In the main tent of the Chinese army, Li Zhenhe and his men were talking and laughing.
If Gobard, Ma Hui, Rachel and others saw this scene, even if they knew that Li Zhen was using busy as an excuse to avoid seeing it, they would definitely keep cursing in their hearts.
There is no trace of busyness in this situation.
Lu Shaochuan said with a smile: "President, that old guy Gobard went back to discuss with the envoys from other countries. It is estimated that it will not take long before there will be results. This time, the foreign dog came to the door himself." Yes, we must make the lions open their mouths and let them spit out more money and food."
Li Zhen smiled and said: "It is necessary to blackmail the eight countries, but you have to pay attention to the method, otherwise, they will not be able to accept it, and they will go all out and withdraw to the sea. We will just beat the odds and get nothing."
Lu Shaochuan's eyes rolled and he asked: "What do the president have in mind?"
Li Zhen smiled but did not answer.
Liu Jintang said solemnly: "President, the Eight-Nation Allied Forces have been defeated. We are about to fight Xi Changzhen. Judging from Xi Changzhen's method of dealing with the Eight-Nation Allied Forces, this is a man who knows military affairs. His methods are quite powerful and cannot be underestimated."
Li Zhen said: "Don't worry, I can spare it."
His eyes narrowed slightly, not letting Brother Xi Changzhen escape this time.
"Report, Princess Ruan wants to see you."
Outside the camp, the voices of soldiers were heard.
Li Zhen said: "Please,."
After the words fell, the tent door curtain rolled up, and Ye Chengzhong and Ruan Lele walked in together.
Ruan Lele looked haggard, with a look of sadness on her face. She was the last surviving member of the Ruan family. Because of her negligence, because she believed the words of the envoys from the eight countries, Ruan Mingde was killed in the rebellion. This was her fault. Ah, these days, Ruan Lele's heart is filled with regret, and he hates himself for why he believed in the Eight Kingdoms.
If he did not believe the envoys from the eight countries, Ruan Mingde would not have been killed. Ruan Lele walked to the center of the tent, knelt down with a plop, and knelt down with his head on the ground.
Li Zhen raised his eyebrows and said, "Princess Lele, what do you mean? Get up quickly."
While speaking, Li Zhen motioned to Ye Chengzhong and asked Ye Chengzhong to help Ruan Lele up.
However, Ruan Lele just couldn't get up.
Li Zhen said in a deep voice: "Since you won't get up, don't say anything and go out by yourself."
Ruan Lele stood up after hearing this, looking humble.
With an apologetic expression on her face, she said loudly: "At the end of last year, the capital of our Ruan dynasty was captured by Xi Changzhen and Xi Yinglong. My brother was killed, my relatives were slaughtered, the country was destroyed, and the family was destroyed. I brought Mingde to Beijing to ask for help. The President helped to restore the country, and the President wholeheartedly agreed and led troops south to prepare for our restoration. However, I listened to the foreigners and abandoned the President’s selfless help. This is Lele’s fault, and I ask the President to forgive me.”
She bowed and apologized for the mistakes she had made.
Immediately, Ruan Lele continued: "Today, Lele once again shamelessly begged the president to send troops to help Lele defeat Xi Changzhen and Xi Yinglong and take revenge. Lele only wants the heads of the thieves leader Xi Yinglong and Xi Changzhen. As long as the president is willing to help, Lele Le is willing to hand over the Ruan family to the President and ask the President to help Le Le eradicate the leader of the thieves and avenge my Ruan family."
On the way back to the military camp, Ruan Lele had already thought things through.
Ruan Mingde was killed, and the last bloodline of the Ruan family was severed, leaving a country in a mess. Even if Ruan Lele took over, it would be difficult to run it. Besides, Ruan Lele has no interest in power and his family is gone. What's the point of restoring the country at this moment? Ruan Lele no longer has any thoughts of reviving the country, and only wants to avenge his dead relatives.
Therefore, Ruan Lele came up with the idea of giving the Ruan family to Li Zhen. She believed that even though Li Zhen was angry with her for leaving earlier, he would still agree to send troops to help.
Li Zhen was surprised after hearing this.
Immediately, Li Zhen also understood Ruan Lele's state of mind.
Li Zhen thought carefully about how to deal with this matter. Lu Shaochuan and Liu Jintang were sitting below, but they were waiting impatiently. They repeatedly signaled Li Zhen with their eyes to agree, so that they could easily expand their territory. Is there anything else worth considering? All you need to do is agree directly and talk about it later if you have any questions.
Ruan Lele waited with pear blossoms in the rain, feeling very anxious.
She couldn't guess what Li Zhen was thinking, and she didn't know what Li Zhen was hesitating about. Ruan Lele reached out and gently tugged on Ye Chengzhong's clothes, signaling Ye Chengzhong to speak for her. Ye Chengzhong was suddenly enlightened and said immediately: " President, Lele sincerely offers the whole of Vietnam and only seeks revenge for his dead relatives."
Li Zhen said: "Princess Lele, I can agree, but there are two conditions."
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone present was stunned.
This is really awesome.
They handed over the great Vietnam to you, but you still have conditions. It seems that you don’t necessarily want this piece of territory, including Ruan Lele. I feel quite strange in my heart. I have never seen a country given away, and the other party still has to do it. He only accepted it if the conditions were given. However, Ruan Lele already had the idea that as long as he wanted revenge, he would accept anything else, so he nodded.
Li Zhen looked serious and said in a deep voice: "First, I need your cooperation in the next matters involving Vietnam. Even if you are willing to give Vietnam to me, many things still require your intervention."
"Okay, I'm willing to cooperate."
Ruan Lele agreed without hesitation.
Li Zhen continued: "Second, I will do my best in this battle, but I cannot guarantee that I will be able to kill Xi Changzhen and Xi Yinglong. What if they escape somewhere? Of course, what I guarantee is that even if they escape, I will continue to hunt for you in other places. This is the most critical condition. If you cannot accept this condition, then I have no choice but to take over Vietnam because I cannot guarantee that I will be able to kill Xi Changzhen and Xi Yinglong. , this needs to be made clear.”
Ruan Lele said: "The President is an honest gentleman. The conditions mentioned are for my own benefit. I agree to them all. I only hope that the President can do his best to eliminate Xi Yinglong."
Li Zhen changed the topic and asked: "Princess Lele, I would like to ask a question."
Li Zhen's eyes fell on Ye Chengzhong and he asked calmly: "After Xi Changzhen and Xi Yinglong are dealt with, what are Princess Lele's plans? Should she follow us northward, or stay in Vietnam."
Upon hearing this, Ye Chengzhong cast a grateful look at Li Zhen.
These words were undoubtedly asked to help him.
Ruan Lele pondered for a while and said: "Lele only thinks about revenge now and has not thought about other things. After Xi Changzhen and Xi Yinglong are solved, we will consider other things."
In one sentence, he answered Li Zhen.
Ye Chengzhong sighed softly in his heart, slightly disappointed.
Li Zhen nodded and did not continue to ask. He waved his hand for Ye Chengzhong to take Ruan Lele down. Soon after Ye Chengzhong left, soldiers came to report: "President, envoys from the eight countries want to see you."
"Please." Li Zhen said with a solemn expression and waved his hands.
