Qing Kangping and then turned to Chu Tian. After all, he recognized all the other people present, but this was the first time he had seen Chu Tian.

"This is really rare. If that's the case, I would like to hear what the Grand Preceptor and Kangping want to hear." The middle-aged man stopped writing after hearing Xu Yi's words.

It could be seen that he attached great importance to this matter. At this moment, Qing Kangping also slightly clenched his hand. His words and actions this time would determine his impression of his father, so it was extremely important. Naturally, he wouldn't dare to be careless.
