Chapter 5421 Difficulties
"However, my personal advice is to put your personal hatred aside. Have you ever heard of this saying that those who achieve great things do not care about trivial matters?"
The owner of the red eyes said calmly, his tone full of casualness.
From his words, it was obvious that he didn't care what choice the middle-aged man with white hair would make.
I just picked out the most convenient and quickest solution for him.
"I see!"
The white-haired middle-aged man tried his best to suppress his anger, thinking that his plan had now reached the final step, and he really didn't want to waste years of preparation because of such a small matter.
After taking a deep breath, the white-haired middle-aged man put his cloak back on and sat back down.
"You said someone sneaked into the Empire? Then I think I know who did it."
"Don't worry, I will give you a perfect answer."
"Also, I need a batch of weapons, which I will still send to the Snow Country using the old method."
The white-haired middle-aged man had suppressed all his anger, regained his initial calm demeanor, and spoke in a cold voice.
"Of course, as long as you can solve this trouble, I will give you a big gift."
The owner of the red eyes chuckled and agreed casually.
"Oh? What gift?"
The white-haired middle-aged man narrowed his eyes, with a hint of anticipation in his heart.
"How about the head of Qingbei Hou?"
"If you can solve all the problems first, I can hand Qingbei Hou over to you to deal with."
"You don't have to worry about how to do it then, but my promise is enough for you to trust."
The owner of the red eyes spoke lazily.
"Okay, it's a deal."
"I will clear all your troubles, and in return you must hand over Qingbei Hou to me for handling."
The white-haired middle-aged man grinned fiercely, and veins popped out on his clenched fists.
Suddenly, clear footsteps were heard outside the hall, and the expression on the white-haired middle-aged man's face suddenly changed.
The magic power that was transmitted to the jade in his palm was withdrawn, and the light curtain in front of him also disappeared.
A second before the door of the hall was pushed open, the white-haired middle-aged man put the jade back into his arms.
"Elder, the princess is back."
A Snow Clan warrior dressed in beast fur walked into the hall. He half-knelt on the ground and spoke respectfully.
"The princess is back?"
"Apart from the princess, are there any other people accompanying you?"
The white-haired middle-aged man narrowed his eyes, thinking of what the owner of the red eyes in the light curtain had said just now, and asked immediately.
"This, Elder, you will see clearly."
When the princess returned from this trip, she brought back a lot of imperial people, saying that she wanted to make them citizens of the Snow Country.
The Snow Clan warrior pursed his lips, but still lowered his head and replied respectfully.
When the white-haired middle-aged man heard this, a gleam of light suddenly flashed in his eyes, and he thought to himself that he had come at the right time.
What he expected was correct. It was Princess Wan Renxue who caused such a commotion in the empire.
"Wan Ren Xue, Wan Ren Xue, I was going to let you live a few more days happily."
"But now that you've done this, don't blame me."
The white-haired middle-aged man thought secretly in his heart, and then suddenly stood up from his chair.
"Humph, the Council of Elders has already discussed this and strictly forbids this from happening."
"Now Wan Renxue is relying on her status as a princess to do what she wants. Don't blame me for not cherishing our friendship!"
"Not to mention that the clan's treasures were stolen earlier because Wan Renxue, as a princess, failed to take good care of them!"
The white-haired middle-aged man said this menacingly and walked out of the hall.
The Snow Clan warrior who was half-kneeling on the ground secretly said in his heart: "It was you who assigned the person to guard the Snow Clan's secret treasure, but now you want to blame the princess."
However, this Snow Clan warrior only dared to think about it in his heart and did not dare to reveal his true feelings in front of the elders.
After all, at this time in the Snow Country, the Council of Elders is the king.
All this happened because the king of the Snow Country was suddenly assassinated by an assassin not long ago.
Even though the assassin was caught in the end, he refused to reveal who was behind the assassination.
Finally, under the pressure of the Council of Elders, the assassin revealed that he had been bribed by the Empire.
Now the King of the Snow Country is dead, and he has no other princes or princesses except Wan Ren Xue.
In theory, as the princess of the Snow Country, Wan Renxue should have ascended the throne, but she was obstructed by the Council of Elders.
The elders, on the grounds that Wan Renxue was still young, temporarily assumed the king's authority in the form of a parliament.
In addition, Wan Renxue's previous idea of accommodating all races was too advanced and was severely criticized by the Council of Elders.
Now Wan Renxue has secretly brought the imperial people to the Snow Country, and even wants to make these people citizens of the Snow Country.
He could already imagine how the Council of Elders would make things difficult for the princess.
The citizens and warriors of the Snow Tribe are well aware of these things.
But none of them dared to express it openly because they were afraid of the power of the Council of Elders.
Suppressing the thoughts in his mind for the moment, the Snow Clan warrior quickly caught up with the white-haired middle-aged man and headed towards the border of the Snow Country.
At the same time, other elders in the Snow Country also received the news that Wan Renxue had returned with his men, and they all put down their work and rushed to the border.
At the border of the Snow Country, the Ji family’s flying boat was docked on the snowy ground at the border.
The Ji family had been to the Snow Country before and were familiar with the scenery here.
But it was the first time for Lu Shang to leave the imperial city in his life, and even the first time to see snow.
It has never snowed in the Tianyu Empire, and Lu Shang has long been yearning for the snow scene.
At this time, Zhang Yifeng and others were waiting with solemn expressions, but Lu Shang was the only one who just crawled and rolled in the snow without any sense of nervousness at all.
"Lu Shang, come here quickly and stay here quietly!"
Ji Huanying shouted through gritted teeth, staring at Lu Shang who was rolling in the snow, and clenched her fists slightly.
Hearing Ji Huanying's slightly angry shout, Lu Shang, who was rolling in the snow, stood up reluctantly.
Even after leaving the empire, the oppressive feeling that Ji Huanying brought to him still existed.
Reluctantly returning to the team, Lu Shang also waited with everyone else.
Finally, after a while, figures appeared flying from the distant horizon.
Wan Renxue was also staring nervously at the figure landing in the distance, with a little bit of uneasiness in his heart.
"Princess, why did you leave alone for such a long time and now return to the Snow Country with a group of imperial people?"
The white-haired middle-aged man slowly descended from the sky, and asked Wan Renxue solemnly with a frosty face.
"Although I don't know what you are going to do, the Snow Country will never allow foreign invasions!"
"Especially allowing the Imperial man who plotted to assassinate the king to become a citizen of the Snow Country!"
The white-haired middle-aged man held his head high and shouted, his murderous eyes swept across Zhang Yifeng and others one by one.
"Assassinate the king of the Snow Country?"
Zhang Yifeng frowned and grasped the key point in the white-haired middle-aged man's words.
