Prime Minister Bai: "Your Highness, do you have any good ideas?"

Xie Chunchao pondered for a moment and said, "As the saying goes, brave men come out with a lot of money. Our soldiers are not as good as those of the two countries in Shengxia, so why don't we work hard on our weapons?"

"What do you mean, princess?"

"Issue an edict and summon capable people. Regardless of status, whoever can invent powerful weapons can receive a silver reward from the court."

"I don't believe that with the efforts of the whole country, we can't invent better weapons."

Bai Qiusheng's eyes lit up for a moment, but soon dimmed again. He said with some worry, "Will doing this cause trouble among the people?"

"What if someone makes a powerful weapon and causes a riot?"

"Even if he can make powerful weapons, he can't mass-produce them."

"You can't accomplish much with just one weapon."

Xie Chunchao was far more courageous than Bai Qiusheng thought.

"If there is a big riot, we should be happy. It means that Chu will soon have new powerful weapons."

Bai Qiusheng: "I understand, don't worry, princess, I will take care of this matter immediately."

This matter is undoubtedly a huge investment that may not necessarily yield results, and only the current state of Chu has the money to afford it.

Xie Chunchao was sitting in the carriage returning home. Yu Ning outside the carriage whispered, "Princess, Lin... No, the crown prince of Xia Kingdom is here."

Xie Chunchao's eyes that had been closed suddenly opened. She opened the car curtain and took a look from a distance.

The man was tall and tall, with ink-like black hair hanging behind his back. When she looked at him, his eyes also looked over.

The two looked at each other, and the air seemed to freeze for a moment.

Xie Chunchao was the first to come to his senses, looked away, and then lowered the car curtain.

She knew how to treat Rong Shen, and she also knew that what Rong Shen wanted to say today was nothing more than that.

But she was still inexplicably nervous, so she raised her hand to touch her heart.

If Rong Shen was just Lin Jingrong, he might have already entered her heart.

but……

He is not.

Yu Ning helped Xie Chunchao lift the car curtain outside, and then helped Xie Chunchao get out of the carriage.

Rong Shen stepped forward quickly and said, "Your Highness, I have something to say to you."

Xie Chunchao didn't look at him and just said, "Then come in and talk."

Rong Shen breathed a sigh of relief. He was really afraid that Xie Chunchao would not want to see him.

The two of them took their seats, and the maids each served them a cup of hot tea, then quietly left.

The faint scent of sandalwood filled the air around him, and speckled sunlight shone through the hollow carved windows. Xie Chunchao swung his teacup, his eyes falling on the speckled sunlight on the ground.

Rong Shen hesitated again and again, and finally said, "Chaochao, you don't really want to marry the Crown Prince of Sheng, do you?"

This was what Rong Shen was most worried about. Although he knew that with Xie Chunchao's intelligence, he would definitely not do such a thing of digging his own grave, knowing it was one thing, but his mood was another.

Reason told him not to worry, he could still control the situation with ease.

But once you really fall in love, there is no way to be at ease, only endless loss of control.

His once self-righteous wisdom could not help him in the slightest.

Xie Chunchao raised his eyes and looked at him, "Who I marry seems to have nothing to do with Prince Xia."

Rong Shen's hand tightened on the tea cup, and his heart was bleeding with pain.

What he feared most was that Xie Chunchao treated him with such indifference.

He would rather she beat him and scold him than be indifferent and indifferent.

"Chaochao, I know I was wrong." Rong Shen said, "I didn't mean to lie to you at the beginning."

"Listen to my explanation."

Xie Chunchao: "If Prince Xia comes to me today just to say these boring words, then please come back."

Rong Shen was stunned for a few seconds, and then he seemed to understand what Xie Chunchao wanted to hear. If Xie Chunchao really had no intention of him, she could just announce in the main hall that she was going to marry the Crown Prince of Sheng Kingdom without seeing her again.

But she didn't and met him.

Obviously, there was some chat between them.

However, Chaochao didn't seem to want to hear him talking about love.

Then there is only one word of profit left between them...

After Rong Shen thought about it, he said, "Chaochao, what I said in the main hall was definitely not empty words."

"If you marry me, I will lend you half of Xia's army."

"You can do whatever you want with them, they are at your disposal."

Xie Chunchao chuckled and asked, "What if I use them to kill you?"

Rong Shen's eyes were serious, "Then use them to kill me."

Xie Chunchao curled his lips and said, "Let's continue talking about business."

"You marry me. We, Chu and Xia, can attack Sheng State together, and we will definitely defeat Sheng State with the strength of our two countries."

Xie Chunchao blew on the tea in the cup, took a sip, and then said, "How should we distribute it after it is completed?"

"June 4th, Chu Kingdom 6th, Xia Kingdom 4th."

Xie Chunchao: "Seventy-three."

The Xia Kingdom had already suffered a loss in June 4th, and in July 3rd...

Rong Shen didn't even think about it and said, "Okay, just Qi San."

Xie Chunchao looked at him with one hand on his chin and said casually, "You agreed so quickly, are you lying to me?"

"I swear I will never break my promise."

"Forget it." Xie Chunchao said, "I never believe in swearing."

Oaths are only useful for the present moment.

After time has passed, who will remember the oath once sworn?

Even if it is written in black and white, the contract will be broken when faced with huge benefits.

Otherwise, the king of a country would not have been so angry that he vomited blood because the things agreed in black and white were not fulfilled, and finally became powerless.

Rong Shen, "Then how do you want me to prove it?"

Xie Chunchao stood up and walked to Rong Shen. She stretched out her white hand and pinched Rong Shen's chin, then gave Rong Shen a pill.

She smiled and said, "This is the secret medicine of my Chu country. If you break the promise, you will definitely be poisoned and die."

"If you die, there will be no heirs in the Xia Kingdom. The only one who can take the throne is my child. Then all the Xia Kingdom will be under my control."

Xie Chunchao told him everything she wanted to do and her plans.

She should actually hide herself and cheat on him, but she doesn't want to.

But these words only had two words in Rong Shen's ears - child.

His eyes were surprised, "Chaochao, have you agreed to marry me? Are you going to give me a child?"

"That's great." He said, "I knew you had me in your heart."

Seeing that her threat was ineffective, Xie Chunchao released his chin in disgust and said, "Did you hear clearly? If you don't fulfill your promise, I will kill you."

"Take it if you want it."

Xie Chunchao ignored him. Rong Shen suppressed the ecstasy in his heart, but he couldn't suppress the corners of his mouth.

He smiled and asked, "Does Chao Chao go to Sheng Kingdom to disrupt Sheng Kingdom?"

"Yes." Xie Chunchao said, "Sheng Jiajun is unfathomable. With him in Sheng State, he will definitely be a strong enemy in the future. If he dies, we can defeat Sheng State with twice the result with half the effort."

The smile on Rong Shen's lips got bigger. He knew that Chao Chao would not like that guy.

"If we want to disrupt Shengguo, there is one more person we have to guard against."
